Planning Commission - Regular Meeting

Ladies and gentlemen, it is 7:02 p.m. Central Daylight Time, and we're going to call to order this the June the 12th, 2025 meeting of the Dixon County Planning Commission. Okay, brother Ramy, if you would direct our minds, I'd appreciate it. Yes, let us pray. Father God, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for this day. We thank you for allowing us to serve the county that we live in. We ask that you lead us and guide us as only you can. Everything that we do, be acceptable with your sight. Jesus name we pray and ask it all. Amen. Amen. Mr. Hayes, would you call the role? Todd Barry here. Tina Ferris here. Darren Green here. Todd Lindsay. Robert Quz here. Sir, Tommy Brown here. Jeff Chase here. Randy Ramy here. Gary Peer. Amanda Barry here. Patrick Reagan here. Mitchell Harden. Mr. chairman. Uh, according to the call of the role, a quorum is present to do business. The next thing I'd like to do is thank you all who are visitors for, uh, visiting us this evening. If you haven't signed in on the signin sheet, I know it's only been out the last three or four minutes to go ahead and please do that on your way out if you weren't able to do so on your way in. So, we'll have a record of your visit. Uh did anyone uh ask to make a comment from members of the public to the commission? Yes, Mr. Chair. Okay. Well, we'll we'll address that very shortly then. Before that, I want to talk about the minutes of the last meeting. Thank you. Okay. Here's the two citizens who are going to address us.

That's good. All right. Does anyone else have any comments or amendations to the minutes of the last meeting? I do, sir. Um, yes, ma'am. Miss Barry, since I'm fairly new, um, and this was a a hot topic at the last meeting. There were several things that I felt like may needed to be added in because I'm not sure where this situation is headed. Okay. So, I'm not quite sure how to do that. So, well, if you would specifically address the places in the minutes where you feel the record is incomplete, we'll try to work with staff to get those put into the final minutes that'll be published. Okay. Um, on page six, um, at the very bottom, someone had asked, I believe it may have been, uh, Mr. Barry, about the building details from Mr. James and he stated those sizes and what had been added on. Uhhuh. They it did not make the meeting or or the minutes. Sorry. Um I had addressed the Birch traffic study, the setback of the newest building that was being constructed without the permit. Um the building, the newest building, what the purpose was. Uh there was no stop work order and the state electrical reference. those were not in the minutes and I know that it's going to the commission so wasn't sure if they get a copy of the minutes but I thought those they certainly have one available for their reference if if they choose. Uh all right. Does anybody else have any comments? My my comment about that point you made is I think what we had was that not a was a traffic survey instead of actual traffic study. Is that correct? Traffic assessment could could have been assessment. Okay. The the minutes do

need to change to reflect that cuz those are two separate terms of art. Okay. One is considerably more detailed than the other. Okay. All right. Uh do do any of the other commissioners have any objection if things what Miss Barry has addressed are added into the minutes before we give them our final approval? Well, now I that's what I was I was going to ask for a little guidance here. I I didn't know if Mr. Hayes if you think we need to have amended and revised minutes last month or can we just say that the commission asked for those things to be added to the minutes and just go on from there? Yes. Okay. Well, I assume Jeff, you is is that a motion then to uh include in the minutes of the meeting last month the that that the uh that the all those things that we've addressed here be included in the minutes of this meeting? Yes, sir. Does everyone have a a gist of what the motion is? And is there a second? Second. Okay. Commissioner Ferris seconds. All right. Does everyone feel for what we're voting on to to to be more explicit in the language of especially on pages five and six of the minutes of the last meeting. Mr. CS, I would like a reread of what was stated. Let's make sure that we are clear. I I will agree that. And Miss Barry, if you would address what you addressed before in a way that everybody including me can understand it fully. Okay. So the first one um Mr. James had given

building details as to what was previously on the property and he uh came back and said what the size of the building was. I don't know that size off the top of my head. Okay. But I thought that was important since it was followed up by the 12,000 square ft of lines and sprinklers. So, we know the size of the building. Um, sorry, six at the bottom. Sorry. toward the bottom, Curtis. Yeah, it's the very last line of page six. And it was actually page six and seven. And now I going to say and it spills over into page seven, right? Okay. You you think that you think we've addressed it, Mr. Ash? Okay. All right. Okay. I have one other amendation I wanted to bring up with the minutes and that was right at the end where it mentioned Mr. Barry abstained. I think it's important for the minutes to reflect that the reason for that was that the applicant being inclined of his and not an unwillingness to vote and participate. But that is correct. Yes, sir. When I was in that position, I always wanted it to reflect why I had to abstain. So I I want to extend that to the membership now. All right. Well, so if everybody understands what we're voting on, I would request that those in favor of the amendments as restated state I. I. Those opposed say no. The opinion of the chair, the eyes have it. The minutes as amended are approved. And

now we're going to move on to public comment. And I have two citizens who have signed up to comment publicly. Those are Mr. Jared Gray, Mr. Russell Crowe. Uh, I don't think this will be a problem, but we do we only allow 30 minutes for public comment. So, if both of you will strain yourselves to 15 minutes a piece, we'll be greatly appreciated. Total per person. Yeah, three minutes per person. Good. I All right, let's let's keep them to three minutes a piece if we can. Mr. Gray, if you would like to come and address the commission, the floor will be yours for three minutes. the instrument of one of the Would you like to come up here to the front where you can be heard better? Okay. All right. Good evening. I'm Jared Gray, civil design consultants. Um, I am the engineer of record for a project that is uh before you tonight. And uh so that particular project is the Nashville Getaway RV. Um reszoning. Again, we are asking for uh reszoning for that particular uh parcel of property to allow for an RV resort. Uh we have looked at the traffic in a traffic analysis. Everything checks off good there. We have talked with T DOT have a current uh meeting scheduled with them. Again, we

are not asking for anything more than one access at this time without replatting the parcel, which again they will they will grant and we will obviously take anything that they require into the site plan component, which again will come back to you in that regard. Uh for water and sewer, uh the water uh authority of Dixon County has been contacted and I've had meetings with Mr. Michael Rogers with the water authority. Uh we will again site plan uh related come back and whenever you see that site plan you'll see all of the septic uh information for the soils. Preliminarily the soils do look conducive. So again uh I'm here to answer any questions that you may have whenever we get to that point but wanted to make sure that uh you knew that I was here. We do request a favorable recommendation to county commission. Thank you. Thank you, sir. Uh Mr. Crow, uh you now have uh three minutes for your issue at this time. Thank my name is Russell Crow. I'm one of the property owners of record um relating to this project. Um I just had a couple concerns because I received a letter that uh notifying of a change and had this nice information to contact Mr. Boon if I had any questions um two weeks ago since he was a businessman also instead of trying to call him during the day or call him on

his off time send him a nice email text message introduced myself said when you have a moment I'd like to talk to you until I called over uh three days ago to verify this meeting was still going on I've never heard a thing from him So that throws some red flags to me about whether he's good for Dixon County. That's all I have to say at the moment. Well, I'll just say, Mr. Crow, you you've certainly made your concerns part of the record. And with that, we're going to get into the items for tonight's agenda. Starting with item number one, which is the final plaid of the redivision of lot one of Spurlock Acres Subdivision tax map 112, parcel 8.10, 3.15 acres, Buddy Road, Burns, Tennessee, A1 Agriculture. So, we need we need somebody. Let's uh Yeah. Okay. Here comes just the man we need to hear from this. All right. We did Spurlock Acres, I guess, about three years ago. Right. And things have changed since then. Of course, y'all know uh Jones Creek Road and uh Buddy Road have sewer available now. Yes. We did this lot. We wanted to get two lots out of it anyway, but because of that drain, we couldn't get the soil there. But now uh since sewer is available and I talked to Michael Rogers, I cleared this all with him before we uh proceeded with it that they will give them allow them to have access to that uh that trunk line across the road for the sewer. Mhm. So that that's making this possible. Yeah. I imagine most of the commissioners are familiar with this spot as that sort of little

swale there going through Buddy Road from where you turn there at the end of uh um of Rock Church Road and go left if you're going from Nashville toward Dixon and about halfway back through there. There was a spot that wasn't suitable to be built if there wasn't a sewer, but now there's no impediments to it. That basically sum it up. Yes, sir. That's good. All right. So the chair would entertain a motion for approval of the final plat redivision of lot one of Sperlock acres at this time if someone chooses to make such a motion. That's my district. I'll make a motion to approve. Okay. Motion by Miss Barry to approve the final flat resubdivision of lot of Spurlock acres. Is there a second? There's second for Mr. Batty. There's duly moved and seconded for the proposed flat redision of lot one of Spurlock Acres. Those in favor of this motion signify by saying I. I. Those opposed say no. Mr. Qu did not have discussion on that. We can if we need it. Yes, please. Let's do have a I do have a question. Mr. Christie. Okay. Uh do you have a letter from Mr. Rogers? Anything on the intent? No, I don't. Is is that something talk to him just to check it? Okay. Is that something Mr. meals we need to acquire. So typically water authorities you have to submit an application for availability. Yes. That letter that you give water authority is good for typically a year. Okay. Says yes or no. I don't know if that we don't Mr. Barry but we're we're good with uh I I'll contact Mr. Rogers and get him to send please a letter to the plan his own and off. I think just as as a matter of good business, we we probably need to follow that. I I'm well aware of what's going on out there. I see the lines. I know I know what's happening, but I do think having that letter would be important. I I I think that's an

excellent point, Mr. Barry. And of course, you you know, you know, to get it recorded, it's going to the the final approval and CO and everything about it. That's going to have to be in order first. And I I don't have any doubt that you'll be in receipt of that and it be filed with the office well before then. Yeah. Yeah. It's I'll make sure obviously Mr. Chairman for everybody's knowledge one to sign the PL has to sign it before it can be recorded. Yes. This is actually subdivided and that's one of the signatures. So he's going to have to Yeah, that's going to have to be able to sign. Yeah. All right. Do we need to amend that to say proper signatures? I I I will Okay, we're good. Okay, we good. Okay, if we are, I'm just going to move on to item two. Okay, thank you all. You're welcome. Thank you for your participation. All right, item two on the agenda is the preliminary plat of the alovvium subdivision tax map 138, parcel 7.00 62.18 acres, 660 Piney Road, Dixon, Tennessee, 7th district. Please. Well, this is just a preliminary plat for aluminium subdivision. It was uh going to be something else at one point in time. It shows we're going to do acre and a half tracks on the front end. We're going to do five acre tracks on the back end with the new infrastructure for the roads and water. All right. Does anyone in the commission have any questions about this development or uh any comments about it before we proceed? I do. All right, Jeff, go right ahead. Um, I have a couple of questions which I have a couple of concerns, but I also have a couple of questions which are in the

future, but I would like to know which direction have some sort of point of reference. So, you may not have decided this. Uh my first question would be are these lots going to be sold individually to separate buyers? Do you know? You may not know that. I don't know. Okay. Um my question would be I'd like to know that at some point. Is there a developer involved who's planning on building all of this stuff whether they are sold individually or people come in and purchase a house on a lot? You follow me? Not sure either. Mr. Strong can answer that for you. Okay. [Music] The intent is to sell them individually. Sell the lots individually. The intent is to sell the lots individually. Okay. Will there be, and this is again a question you may not be able to answer at this time, will there be an HOA? There will be an HOA. Okay. Um Okay. Those are a couple of my concerns. Um, I um I voted to approve the prelim prelim whatever it was the last time we had a meeting on this because I wanted to talk with people in my area, my district. Uh, get some feedback. Um, I've gotten a lot of feedback. Um, there are some issues as I see it in a number of areas that are that carry over from when the original intent was to put an RV park there. Um, I had concerns about traffic in the area because those roads are not designed for semis, cement trucks, grapple trucks, etc. Me being an occasional one going in and out, I can understand that. But a lot of my, pardon me, my people in my area are real worried about traffic. Um, some of those turns, there's no way to get a semi around that without taking up all the lanes. So, that's a that's one of my

issues for construction. Obviously, if people want to go there and buy a lot, that's one thing. But when we get to the actual construction point, I have a problem with that. Um also um the character of that area and most of that whole area surrounding it is all agricultural single family with acreage. And my concern again mine and also people in my district have is that a subdivision of this sort is not in the same character as what is already there. It doesn't enhance it. In fact many people said it sort of degrades it. Uh one comment was trying to put a square plug in a round hole. Um so that is an issue also. There are there any specific you may not have this yet any specific building codes suggestions lot requirements zoning requirements for what kind of buildings houses can be built there? How big are you talking about the HOA architectural roof? Yeah. Yes. That would be under those we have not finalized. Okay. But and you may not be a square footage of significant size. Those will be $700,000 to $2 million plus homes. Okay. All right. Um so those are some of my personal concerns. Um my biggest one is the piney. Um that's a heavily regulated waterway. I don't know if it's a waterway, if that's the correct term, but the river itself. That's something only I I can have concern about. I can't do anything about that. The state is are the people who are going to kick in there. Um, I have a real problem with all those septic tanks in a in that flood plane. Um, right next to that flood plane. But again, that's the that's not any tanks in the flood plane. I'm sorry. There's not going to

be any septic tanks in the They are just above the flood plane. I'm sure that that's where they will be put. They're putting state regulations. There's no leeching issues. Okay. Again, that's that's just my concern that those are hoops that you guys will have to hop through with with the state. had a hydraology report done by the core of engineers and T deck and they've both signed off on the property. Okay. Well, that's that's in the good that's in the in a good direction. Um I originally thought, well, I'd like to see what happened. Like I said earlier, I I voted for this to get it through to be able to do a little more investigation on my part, talk to people in my area, and I don't personally believe that this is right for the area for the concerns I've stated and for other ones. Um, but anyway, that's just I admire and I am glad that this is a step in the right direction away from the RV park that there was so much uh uh resistance against but I feel still and as do people in my district that this is not right for the area my opinion. Thank you sir. So I got a question. Does this meet all the requirements from the county? No setbacks or nothing like that as a subdivision. The um plat was evaluated using the preliminary plat checklist. Um there there were um there were no discrepancies or corrective comments in terms of the um the building um envelopes. Um, I did have a couple of of corrective comments um, aside from that, but not from the setbacks or anything from that nature.

Mr. Green, you can always kind of assume that everybody has to meet the subdivision regulations and nothing that this body does unless we're somehow explicitly granting some sort of waiver that we're not ever really probably going to do. that all applicable subdivision regulations will apply and the staff is empowered and encouraged to enforce all those at all times to make sure that everything we're doing meets those regulations. And of course, I'll even go on and add this as a comment. any HOA proposal, the bylaws of that HOA will be attached and we'll we'll get a look at them before this gets final approval. And some of us look at those very closely. I'll just say, Miss Harrington, what are your comments? Um the first was a a citation of the FEMA flood map um indicating or including the area special flood hazard citation because not all parcels are in zone X. That's correct. Um the second was a question if the site was to be served by septic or not. Um the third was there was an incorrect form for the planning commission approval on the preliminary plat. And then the fourth was including the site distance in both directions along any existing roads at any point where a driveway or new road was proposed. Those were my four outstanding corrective comments. Well, three plus the question. Do you gentlemen have any problem correcting those issues? Absolutely not. Sure. Uh Mr. Chase, I understand your concerns with this plat. um this does meet our requirements. Yes. Um but I do feel and and join you in what you think and I've we've sat here time

after time and we've looked at these large parcels of land in our county being gobbled up by subdivisions. I think that's a separate issue that we as a body have to deal with. these gentlemen have done their job. Mr. Barry, I I I tend to concur with that and also very empathetic with the concerns. I also will add as I think I think Jeff's already said this is a lot better than what we looked at as a prior use for this a year or two ago that we were all concerned about evacuating of that many hundreds of people worried ever the need ever to rise and how unlikely that would be and the really heavy traffic that that would have generated and this this doesn't do that and again the heavy traffic Jeff's concerns are correct and that When Mr. Chase says there, he's not exaggerating if any of y'all have not ever been out that way about if you had a gravel truck leaving and a flatbed with a bunch of building materials coming on and there's they meet out in there, it's going to be very problematic. That's just that some really and especially if each one everyone who buys a lot's going to choose a different developer and you got several different people at several stages doing different things. This is going to this is going to require a lot of intensive supervision, but that that that alone is not a reason not to uh agree to this. And I'm going to call for the question to be voted on unless somebody has another comment. Yes, ma'am. Go ahead. Is lot five usable? That's a fair question. Yeah. Yes.

There's better anacre land there that's unencumbered by the flood area. It's a prime basement plot. So there would you say there is over an acre and a half of lot five is above the flood level is indicated. I'd say it's about an acre. Okay. And let's see that that so there's there's a suitable building envelope there that meets the set. I know you understand the question. Okay. And houses and septic areas went on acre lots until two years ago. Exactly correct. Yeah. But we all right. Uh is there any more comments from commissioners? I do appreciate the the larger lots. I also appreciate the uh the HOA. Okay. I think in this case it's period and the the regulations that could be set forth there. All right. Uh let's vote on the uh motion to approve the preliminary plat of the Louvium subdivision tax made 108 parcel 7.0062.18 0062.18 acres at 660 Piney Road, Dixon, Tennessee, 7th District, as with with the stipulations that have been added by the commissioners and by staff as the objections being addressed. Those who are in favor of approving this preliminary plat roll call. Excuse me. Yeah, let's do let's do it. Let's do a roll call then. motion in a second. What's that? We have Okay, we got We need a motion and a second. Mr. Chase, are you will you move to for a roll call vote? Yes, I will.

Okay, someone will second that. I hope I'll second. And Mr. Barry will second that. So, it's been moved by Mr. Chase, seconded by Mr. Barry that this matter be voted on by roll call vote. So, Mr. Hayes, if you would call the role. Mr. Chairman, I'm sorry. I think we need a formal motion and second to approved with staff comments to be addressed. Okay. All right. So, what the roll call vote will be on is staff approval, right? Or do we have to first say approve the roll call vote motion? Well, that's what's pending. So, okay. It's up to Mr. Chair just want to call yourself. I that's what I was sort of attempting to do, but if we need a motion, I'll take Let's go on and you all vote to roll call this if you want to. It gets a favorable recommendation from the chair. Those in favor, roll call vote on this issue signify by saying I. Those opposed by saying no. Opinion of chair is the eyes have it. This will be voted on by a roll call vote. The question is whether or not to appro approve preliminary plat of alovvium subdivision tax map 138 parcel 7.0 62.18 acres 660 county road Dixon Tennessee 7th district with the additional stipulations put in by the commission and with the issues addressed brought up by staff being addressed. That's the motion. Does everyone understand the motion? All right, Mr. Hayes, if you would call the role. Todd Barry, I'm sorry. We did not have a motion in a second on that. Okay, good. All right. We We need Mr. Chase. Are you That's right. Do you of the will to do this? Who Who is going to move this?

I motion to approve with Mr. Reagan moves approval. Who is the second? Mr. Rainey is a second. It's been moved and seconded that the uh preliminary plat of alovium subdivision be voted on at this time. Mr. Hayes, please if you would call the role do this. Barry, yes. Tina Ferris, approve. Darren Green, yes. Robert Walls, yes. Tommy Brown, no. Jeff Chase, no. Randy Ramy, yes. Amanda Barry, yes. Patrick Reagan, yes. Mr. Commission, uh, the chair notes that there were approval votes were, counting my own, uh, uh, seven and the, uh, nay votes were two. So correct, the motion is agreed to and the preliminary plat of alivium subdivision with the stipulations made and staff comments is approved. And item number three on the agenda is a stite plan for level storage. This is tax map number 40, parcel 44.07 of 5 acres 49 highway 49 east in Charlotte, Tennessee. So, who is going to talk in favor of the the site plan for Level Story? I'll talk. My name is Trent Smith. I'm the engineer for this project. Thank you, sir. And we're hoping to do approximately 9,500 square ft of I guess I'll call it self storage units. Like, that's the proper term. Okay.

Mr. Smith, this seal plan. This is the second phase of this. Is that correct? You've already come forth with the first phase of this. No, we've been here for a three three We went to three meetings. Yeah, but this is a first on site plan. First on site. Yeah, we did a You had a preliminary? Is that correct? Oh, we did. There was a preliminary plat. We did some Okay. property changing. Yes. Maybe in May possibly is when we saw this preliminary plat. Is that correct? It was before then. I think it was before May. And I'm I don't have good memory, but it was it was a few months ago. Okay. And and things have evolved since that point. So basically, what are the the what are the major are the things that are colored on this uh big handout we all got? Are are they the the things that have changed since the last time you appeared here before this body? The the first appearance was a reasonzoning of the property. Okay. Yeah, we that was a while back now. Yes. It was reszone from A1 to C one. Yes. What is it called? I'm not sure what it's okay. So, well, this is in the uh fourth district. So, uh let's see. He's out. He's out. Yeah. So, he fell off somebody. And well, yeah, Todd Todd suffered that big fall, unfortunately. Is there anybody from an adjoining district that feels real comfortable discussing this? I'm I'm not an adjoining district, but I do your If you if you think you're knows on this one, I didn't say I was knowledgeable. They know about it. I I

do know where this is at and there are uh there are businesses around this already and that's what I was thinking. I remember the the zoning request and it was a favorable uh and you were Thank you very much for doing things the correct way. I do remember you sir. Yes, I remember you coming in. I was impressed that you were approaching this correctly. Um, what have you changed or what changes have taken place since you were uh since this as this has evolved, Mr. Smith? What what can you tell us? We have not actually done any anything. Okay. Besides the uh site plan itself, we put some uh buildings uh at different phases. uh has a upper side and the lower side. And we was going to start at the lower side and just do a few, get our fence up. Okay. We got a lot of uh cameras, water, electric, um maybe even some gas. Okay. But uh we've we have located the uh where all those things lines are because we took a permit out to put a drive in um earlier. Okay. You you've already gotten T DOT's driveway connection approved. Redo it for commercial. The way Yeah. We have to have an approval from you. We'll get a letter from staff saying it's been approved. They they need that before they can give Yeah. Yeah. They're not going to do anything without that. Well, what is the feeling of the commission? Uh do we want to go ahead and grant approval to this? Miss Harrington, I think has some comments. Please go ahead. I do. Thank you. Um, Mr. Smith, on uh the dimensions of the buildings on site plan sheet C1 and C2 don't match. Can you confirm what the proper um dimension of the building should be? And

specifically, it's building five, I think. Let's see. Building five is 12 by 96 ft. 12 by 108. It's It's building It's building seven on sheet C 2.0 and it's building it's labeled as building one on sheet C 1.0. I know what she's talking about. I'm not I can show you if you'd like. Should we come over there? That would be good. So here it's labelled as be a good time to have our slides. Yeah. 2.0 building 7 12 by 108 it I'll tell you what happened remember you said yeah they had so this is kind of Rome wasn't built so this is not correct this one isn't okay so this is the correct okay so for the record um you all so for the record for the planning commission on on sheet C2.0 zero you all would be approving um building seven building 7 at 12 by 108. Okay. So, disregarding sheet C. Okay. 1.0. Did Did everybody that has a concern or objection hear what was being discussed there? If not, we'll try to give you a summation of what the what the story is. M to make sure I understand correctly. Uh on building or sorry on sheet C2 uh the building that is shown as 12 by 101 this building 7 that that's the sheet that they're actually proposing as

the site plan. That'll be the building size. That's correct. One is off a little bit. Okay. That's correct. GC 1.0 should be disregarded. Thank you. That that sounds good to me. All right. Is everyone got that? That the actual dimensions are those shown on sheet T. All right. So, is there anyone who would make a motion? And again with the the person whose district this is not being able to join us this evening, will anyone move for approval of the site plan for level storage? I'd move we approve the site plan for level storage. Um obviously with the staff comments noted and the corrections proper corrections made. I'll second that. Mr. Chair, Mr. Mr. Reagan seconds Mr. Barry's motion to approve the site plan for level storage uh tax map 40 parcel 44.0749 east in Charlotte. So I think I think think a voice vote would be fine on this. Those in favor of the motion please signify by stating I I. Those opposed to the motions please say no. In the opinion of the chair, the eyes have it. And the site plan for level storage, tax map 40, parcel 44.07 of 5 acres in the fourth district is hereby approved. The next item on the agenda, thank you. Thank you. is resoning request for Bonnie George tax map 139 parcel 30.07 9.20 20 acres 48 South Dixon A1 to agriculture to C2 general commercial second district.

This is a reszoning. This is and we're going to have a roll call vote if you all want to recommend that. And of course, as I always state for the advantage of new members, we aren't reszoning anything. We're either recommending to the county commission that they reszone it or that they not reszone it. But having said that, I'm I'm ready for discussion on this if somebody wants to discuss it. No, this this is a reason request just off Interstate 40 on Highway 48 South next to the Dollar General. They would like to open an RV and camping facility. Included in your packet is a proposed site plan and traffic impact analysis. All adjoining neighbors have been notified by certifi certified mail. Okay. This is my district and I drive by this area almost daily. I do wish you would have gotten a phone call back from Mr. George, Bony George. I do wish you would have gotten that. Um, normally I'm always hesitant on signing a blank check for reasonzoning from agriculture to commercial because we don't know when that if they leave what would go in there. However, in this place, it's in between two commercial businesses already. There's um it's right next to the Dollar General. And so I am going to motion that we approve this to the commission to approve the reasonzoning. Okay, we have a motion from Tina Ferris who represents this parcel to uh approve the reasonzoning request. Is there a second? All right. Well, that's we we've got several seconds. Uh Mr. secretary if you whoever you p may I may I make a comment

please make a com we we're going to have discussion so Miss Perry go please right ahead um I noticed uh are you the engineer that prepared the drawing yes okay I just want to make a note that under the general notes here it states that it's within the jurisdiction of Davidson County it's not number one we will make sure that you have the right uh numbers and contacts and you'll have my information as well as the engineer of record. Um so I apologize if if you were somehow not contacted that that's not something that we're going to do uh moving forward. Uh and it wasn't on purpose. Now please accept my apology on that. Um there could be a couple of things. Again this is a really a concept plan but we wanted to show as much information as possible. So there could be a couple of things that are metro etc. All that will be absolutely fixed once we get to the site plan component and you'll see a full site plan that will include all the dimensions and everything that specifically is related invert elevations of the storm and how all that works. We'll have the information shown for the septic etc. All of that will be shown again at the site plan uh stage. Do you know if these are if it's intended for short-term rentals or long-term rentals? It it will be really intended more for short-term than long-term. There could be a couple of folks that might be contractors or something like that that might need a month-long type rental, but it's not something that we're going to go out and and actively pursue. Nor are we going to permit somebody to say, "Oh, we just want to live in a trailer out here. Um

this concept plan is based upon a true resort uh layout standard. In other words, all the pullth through spaces are designed so that you have the ability to park anything that is made with a tow vehicle. They're 100 foot. The the the drive-thru spaces are 100 foot long. Again, those are site plan type issues, but I want to bring that up. The the backend spaces are 50 foot on their own with a dedicated uh parking space next to them. So, we we are not jamming everything in. Those are again site plan related more than they are reszoning. But I want to make those points that you're talking about specifically those site plan issues. Nobody's going to be underskirting trailers at this. No, they're not. Okay. I I think that that alleviates a lot of people's concerns. Well, I Yes. What are these septic plans here? And I assume that each individual um site will have its own hookup. Uh each individual site will actually have two hookups. Okay. Uh because a lot of your larger buses, etc. will have a front and and a rear. Um and again what you're seeing is the concept because you have to begin the process of looking at one of the important things is is septic and that's one of the things that we did. We also uh pulled the uh soil maps for the area and I've already had preliminary discussions with a geo uh science individual that will be the soil scientist on this particular project. Uh again, it is based upon the actual site plans. That's the reason why uh we don't

come to you with a reasonzoning request with all that in hand because the site plan might change a little bit between now and then. Uh but preliminarily he has looked at the soil maps as have I and uh it appears to be conducive. We will know definitively yes we can do that prior to site plan approval. Just a point of note, there are there is no sewer service from the water authority of Dixon County at this site. That is correct. Yes. I I I too, Miss Ferris, agree with you. I do not like signing blank checks here. And anytime that we reszone, there is always opportunity for this not to see through as it is. and then we have reszoneed something that could be a number of different things. So just keep that in mind ladies and gentlemen. I I will just add not that anybody asked me that I'm very familiar with this area. I mean my mother's friends were all down there cuz she taught school down there at Hillrest back in the 1940s and I've spent a lot of time in that area. Uh the fact that this is still zoned agriculture is sort of a relic of what 40 years ago when zoning came to the county. If you were starting from scratch today, which obviously is not something we're doing, this would be zoned commercial. And it's this is a place that's logical to be commercial. This is not somebody trying to pull spot zoning out a mile and a half from any other commercial business. Because if anyone's familiar with my record on this body, nobody objects to that any more stringently or any loudly than I do. But this is this is a logical development

for this part of the world. I would say for sure. But is there any more discussion from the commission? You go right ahead. Question, Mr. Brown. Mile. Maybe less than a mile. less than a mile. Yeah, I think that's an excellent point, M. Brown. I think we all need to be aware of that. I was, but I I I like the body as a whole to be aware of that. So, just take that into consideration. Only other comment. Can you make sure that Bony George gets a hold of my guy over here who was trying to get a hold of him? As indicated, we'll make sure that that happens. Absolutely. All right. Mr. Chairman, I spoke clarify just a couple quick things. Please, please, we're not in that big of a hurry. Please. Traffic assessment report is looks like the expected daily trips are 449. The number in there. Okay. So, I want to make sure the applicants aware that when he comes in the site plan, he will be a full traffic impact study because it's more than 150 trips. Thank you, counselor. And just in terms of process, uh believe Miss Harrington, uh this proposed used as a special special exception under C2. So before they come to this body plan, they'll have to go to the board of zoning appeals for approval of that special exception first. Right. Yes. We'll make sure everyone's clear on that. That's going to have to go be said before you see anything else on this if it's the will of county commission to resume. Thank you counselor for those important points that are very salient to this discussion. Does anybody have anything else that needs to be taken in consideration before we vote on the resoning request? It was one one thing, Mr. Mills, could you can you recite to us the businesses that can be put in C2?

So, these are, you know, anytime you're resigning something, I know we talked about this last month. It's it's worth hearing again. You're approving those permitted uses. Um, you're also permitting an applicant to seek those special exceptions because that's a separate category, the zoning designation. Um, they're pretty robust. I don't think you want me to read them all, but there are 30 different types of uses under C2. Great. You know, C2 is the general commercial district resolution that's established to provide area in which the principal use of land is devoted to general and highway commercial activities along the principal thorough affairs in Dixon County. So you've got wholesale trade from motor vehicles to grocery stores to farm products, hardware, plumbing, etc. That's one whole section. retail trade, anything you would think of in there from food to materials to general merchandise, uh, hotels, churches, professional offices going on down. It's a pretty broad commercial zoning district designed to be as stated on the major thorough affairs, which given the location that doesn't seem to be in opposite to where this zoning should probably be. But again, it's up to this lobby to make the recommendation, not to the county commission to hold money. Does does that you feel the council's addressed your concern, Mr. Re? You're set back. Yes, sir. Okay. All right. Does are there any other questions or comments before we proceed to the vote? Okay. Who made the motion to approve this? Now, Mr. Ferris. Mr. Ferris. Miss Miss Ferris. Miss Ferris. Miss Ferris made the motion for approval and the second

was from Mr. Chase. Mr. Chase. Okay. All right. So, the question before us is the reasonzoning request for Bonnie George on item that's tax map 139 parcel 30.07 9.20 acres located on Highway 48 South Dixon, Tennessee. This has got to be by our rules a roll call vote. Mr. Hayes, would you call the role? Todd Barry, yes. Tina Ferris, yes. Darren Green, yes. Robert Qu. Yes. Tommy Brown, yes. Jeff Chase, yes. Randy Ramy, yes. Amanda Barry, yes. Patrick Reagan, yes. Unanimous. Okay. The uh the uh Dixon County Planning Commission has unanimously recommended that the county commission look favorably on the reszoning of tax map 139, parcel 30.079.2 acres, Highway 48 South. Thank you. Is there any other business that needfully should come before the commission at this time? If not, I will entertain a motion to adjourn with the understanding the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Dixon County Planning Commission will be at this location at 700 p.m. Central Daylight Time on July 10th, 2025. Motion to adjurnn. Motion by Mr. Reagan, second by Mr. Barry. Those in favor, you're ajourned.
