• Leaders discuss development of hot mix asphalt plant in East Collierville (actionnews5.com) — A proposed hot mix asphalt plant on Collierville's eastern edge, near Progress and Keough roads, has Piperton and Collierville neighbors worried about air quality, noise, and traffic. Town leaders are weighing those concerns, and the project still needs several approvals, including an air quality permit from the Shelby County Health Department, so community input could influence what happens next.
