During a recent government meeting, residents voiced significant concerns regarding the proposed Whispering Meadows subdivision in Mount Juliet, Tennessee. Local citizen Carl Bonert highlighted the existing challenges faced by the Kelsey Glen subdivision, particularly regarding traffic safety and inadequate infrastructure to support additional housing.

Bonert emphasized that the current road conditions and traffic levels pose a safety hazard, especially for children waiting for school buses. He urged the city planning commission to consider these factors when evaluating the subdivision's approval. He also pointed out that the area designated for Whispering Meadows appears to have been intended as a cul-de-sac, which should not serve as a thoroughfare, suggesting that alternative access routes should be explored.

Another resident raised concerns about drainage issues, noting that the proposed site is lower than surrounding areas, which could exacerbate existing problems. He recounted the lengthy struggle the community faced with sinkholes and drainage solutions, questioning the city's ability to manage similar issues in the future.

The meeting also included discussions on various other developments, including the final plats for Willow Landing phase 2, Wintree Pines phases 2c, 4a, 5a, 6a, and 7a, and Waterford Park phase 3. However, the primary focus remained on the implications of the Whispering Meadows project, as residents called for careful consideration of the community's infrastructure and safety before moving forward with new developments.
