CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – The Montgomery County Commission approved a proposed rezoning Monday night to transition more than 11 acres off Dover Road, near the future Highway 374, from agricultural district (AG) to single-family residential district (R-1).
J&N Enterprises was the applicant, and the land is on the eastern side of the southern terminus of Ross Lane, according to previous reports.
Historical estimates of 22 homes
Regional Planning Commission Director Jeffrey Tyndall said at last week’s meeting the requested R-1 would be an extension of the R-1 to the north, as well as some to the east and southwest.
Tyndall said the tract is in the Planned Growth Area, is currently wooded and is in the Woodlawn Dotsonville Planning Area. He also pointed out the property to the east and to the northeast is Ireland Way, which was rezoned several years ago for a subdivision, and then just this past year the property to the north of the 11 acres, on the west side, was rezoned as part as Jackson Hill subdivision.
The 11 acres will be stubbed into the planned Jackson Hill subdivision. Tyndall said the historical estimates would be 22 homes on this property, and it would not put the subdivision over the total amount of units allowed.
