About each permit
Zoning Verification Letter
Payable by check or money order to LFUCG; typical turnaround is three to five business days. Whether this letter is a mandatory prerequisite for every business type or an optional due-diligence document was not stated on the fee schedule itself. The same filing fee schedule separately lists a Zoning Compliance Permit at 'No charge.'
Conditional Use Permit — Child Care Facility
Required only where the zoning district does not permit a child care use by right — check zoning first. This is on top of, not instead of, Kentucky's state child-care license. Unlike Louisville, whose $550 Conditional Use fee drops to $0 for a centre of 12 or fewer children, Lexington-Fayette's fee schedule prices Conditional Use as a single flat $250 figure with no named child-care carve-out.
