RESOLUTION NO. RS2003-1563

A resolution accepting the 2003 Plan Update for the Antioch/Priest Lake Community adopted by the Metropolitan Planning Commission on July 10, 2003.

Whereas, Section 18.02 of the Charter of the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County requires that zoning regulations be enacted by the Council "only on the basis of a comprehensive plan prepared by the Metropolitan Planning Commission;" and

Whereas, the Metropolitan Planning Commission, in order to fulfill its duty to develop and maintain the General Plan to provide the basis for zoning decisions, has divided the County into fourteen subareas and developed specific plans for each such subarea; and

Whereas, the Plan for Subarea 13 encompasses the community traditionally known as Antioch/Priest Lake; and

Whereas, the Metropolitan Planning directed its staff to work with Antioch/Priest Lake citizens to conduct public meetings and take such other steps deemed necessary to provide public input and review needed to update the Subarea 13 Plan; and

Whereas, thirteen community meetings were held between October 2002 and April 2003, at which community members worked extensively with Planning Department staff to develop their vision for the future of Antioch/Priest Lake; and

Whereas, the 2003 Plan Update for the Antioch/Priest Lake Community was unanimously approved by the Metropolitan Planning Commission, following a public hearing, on July 10, 2003; and

Whereas, it is fitting and proper that the Metropolitan Council recognize the efforts of Antioch/Priest Lake citizens in developing the 2003 Plan Update for the Antioch/Priest Lake Community.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE METROPOLITAN GOVERNMENT OF NASHVILLE AND DAVIDSON COUNTY:
