TRANSCRIPT
WHO WE AREDowntown Lexington Partnership (DLP) is the umbrella Downtown organization formed in the 4th quarter of 2017 to provide a single point of contact and accountability and a coordinated approach to Downtown revitalization and management. The Downtown Lexington Corporation (DLC) and Lexington Downtown Development Authority (LDDA), two long operating organizations, fall directly under the DLP umbrella and are managed by a common board of directors known as the Downtown Lexington Board of Directors. A third organization, the Downtown Lexington Management District (DLMD), has a sepa-rate board of directors that contracts with the Downtown Lexington Partnership to manage its programs and services. The DLP family of organizations’ missions are:
Downtown Lexington Corporation (DLC), was founded in 1988, and is a 501(c)4 membership-based, event and marketing not-for-profi t. The DLC mission is to promote Downtown Lexington as a unique and vibrant place in Lexington for business, residential life and entertainment. In addition, DLC acts as a liaison between downtown businesses and the local government.
Lexington Downtown Development Authority (LDDA), is a quasi-governmental organization which promotes Downtown’s physical and economic development to strengthen and maintain Downtown Lexington as the cultural and economic heart of Central Kentucky. LDDA:• Tackles the toughest development challenges directly.• Drives investment into the neighborhoods and Central Business District by providing actionable urban design and real
estate analysis for the public and private sectors. • Sets the agenda for future development through community outreach, education, and public involvement.
Downtown Lexington Management District (DLMD) DLP also manages the programs and services of the Downtown Lexington Management District on behalf of the Downtown Management District Board of Directors. DLMD is a property tax business improvement district created by the Lexington Fayette Urban County Government (LFUCG) Council after a majority of property owners within the proposed District approved a petition to request its establishment. DLMD began operation in 2016 and uses the District property tax levy to enhance and manage Downtown’s physical environment and to foster economic development and Downtown revitalization by: • Providing enhanced cleaning services to create a foundation for business development.• Providing enhanced safety resources to address worker, visitor and resident safety.• Supporting public art initiatives.
