Coffee County approves TDOT agreement for Hillsborough traffic-signal upgrades
Summary
The Coffee County Commission unanimously approved Resolution 2026-06 authorizing the mayor to sign an agreement with the Tennessee Department of Transportation for traffic-light signalization upgrades in downtown Hillsborough; detailed project prints will be available in the mayor's office for public review.
The Coffee County Commission on a unanimous 16–0 vote approved Resolution 2026-06 authorizing the mayor to sign a proposal with the Tennessee Department of Transportation to upgrade traffic-signalization in downtown Hillsborough. The presiding official recorded the vote as "16 to 0."
The measure, introduced by Commissioner Nettles and seconded by Commissioner Hirschman, directs county acceptance of the TDOT proposal and places detailed prints of the project — including cross arms and crosswalk plans — on file in the mayor's office for review during business hours. The presiding official told commissioners that those prints will be available "for anybody, any commissioner, anybody in the public's welcome to drop in during our business hours to review that."
County staff and TDOT will proceed with the administrative steps outlined in the agreement; the resolution does not specify construction start dates in the meeting record. The commission recorded the motion and the 16–0 vote in the official minutes, and the signed agreement will be retained in county records.
