Who We Are
The Fayette Alliance is Lexington’s ONLY land-use advocacy organization that regularly educates and lobbies local government for a sustainable growth model that benefits all of us.
We believe that preserving our signature Bluegrass landscape, creating a dynamic and equitable cityscape through infill redevelopment, and improving our natural waterways are key components to achieving our economic and environmental promise here in Lexington-Fayette County...
We are an alliance of citizens from the entire community, including stakeholders from the agricultural, neighborhood, and infill sectors. See "Who We Are" We are a united voice for responsible growth, and only weigh-in on those land-use issues that have countywide implications. Together we can chart our future, and positively impact local zoning decisions—the very building blocks of our community. See "Our Successes"
If you want a better quality of life for all of us, please join The Fayette Alliance today for free.
