April 21, 2020 for Immediate Release. WEKU 88.9 and Lexington April 21, 2020 For immediate release. WEKU 88.9 and Lexington Philharmonic Announce New Effort To Bring Symphony Performances To The Homes of Kentuckians During Covid-19 Crisis As the longtime broadcast partner of the Lexington Philharmonic, public radio station WEKU 88.9 ​ ​ ​ and LexPhil have agreed to broadcast five encore LexPhil performances every two weeks through ​ ​ the end of June. The first broadcast will feature the orchestra’s 2015 performance of Mahler’s Symphony No. 2 "The Resurrection Symphony" with combined choirs from Transylvania University, Eastern Kentucky University, Asbury University and Berea College. This special program will air Friday ​ May 1 at 8 p.m. on WEKU Classical channel at WEKU.org and Sunday May 3 at 8 p.m. on WEKU ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 88.9 FM. WEKU Director and General Manager Mike Savage says now was the time to make additional arts programming available to the WEKU audience, which includes many LexPhil patrons and supporters. “With the coronavirus pandemic requiring stay at home measures, these additional broadcasts are a perfect way to bring the orchestra into the homes of Kentuckians,” said Savage. While the Lexington Philharmonic’s 2019/2020 Season has been cancelled, the WEKU encore broadcasts are one way WEKU and the Lexington Philharmonic are helping Kentuckians connect to the music of their orchestra safely at home. The orchestra has also developed an online platform titled LexPhil Living Room, to share musician performance videos, education videos and ​ ​ resources for families at home, and other national and international music resources to provide the community with ways to keep classical music a part of life at home. The WEKU encore broadcast dates and links to listen will also be hosted at the Lexington Philharmonic website. “In times like these, it is human nature to want to gather and support each other. This is a different way of gathering for a concert, yet one that is comfortingly familiar,” says Allison Kaiser, LexPhil Executive Director. “WEKU FM has been an important partner to LexPhil for decades and now is a perfect time to introduce additional ways of sharing the resources of this dynamic partnership. We are very grateful for the generosity of spirit, time and commitment from WEKU.” WEKU encore broadcasts of Lexington Philharmonic concerts will be aired on both WEKU Classical, and WEKU 88.9. Following broadcast on WEKU Classical, listeners will have two weeks to tune in online to listen to the concert stream.

Through LexPhil’s four core values of Artistic Excellence, Innovation, Collaboration and Accessibility, LexPhil will continue to grow artistically and purposefully, providing world-class musical experiences and impactful educational opportunities for Lexington, the Bluegrass Region, and beyond. 88.9 WEKU is a nine station public radio network that serves central and eastern Kentucky on-air, online at WEKU.org and on smartphones and tablets through the WEKU Mobile App. WEKU is a listener-supported public service of Eastern Kentucky University. More information on programming and support options is available at WEKU.org. ### All Lexington Philharmonic programs are made possible through the generous support of LexArts. In 2019-2020, the Lexington Philharmonic received $170,000 in unrestricted support. The Kentucky Arts Council, the state arts agency, provides operating support to the Lexington Philharmonic with state tax dollars and along with federal funding from the National Endowment for the Arts. The Hamilton Saykaly Garbulinska Foundation funds LexPhil’s commitment to continued artistic growth and brings world-renowned artists to perform with LexPhil and participate in outreach for the Lexington community. Special thanks to the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government for its continued partnership in ensuring a flourishing future for the arts in Lexington and central Kentucky. .

For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.

  • Potential Impacts to Public Radio Transmission Facilities from TV Band Repacking
    Meintel, Sgrignoli & Wallace CPB A Report To The Corporation for Public Broadcasting Regarding Potential Impacts To Public Radio Transmission Facilities From TV Band Repacking Dennis Wallace William Meintel MEINTEL, SGRIGNOLI, & WALLACE, LLC 1282 Smallwood Drive, Suite 372 Waldorf, MD 20603 (202) 251-7589 February 2, 2017 Radio Impacts from TV Facility Changes 1 of 11 Meintel, Sgrignoli & Wallace CPB Executive Summary The firm of Meintel, Sgrignoli, and Wallace, LLC (MSW) is pleased to provide the following report to the Corporation for Public Television (CPB) in response to its Scope of Work to provide Post-Auction Spectrum Planning services to CPB. Specifically, MSW was tasked with studying the potential impacts to Public Radio Station Transmitter Facilities that may result from the TV Band Repack and associated DTV Station channel changes and facility modifications. Digital Television stations will be repacked to channels 2-36 after the completion of the FCC’s Incentive Auction. These channel changes are likely to impact some Public Radio stations that a share tower or are near-co-located with a television station. There are several possible impacts ranging from down-time during rigging and derigging operations to loss of tower space and possible relocation due to tower structural limits. The specific impact is highly dependent upon the specific tower situation as well as the new channel assigned to the co-located TV Station(s). A. Potentially Impacted Radio Stations MSW has conducted a study to determine the number of CPB Eligible Radio Stations that are co-located on the same tower as one or more TV Stations.

  • Transportation Study Chapter I – Introduction
    2212-004_cover.fh9 Final Report January 2004 Madison County Transportation Study Chapter I – Introduction CHAPTER I – INTRODUCTION The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC), through its Division of Multimodal Programs, has the responsibility to assist urban areas within the Commonwealth with an examination of their overall transportation systems. Therefore, the KYTC, in cooperation with local governmental officials and the U.S. Department of Transportation, allocated funds in 2002 to sponsor transportation studies for some areas with populations of more than 5,000 people. The purpose of these urban transportation studies is primarily to analyze present and future highway travel, to identify existing system-wide deficiencies and to forecast future deficiencies in the urban area’s roadway systems. These studies also provide for the development of both short- range and long-range improvements to state and federal highway systems facilities to alleviate those deficiencies. In addition, these studies may address multi-modal and intermodal transportation issues at levels of detail appropriate for individual areas. These can include bicycle and pedestrian facilities, transit service, trucking operations, rail facilities, and aviation issues. The efficient movement of people and goods is a factor that greatly affects Madison County’s ability to function effectively as an urban society. Because of this, the Madison County Areawide Transportation Study was sponsored by the KYTC, and conducted by the firm of Jordan, Jones and Goulding with the cooperation of Madison County and the cities of Richmond and Berea. Background Madison County is located in the heart of Central Kentucky, just south of Fayette County. There are two mid-sized cities - Richmond, the county seat, and Berea, renowned as the ‘Folk Arts & Crafts Capital of Kentucky’.
