A proposed amendment to Louisville’s Centennial Valley development plan would require every dwelling unit on Parcel L2A to be deed-restricted affordable housing, but the reviewed city records do not specify how many units would be built or when construction could begin, [the city’s Aug. 4 council memorandum says](https://louisvilleco.api.civicclerk.com/v1/Meetings/GetMeetingFileStream(fileId=4313,plainText=false).

The requirement appears in a proposed general-development-plan note describing the parcel as “100% affordable multi-family residential.” Here, 100% refers to the required share of affordable units, not 100 units. The city’s current-development listing describes Centennial Valley as a concept plan involving multifamily development and changes to density and building heights, but lists no unit total or construction schedule. A separate 186-unit figure on the page refers to Coal Creek Village, not Parcel L2A.

Any future affordable-housing credit for units actually developed on L2A would be governed by Louisville Municipal Code Chapter 17.76 as it exists when a future application is filed and detailed in an alternative agreement under Section 17.76.050.F. The agreement would be between the city and the property owner. Units would have to be built and their completion demonstrated by certificates of occupancy before the credit applies; the records do not identify a future owner, a signing deadline or a numerical credit formula.

The plan note says the amended GDP would become the controlling zoning document once approved, but the reviewed materials do not establish that the amendment has received final approval. The project’s unit count, construction timing and approval status therefore remain unresolved.
