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.
A lot is happening culturally this weekend. The Kentucky River Clean Sweep returns Saturday, inviting everyone down to the riverfront to help keep our waterways clean and enjoy some community spirit. Over at the convention center, Lexington is hosting the National AHEC Organization Conference, bringing in hundreds of healthcare professionals from around the country and adding some buzz downtown.
Music lovers have plenty to look forward to as the tenth annual Lipstick Wars Poetry Slam kicks off tonight, celebrating spoken word and creativity. If you’re looking for entertainment, there’s also live jazz at the Lyric and a family movie night in Woodland Park.
In local schools, congratulations are in order for the Henry Clay High School baseball team, who finished their season with a big win in last night’s city championship. The energy on their home field was contagious, and the team credits the community support for their success.
Wrapping up with a feel-good story, a group of residents on Eastland Parkway organized a neighborhood cookout for new families moving in this month. It’s these small acts that make Lexington feel like home.
That’s all for today. This has been Lexington Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
