I hope this letter finds everyone enjoying a safe and happy holiday season. It was a pleasure to see old and new faces at our holiday social. The city council members and I look forward to seeing neighbors with their children and grandchildren every year.
I would like to thank everyone who called me or one of your council members to report the issues with your water bill. For those of you who are unaware, several residents received water bills indicating usage from 200-500% higher than average. Louisville Water Company has acknowledged this problem as a roll out glitch with the new water meters recently installed. Your bill should be corrected to reflect the average water usage. If your bill has not been corrected, please call their customer service line at (502) 583-6610. For those of you who hired a plumber to check for leaks that did not exist we have a public relations contact at Louisville Water who can assist as well. Please reach out to me or council
member Eric Shackleford so we can share that contact information.
Recently I received a call from a concerned resident regarding neighbors who do not pick up leaves at all each year and rather wait until the spring to do so. unfortunately, in this scenario leaves accumulated near a dryer vent causing fire concerns. I realize raking leaves is not a desirable task for anyone, but it is not fair to those who make the effort to have to endure unsafe or unpleasing aesthetics of those who don’t. Ordinance 92.03(H) prohibits the
accumulation of leaves on your property. If you feel you can’t perform this task, please contact me or a city council member and we can provide you with local lawn care resources.
I hope everyone has a great holiday season and a great 2024.
