Brown County Commissioners sued over farmland rezoning

A lawsuit against the Brown County Commissioners claims the former commissioners did not give proper consideration to rezoning objections of some property owners. Those owners opposed the rezoning of nearly 86 acres of farmland in Nashville. 

Landowner Jimmy Tilton’s property was rezoned last month from residential to general business. Tilton wants to develop the land into a tourist venue. 

The lawsuit by several County residents and condominium owners states the rezoning was strongly opposed by people who live nearby. 

Commissioner Ron Sanders voted against rezoning, but he was outvoted by former commissioners Blake Wolpert and Jerry Pittman, whose terms ended last year.

Tim Clark and Kevin Patrick’s terms began this year.

The plaintiffs want the decision reversed and the rezoning proposal denied. New Commissioner Tim Clark said the commission would not comment on pending litigation.

According to the county website, the next Brown County Board of Commissioners meeting is scheduled for Jan. 15 at 6 p.m. at the Salmon Room in Nashville.
