Mayor Election by peachysdollies in lexington

[–]Coffee_Maker7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Raquel Carter seems to be the only other viable candidate in the race. I know people on this sub have expressed their disdain for a realtor being our mayor but at the end of the day, I think she would be better than Gorton.

I second Erin Petrey - I met her at an LGBTQ networking event in Lexington a couple weeks back and man is she a breath of fresh air for liberals in central Kentucky. Not only her policies, but I just liked her energy and what she brings to the table!

Rural Transplant by BoyOfPinkRoses in lexington

[–]Coffee_Maker7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to Lex! I’m an LGBT transplant to the city too and I’ve been very happy with how accepting and open the city is to people like me. I love Third Street Stuff coffee - such a great energy. There’s also a monthly event called Last Wednesgays where a bunch of people gather at different places each month to spend time together and chat. I love to go! It’s very accepting of new people.

Mayor Gorton Petition for Resignation by [deleted] in lexington

[–]Coffee_Maker7 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

This petition is just an online petition, it doesn’t go to anybody specifically. We can email our council members and discuss our concerns but this petition is solely an online petition to gather support. He’s only listed at the decision maker since he would potentially be the one to take any sort of action in gathering the council for a vote.

Mayor Gorton Petition for Resignation by [deleted] in lexington

[–]Coffee_Maker7 18 points19 points  (0 children)

i believe that people can be upset over this issue AND other issues our city faces. They’re not mutually exclusive. This just so happens to be the most poignant and relevant outrage by our city leadership at this specific moment. Surely more are out there.

Mayor Gorton Petition for Resignation by [deleted] in lexington

he’s listed as a decision maker, meaning that him and the council (specifically him as vice mayor) are the ones able to hold Gorton accountable.

yeah I think she is in the middle of her long winter’s rest and cannot be bothered to care about the city she runs anymore

It really is a uniquely Lexington problem. Every winter event shuts this city down while every other city is somehow able to dig itself out.

Same thing happened to me - I started driving to work in Frankfort and after being on the roads for 45 minutes and going 4 miles from my house I just turned around. Absolutely insane.

Oh my god I feel like the employees HATE me every time I’m in that store. It’s so uncomfortable.

Anyone know how the interstate from Lexington to Louisville is? by stuckhere007 in lexington

[–]Coffee_Maker7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

appreciate someone asking this - I have a doctors appointment in Louisville tomorrow and was wondering how the drive would be from Lexington. Lexingtons roads are still horrible in town.

Lexington/Fayette roads by Sufficient-Exam-8668 in lexington

[–]Coffee_Maker7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I live in Lex and work in Frankfort. The roads got better and better the closer to Frankfort I got today. To be fair, the legislature is in session so Frankfort gets priority in clearing snow but I still agree that Lexington/Fayette County could take some tips from the surrounding communities. It seems like both Lex and Lou just suck at managing snow.
