Another Step Closer for the Clarksville Marina

City of ClarksvilleClarksville, TN – Mayor Kim McMillan received notification that the Army Corps of Engineers has approved the lease agreement between the City of Clarksville and Cumberland River, LLC.

“Corps approval is a critical step in moving forward with development,” explained Mayor McMillan. “Once the City Council approved the agreement on Tuesday night, we immediately moved forward to sign and forward it to the Corps for review. To receive approval within 48 hours is a direct result of our hard work and commitment to completing this project. We are very appreciative of the wonderful working relationship we have with the Corps and their enthusiasm for the project and we look forward to working with them to bring it to completion.”

According to the Mayor, the Corps is the ultimate authority on all building projects on Tennessee waterways. Without Corp approval, the project would have been delayed at best. The quick approval process means that the City and developer can move into the building phase.

“The marina project, along with the restaurant at Liberty Park, is going to offer a new and unique experience for Clarksvillians. It will also bring new and exciting opportunities for tourist and economic development. Along with our development partner, we are looking forward to creating this special place for Clarksville,” Mayor McMillan said.
