  • Legislative process | City of Lexington, Kentucky

    Lexington, KY
    Other

    The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Council, composed of a vice mayor, two at-large members, and 12 district representatives, follows a five-step legislative process to write, revise, and adopt resolutions and ordinances for Fayette County. Resolutions are temporary or diplomatic in character, while ordinances establish permanent rules and are codified in the Code of Ordinances, appropriate funds, or are required by law. Items originate in one of four committees (Budget, Finance and Economic Development; Environmental Quality and Public Works; General Government and Planning; Social Services and Public Safety), where they are researched and discussed by committee members who vote to pass or fail them. Passed items are reported out to the full council at a work session, typically about one month later, where all councilmembers discuss and vote on them. If an item passes work session, it advances to first reading at the next scheduled Thursday council meeting, followed by a second reading at a subsequent meeting; the council may vote to suspend rules and combine both readings immediately.
