LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Water Quality Fees Board is scheduled to meet July 23 to review applications and make selections for fiscal year 2027 grants that fund neighborhood and education projects aimed at improving water quality in Fayette County. The meeting, set for 9 a.m. at the Tate Building, 125 Industrial Avenue, Suite 180, will focus on two grant categories: Class A Neighborhood Grants and Class B Education Grants. For each category, the board will review available funding, examine submitted applications and director recommendations, hear public comment and discuss selection of awardees. The grants are funded through the Water Quality Management Fee and support projects that reduce stormwater runoff and educate residents about protecting local waterways. Class A grants serve neighborhood, community and homeowner associations, while Class B education grants are open to schools, churches, nonprofits and other institutions. The board will also address a change order request related to FY20 work with Kentucky American Water Company and review the status of remaining available funds from the incentive grant program. The Water Quality Fees Board, a citizen board appointed by the mayor, makes final selections on all grant awards and also reviews water quality fee adjustments and related appeals.
