Why is annexation proposed?
As areas adjacent to the City of Franklin develop, conditions emerge that can be addressed more effectively by a broader range and higher level of services provided by the City, such as police and fire protection and solid waste collection.
The City studied areas in a pattern as a whole, where services extensions are possible, and where development activity is or may be occurring. These areas proposed for annexation were part of the 2006 Annexation Feasibility Study, which can be found here. These ordinances are recommendations to the Planning Commission and the Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
What is the role of the Planning Commission in annexation?
The Planning Commission recommends either approval or disapproval of each of the three parts above to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
What happens after the Planning Commission meeting?
For annexations, the Board of Mayor and Aldermen will (BOMA) receive the Planning Commission recommendation and will hold three readings with a public hearing, usually at the second reading. The public can address BOMA during the public hearing.

What is a rezoning?
When the zoning map currently does not support the applicant’s intended use of the property, a request is made to amend the map to change a subject property to a zoning district classification that will permit the proposed land use(s).
What is a Concept Plan or Planned Unit Developments (PUD)?
Learn more about concept plans and planned unit developments in the Administrative Manual.
What is the role of the Planning Commission in zoning or a PUD?
The Planning Commission recommends either approval or disapproval to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen of the Ordinance to rezone a property. With PUD rezonings, conditions are often attached to the final approval by Board of Mayor and Aldermen to achieve a superior design or for the phasing of infrastructure.
What happens after the Planning Commission meeting?
For Concept Plans and Rezonings, the Planning Commission is a recommending body, and the final decision rests with the Board of Mayor and Aldermen. Learn more about the steps of Concept Plans and Rezonings by reviewing flowcharts and descriptions in the Administrative Manual.
