To the north terminus of Debusk Lane
Proposed Street Name
Frontier House Lane
Reason for Change

The road name "Debusk Lane" is currently used at two different locations within Knox County, which is a significant concern for the Knox County Emergency Communications District (911) due to the potential for delayed emergency services. The location of "Debusk Lane" in Powell will remain as the official street name, consequently the location of "Debusk Lane" in west Knoxville requires a different street name. At 911's request, Planning contacted the owners of the 11 properties abutting Debusk Lane for their opinion on the new street name and responses were received from seven properties. "Frontier House Lane" received six votes and was the preferred name following three rounds of voting.

Disposition Summary
Approve the name change of Debusk Lane to Frontier House Lane as requested by the Knox County Emergency Communications District.
Staff Recommendation
Approve the name change of Debusk Lane to Frontier House Lane as requested by the Knox County Emergency Communications District.
1. The Knox County Emergency Communications District (Knox 911) has proposed the name change for this street to avoid potential delayed emergency services.
2. The name 'Debusk Lane' is currently used in two different locations - the subject street segment within the Debusk Park subdivision (zip code 37922) and a right-of-way in Powell serving several businesses between W Beaver Creek Drive and Powell Drive (zip code 37849). This creates a safety concern for emergency services.
3. The Planning Commission has recently approved the name 'Debusk Lane' for the right-of-way in Powell, which has been used informally since the 1980s (5-A-24-SNC). The subject segment now needs a new name.
4. Approval of this request will cause seven parcels and one business address to be reassigned (Exhibit B). On behalf of Knox 911, Planning coordinated with the eleven property owners adjacent to the subject street for their opinion on the proposed street name change. 'Frontier House Lane' received six votes and was the preferred name following three rounds of voting.
5. Planning has received no objections to the renaming of this right-of-way.
6. The name change meets all requirements of the County's Code of Ordinances (Chapter 54, Article II).
