I am writing to you today in opposition of the proposed final plat for 8-SC-23-F off Hardin Valley Road. I am opposed to the five driveways that will connect to Mission Hill Lane. The entrance and exit to these homes can easily be on the road that is already paved for that development (Lantern Park). Not only does this cause unnecessary congestion, but safety issues as well.
Also, this request for the final plat goes above the 25 home rule when presenting final approval to the board. In addition, the planning commission has many original variances requested for this area that have not been considered.
I am not opposed to the growth of this area. In fact, I'm excited for it. However, it needs to be done in a way that keeps the residents in mind. It needs to be planned in a smart way to assure growth is sustainable and infrastructure can keep up.
Please, planning commission, set a precedence for future builders in the Knox County area, specifically Hardin Valley area. Builders need to follow the processes and rules for approval. Keep them in line, please! Deny this request that includes the five lots dumping into Mission Hill Lane. Thank you for listening.

I respectfully ask that you deny this final plat that includes 5 lots dumping into Mission Hill Lane. This will only cause congestion and dangerous situations with residents and their visitors parking on Mission Hill lane. I don't believe that every square foot of any plat has to be turned into a lot. Let's leave a little green for our future generations. Don't let the almighty dollar control this decision. Thank you for your time.

Hello Ms. Hillman,
I would like to make a comment on the upcoming proposal to rezone an area along Tipton Station rd near South Doyle HS. I personally disagree with such a proposal and would hope that it does not move forward for development. The road and the area are already overcrowded with traffic and another 40-60 homes will add to the problem. School traffic is also a problem although only during the school year and around the hours of schools opening and closing. Roads are generally narrow in the area as are the sidewalks.
Feel free to contact me if needed.
Regards,
Bryan Jay Hoover

Commissioners, the illegal and reckless concept plan approval for Lantern Park is in litigation awaiting judgement. The illegal administrative approval of a final plat required a second lawsuit. If this is approved, we will file a third lawsuit against the developer and planning commission for not following proper procedures and rules. This final plat request is in disregard to the concept plan litigation as well as planning commission procedures and rules. It is your job to ensure applicants, whoever they may be, follow all laws, procedures, and rules for application and to ensure development is properly planned and benefits it’s surroundings. This 95 home HOA requests for you to deny this final plat application or consider a minimum of 60 day extension to allow for a proper application and fees to be filed as well as the outcome of the concept plan litigation. Thank you
