1. Rezoning – Miguel Mora requests rezoning from R-1, Rural Residential to C-2,
General Commercial – 619 Allensville Road (Tax Map 38N, Group C, Parcel
4.00) (Planning Region)
This is the rezoning request that was tabled from the December meeting. It is the staff
recommendation that this request be denied at this time. There appears to be the ability of
the property owners to conduct their business as desired under the continuation of a nonconforming use. Therefore, there is no need to rezone the parcel.
D. New Business
1. Site Plan – Norvell and Poe requests site plan approval for Sevier Air & Retail
Space – Collier Drive (City)
This is an indoor trampoline park located in the Governor’s Crossing complex. The
top floor will be the trampoline area while the bottom floor, which will open out to the
parking lot of the complex, will be small retail. This site plan is complete and ready
for approval.
Site Plan – LeCraw Engineering requests site plan approval for River Landing
Shopping Center – 705 Winfield Dunn Parkway (City)
This is the final site plan for the River Landing Shopping Center. All requirements have
been met and it is ready for approval.

Site Plan – Sevier County Economic Development council requests pad ready site
approval for OTICS – Snyder Road (City)
The Sevier County Economic Development Council is responsible for developing a pad
ready site for the Japanese based OTICS corporation. This is located on the west side of
Snyder Road in the area zoned for an industrial complex. We will see the rest of the site
plan as designed by OTICS shortly. This plan is ready for approval as submitted.

Letter of Credit release – Stadium Acres (City)
At the time the final plat for the resubdivision of Stadium Acres (Lots 1-3) was approved,
the Planning Commission accepted a bond for $150,000 to guarantee completion of
“utility and roadway work” for Stadium Drive. At the meeting of November 1, 2001, the
Planning Commission released most of the bond, with the exception of $37,500 retained
for the completion of sidewalks. As the lots on the southside of Stadium Drive have
developed over the years, sidewalks have been installed as part of the site development
process. The two lots on the northside of Stadium Drive remain vacant and staff is
recommending the subdivider be released from this obligation. When the properties on
the northside of Stadium Drive develop, the Planning Commission, as part of the site plan
review process, will be able to determine where sidewalks should be located and how
they should be designed based upon the proposed use and the City’s current improvement
standards.
E. Staff Reports Reminder – Planning commissioners are among those public officials who are required to
file an ethics statement with the Tennessee Ethics Commission (in the Secretary of State’s
Office) by January 31 of each year. This can be done online at: tn.gov/sos/tec

None
NEW BUSINESS
SUBDIVISION – WALLACE SURVEYING REQUESTED FINAL PLAT APPROVAL FOR LOTS 1
AND 2 OF THE JOLINE CAGLE PROPERTY – MURPHY ROAD (CITY)
Staff Recommendation
Ms. Caskie said the subdivision, located on Murphy Road in the city were the lots that were denied a variance at
the previous BZA meeting. She said the developers had acquired the rights to purchase the required footage
from the adjacent property and all 3 lots conformed to the zoning and subdivision requirements. Staff
recommended approval.
Action Taken
A motion was made by Mayor Atchley, and seconded by Mr. Roberts, to approve the Subdivision. The motion
passed with a unanimous vote.
SUBDIVISION – TENNESSEE LAND DEVELOPMENT SERVICES REQUESTED FINAL PLAT
APPROVAL FOR OGLE/ETHERTON PROPERTY – DOLLY PARTON PARKWAY (CITY)
Staff Recommendation
Ms. Caskie explained the owner of the property, Mr. Ron Ogle, wants to deed the portion of the property the
church is on to the church. He would like to split the church from the property in front, and lease them the
existing parking lot until the church could construct its own parking area. She explained that neither Air
Museum Way nor Victoria Landing are public streets and as such, the church would not have road frontage for
subdividing. The only way Mr. Ogle could do the subdivision he wants is to provide 149 feet of road frontage
on Dolly Parton Parkway. She also mentioned that the church wanted to leave their sign on Dolly Paton
Parkway. Ms. Caskie explained the City has frontage requirements but not depth of property requirements. She
said while staff believes this is very poor planning, technically it is permissible under both subdivision and
zoning regulations.
Action Taken
Planning Commissioners discussed the regulations and requested staff to get with the Board of Mayor and
Aldermen to rectify the situation of lot depth and flag lots. A motion was made by Mayor Atchley, and
seconded by Mr. Snider, to approve the Subdivision. The motion passed with a unanimous vote.
REZONING – MIGUEL MORA REQUESTED REZONING FROM R-1, RURAL RESIDENTIAL TO
C-2, GENERAL COMMERCIAL – 619 ALLENSVILLE ROAD (TAX MAP 38N, GROUP C, PARCEL
4, PLANNING REGION)
Staff Recommendation
Ms. Caskie explained the request for a change in zoning from R-1 to C-2 was so the owner could conduct
commercial auto sales. She explained staff felt this property had the same issues as property recently dealt with
on W. Main Street. She said it was her recommendation to either table the request or deny the request until staff
is certain Mr. Mora could obtain a Motor Vehicle Commission license. She stated there was no good reason to
rezone this property to C-2.
Staff Action
A motion was made by Mayor Atchley, and seconded by Mr. Roberts, to table this request. The motion passed
with a unanimous vote.
OTHER
STAFF REPORTS
Ms. Caskie reported the results of the recent Planning Commission Retreat would be presented and discussed
with the Board of Mayor and Aldermen at the upcoming BOMA Retreat.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
