City council is expected to resume discussion about the proposed ordinance at its Feb. 15 meeting.

Lexington City Council has abandoned a proposal to locate a dog park along the Route 11 Bypass, parallel to McCorkle Drive.

Lexington’s housing board and some city council members are discussing several ideas to address homelessness in the city.

Three of four precincts have reported results in Lexington’s City Council race, where four candidates faced off for three seats. Candidate Collette Barry-Rec appears to have been defeated.

The four candidates running for Lexington City Council, as well as Rep. Ben Cline and his opponent Jennifer Lewis, appeared at a candidates’ forum Oct. 25. The forum was hosted by the Lexington-Rockbridge Chamber of Commerce and focused on housing, economic development and other policy topics. One candidate said “a woman’s place is in the home.”

Rockbridge area residents will vote for the next U.S. president, as well as U.S. senator and representative by Nov. 3.
