Condition 5# was revised to clarify Knox County will submit the street name change application.

This is a request for a 27-lot single family subdivision that will be accessed off both forks of S Gallaher View Road at Westland Drive. In 2001, S Gallaher View Road was realigned at Westland Drive for safety improvements (eastern fork). The original S Gallaher View Road was not renamed (western fork). A street name change is conditioned for the original S Gallaher View Road for emergency responders.

The proposed development will not create any new roads. The 13 lots on the eastern fork of S Gallaher View Rd, which is a classified major collector, will consolidate their access to 3 driveways. Lots 1-6 will consolidate their access to 3 driveways. Conditions of the zoning require the western fork of S Gallaher View Rd to be widened to 20 ft prior to platting.

This property was formerly a propane gas storage and distribution facility with a rail spur in the southern portion. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment was done in September, 2025. No evidence of recognized environmental conditions was found, and no other assessments are required.
