Akridge, PE, Chief Engineer Louisville and Jefferson County Metropolitan Sewer District 700 West Liberty Street Louisville, KY 40203 June 30, 2017 Subject: 20-Year Comprehensive Facility Plan—Critical Repair and Reinvestment Plan Dear Ms. Akridge, The attached 20-Year Comprehensive Facility Plan, also referred to as the Louisville and Jefferson County Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) Critical Repair and Reinvestment Plan, represents MSD’s most ambitious planning effort in a decade. The 2-year effort reviewed the challenges our community faces now and in the future, identified practical solutions, and developed a roadmap to protect the health, economic vitality, and environment of our city. The recommendations in this Facility Plan are the result of careful evaluation by the Facility Plan Team, which includes some of the most experienced engineers in Louisville Metro. We believe that the recommendations presented in this Facility Plan are essential to maintaining reliable facilities that will allow MSD to fulfill its responsibility for safe, clean waterways and help preserve and promote our competitiveness as a city. One driver that led to Facility Plan development was a recognition that—for the past 10 years—MSD has focused much of its resources and investments on tackling the federally mandated undertaking to reduce sewer overflows. -

Louisville Historical League OHIO RIVER ISLANDS BY CHUCK PARRISH, HISTORIAN (RET) ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS LOUISVILLE DISTRICT Among over 80 Islands in the 981 mile flow of the Ohio River, there are eight of interest and historical significance in the Louisville area, including one no longer extant. Corn Island is perhaps the one with the most historical notoriety, and whose remains lie far beneath the waters formed by McAlpine Dam. It was located near the Kentucky bank out from the end of present day Twelfth Street. Originally dubbed Dunmore’s Island (for the Royal Governor of Virginia) by Thomas Bullitt’s surveying party in 1773, it was on this small island that George Rogers Clark camped with the soldiers he led on their way to engage the British and Indi- ans in the Northwest campaigns of the Revolutionary War. Presumably, the name is derived from the first crop of corn grown there in 1778. Stone quarrying and navigation improvement projects by the Corps of Engineers in the mid-late nineteenth century had removed nearly all of the island by the early 1900s. Likely the last photographs of the river that show Corn Island are those among the collections of The Filson Historical Society, dating ca. -
Greater Jeffersontown Historical Society Newsletter
GREATER JEFFERSONTOWN HISTORICAL SOCIETY NEWSLETTER August 2013 Vol. 11 Number 4 August 2013 Meeting The August meeting will be Monday, August 5, 2013. We will meet at 7:00 P.M. in the meeting room of the Jeffersontown Library at 10635 Watterson Trail. The Greater Jeffersontown Historical Society meetings are now held on the first Monday of the even numbered months of the year. Everyone is encouraged to attend to help guide and grow the Society. August Meeting - Lessons From Rosenwald Schools Julia Bache will discuss the Rosenwald School movement and how Julius Rosenwald, part owner of the Sears and Roebuck Company, and Booker T. Washington partnered together in the early 1900s to build over 5,000 schools. There were seven Rosenwald schools in Jefferson County and one of those was the Alexander-Ingram School in Jeffersontown. She will also speak about how to take part in historic preservation. Please visit Ms. Bache's work in the Jeffersontown Historical Museum. It will be displayed through noon on August 7th. Julia is a sixteen year old high school student who has recently taken an active stance in historic preservation as a part of her Girl Scout Gold Award Project. With the guidance of L. Martin Perry, she nominated the Buck Creek Rosenwald School to be on the National Register of Historic Places, becoming the first high school student in Kentucky to do so. She then helped educate the public about preservation through a traveling museum exhibit that she created in partnership with the National Trust for Historic Preservation. She has also been speaking to various audiences throughout Kentucky about preserving Rosenwald Schools. -

Scherer, MA Corn Island Archaeology LLC P.O. Box 991259 Louisville, Kentucky 40269 Project No. PR17001 Cultural Resources Report No. TR17013 (Signature) Mathia N. Scherer Principal Investigator December 4, 2017 Cultural-Historic Survey for the Proposed Beecher Terrace Demolition, Louisville, Jefferson County, Kentucky ABSTRACT Corn Island Archaeology LLC prepared a Cultural-Historic Survey for the proposed demolition of Beecher Terrace public housing development in Louisville, Jefferson County, Kentucky. The City of Louisville received a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Choice Neighborhoods Initiative grant as well as public and private dollars for the transformation of the Russell neighborhood and the phase demotion and reconstruction of the Beecher Terrace public housing development. The investigation was requested by Louisville Metro Housing Authority to fulfill compliance requirements relative to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. The Area of Potential Effects for this project was determined in consultation with the Kentucky State Historic Preservation Office located in the Kentucky Heritage Council. The Area of Potential Effects includes the Beecher Terrace public housing development (bounded by W. Jefferson Street to the north, S. 9th Street to the east, W. Muhamad Ali Boulevard to the south, and S. 13th Street to the west), as well as the surrounding resources with direct visibility of the housing complex. -
