What shapes a project in Bowling Green
Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.
Newer homes and many rentals
ACS 2020-2024 estimates put the median year built for Bowling Green housing at 1991, and about 39 percent of units were built in 2000 or later. Only about 37 percent of occupied homes are owner-occupied, and about 31 percent of units are in buildings with five or more units.
Western Pennyroyal karst
The Kentucky Geological Survey lists Bowling Green among the Western Pennyroyal communities on karst terrain. Sinkholes and sinkhole flooding are the karst hazards that do the most damage to buildings, so foundations and drainage need attention on new work.
Erosion control on disturbed soil
Bowling Green's permit application asks how much soil a project will disturb. Disturbing 750 square feet up to one acre requires a professional plot plan, an erosion prevention and sediment control plan and a certified erosion control contractor. Disturbing more than one acre requires Comprehensive Development Review with the City-County Planning Commission.
