Etowah Valley project draws traffic and density debate
Henderson County planners review a master plan for Tribute at Etowah Valley, a 83.5 acre golf resort expansion with 174 acres of land. The proposal adds 200 lots with two dwellings each, new access drives, 40 acres of open space, a 6000 square foot clubhouse, and extensive roads. Opponents cite off site traffic and safety concerns on Brickyard Road and surrounding routes. Planning Board members push for broader review, noting the plan may conflict with the county comprehensive plan and land development code. County officials hint at possible density reductions in future phases.
