Northshore Corridor Neighbors Please Take Note
Northshore Corridor Neighbors Please take note:
Kevin Murphy, President of the Knox County Planning Alliance has asked us to make sure you are aware of the following – the preliminary Knox County Planning agenda for December.
It contains a number of aggressive planning proposals requiring major changes to zoning and impacting county infrastructure needs – particularly to already overburdened schools and roads.
Kevin’s Message:
A Very Active December Planning Meeting
While you may desire to focus on holiday activities and family in the coming weeks, there are a LOT of applications on the Planning Commission December 9th agenda. Two very large developments – one in Hardin Valley (item #16 – Couch Mill Rd) and one in South Knox County (#8 – Dry Hollow). Hardin Valley is particularly active this month with a number of concept plans.
