An ordinance (O-113-25, Case No. 24ZONE0113) is moving through the Louisville Metro Council to change the zoning of approximately 2.2 acres at 8915 Old Bardstown Road from R-4 Single-Family Residential to C-2 Commercial. This change facilitates the development of a self-storage facility, comprising two mini-warehouse buildings totaling 46,870 SF and providing 400 self-storage units. The project requires the demolition of an existing single-family home and includes a Conditional Use Permit, waivers, and a variance, along with a Detailed District Development plan with binding elements. The Planning Commission initially recommended approval on February 6, 2025, but the case was returned due to a notification error. Following a corrected second public hearing on April 10, 2025, the Planning Commission again recommended approval by an 8-0 vote.
