Trees are disappearing on Wolf River Boulevard

Crews are clearing a large number of trees along Wolf River Boulevard near Germantown’s western edge, causing some of the 24,000 drivers passing the area to question what is going on with that space.

The Fulmer family owns 190 acres stretching from Neshoba Road to Wolf River Boulevard, primarily east of Riverdale Road. But in 2019, Cypress Realty Holdings Company asked for 15 acres to be rezoned from residential to office.

When the rezoning was granted six years ago, three 5,000-square-foot medical buildings were discussed. However, plans for those buildings were never submitted to Germantown.
