Park Development Proposal
October 01, 2024 --
LPRI Board of Directors is currently in negotiations with a local property developer regarding the purchase of the remaining corporately-owned properties within the park and develop them into middle-income homes. There are currently two model home plans to choose from as well as the ability to build custom homes. The developer has a lifetime love of the area as he grew up in middle Tennessee, and he's uniquely qualified to address our growing pains. Among the topics of conversation have been the roads, utilities, recreational areas, walking paths, and wildlife habitats, as well as the overall health of our lakes and dams, which translates into increased property values for everyone.
