District 10
Amanda Bledsoe
Tenth district councilmember Amanda Bledsoe “was raised in the 10th district,” and moved to “Beaumont in 2005, primarily because of the quality of the schools, parks, and trails. The quick access to the Bluegrass Airport was a great bonus.”
The 10th district also features the growing Southland Drive corridor and extends to the corner of Nicholasville Road, featuring assets like the “Welcome to Southland” sign that Bledsoe collaborated to have installed.
“Everywhere from Southland Drive and beyond is always evolving. The 10th District has no shortage of restaurants, retail, and varying offices. It’s a great testament to the fact that people really want to live, work, and play in this part of town.”
Bledsoe has been involved with the urban county council since 2015 and is focused on creating an environment for economic growth and believes sound fiscal responsibility is important.
The 10th district includes most of the 40503, 40514, 40513, and 40504 and is home to Beaumont, Firebrook, Dogwood Trace, Harrods Hill, Hill N Dale, Palomar Hills Community, Palomar Townhomes, Southland Drive, Cave Hill, and Clement Heights.
Schools in the district include Dunbar High School, Beaumont Middle School, Rosa Parks Elementary School, and Clays Mill Elementary School.
