Traders Bank seeks branch in Shelbyville

Tullahoma-based Traders Bank is requesting approval of a site plan for a 3,400 square foot branch office to be addressed by the Shelbyville Planning Commission next week.

Blueprints for the site show that the proposed building, which would be the bank's first location in the Bedford County market, would be located at the corner of North Main Street and Hickory Drive.

The lot would take up 0.77 acres, with a total of 25 parking spaces and three drive-up lanes.

Planning and engineering comments from city staff notes that the previous building was on a septic tank and that the owner may cross North Main with a bore to access sanitary sewer, but will be required to obtain a permit from the Tennessee Department of Transportation and provide a profile showing all utility crossings.

Also on next week's agenda will be a grading and site plan request from K&L Investments for 415 Lane Parkway and a request for site plan approval for West Cedar Street Townhouses at the southeast corner of West Cedar and and Sevier streets, as well as two rezoning requests.

The commission will also meet in its capacity as the board of zoning appeals to consider an administrative review for lots located at the corner of Austin Avenue and Midland Road, requested by John L. Anderton.

The commission meets next Thursday at 6 p.m. in the courtroom of the city hall annex (Shelbyville police department).
