Dixon Planning Commission approves Edward Wayne and Alluvium subdivision developments

The Dickson County Planning Commission made significant strides in community development during its recent meeting on March 13, 2025, approving multiple subdivision plans that promise to shape the future of the area.

The commission unanimously approved the final plat for Edward Wayne Properties at Jones Creek Subdivision, which will create six lots on a 10.97-acre parcel along Jones Creek Road. This development includes one existing home and five new buildable lots, with plans for a new fire hydrant to enhance safety in the area. The approval marks a step forward in addressing housing needs in the growing community.

In another key discussion, the commission reviewed a sketch plat for the Alluvium Subdivision on Piney Road. This proposal, which aims to divide a 62.18-acre property into 20 lots, has sparked interest due to its previous consideration for an RV park. The new plan includes the construction of two cul-de-sac roads and aims to keep homes out of the floodplain, addressing concerns about flood insurance and safety. While the project does not require a traffic study due to its size, some members expressed the importance of ensuring roadway capacity and public service maintenance.

The commission also approved the preliminary plat for the Danielson Hollow Subdivision, which will create 15 new lots on a 122.78-acre site. This development will feature a private drive managed by a homeowners association and will include the installation of three new fire hydrants. The planning commission members praised this project as a high-quality development that utilizes the entire parcel effectively, reflecting a commitment to sustainable growth in Dixon County.

These approvals highlight the commission's ongoing efforts to manage growth responsibly while addressing the community's housing needs. As Dixon County continues to expand, these developments are expected to play a crucial role in shaping the local landscape and enhancing the quality of life for residents.
