NEIGHBORHOOD Andover Gets a New Chance

Councilmembers and NASCAR at Shriners

Councilmembers Angela Evans and Preston Worley spent the day at Shriners Hospital with NASCAR driver David Ragan (No. 38) last month. The kids enjoyed a friendly remote control car race with Ragan in the parking lot of the hospital.

Ragan was in town for the Kentucky Speedway and wanted to utilize his down time to give back to the community.

Anderson Communities has submitted a re-zoning request for the now defunct Andover Golf Course. The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Council voted Monday, July 8 to approve the zoning requests for almost 18 acres.

The development plan is to create 70 townhomes on the driving range and an additional 18 townhomes in the parking area. The developers have talked about turning the clubhouse into a restaurant that would potentially be open to the public. Anderson Communities has engaged Jimmy Nash Homes as the builder for this project.

Some neighbors have expressed concern about the proposed development, citing the fact that they were initially told only 36 townhomes would be built on the golf course.

Additional concerns were raised about stormwater and runoff issues that can occur on the course during heavy rainfall.

Hamburg Senior Living Development Hits Snag

Urban County Council recently voted 8 to 4 against Clover Communities’ requested rezoning on Todds Road for a proposed senior community.

The request was to turn 8.3 acres of urban agriculture into a 125-unit, threestory. It would have been located behind Baptist Church at Andover.

The Urban County Council in April had voted 8 to 1 for a preliminary approval.

“The staff remained concerned about the massing of the structure,” said city planning manager Traci Wade. “Planning staff also had concerns about the lack of buffering between the proposed senior apartments and the surrounding neighborhoods.”

Nick Nicholson, attorney for Clover Communities, said the underutilized vacant property could be used without displacing current users.

Councilmember Preston Worley, whose district includes Todds Road, said he supports using underutilized land and creating more senior housing, but says, “I struggle with this because I think it’s a need in our community, but I don’t think this particular zone change respects the character of the neighborhood.”

Council who voted in favor of the zone change are: Vice Mayor Steve Kay, Angela Evans, Bill Farmer, and Jennifer Mossotti.

Those voting against were: James Brown, Chuck Ellinger II, Susan Lamb, Josh McCurn, Richard Moloney, Kathy Plomin, Jennifer Reynolds, and Preston Worley.

Hamburg Shoplifting Sting a Success

Lexington Police Department reported that a recent “three-day operation in the Hamburg shopping area and Richmond Road corridor resulted in charges against more than three dozen people. $6800 in stolen merchandise was recovered, including power tools, clothing, cosmetics, cookware, and pet food.”

TOUR OF REMODELED HOMES

Home Style

A recent bathroom remodel by J&R Construction

Inside the 2019 Tour of Remodeled Homes

L

ooking for a little inspiration before you renovate?

BIA’s annual Tour of Remodeled Homes is your chance to gather ideas and check out all those HGTV ideas you’ve dreamed about in action before you start your next project.

Homeowners throughout Lexington will open their doors to showcase their professionally remodeled homes, including whole-house remodels, the latest in bathroom design, kitchen transformations, outdoor living and more.

The Tour represents an opportunity for homeowners (and prospective homeowners) to view the work of licensed contractors and remodelers. The Remodeler for each project will be present at the homes to answer questions. The Tour isn’t a house hunting venture (though it’s a great way to get a feel for a variety of neighborhoods), think of it as more of an idea expo.

There are a dozen homes on the 2019 Tour of Remodeled Homes from some of Lexington’s top professional remodeling companies, including Anderson and Rodgers Construction, BACK Construction, Brill and Company, Conrad Construction, Griggs Homes, J & R Construction, Keitz Construction, Vimont Builders and more.

Guests are invited to participate in a self-guided starting at noon on Saturday, August 24. All homes are open from noon to 5 pm on Saturday, August 24 and Sunday, August 25. Admission is $10. Tickets are available at each house on the tour.

Visit BIACentralKY.com for more information.

We stepped behind the scenes of this year’s tour with J&R construction and Keitz Construction to learn more about what we could expect from this year’s tour.

Browns Mill and Parklawn by J&R Construction

J & R owner Jimmy McKinney has overseen a “small and family oriented” team serving central Kentucky for over 15 years (with additional offices in Owensboro).

The company specializes in a variety of remodeling ventures including kitchens, bathrooms, additions, decks, and basement finishing.

McKinney has great advice for homeowners considering a remodel, and recommends asking a lot of questions to find the right fit.

Ask your potential remodeler if they guarantee their work. McKinney recommends that “The contractor should guarantee his work for at least one year from date of completion. They should also include any warranties from the material used if applicable.”

Homeowners should always find out very early in the process who will be in charge of your job. McKinney advises that homeowners “make sure the contractor or his crew is on the job whenever work is being performed—especially if sub-contractors will be used, unless it has been communicated that the sub-contractors do not need to be supervised. (In some cases, sub-contractors come to do work without a company representative The McKinney Family

TOUR OF REMODELED HOMES present.) If you want the contractor or one of the crew there at all times, expect to pay for this service. The responsible party must be familiar with every aspect of your project. You cannot be worried about what is going on when you are not there.”

He also recommends asking for written references, and says “home remodeling and building is a very personal process. The contractor you hire will be part of your home life for several weeks or months, so it’s important to make sure that your personalities work well together.”

J&R Construction is featuring two remodels this year at 490 Browns Mill Road and 1145 Parklawn Drive.

The remodel on Browns Mill Road will feature a bathroom remodel of a house built in 1996. Everything in the bathroom was updated to give it a clean, white, modern look. Bertch cabinets were used with a furniture style toe-kick for the vanity. Atop the new granite countertops are two counter top cabinet towers that were installed on each side to provide extra storage.

Greenbrier Remodel by Keitz Construction

After working in the residential construction industry for nearly a decade, Nick Keitz made the decision to venture out on his own and began Keitz Construction, LLC in 2008. Since then, he has developed an extensive portfolio that includes a number of projects ranging from kitchen and bath renovations to additions and whole house remodels.

He currently serves as President-Elect of the Building Industry Association of Central Kentucky and was also named 2017 and 2018 Remodeler Member of the Year.

Keitz has participated through the local Home Builders Association and BIA Cares in assisting with several community projects, most recently with the construction of Amya’s House — a brand new accessible home built to accommodate local teenager Amya Catching. A longtime member of Calvary Baptist Church, he has also been heavily involved in the Build-A-Bed project, a mission project that builds beds from scratch to provide

for local children in need.

Keitz Construction is featuring one of their remodels in the Greenbrier area at 1709 Bahama Road on this year’s Tour.

With this remodel, Keitz Construction worked on an open floor plan, newly created mudroom and laundry area, new kitchen area with an open concept, builtins, and a half bath.

One pro tip from Keitz is “don’t try to do all the projects in one day.”

The 2019 Tour of Remodeled Homes features 12 beautiful home remodel projects from 10 of Lexington’s top professional remodeling companies – all are members of the Building Industry Association of Central KY Remodelers Council.

Behind the Scenes at BCE New year, new students, and new school in our neighborhood

By Claire Ramsay

I

n mid-2018, Fayette County Public Schools announced that our neighborhood would be getting a new elementary school in the Fall of 2019.

And now, area students are preparing to walk through the doors for the first time at Brenda Cowan Elementary.

The big question on parents’ minds is, of course, “will it be completed in time for the students’ first day?!”

Construction is proceeding quickly, but as we toured the grounds in mid-July, a few finishing touches still needed to happen.

As new Principal Joshua Williams and Assistant Principal Jessica Greene showed us around, you could feel their excitement for the new elementary school.

The construction team had just finished the flooring in the cafeteria and neither of them had seen it yet.

Greene was so impressed by the final product, she kept repeating “It looks so good!”

You could feel their pride and their commitment to making this the best elementary school FCPS has to offer.

Neither of them are new to “opening” schools. Both were around in different capacities when it came to opening the brand new high school in the Hamburg area, Frederick Douglass High School.

Principal Williams began his career in the early 2000s at Lafayette High School teaching world history and government.

Greene was the Director of Choral Activities and VPA (Visual and Performing Arts) teacher at Frederick Douglass High School.

Williams remains inspired by being surrounded by young minds and the possibility of shaping them into something great.

He’s continuously amazed to meet

“our young scholars,” saying, “They are all so eager to learn, explore, and question the world around them. There is nothing more fulfilling than watching an elementary student learn to read. Each day we have the opportunity to make an impact and change the trajectory of the lives of our students.”

Other than the school’s namesake, BCE is special to the community due to its four main pillars of education: 1. Arts Integration — Teaching the students through the lens of the arts. Through their special area they offer the same pathways as SCAPA. The special area and itinerant classes include Dance, Drama, Music, Piano Lab, Creative Writing, Art, Orchestra, Band.

2. Global Competency — Teaching the students to be aware of the world around them. Teaching the students how to appreciate and recognize the different cultures around us.

3. 3rd Grade Reading Pledge — The schools commitment to ensure that all of the students leave 3rd grade reading at or above grade level.

4. Service Leadership — Service to self and others.

B

oth Williams and Greene want to teach BCE students that it’s not always about numbers or letters, but students can also be taught through song or creative thinking.

“The arts routinely open a world of creativity through movement, song, and other forms of expression not always fostered through traditional educational methods,” says Greene. “Arts integration is an approach to teaching in which students can demonstrate an understanding of core curriculum through an art form. This ability to create and connect allows students to internalize the value of what they are learning in all classrooms in a way that is meaningful and lasting.”

Some educators might find it nerveracking or daunting when it comes to opening a new school, but not Williams.

He saw this new elementary school as an opportunity to be part of something new. Williams took the position of principal because he wants to serve this community in the best way he knows how and also the idea of incorporating arts into the curriculum. With the first year at Brenda Cowan Elementary beginning, Williams is most excited about meeting the students and seeing his

BACK TO SCHOOL fellow teachers in action.

“Since being named the Principal, I have spent the majority of my time planning and preparing for a school that embraces the district’s mission.

I have had the opportunity to meet and collaborate with a variety of great community stakeholders.”

With construction coming to a close and the final touches being added, Principal Williams’ favorite part about the school is….”EVERYTHING!” He is most proud of the fact that the school was named after Brenda Cowan, the first black female Lieutenant in the fire department. “Naming the school after her was our unique way to honor and celebrate the life of Brenda and to recognize all the servicemen and women that put their lives on the line every day in service to others.”

He has had the privilege of meeting several firefighters who personally knew Brenda and they all spoke about how much she loved the kids and her commitment to service leadership.

It can be scary or stressful for students going to a new school.

Williams has one piece of advice for all incoming students, “I would encourage our students to take advantage of this opportunity to be actively engaged with other students and faculty who share the same interests and passions. We have a variety of opportunities for our students to be engaged from a plethora of clubs, extracurricular programs and organizations, to our arts focus and YMCA partnership.“ Brenda Cowan Elementary hosts a ribbon cutting for the community on Monday, August 12 at 10 am. This event features guest speakers from the fire department and family members of Brenda Cowan.

Sharing time with the staff, faculty, and students is at the heart of what he considers his philosophy of education.

“I believe that all kids deserve an equal shot. I believe that we have to be caring.

We have to be compassionate,” Rose said. “We have to work with all of our stakeholders, our community partners, with our parents with our staff. We have to be nurturing and we have to provide the best instruction in the classroom and all kids deserve that no matter what the background.”

ith a new school opening and some redistricting in Fayette County, there will be plenty of changes for Athens-Chilesurg faculty and students going in the new year.

“There are awesome teachers here.

Some were transferred to other schools,” Rose said. “So students might see some familiar faces, but they might not be teaching the same grade that they had been teaching. Hopefully, they’re going to just see a whole new group of welcoming and smiling and energetic and enthusiastic faces when they walk in the building.”

Rose hopes all the teachers will work to build a connection with the students.

“I expect teachers to greet students and to talk to students and to be visible,” Rose said. “I think we can start our day out that way. It makes the day so much better.”

SENIOR LIVING Proposed Hamburg Senior Living development stalls

Lexington Fayette Urban County Council recently voted 8 to 4 against Clover Communities’ requested rezoning on Todds Road for a proposed senior community.

The request was to turn 8.3 acres of urban agriculture into a 125-unit, threestory community located behind Baptist Church at Andover.

The Urban County Council in April had voted 8 to 1 for a preliminary approval.

Councilmember Preston Worley, whose district includes Todds Road, said he supports using underutilized land and creating more senior housing, but says, “I struggle with this because I think it’s a need in our community, but I don’t think this particular zone change respects the character of the neighborhood.”

FOOD

Take the BLT up a notch

BY TOM YATES

crisp lettuce, and ripe tomatoes on toasted bread for a classic summer B.L.T..

Better yet, take it up a notch and replace the crispy bacon with bacon jam for a slammin’ heirloom tomato homespun home run.

Scoot on over B.L.T., there’s a new kid in town.

I

t’s raining tomatoes. After a sleepy start due to all the heavy spring rains, ripe heirlooms have finally crashed our farmers markets in dizzying waves. Lost in the spell of the sultry purples, perky greens, vibrant reds, carefree oranges, demure whites, and come hither hybrids, the challenge of choosing is real. With varying sugar to acid ratios, all the colors and varieties bring something different to the table. When it comes to summer tomatoes, we love what we love. Taste, like beauty, lies in the eye of the beholder. I’m easy. Very easy. Whether sweet, tart, ugly, gnarled, or drop dead gorgeous, I adore them all.

They flaunt, I fall. Win. With so many tomatoes, kick back, and enjoy the ride.

Really, nothing tops the simplistic beauty of a sliced and salted ripe-to-thecore sun-kissed summer tomato. Or, for a throwback to childhood, toss a few sliced tomatoes on cheap supermarket white bread with a mayo smear and take a bite. Not feeling it? More is more. Slap crunchy bacon,

Bacon Jam, Basil, and Heirloom Tomato Sandwich.

The B.B.T. Bacon Jam. Bacon jam just might be the beacon for all that is good and right in this world.

Small effort, big payoff.

After heating a large cast iron skillet over a medium flame, I sliced 1 lb Stone Cross Farm smoked bacon into 3/4” pieces and tossed them into the skillet.

When the bacon started to crisp, I

scooped it out with a slotted spoon, set it aside. I reserved 1 Tablespoon bacon fat in the hot skillet, drained the remaining fat, and added 1 cup chopped Boyle County Red Bull candy onions. After sweating the onions until they turned translucent, I scattered 4 minced garlic cloves into the skillet. Just before the garlic browned, I deglazed the skillet with 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar and 1/3 cup brewed coffee, scraped the tasty bacon bits from the bottom of the pan, and I added 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup Oberholtzer’s sorghum, 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and cracked black pepper. After tumbling the reserved bacon into the molten mix, I brought the jam to a boil, reduced it to a low simmer, covered the skillet, and let it bubble away for 1 1/2 hours, stirring and adding a splash of water from time to time.

When jammy enough, I pulled the bacon jam from the heat, scraped it into a container, and set it aside.

Summer love.

Heirloom Tomatoes.

Toasted bread.

Bacon jam.

Build it and they will come.

After slathering bacon jam onto toasted Bluegrass Bakery Black Pepper Parmesan Bread, I feathered fresh garden basil into the sticky jam, piled wet juicy slices of Casey County, Pulaski County, Fayette County heirloom tomatoes over the basil, drizzled the jewels with extra virgin olive, and finished with a flurry of flaked sea salt, cracked black pepper, and snipped garden chives.

Green Zebra. Lemon Boy. Mountain Trash Red. Cherokee Purple. Big White. Kentucky Beefsteak. Orange Persimmon.

Purple Plum. Taste the colors.

PETS Dog Days Aren’t Over Yet As the summer heat sets in, it is important to keep pets in mind. During this extremely hot summer, it is best to keep your loved one at home or not spend as much time outside as usual.

Below are some helpful tips from Lexington Emergency Management for dogs, cats, and small pets to keep them cool during the dog days of summer.

• ALWAYS have cool water accessible • Make frozen treats to help cool your pet off after a long walk • Provide a shaded area that fully covers your dog or cat for best protection

• NEVER leave your pet in the vehicle unattended. The temperature in your car can be 20 degrees hotter than it is outside • To check the pavement, put the palm of your hand on the pavement and hold it there for 10 seconds. If it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for your dog’s paws • Walk your pet during cooler times of the day such as early morning or late evening For more heat safety tips, visit bereadylexington.com.
