Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Friday, June 27th, 2025.

Today in Lexington we start with some city hall news that affects our students and teachers. Senate Bill 181 goes into effect today, setting new limits on communication between teachers and students. This means updated policies across Fayette County schools and new training for staff, all aimed at keeping interactions transparent and safe. The district says they’re working with parents to answer questions as everyone adjusts.

Weatherwise, we wake to mild summer temps with a chance of scattered showers in the afternoon. If you’re making plans outdoors, like heading to the Pride Festival this evening on Oliver Lewis Way, pack an umbrella just in case. Looking ahead, the rain tapers off by Saturday, so Saturday’s MSEDA dressage show at The Park should see better skies, and Sunday looks sunny and dry.

There’s energy in the air as Lexington continues to celebrate our 250th anniversary with “Come Home Month.” The city’s buzzing with special events. Families are reconnecting, and visitors are filling our local restaurants and shops. If you haven’t picked up your Host Package from the Lexington Visitors Center on Main, supplies are still available and include city guides and tour maps—perfect for showing off our hometown to friends.

On the job front, Lexington’s unemployment is holding steady just above three percent, with healthcare and hospitality leading the hiring surge. Several new restaurants are opening near Chevy Chase and downtown, adding dozens of new positions. Conversely, a longtime bookstore on North Limestone is set to close its doors next month, citing rising rents. Local real estate remains competitive, with the median home sale now hovering around 350 thousand dollars and quick turnarounds for houses in the Kenwick and Hamburg areas.

In health news, UK HealthCare and local partners are focusing on innovative ways to make Kentucky’s kids healthier, shaping new neighborhood-based programs that other parts of the state want to replicate. This community-driven approach means resources are better matched to what families need, and local leaders are optimistic about what it means for Lexington’s future health outcomes.

Sports fans, our high school baseball teams wrapped up tournament play this week, with Henry Clay clinching a tight win over Lafayette in extra innings. And in college sports, the Wildcats’ training camps are drawing crowds, with top recruits sharing the field for early summer workouts.

Turning to public safety, in the last 24 hours, police responded to a burglary near Tates Creek and made one arrest. No injuries were reported, but officers remind us to keep doors locked and report anything suspicious. Elsewhere, animal control responded to a sad incident involving neglect in the Meadowthorpe area, leading to charges and a renewed push for responsible pet ownership.

Before we go, here’s a feel-good story: neighborhood volunteers came together along Elm Tree Lane yesterday, building a free library and planting flowers for kids in the area, all part of a summer reading kickoff. Their spirit is a reminder of what makes Lexington special.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Thursday, June 26, 2025.

We wake up to another day of sweltering heat as our city sits squarely in a major heat wave, with temperatures already pushing past ninety degrees. City officials have activated emergency measures, opening cooling centers throughout Lexington. LG and E and KU are urging us all to conserve energy and stay hydrated. Officials remind everyone, especially those in vulnerable neighborhoods and the elderly, to check on neighbors and know the locations of nearby cooling stations. This heat is expected to stick around through the weekend, so plan accordingly if you are heading out for any of the big events in town.

In breaking news, Lexington police have made arrests following two shooting incidents over the past several days. On Liberty Road, a woman was hospitalized with non-life-threatening wounds after being shot late last night, while an incident on Meadowsweet Lane earlier this week left a man recovering from injuries sustained inside his vehicle. Investigations are ongoing, but authorities say there is no threat to the wider community, and additional patrols have been dispatched in these neighborhoods.

Turning to city hall, work has officially begun at the 200-acre Legacy Business Park near Hamburg Pavilion. This project is expected to bring about 1,700 jobs to our region in the next few years, delivering a shot in the arm for Lexington’s job market and driving economic growth. Meanwhile, local organizations are adapting as artificial intelligence transforms the labor landscape, with reports of computer and engineering grads seeing fewer entry-level openings than last year.

In the spirit of “Come Home Month,” Lexington continues to mark its 250th anniversary all through June. Our historic streets are alive this week with everything from the Railbird Music Festival’s sounds to SoulFeast Week’s flavors and city pride events. Visitors and locals alike can still pick up free host packages at the Lexington Visitors Center downtown, jam-packed with anniversary keepsakes and guides for exploring the Bluegrass.

Business-wise, the Kentucky Oil and Gas Association Annual Meeting is underway at the Campbell House on South Broadway today. Industry leaders are discussing the future of energy, from enhanced oil recovery to new market opportunities in helium and automation. Elsewhere, we are seeing steady interest in real estate, especially around the Southland Drive corridor, though rising mortgage rates have slowed some first-time buyers.

In schools, the Fayette County School Board’s budget committee met this week to review district finances, focused on addressing classroom needs as the next school year approaches. Athletically, Lexington’s high school baseball and softball teams closed out their seasons with strong playoff runs, earning regional honors for sportsmanship and skill.

Finally, a feel-good moment: the new amphitheater stage at Gatton Park has been officially named the CommonSpirit Health Stage, a nod to Saint Joseph Health’s generosity and a space set to host free community concerts and theater evenings once it opens later this summer.

That wraps our pulse on Lexington for today. Stay cool, look out for each other, and enjoy the best our city has to offer. This has been Lexington Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

On the business front, a few new shops and cafés have opened their doors on Limestone and Short streets. At the same time, a couple of long-time favorites, including a bakery on Chevy Chase, have announced closures.

The change is expected to support hundreds of new jobs in Lexington’s growing tech and healthcare sectors.

We begin with breaking news overnight. Lexington police are investigating a shooting on Liberty Road. Officers say a woman showed up at an out-of-county hospital in stable condition, and they are working to piece together what led to the incident. Investigators are asking anyone with information to come forward as they work to ensure safety in the area.

Turning to the weather, we’re waking up to mild summer temperatures with a chance of scattered showers through the afternoon. If you’re planning outdoor activities, you may want to pack an umbrella just in case. Forecasts show the warm weather should stick around into the weekend, giving us good conditions for local events.

City Hall has been busy this week discussing new zoning changes aimed at encouraging more affordable housing, which could have a real impact for families looking to buy or rent. On the job front, the market remains steady, with unemployment holding at around four percent. Several manufacturers in our industrial corridor have posted new openings, so it’s a good time to dust off the resume if you’re searching for work.

Real estate agents report that home sales have seen a slight bump this week, with the average home price in Fayette County hovering near three hundred fifteen thousand dollars. We’re also seeing more listings pop up in popular neighborhoods like Chevy Chase and Lansdowne as families get ready to move before the new school year.

Our top story this morning centers on a major policy change affecting emergency medical care in Kentucky. The federal government has rolled back a rule that required hospitals to provide emergency abortion procedures.
