  • "Residents in parts of the Old Louisville neighborhood are being asked to be patient as the city prepares to convert two major thoroughfares into two-way streets. In April, Councilman David James, D-6, introduced an ordinance converting portions of First and Brooks streets into two-way strips. The Louisville Metro Department of Public Works and Assets is now moving forward with the change, which is scheduled to take place over the weekend of July 29." [WFPL [4]]
  • "The board of the Kentucky Capital Development Corporation voted to remove its director, Ralph Tharp, for undisclosed reasons last week. Tharp was the man behind the recent push to construct a commuter rail line running between Lexington and Louisville." [Barefoot and Progressive [5]]
