HARDEMAN COUNTY, Tenn. Residents in one community plan to fight a possible industrial addition.
Janette Moss’s family has been in Hardeman County for almost 100 years, in the community of Bethlehem.
It’s a quiet area, but they say they’re now facing an issue with a proposal that could bring Royal Oak’s charcoal company to the neighborhood.
“We’re thinking about the safety of the roads here, and we’re considering the possible pollution of the area and the Hatchie River,” Moss said.
The proposed land is off Vildo Road. The Hardeman County Commission is planning a vote next week, to rezone the area for industrial use.
