Summary

The Loudon City Board of Zoning Appeals voted to table a request to increase a driveway slope from 10% to 17% at Chestnut Lane after the applicant said the submitted materials were incomplete and the board agreed to let staff and the applicant revise the plans.

The Loudon City Board of Zoning Appeals tabled a variance request for 2122145 Chestnut Lane, which sought to increase a driveway slope from the 10% standard to 17%, after the applicant and the board agreed the submitted package was incomplete.

Reginald Bell (appearing as the applicant) told the board he had photos and handouts but also said he did not have exact cut-grade numbers because the site work had not begun. He said he was anxious to move in but conceded the drawings provided may not reflect final grade conditions and acknowledged his submission could result in slopes steeper than 17% when the driveway is cut.

Board members said they could either vote on the materials submitted or table the application until staff and the applicant could provide additional documentation. The applicant requested more time; a motion to table the application for one month was made and carried. The board instructed staff to review revised materials and the application will return to a future meeting after staff review.
