Summary
On June 1, 2023 the Soddy‑Daisy Board of Commissioners unanimously adopted four ordinances on second and final reading: two rezonings, an amendment to short‑term rental rules and a special‑use permit for beer sales at events.

The Soddy‑Daisy Board of Commissioners on June 1 adopted four ordinances on second and final reading, including two rezonings, an amendment to short‑term rental rules and a new special‑use permit regime for temporary beer sales at events.
The measures passed unanimously. Commissioner Shipley moved to adopt Ordinance No. 18, which rezones 11912 and 11916 Dayton Pike from R‑1 (single‑family residential) to C‑2 (local business); Vice‑Mayor Coleman seconded and the vote was unanimous. Commissioners also approved Ordinance No. 19, rezoning 9612 and 9616 Church Street from M‑1 (industrial) to R‑2 (urban residential), on a motion by Commissioner Keith and second by Commissioner Shipley.
On Ordinance No. 20, which amends Article V, Section 106 of the zoning code governing short‑term rentals, Vice‑Mayor Coleman moved and Commissioner Keith seconded adoption. Commissioner Shipley asked whether the number of required complaints had been changed “from two to three.” Assistant Recorder Dolberry responded that the number "had always been three," resolving the clarification during the meeting.
The board also held a public hearing and approved Ordinance No. 21 to provide special use permits for the sale of beer at events and to limit locations for those permits. City Attorney Elliott said the draft was based on Red Bank’s ordinance and that no opposition appeared at the hearing. Commissioner Shipley moved adoption; Vice‑Mayor Coleman seconded and the vote was unanimous.
Each ordinance was approved on second and final reading, formalizing the rezonings and code changes discussed at the meeting. The board did not record any votes in opposition.
