MOSUL, Iraq – Two Tennessee National Guard soldiers from Murfreesboro’s 269th Military Police Company have been awarded Purple Hearts for injuries sustained while serving in Iraq. Spec. Caleb Dutton of Mt. Juliet and Spec. Robert Fletcher of Rogersville were both injured when a 55gallon drum filled with explosives detonated near their patrol on March 25. The soldiers were presented their awards in a July 21 ceremony by Lt. Col. Efrin Delacruz, commander of the 607th Military Police Battalion, to which the 269th is assigned. Delacruz thanked the two guardsmen
for their “bravery, courage, and service,” pointing out that the Purple Heart is one of military’s oldest and most prestigious awards, established by Gen. George Washington during the Revolutionary War. Six Purple Hearts have been awarded to members of the 269th MP Company since they were deployed in November 2008. The four previous awards were given to soldiers attacked by gunmen while inspecting an Iraqi Police Station in Mosul in February. The unit is scheduled to return to Tennessee in November 2009.

What do YOU think about traffic in Mt. Juliet... schools and education... business and industry... animal control or our city leaders? Email
[email protected]
Local Voices To the Editor, In your August 12, 2009 article, I found it interesting that the city representatives pushing the implementations of traffic cameras declined to identify at what intersection the “22
cars running a red light in an eight hour period” occurred. Supposedly they failed to identify them because the project is in the early stages. I suspect they chose to not identify the intersection because it could be a
marketing nightmare once Mt. Juliet citizens realize that the intersections in question are the ones leading to their actual neighborhoods.
Why is Mount Juliet a one road town? Has anyone noticed that everything in this city is on one road? I
own a small piece of land on Clemmons Road, it is dead in the middle of town and inside the city limits for many years. We do not have running water, elect (sic), sewer, nothing, we might as well be on Mars. When we try to bring business to our road we are told it would be too much traffic, yet these same people vote yes to put everything on the most heavily congested, accident prone strip of road in the city. A three year old survey, (before Providence, Lowes, and Wall Mart) (sic) showed that there was (sic) 86 cars of MJR for every 1 on Clemmons road. That number is more likely to be over 100 to 1 now. With the reverse L almost half way completed and a future bypass to the new Beckwith
interchange I feel our commissioners should start looking to get traffic off of MJR. Mount Juliet is a city that desperately needs some elbow room. Are we going to fool around and let Lebanon sneak right up to the back door of city hall? I appreciate our mayors efforts and the improvements that have been made in the last few years, she has worked very hard for all of us and brought great changes to our city, I just feel its time to stop piling on one road. If we are serious about moving some of the traffic off of MJR then lets do it. Lets put the YMCA or other business on this new road and give MJR a break.

Helping Kids Succeed in Life Through Sports
By Tomi L. Wiley Managing Editor One way or another, a giant flag pole with an American flag could be the next iconic symbol of Mt. Juliet if city commissioners approve a site plan recommended by city planning commissioners last week. A plan to have a cell phone tower belonging to Wireless Properties, located at 555 Pleasant Grove Road in Mt. Juliet, redesigned as a flag pole was unanimously approved for a positive recommendation by the Mt. Juliet Planning Commission on Thursday night, with Commissioner Art Giles recusing himself from the vote. The 180-foot pole has five broadband antennas and should be sufficient to provide service for the area “for many, many years
to come,” according to a representative. The flag will be illuminated at night. The site plan for Providence Vet Center, located on Belinda Parkway, was also unanimously approved. A sign variance request by attorney Yancy Belcher, located at 2036 N. Mt. Juliet Road, to remove Main Street District Overlay requirements was deferred due to the possible removal of those overlay requirements. Under the current ordinance the planning commission does not have permission to grant a sign variance. Also deferred was a review of the Final Master Development Plan and Preliminary Plat for Paddocks Phase 2b, located on N. Mt. Juliet Road. Review of the final plats for several Providence phases were unanimously
approved. A Land Use Plan Amendment from Neighborhood Commercial to Medium Density Residential and Rezone request from RS-40 to RS-20 for the Mary Jane Poindexter property, located at 138 West Division Street, was approved by a vote of 4 – 2 for a positive recommendation to the city commission, with Lori Landry and Larry Searcy voting against. Nancy Poindexter, of Gallatin, wants to place a prefabricated, modular home on the property in order to live closer to her mother. Numerous items on the consent agenda were unanimously approved. For an entire list contact Planning Secretary Jennifer Hamblen at 615- 773-6237 or email jhamblen@cityofmtjuliet. org.

Former Lady Bear Standout Butler to speak in Mt Juliet
Jim Bradshaw suggested $35 per month for everyone, equally. City Attorney Jason Holleman said that MTAS (Municipal Technical Advisory Service) guidelines recommend a reimbursement program in which city officials would keep track of mileage accrued while on city-related business, keep receipts and be reimbursed. Elam said she can’t keep up with mileage and wanted to be able to “affirm” she used that amount of gas money instead of keeping track of it. The ordinance passed on first reading as amended by a vote of 3 -2, with Sellers and Bradshaw voting against. The only other business items on the agenda were, after lengthy discussion, deferred: an ordinance to adopt a new Title 3 to the Mt. Juliet Code in reference to Animal Control (deferred since May) and an ordinance to include the City-owned property located on York Road as part of the Mt. Juliet park system. Elam suggested using 64 of the total 66 acres as “passive” park areas for wildlife preservation and bird watching. The other two acres are currently being
then hey, it’s suddenly not only discussed but voted on. I think it’s a shame that the business owners and developers – the very people who this ordinance will directly affect – couldn’t be there to listen and have a say-so in this decision. That’s a shame, but I’m not surprised at her (Elam) just ‘suspending the rules’ to get this through. Seems like business as usual.” The ordinance to make the Town Center Overlay optional rather than mandatory was approved on first reading by a vote of 3 – 2, with District 3 Commissioner Ed Hagerty and District 2 Commissioner Will Sellers voting against. In an ordinance concerning the Board of Commissioners Policy and Procedures Manual, Elam attempted to double her salary against that of the commissioners, netting her $600 per year compared to commissioners’ $300 per year, $1,000 per year for “education” compared to $500 per year for commissioners, and $50 per month for a gas allowance compared to $25 for commissioners.

Reflections from an Old Friend What an Awesome Place to Call Home I got to thinking recently after completing a year long leadership program just how blessed we are to call Mt. Juliet home. As part of the leadership program I got to spend time in twelve other counties over a year long period. As a result, I got to compare these other communities to ours. Needless to say, I came away feeling even better about Mt. Juliet. Of course this could be because I’m so partial to Mt. Juliet. But the more I thought about it the more I realized just how blessed we all are. Every corner I turn in Mt. Juliet finds yet another reason to love Mt. Juliet and its residents even more. I have a personal pride and built in protection mode for Mt. Juliet and its residents. Say one bad thing about Mt. Juliet and you’ll hear ten positive things about Mt. Juliet from me. Now that’s an ear full for those of you that know me well. I just love this place and its people. The wonderful thing about Mt. Juliet is that it only gets better with time. Our residents have worked hard to make Mt. Juliet what it is today and its now our time in the sun. Many others are now coming to learn and love what others have known for years, that Mt. Juliet is the greatest place to live in the world. Let’s continue to build upon our wonderful heritage by supporting each other and our business community. As I’ve mentioned before, this is one message I can’t let get stagnant. Like an old house in a subdivision, if we let one window get and stay broken in one house, then before you know it all of the windows will be broken. We must maintain our image, character, integrity, charm, southern hospitality, support for one another, and loving hearts to keep Mt. Juliet on the right course. Mt. Juliet’s in store for some wonderful things if we work together as a team. Our team is Mt. Juliet and we must support our team and all of its players to stay on the course of victory. What an awesome place to call home and share with my family, friends and visitors.
