Petition to oppose the rezoning of 1015 E Copeland Rd from Agricultural to Residential.

This would ruin the area. The roads can't handle any more development.

The roads cannot handle the traffic. 5 homes per acre is too much.

There are not enough roads around the area for 412 homes...or even 100 homes, for that matter. The amount of cars in the area is already saturated.

The surrounding roads and schools cannot support 400 more homes.

Emory Rd is not capable of handling 400 more families of traffic. Its already backed up past Prestige Cleaners all day a lot of days

Terrible

Please consider our concerns.

5 units per acre is far out-of-character with the area. Infrastructure cannot cope with this increase.

I have lived in this area for 30+ years, and I oppose the rezoning of this property. Yes, the infrastructure will not support another subdivision. More importantly, we don’t need more houses to look at.

This part of Knox County does not have the necessary infrastructure to support this new development.

I live across from this area. The proposal for the number of housing units combined with current traffic patterns and narrow roads is a recipe for greatly increased accidents in the area.

Stop this madness, our kids will lose their schools and Powell infrastructure cannot support this. there are farms here with cows.. If have to rezone no more than 1 house per 5 acers

Please keep this land agricultural!!!

Nobto rezoning! Horrible mistake. Emory Rd is a parking lot already

This would be a horrible mistake. The roads here in Powell cannot accommodate the traffic we already have. It is a nightmare on Emory around 5:30 in the afternoons and on weekends. We only a few roads where we can get out of Teague's Grove to get on Emory and they are narrow two lane exits. NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!

I fail to see what value more homes and more traffic will bring to the community.

As a resident of this community, I have daily experience with the lack of infrastructure to support a housing development of this magnitude. The existing roadways are not suitable for the additional traffic, nor are the school systems capable of absorbing the potential increase in students.

Please consider the negative impact the addition of 400+ homes, approximately 800 cars will have on this community. First, Bishop and Tate Trotter are extremely narrow roads and East Copeland where people are now traveling to avoid Emory Rd. is essentially a 1.5 lane country road, NOT intended to handle the volume of traffic currently on it, let alone an increase in traffic. This would be a terrible addition to our community at a profit to only a few. Secondly, it would create a huge burden to an already crowded Powell school system.

This is ridiculous to even consider rezoning to residential.

This would Place a burden on the community just so a few developers could make a big profit
