Sky's Academy Preschool—applicant Rodnika Floyd of Skys Academy LLC—has submitted a Conditional Use Permit to operate a child care center for more than 12 children at 608 South 20th Street. The property, owned by Lewis D. Richards, is a tiny 0.0566-acre single-family lot; the application is submitted with $610 in fees paid, and the project describes the preschool as a small, flexible environment offering quality care to families.
Atkemix Ten Inc has applied to remove an Arcadis air scrubber at 6100 Camp Ground Rd, with crews planning to use cranes to lower the 47-foot tower, lift it from its foundation and lay it horizontally for on-site dismantling. The wrecking permit lists a project value estimated at $85,000 and shows several required items still pending—utility sign-offs from LG&E and AT&T plus demolition forms, site photos and notification affidavits—so the teardown won’t happen until those boxes are checked.
Biggby Coffee is wiring a new coffee shop at 3737 Diann Marie Rd, with Warren Electric Inc (licensed pro Scott Bowling) installing the commercial electrical work for owner BHUMESH LLC under an issued permit. The project is listed as new work with an estimated cost of $55,558 for a 200-amp service, and the record includes a notice requiring a recent private hydrant inspection, a minimum 4-foot landscaping clearance from that hydrant, and no grease-laden vapor cooking without an approved commercial hood.
