Grant to Renovate Don Fox Park in Lebanon

The City of Lebanon is applying for a grant through the State of Tennessee. The City of Lebanon would be responsible for 50% of the funds. The State would reimburse the city for the other 50% ($700,000 in total).

The renovation would include:

• Resurfacing the area around the playground equipment.

• Converting the current wading pool to a splash pad.

• A sidewalk around the playground area.

Improving Wilson County infrastructure

Infrastructure is a focus of the mayor’s talks for this year with April’s session addressing utilities and broadband.

Rezoning ordinance removed from Lebanon City Council agenda

The rezoning of 2770 Tucker’s Gap Road from commercial service to commercial office. The City Council planned to vote on a second reading during the meeting. The rezoning discussion was removed from the meeting agenda.
