STREET/ROAD NAME CHANGE - Planning Commission Meeting
ProposalAI Summary
The Knox County Planning Commission considered a proposal to rename a section of Andes Road to Hitching Post Drive in County Commission District 6, requested by Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works due to the realignment of Schaad Road. The change is necessary to comply with the County Street Naming Ordinance, as the realignment would create non-contiguous sections of Ball Camp Pike, and the new name logically extends the existing Hitching Post Drive to the west; the proposal requires three new addresses to be assigned and has received no public objections. Staff recommended approval as the name change meets all requirements of Knox County Code Chapter 54, Article II, Section 54-40, with the item scheduled for forwarding to Knox County Commission on November 12, 2024.

More proposals from Knoxville
Douglas T Lubienski of Knoxville submitted a proposal response opposing a planned Walmart Neighborhood Market at Schaad Road and Bakertown Road, citing insufficient time for affected homeowners associations to review the project and raising concerns about redundant services given existing shopping and fuel options, ongoing Weigel's development, and potential traffic and safety issues. He identified specific concerns including dangerous driveway proximity to Truitt Path Lane, lack of clarity on protective landscaping installation, unrealistic traffic impact assessments, and misalignment with the county's "Advance Knox" growth plan, while suggesting relocation further west on Schaad Road as an alternative that would better prioritize local resident interests over commercial development.
