Staff said most plan comments were addressed but reiterated TDOT would need to review and approve driveway improvements because the site fronts a state road. County staff noted there is a gravel entrance the state may require to be upgraded or removed. The plan as presented shows a detention pond, buffers and parking; staff also noted the septic field for the proposed shop appears to be off-site on the owner’s adjacent residential parcel and will require an off-site septic easement and corresponding waiver that must return to the commission for approval.

Commissioners raised operational concerns about vehicle storage and overflow parking, noting the site’s proximity to an adjacent used-car lot and the possibility that the repair shop could effectively become an extension of the car lot. Commissioners also discussed enforcement limits concerning trucks unloading vehicles at the roadside; staff said enforcement of unloading on the shoulder of State Route 231 (Shelbyville Pike) would be a law-enforcement issue.

Matt Taylor of SCC represented the applicant; the named applicants on the application are Prasav Abdaub and Zolan Kalif. The commission approved the site plan with staff comments; staff will require the applicant to record any necessary off-site easement for the septic system and to secure TDOT and TDEC approvals as required prior to permits.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Planning Commission Meeting - March 24, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Planning commission approved a 7,200-square-foot auto-repair shop on Shelbyville/Shovleville Pike with conditions.

Staff said the proposal — a 10,960-square-foot building for a property-maintenance business with two overhead doors and vehicle storage — is consistent with existing CS zoning and that most staff comments had been addressed. The development spans two lots, but the applicant will not combine them; access will be from Stonebrook Drive (a county road) and New Salem Highway (State Route 99), and staff noted TDOT approval will be required for changes to the state-route access.

Matt Taylor of SCC represented the applicant, Fortress Group LLC, and confirmed the applicant team was available to answer questions. Commissioners asked staff to verify TDOT driveway access rules because the state has been reducing curb cuts on state routes. The motion to approve with staff comments carried on a roll call with all recorded yes votes.

Staff will ensure remaining items are taken care of before issuing building permits and will verify TDOT acceptance of the proposed access arrangements.","The commission approved a 10,960-square-foot office and vehicle-storage building on New Salem Highway (State Route 99), with final permits contingent on Tennessee Department of Transportation approval for driveway access.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6108814,"Planning commission approves Hunter Brothers contractors site plan after stormwater, driveway tweaks",382,630000,1012000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2766805-88127710b2f0b9a25ef2f8de7b06815d&start=630&end=1012","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2766805-88127710b2f0b9a25ef2f8de7b06815d/thumbnail_630000.jpg","/articles/6108814/Rutherford-County/Tennessee/Planning-commission-approves-Hunter-Brothers-contractors-site-plan-after-stormwater-driveway-tweaks","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6108814-6ca7bbb61703ab81266887f49c8797f0/orig.mp4?Expires=1770707323&Signature=QRrsVJL6eWK8IN6OqHPTM~ZI9jRRLU5xVc4o98MznjH1Lg8P~wji4RAWfQRuZcS17dS27q3VQAM-UArhlfaTUVdE8ZRc9OXKqSPtcVqzTLFpHpESmRObOViO2chHKGpc8Ts81ci2mdUM0J~PlYJCuJqEB2iC0jECKvmJ08pdNbaUwUsqVKrNgPVR2-CHnv5YmQGGlxa9BalW5ymdpC~ZrB8uaIpth3e9QjYpuqVd5X90qqf2CM8w4XgKe4GMOHEsW6Knh4Quo49opMKsRsZdLseoHXZj~ys4G83cOVfrUrt-cF4awQUBoH76HJhecRLbw3uOnpcUqbLzs2KOc~xz6w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Rutherford County Regional Planning Commission approved a site plan for Hunter Brothers Contractors LLC on March 24, 2029, allowing construction of approximately 15,600 square feet of light-industrial space in two buildings on about 3.7 acres along Burnt Knob Road, subject to staff comments addressing stormwater and driveway drainage.

Staff said the zoning had been approved previously and the proposed use — contractor equipment and material storage — was consistent with that rezoning but identified technical items needing “tweaking,” chiefly an upsized cross-drain at the driveway entrance and coordination of downstream stormwater structures with adjacent work by Rogers Group. County engineers asked the applicant to show that proposed spillways and trench drains will capture high-velocity runoff on the steep site.

Kevin Chesteen of Griggs Maloney Engineering represented the applicant and said the facility will mainly store contractor trailers and materials; he said staff concluded a turn lane was not required based on the traffic evaluation, and the project does not anticipate regular semi-truck traffic. Engineers and commissioners discussed driveway throat radii, slotted drains and a trench drain across the entrance to limit water reaching the road.

The commission moved and approved the site plan with staff comments; the roll call recorded yes votes from the commissioners listed in the record. Staff will final-review the driveway entrance, cross-drain sizing and the final stormwater details before sign-off for building permits.","Commission approved a site plan for Hunter Brothers Contractors to build two industrial buildings on Burnt Knob Road after staff requested adjustments to stormwater and driveway drainage; applicant and engineers present and will coordinate with nearby Rogers Group improvements.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6108818,"Planning commission approves three final plats, grants waivers for small family lots",121,234000,355000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2766805-88127710b2f0b9a25ef2f8de7b06815d&start=234&end=355","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2766805-88127710b2f0b9a25ef2f8de7b06815d/thumbnail_234000.jpg","/articles/6108818/Rutherford-County/Tennessee/Planning-commission-approves-three-final-plats-grants-waivers-for-small-family-lots","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6108818-96c82fe7de46675c9e5d69e6a410807e/orig.mp4?Expires=1770707323&Signature=P7GUb0SiqVTQMrZSuFbxY1mlFErR1iiEJlR0T88y~EM-yOoWtptale6Po8vHm7rDmKx1oyWMUjvLREh7K6pdUSjnClV53IUHZd86YP5gi07D46DvLxHQ~sy7S0rd5mis1imJiTlf5IzutxKQ6oxYXCnmKvwXxCYK0AnMlSMMXDZBD9O-Pot6qX~acDbxbIe~rxrnQ0-nVfqOjGHmiQPvTgVxC3zPtlm-p8K88R0kYtuS4WbOVBdtBhXg3m6NUUa5-06uSWqdd67NjXI03p68CWrXb3BdQsmkoCPhzBDQY~uSuXimK56aryfMWRjB89yCwkhJPZxoJlMspKwAD~J1gQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Rutherford County Regional Planning Commission approved three final plats at its March 24, 2029 meeting, granting waivers needed for newly created lots that do not meet standard lot-size or hydrant-distance requirements.

The approvals matter because each plat creates smaller lots or site conditions that required explicit waivers: two involved family divisions creating lots under five acres served by private easements, and one requested a fire-hydrant distance waiver because the local water line cannot support a hydrant.

Staff told commissioners the plats were otherwise in order. The Ruby lot (file 22520081) is a 2.8-acre lot along Independent Hill Road created from a larger tract and seeks a waiver for a lot under five acres served by a private easement. Jamie Reed represented the applicant and was present. Simmons Estates on McKee Road proposes a 1.538-acre lot; consolidated utility district documentation shows a nearby water line cannot support a hydrant, prompting the hydrant-waiver request. The Belinda Lillard subdivision proposes two lots on 7.3 acres at 5222 Old Nashville Highway and seeks a waiver because a new lot would be less than five acres and accessed by a private easement; the planning commission previously approved a related waiver in December 2024, the staff report said.

All three motions carried on roll-call votes with no recorded opposing or abstaining votes. The planning commission secretary conducted roll calls for each motion; the recorded “yes” votes for each item included Jim Aberwater, Jeff Phillips, Mike Kush, Lee Bogle, Charlotte P., Trey Gooch, Jim Thompson, Jason Beavers and Pettis Reed.

The commission removed one final-plat item, Baxter Subdivision (25-2011), from the agenda after staff said the remaining issue would be resolved by notation on the plat regarding a fire-hydrant waiver and could be handled administratively. No members of the public signed up to comment during the public-comment period.

The commission recessed to other business after the votes and staff reminded members of upcoming meetings and a Plan Rutherford work session scheduled to follow the April 28 meeting.","Rutherford County Regional Planning Commission approved three final plats — Ruby, Simmons Estates and Belinda Lillard — each requiring waivers for lots smaller than five acres or for fire-hydrant distance; all motions passed unanimously.","actionData","errors"]
