Whitney Elliott Baxter is a Lexington native who’s lived in Lexington’s 9th District her entire life. She was elected as councilmember of the 9th District in November 2020.

She works as a realtor, and stays active in the district through her involvement with Stonewall Community Association and Stonewall Elementary PTA.

The 9th District is home to Lexington’s bustling Nicholasville Road corridor and includes treasures like Stonewall and Waveland, along with some of the city’s busiest commercial corridors like Lexington Green, Fayette Mall, and the Summit.

She says, “I think our neighborhood will continue to flourish and the 9th District will continue to be an area where people love to live and play.”

Schools and public parks in the district include Jessie Clark Middle School, Stonewall Elementary, Wellington Elementary, Shillito Park, Wellington Park, Stonewall Park, Higbee Mill Park, Clemens Park, Southpoint Park, and Waverly Park.

Dave Sevigny was elected to represent the 10th district in November of 2022. Describing himself as a “young retiree,” he launched a small IT company in 1996. His MBA is from Duke and he was awarded Commerce Lexington’s Small Business of the year in 2010, and he was awarded the KY SBA Small Businessperson of the Year in 2011. He retired a few years ago to follow his passion for community and small business stewardship.

Geographically, the 10th District runs from S. Broadway, changing into Harrodsburg Road until it reaches Man O’ War Blvd. Inside New Circle Road, it extends between Versailles Road and Nicholasville Road. It extends outside of New Circle Road between Blenheim and Beaumont Centre Lane. It includes Pasadena Dr., a portion of Alexandria Dr., Clays Mill Road, Rosemont Garden and Southland Dr.

The District includes most of the 40503, 40514, 40513, and 40504 areas.

Jennifer Reynolds grew up in Central Kentucky and was elected as 11th District councilmember in November 2018. She was formerly the outreach director with Bluegrass Youth Ballet.

The 11th District is home to one of Lexington’s most diverse cultural communities. The district supports the University of Kentucky with off campus housing options. Alexandria Drive, Lane Allen, and Southland Drive serve their surrounding neighborhoods commercially and connect the district north and south. Among these corridors and roads is a wide variety of delicious restaurants.

Bordered by both Versailles Road and Broadway, the district’s major arteries lead to critical community assets like Keeneland and the Bluegrass Airport.

Four elementary schools and one high school are located within the 11th district. Two of Lextran’s most popular bus routes run along Versailles Road and Red Mile Road. The Village Branch Library is located in the District. There are eight parks, six of which touch the Wolf Run Watershed.

Kathy Plomin is currently serving her third term as Lexington’s 12th District Councilmember.

She brings more than 30 years of community leadership via her professional career and many roles on local initiatives, boards and organizations.

She spent 21 years at WKYT-TV as VP of Sales and Marketing, before serving as President of the United Way of the Bluegrass until 2009.

She and her family have lived in the Greenbrier subdivision located off Winchester Road in the 12th District for more than three decades.

She respects and appreciates the uniqueness of this district where you can find Lexington’s “calling card” of world famous horse farms, bluegrass farmland, natural resources and beautiful landscapes. Kathy is dedicated to preserving this rural character that makes Lexington the unique, thriving city it is today.

The 12th District makes up 70 percent of Fayette County’s landmass, with suburban neighborhoods, horse farms, rural residences, and many of our city’s treasures, including Raven Run Nature Sanctuary, Kentucky Horse Park, and Keeneland.
