The NKAPC has been asked to assist the City of Covington in the preparation of a plan for the area of the city known as Latonia. The study will primarily examine the area bounded by Madison Pike (KY 17) to the north, the Licking River to the east, and the cities of Taylor Mill and Fort Wright to the south and west. Over the course of approximately one year, the NKAPC will work with the City of Covington, its residents and business owners to create a plan for the future and a strategy to begin implementation of that plan. The plan will likely focus on areas such as: transportation, wayfinding, housing, industry, and will also work to identify locations with good redevelopment potential. The study will also examine potential impacts and influences from outside the study boundaries to ensure the most complete plan possible. Periodic updates on the study, meeting information and pertinent documents will be posted on the project website.
Small area studies are intended to be adopted by the Kenton County Planning Commission (KCPC) as a more detailed part of the comprehensive plan for the area covered. Once adopted by the planning commission, these plans are used as the basis for review by NKAPC staff and the KCPC.
For additional information, please contact Andrew Videkovich, AICP, Planning Manager.
