Growth Plan Update - Urban Growth Boundary

Urban Growth Boundary - Growth Plan Update

The Growth Plan Update is a planning process that will revise the Town’s Urban Growth Boundaries, which will determine where the Town will grow through the year 2040.

This is an opportunity for community members to help shape the future of the Town by providing ideas, concerns, and priorities that will guide the recommendations for the Growth Plan Update.

Growth Plan Details:

This is not an annexation plan. Annexation, under Tennessee state law, only occurs at the request of the property owner. This Growth Plan will not annex your property within Thompson’s Station.
This will not impact or change your property tax. Unless you request annexation into Thompson’s Station, your property tax will not be changed at all.
This will not change your address. Addressing is handled by the Post Office and would not be impacted by the Growth Plan Update at all.
Growth Plan Update is a county-wide effort. Each municipality in the County is participating in planning for growth over the next 20 years. This is the first update to the Growth Plan since 2001.
The Growth Plan Update will help the County and the Town better manage and plan for growth over time.
