HENDERSON COUNTY, Tenn. Henderson County commissioners met Tuesday for their monthly meeting.
Commissioners discussed several topics, one of them from concerned residents asking the county commission to have the board of health regulate potential large chicken farm operations.
“My understanding is that we had a health board in place since 2018, but it wasn’t up to Tennessee standards, and what we have asked them to do is to come back and look at regulating poultry farms,” said Karissa White, a Henderson County resident.
“A lot of people in this community have concerns and fears about those operations, and we are working to achieve a way that they can still exist in the county,” said Jackie Washburn, a Henderson County resident.
