Votes at a glance: subdivision approved, junkyard permits renewed and routine appointments confirmed
Summary
The Planning Commission voted unanimously on several administrative and permitting items on Jan. 9, approving the Ratliff subdivision (with a variance), renewing two junkyard permits, confirming appointments and approving minutes and the agenda.
At its Jan. 9, 2025 meeting the Tazewell County Planning Commission recorded unanimous (5–0) votes on several items; two members were absent.
Ratliff Investment Company subdivision: The commission approved the subdivision with a required variance because the property has public water but no sewer or septic.

Motion by Member Hayden Lyons, second by Vice‑Chairman Jason Herndon; vote 5–0. (Yes: Ann Robinson; Robert "Bob" Moss; Jason Herndon; Hayden Lyons; Anthony Ramella. Absent: Kyle Cruey; Lance Wimmer.)
Rogich Rd and Dandee’s Inc. junkyard permits: The commission approved renewals for both junkyard permits after Mr. Dunford reported fees had been paid and recommended approval; County Attorney Chase Collins confirmed both could be approved in a single motion. Motion by Vice‑Chairman Jason Herndon, second by Member Anthony Ramella; vote 5–0.

The meeting agenda and the Dec. 12, 2024 minutes were also approved by unanimous vote.
