Summary

Jacksonville planning staff told the board Jan. 12 that multiple large subdivisions and annexation requests are in process, a Harris Teeter gas-station plan was filed, and homeowners should follow nuisance rules for grass, trash cans and dilapidated fences.

At the Jan. 12 meeting Ryan delivered a staff report noting multiple large subdivisions are in process, several annexation requests have been filed, and a Harris Teeter gas-station plan recently arrived in staff review.

Ryan said the city has seen few production subdivisions in the last decade but now has two large subdivisions in the works and another recently started. He noted annexations go to city council and pointed to specific areas near Blue Creek School Road and the Walmart/Lowes corridor as corporate-limit edges. "We've got 2 large subdivisions, that are in the works, and another 1 that's already started," Ryan said.

Ryan also reminded residents about common code-enforcement issues: high grass and weeds, junk vehicles, standing water that can breed mosquitoes, and trash-can placement rules (cans may be left out for pickup but should be removed within the allowable period). He told viewers the municipal code and the Jacksonville Unified Development Ordinance are published online for public reference.

No formal board action was required for the staff report; the meeting then moved to adjournment.
