4 issues in zoning with low priority
ETJ lot combination at 2630 Lookout Mountain Road
A rural landowner is combining two adjacent lots into one 54.94-acre tract in the ETJ, with right-of-way dedicated along Lookout Mountain Road. It keeps the existing septic, well, and single access point.
Genesis Farms cannabis license renewal
Renewed the cannabis establishment license at 320 26th Street, Suite 5 — same LLC as before, new contact person, a few staff changes, $5,000 renewal fee already paid.
Setback variance for older downtown lots
A homeowner at 345 N 8th Street wants to build a carport just 5 feet from the property line instead of the required 25 feet, thanks to the odd lot shape and an unimproved street segment. The variance heads to the Board of Adjustment on August 3rd.
