The proposed connection to Gray Hendrix is in a very unsafe location not to mention prone to backups and not safe for pedestrians use as it is. This road can not support the added traffic and god forbid this goes through and anyone who lives there has kids that try to walk to the middle school. It will be an accident waiting to happen.

No way! The last thing the already over crowded Oak Ridge Hwy needs is 400 plus more cars Our roads are not made for this type of traffic and schools are already overwhelmed. No thank you. Move on

We do not want 200+ apartments on Gray Hendrix. As a homeowner in the Hidden Meadows subdivision, the area is already full of heavy traffic due to the two schools (Karns Elementary and Middle School) plus GCA down Oak Ridge. This area cannot sustain another 200+ vehicles roaming through daily, not to mention the schools and resources in Karns are already at capacity. Go build your properties and make your money somewhere else instead of targeting an already too small and too full community.

I oppose this proposal. The infrastructure in Karns cannot support such a large development. The traffic on Oak Ridge Highway is already congested. During rush hour, traffic moves at a crawl from Schaad Road thru Byington Beaver Ridge intersection.

I do not oppose the change in plan designation for both parcels to TN. However, I am against the proposed zoning change to RB for several reasons. First, the estimated traffic impact is likely too high, especially during weekday mornings and afternoons given the current access to Gray Hendrix Road. This road has a sharp downhill curve in one direction and a stop sign at Oak Ridge Highway only a short distance in the other direction, which raises safety concerns. Additionally, RB zoning would permit a density of dwelling units and potentially multistory/multifamily dwellings, which would not be compatible with the surrounding residential areas that are zoned Agricultural and RA. In my opinion, development under the existing Agricultural or RA zoning would be preferable and more compatible with the surrounding residential areas.
