Social District Has Begun!
Starting in July 2023!
The Village of Lexington has been approved by the State of Michigan to operate a Social District, allowing the outdoor consumption of alcoholic beverages in public spaces within the defined common area (see boundary map).
While we’ve made it legal to wander around with your compliant beverage of choice, we remind you to be responsible and considerate of others. Lexington is a charming, family-oriented village and we strive to keep it beautiful, clean and fun.
Thanks for being here and enjoy!
