Board of Zoning Appeals Meeting Minutes March 2, 2021

Members Present Members Absent Lesley Musick, Chair Nes Levotch Wayne Rupert, Vice-Chair Skip Oldham Larry England Visitors Staff Present Saul Rodriguez Angie Charles Sally Fletcher Chris Pape Rebecca Meador

Chair Musick called the meeting to order at 9:00 A.M., and the attendance roster circulated.

A motion was made by Vice-Chair Rupert, seconded by Mr. England, to approve the February 2, 2021 minutes as submitted. The motion was approved unanimously (3-0).

The Board considered a variance request from Saul & Lisa Rodriguez for property located at 273 Dunbar Rd (File #21WC-00073), for an accessory structure to be placed in the front yard. Section 601.1.14 of the Zoning Resolution, requires accessory structures to be placed in the side or rear yard.

The Chair opened the public hearing. The petitioner, Mr. Saul Rodriguez, spoke in favor of the request explaining that, due to the irregular lot shape and topography of his lot, the front yard was only suitable buildable location. Mrs. Rebecca Meador (261 Dunbar Rd) and Mrs. Sally Fletcher (271 Dunbar Rd) also both spoke in favor of the request. Seeing no one else present to speak, the Chair closed the public hearing.

Staff presented the recommendation of approval based on the lot’s shape and its topographic challenges. The Board was also advised of a phone call received from a neighboring resident located along Pepper Mill Rd who expressed support of the request.

There being no further discussion, a motion was made by Vice-Chair Rupert, seconded by Mr. England, to approve the variance request based on staff’s recommendation. The motion carried unanimously (3-0).

There being no further business, Mr. England made a motion to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Vice-Chair Rupert. The motion carried unanimously (3-0), and the meeting adjourned at 9:13 A.M.

Rezoning Request – A-1 to A-3 330 Highway 107, Jonesborough, TN 37659 Tax Map 90, Parcel 58.01 & Portion of Parcel 57, 6th Civil District

Owner/Petitioner: Stephen & Tammy Bentley

Size: 7.15 acres

Current Land Use: Riverview Campground and Vacant

Proposed Land Use: Maintain Current Use and Campground Expansion

East: A-1, General Agriculture Vacant and Agriculture

West: R-1, Low Density Residential, Single-Family Residential and & A-1, General Agriculture Agriculture

Analysis: A rezoning request has been submitted for the purpose of expanding an existing commercial campground (Riverview Campground). Water is available from the Town of Jonesborough and adequate for the proposed expansion (public sewer is not available). Hwy 107 is an ‘arterial’ road, extending southwest from SR-81S to Greene County. The surrounding zoning is A-1 (General Agriculture) and the land uses in the area are predominately agricultural and residential.

The petitioner provided a conceptual plan that reflects the location of 20 additional camping spaces and an equipment shop.

Rezoning Request – A-1 to R-1 228 Arrowood Rd, Jonesborough, TN 37659 Tax Map 83, Parcel 186, 4th Civil District

Owner/Petitioner: Paul & Wanda Davis

Agent: Jeffrey Jackson

Size: 0.83 acres

Current Land Use: Residential

Proposed Land Use: Residential

Current Zoning: A-1, General Agriculture

Requested Zoning: R-1, Low Density Residential

South: A-1, General Agriculture Single-Family Residential

East: A-1, General Agriculture Single-Family Residential

West: A-1, General Agriculture Single-Family Residential

Analysis: A rezoning request has been submitted for the purpose of subdividing the property into two lots. The (minimum 15,000-sq.ft.) lot size in the R-1 district will allow for the division, placing the existing residences on separate lots. The property is too small to subdivide into two lots with the current zoning designation in place as the A-1 district has a minimum half-acre lot size requirement. According to the Town of Jonesborough, water is available to the property but sewer is not available. The zoning in the area is A-1, with the predominate land use being residential. A Concept Plan is not required for this request, per Section 511 of the Zoning Resolution.

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning of Tax Map 83 Parcel 186, from A-1 to R-1, as requested.

THE WASHINGTON COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS APPROVAL (5-0)

Owner/Petitioner: Petie & Phyllis Gardner

Size: 9.45 acres

Current Land Use: Vacant

Proposed Land Use: Multi-Family Residential

Surrounding Zoning Surrounding Land Use North: M-1, Industrial, and City of Sid Martin Rd & City Corp Johnson City

East: M-1, Industrial, & B-3, General Vacant & Landscaping Business Business

West: R-3A, High Density Residential, Station Park at Gray (Townhomes, & M-1, Industrial 88-units) & Mountain States Offices

Analysis: A rezoning request has been submitted for the property to accommodate a 72-unit multi-family development. The development will have access and an entrance onto Sid Martin Rd, a local street. Water and sewer are available from the City of Johnson City and adequate for the proposed use.

The surrounding zoning is varied, with portions being located within Johnson City’s corporate limits. Being that the neighboring land uses span from vacant to industrial, the request is not out of scale or character with the area. High density residential would be complimentary by providing housing close to the major thoroughfare (Bobby Hicks Hwy), allowing residents opportunities to walk or bike to establishments should they not wish to travel by car. The intersection of Sid Martin Rd and Bobby Hicks Hwy is signalized, and there is also a controlled crosswalk to assist with pedestrian crossings to the northern side of Bobby Hicks Hwy.

Page 20 of 215

A Conceptual Plan is required for this rezoning request. The submitted plan depicts the location of the multi-family units, parking, mail kiosk, and stormwater detention area. The proposed 72-units and 150 parking spaces are in compliance with zoning requirements.

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of rezoning Tax Map 12 Parcel 57, from M-1 to R-3A, as requested.

The parcel exceeds 100 acres in size with minimal variation in topography. The rezoning request is to allow for a proposed solar farm to be placed on the property. The surrounding zoning is A-1 (General Agriculture) and the land uses in the area are predominately agricultural and residential.

The petitioner, Silicon Ranch Corp., presently operates another solar farm in Washington County (off Miller Rd, behind Aerojet). A Conceptual Plan is required for this rezoning request. The submitted plan depicts the location of the solar panels and two internal driveways that will provide access from Martin Rd. If rezoned, prior to the issuance of a Building Permit, a Site Plan must be approved by the Planning Commission.

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning of Tax Map 33 Parcel 65 (158 Martin Rd), from A-1 to A-3, as requested.

THE WASHINGTON COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS APPROVAL (5-0)

HONORING THE WASHINGTON COUNTY-JONESBOROUGH LIBRARY UPON ITS 125TH ANNIVERSARY AND UPON ITS 75TH ANNIVERSARY AS A DEPARTMENT OF WASHINGTON COUNTY

WHEREAS, the Washington County-Jonesborough Library took up residence in what was once known as Duncan’s Meadow just in time for the Tennessee Homecoming ‘86 celebration; and

WHEREAS, the library’s story began in 1896 when Mrs. L. H. Patton and Mrs. J. B. Simpson traveled to New York and obtained a commitment for 300 books from the Lend A Hand Society to begin Jonesborough’s first library; in that memorable year, what would become the Washington County-Jonesborough Library began in one small room on the first floor of a building on Jonesborough’s Main Street, opening for one hour once a week, on Wednesday afternoons; and

WHEREAS, Mrs. Patton envisioned a library that served the county far beyond its four walls; so, shortly before the turn of the century, Mrs. Patton had a bookcase made, filled it with books and placed it on a buggy, giving Jonesborough its first traveling library, foreshadowing the Bookmobile Station and branch library in Gray that became a reality in the early 1970’s; and

WHEREAS, for 50 years, between 1902 and 1952, the library’s holdings were housed in many different locations, including accommodations made possible by the Jonesborough’s Schubert Club, the Banking and Trust Company, the then-new Jonesborough High School, and the Grand Jury Room of the Washington County courthouse, and, with the move to the Chester Inn in 1952, the Washington County Library Association was created and the library was officially named; and

WHEREAS, today, as the library boldly steps into the era of technology which enables the library to better serve the community in a number of ways, the current director, Mr. Richard Griffin, credits the strong foundation laid by Mrs. Panhorst Cooke, Mrs. Margaret Henry, Mrs. Louise Wine, Mrs. Johnny Fox, Mrs. Fred Hensley, and Ms. Suzanne Tuggle; and

WHEREAS, in addition to librarians, Jonesborough’s citizens demonstrated their ever-increasing commitment to the library each and every year, from Mr. Rhea Wells’ bequest of his home which was the source, in 1977, of the story time program for preschoolers, to the 1978 organization of a Friends Group founded to expand and promote library services and raise money through popular town events; and

WHEREAS, building on the success of the Washington County-Jonesborough Library and its branch in Gray, the Washington County Library Foundation, formed in 2020, is working toward raising funds to build and furnish two new library facilities; now, therefore,

BE IT RESOLVED that we honor the staff and supporters of the Washington County-Jonesborough Library, celebrate with them the library’s rich history, and congratulate them upon 125 years of unparalleled service to the community and 75 years as a department of Washington County government.

ADOPTED BY THE COUNTY LEGISLATIVE BODY, in session duly assembled, on this, the 22nd day of March 2021.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of Washington County, Tennessee to be affixed in Jonesborough on this 22nd day of March 2021.

IX. EMPLOYEE COMPLAINT PROCEDURE

If any employee feels that he is assigned to work in conditions which might affect his health, safety, or general welfare at the present time or at any time in the future, he should report the condition to the Safety Director of Occupational Safety and Health. a. The complaint should be in the form of a letter and give details on the condition(s) and how the employee believes it affects or will affect his health, safety, or general welfare. The employee should sign the letter but need not do so if he wishes to remain anonymous (see subsection (h) of Section 1 of this plan).

b. Upon receipt of the complaint letter, the Safety Director will evaluate the condition(s) and institute any corrective action, if warranted. Within ten (10) working days following the receipt of the complaint, the Safety Director will answer the complaint in writing stating whether or not the

Resolution No. 21-03-08 Page 132 of 215 Page 11 of 21 Originating Committee: Employee Comp & Benefits Additional Approving Committee:

complaint is deemed to be valid and if no, why not, what action has been or will be taken to correct or abate the condition(s), and giving a designated time period for correction or abatement. Answers to anonymous complaints will be posted upon bulletin boards or other places of common passage where the anonymous complaint may be reasonably expected to be seen by the complainant for a period of three (3) working days.

c. If the complainant finds the reply not satisfactory because it was held to be invalid, the corrective action is felt to be insufficient, or the time period for correction is felt to be too long, he may forward a letter to the Chief Executive Officer or to the governing body explaining the condition(s) cited in his original complaint and why he believes the answer to be inappropriate or insufficient.

d. The Chief Executive Officer or a representative of the governing body will evaluate the complaint and will begin to take action to correct or abate the condition(s) through arbitration or administrative sanctions or may find the complaint to be invalid. An answer will be sent to the complainant within ten (10) working days following receipt of the complaint or the next regularly scheduled meeting of the governing body following receipt of the complaint explaining decisions made and action taken or to be taken.

e. After the above steps have been followed and the complainant is still not satisfied with the results, he may then file a complaint with the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development. Any complaint filed with the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development in such cases shall include copies of all related correspondence with the Safety Director and the Chief Executive Officer or the representative of the governing body.

f. Copies of all complaint and answers thereto will be filed by the Safety Director who shall make them available to the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development or his designated representative upon request.

X. EDUCATION AND TRAINING

a. Safety Director and/or Compliance Inspector(s):

1. Arrangements will be made for the Safety Director and/or Compliance Inspector(s) to attend training seminars, workshops, etc., conducted by the State of Tennessee or other agencies. A list of Seminars can be obtained.

2. Access will be made to reference materials such as 29 CFR 1910 General Industry Regulations; 29 CFR 1926 Construction Industry Regulations; The Rules of Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development Occupational Safety and Health, and other equipment/supplies, deemed necessary for use in conducting compliance inspections, conducting local training, wiring technical reports, and informing officials, supervisors, and employees of the existence of safety and health hazards will be furnished.

b. All Employees (including supervisory personnel):

A suitable safety and health training program for employees will be established. This program will, as a minimum: 1. Instruct each employee in the recognition and avoidance of hazards or unsafe conditions and of standards and regulations applicable to the employees work environment to control or eliminate any hazards, unsafe conditions, or other exposures to occupational illness or injury.

2. Instruct employees who are required to handle or use poisons, acids, caustics, toxicants, flammable liquids or gases, explosives, and other harmful substances in the proper handling procedures and use of such items and make them aware of the personal protective measures, person hygiene, etc., which may be required.

3. Instruct employees who may be exposed to environments where harmful plants or animals are present, of the hazards of the environment, how to best avoid injury or exposure, and the

Resolution No. 21-03-08 Page 133 of 215 Page 12 of 21 Originating Committee: Employee Comp & Benefits Additional Approving Committee:

first aid procedures to be followed in the event of injury or exposure.

4. Instruct all employees of the common deadly hazards and how to avoid them, such as Falls; Equipment Turnover; Electrocution; Struck by/Caught In; Trench Cave In; Heat Stress; and Drowning.

5. Instruct employees on hazards and dangers of confined or enclosed spaces.

i. Confined or enclosed space means space having a limited means of egress and which is subject to the accumulation of toxic or flammable contaminants or has an oxygen deficient atmosphere. Confined or enclosed spaces include, but are not limited to, storage tanks, boilers, ventilation or exhaust ducts, sewers, underground utility accesses, tunnels, pipelines, and open top spaces more than four feet (4) in depth such as pits, tubs, vaults, and vessels.

ii. Employees will be given general instruction on hazards involved, precautions to be taken, and on use of personal protective and emergency equipment required. They shall also be instructed on all specific standards or regulations that apply to work in dangerous or potentially dangerous areas.

iii. The immediate supervisor of any employee who must perform work in a confined or enclosed space shall be responsible for instructing employees on danger of hazards which may be present, precautions to be taken, and use of personal protective and emergency equipment, immediately prior to their entry into such an area and shall require use of appropriate personal protective equipment.

XI. GENERAL INSPECTION PROCEDURES

It is the intention of the governing body and responsible officials to have an Occupational Safety and Health Program Plan that will insure the welfare of employees. In order to be aware of hazards, periodic inspections must be performed. These inspections will enable the finding of hazards or unsafe conditions or operations that will need correction in order to maintain safe and healthful worksites. Inspections made on a pre-designated basis may not yield the desired results. Inspections will be conducted, therefore, on a random basis at intervals not to exceed thirty (30) calendar days. a. In order to carry out the purposes of this Resolution, the Safety Director and/or Compliance Inspector(s), if appointed, is authorized:

1. To enter at any reasonable time, any establishment, facility, or worksite where work is being performed by an employee when such establishment, facility, or worksite is under the jurisdiction of the employer and;

2. To inspect and investigate during regular working hours and at other reasonable times, within reasonable limits, and in a reasonable manner, any such place of employment and all pertinent conditions, processes, structures, machines, apparatus, devices, equipment, and materials therein, and to question privately any supervisor, operator, agent, or employee working therein.

b. If an imminent danger situation is found, alleged, or otherwise brought to the attention of the Safety Director or Inspector during a routine inspection, he shall immediately inspect the imminent danger situation in accordance with Section XII of this plan before inspecting the remaining portions of the establishment, facility, or worksite.

c. An administrative representative of the employer and a representative authorized by the employees shall be given an opportunity to consult with and/or to accompany the Safety Director or Inspector during the physical inspection of any worksite for the purpose of aiding such inspection.

Resolution No. 21-03-08 Page 134 of 215 Page 13 of 21 Originating Committee: Employee Comp & Benefits Additional Approving Committee:

d. The right of accompaniment may be denied any person whose conduct interferes with a full and orderly inspection.

e. The conduct of the inspection shall be such as to preclude unreasonable disruptions of the operation(s) of the workplace.

f. Interviews of employees during the course of the inspection may be made when such interviews are considered essential to investigative techniques.

g. Advance Notice of Inspections.

1. Generally, advance notice of inspections will not be given as this precludes the opportunity to make minor or temporary adjustments in an attempt to create misleading impression of conditions in an establishment.

2. There may be occasions when advance notice of inspections will be necessary in order to conduct an effective inspection or investigation. When advance notice of inspection is given, employees or their authorized representative(s) will also be given notice of the inspection.

h. The Safety Director need not personally make an inspection of each and every worksite once every thirty (30) days. He may delegate the responsibility for such inspections to supervisors or other personnel provided:

1. Inspections conducted by supervisors or other personnel are at least as effective as those made by the Safety Director.

2. Records are made of the inspections, any discrepancies found and corrective actions taken. This information is forwarded to the Safety Director.

i. The Safety Director shall maintain records of inspections to include identification of worksite inspected, date of inspection, description of violations of standards or other unsafe conditions or practices found, and corrective action taken toward abatement. Those inspection records shall be subject to review by the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development or his authorized representative.

XII. IMMINENT DANGER PROCEDURES

a. Any discovery, any allegation, or any report of imminent danger shall be handled in accordance with the following procedures:

1. The Safety Director shall immediately be informed of the alleged imminent danger situation and he shall immediately ascertain whether there is a reasonable basis for the allegation.

2. If the alleged imminent danger situation is determined to have merit by the Safety Director, he shall make or cause to be made an immediate inspection of the alleged imminent danger location.

3. As soon as it is concluded from such inspection that conditions or practices exist which constitutes an imminent danger, the Safety Director or Compliance Inspector shall attempt to have the danger corrected. All employees at the location shall be informed of the danger and the supervisor or person in charge of the worksite shall be requested to remove employees from the area, if deemed necessary.

4. The administrative or operational head of the workplace in which the imminent danger exists, or his authorized representative, shall be responsible for determining the manner in which the imminent danger situation will be abated. This shall be done in cooperation with the Safety Director or Compliance Inspector and to the mutual satisfaction of all parties involved.

Resolution No. 21-03-08 Page 135 of 215 Page 14 of 21 Originating Committee: Employee Comp & Benefits Additional Approving Committee:

5. The imminent danger shall be deemed abated if:

i. The imminence of the danger has been eliminated by removal of employees from the area of danger. ii. Conditions or practices which resulted in the imminent danger have been eliminated or corrected to the point where an unsafe condition or practice no longer exists.

6. A written report shall be made by or to the Safety Director describing in detail the imminent danger and its abatement. This report will be maintained by the Safety Director in accordance with subsection (i) of Section XI of this plan.

b. Refusal to Abate.

1. Any refusal to abate an imminent danger situation shall be reported to the Safety Director and Chief Executive Officer immediately.

2. The Safety Director and/or Chief Executive Officer shall take whatever action may be necessary to achieve abatement.

XIII. ABATEMENT ORDERS AND HEARINGS

a. Whenever, as a result of an inspection or investigation, the Safety Director or Compliance Inspector(s) finds that a worksite is not in compliance with the standards, rules or regulations pursuant to this plan and is unable to negotiate abatement with the administrative or operational head of the worksite within a reasonable period of time, the Safety Director shall:

1. Issue an abatement order to the head of the worksite. 2. Post or cause to be posted, a copy of the abatement order at or near each location referred to in the abatement order.

c. At any time within ten (10) days after receipt of an abatement order, anyone affected by the order may advise the Safety Director in writing of any objections to the terms and conditions of the order. Upon receipt of such objections, the Safety Director shall act promptly to hold a hearing with all interested and/or responsible parties in an effort to resolve any objections. Following such hearing, the Safety Director shall, within three (3) working days, issue an abatement order and such subsequent order shall be binding on all parties and shall be final.

XIV. PENALTIES

a. No civil or criminal penalties shall be issued against any official, employee, or any other person for failure to comply with safety and health standards or any rules or regulations issued pursuant to this Program Plan. b. Any employee, regardless of status, who willfully and/or repeatedly violates, or causes to be violated, any safety and health standard, rule, or regulation or any abatement order shall be subject to disciplinary action by the appointing authority. It shall be the duty of the appointing authority to administer discipline by taking action in one of the following ways as appropriate and warranted:

1. Oral reprimand. 2. Written reprimand. 3. Suspension for three (3) or more working days.

XV. CONFIDENTIALITY OF PRIVILEGED INFORMATION

All information obtained by or reported to the Safety Director pursuant to this plan of operation or the legislation (resolution, or executive order) enabling this Occupational Safety and Health Program Plan which contains or might reveal information which is otherwise privileged shall be considered confidential. Such information may be disclosed to other officials or employees concerned with carrying out this Program Plan or when relevant in any proceeding under this Program Plan. Such information may also be disclosed to the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development or their authorized representatives in carrying out their duties under the Tennessee Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1972.

XVI. DISCRIMINATION INVESTIGATIONS AND SANCTIONS

The Rule of Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development Occupational Safety and Health, DISCRIMINATION AGAINST EMPLOYEES EXERCISING RIGHTS UNDER THE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ACT OF 1972 0800-01-08, as authorized by T.C.A., Title 50. The agency agrees that any employee who believes they have been discriminated against or discharged in violation of Tenn. Code Ann § 50-3-409 can file a complaint with their agency/safety Safety Director within 30 days, after the alleged discrimination occurred. Also, the agency agrees the employee has a right to file their complaint with the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development within the same 30 day period. The Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development may investigate such complaints, make recommendations, and/or issue a written notification of a violation.

XVII. COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER LAWS NOT EXCUSED

Ken Rea of the FTDD gave an update on the Taylor Bridge Road project through a power point presentation. In deeper review of the cost estimate of equipment it would be less expensive to purchase the needed equipment rather than renting. With equipment being purchased, the County would be required to fund approximately $1.5 million. Grant funding may be acquired in the amount of $200,000 which will reduce overall expenses. Chairman Davenport asked if the Task Force wanted to move forward in applying for grant funding. A motion was made by Commissioner Fitzgerald seconded by Mayor Grandy to move this forward to the March meeting of the Public Works Committee for consideration. Voice vote - unanimous yes. Motion carried. Application for grant funding will proceed to Public Works Committee in March for consideration.

Tom Whitherspoon – City of Johnson City, updated the Task Force that the City is waiting on survey results regarding the Bill Bennett Road project. Resident Frankie Casteel of Bill Bennett Road addressed the Task Force. Mr. Casteel is looking to subdivide a tract of land into multiple lots and would like the waterline extended down the south side of Bill Bennett Road. Mr. Casteel has spoken with City of Johnson City, where Travis Olinger advised Mr. Casteel to prepare a petition for potential customers and return said petition to the City of Johnson City for consideration.

Kevin Brobeck, Town of Jonesoborough gave no further update on the Greenwood Drive project.

Chairman Davenport gave a presentation to the Task Force, showing how installation and funding of waterline projects may be addressed. Chairman Davenport plans to present to the full Commission at their workshop on February 20, 2021. Tom Witherspoon asked for time to further review before presenting to the City Commission. Chairman Davenport agreed each municipality should review, as no commitment is required at this time, this is simply a suggested process as to how to move forward.

With no further business meeting was adjourned.
