Managing Lexington's Nighttime Economy Lexington’s Downtown Entertainment Development Task Force seeks to invigorate economic activity in the city’s urban core. This all-volunteer effort by representatives of broad cultural and socioeconomic cross-sections of the community is working to achieve its goals with the support and guidance of the Responsible Hospitality Institute (RHI). The task force, authorized by Vice Mayor Jim Gray, functions within a structure comprised of four broad categories suggested by RHI: Development, Safety, Community and Hospitality. These committees are working to identify and engage relevant stakeholders from those various fields. RHI, which has provided its consultation services to 22 cities from Boulder and Seattle to Chicago and Washington D.C., will bring to Lexington its Hospitality Zone Assessment, culminating in a Leadership Summit on Hospitality, Safety and Development. The Hospitality Zone Assessment is an
important tool communities can use to build consensus among the many
stakeholders engaged in or impacted by the presence of entertainment
venues. Links on this site provide a guide through the process. Upcoming Events:
