We, the undersigned property owners of surrounding neighborhoods and Beaver Brook Country Club stockholders and members, strongly oppose the proposed rezoning application for high-density residential development (5 dwellings per acre) on the approximately 20-acre parcel bordered by Beaver Brook Country Club, Cunningham Road, Shady Lane, and across from Regency Heights.
Our Position:
The proposed development density of 5 dwellings per acre would:
- Allow nearly 100 homes on this parcel
- Significantly exceed the existing residential density of surrounding neighborhoods
- Create substantial traffic congestion on Cunningham Road
- Fundamentally alter the established character of the Beaver Brook area
- Negatively impact property values in adjacent communities
Our Request:
We petition for a maximum density of no more than 2 dwellings per acre, which would:
- Better align with the existing neighborhood character
- Encourage the construction of higher-value homes, enhancing the surrounding property
- Protect the interests of Beaver Brook Country Club members and stockholders
- Preserve property values for surrounding homeowners
- Maintain sustainable traffic levels on local roads
Petition Statement:
We, the undersigned, respectfully request that the relevant zoning authorities reject the current high-density proposal (5 dwellings per acre) and instead support development that does not exceed 2 dwellings per acre for this parcel. This lower density will help preserve the character and value of our community while allowing for reasonable development of the property.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people care about preserving Beaver Brook. This momentum belongs entirely to the neighbors who decided to speak up.

All of the surrounding neighborhoods have one to three homes per acre and consist of single family dwellings. Development of this property should reflect the character of the area.
I live local to this area and already have concerns with traffic on the busy 2 lane road and I believe that the addition of more living space is going to raise more issues. I also value the beauty of the golf course and believe it provides more value to the area than another high density living space.
BBCC Member and BeaverBrook Place Condo resident. Density, neighborhood integrity and culture are at stake here, do not disrupt what we have and enjoyed for many years!
BBCC Member and area resident. Currently without any development on this parcel of property, Cunningham Road is very dangerous with speeding vehicles and many connecting roads with unsafe site distances.
The heavy influx of people entering and exiting the new housing areas poses a serious risk to those crossing on the golf course; it could lead to fatal accidents.
Traffic is already bad enough with people who work west and live in Corryton and Maynardville !! Don't want it to get like west Knox!!!!
Vote No on this rezoning I live in this area and do not desire this rezoning at all.

I am a home owner and active voter in this neighborhood and absolutely oppose this development. As a major developer myself, I do appreciate developments, but not this one in this place
