Gallatin Pike Gallatin Pike SP amendments go to Metro Council July 7

The Planning Commission approved amendments to the Gallatin Pike SP by a 10-0 vote on June 11; the Metropolitan Council will consider those amendments during its July 7 regular meeting.  The Council approved the original SP in July 2007, and several amendments in August 2008; the SP addresses how land will be used, where new buildings can be placed and how large they can be, parking, street access, signage, landscaping and other important issues in the Gallatin Road corridor from Main Street to Briley Parkway in East Nashville

Dickerson Pike sign standards updated

The Metropolitan Council approved an amended Urban Design Overlay on July 15, 2008, which provides standards for new signs along Dickerson Pike in lower East Nashville.  That UDO is intended to reduce visual clutter and encourage appropriate scale and design.
