BLUE GRASS
ACTION NETWORK
Smarter growth for a stronger Blue Grass community
The Blue Grass Action Network brings neighbors together to champion responsible development that respects our community's character and protects our quality of life.
We're not anti-development. We're pro-planning that is mindful and considerate of existing communities. We support affordable housing and economic opportunity. We welcome progress that complements our neighborhoods rather than overwhelming them.
And that means planning infrastructure before approving density, respecting the rural-suburban charm that makes Blue Grass special, and ensuring our children have quality schools without trailers, overcrowded classrooms, and limited resources.
​
WHY THIS MATTERS NOW
SCHOOLS ARE
AT CAPACITY
Blue Grass Elementary students are learning in temporary trailers. Teachers have nowhere to eat lunch or take breaks as every available space has been turned into a classroom.
TRAFFIC/SAFETY CONCERNS
Ebenezer Road faces growing congestion and safety concerns without any planned infrastructure improvements.
GOVERNMENT ISN'T LISTENING TO US
In one case, residents received just two days notice about major zoning changes. The Planning Commission & County Commissioners have shown total lack of disregard for residents' concerns.
INFRASTRUCTURE
STRAIN
Smart communities add capacity and improve infrastructure before adding density (AKA more people). Growth that hurts our quality of life isn't progress.
