WATER OUTAGE UPDATE 12/6/23

Posted on December 5, 2023 by James Martin

Commissioner Sandy Walker has been in touch with Louisville Water Company. She reports that there is a bigger water pipe repair issue now because Bellemeade’s shutoffs are also connected to the UL/Shelbyhurst Campus water supply. The Water Company’s current plan is to identify proper shutoff gates tomorrow, but they will likely not start the work of repairing the two broken shutoff gates until Friday. It is believed that there may be a water shut off beginning possibly Monday around 9 am during daytime hours until all is repaired. Bellemeade residents may experience daytime water outages 1 or 2 days next week.

Best Regards,
James Martin, Mayor

REQUEST FOR BIDS – Lawn Maintenance Service

Posted on January 14, 2025 by James Martin

It’s time, again, to seek bids for our public landscaping needs. The City has had a lot of success over the years by contracting with our local residents. We’ve tried outside companies also, but we’ve found that attention to detail and responsiveness is greatest from a local resident. The City of Bellemeade is seeking bids for lawn maintenance services at its two Shelbyville Road entrances and the small park bench roundabout on Woodcleft Road. We’d really like to utilize a local resident if possible. Click the link below for the scope of work. If you are interested, please reach out to Mayor Martin with a bid by February 15, 2025. If you have any questions, Mayor Martin’s phone number is 502 489 0827. Bids may be emailed to mayor@bellemeade-ky.gov.
