Committee Postpones Phelps Property Plan Pending Waiver Information
The Lexington Planning Commission Subdivision Committee has decided to postpone the review of the Phelps property development plan, MJTP 25-42, to gather more information regarding several waiver requests and conditions. This decision was made during a meeting on September 4, 2025, where committee members expressed the need for additional details on grading, drainage, and the unique layout of the property, which includes private streets and surrounding right-of-way.

Key discussions highlighted concerns about the design of crosswalks and the landscape berm, with committee members noting that certain features may require variances or waivers due to dimensional changes. The committee emphasized the importance of understanding how stormwater management will be handled, particularly in relation to the culvert at Richmond Road.

The unanimous vote to postpone the plan reflects the committee's commitment to ensuring that all aspects of the development are thoroughly evaluated before moving forward. This decision underscores the ongoing efforts to balance development needs with community safety and infrastructure considerations. The committee will reconvene to review the additional information once it is provided, ensuring that all stakeholders are adequately informed and involved in the planning process.
