Case Study

The Stables At Hunt Club

High-Performance Stormwater for Tight Sites

Project Overview

The Stables at Hunt Club in Gallatin, Tennessee, is a four-acre commercial office development in one of the region’s fastest-growing corridors. Developers faced a high-stakes challenge: balancing regulatory stormwater requirements while maximizing every square foot of leasable space.

With the Hendersonville corridor experiencing rapid growth, Clinard Civil Contracting and the civil engineers at 615 Design Group faced the complex task of balancing environmental compliance, site efficiency, and long-term property value. Every square foot of leasable office space mattered, yet strict stormwater regulations threatened to consume valuable land. Traditional above-ground detention basins would have compromised the site’s potential and long-term value.

The project demanded a solution that combined regulatory compliance, operational efficiency, and smart design. Jen-Hill, a Nexterra company, stepped in with expert stormwater guidance, helping engineers transform constraints into an efficient, high-performing system that preserved usable space and safeguarded long-term performance.

From the earliest planning stages, Jen-Hill provided technical guidance, helping the team explore innovative stormwater solutions that preserved usable land. By applying their expertise in underground detention and water-quality management, Jen-Hill guided the design toward a system that met regulatory standards while minimizing the need for space-consuming surface basins. Their role ensured the project could maintain functionality, maximize development potential, and support sustainable operational performance.

Approach

Nexterra's Approach

Successfully integrating the stormwater system demanded precise attention to site grading, flow management, and construction sequencing. Jen-Hill’s expertise guided the project team through these intricate challenges, ensuring stormwater objectives aligned seamlessly with construction realities. By designing an underground detention and water-quality solution, the team eliminated the need for space-consuming surface basins, unlocking every inch of usable land for leasable office space.

The system efficiently managed stormwater flows, captured sediment and debris, and maintained consistent performance even during heavy rainfall events.

By emphasizing performance, compliance, and long-term maintainability, the solution remained highly functional yet unobtrusive, preserving valuable land for office buildings and amenity areas while meeting strict regulatory and environmental standards.

This approach maximized the development’s revenue potential and demonstrated how expert guidance can turn complex stormwater challenges into practical, high-value solutions.

Outcome

The Stables at Hunt Club showcases the impact of strategic, expert stormwater planning on a complex commercial site. Jen-Hill guided Clinard Civil Contracting through every step of design and installation, ensuring regulatory compliance while preserving every square foot of usable space and maintaining the site’s visual appeal.

By combining deep technical insight with hands-on project management, the team delivered a solution on time and on budget that maximizes leasable space, maintains long-term operational performance, and turns what could have been a restrictive regulatory challenge into a showcase of efficient, high-performance infrastructure. The project stands as a clear example of how Jen-Hill transforms intricate stormwater demands into resilient, elegant solutions that protect property value and deliver enduring results.
