A request was submitted this week to rezone from AR2a (Agricultural) to SP zoning for properties located along Old Hickory Boulevard. Once approved, the request would permit warehouse uses on the 12.38-acre site. This development would join other freight terminals in the immediate area including Amazon’s Rapid Asset Development site, UPS, and FedEx to name a few. There are also single-family home developments within proximity of the site. The zoning change was requested by Johnson Development Associates Inc., on behalf of William Yeargin Jr., Paula Yeargin and William Spaulding, owners. Here’s the quick rundown.
