Taco Bell coming soon to Greene County

FRANKLIN TWP. Another Mexican-themed restaurant is possibly on its way to Greene County.

With the addition of Don Patron Mexican Grill highly anticipated, the Greene County community recently received more news about another possible expansion in eating choices in the area.

Franklin Township supervisors on Feb. 24 gave conditional approval for plans of constructing a Taco Bell restaurant, which is expected to be built in front of the Greene Plaza next to the Wendys restaurant.

The plans for the construction of a Taco Bell were presented earlier and went through the review process of the township planning commission.

Charter Foods North LLC of Talbott, Tenn., will be constructing the Taco Bell, according to the supervisors.

The plans include a 2,465 square-foot restaurant on the lot that was formerly the site of the Amerilube and include a parking area with 21 spaces.

The conditional approval came with 16 conditions that needed to be met in order to pass. Requirements for approval include: agreeing to conform to the Americans with Disabilities Act in regard to parking; receive a highway occupancy permit if a new sanitary sewer line is installed, which will require work on Route 21; the developer identifies the location of storm lines already existing; provide signs for traffic circulation through the driveway, propose outside lighting that would not create a glare on properties near the establishment and indicate erosion and sedimentation controls.

Access into the future restaurant will be through the Greene Plaza parking lot where Big Lots and other stores are located.

Construction is scheduled to begin in the spring, and the Taco Bell restaurant is slated to be open by fall.
