The pace of life may move a bit slower in Robertson County, but that hasn’t slowed the wheels of economic growth in this rural outpost located just north of Nashville.

But don’t let that growth concern you. County leaders here are working on a carefully thoughtout plan for development. The plan’s goal: preserve the county’s agricultural economy and quality of

If you’re looking for peaceful country living just a stone’s throw from the city, look at Cheatham County. With wooded hillsides, open farmland, and scenic rivers and lakes, the area offers an attractive setting.

The communities of Kingston Springs, Pegram, Pleasant View and

Ashland City offer a neighborly feel despite the county’s rapid expansion. Whether in a suburban or rural setting, residents here have the best of both worlds: a serene environment with easy access to city life and jobs. Robertson Coopertown | Springfi eld | White House

life while attracting businesses and jobs to designated growth areas, mostly within the county’s existing city centers.

The county’s proposed 2040 Comprehensive Growth Plan calls for school improvements, road improvements and more diverse housing options. Other goals include retaining and creating jobs, adding more higher-paying jobs and attracting a diverse population and workforce.

Johnson Electric and Martinrea Fabco also call this area home. In addition to the growing economic picture in Robertson County, there’s also the way of life that residents are determined to maintain. From local treasures like Burdett’s Tea Shop & Trading Company to the Shade Tree Farm (where you pick your own apples), don’t expect the pace of life here to change anytime soon.

Pegram is a great place to raise a family. The town has its own special treasures. Popular places include Finch’s Country Store and Mud Puddle Pottery Studio (which offers pottery workshops and classes).

The county seat of Ashland City sits on the bank of the Cumberland River. The city’s award-winning parks and recreation program earned the Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for its conservation efforts involved with the Cumberland River Bicentennial Trail. Under the guidance of Renaissance Ashland City, planners are working to carefully preserve the city’s heritage while embracing the benefi ts of progress.

THE LATEST IN HOME FIRE SAFETY

Brandpoint

hile the office, school and home now share one roof, keeping your house and family safe has never been more important. Thanks to enhanced safety technology, you can better protect against the threats of smoke, fire and carbon monoxide (CO), allowing you to go about your busy lifestyle without skipping a beat. When upgrading your protection, make sure to install alarms with the latest safety enhancements. Alarms should be installed on every level of the home, including in each bedroom and outside every sleeping area.

10-year battery

According to the National Fire Protection Association, 60% of fire deaths occur in homes without working smoke alarms and dead batteries cause 25% of smoke alarm failures, making it crucial to regularly check your alarms and replace the batteries. Helping to address this issue, one of the greatest advancements in alarm technology in recent years has been the development of 10-year sealed battery alarms. Offering convenient protection, this enhanced technology eliminates the risk of having an alarm deactivate due to battery removal, making battery replacements and low-battery chirps a thing of the past. Upgrading to 10-year alarms will give you one less thing to worry about.

Combination smoke and CO alarm

For ultimate home safety, select a combination smoke and CO alarm for protection from the threats of smoke, fire and CO. Known as the silent killer, CO is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas, making it impossible to detect without an alarm. A variety of smoke and CO alarms, including hardwired, combination and 10-year battery-powered models, are available to meet specific needs and local requirements. With the convenience and simplicity of one device, the combination alarm helps to protect you from three potentially deadly threats.

Voice and location

Alarms with voice and location technology use a loud, pre-recorded human voice that lets you know the type and location of danger when fire or CO is detected. Studies show that children aged 6 to 10 are awakened more readily by voice rather than a beeping alarm, making this technology ideal for homes with young kids. Plus, voice and location alarms, such as the First Alert Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Voice and Location, help save time by identifying where smoke or CO is detected in the home, so you can determine the fastest and safest way out.

At a time when home safety technology has never been smarter, upgrade your level of protection today. For more information about home safety technology enhancements, visit www.firstalert.com.
