Major Milestones
​Public engagement for the Master Land Use Plan has provided residents and stakeholders an opportunity to learn about the current state of Wilson County and forecasts for the future population growth and development. The process began in 2022 and was briefly paused on hold while while the County and the cities of Lebanon, Mt. Juliet, and Watertown revised their urban growth boundaries (UGB).
