5020 Poplar Level Rd encroachment permit denied for ALPR camera

Flock Safety, working with Louisville Metro PD, applied to install one solar-powered ALPR camera on a 12-foot Flock pole in the sidewalk/curb lane along Naomi Drive (between Poplar Level Road and Norene Lane) for the property at 5020 Poplar Level Rd; the parcel owner is M H F & O LLC. The plan called for digging a 2' x 2' hole, mounting the camera, restoring grass and removing excess debris, with work vans parked off-street — Melinda Calderon is listed as the permitting manager. The permit was denied after reviewers noted the application address didn’t match the map, traffic controls weren’t shown for the sidewalk/curb work, and the restoration plan lacked a timeframe and removal of BUD marks, so the project is on hold until those items are clarified.
