Williamson County, TN Growth Management Plan

Spring 2023

Part of McBride Dale Clarion Internship

Williamson County, TN is a quickly growing county south of Nashville. To manage the rapid growth, each jurisdiction drew urban growth boundaries to guide development. The next step is to establish an intergovernmental agreement to manage implementation. I prepared maps and multiple presentations for planners and other stakeholders. Effective mapping was essential for identifying conflict areas (such as between Thompson’s Station and Spring Hill) and visualizing the how the jurisdictions’ expectations for growth have changed. This project exposed me to the complications and opportunities inherent to multijurisdictional planning processes.

  • Managing and organizing a large quantity of geospatial information for multiple jurisdictions

  • Self-teaching ArcGIS Pro and integrating files ArcMap software

  • Creating presentations with jurisdiction-specific maps & points of interest
