Wilson County Planning Commission approves rezoning, multiple site plans and plats; defers Ravens Crest Phase 4
Summary
On April 17 the commission unanimously approved a rezoning for Locust Grove Investments, multiple site plans (including Friendship Christian School Phase 1 and Golden Bear 8), affirmed several plats, and deferred Ravens Crest Phase 4 to May 22, 2026. The commission also voted to ask the mayor to seek legislation allowing alternates on the board.
At its April 17 meeting the Wilson County Planning Commission approved several routine and project-specific actions and confirmed staff recommendations for multiple site plans and plats.
A rezoning application filed by K & A Land Surveying on behalf of Locust Grove Investments, LLC sought to change approximately 3.19 acres at 10800 Hwy 109 N from A-1 Agricultural to R-1 Rural Residential (Parcel 17.00 & 18.00 on Tax Map 10). Brian Keith said the property already contained three legal lots and would comply with R-1 standards. Commissioner Turner moved to approve; Renfro seconded and the commission voted unanimously to forward the rezoning to the County Commission’s May 2026 meeting.
The commission also approved multiple site plans subject to staff recommendations: Friendship Christian School Phase 1 (2 lots at 5400 Coles Ferry Pike) approved on motion by Weathers, second by Woods; Golden Bear 8 convenience store and fuel station (4430 Murfreesboro Rd) approved on motion by Weathers, second Renfro; Speedway Industrial Park Building 7 truck court approved on motion by Turner, second Neal; and Centennial Roofing signage approved on motion by Weathers, second Turner. Final and preliminary plats approved subject to staff recommendations included the Denney Property (final, 10 lots), Meg Wright property (prelim, 9 lots), and a batch of affirmations for multiple smaller plats and subdivision amendments.
Planning Director Lawless said the applicant for Ravens Crest Phase 4 (65 lots) requested a deferral; Chairman Jones moved and the commission unanimously agreed to defer the item to the May 22 meeting.
The commission also discussed a proposed revision to its bylaws. After a staff review, Chairman Jones moved that Mayor Hutto request legislation to allow alternates on the Planning Commission; the motion was seconded by Weathers and carried unanimously. The minutes record that staff recommendations and relevant department comments (Stormwater, Engineering, County Fire Marshall, Utility District) were to be attached to the minute file for approved items.
With no further business the commission adjourned.
