Warren County Fiscal Court - Special Hearing on Rezoning

The Warren County Fiscal Court held a special hearing on August 13, 2026, to discuss a rezoning request involving McDonald's USA LLC. The hearing focused on opposition to changing the zoning from general business to highway business for a proposed McDonald's location. Concerns raised included potential noise, lighting nuisances, tree removal, and the impact on the quiet residential area nearby. The opposition requested protective barriers such as fences and mature trees, though the current proposal only includes a standard incompatible use buffer with trees and lighting restrictions as required by zoning ordinance. No binding agreement for additional fencing was made. The vote on the rezoning ordinance will occur at a future regular fiscal court meeting. No contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this hearing.
