The Alexandria City Council met to discuss a range of city planning, infrastructure, and community development topics. A major focus was a presentation on the city's Public Works facility study, which analyzed potential locations and funding options for a new facility. After reviewing multiple sites, the council favored the Constable Drive location, adjacent to the new City Hall, due to its accessibility and operational benefits. The estimated cost for the new facility is $6.3 million, with potential funding sources including land sales and state funding. The council also discussed ongoing traffic safety concerns on Four Mile Road, where local residents expressed concerns over large tractor-trailers causing road damage and safety hazards. Residents requested the city’s support in urging state transportation officials to restrict truck traffic on the road. In other business, the council approved an ordinance establishing zoning regulations for medical cannabis businesses, limiting dispensaries to highway commercial zones and other facilities to industrial zones. Additional approvals included the disposal of outdated city equipment, the sale of a police command bus to Northern Kentucky SWAT, and the appointment of Linda Vogelpohl to the Alexandria Board of Ethics. Updates were provided on the city’s pickleball court project, expected to be completed by June 15, and preliminary discussions on next year’s budget have begun. The meeting concluded with the council entering an executive session, with no formal action taken afterward.
