More anti-cell tower signs have arrived. This batch is being paid for by LHHA, so if you feel moved to help with the cost, make checks to LHHA.

1. Neighborhood Yard Sale in Cumberland Estates

Cumberland Estates West Neighborhood Watch will hold a neighborhood yard sale this Saturday, June 27, starting at 8:30 a.m.

The Cumberland Estates neighborhood is located between Western Avenue and Sullivan Road, on either side of Palmetto Road. This particular multi-yard sale is concentrated west of Palmetto.

2. North Hills Garden Tour Set for Saturday

The North Hills Garden Club is hosting a Garden Tour on Saturday, June 27, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event is open to the public and will take place rain or shine.

The tour will feature seven residential gardens located along the neighborhood’s historic boulevards. While on the tour, participants can speak directly to homeowners about the various plants, flowers and techniques used in their gardens.

Tickets are $10 per person or $15 for a family. Participants can purchase tickets and begin the tour at two locations: 1927 North Hills Blvd. or 3033 Fountain Park Blvd. All proceeds are used for the beautification of the neighborhood’s boulevards and park.

See https://www.facebook.com/events/843400875740352/ for pictures and more information.

3. “Coffee with the Councilman” Is This Saturday

Vice Mayor and First District Councilman Nick Pavlis will hold his quarterly “Coffee with the Councilman” this Saturday, June 27.

As usual, he will be at the Roundup Restaurant, 3643 Sevierville Pike, starting at 9 a.m. and will stay until the last person is heard. The event is open to all city residents. “I hope to see you there for a great breakfast, fellowship, and discussion of any city matter,” he said in a recent email to constituents.

4. AmeriCorps Service Ending for Griff Ashooh, Travis Nissen

AmeriCorps members Griff Ashooh and Travis Nissen this week are closing out 45 weeks of service to the Knoxville community in general and to Knoxville’s neighborhoods in particular.

The two recent college graduates — Griff from William and Mary and Travis from the University of Wisconsin — spent the last 10 months immersed in the programs and projects of the Office of Neighborhoods and the Community Development Department.

They helped produce this weekly newsletter, answered phones, provided logistical support to our leadership training program, made huge contributions to the success of The Neighborhood Conference back in March, and assisted with a myriad of other tasks and projects.

In addition, Griff further developed the Neighborhood Emergency Preparedness Program, and Travis worked with neighborhood groups in the Neighborhood Working Group on Blighted Properties. We are grateful for their service, hard work, good humor and commitment to a better world.

Both Griff and Travis are headed for graduate school. Griff will be at American University in Washington, D.C., studying international development, and Travis will be at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., studying architecture.

If you worked with Griff or Travis this past year, you still have time to convey your best wishes. Contact Travis at 215-3077 or [email protected]. Contact Griff at 215—3456 or [email protected]. Their last day is Wednesday, June 24.

The City of Knoxville’s participation in the AmeriCorps program is made possible by CAC AmeriCorps, a program of CAC (the Knoxville-Knox County Community Action Agency).

5. Pursue a Relentless Search for Strengths

Debbie Sharp, the assistant neighborhoods coordinator in the Office of Neighborhoods, recently attended the annual Neighborhoods, USA conference in Houston, Texas, and she is sharing what she learned on the Office of Neighborhoods blog.

Visit http://www.knoxvilletn.gov/neighborhoods to see her observations on the advantage of using “appreciative inquiry” — searching for strengths — to accomplish your mission and goals. Just click on “Office of Neighborhoods Blog.”

6. It’s Official: Everly Brothers Park

The City of Knoxville’s Public Property Naming Committee last week voted unanimously to call a new pocket park in west Knoxville “Everly Brothers Park” in honor of the singing duo Don and Phil Everly.

Located at the corner of Kingston Pike and Forest Park Blvd., the park is a project of the Bearden Council, which is raising funds to add amenities to the space and to connect it to the Third Creek Greenway. In April, City Council authorized leasing the property from the Tennessee Dept. of Transportation (Advisory, April 14, 2015).

Look for a proposed park design and fund-raising efforts later this summer.

7. City to Hold Public Meeting on Old South High

The City of Knoxville has scheduled a public meeting to take ideas and comments from the public regarding the redevelopment and repurposing of the historic Old South High building located at 953 E. Moody Avenue.

The meeting will be held at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, July 23, at Dogwood Elementary School, 705 Tipton Avenue.

The city acquired the long-blighted structure back in the spring (Advisory, May 5, 2015). Following the public meeting, the Community Development Department will request proposals from developers capable of bringing the building back into productive use in a way that enhances the surrounding neighborhoods.

8. Candidates Set for 2015 City Elections

Six offices are on the election ballot for the City of Knoxville this fall, with two incumbents facing no opposition and four incumbents facing at least one opponent.

Mayor Madeline Rogero, seeking her second four-year term, will face a single opponent — Buck Cochran, who lost to Marshall Stair for At-Large Seat B four years ago.

Four of the nine seats on Knoxville City Council are on the ballot this year, and all four incumbents are running for their second term.

George Wallace faces no opposition for At-Large Seat A. Marshall Stair will compete with Carly Baskette and Pete Drew for At-Large Seat B. Finbarr Saunders drew three opponents — Kelly Absher, Paul Bonovich, and David Williams — in the race for At-Large Seat C.

Only one of the six district seats on City Council is up for election this year. Fifth District Council Member Mark Campen has one opponent, Jennifer Mirtes. Municipal Court Judge John Rosson, Jr. has no opposition. The qualifying deadline for all of these races was last Thursday, and candidates have until noon this Thursday, June 25, to withdraw, or their names will appear on the ballot regardless of whether they mount a campaign or not.

To see the treasurer appointed by each candidate, along with the list of individuals who signed their nominating petitions, visit http://knoxcounty.org/election/ and click on “Officials and Candidates” at the top of the page, then on “Petitions and Financial Disclosures.”

On the calendar, August 31 is the last day to register for the primary election, which is on September 2. October 5 is the last day to register for the General Election, which is on Tuesday, Nov. 4.

Visit http://knoxcounty.org/election/ to confirm that you are registered to vote, and, if not, to learn how and where to register. The site will also list early voting locations and times.

9. MPC Offers FAQ on the Siting of Cell Phone Towers

Get ready for more applications for cell phone towers in Knoxville and Knox County — and in residential neighborhoods.

Due to increasing demand for wireless communications and capacity to handle broadband transmissions, cell phone companies are constantly seeking to expand and upgrade their networks.

Three cell phone tower applications were on the June agenda for the Metropolitan Planning Commission (MPC), all from the same applicant. All three items were postponed. The proposed locations for these towers include Lakemoor Hills in South Knox County, the Bluegrass area in West Knox County, and a parcel between Martha Berry Drive and Ridgecrest Drive in North Knoxville.

To a limited degree, federal law allows local governments to regulate the placement of cell phone towers, but the cell phone company’s primary hurdle is to prove that a particular tower location is essential to providing service to its customers — and that it does not have access to another tower or structure on which to place its antenna in order to obtain the required coverage.

To assess cell tower applications, MPC retains a consultant, Larry Perry, who recently presented the MPC Executive Committee with answers to frequently asked questions (FAQ) about cell phone towers. MPC has made this document available on its website. Browse to www.knoxmpc.org and locate the cell tower article on the home page.

In addition, visit http://archive.knoxmpc.org/plans/wireless/index.htm to see a copy of MPC’s longer and more technical Wireless Communications Plan.

For details on the three pending tower applications, click on the “Branch Towers” items in the June MPC agenda, which can be found at http://agenda.knoxmpc.org/Jun15.pdf.

10. Neighborhoods: Stay Informed on Upcoming MPC Agenda Items

Neighborhood organizations that wish to keep track of new commercial developments, rezonings and related matters in or near their neighborhoods are encouraged to follow the Metropolitan Planning Commission (MPC) via Facebook, Twitter and email.

MPC acts as the planning department for both the City of Knoxville and Knox County, and all rezonings, development plans and uses on review originate there.

To get on the email list, just browse to www.knoxmpc.org and look for the article at the bottom of the page titled “Keep up with MPC…”

Those on the email list recently received a notice that MPC has posted a list of requests for plan amendments, rezonings, approval of development plans, and uses on review that likely will be on MPC’s agenda for its July 9 monthly meeting.

Note that this list of requests, posted about three weeks prior to each meeting, is later replaced by the preliminary agenda about two weeks out, and then by the Agenda Package on the Friday afternoon before the MPC monthly meeting.

For more, see http://agenda.knoxmpc.org/index.htm.

11. Community Schools Expand to Three New Sites

In partnership with Knox County Schools, the Great Schools Partnership Community Schools Initiative is expanding to include three additional sites: Beaumont Magnet Academy, Dogwood Elementary School and Northwest Middle School.

“We look forward to partnering with the school administrators, staff, students and parents, along with neighborhood leaders, businesses and other stakeholders at these three schools,” said Stephanie Welch, vice president of operations for Community Schools at the Great Schools Partnership. “Working together, we will move closer to the vision of healthy communities with schools at the center.”

New Community Schools are identified using a variety of criteria, including school academic performance, student behavior, discipline referrals and socioeconomic indicators. School administration and faculty support, as well as community interest, are also key considerations.

These schools join eight existing Community Schools: Christenberry, Green Magnet, Lonsdale, Norwood, Pond Gap, Sarah Moore Green Magnet, and South Knoxville Elementary Schools, along with Vine Magnet Middle School. The community school at Pond Gap is a partnership with the University of Tennessee.

Community Schools marshal community resources for student success, family health and neighborhood safety. They are open for extended hours and offer additional instruction time as well as recreational, arts, mental health, adult education and other services. Each Community School is guided by a site steering committee composed of school staff, teachers, parents, businesses and other community leaders. Community Schools are funded through a blend of public and private contributions.

For more, see http://www.greatschoolspartnership.com/ and visit the Facebook page.

12. UT Sponsors Youth Transit Camp

The University of Tennessee this summer is providing a three-day “transit camp” for high school students (rising freshmen through seniors).

The event — staged by the Center for Transportation Research within the College of Engineering — will include three full days of information and experience regarding public transit systems. Students will tour the KAT bus facilities in Knoxville, participate in a city-wide scavenger hunt on the transit system, and take a trip to Atlanta, Ga., to ride MARTA.

The event takes place Wednesday through Friday, July 29-31, from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. but the last day is longer. The cost is $99, lunch is provided each day, and dinner is also provided on the third day.

For more, visit http://ctr.utk.edu/education/k12.html or contact Tammy Enix at 974-4621 or [email protected]. See http://ctr.utk.edu/education/registration.php to register online.

13. Knox Heritage Seeks Salvage Proposals

The Knox Heritage Salvage Shop is now accepting proposals for its annual fundraiser, The Salvage Show, whose mission is to showcase unique and creative ways salvage can be used in art and design while benefitting the work of Knox Heritage.

Deadline for proposals is July 8 and may be sent to [email protected]. All pieces will be available to purchase through a silent auction on Friday, August 7 at the shop. For details, visit www.knoxheritage.org/salvage . To set up an appointment to pick up salvage or to submit a proposal, email Beth at [email protected] or call 865-313-2111.

Knoxville Neighborhood Advisory

Knoxville Neighborhood Advisory – Vol. 8, No. 20 – Tuesday June 16, 2015

For a PDF version of this issue, click here: http://bit.ly/NeighborhoodNewsletter_vol8no20

1. Fairmont-Emoriland Schedules Yard Sale
2. Lyons View Plans Cook-Out, Appreciation Day
3. Sharp Shares Stories from Houston Conference
4. CAC Taking Applications for Community Leadership Class
5. This Thursday is “Try Transit Day”
6. BZA Meets Thursday, Can Impact Your Neighborhood
7. Health Fair Offers Free Screenings, Other Services
8. Neighborhood and Government Calendar

Published by the City of Knoxville’s Office of Neighborhoods to report news important to Knoxville’s residential neighborhoods. News & calendar deadline: 5 p.m. Mondays.

1. Fairmont-Emoriland Schedules Yard Sale

The Fairmont-Emoriland Neighborhood Association (FENA) is providing publicity for a neighborhood-wide yard sale this coming Saturday, June 20, from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m.

Four households are participating: 2204 Emoriland Blvd., 1517 Emoriland Blvd.,
1921 Fairmont Blvd., and 2217 Barton Street. FENA Member Lauren McKim ([email protected]) arranged publicity via Facebook, Craigslist and the News Sentinel.

A neighborhood-wide yard sale is a good community-building event. Your neighborhood organization can help neighbors increase sales because bargain hunters know they will find multiple events in a relatively small area. Some neighborhoods ask participants to donate a portion of the proceeds to the organization. Others end the day with an ice cream social or other social activity.

2. Lyons View Plans Cook-Out, Appreciation Day

Lyons View Community Club (LVCC) has announced a community event and cook-out to be held, rain or shine, from 4:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 20, at the Lyons View Community Center, playground, and William E. Davis Jr. Pavilion, all located at 114 Sprankle Street in West Knoxville.

“The main purpose of this year’s event,” according to LVCC’s announcement, “is to show our appreciation to the many individuals, churches, organizations, businesses, elected officials, and both City and County Mayors and their respective staffs for all they continue to do to support this community.”

In addition, the group will recognize LVCC Past President Walter Keith, who died early this year, for his contributions to the historic, African American community.

“Additional time will be provided for continued socializing, music (provided by Geno Bailey), dancing, playing cards, and just reminiscing at the Lyons View Recreation Center and pavilion from 7:30 p.m. until 9:00 p.m.”

Please bring a covered dish to share. Contact Mary Brewster at 865-454-2390 or [email protected] to let her know the dish you would like to bring. Meats (chicken, ribs, hamburgers and hot dogs) and assorted drinks will be provided by the Lyons View Community Club.

All participants should park at Church of the Ascension, 800 Northshore Drive. A shuttle van will be available from 4 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. to transport visitors to and from the community center. Due to very limited parking at the Center, vehicles for handicapped individuals and emergency services will be the only ones admitted at the LVCC playground.

3. Sharp Shares Stories from Houston Conference

Debbie Sharp, the assistant neighborhoods coordinator in the Office of Neighborhoods, recently attended the annual Neighborhoods, USA conference in Houston, Texas, and she is sharing what she learned on the Office of Neighborhoods blog.

Visit http://www.knoxvilletn.gov/neighborhoods to see the first of several blog posts on the conference. Just click on “Office of Neighborhoods Blog.” This first post highlights the fact that, for the most successful neighborhood organizations, human resources are more important than financial resources.

We have also posted pictures from the June 15 West Hills picnic.

4. CAC Taking Applications for Community Leadership Class

The Knoxville-Knox County Community Action Committee (CAC) is seeking applicants for its 29th Community Leadership class.

Each year, CAC offers free leadership training to 30 current and emerging leaders who live, work or volunteer in low-to-moderate income communities, and who have demonstrated a commitment to service. Individuals who work with agencies or programs which affect these neighborhoods are also encouraged to apply.

Key selection factors will be the interest and demonstrated community commitment of each potential participant. Those chosen class members will be asked to commit one day each month to the training program from Sept. 2015-June 2016. Overall topics include business economics, media, social and neighborhood issues, education, and local government.

The objectives of Community Leadership are to:
• Strengthen the capacity for leadership at the grassroots level.
• Create a learning atmosphere which crosses economic, social, racial and demographic lines.
• Acquaint participants with formal and informal decision-making channels.
• Challenge and motivate individuals to become more involved in community affairs.

Any individual may apply or nominate someone else. More detailed information and applications are available at CAC Neighborhood Centers and the CAC Central Office located at 2247 Western Ave. Or email [email protected]. The application deadline is Friday, August 7. For additional information, contact Lori Galbraith at 776-0094.

5. This Thursday is “Try Transit Day”

Ever considered commuting via transit but just felt like you didn’t know where to start?

This Thursday, June 18, Knoxville Area Transit (KAT) is offering “Try Transit Day” – an opportunity to hop on the bus and enjoy a relaxing ride into work. For more, see:
http://knoxvilletn.gov/cms/One.aspx?portalId=109562&pageId=257685

6. BZA Meets Thursday, Can Impact Your Neighborhood

Does your neighborhood organization care about how close a building can be to the street or a neighboring property (known as setback requirements)?

How about the size, height and shape of commercial signs? The size of parking lots and driveway widths? The number of required parking spaces for nearby businesses?

If so, then you may wish to pay close attention to the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA). See http://knoxvilletn.gov/government/boards_commissions/board_of_zoning_appeals/.

Established by city ordinance, BZA hears appeals of denials of building permits by the city’s Building Inspections Department. The board, consisting of five citizens appointed by the Mayor, meets at 4 p.m. on the third Thursday of each month in the Small Assembly Room of the City County Building.

Thus BZA meets this coming Thursday, June 18. Addresses on the agenda include 1215 Snowdon Drive, 937 N. Broadway, 1915 Cumberland Avenue, 1830 Cumberland Avenue, 242 E. Anderson Avenue, 800 and 804 Tyson Street, 5839 Washington Pike, 311 East Scott Avenue, 5316 Kingston Pike, 1101 Phillips Avenue, 915 Luttrell Street, and 100 S. Broadway.

The BZA agenda is posted no later than the Monday prior to the BZA meeting:

Click to access agenda_bza.pdf

Keep up with how the BZA might impact your neighborhood. Watch for the black and white signs indicating that there is a pending decision on a particular piece of property. Most signs are for Metropolitan Planning Commission issues — which are also important — but signs with the word “variance” are BZA items.

A neighborhood group that keeps track of BZA will request and study the paperwork on a particular appeal, decide whether to take a position on the appeal, and then attend the BZA meeting to voice the group’s support or objections.

Decisions of the BZA can be appealed within 15 days of the BZA decision to Knoxville City Council. Appeals of a City Council decision are made to Chancery Court within 60 days of a City Council decision related to BZA.

7. Health Fair Offers Free Screenings, Other Services

The Knoxville Area Programs and Partnerships for Achievement (KAPPA) Foundation is hosting a community health fair at Vine Middle School, 1807 Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue, on Saturday, June 20, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Although the Knoxville Community Men’s Health Fair is focused on men’s health issues, there will be free screenings, health education highlights, and other services that can benefit every attendee. The fair will foster a fun and supportive environment focused on engaging the community on the importance of prevention to deter serious health issues.

The fair strives to increase awareness of local, state, and national health services as well as to motivate participants to make positive health behavior changes.

See http://bit.ly/1IJMSEM to view the promotional poster of the event and to see a list of the screenings offered. To schedule a screening in advance, call 865-633-9050.

For additional information, or to request booth space, contact Wayne Carlton at [email protected] or 865-599-9093.

Stray dog

June 16, 2015 by John Rennie

A friend of mine who walks the Montlake-Timberlake-Maloney block has seen a stray dog around the Montlake-Timberlake intersection the last two days. It is a carmel colored lab. It has a chain color. This  morning it followed him part way down Timberlake.

From: Wendy Subject: Suspicious vehicle Message Body: There is an active situation in the neighborhood on Timberlake. A silver Impala with 4 men in the car are currently going door to door spreading Gods word and an event to take place at Thompson Bowling Arena in July. Please be cautious. In the past, these situations are cover-ups for scoping out our homes. As a reminder, keep your doors locked, including your vehicles, and try to keep expensive items such as lawn equipment and computers out of plain sight. Do not answer your door if you are not expecting company and call 911. These people tend to pose as normal, trustworthy people to gain your trust. Do not let anyone in your home unless you know them personally. Be skeptical! I have reported the suspicious vehicle to the police, along with descriptions and tag numbers. Many of you whom I called, were not home at the time if the incident. Please check your belongings and notify police if you find something missing. The incident occurred around 10:20 a.m. Be safe everyone!

MPC wireless communication facilities plan

June 10, 2015 by David Wiles

While researching the issue of the cell tower in our neighborhood,  I found the Knoxville-Knox County Metropolitan Planning Commission web site for wireless communication facilities plan.   The link is below.   Specifically look at Exhibit 6 pointing out that cell towers in residential areas are to be avoided.  If the MPC would follow their own guidelines, then the tower would not be allowed.
