Summary

NDOT said final plans for Brookview Estates Drive will be posted online and mailed to abutting property owners as unique-ID postcards; voting runs about six weeks, is a yes/no on the plan, and requires two-thirds (66%) of respondents to vote yes to proceed.

NDOT explained the neighborhood approval process for Brookview Estates Drive during the meeting. After NDOT refines the concept design following a field review, final plans will be posted online and mailed as unique-ID postcards to eligible properties. Voting will be open for roughly six weeks and is a simple yes/no on the final design plans.

Chase Fuqua said the program mails ballots to property-owner addresses for parcels that directly abut Brookview Estates Drive; residential properties, churches and schools each receive one vote and metro-owned or vacant parcels are ineligible. Fuqua clarified that the outcome is determined by respondents: if two-thirds (66%) of respondents vote yes, the project advances into the construction queue. He added that property owners who did not receive a mailer should contact project staff to obtain their unique ID.

Residents asked whether renters can vote; Fuqua said mailing lists are generated from property-owner addresses, so tenants typically will not receive ballots unless they are also the property owner. Fuqua encouraged neighbors to discuss the plan with one another and to use the public project page at engage.nashville.gov/trafficcalming for updated materials and to request assistance with unique IDs.
