BOB: THIRD STREET
BOB: THIRD STREET
Our second BOB project will be focused on the Third Street portion of District 15. As always, we’re focused on bringing services directly to residents. Plus, this BOB includes a ton of small businesses that we’re excited to help!
We held two community planning meetings in August and neighborhood canvassing started in September. Our Big BOB Day will be on Saturday, November 16th.
Whether you’re a resident, business owner, or general a do-gooder, we’d love to have you be a part of BOB!

BIG BOB DAY!
DON’T MISS BOB’S BIG DAY
We’ve been hard at work over the last few months in the Third Street area and we’re ready to celebrate with you on Saturday, November 16th for BIG BOB Day!
BOB is a program my office offers that takes an intensive focus on one area in District 15 if an effort to proactively help neighbors tackle projects that will better themselves and their community. Through extensive door-to-door canvasing, we have identified services will be bringing to neighbors' doorsteps, such as home repairs through New Directions Housing Corporation, security checks through Louisville Metro Police Department, smoke detector installation through Louisville Division of Fire, and trees from TreesLouisville.
On Saturday, November 16th, we’ll carry out these services, but the fun doesn’t stop there…
YOU are invited to our BIG BOB Day celebration on Saturday, November 16th from 10 am to 1 pm at 3rd and Central (next to Churchill Downs and Wagner’s Pharmacy) to check out a robust resource fair, kid’s zone, and so much more, like:
