OUR STORY

Mayes Creek Basin is in the Eastern part of Williamson County.  It is comprised of approximately 10,000 acres.  It contains mostly homes with lots of open space.  That is in danger of changing!  The Mayes Creek Basin is in the City of Franklin's Urban Growth Boundary (UGB).  Because of this, the guidelines for developing property within the UGB are different than what the guidelines are for property out of the UGB but still within Williamson County.  That being said, the City of Franklin passed a resolution requesting a change to Envision Franklin and is asking the Planning Commission to vote on the change which will take 600 acres of land that is on Highway 96 East and change its designation from Developmental Reserve to Village Green.  This means that instead of areas along the fringes of the Franklin UGB, that are characterized by agricultural uses, and single-family residential uses on significant acreage, it will have Townhomes, Duplexes, Multi-Family, Single-Family and Commercial development.  THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE to the residents that reside in the Mayes Creek Basin area.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION!

Below is a button that links to a copy of the Mayes Creek Basin Annexation Capabilities Study 2023 Update.  The report was presented at the February 17, 2023 Board of Mayor and Aldermen and Franklin Municipal Planning Commission Joint Conceptual Workshop.  I think you will find the information very interesting.  There are 3 options proposed for the sewer line to run.

Here is a link to an article that appeared in The Tennessean on May 31, 2024

 

This is a link to a story about Poplar Farms, a subdivision of over 550 homes being built on Clovercroft Road.  It is claiming over 125 acres of open space.  What they aren't telling you is that a good portion of those acres are not buildable anyway.  Because of hilltop overlay, gas lines and high tension wires, you would not have been able to build on it.  Those small details seem to get left out of the news.  To read the article, click on the button below:

SERENBE, GEORGIA

I received another email from Alderman Baggett who states that we misunderstand the Village Green concept and that it is not going to be another Westhaven on the East side of town.  He told me it is being modeled after Serenbe, Georgia so I looked up Serenbe, Georgia.  Below is a link so you can look at and decide for yourselves if it is what you want or do you still want Rural Reserve.  I have heard many comments concerning Serenbe, Georgia and how it started out one way and has now changed to be exactly what we don't want.  So don't get fooled!
