About

Fayette Alliance is a non-profit dedicated to achieving smart, sustainable, & equitable growth in Lexington-Fayette County through smart growth advocacy at City Hall, educating the community, and funding independent research.

We believe Fayette County will be the model for sustainable, equitable growth by balancing and connecting our vibrant city with our productive and beautiful Bluegrass farmland.

Our mission is to positively impact city planning policies that create a better quality of life for all.

We advocate for policies that promote community-driven investment in historically disinvested neighborhoods while also protecting people from displacement with real policy solutions.

We educate community members and elected officials about how and why smart growth can improve the quality of life for all Lexingtonians.

We fund independent research to provide objective data to inform our advocacy and to help elected leaders make thoughtful decisions in City Planning policies for Lexington-Fayette County.

Fayette Alliance defines smart growth as a strategy which:

  • Encourages efficient, sustainable land uses

  • Provides housing options at all income levels, creating more equitable neighborhoods

  • Prioritizes community-driven investment in historically disinvested neighborhoods and the development of the 17000+ acres available within the Urban Service Boundary, while protecting residents from displacement

  • Stimulates economic development for job creation, and

  • Promotes our beautiful and economy-driving agricultural industry that provides 1 in 12 jobs in Lexington alone
