Why does it take so long to build something in Louisville?
Manage episode 422477430 series 3191623
Louisville Business First set out to put some of the city's development issues under the microscope in a recent special feature we call Opportunity Louisville.
And we talk about those issues and some of our coverage on this week's Access Louisville podcast. Reporters Michael L. Jones and Piper Hansen, who have led our coverage on these issues, are on the show to talk about what they've learned. A key takeaway seems to be that both developers and even some city officials seem to agree that changes are necessary on the permitting and rezoning fronts. And the problems we have in our land development codes are affecting both commercial and residential development. That hurts Louisville in a couple of different ways.
Of course the podcast is just to tip of the iceberg. If you really want to get into heart of the coverage check out the links below:
