Nolensville residents clash over controversial sewer project plans
During a recent government meeting in Nolensville, community members voiced their support for a proposed transfer of funds to Williamson County Parks and Recreation, aimed at enhancing local baseball and softball facilities. Blake Liddens, a volunteer with the Nolensville Baseball Board, emphasized the importance of these funds for improving the historic field and constructing a new field to accommodate over 1,600 registered players annually. He highlighted the growing collaboration between Nolensville and Williamson County Parks and Recreation, which he believes will benefit local families and youth sports programs.

Ben Chipkovich, another volunteer coach, echoed Liddens' sentiments, stressing that the upgrades to the recreational fields are critical for the community's park infrastructure and will positively impact thousands of children involved in local sports.

However, the meeting also featured significant discussions regarding an eminent domain resolution, which has sparked controversy among residents. Several speakers raised concerns about the process and implications of the resolution, particularly regarding its rushed presentation and the potential impact on private property. One resident criticized the town's approach, arguing that the resolution was based on erroneous information and lacked transparency. He expressed frustration over the perceived disregard for public notification and due process, suggesting that the town's management had failed to adequately oversee the situation.

Lisa Pomranki, a neighboring property owner, shared her personal connection to the land in question, emphasizing her long-standing relationship with the landowner who has not granted the necessary easement for the sewer project. She expressed her reluctance to oppose her neighbor but underscored the broader implications of the decision on the community.

The discussions highlighted a divide in the community regarding the balance between development needs and property rights, with residents calling for more clarity and consideration in the decision-making process. As Nolensville continues to grow, the outcomes of these discussions will likely shape the future of local infrastructure and community relations.
