Introduction

The Metro Nashville Planning Department has drafted an amendment to the Downtown Code’s Bonus Height Program (BHP), which was last updated in 2010. The BHP allows projects to earn additional building height beyond the base entitlements in exchange for incorporating identified public benefits.

The purpose of this draft BHP amendment is to better align the program with the Department's current and future goals for downtown Nashville. Click here to review a summary of the amendment. Click here to review the full text of the amendment.

Your feedback as a downtown stakeholder is essential as we move forward with this effort. Please take a few minutes to review the draft and consider how it may affect future projects that utilize the BHP and downtown as a whole. We'd love to hear your thoughts.

We appreciate your help!
