Community Needs Assessment Community Needs Assessment Clarksville, TN FY2016 Report Prepared by the HUD Nashville Field Office Community Needs Assessment OVERVIEW SUMMARY The City of Clarksville is the county seat of Montgomery County, Tennessee, and the fifth-largest city in the state of Tennessee. The city had a population of 132,957 at the 2010 census, and an estimated population of 142,519 in 2012. Clarksville is the fifth-fastest growing city in the nation, of cities with a population over 50,000. Today, Clarksville is a sprawling community that is growing at a phenomenal rate. The City of Clarksville is home to Austin Peay State University which has 10,000 students enrolled centered in its downtown area. The vast 105,000- acre Fort Campbell military base is situated on the north side of the city bordering the Kentucky state line. Fort Campbell the 164.17-square mile military post has 49 ranges, 5 drop zones, 3 impact areas, 2 demolition areas, 46 maneuver areas and 309 artillery firing points. Fort Campbell supports an estimated post population of 40,000. Clarksville has a strong economy, and has experienced job growth and new industrial investment over the last several years. Clarksville is broadening and becoming more sophisticated by opening up a greenway, and soon to open a marina, and visitors center at Fort Difiance. There are 36 schools in the Clarksville Montgomery County school district serving approximately 29,000 children from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade. Clarksville works to balance the environmental, social, and economic needs of the community through long-term planning. Clarksville has a strong tradition of growth planning, encouraging compactness to prevent sprawl, and development centered in and around the central business district to encourage people to visit, work and shop downtown and to foster an efficient public transit system. For the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD), Consolidated Planning funds, the City of Clarksville’s Office of Housing and Community Development Department (OHCD) coordinates the planning and administration of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership Funds. As an entitlement jurisdiction, the OHCD provides structure and shapes programmatic services for low-to-moderate income households. In order to meet local capacity, the Office of Housing and Community Development partners with nonprofits, Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDOs), City departments, contractors, faith-based organizations, lenders, and charities. The OHCD connects resources to redevelop and revitalize Clarksville’s lower income neighborhoods. 2 Community Needs Assessment Clarksville is served directly by the Clarksville Housing Authority (CHA). CHA operates 520 units of public housing in buildings located throughout the City. Approximately five percent of these units are handicapped-accessible. The CHA is a high performing agency under HUD’s Public Housing Assistance Program, which indicates that the Authority maintains quality rated administration, maintenance, resident support, and program management for its residents. Each year the CHA uses the Capital Fund grant to renovate and maintain the public housing stock. Current funding is being used to complete a variety of work items including interior and exterior renovations and completing air conditioning installation in all units. To enhance security, this grant also provides for additional lighting, fencing, exterior doors and windows. This ensures that the units are well maintained and viable as continued public housing stock. The CHA’s occupancy levels remain high, and the application process remains open despite a high waiting list. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION: The City of Clarksville has a Mayor and Council form of government. The Clarksville City Council meets in regular session on the first Thursday of the month in the City Council Chambers, 108 Public Square. Voters residing within the city limits elect the following city office holders Mayor, City Council members, and City Judge. City elections are held on the first Tuesday in November during even-numbered years. The terms of the council, members are staggered so that one–half of the council seats are up for election at one time. Council members are prohibited from serving more than three (3) consecutive terms in office. Council meetings are open to the public to solicit citizens input. For the Consolidated Planning programs, there is a Housing Community Development Committee (HCDC) which serves as the citizens input on the review of the Consolidated Planning programs. The HCDC also includes five (5) Mayor appointed City Council members. The committee meets once a month, and reviews the OHCD budget expenditures, and reviews ongoing and upcoming projects, as well as the goals and objectives, strategies and priority needs of the OHCD are being addressed. The OHCD administers CDBG and HOME funded programs and activities. The City works with local for –profit and non-profit agencies, lending, public, educational, and private institutions; and other governmental agencies. The City in working with a variety of community agencies over the last thirty years has a well-established structure for implementing the funded programs. The City of Clarksville’s Citizen’s Participation Plan (CPP) is designed to ensure citizen participation in all of the CDBG and HOME funded program areas and to meet the requirements set forth in Section 104 of the 1974 Housing and Community Development Act, as amended, and 24 CFR 91 to provide for citizen involvement in the planning and implementation of the City of Clarksville’s 3 Community Needs Assessment Consolidated Planning Programs. This Plan is an essential element of Clarksville’s present and future community development process and has been developed to comply with the regulations and requirements of the CDBG program. The CPP ensures continuity of citizen involvement in the planning, development, implementation and assessment of programs funded through the Office of Housing and Community Development. The CPP’s intent is to provide citizens with a better understanding of their role in the process and the steps they can take to become more active in all aspects of the City's Consolidated Planning Programs. It is periodically reviewed and updated to reflect any changes. HISTORY: The City was incorporated in 1785 as Tennessee's first incorporated city, and named for General George Rogers Clark, frontier fighter and Revolutionary War hero, and brother of William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Fort Campbell is a United States Army installation located astride the Kentucky-Tennessee border between Hopkinsville, Kentucky, and Clarksville, Tennessee. Fort Campbell is home to the 101st Airborne Division and the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment. The fort is named in honor of Union Army Brigadier General William Bowen Campbell, the last Whig Governor of Tennessee. The site for Camp Campbell was selected on July 16, 1941, and the Title I Survey was completed November 15, 1941, coincidentally the same time the Japanese Imperial Fleet was leaving Japanese home waters for the attack on Pearl Harbor. Construction of Camp Campbell began on January 12, 1942. Due to its close proximity to Clarksville, Tennessee, the War Department on March 6, 1942, designated Tennessee as the official address of the new camp. This caused a great deal of confusion, since the Headquarters was in Tennessee and the post office was in Kentucky. After many months of mail delivery problems, Colonel Guy W. Chipman requested that the address be changed to Camp Campbell, Kentucky. The War Department officially changed the address on September 23, 1942.

The individual, who is assigned to a tenant unit at the installation, is currently isolated at their off-post residence. The individual has shown symptoms but has not required hospitalization. Upon notification of the result, Fort Campbell officials and Blanchfield Army Community Hospital health professionals ensured the individual was medically cared for and immediately began conducting contact tracing to determine whether any others may have been exposed. If any individuals are determined to be at risk, they will be directly notified. Health professionals and leaders are coordinating closely with civilian authorities in the surrounding area to determine any potential risk of exposure off the installation. Fort Campbell officials are continually assessing the environment, and implementing all appropriate control measures to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, to include limiting staffing to mission essential personnel; modifying restaurant services to to-go posture; modifying dining facilities to grab- and-go posture; limiting childcare facilities to dependents of mission-essential personnel; and other safety and social distancing measures.

  • Multi-Millennial Record of Erosion and Fires in the Southern Blue Ridge Mountains, USA
    Chapter 8 Multi-millennial Record of Erosion and Fires in the Southern Blue Ridge Mountains, USA David S. Leigh Abstract Bottomland sediments from the southern Blue Ridge Mountains provide a coarse-resolution, multi-millennial stratigraphic record of past regional forest disturbance (soil erosion). This record is represented by 12 separate vertical accre- tion stratigraphic profi les that have been dated by radiocarbon, luminescence, cesium-137, and correlation methods continuously spanning the past 3,000 years of pre-settlement (pre-dating widespread European American settlement) and post- settlement strata. Post-settlement vertical accretion began in the late 1800s, appears to be about an order of magnitude faster than pre-settlement rates, and is attribut- able to widespread deforestation for timber harvest, farming, housing develop- ment, and other erosive activities of people. Natural, climate-driven, or non-anthropic forest disturbance is subtle and diffi cult to recognize in pre-settle- ment deposits. There is no indication that pre-settlement Mississippian and Cherokee agricultural activities accelerated erosion and sedimentation in the region. A continuous 11,244 years before present (BP) vertical accretion record from a meander scar in the Upper Little Tennessee River valley indicates abundant charcoal (prevalent fi res) at the very beginning of the Holocene (11,244–10,900 years BP). In contrast, moderate to very low levels of charcoal are apparent over the remaining Holocene until about 2,400 years BP when charcoal infl ux registers a pronounced increase. These data are consistent with the idea that Native Americans used fi re extensively to manage forests and to expanded agricultural activities during Woodland and later cultural periods over the past 3000 years.
