Wood board fence was painted in its entirety 2018 and 2023 along the entrances to Leven and Black Walnut Blvd. The wood board fence along Black Walnut Blvd. entrance is intended to be evaluated for replacement 2028. Leven Blvd. evaluation is scheduled for 2031
Began 2018 replacing 1/2 dozen 24″ Stop Signs.
2019 Project was conceptualized
2020 Phase One was completed with all new Street Signs on Leven Blvd, New Information of Stop Ahead, and No Outlet plus No Solicitation Signs were started.
2021 Phase Two was initiated when New Information signs were completed along with converting 1/2 of all 24″ Stop Signs to required 30″ Stop Signs. All new Street Signs in Section 11 A & B, 12 and 13 were installed.
2022 Phase Two continued with 2/3rds of all new 25 MPH Speed Limit Children ~ Play Signs being installed and completion of converting 24″ Stop to 30″ Stop Signs.
2023 Phase Three was completed with the remaining 1/3rd of the new 25 MPH Speed Limit Children ~ Play Signs being installed.
A black four rail wood board fence was installed between Charleswood Forest and Cooper Farms on the open space off Leven Blvd. The purpose was to stop vehicles driving through the open space endangering pedestrians and/or hitting vehicles.
Radarsigns were purchased/implemented for four cut-through streets: Park Lake Drive, Cassidy Lane, Leven Blvd and Waycross Ave. None of these most highly traveled streets in Cooper Farms, met the city regulations for speed humps. Radar data is being shared with Patrol Officers. Their hourly compensation has been increased to attract certified officers for enforcement.
The area on either side of Park Lake Drive that Pennsylvania Run Creek passes through, started being bush hogged to allow for wildlife habitat. Given the complexity of acquiring people to continue bush hogging, those seven acres will be finished mowed a couple times during the growing season until bush hogging is viable.
Three easements near Cassidy Circle along with the boarder of basin off Samuel Long Way had brush and trees trimmed. Both WPA’s adjacent to Black Walnut Blvd and behind Top Walnut Ct. were authorized by Louisville Planning and Design Services to remove invasive plant material.
