During the Planning Commission Regular Meeting held on April 25, 2025, in Shelbyville, Tennessee, key discussions centered around the development of commercial properties and a proposed site plan for a private transfer station.

One of the primary topics was the acreage of Tract 1 and Tract 2, which totals approximately 22 acres. The commission noted a slight discrepancy in the recorded plat, which indicates 22 acres, while discussions suggested that the front part of Tract 2 is about 7 acres. This clarification is crucial as the city seeks to enhance its commercial development, particularly in the area designated as 02/31. The commission expressed the need for commercial growth in this region, highlighting the importance of accurate land measurements for future developments.

Additionally, the commission reviewed a site plan application for a new private transfer station on a 4.03-acre parcel located at 210 Cedar King Road. This proposal includes a 15,000 square foot transfer station and a 4,000 square foot addition to an existing building. The project is being represented by Sadler and Associates, with the site zoned as General Industrial. The commission's favorable recommendation for this project indicates a step forward in accommodating the city's growing infrastructure needs.

Overall, the discussions during the meeting reflect Shelbyville's ongoing efforts to manage land use effectively while promoting commercial development. The commission's recommendations will now be forwarded to the city council for further consideration, marking a significant move towards enhancing the local economy and infrastructure.
