# City of Franklin, 4540 Peytonsville Road Neighborhood Meeting 10-8-2026

The City of Franklin held a neighborhood meeting on October 8, 2026, to present a proposed rezoning and development plan for an approximately 185-acre site at 4540 Peytonsville Road. The developers, Summit and prospective builder Signature Homes, described a plan for 105 single-family homes, with about 70% of the site—approximately 111 acres—preserved as open space, along with civic space, trails, sidewalks, and tree-canopy protection. The proposal includes dedicating right-of-way for a future Caruthers Parkway, two site access points, and required extensions of public water and sewer infrastructure. The developers said the project would include six detention ponds and eight water-quality ponds, and that a traffic impact study had been submitted for review. No contracts, purchases, budget allocations, votes, or procurement decisions were identified; this was an informational neighborhood meeting, not an approval hearing.

Residents raised concerns about existing and future stormwater impacts, traffic volumes and turning movements on Peytonsville Road, emergency access, blasting, wells and septic systems, and the potential effect on the area’s scenic character. The developers said detailed engineering and construction planning, including geotechnical review, would occur later in the process. The anticipated review schedule includes a joint conceptual work session on December 10, 2026, Planning Commission consideration and public comment on January 28, 2027, and subsequent readings and a public hearing before the Board of Mayor and Aldermen. The rezoning and development plan remain subject to review and approval; no action was taken at this meeting.
