Pittman Center planning commission approves Price Cove Road subdivision; vice chairman recorded an abstention
Summary
The Pittman Center Planning Commission approved a subdivision on Price Cove Road during a brief Jan. 6, 2026 meeting. The motion was made by Chairman Jay Defoe and seconded by Mayor Jerry Huskey; the transcript records Vice Chairman Brennon Garrett as abstaining and also states the motion "carried unanimously," but specific vote counts were not recorded.
The Pittman Center Planning Commission approved a subdivision of property on Price Cove Road in Sevierville during a meeting called to order at 4:35 p.m. on Jan. 6, 2026. Chairman Jay Defoe moved to approve the plan, and Mayor Jerry Huskey seconded the motion.
According to the meeting transcript, Vice Chairman Brennon Garrett abstained from the vote; the same transcript also records that the motion "carried unanimously." The record does not include a roll-call tally or a reconciliation of that discrepancy, and specific vote counts were not provided in the minutes.
The agenda item identifies the parcel references as M:108 P:248, 248.01 & 207. Planner Joe Barrett of the East Tennessee Development District (ETDD) is listed among those present in the meeting materials; no additional public testimony or detailed debate about the subdivision is recorded in the minutes excerpt.
The commission first approved the minutes from the Dec. 2, 2025 meeting after Mayor Jerry Huskey moved to accept them and Vice Chairman Brennon Garrett seconded; the transcript records that motion as "carried unanimously." The minutes do not provide individual members' roll-call votes for that procedural approval either.
In other business, meeting materials or staff noted that a Statement of Interest must be filed by Jan. 31, 2026. The meeting adjourned at 4:43 p.m.
The published minutes include minor internal inconsistencies in dating and vote reporting: the document header lists the minutes as Jan. 6, 2026, while one line in the minutes refers to Jan. 6, 2025; the vote reporting for the subdivision records an abstention and also states the motion "carried unanimously." These inconsistencies are recorded here rather than reconciled because the transcript/motion text does not supply corrected tallies or an explanatory note.
