I am a beneficial owner of this property. I fully understand many concerns that the community members may have regarding this property. I am not trying to or intending to change the structure of the community. In fact there is a property four parcels to the east from this parcel that has done what I’d like to replicate. There is a need for middle housing in all of Knoxville, and this property was a dilapidated, and abandoned property with infestations of vermin and other wild animals. I purchased this property from a tax lien sale in order to help bring middle housing to more properties in Knoxville. My intent with this property is to build single family homes that will accept section 8 vouchers. There is a serious problem in this community and a shortage of reasonable accommodations for section 8 voucher holders, and I intend to fix it one property at a time. In order to help bring Knoxville up, we need to raise the tide and lift all boats.
