🔥 Top Scoops in Louisville, KY

Livin Lou Properties LLC, owner of the short-term rental at 1305 E Washington St, is the subject of an open zoning enforcement case after neighbors reported back-to-back weekend parties — the most recent allegedly ended with three people shot. Complainants say house parties shouldn’t be allowed at STRs and are asking for enforcement and consequences, and the city has opened an investigation into the rental and neighborhood safety concerns.

An Emergency Order Demolition has been issued for the vacant former residence at 221 North 19th Street, owned by Gregory Wafford, with Aesthetic Industrial Contracting, Inc. listed as the abatement and waste-hauling contractor and work scheduled from June 23 to July 23, 2026. Because the permit treats all demolition debris as Regulated Asbestos-Containing Material (RACM), crews must minimize disturbance, use wet-method removal, containerize and promptly dispose of materials (no track vehicles on debris), and will be addressing RACM across the 976-square-foot, single-story structure.

Louisville Metro has issued an emergency asbestos permit for demolition at 223 N 19th St, a vacant 1,300-square-foot former residence owned by Williams Charles Raymond, with work scheduled June 23–July 23, 2026. The permit allows Aesthetic Industrial Contracting, Inc. to leave regulated asbestos-containing material (RACM) in place during the emergency demolition but requires crews to minimize disturbance, keep materials wet, containerize and promptly haul roughly seven cubic yards daily to WM Outer Loop Landfill—demolition debris must be treated as RACM and no track vehicles are allowed on the debris, so crews will be taking extra precautions.
