Residents,
Please keep in mind, in February, 2016 the City of Piperton passed Ordinance Number 259-15, regulating the discharging of firearms within the city limits.
The Ordinance does permit the discharge of firearms for lawful purposes, by City of Piperton property owners and/or guests of said property owner while in possession of written authorization, providing the property is zoned as RC (Rural Conservation), and is not within 200 yards of a development or a habitation, without the owner’s permission.
The use of firearms are permitted when engaging in lawful hunting activities under rules promulgated by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, and permits the lawful use of firearms within an indoor approved shooting/firing range.
A copy of said Ordinance 259-15 may be reviewed during regular business hours at the Piperton Administration Office located at 3725 Highway 196 South, Suite B.
