Description
Chattanooga City Council Meeting — 02-08-22
A
A
A
Thank
you
councilman.
We
have
no
special
presentations
this
afternoon
could
have
a
motion
on
the
minutes.
Please
we
have
a
motion
on
the
minutes
with
a
proper
second.
Are
there
any
questions
or
comments
before
we
vote
all
in
favor
aye
any
pose?
No,
the
eyes
have
it.
We
have
no
ordinances
on
final
reading
this
afternoon
we
do
have
several
planning
items
under
first
reading
and
for
the
first
item,
I'm
going
to
turn
the
chair
over
to
our
vice
chair,
so
I
can
address
this
matter.
Thank
you.
C
D
C
E
E
We
would
like
to
request
our
case
be
withdrawn,
so
that
we
can
continue
to
work
with
the
neighbors
and
figure
out
what
the
best
use
and
the
best
plan
can
be
for
this
community.
I've
spoken
to
a
few
of
the
neighbors
and
our
client
has
also
has
under
contract
the
additional
26
acres
to
the
north
of
the
site,
with
the
intent
and
hope
of
possibly
turning
that
into
a
community
park.
E
As
part
of
the
you
know,
improvements
to
the
mountain
creek
community,
but
those
conversations
are
going
to
take
some
time
as
well
as
the
area
planned
study.
So
we'd
like
to
have
this
withdrawn
without
prejudice,
so
that
we
can
continue
to
work
with
rpa
and
the
residents
of
mountain
creek
and
hopefully
come
back
with
a
better
plan.
Once
we've
kind
of
worked
through
those
issues.
F
Yeah,
I'm
just
going
to
add
a
point
of
clarity:
I'm
kirby
yost
with
chambliss
bonner
and
I
represent
the
applicant
and
and
after
speaking
with
chip
and
the
fact
that
there's
not
a
current
area
plan,
we
want
to
wait
and
see
that
come
out
so
that
we
can
see
where
we
fit
with
that
new
plan.
I
just
want
to
make
clear
that
that
was
the
point.
A
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
and,
and
I
do
plan
to
make
a
motion
this
afternoon
to
to
withdraw
the
application
as
the
applicant
has
requested.
But
we
do
have
a
a
great
turnout
here
this
afternoon
from
the
mountain
creek
area,
and
I
know
many
have
prepared
to
address
the
council
and
I
would
like
to
request
that
they
be
allowed
to
give
be
given
their
nine
minutes
so
that
we
can
hear
some
of
their
concerns
so
that
we
know
how
to
go
forward
even
better.
With
the
with
the
plan.
C
G
G
G
I
do
have
a
few
numbers
that
I
would
like
to
give
to
you.
I
have
a
packet
of
information
that
will
give
you
much
deeper
information
which
I
will
leave
right
here
for
you
all
for
distribution.
At
a
later
time,
on
mountain
creek
road,
we
have
2
2973
dwellings,
there
are
21.6
zoned,
r1
16.4,
which
are
medium
density
density
and
62
high
density
apartments.
G
G
The
community
does
and
will
continue
to
support
an
r1
zoning
low-density
single-family
designation
for
this
property.
However,
we
have
no
objections
to
the
withdrawal
of
this
application,
with
the
understanding
that
the
land
use
plan
will
be
completed
and
we
will
have
input
addressing
the
plan
for
the
entire
corridor,
not
just
one
piece
of
property.
At
this
point,
I
would
like
to
introduce
a
neighbor
who
lives
in
a
single
family
home
on
mountain
creek
road.
Angela.
Would
you
come
up?
Please.
H
H
As
the
developers
representation
pointed
out
at
the
planning
commission
meeting
last
month,
we're
talking
about
one
of
the
last
developable
pieces
of
land
on
mountain
creek
road.
We
as
a
community
want
to
ensure
any
development
will
be
done
responsibly.
Taking
into
account
all
aspects
of
this
complex
puzzle.
H
There
is
aging
water
and
sewer
infrastructure
that
is
already
breaking
down
and
causing
problems
to
current
property
owners,
who
would
be
held
accountable
for
damages
caused
to
the
property
owners
from
further
burdening
of
this
infrastructure.
Who
will
shoulder
the
cost
of
paying
for
the
additional
upgrades
and
services
that
would
be
required?
What
about
waste
disposal?
I
remember
when
we
didn't
have
recycling
for
months?
How
would
this
increase
load
to
the
system
be
addressed?
Mountain
creek
road
already
has
traffic
problems.
Each
new
development
is
only
compounding
an
existing
issue.
H
My
neighbors
and
I
face
daily
hardships
just
getting
out
of
our
driveways
conducting
daily
business
such
as
checking
the
mail
can
be
scary
and
dangerous.
At
times.
Over
the
past
12
years
I
have
lived
here,
I've
watched
the
problem
grow
worse.
I
have
lost
a
beloved
family
pet
right
before
my
eyes.
I
have
feared
letting
my
son
play
in
our
yard
due
to
the
danger
of
the
traffic
on
this
road.
I
learned
first
hand.
It
only
takes
a
split
second.
H
I've
witnessed
and
been
inconvenienced
by
multiple
car
accidents
in
front
of
my
home,
which
is
adjacent
to
the
property
in
question.
Our
ability
to
have
quiet
enjoyment
is
being
taken
from
us.
The
charm
and
character
of
mountain
creek
road
is
being
destroyed
instead
of
birds.
Chirping,
I
hear
hydraulic
breaks
tires
screeching
and
honking
horns.
Instead
of
enjoying
the
beauty
of
watching
new
deer
foraging
in
the
spring,
I
fear
for
their
lives.
This
is
not
the
safe
quiet
place.
I
originally
moved
my
family
to,
I
feel
as
if
I'm
being
chased
from
my
home.
H
My
final
concerns
are
an
environmental
nature.
This
property
is
part
of
a
wildlife
corridor
with
old
growth
forest.
It
is
an
extremely
ecologically
diverse
area
amongst
the
flora
and
fauna
are
deer,
mountain
lions,
woodpeckers
and
owls
just
to
name
a
few.
What
will
happen
to
the
displaced
wildlife?
Where
will
they
go?
I
am
also
concerned
about
the
impact
of
another
12
acres
of
pavement
with
will
have
on
stormwater
runoff
into
the
mountain
creek,
as
well
as
of
flooding,
which
is
already
a
problem
in
multiple
areas.
How
will
stormwater
management
and
bioretention
areas
be
addressed?
H
Has
a
local
environmental
plan
been
ordered?
For
these
reasons,
and
others?
You
will
hear
more
about
we
humbly
implore
you
to
vote
no
on
this
or
any
other
attempt
to
add
high
density
development
to
mountain
creek
road.
Please
insist
on
the
responsible
development
of
this
area.
A
land
use
plan,
as
well
as
an
environmental
plan,
is
gravely
needed.
Ask
the
hard
questions.
How
will
this
addition
be
beneficial
to
the
area
as
a
whole
and
at
what
cost
or
impact
from
our
community
standpoint?
Mountain
creek
road
does
not
need
another
apartment.
Complex.
I
My
name
is:
will
ferrell
and
I
live
in
horse
creek
farms
off
of
mountain
creek
road.
My
contribution
to
this
evening's
conversation
is
to
implore
you
to
take
very
careful
study
of
the
traffic,
the
flows,
the
speeds,
the
activity
between
signal,
mountain
boulevard
and
certainly
morrison
springs.
The
numbers
keep
increasing
every
year
pulled
up.
I
I
have
seen
ambulance
have
difficult
times
trying
to
cut
through
because
of
the
the
narrow
distancing
between
this
minor
roundabout
at
the
end
of
runyon
on
mountain
creek
and
the
main
roundabout
at
the
bottom
of
the
w
road.
So
many
people
are
moving
north
to
south
to
get
over
to
signal
mountain
boulevard
out
to
the
highway
to
walmart
all
the
services
there
and
it's
just
flooding
the
traffic.
The
people
there
are
constantly
talking
about
the
number
of
accidents.
I
How
many
times
they've
been
bumped
into
how
many
times
there's
just
been
an
issue
in
just
getting
home.
We
don't
have
the
standard
morning,
traffic
and
evening
traffic.
We
have
morning
traffic,
that's
intensified
by
the
elementary
school.
Then
we
have
the
traffic
at
three
o'clock
with
the
elementary
school
and
then
we
have
your
evening
traffic.
So
the
numbers
just
keep
increasing
and
increasing
almost
exponentially
to
the
point
where
it's
almost
irresponsible
to
put
too
many
more
cars
on
this
road.
When
you
look
at
the
differences
between
mountain
creek,
road
and
dayton
boulevard,
it's
phenomenal.
I
The
area
between
morrison
springs
and
signal
mountain
boulevard,
main
main
middle
distance
between
them,
is
14,
000,
plus
or
minus
cars
on
dayton
boulevard.
It's
a
four
lane
with
a
turn
lane.
We
are
a
two-lane,
no
room
to
expand,
no
right-of-way
to
do
anything
and
we're
already
at
11.
000
cars
just
seems
like
it's
not
a
solid
way
to
grow
this
corridor
by
changing
zoning.
So
we
implore
you
to
turn
this
down
at
whatever
point.
It
is
keep
it
as
an
r1
and
keep
the
integrity
of
our
community
together.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
J
J
You've
also
heard
angela
talk
about
the
impact
on
the
infrastructure
to
include
waste
water,
and
so
we
at
horse
creek
farms
agree
with
all
that
and
believe
that
a
plan
would
be
beneficial,
but
we
still
believe
that
there
should
be
single-family
low-density
in
that
particular
area.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you,
mr
steele.
A
A
I
do
mean
that
in
a
good
way,
but
the
reason
we're
here
for
the
second
time
in
nearly
as
many
years
is
because
we
don't
have
an
area
plan
for
the
mountain
creek
area
and
as
soon
as
we
got
a
new
executive
director
for
the
rpa
dan,
are
you
back
there
somewhere?
Where
I
can't
see
you
or
did
he
leave
the
room
he's
in
the
conference
he's
in
the
conference
room?
Okay,
all
right!
A
A
A
Just
a
little
bit
like
I
did
last
week,
but
dan
I
just
want
the
people
to
hear
from
you.
Dan
has
agreed
to
work
with
the
community
to
do
an
area
plan
for
the
mountain
creek
corridor,
and
I
want
everybody,
that's
in
attendance
tonight,
to
work
with
dan
to
help
him
come
up
with
a
plan
that
best
suits
the
needs
and
the
desires
of
the
mountain
creek
area
to
make
it
a
great
place
to
live
dan.
You
have
anything
to
say.
K
A
A
I'll
make
one
follow
up.
I
appreciate
councilman
ledford's
leadership
on
the
planning
commission
on
this
as
well.
He
brought
up
the
fact
that
that
we,
you
know
he
he
agreed
that
we
do
need
an
area
plan,
so
it's
great
to
be
able
to
partner
with
fellow
council
members
that
serve
on
the
planning
commission
that
can
represent
all
of
our
interests
as
well.
I
thank
you
councilman
ludford,
for
that.

A
A
D

Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
While
we're
waiting
for
mr
jones,
we
had
an
original
request
on
this
case
for
an
r3,
the
neighborhood
came
together.
We
worked
very
diligently
and
also
I'm
very
happy
to
see
what
mr
jones
came
out
of
the
meeting
with
listening
to
the
community,
and
this
was
moved
to
an
rtz,
but
also
at
that
meeting
were
some
conditions
that
I
would
like
to
give
mr
jones
an
opportunity.
M
M
B
B
Rtz
rezone,
with
three
conditions
number
one:
the
development
shall
follow
the
general
direction
of
the
submitted
rtz
site
plan
to
a
d
acceleration
lane
should
be
required,
as
shown
on
site
plan.
Three,
no
vinyl
siding
should
be
allowed
applicant,
provided
a
revised
site
plan
to
attach
to
the
ordinance.
M
Very
good
and
we
have
that
karen
on
record
the
revised
site
plan.
So,
mr
chairman,
this
is
a
really
good
example
of
when
the
engineers
and
applicants
work
well
with
the
community.
I
want
to
thank
mr
jones
for
coming
to
our
meeting
working
with
the
community.
That's
what
that's,
how
this
process
should
work.
So
thank
you
very
much.
I.
A

D
B
Six
g
plays
an
ordinance
to
remain
in
chattanooga
city
called
part
2
chapter
38
zoning
ordinance.
So
it's
to
lift
all
condition
numbers
one
through
four
from
ordinance
number
one:
zero,
six
one
zero
previous
case
number
1996
278
from
the
properties
located
at
1188,
1200,
1204,
1206,
1208,
1209,
12,
10,
12,
18,
12,
32,
12,
90
and
1300
premier
drive.
A
A
B
A
M
A
M
Yes,
sir,
this
also
we
followed
through
planning,
commission
and
the
planning
and
zoning
committee
in
the
city
account
for
the
city
council.
Karen,
can
you
verify
karen
rennett
has
been
helping
me
converse
with
the
applicant.
I
believe
we
have
a
request
for
a
ugc
which
is
a
lesser
or
a
down
zone
request,
but
in
order
to
allow
time
for
rpa
to
address
any
issues-
and
I
think,
there's
also
a
self-imposed
height
restriction,
which
is
something
that
brought
my
to
my
attention.
M
D
That
is
correct.
The
original
request
was
to
c2
convenience
commercial
zone.
The
applicant
is
asking
instead
of
the
c2
zone
after
going
through
the
process,
the
ugc
urban
general
commercial
zone,
which
is
a
good
fit
for
the
planned
recommendation.
So
we
can
take
that
two
weeks
to
you
know,
understand
the
applicant's
request
and
if
there's
any
other
comments,
we
need
to
pass
along
we'll
have
time
to
do
that
and
we
do
have
just
because
it
is
a
change
from
the
original
application.
A
D
No,
we
haven't,
the
normal
sign
will
be
up
there.
That
says
it's
being
rezoned
to
c2,
but
just
because
the
applicant
is
requesting
a
change
to
ugc
just
to
notify
the
public,
there
will
be
just
a
sticker.
That
goes
over
that,
just
to
note
that
there
is
a
change,
a
different
zoning
change
with
the
revised
council
date
on
it
just
for
some
transparency
to
help
the
public.
If
there's
a
question
councilman.
A

is
the
second
and
final
renewal
of
contracts

piping
supply
company
and
consolidated
pipe
and
supply
for
standard
valves.
Piping
supply
companies

a
29.6
price
increase

pipe
and
supply

At

The
sixth
and
final

this

is
from
the
smart
cities
division
of
it.
This
is
a
new,
four-year

and
replacement
of
parts
for
traffic
management
system
equipment
currently
installed
throughout
the
city.
This
is
a
sole
source
procurement,
with
an
annual
amount
not
to
exceed
250
thousand
dollars.
A
A
N
A
That
does
require
a
vote.
So
what
is
the
pleasure
of
the
council
all
right?
We
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
to
approve
this
settlement
with
a
proper
second.
Are
there
any
questions
or
comments
before
we
vote
roll
call,
please
roll
call.
Well,
I
guess
it's
does
it
matter.
I
guess
it's
not
necessarily
a
budgetary
item,
all
in
favor
aye,
any
opposed.
No,
that
does
it
motion
carries.
A
All
right
that
takes
care
of
all
items
on
our
agenda
this
afternoon,
and
it
brings
us
to
the
time
that
we
recognize
persons
wishing
to
address
the
council.
Are
there
any
persons
in
the
audience
with
us
tonight
that
would
like
to
address
the
council
this
evening?
Okay,
we're
going
to
ask
you
to
make
your
way
to
the
podium.
While
the
attorney
reads
the
rules
to
engage
the
council.
N
P

But
the
success
of
cap,
which
I'm
calling
short
for
chattanooga
aquatic
project,
is
going
to
require
a
total
collaboration
between
city
and
county
governments,
hamilton
county
school
board,
teachers,
parents
and
students.
My
journey
back
home.
Let
me
just
say
I
was
born
and
raised
here
in
chattanooga
tennessee
and
I
left
in
89
and
returned
in
2018..
P
We
also
see
marine
life
is
dying.
The
coastal
waters
of
florida
have
dying
coral
reefs,
bringing
young
people
together
in
chattanooga
tennessee
for
the
purpose
of
teaching
them
how
to
swim
and
scuba
dive
is
the
objective
for
the
aquatic
side.
The
personal
development
side
is
to
bring
these
young
people
together
in
collaboration
with
subject
matter.
