The Metro Council of Nashville and Davidson County has approved a rezoning ordinance to change the zoning of 205 Joyner Avenue from RS5 (Single-Family Residential) to RM20-A-NS. The rezoning applies to 0.17 acres, approximately 120 feet west of Foster Avenue. This change allows for higher-density multi-family residential development while prohibiting non-owner-occupied short-term rentals. The ordinance aligns with the city’s urban infill strategy, supporting housing expansion in South Nashville.
This rezoning enables higher-density residential development in a rapidly growing area while ensuring long-term housing availability by restricting non-owner-occupied short-term rentals. It aligns with Nashville’s efforts to increase housing options and maintain neighborhood stability.
