The 30-second brief
33 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in City of Dickson's meetings, most in capital projects and equipment. The latest, from Oct 20: Crestview Land Company and Jody Barrett requested rezoning on Crestview Park Drive from B3 and A1 to R2 for a sketch plan with possible 98 single family homes on 44.4 acres. The item was on the Planning Commission agenda for October 20, 2026, so the decision was still pending at that meeting. This is a land-use trigger for site development, civil engineering, and homebuilding follow-on work.
