Mr. Moon's $37,000 Offer for Rocky Fork Right of Way Won't Budge Widow Janice Green!
Breaking News...Widow Janice Green
says NO to Moon's offer of $37,000 for
Rocky Fork Right of Way!
In Sunday's 3/12/06 paper Moon's
attorney reveals their strategy of how
Moon was willing to contribute about
$37,000 the appraised value of the
right of way (Moon has be unable to
buy for the road project) to the county,
which could be held in escrow for the
town of Nolensville (ostensibly for
Nolensville to acquire the property
through eminent domain). That's right
CONDEMN Widow, Janice Green's
property!
Talk about hiding behind the barn so that
you can get someone else to get what you
need to complete your development! This
beats everything. And if that's not bad
enough, you ask your old real estate buddy,
our interim mayor to do the dirty work!
Can't help but wonder what it would take to
get our interim mayor to do it? Can you
believe this crap (excuse me) is happening
in Nolensville? Worst of all, they publish it
right out in the open in the newspaper
for all to see and get "flat-out" mad.
Here's how the dirty strategy works...our
interim mayor condemns Janice Green's
property so his "bud" Moon can realign the
Rocky Fork road to handle the increased
traffic load his development would bring
and get Nolensville approval. This in turn
would get county's approval for his develop-
ment that is just outside town limits in county.
Gosh Gee Willie Whiskers...is everybody happy
yet? What about Mrs. Janice Green, how
happy will she be when all this comes on down
around her...thanks to Mr. Moon and his "bud"
our interim mayor.
Hold on Mr. Moon...instead of going around
behind everybody's barn...why not just stand
up and make our town an offer they cannot
resist. Yeah! How about giving town enough
land for a new recreation center and school?
You do this and your approval will no doubt
happen with some details to iron out.
Now don't start with that pitful poor boy can't
afford it nonsense...your development with
Fox Ridge will generate millions. Besides as a
Williamson County Commissioner you can go
back to the April 6th Meeting a hero--you
solved the problem!
Attention Faithful Blog Readers! This is just
one example of what you as local citizens have
to watchout for in all of the present and future
dealings in our local town government. This
can be one of the important questions we ask
on Thurs. 3/30/06, 7 PM Town Hall Meeting.
***Mr. Interim Mayor just how are you going
to deal with Mr. Moon and his "behind the
barn"strategy?? Please don't tell us that it is
already a "done deal" and that you cannot
tell us anything about the "done deal?"
Here's some more sugestions for questions:
1. What assurance do we have that you as
interim Mayor will hold all meetings openly
and report the minutes for all citizens to read?
(Tip: State Law requires it and can impose
a $50 fine.)
2. When will you appoint a new aldermen to fill
your seat and will that person be allowed to
vote his or her conscience and not be pressur-
ed to support everyone of your motions?
3. How will you convince the citizens of Nolens-
ville that you personally have no "conflict of
interest"as a full-time real estate agent voting
on all kinds of town ordinances? (Tip: the
Mayor of Franklin is a full time real estate
broker with Parks Realty and was recently
hauled into court on conflict of interest
charges.)
4. Will you continue previous mayor's "broken"
growth plan or can we depend on you to create
a new sound plan for slower growth based on
solid infrastructure being in place.
5. Since a new town budget must be approved
by July 2006 when will all citizens have an
opportunity to study your budget and be
able to question you about it?
Start now writing down your own questions
and share them with your neighbors as they
come with you to the meeting.

I am very surprised to find out that the Rocky Fork extension is not a done deal. I was under the impression that all the arrangements had already been made. I don't know if the offer for Mrs. Green's property is fair, but I'm a little surprised to find out that Clovercroft was moved without all the arrangements in place for it to connect to RF.
A question I have, is who is paying for the road extension? Is Moon also paying for that? That's going to cost a lot more than $37k. Is the county meeting on April 6 also open to the public?
More questions to come?
Who will build and pay for this road that is needed to finish Moons development?
Note to 7:14 and 8:29...alll excellent questions...Moon was to pay for right of way and engineering plans for bridge and roadway....for now the town pays for the road. If a new school and recreation center could be located on Rocky Fork the county would step in and help pay for road. Yes, the new Clovercroft road was built without all the details in place. Thank you former mayor and
planning commission. No right of way...no road...no road no approvals from town and county. Hence, no more Silver Stream??
So much for pre-planning. Where's the seasoned town planners when we need them??? Done deal? Far from it. See you at the meeting on 3/30 where everybody can ask questions and get rock solid answers????
I hear Moon wants Ms Green's property condemned so he can make tons of money. Very dangerous indeed with recent Supreme Court ruling.....who will be next?
Why has Nolensville been so quiet with county? My guess is Dugger and that other guy want the county to just slip by an approval and then you get the bad guy from the county story while some "associates" make lots of money.
Fact--In a recent past meeting, speaking about aquiring property to widen Kidd and McFarlin roads, Mayor Knapper stated the town had never acquired land by emenent domain and he didn't see them doing it in the future.
It can be assumed that included property to alighn Rocky Fork with Clovercroft.
Fact--Tom Moon and Janice Green are co-owners of property behind church.
Fact--There is another owner whose property is the land on Nolensville Rd. that stands in the way of realighning the two roads. The owner attended the
recent county planning meeting where Mr. Moon was denied everythinbg he asked for.
Why can't the Town attorney write a letter to County or send word by our Town Planner, to explain the Town reasons for their lack of action.
If they want to be respected act respectable and stop playing games with folks and put egos aside.
This is Town business and it is their job as elected and paid Town officials.
One More Fact
Knapper cut and ran and left the town being run by one of Moon's realtors, the current interim mayor Walter T Dugger.
What is his position? Doesn't that just make you feel really good?
