Planning for a better tomorrow
Claiborne County Tennessee has enacted minimal subdivision regulations to help manage growth within the County. The Planning Commission keeps citizens and those interested aware those regulations, provides information on other information affecting property use and development in the county, and documents previous subdivision approvals and public discussion of subdivision regulations as a service to the public.
