00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,980
Howdy, and welcome to episode 26 of Hello Fairview, your local podcast made right here
2
00:00:07,980 --> 00:00:11,680
in Fairview for people in Fairview, Tennessee and the surrounding areas.
3
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:17,100
This is a weekly show released every Wednesday featuring stories that aim to inform and inspire
4
00:00:17,100 --> 00:00:21,500
local radio stations and newspapers don't exist in small towns like ours.
5
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:26,200
So we'll use Hello Fairview to fill that void with the news related to Fairview.
6
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,900
This is a value for value podcast, which means you contribute what you can based on the value you receive.
7
00:00:31,140 --> 00:00:35,260
This concept was founded by the podfather himself, Adam Curry, and his co-host,
8
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,320
John C. Dvorak of the No Agenda Show over 18 years ago.
9
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,500
Currently, this is just a one man operation.
10
00:00:40,740 --> 00:00:46,280
So if you have any ideas, events, business opportunities or job openings, please don't hesitate to let me know.
11
00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:50,320
Use the contact form on the website and we'll work to get the updates out on the next episode.
12
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,380
You are a producer of the show.
13
00:00:52,380 --> 00:00:57,220
You are not the product because your time and attention are not being sold to advertisers for their value.
14
00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:58,820
Some shows will be longer.
15
00:00:58,980 --> 00:00:59,820
Others will be shorter.
16
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,780
But I'll do my best to always keep things relevant.
17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:04,360
Traffic time.
18
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,800
Well, it's definitely still construction busy.
19
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:12,720
You can still wait 5 to 20 minutes to make a left in the morning and afternoon.
20
00:01:13,780 --> 00:01:19,140
And right at right turn on Highway 100 at Old Cox or to the rec center.
21
00:01:19,140 --> 00:01:25,180
the sidewalk project has extended all the way down uh as you've seen the waddles those little
22
00:01:25,180 --> 00:01:30,200
uh straw things that are going all up and down so those are going in you can see them installing
23
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,040
all the drains so that's starting to go through there we'll have some updates and city news on
24
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:39,680
that because they've actually posted some stuff which is great um and they finally have used the
25
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:44,840
mini they built a mini bridge over the culvert uh so that's finally happening so now you can
26
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,360
actually see the road is widening before it just looked like it was kind of chaos, but they know
27
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,500
what they're doing. There's also been a lot of lane closures that have caused serious backups,
28
00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:57,660
and it's really luck of the draw if it's going to be a bad day or a good day to make a turn
29
00:01:57,660 --> 00:02:04,720
on Highway 100. So good luck out there. Red light update, we still got three, Old Cox Public and
30
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:11,920
Walmart. Still not getting any, the city center and entrance has those lights hung but not turned
31
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:16,200
on and Cumberland and 100 will eventually have some when that expansion occurs, which will be
32
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:22,080
a couple months from now. Uh, I think before we'll start seeing that, I'm not sure if how either one
33
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:28,140
of those two is going to hurt or help. Uh, I hope, uh, we'll have to see because the crossing guard
34
00:02:28,140 --> 00:02:33,620
manages that during school closures. Uh, and so we'll have to see how that goes from there. Uh,
35
00:02:33,620 --> 00:02:37,900
it was mentioned after the last show that, uh, there are two more red lights and 40, uh, you know,
36
00:02:37,900 --> 00:02:43,540
for a total of five red lights in the town because I-40 is within the city limits. And I never really
37
00:02:43,540 --> 00:02:49,580
thought about that because those properties are so surrounded by the county that I didn't think
38
00:02:49,580 --> 00:02:55,560
Fairview city limits ran up there based on the annexations around Old Cox and Elrod and everything
39
00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:01,460
around there at the edge. But I guess we do have five red lights. And I even put a little map there
40
00:03:01,460 --> 00:03:06,880
in the show notes there so you can see that. And then here we go. Here's that update from there.
41
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:12,200
information from TDOT. Crews have completed necessary extension of a box culvert just southwest
42
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,460
of the Cumberland Drive, as well as the grading to install the storm drains around the intersection
43
00:03:16,460 --> 00:03:22,160
to Fairview Boulevard. We saw that the other day at the Fairview Elementary. They're starting to
44
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:28,260
lay all the concrete drain pipes around there. So those are going. So you're going to see that.
45
00:03:28,260 --> 00:03:33,200
They closed the road a couple of times to unload those from the trucks. And so the contractor of
46
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:38,620
project continues to work around Cumberland Drive and the school resulting in single lane closures
47
00:03:38,620 --> 00:03:44,360
and flagging be aware of the contracted crews maybe in the area clearing debris from the winter storm
48
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:52,000
off the routes too so basically a double trouble on Highway 100 where we're going to have
49
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,700
closures because of the construction and then closures because of the tree pickup
50
00:03:56,700 --> 00:04:02,200
and then the TDOT lane closure report for the city of Fairview during this week basically
51
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:10,420
Um, the state road 96, there's some sewer and concrete work around my marker 10, some
52
00:04:10,420 --> 00:04:12,600
waterline improvements around that same place.
53
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:20,620
And then our, uh, Williamson County state road, 100 sidewalk repair 3 16 to 3 29 AM to
54
00:04:20,620 --> 00:04:21,240
3 PM.
55
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,660
There'll be flagging operations.
56
00:04:22,660 --> 00:04:27,240
I've seen them do that a little bit more and that's at landmark three to 5.5, which
57
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,300
is basically, uh, from buoy all the way down to the rec center.
58
00:04:31,300 --> 00:04:38,280
and then you can see there's some i-40 debris cleanup 840 they're doing some resurfacing
59
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:44,520
and so intermittent closures since the way that road has jumps down it we'll see how that goes
60
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:49,820
and then there's a couple others related to davidson county and everything else that really
61
00:04:49,820 --> 00:04:53,400
those don't apply to us i'll remove them out of there so it's just short and sweet
62
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:59,040
and city center you know they're digging over there again which appears to be utility road
63
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:04,420
and I made a comment last time that you could see through Bowie Park but what I really intended I
64
00:05:04,420 --> 00:05:10,020
guess is that you could see around it and through it because those used to all be trees to the right
65
00:05:10,020 --> 00:05:17,620
of the park and now those trees are all gone and it is just dirt and fill so you can definitely see
66
00:05:17,620 --> 00:05:23,040
around it through it however you want to look at it all right well we're growing city news well
67
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:28,000
things are definitely rolling along pretty normal the one is still mentioned it this is the last time
68
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:34,420
is that the three-way stop, the stop sign was at Horn Tavern and Cleveland Lane. So this will take
69
00:05:34,420 --> 00:05:37,620
people a while to get through there. So make sure you're extra careful around the intersection
70
00:05:37,620 --> 00:05:42,140
because there could still be people blowing through it. And the text notice. Basically,
71
00:05:42,460 --> 00:05:48,000
the city posted that there have been aware of a survey that was sent out to citizens regarding the
72
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:53,500
Fairviews area feature. Please note that this was not distributed by the city. And basically,
73
00:05:53,500 --> 00:06:01,740
it said hi person uh i am amy with tennessee surveys we've opened up a short poll regarding
74
00:06:01,740 --> 00:06:09,140
emergency care and fairview make sure your voice is heard well if you clicked on that um you would
75
00:06:09,140 --> 00:06:14,400
have seen that this was something that was sent out by tristar because the question is related to
76
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,560
if you've ever been to a tristar er facility so it wasn't if you had been to an ascension
77
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,040
or if you needed ER service just generically.
78
00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:27,480
There were a couple of questions that were generic and related to Fairview,
79
00:06:27,700 --> 00:06:31,100
but then the real questions that they care about were still in there too.
80
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,040
City debris cleanup has started on March 16th,
81
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,680
and so make sure you'll see those things traveling around.
82
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,740
And then if you're in the county, I've still not found any decisive news
83
00:06:43,740 --> 00:06:46,440
of when they're going to do anything for county people.
84
00:06:47,060 --> 00:06:49,400
State of emergency is still going on.
85
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:56,080
till March 22nd. And so I guess they're going to keep the state of emergency until all the debris
86
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:01,560
has been cleaned up, buoy parks opened, and they have gotten their applications for all the federal
87
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:08,240
money as I guess what it has to be. Easter egg hunt, that's still March 28th at 10 AM. And it's
88
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:15,220
moved to the Lions Club ballpark on at 214 Highway 96. So make sure you get there. And like we talked
89
00:07:15,220 --> 00:07:21,620
about Ascension Health ER, and this is the double hospital trouble. Ascension Health ER and TriStar
90
00:07:21,620 --> 00:07:28,040
Fairview ER were both announced. And I'm trying to look on the status of each one. And there's not
91
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,960
anything posted on the state of Tennessee yet for other applications. TriStar was at the farmer's
92
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:40,260
market this weekend, trying to, you know, get some people to sign things and, you know, just be out
93
00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:46,580
there to be the favorite. And so I put the two addresses in there. So Ascension is at 1866
94
00:07:46,580 --> 00:07:54,520
Fairview Boulevard. And they spent $700,000 on that piece of property on 122921. And the TriStar
95
00:07:54,520 --> 00:08:02,340
property is at 2273 Fairview Boulevard. And they spent $1.5 million on that piece of property on
96
00:08:02,340 --> 00:08:08,900
81525. And the same person who bought and is in charge, I guess, of buying the real estate there
97
00:08:08,900 --> 00:08:19,060
Ken Carger has also bought other properties up and down Fairview Boulevard. So the 2273 being the
98
00:08:19,060 --> 00:08:26,620
main one, and then the 2382 being just down from the road from it, and then a 2391 where they spent
99
00:08:26,620 --> 00:08:33,260
a million dollars back in 2023. So there's probably other TriStar related things coming
100
00:08:33,260 --> 00:08:35,800
if that person is still working from there.
101
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:45,180
One thing that came out was the Fairview Community and Community Education FCE scholarship is the thing.
102
00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:46,220
I didn't know that.
103
00:08:46,300 --> 00:08:48,020
That's at the high school and seniors.
104
00:08:48,220 --> 00:08:49,220
It's a Schoology page.
105
00:08:49,260 --> 00:08:54,260
This year it's $2,000 and it has a flyer for the scholarship information.
106
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,700
And that's due this week on March 20th.
107
00:08:56,700 --> 00:09:00,480
So if you've got a kid in there and you haven't heard of this $2,000 scholarship,
108
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:02,720
every little bit helps when you're going over there.
109
00:09:03,260 --> 00:09:12,100
to college. Last week, also, the fire crews completed their annual re-inspection and training
110
00:09:12,100 --> 00:09:20,220
on vehicle extraction, thanks to the MJ Sun Wrecker LLC, which continues to provide support
111
00:09:20,220 --> 00:09:25,960
and the needs to have that, to have those cars. So thank you for MJ and Sun for doing that.
112
00:09:27,180 --> 00:09:32,060
Scam alert. This is another thing posted by the city. We reported scammers that are advertising
113
00:09:32,060 --> 00:09:38,300
that they are hosting a craft fair on April 11th and 12th at Bowie. The city has not approved any
114
00:09:38,300 --> 00:09:43,100
business organization or individual to have an event at Bowie on these days. And I mean, I guess
115
00:09:43,100 --> 00:09:47,420
it may still be closed by then too. So pay attention to that. So here's a few reminders
116
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:51,640
to help protect you from scammers. Never send money and gift cards to people over the phone
117
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:56,860
that you do not know or on the internet. Never reveal personal information like your banking
118
00:09:56,860 --> 00:10:01,920
information or social security number over the phone or the internet. Always ask questions.
119
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,120
and details from the caller.
120
00:10:03,420 --> 00:10:06,200
And just don't be afraid to just hang up if it sounds like that.
121
00:10:06,680 --> 00:10:12,160
Last but not least, Fairview has a story that was written by the people and who built it.
122
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:17,420
So on April 2nd, along with citizen Bert Hester, this is from Dom DeBuffalini, there will be
123
00:10:17,420 --> 00:10:21,120
an introduction of a resolution at the Board of Commissioners meeting to encourage new
124
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,620
developments to honor Fairview's past by naming at least one street after a resident
125
00:10:25,620 --> 00:10:26,880
who made a lasting impact.
126
00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:31,300
As our city continues to grow, it is a responsibility that we make the growth respect
127
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:37,080
respect and reflect who we are and who we are not and where we're going. This initiative about
128
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:43,600
preserving our history, honoring those members who served us and gave back, making sure the future
129
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:49,940
generations recognize the names that shaped Fairview. So Bert and Don are asking for your
130
00:10:49,940 --> 00:10:55,180
input. There's a link to the form in the show notes. And let's continue to work together to
131
00:10:55,180 --> 00:10:56,080
make Fairview's future.
132
00:10:56,560 --> 00:10:57,580
Never forget its past.
133
00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:58,560
Houses.
134
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,000
Well, there is 236 for sale from 230 last week.
135
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:03,980
So we got six new ones.
136
00:11:03,980 --> 00:11:10,020
We still got the $3.9 million world record holder and the $230,000 out there.
137
00:11:10,660 --> 00:11:26,828
Another thing is is this period there was 12 homes sold with the most expensive being And the minimum one piece of property was sold this period February 23rd through 27th was
138
00:11:26,828 --> 00:11:31,068
So the average home sold out of those 12 was $619,000.
139
00:11:31,628 --> 00:11:39,688
Well, I went back and dug through all the house selling records basically for the past, call it 13 months, 14 months,
140
00:11:40,108 --> 00:11:44,828
from February 23rd through 27th to December 30th from there.
141
00:11:44,828 --> 00:11:47,948
and we have had 544 homes sold.
142
00:11:48,488 --> 00:11:51,508
The most expensive was $7.83 million.
143
00:11:52,208 --> 00:11:54,168
And the cheapest thing in that period of time
144
00:11:54,168 --> 00:11:56,988
was a little chunk of land for 13,100.
145
00:11:57,628 --> 00:12:00,248
And that means our average that we had
146
00:12:00,248 --> 00:12:03,508
like a couple of weeks ago of 600,000 isn't that far off
147
00:12:03,508 --> 00:12:06,928
because it's 687,000 is our average.
148
00:12:07,068 --> 00:12:08,928
So I don't think affordable housing
149
00:12:08,928 --> 00:12:10,988
is something that's possible
150
00:12:10,988 --> 00:12:13,428
with the way everything else is around here
151
00:12:13,428 --> 00:12:19,148
in Williamson County, not just Fairview. So I'll post that chart in a separate post because I think
152
00:12:19,148 --> 00:12:23,728
it's interesting. Town meeting updates. Well, there was no board of zoning appeals. There was
153
00:12:23,728 --> 00:12:30,048
a meeting with the local parks and recreation fund grant at 6 p.m. on March 17th. And this was
154
00:12:30,048 --> 00:12:35,868
to talk about if awarded this. And this is Kim Lee Horn, who's been, I guess, preparing this.
155
00:12:36,328 --> 00:12:39,808
And so I have all the slides in here. I'm not going to read every single thing. Otherwise,
156
00:12:39,808 --> 00:12:46,788
this would take forever but kimberly kimley horn and 906 studio has been working with the city
157
00:12:46,788 --> 00:12:55,148
since august of 2024 to start making the planning and the grant for this um and so this was part of
158
00:12:55,148 --> 00:13:01,448
the master plan the park's master plan in 2023 i have a link to that in the show notes and basically
159
00:13:01,448 --> 00:13:09,028
it's a 50 50 match grant uh and the historic park is across from uh the rec center if you look you
160
00:13:09,028 --> 00:13:16,268
look to that and that there's 10,009 residents living here. And there were some good demographics,
161
00:13:16,268 --> 00:13:21,928
which we won't get into all that. But the parks master plan has this. It's 175 pages.
162
00:13:22,248 --> 00:13:27,228
It was made in 2023. So in 2028, it'll probably get updated. And this is basically the goals
163
00:13:27,228 --> 00:13:33,988
of what we wanted in our park system in Fairview, Tennessee. So we got all that going.
164
00:13:33,988 --> 00:13:41,768
they talked about the some of the cost associated with that and the sustainability and kind of like
165
00:13:41,768 --> 00:13:48,328
the vicinity and the grading of the place so they could have this amphitheater and 36 parking spaces
166
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:54,428
24 bays for a farmer's market and kind of a walking path that's ADA compliant so lots of
167
00:13:54,428 --> 00:14:02,588
cool things kind of in there and you know this is a 50 percent of the fund will be funded by that
168
00:14:02,588 --> 00:14:08,228
25% of the fund of this project will be funded by the land, which it appraised for over $700,000.
169
00:14:08,728 --> 00:14:13,788
So that's what they need. And then 25% will be matched by city funds. So we will pay 25%
170
00:14:13,788 --> 00:14:23,888
of this value. And so this whole thing is $2.6 million and 2.25 will go into there. And there's
171
00:14:23,888 --> 00:14:28,348
a couple of different things for stormwater improvements, the ADA compliant and the stage
172
00:14:28,348 --> 00:14:35,268
and farmer's market. Uh, so it's mostly it's even between landscaping and stormwater improvements,
173
00:14:35,268 --> 00:14:42,308
and then actually building the stage, the farmer's market and, uh, the restaurant building or the
174
00:14:42,308 --> 00:14:47,588
restroom building and the land values on $760,000. Basically, this is like a three-year timeline.
175
00:14:47,748 --> 00:14:51,628
They expect it to be more. They had some new renderings in here. So we've got those in the
176
00:14:51,628 --> 00:14:56,168
show notes. So you can see those, um, it gives you a little bit of the scale of what it's going
177
00:14:56,168 --> 00:15:02,168
to be like, uh, and talked about how, you know, there is parking that is available from a city
178
00:15:02,168 --> 00:15:06,268
owned property down deer Ridge, but that would be a separate discussion if they can use that
179
00:15:06,268 --> 00:15:11,148
T deck money for that. So we'll have to see how that goes. They think it's a very high success
180
00:15:11,148 --> 00:15:15,808
rate as long as you fill the things in correctly on getting this grant. And so I think that part's
181
00:15:15,808 --> 00:15:22,808
good. Um, and, uh, this has been going on for a while and, uh, they wrapped up with some thank
182
00:15:22,808 --> 00:15:29,028
use and looking forward to get this going. So planning commission, uh, basically we gained
183
00:15:29,028 --> 00:15:35,868
around 57 houses, but there were some people that didn't show up. So we had a planning commission
184
00:15:35,868 --> 00:15:45,168
meeting on three 1726. Uh, we were missing, uh, uh, Ms. Schilling, Mr. Dawson and Mr. Ritt,
185
00:15:45,228 --> 00:15:49,448
I think were the three. Uh, sometimes it's not very clear. They don't mic that stuff very well.
186
00:15:49,448 --> 00:15:51,228
And then you can't really see some of the stuff.
187
00:15:51,868 --> 00:15:53,448
Agenda pass 7-0.
188
00:15:53,588 --> 00:15:54,748
So there's only seven people there.
189
00:15:55,668 --> 00:15:58,668
PC resolution 826, pass 7-0.
190
00:15:58,988 --> 00:16:00,068
This is 50 homes.
191
00:16:00,408 --> 00:16:01,888
This is North American Realty.
192
00:16:02,388 --> 00:16:08,568
This is 2.7 acres plus 29.17, 31.95 acres total.
193
00:16:08,868 --> 00:16:11,628
This did not show up properly on the agenda.
194
00:16:11,628 --> 00:16:21,628
It was not updated in time because it was only the 29.7 acre property listed to be on there.
195
00:16:21,708 --> 00:16:25,568
This was already set to be residential medium in the 2040 plan.
196
00:16:26,068 --> 00:16:33,408
Mr. Nathan came out there and basically this is just a Orange Shire expansion with 20,000 square foot locks, lots on it.
197
00:16:34,188 --> 00:16:37,608
There was a question about the agenda and where it came from.
198
00:16:37,608 --> 00:16:43,728
um and there were but there was also a mention of the zone to and from and even an updated one
199
00:16:43,728 --> 00:16:48,848
where they kept the template to show there um they're thinking no more than 40 to 50 homes but
200
00:16:48,848 --> 00:16:53,468
then when he was talking about it he said 50 a couple times when he was mentioning how many plots
201
00:16:53,468 --> 00:17:00,008
there are so it looks like it's more like 50 and not 40 uh mr mcdonald uh with the highway he asked
202
00:17:00,008 --> 00:17:06,748
about the traffic and the zoning and all that and since there's um since there is only one entrance
203
00:17:06,748 --> 00:17:10,568
an exit and there's more than 30, there will have to be sprinklers in these house.
204
00:17:11,248 --> 00:17:16,808
And the way this thing will work is it has its next reading on March 19th and April 2nd
205
00:17:16,808 --> 00:17:17,968
will be its final reading.
206
00:17:18,128 --> 00:17:18,988
So it won't be too long.
207
00:17:19,488 --> 00:17:25,068
This property is converted from RS20 to CD3 and that would be May 2nd when to be the final
208
00:17:25,068 --> 00:17:29,208
reading and would be converted for them, which still leaves them that 20,000 square foot.
209
00:17:29,208 --> 00:17:34,188
There wasn't any traffic studies completed because they're under the limit now.
210
00:17:34,188 --> 00:17:39,228
now. And they also talked about kind of the Sunday traffic of how this thing will flow coming in and
211
00:17:39,228 --> 00:17:44,148
out of there. There was also a conversation about Dixon water. And if they may have to install a
212
00:17:44,148 --> 00:17:49,908
step system, they're not far enough along, I guess, to know that and what they've been working with,
213
00:17:49,908 --> 00:17:55,908
because there are lots of limits from Dixon water. Mr. McDonald said, even if we didn't pass this
214
00:17:55,908 --> 00:18:01,068
tonight, it's still going to become CD three on the map. And they said, yes, unless the map was
215
00:18:01,068 --> 00:18:08,608
submitted. CD3 equals four ohms per acre with a 70 to maximum 150 foot wide lot and single family
216
00:18:08,608 --> 00:18:15,088
homes. The general counsel made sure and made a note that says you can't talk about the future,
217
00:18:15,208 --> 00:18:19,708
you're exceeding your power and discretion, which is impossible. You need to look at what's in front
218
00:18:19,708 --> 00:18:26,728
of you. This is R20 PUD, general counsel. We have to deal with what's in front of us. And if there's
219
00:18:26,728 --> 00:18:30,888
a sufficiency, that's fine, but we have to vote what's on front of us and not what could be in
220
00:18:30,888 --> 00:18:38,268
the future. And then, uh, that was all resorting there. So that passed seven zero, uh, PC resolution
221
00:18:38,268 --> 00:18:47,488
nine 26, it passed seven zero. Uh, this is 4.81 acres and unknown density plans. The 2040 plan
222
00:18:47,488 --> 00:18:52,708
shows that it's there. No representatives, no questions. There we go. Then the one that took
223
00:18:52,708 --> 00:19:00,508
forever that night, uh, is 1026. And that is past six to one with Mr. King and no, um,
224
00:19:00,888 --> 00:19:07,568
four to five homes is what's planning to go here. This is a 24-year plan shows that it's there,
225
00:19:07,668 --> 00:19:13,148
but RS-15 is not in alignment. May 7th is when the final reading of that development code would
226
00:19:13,148 --> 00:19:18,788
come in there. No representative came there. And so basically they were sitting there going back
227
00:19:18,788 --> 00:19:24,808
and forth on questions, the driveway access, the alignment to there and Mayor Anderson coming
228
00:19:24,808 --> 00:19:31,388
through there uh of going of what's what's more in there and so we didn't have any more details of
229
00:19:31,388 --> 00:19:36,608
what they wanted so it looked like it could only be four to five houses so this one kind of just
230
00:19:36,608 --> 00:19:41,168
got discussed back and forth and this is on horn taver road and this is two more acres and this is
231
00:19:41,168 --> 00:19:47,748
uh there's one right beside it again um that's another two acres on horn taver road basically
232
00:19:47,748 --> 00:19:52,968
gluing this together where they're gonna have one house and build four to five more houses based on
233
00:19:52,968 --> 00:20:00,508
that. And this one also passed six to one with Mr. King as a no. And, um, then 1226 pretty much
234
00:20:00,508 --> 00:20:07,408
took about 30 minutes on its own. And this actually got passed as a deferral. Um, the
235
00:20:07,408 --> 00:20:14,348
representative that came there, um, got there, but basically this is a 7,900 square foot commercial,
236
00:20:14,348 --> 00:20:19,628
uh, tenant with three tenant spaces on Glen Haven drive called the Jingo retail center.
237
00:20:19,628 --> 00:20:21,028
There's 25 parking spots.
238
00:20:21,188 --> 00:20:26,908
They wanted a tree bank exception and an underground water detention request are also part of this.
239
00:20:27,468 --> 00:20:31,128
Mr. Chase was the person that came there, came to the city staff on Haven Drive,
240
00:20:31,188 --> 00:20:34,468
talking about widening it 12 feet and making a six-foot curb.
241
00:20:35,228 --> 00:20:39,488
There's also stuff at the intersection of Highway 100, and this curb is on the south side.
242
00:20:40,768 --> 00:20:45,068
There's some rolled curb that would be done, and they're trying to just keep the thing simple
243
00:20:45,068 --> 00:20:47,908
and use the same existing TDOT drainage
244
00:20:47,908 --> 00:20:51,488
because the current drainage and retention pond
245
00:20:51,488 --> 00:20:54,068
versus detention pond has already been there.
246
00:20:54,488 --> 00:20:57,188
But Mr. Pape looked at this
247
00:20:57,188 --> 00:20:59,028
and found that there were some variances there
248
00:20:59,028 --> 00:21:02,628
that a 20 foot landscaping strip was required
249
00:21:02,628 --> 00:21:05,328
and that there was 20% slopes on the property.
250
00:21:05,328 --> 00:21:09,048
And there was a question of if you can even build on it
251
00:21:09,048 --> 00:21:11,508
with the way the new development code is written.
252
00:21:12,168 --> 00:21:14,788
And so we'll have to see how that kind of goes.
253
00:21:14,788 --> 00:21:16,048
There's a lot of large silence.
254
00:21:16,228 --> 00:21:17,388
And then this was a lot of time.
255
00:21:17,488 --> 00:21:21,948
There's probably five plus minutes of Mr. Greer and the engineering team looking through stuff.
256
00:21:22,428 --> 00:21:31,128
Mr. McDonald would like to hear a, you know, about the buffer and the slopes from the code staff.
257
00:21:31,408 --> 00:21:35,548
The city staff talked about how Mr. Pape is right, but this is a case by case basis.
258
00:21:35,548 --> 00:21:37,128
And the city staff would work on this.
259
00:21:38,808 --> 00:21:41,768
And the square footage based on the steep space.
260
00:21:41,768 --> 00:21:46,168
And then, you know, there was 5,000 square foot, which is right at the limit with city staff.
261
00:21:46,528 --> 00:21:49,168
They went back and forth at isolated slopes.
262
00:21:50,048 --> 00:21:54,228
And Mr. Pape just commented up on 13102.2.
263
00:21:54,848 --> 00:21:58,008
And this is about stormwater versus the infrastructure building.
264
00:21:58,148 --> 00:21:59,708
So either one of those could do it.
265
00:21:59,808 --> 00:22:03,588
But then this is either still unbuildable or would require a variance.
266
00:22:04,808 --> 00:22:08,468
We talked about, Mr. McDonald said we should just come back with a variance.
267
00:22:08,468 --> 00:22:11,328
General counsel says the request is what it is.
268
00:22:11,328 --> 00:22:17,868
and it's a fair request as it is um is there any way it could be designed um and our idea was to
269
00:22:17,868 --> 00:22:21,808
change a couple things there city staff went and looked at the codes a long time back and forth
270
00:22:21,808 --> 00:22:26,508
said that it looked like it had the right buffer but the opaque buffer which could be provided by
271
00:22:26,508 --> 00:22:32,228
fence wasn't crystal clear um and this is where general counsel says you might get a denial tonight
272
00:22:32,228 --> 00:22:46,956
if you think your application you might want to get a deferral um and he actually helping them And Mr Chase went to go talk to the developer Anderson said you know this zoning code gives the staff the opportunity to variances or not
273
00:22:46,956 --> 00:22:53,716
for it to be accepted. And that this is what the staff knows of the knowledge of the planning.
274
00:22:54,136 --> 00:22:58,596
And then they went back and four general counsels came back again saying that this notes is five
275
00:22:58,596 --> 00:23:03,696
minute timetable and deferred. We're spending so much time on this. We should just vote or deferral.
276
00:23:03,696 --> 00:23:10,796
and so they went back and finally the mr chasen team said that they were okay for their uh for
277
00:23:10,796 --> 00:23:16,816
these variances and they're going for their so it finally came back and got deferred there's a whole
278
00:23:16,816 --> 00:23:19,936
bunch more there but we'll just go ahead and skip it we got a picture of it it looks like a good
279
00:23:19,936 --> 00:23:25,376
looking building kind of looks like the one where papa john's and all that's in right now so this is
280
00:23:25,376 --> 00:23:31,176
uh we'll see how this goes so in next month they'll have those variances updated and then we'll have
281
00:23:31,176 --> 00:23:36,616
I guess another debate on this with the board of commissioners, um, yeah, or with the planning
282
00:23:36,616 --> 00:23:42,116
commission first. Uh, and then every other than that, there was just, um, everybody said, thank
283
00:23:42,116 --> 00:23:48,796
yous, uh, Mr. Pape, everybody. And thank you for the staff to working on this. And we're looking
284
00:23:48,796 --> 00:23:54,076
forward to the new zoning getting done. So lots of good stuff there. And then they adjourned no
285
00:23:54,076 --> 00:24:00,216
board of commissioners meeting, um, March 17th was also the, that parks and landscape board.
286
00:24:00,216 --> 00:24:06,596
So we had that that was done next town meetings, planning commissions on April 14th, board of commissioners is on March 19th.
287
00:24:06,596 --> 00:24:15,436
So just later this week and on that board of commissioners meeting, basically, they're going to talk about city events, some veteran park estimates for some of the things that the mega American Legion is doing.
288
00:24:15,436 --> 00:24:28,576
So that'll be good to see. Resolution 6225 is basically to formally accept subdivision improvements associated with Adams Preserve, basically wrapping up that that subdivision.
289
00:24:28,576 --> 00:24:37,476
uh, 2026.02 is, um, adopted by the Fairview zoning map and adopting the new development
290
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:41,936
codes. This is the board of commissioners voting on the, uh, board development code and the new
291
00:24:41,936 --> 00:24:52,016
zoning map ordinance. 2026.01 is a 62.53 acre located on Horn Taver road, consisting of,
292
00:24:52,016 --> 00:24:58,416
um, Williamson County tax map there. And this is going from RS 40 to RS 15. So stuffing some
293
00:24:58,416 --> 00:25:03,836
houses in there for sure. Uh, so that's really going to be, I mean, when I look at Horn Tower
294
00:25:03,836 --> 00:25:09,376
road and how crazy it is to turn in there and that kind of blind curve, and I think about 62 acres
295
00:25:09,376 --> 00:25:14,996
and RS 15, that could mean a hundred plus homes. Uh, I don't know how they're going to handle that
296
00:25:14,996 --> 00:25:22,856
traffic, uh, but we'll see. Uh, and then there was a public hearing on 20, 26, Oh three, which is a
297
00:25:22,856 --> 00:25:29,096
5.3 acre thing on Northwest highway, uh, going from RS 40 to R 20. And I think this is the one
298
00:25:29,096 --> 00:25:32,816
that was one of the donut holes that was getting filled up of getting annexed and now getting
299
00:25:32,816 --> 00:25:39,596
rezoned. Um, new business 1126 board of commissioners that to site development agree
300
00:25:39,596 --> 00:25:48,156
agreement of the fair view self storage place. And some of that resolution 1226 is a 1 million
301
00:25:48,156 --> 00:25:51,396
and $10,000 allocation.
302
00:25:53,396 --> 00:25:57,056
Therefore, the do, do, do, where was this one?
303
00:25:57,396 --> 00:26:00,856
Oh, it's just, it's just doing the capital outlay for 2026.
304
00:26:01,076 --> 00:26:01,236
Okay.
305
00:26:01,376 --> 00:26:01,636
All right.
306
00:26:02,636 --> 00:26:08,036
1326 is the William County to rescind resolution 22620.
307
00:26:08,216 --> 00:26:11,816
And we'll hear to when Williamson County hit a local growth plan.
308
00:26:11,816 --> 00:26:14,856
So basically agreeing to their growth plan plus fair views plan,
309
00:26:14,936 --> 00:26:17,996
getting squished together and resolution 1526.
310
00:26:18,156 --> 00:26:25,376
is authorizing the mayor to execute task orders for emergency debris removal and emergency debris
311
00:26:25,376 --> 00:26:30,696
monitoring services for the city of Fairview, Tennessee for the city manager. So basically,
312
00:26:30,696 --> 00:26:35,576
this is just a formal change of power for some of that kind of stuff. Board of Commissioners,
313
00:26:35,656 --> 00:26:41,296
next town hall is April 30th. Parks and Landscape, next one is April 6th. And then around town coffee
314
00:26:41,296 --> 00:26:49,716
is in April also. So we'll get to that. State of Tennessee. Well, you know, this was kind of
315
00:26:49,716 --> 00:26:54,016
an interesting news week when it came to the state of Tennessee. But when Tennessee lawmakers
316
00:26:54,016 --> 00:26:58,976
legalized sports betting in 2019, they hoped that it would create a new revenue source. But nearly
317
00:26:58,976 --> 00:27:06,596
seven years later, the Tennessee sports gambling tax revenue exceeds $100 million. The state lottery
318
00:27:06,596 --> 00:27:12,816
funded scholarship program faces an $80 million deficit. So basically gambling is bringing in more
319
00:27:12,816 --> 00:27:18,016
money for some of this stuff than lottery. And people are not playing the lottery as much if
320
00:27:18,016 --> 00:27:24,256
they have an $80 million budget surplus deficit. And then the Tennessee Department of Health is
321
00:27:24,256 --> 00:27:30,396
providing statewide information following more than 30 fatal overdoses since October of 2025
322
00:27:30,396 --> 00:27:36,556
associated with a newly identified opioid known as cyclomorphine.
323
00:27:37,076 --> 00:27:39,276
So definitely stay away from that stuff.
324
00:27:39,396 --> 00:27:43,356
The first time I've heard of that, I guess, is just a morphine derivative that's been something.
325
00:27:44,216 --> 00:27:50,116
Number three, we got Tennessee is poised to be the first state to require proof of immigration status as a requirement
326
00:27:50,116 --> 00:27:58,116
as an overturn to challenging the U.S. Supreme Court's 1982 decision of Player versus Doe,
327
00:27:58,116 --> 00:28:02,556
which barred schools from discriminating children based on immigration status.
328
00:28:03,136 --> 00:28:07,316
But House Republicans on March 17th, March 16th, passed House Bill 793,
329
00:28:07,776 --> 00:28:11,876
directing public schools to require students to provide proof of immigration status at enrollment.
330
00:28:12,516 --> 00:28:17,896
Students will be, schools will be required to report that number of students back up to their, to proof of their.
331
00:28:18,316 --> 00:28:23,796
NES was definitely in the news still as a couple more of these news channels dig in deeper
332
00:28:23,796 --> 00:28:27,616
to find out some of the problems that they had during the storm.
333
00:28:27,616 --> 00:28:33,016
and that they actually had less linemen with more customers than Middle Tennessee Electric.
334
00:28:33,296 --> 00:28:35,076
They didn't even have enough poles.
335
00:28:35,196 --> 00:28:37,016
They had to buy like 800 poles.
336
00:28:37,496 --> 00:28:42,056
They had delays in getting contractors and how they handled the whole customer triage
337
00:28:42,056 --> 00:28:45,436
of the outages, why people were out for power for almost two weeks there.
338
00:28:46,136 --> 00:28:46,676
The bills.
339
00:28:47,436 --> 00:28:50,816
Well, you know, they're kind of slowing down again, but there's only one thing on the agenda
340
00:28:50,816 --> 00:28:52,536
for this week and next week.
341
00:28:52,536 --> 00:29:01,096
but one of the things was SB 242, Homes Not Hedge Funds, was something that kind of came up there,
342
00:29:01,176 --> 00:29:08,076
the landlord bill, and this is to try to prevent homes from there. And basically what this is,
343
00:29:08,076 --> 00:29:14,276
is it's like legal entities including affiliates, meaning a company can't just create 10 LLCs
344
00:29:14,276 --> 00:29:21,056
and buy 99 homes in each one. So this is trying to get some of the business of owning some homes,
345
00:29:21,056 --> 00:29:25,276
and obviously the rental market in the state of Tennessee down.
346
00:29:26,076 --> 00:29:28,816
So this vote was recorded in there.
347
00:29:29,016 --> 00:29:31,636
So I've got the link in there for that.
348
00:29:32,016 --> 00:29:37,656
And so today there is, or the 19th, there is a fiscal review,
349
00:29:37,776 --> 00:29:39,996
which basically just has a list of a bunch of companies
350
00:29:39,996 --> 00:29:43,476
and them talking about all the things they're doing for health
351
00:29:43,476 --> 00:29:46,696
and for children and education and everything else in between there.
352
00:29:47,536 --> 00:29:50,116
So there's some budget stuff that will definitely happen from there.
353
00:29:50,116 --> 00:29:55,856
and next week on 323 there is the state building commission there's no agenda posted yet but i'm
354
00:29:55,856 --> 00:30:00,596
sure it's like the ones that we've covered in the past which is a percentage of money that's
355
00:30:00,596 --> 00:30:04,676
allocated to all these projects around the state from colleges to buildings to the va
356
00:30:04,676 --> 00:30:07,976
of how much money it's going to take and then if they have a change order
357
00:30:07,976 --> 00:30:14,376
how's the hill well it's bad it's definitely well after a tornado watch earlier this week
358
00:30:14,376 --> 00:30:15,836
and some crazy winds and storms.
359
00:30:16,976 --> 00:30:20,416
We went from 75 to 31 in just a couple of hours
360
00:30:20,416 --> 00:30:22,436
when we went to sleep and woke up the next day.
361
00:30:22,956 --> 00:30:24,656
But maybe we're done with the cold, hopefully.
362
00:30:24,836 --> 00:30:27,596
I don't know what that groundhog said again, but we'll see.
363
00:30:27,716 --> 00:30:29,956
But the hill is definitely passable, back to normal.
364
00:30:30,476 --> 00:30:33,416
Most of the debris is removed from that road, so it's good.
365
00:30:34,256 --> 00:30:38,236
This week, the weather guessers are predicting highs from 59 to 89
366
00:30:38,236 --> 00:30:43,496
and lows from 40 to 60 with no rain forecasted beyond 10% for the week.
367
00:30:43,496 --> 00:30:45,316
So it looks like it's going to be a beautiful weekend too.
368
00:30:46,496 --> 00:30:48,276
New businesses, nothing new is spotted.
369
00:30:48,516 --> 00:30:52,896
Jingo Java has moved over to Uncle Lenny's and Vigilance Martial Arts has moved to Publix.
370
00:30:53,376 --> 00:30:55,216
Ace Hardware is getting a lot closer.
371
00:30:55,476 --> 00:30:57,436
Other than that, I haven't really spotted anything else new.
372
00:30:57,816 --> 00:30:59,456
There are a couple of properties still for sale.
373
00:30:59,456 --> 00:31:04,136
Two commercial properties, one on Dragstrip Road and Loblolly Pine Boulevard.
374
00:31:04,656 --> 00:31:13,096
And then for lease, there's another 7610 Dragstrip Road and 1701 and 2332 Fairby Boulevard are for lease.
375
00:31:13,496 --> 00:31:18,376
along with the building behind Dunkin' Donuts that looks like a house where Dos Margaritas is.
376
00:31:19,716 --> 00:31:20,976
So both of those are there.
377
00:31:21,376 --> 00:31:27,816
Looks like there is going to be a new golf game, golf club behind Food Saver at the Old Liberty Church there up on the hill.
378
00:31:28,316 --> 00:31:29,456
And they've posted that.
379
00:31:29,536 --> 00:31:30,896
That's the 1890 Golf Club.
380
00:31:30,996 --> 00:31:32,696
We'll have to see how that goes as they get closer.
381
00:31:32,816 --> 00:31:36,016
You can see them renovating it, and they've got the dumpster up there, so that's exciting.
382
00:31:36,796 --> 00:31:37,316
Farmer's Market.
383
00:31:37,316 --> 00:31:42,996
Make sure you head to the Farmer's Market every weekend, Saturday morning, 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Messick Chiropractic.
384
00:31:42,996 --> 00:31:46,516
and Fairview Fresh Deli Donuts located across the road from Publix.
385
00:31:47,056 --> 00:31:51,996
There's so many good places and great breads and treats and beef and local beef and pork,
386
00:31:52,116 --> 00:31:57,136
local fruits and vegetables, along with hot sausage, fishing lures, and other gifts all time of the year.
387
00:31:58,016 --> 00:32:01,736
Brick and mortar highlight, we're going to talk about Old Dos Margaritas.
388
00:32:02,276 --> 00:32:05,856
This has been one of the staples since 2011 for Mexican food in the town.
389
00:32:06,376 --> 00:32:09,256
It used to be the spot before Cano's, but they're still rocking it.
390
00:32:09,756 --> 00:32:12,796
They are fast and the prices are great, so it's definitely cheaper.
391
00:32:12,996 --> 00:32:17,896
Uh, so it's a great option if you need something fast and good, and you actually want to sit down,

399
00:32:47,876 --> 00:32:54,156
went from 44 to 44 so the same number of jobs are open from last week to this week and that's
400
00:32:54,156 --> 00:33:00,236
basically every store and place that you see up and down the strip has somebody but there's also
401
00:33:00,236 --> 00:33:05,716
a maintenance crew position in the city of and for the buoy park and a police officer position open
402
00:33:05,716 --> 00:33:10,376
and pretty much every other store and then there's other places that you might not see
403
00:33:10,376 --> 00:33:19,636
looks like unity chiropractic um might be in the new um shopping center over by publics
404
00:33:20,496 --> 00:33:28,036
or by uh papa john's i should say because their address is there right now where they've got that
405
00:33:28,036 --> 00:33:34,116
posted so i guess there could be two chiropractors in town eventually one day uh history nugget well
406
00:33:34,116 --> 00:33:40,036
1756 is how far we've made it into our history. The mayor, Andrew Lewis, built Fort Virginia
407
00:33:40,036 --> 00:33:46,516
near Okoda on Cherokee land, 25 miles southeast of Knoxville. Not much time passed before the
408
00:33:46,516 --> 00:33:52,056
Native Americans destroyed that fort because they were definitely in the center of Cherokee
409
00:33:52,056 --> 00:34:10,364
country The English also built Fort Loudoun which is now Von Rowe Tennessee with the intention of keeping the Cherokee loyalty divided The plan failed in 1760 The Cherokee surrounded that fort and finally assassinated by most of the captives
410
00:34:10,844 --> 00:34:16,404
So in spite of the English disaster, the French lost the war and all their leverage in North America
411
00:34:16,404 --> 00:34:23,764
and ceded the territory to the English, who claimed the right to all lands east of the Mississippi River.
412
00:34:23,764 --> 00:34:30,784
and so the battle of the lands goes on upcoming events nothing really to recap since last show
413
00:34:30,784 --> 00:34:36,984
new events that are coming we got the fairview family and community education the fce book club
414
00:34:36,984 --> 00:34:42,024
is going on this is on march 18th and so you can join them there they're linked in at work
415
00:34:42,024 --> 00:34:48,704
but basically they're reading kristen hannah's the woman and they meet at 145 to 150 p.m
416
00:34:48,704 --> 00:34:57,924
with that link not working i don't have the location march the march 21st was supposed to
417
00:34:57,924 --> 00:35:03,164
be the star party and pizzazz with dyer at the boo nature park that's definitely canceled in there
418
00:35:03,164 --> 00:35:09,584
march 21st for family and march 28 for adult spring skate night at the fairview rec center
419
00:35:09,584 --> 00:35:17,464
from 5 to 7 30 and so obviously the family night is 80s request hour is 6 30 to 7 30 and the adult
420
00:35:17,464 --> 00:35:23,684
side is 60s request hours 6 30 7 30 five dollars per skate four dollars for bringing a friend
421
00:35:23,684 --> 00:35:29,144
so definitely check that out april 28th is still the fairview titans junior pro first annual four
422
00:35:29,144 --> 00:35:35,044
man golf scramble so pay attention for that because that's still happening and we've got
423
00:35:35,044 --> 00:35:39,824
all the details and signups for there and there easter egg hunt is at the ballpark on highway 96
424
00:35:39,824 --> 00:35:46,704
on march 28th and they still have the arts and crafts fair may 2nd on at buoy park so they have
425
00:35:46,704 --> 00:35:51,984
posted yet again that they're still cleaning up and they've got contractors. And I think everyone's
426
00:35:51,984 --> 00:35:56,184
frustration level is just getting worse and worse and worse because they want to get back into buoy.
427
00:35:57,524 --> 00:36:03,064
So we'll see that. Obviously, this is also an election year. So right now, between now,
428
00:36:03,264 --> 00:36:09,684
it's your absentee ballot time, but early voting will be April 15th through 30th. And August 6th
429
00:36:09,684 --> 00:36:14,784

438
00:36:51,244 --> 00:36:56,804
has great programs over the summer, and they've made a lot of state champions.
439
00:36:57,064 --> 00:36:58,204
So they've got a really good thing.
440
00:36:58,504 --> 00:36:58,984
School news.
441
00:36:59,524 --> 00:37:03,524
Well, April 3rd, we're kind of waiting for this next, quote, spring holiday,
442
00:37:03,664 --> 00:37:07,004
but we really know that as Good Friday, and the rest of the world does too.
443
00:37:07,104 --> 00:37:08,984
So it's kind of always interesting when they do that.
444
00:37:09,704 --> 00:37:12,464
March 21st, or May 21st, is our last half day of school.
445

No new news since last week, but we mentioned it last time is Westwood was turned 25 years old last week.
448
00:37:21,724 --> 00:37:26,664
And there was lots of people posting about how they were some of the first kids to go there 25 years ago.
449
00:37:27,024 --> 00:37:27,804
Falcon news.
450
00:37:28,624 --> 00:37:33,804
Well, teacher of the week was Miss Jones, who is one of the media specialists.

The middle school is participating in drive away hunger from our food.

485
00:40:51,444 --> 00:40:56,264
the Fairview High School PTO is looking for volunteers. So they need a president, a vice
486
00:40:56,264 --> 00:41:01,624
president, a secretary, and a treasurer. And I've got that QR code in that link there for you to do
487
00:41:01,624 --> 00:41:07,504
that. So definitely check that out. And then obviously, if you have any students driving,
488
00:41:07,784 --> 00:41:12,724
then yeah, fill out the forms on their faith moment. Well, this week, I wanted to do something
489
00:41:12,724 --> 00:41:16,664
related to the show number, because I just searched if there was some kind of significance
490
00:41:16,664 --> 00:41:23,084
with the number 26. And when I did that, I found out that the sum of these four letters
491
00:41:23,084 --> 00:41:33,424
are 26. And it's the Hebrew word for Yahweh, Y-H-W-H. There's, you know, this article basically
492
00:41:33,424 --> 00:41:41,744
in the Bronze and Iron Age for the religion of ancient Israel and Judah, Yahwism, for the modern
493
00:41:41,744 --> 00:41:48,544
monotheistic conception of Yahweh as the God in Judaism and the God in Christianity.
494
00:41:49,244 --> 00:41:59,604
So the Hebrew synonym is YHWH is also called the Tetrogrammaton, used Yahweh from there.
495
00:41:59,604 --> 00:42:02,464
And I'm going to mess all these words up, but I'm just trying my best here.
496
00:42:02,904 --> 00:42:07,344
The deity's name was written in Paleo-Hebrew, which was those letters.
497
00:42:07,544 --> 00:42:11,064
And then in block script, we have it in the show notes, translated to Yahweh.
498
00:42:11,064 --> 00:42:16,404
Modern scholarship has reached a consistent that it transcribes this to Yahweh.
499
00:42:16,864 --> 00:42:25,984
The certain version forms of Yeho and Yahoo and Yah and Yo appear in the personal names and phrases such as Hallelujah.
500
00:42:27,984 --> 00:42:36,804
This security of this name is well known a commandment of taking the Lord's name in vain,
501
00:42:36,804 --> 00:42:42,484
led to the increasingly strict prohibition of speaking or writing this term at all.
502
00:42:43,044 --> 00:42:46,604
Rabbinic sources suggest that by the second temple period,
503
00:42:47,144 --> 00:42:54,104
the name of God was officially pronounced only once a year by the high priest on the Day of Atonement.
504
00:42:54,564 --> 00:42:58,264
After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE,
505
00:42:58,264 --> 00:43:02,804
the original pronunciation of the name was forgotten entirely.
506
00:43:02,804 --> 00:43:07,584
The four letter name is also commonly known as the Tetragrammaton.
507
00:43:07,924 --> 00:43:10,444
As we've got that is a four letter name.
508
00:43:10,524 --> 00:43:11,984
So kind of interesting.
509
00:43:12,184 --> 00:43:18,444
And the Tetragrammaton is derived from the Hebrew root meaning to be, to exist, is often
510
00:43:18,444 --> 00:43:24,264
referred to as I am the existing one who causes to become.
511
00:43:24,424 --> 00:43:28,504
It signifies God's eternal life and self-existent nature.
512
00:43:30,044 --> 00:43:32,084
And so we've got some of this stuff there.
513
00:43:32,084 --> 00:43:37,884
And like the four letters are Yad, He, Vav, and He.
514
00:43:38,424 --> 00:43:40,524
And that's read right to left.
515
00:43:41,804 --> 00:43:51,124
And so this is basically the way you say this is all from there.
516
00:43:51,624 --> 00:43:55,284
My Lord, Hashem, Adani, and Yahweh.
517
00:43:55,464 --> 00:43:56,944
It's all different ways between there.
518
00:43:57,404 --> 00:44:00,164
So kind of interesting that 26 happened to be related to that.
519
00:44:00,164 --> 00:44:01,964
So I had to definitely call that out.
520
00:44:02,084 --> 00:44:04,464
So donations, nothing new on the donation front.
521
00:44:04,764 --> 00:44:06,104
We're still working on there.
522
00:44:06,224 --> 00:44:10,284
If you can support us, that would be great because right now it kind of feels like, you
523
00:44:10,284 --> 00:44:11,604
know, just talking to the microphone.
524
00:44:11,604 --> 00:44:13,364
And I think some people are listening.
525
00:44:13,464 --> 00:44:16,624
I see downloads, but I don't see any value coming back.
526
00:44:16,804 --> 00:44:19,824
No one's using like the fountain app or anything like that to send a donation.
527
00:44:20,524 --> 00:44:25,944
But we appreciate everyone listening and sharing the podcast and letting people know that, hey,
528
00:44:25,944 --> 00:44:27,564
there's some actual good information in here.
529
00:44:27,564 --> 00:44:30,204
And this whole podcast is broken into chapters.
530
00:44:30,204 --> 00:44:37,844
So you can skip around if there's a section that goes too long and you're not interested in just hit the next, especially if you're using a podcasting 2.0 app.
531
00:44:38,884 --> 00:44:40,184
Overall, you know, thank you.
532
00:44:40,384 --> 00:44:40,744

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,980
Howdy, and welcome to episode 26 of Hello Fairview, your local podcast made right here
2
00:00:07,980 --> 00:00:11,680
in Fairview for people in Fairview, Tennessee and the surrounding areas.
3
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:17,100
This is a weekly show released every Wednesday featuring stories that aim to inform and inspire
4
00:00:17,100 --> 00:00:21,500
local radio stations and newspapers don't exist in small towns like ours.
5
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:26,200
So we'll use Hello Fairview to fill that void with the news related to Fairview.
6
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,900
This is a value for value podcast, which means you contribute what you can based on the value you receive.
7
00:00:31,140 --> 00:00:35,260
This concept was founded by the podfather himself, Adam Curry, and his co-host,
8
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,320
John C. Dvorak of the No Agenda Show over 18 years ago.
9
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,500
Currently, this is just a one man operation.
10
00:00:40,740 --> 00:00:46,280
So if you have any ideas, events, business opportunities or job openings, please don't hesitate to let me know.
11
00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:50,320
Use the contact form on the website and we'll work to get the updates out on the next episode.
12
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,380
You are a producer of the show.
13
00:00:52,380 --> 00:00:57,220
You are not the product because your time and attention are not being sold to advertisers for their value.
14
00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:58,820
Some shows will be longer.
15
00:00:58,980 --> 00:00:59,820
Others will be shorter.
16
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,780
But I'll do my best to always keep things relevant.
17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:04,360
Traffic time.
18
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,800
Well, it's definitely still construction busy.
19
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:12,720
You can still wait 5 to 20 minutes to make a left in the morning and afternoon.
20
00:01:13,780 --> 00:01:19,140
And right at right turn on Highway 100 at Old Cox or to the rec center.
21
00:01:19,140 --> 00:01:25,180
the sidewalk project has extended all the way down uh as you've seen the waddles those little
22
00:01:25,180 --> 00:01:30,200
uh straw things that are going all up and down so those are going in you can see them installing
23
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,040
all the drains so that's starting to go through there we'll have some updates and city news on
24
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:39,680
that because they've actually posted some stuff which is great um and they finally have used the
25
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:44,840
mini they built a mini bridge over the culvert uh so that's finally happening so now you can
26
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,360
actually see the road is widening before it just looked like it was kind of chaos, but they know
27
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,500
what they're doing. There's also been a lot of lane closures that have caused serious backups,
28
00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:57,660
and it's really luck of the draw if it's going to be a bad day or a good day to make a turn
29
00:01:57,660 --> 00:02:04,720
on Highway 100. So good luck out there. Red light update, we still got three, Old Cox Public and
30
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:11,920
Walmart. Still not getting any, the city center and entrance has those lights hung but not turned
31
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:16,200
on and Cumberland and 100 will eventually have some when that expansion occurs, which will be
32
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:22,080
a couple months from now. Uh, I think before we'll start seeing that, I'm not sure if how either one
33
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:28,140
of those two is going to hurt or help. Uh, I hope, uh, we'll have to see because the crossing guard
34
00:02:28,140 --> 00:02:33,620
manages that during school closures. Uh, and so we'll have to see how that goes from there. Uh,
35
00:02:33,620 --> 00:02:37,900
it was mentioned after the last show that, uh, there are two more red lights and 40, uh, you know,
36
00:02:37,900 --> 00:02:43,540
for a total of five red lights in the town because I-40 is within the city limits. And I never really
37
00:02:43,540 --> 00:02:49,580
thought about that because those properties are so surrounded by the county that I didn't think
38
00:02:49,580 --> 00:02:55,560
Fairview city limits ran up there based on the annexations around Old Cox and Elrod and everything
39
00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:01,460
around there at the edge. But I guess we do have five red lights. And I even put a little map there
40
00:03:01,460 --> 00:03:06,880
in the show notes there so you can see that. And then here we go. Here's that update from there.
41
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:12,200
information from TDOT. Crews have completed necessary extension of a box culvert just southwest
42
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,460
of the Cumberland Drive, as well as the grading to install the storm drains around the intersection
43
00:03:16,460 --> 00:03:22,160
to Fairview Boulevard. We saw that the other day at the Fairview Elementary. They're starting to
44
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:28,260
lay all the concrete drain pipes around there. So those are going. So you're going to see that.
45
00:03:28,260 --> 00:03:33,200
They closed the road a couple of times to unload those from the trucks. And so the contractor of
46
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:38,620
project continues to work around Cumberland Drive and the school resulting in single lane closures
47
00:03:38,620 --> 00:03:44,360
and flagging be aware of the contracted crews maybe in the area clearing debris from the winter storm
48
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:52,000
off the routes too so basically a double trouble on Highway 100 where we're going to have
49
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,700
closures because of the construction and then closures because of the tree pickup
50
00:03:56,700 --> 00:04:02,200
and then the TDOT lane closure report for the city of Fairview during this week basically
51
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:10,420
Um, the state road 96, there's some sewer and concrete work around my marker 10, some
52
00:04:10,420 --> 00:04:12,600
waterline improvements around that same place.
53
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:20,620
And then our, uh, Williamson County state road, 100 sidewalk repair 3 16 to 3 29 AM to
54
00:04:20,620 --> 00:04:21,240
3 PM.
55
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,660
There'll be flagging operations.
56
00:04:22,660 --> 00:04:27,240
I've seen them do that a little bit more and that's at landmark three to 5.5, which
57
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,300
is basically, uh, from buoy all the way down to the rec center.
58
00:04:31,300 --> 00:04:38,280
and then you can see there's some i-40 debris cleanup 840 they're doing some resurfacing
59
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:44,520
and so intermittent closures since the way that road has jumps down it we'll see how that goes
60
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:49,820
and then there's a couple others related to davidson county and everything else that really
61
00:04:49,820 --> 00:04:53,400
those don't apply to us i'll remove them out of there so it's just short and sweet
62
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:59,040
and city center you know they're digging over there again which appears to be utility road
63
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:04,420
and I made a comment last time that you could see through Bowie Park but what I really intended I
64
00:05:04,420 --> 00:05:10,020
guess is that you could see around it and through it because those used to all be trees to the right
65
00:05:10,020 --> 00:05:17,620
of the park and now those trees are all gone and it is just dirt and fill so you can definitely see
66
00:05:17,620 --> 00:05:23,040
around it through it however you want to look at it all right well we're growing city news well
67
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:28,000
things are definitely rolling along pretty normal the one is still mentioned it this is the last time
68
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:34,420
is that the three-way stop, the stop sign was at Horn Tavern and Cleveland Lane. So this will take
69
00:05:34,420 --> 00:05:37,620
people a while to get through there. So make sure you're extra careful around the intersection
70
00:05:37,620 --> 00:05:42,140
because there could still be people blowing through it. And the text notice. Basically,
71
00:05:42,460 --> 00:05:48,000
the city posted that there have been aware of a survey that was sent out to citizens regarding the
72
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:53,500
Fairviews area feature. Please note that this was not distributed by the city. And basically,
73
00:05:53,500 --> 00:06:01,740
it said hi person uh i am amy with tennessee surveys we've opened up a short poll regarding
74
00:06:01,740 --> 00:06:09,140
emergency care and fairview make sure your voice is heard well if you clicked on that um you would
75
00:06:09,140 --> 00:06:14,400
have seen that this was something that was sent out by tristar because the question is related to
76
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,560
if you've ever been to a tristar er facility so it wasn't if you had been to an ascension
77
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,040
or if you needed ER service just generically.
78
00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:27,480
There were a couple of questions that were generic and related to Fairview,
79
00:06:27,700 --> 00:06:31,100
but then the real questions that they care about were still in there too.
80
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,040
City debris cleanup has started on March 16th,
81
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,680
and so make sure you'll see those things traveling around.
82
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,740
And then if you're in the county, I've still not found any decisive news
83
00:06:43,740 --> 00:06:46,440
of when they're going to do anything for county people.
84
00:06:47,060 --> 00:06:49,400
State of emergency is still going on.
85
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:56,080
till March 22nd. And so I guess they're going to keep the state of emergency until all the debris
86
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:01,560
has been cleaned up, buoy parks opened, and they have gotten their applications for all the federal
87
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:08,240
money as I guess what it has to be. Easter egg hunt, that's still March 28th at 10 AM. And it's
88
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:15,220
moved to the Lions Club ballpark on at 214 Highway 96. So make sure you get there. And like we talked
89
00:07:15,220 --> 00:07:21,620
about Ascension Health ER, and this is the double hospital trouble. Ascension Health ER and TriStar
90
00:07:21,620 --> 00:07:28,040
Fairview ER were both announced. And I'm trying to look on the status of each one. And there's not
91
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,960
anything posted on the state of Tennessee yet for other applications. TriStar was at the farmer's
92
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:40,260
market this weekend, trying to, you know, get some people to sign things and, you know, just be out
93
00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:46,580
there to be the favorite. And so I put the two addresses in there. So Ascension is at 1866
94
00:07:46,580 --> 00:07:54,520
Fairview Boulevard. And they spent $700,000 on that piece of property on 122921. And the TriStar
95
00:07:54,520 --> 00:08:02,340
property is at 2273 Fairview Boulevard. And they spent $1.5 million on that piece of property on
96
00:08:02,340 --> 00:08:08,900
81525. And the same person who bought and is in charge, I guess, of buying the real estate there
97
00:08:08,900 --> 00:08:19,060
Ken Carger has also bought other properties up and down Fairview Boulevard. So the 2273 being the
98
00:08:19,060 --> 00:08:26,620
main one, and then the 2382 being just down from the road from it, and then a 2391 where they spent
99
00:08:26,620 --> 00:08:33,260
a million dollars back in 2023. So there's probably other TriStar related things coming
100
00:08:33,260 --> 00:08:35,800
if that person is still working from there.
101
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:45,180
One thing that came out was the Fairview Community and Community Education FCE scholarship is the thing.
102
00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:46,220
I didn't know that.
103
00:08:46,300 --> 00:08:48,020
That's at the high school and seniors.
104
00:08:48,220 --> 00:08:49,220
It's a Schoology page.
105
00:08:49,260 --> 00:08:54,260
This year it's $2,000 and it has a flyer for the scholarship information.
106
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,700
And that's due this week on March 20th.
107
00:08:56,700 --> 00:09:00,480
So if you've got a kid in there and you haven't heard of this $2,000 scholarship,
108
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:02,720
every little bit helps when you're going over there.
109
00:09:03,260 --> 00:09:12,100
to college. Last week, also, the fire crews completed their annual re-inspection and training
110
00:09:12,100 --> 00:09:20,220
on vehicle extraction, thanks to the MJ Sun Wrecker LLC, which continues to provide support
111
00:09:20,220 --> 00:09:25,960
and the needs to have that, to have those cars. So thank you for MJ and Sun for doing that.
112
00:09:27,180 --> 00:09:32,060
Scam alert. This is another thing posted by the city. We reported scammers that are advertising
113
00:09:32,060 --> 00:09:38,300
that they are hosting a craft fair on April 11th and 12th at Bowie. The city has not approved any
114
00:09:38,300 --> 00:09:43,100
business organization or individual to have an event at Bowie on these days. And I mean, I guess
115
00:09:43,100 --> 00:09:47,420
it may still be closed by then too. So pay attention to that. So here's a few reminders
116
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:51,640
to help protect you from scammers. Never send money and gift cards to people over the phone
117
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:56,860
that you do not know or on the internet. Never reveal personal information like your banking
118
00:09:56,860 --> 00:10:01,920
information or social security number over the phone or the internet. Always ask questions.
119
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,120
and details from the caller.
120
00:10:03,420 --> 00:10:06,200
And just don't be afraid to just hang up if it sounds like that.
121
00:10:06,680 --> 00:10:12,160
Last but not least, Fairview has a story that was written by the people and who built it.
122
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:17,420
So on April 2nd, along with citizen Bert Hester, this is from Dom DeBuffalini, there will be
123
00:10:17,420 --> 00:10:21,120
an introduction of a resolution at the Board of Commissioners meeting to encourage new
124
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,620
developments to honor Fairview's past by naming at least one street after a resident
125
00:10:25,620 --> 00:10:26,880
who made a lasting impact.
126
00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:31,300
As our city continues to grow, it is a responsibility that we make the growth respect
127
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:37,080
respect and reflect who we are and who we are not and where we're going. This initiative about
128
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:43,600
preserving our history, honoring those members who served us and gave back, making sure the future
129
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:49,940
generations recognize the names that shaped Fairview. So Bert and Don are asking for your
130
00:10:49,940 --> 00:10:55,180
input. There's a link to the form in the show notes. And let's continue to work together to
131
00:10:55,180 --> 00:10:56,080
make Fairview's future.
132
00:10:56,560 --> 00:10:57,580
Never forget its past.
133
00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:58,560
Houses.
134
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,000
Well, there is 236 for sale from 230 last week.
135
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:03,980
So we got six new ones.
136
00:11:03,980 --> 00:11:10,020
We still got the $3.9 million world record holder and the $230,000 out there.
137
00:11:10,660 --> 00:11:26,828
Another thing is is this period there was 12 homes sold with the most expensive being And the minimum one piece of property was sold this period February 23rd through 27th was
138
00:11:26,828 --> 00:11:31,068
So the average home sold out of those 12 was $619,000.
139
00:11:31,628 --> 00:11:39,688
Well, I went back and dug through all the house selling records basically for the past, call it 13 months, 14 months,
140
00:11:40,108 --> 00:11:44,828
from February 23rd through 27th to December 30th from there.
141
00:11:44,828 --> 00:11:47,948
and we have had 544 homes sold.
142
00:11:48,488 --> 00:11:51,508
The most expensive was $7.83 million.
143
00:11:52,208 --> 00:11:54,168
And the cheapest thing in that period of time
144
00:11:54,168 --> 00:11:56,988
was a little chunk of land for 13,100.
145
00:11:57,628 --> 00:12:00,248
And that means our average that we had
146
00:12:00,248 --> 00:12:03,508
like a couple of weeks ago of 600,000 isn't that far off
147
00:12:03,508 --> 00:12:06,928
because it's 687,000 is our average.
148
00:12:07,068 --> 00:12:08,928
So I don't think affordable housing
149
00:12:08,928 --> 00:12:10,988
is something that's possible
150
00:12:10,988 --> 00:12:13,428
with the way everything else is around here
151
00:12:13,428 --> 00:12:19,148
in Williamson County, not just Fairview. So I'll post that chart in a separate post because I think
152
00:12:19,148 --> 00:12:23,728
it's interesting. Town meeting updates. Well, there was no board of zoning appeals. There was
153
00:12:23,728 --> 00:12:30,048
a meeting with the local parks and recreation fund grant at 6 p.m. on March 17th. And this was
154
00:12:30,048 --> 00:12:35,868
to talk about if awarded this. And this is Kim Lee Horn, who's been, I guess, preparing this.
155
00:12:36,328 --> 00:12:39,808
And so I have all the slides in here. I'm not going to read every single thing. Otherwise,
156
00:12:39,808 --> 00:12:46,788
this would take forever but kimberly kimley horn and 906 studio has been working with the city
157
00:12:46,788 --> 00:12:55,148
since august of 2024 to start making the planning and the grant for this um and so this was part of
158
00:12:55,148 --> 00:13:01,448
the master plan the park's master plan in 2023 i have a link to that in the show notes and basically
159
00:13:01,448 --> 00:13:09,028
it's a 50 50 match grant uh and the historic park is across from uh the rec center if you look you
160
00:13:09,028 --> 00:13:16,268
look to that and that there's 10,009 residents living here. And there were some good demographics,
161
00:13:16,268 --> 00:13:21,928
which we won't get into all that. But the parks master plan has this. It's 175 pages.
162
00:13:22,248 --> 00:13:27,228
It was made in 2023. So in 2028, it'll probably get updated. And this is basically the goals
163
00:13:27,228 --> 00:13:33,988
of what we wanted in our park system in Fairview, Tennessee. So we got all that going.
164
00:13:33,988 --> 00:13:41,768
they talked about the some of the cost associated with that and the sustainability and kind of like
165
00:13:41,768 --> 00:13:48,328
the vicinity and the grading of the place so they could have this amphitheater and 36 parking spaces
166
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:54,428
24 bays for a farmer's market and kind of a walking path that's ADA compliant so lots of
167
00:13:54,428 --> 00:14:02,588
cool things kind of in there and you know this is a 50 percent of the fund will be funded by that
168
00:14:02,588 --> 00:14:08,228
25% of the fund of this project will be funded by the land, which it appraised for over $700,000.
169
00:14:08,728 --> 00:14:13,788
So that's what they need. And then 25% will be matched by city funds. So we will pay 25%
170
00:14:13,788 --> 00:14:23,888
of this value. And so this whole thing is $2.6 million and 2.25 will go into there. And there's
171
00:14:23,888 --> 00:14:28,348
a couple of different things for stormwater improvements, the ADA compliant and the stage
172
00:14:28,348 --> 00:14:35,268
and farmer's market. Uh, so it's mostly it's even between landscaping and stormwater improvements,
173
00:14:35,268 --> 00:14:42,308
and then actually building the stage, the farmer's market and, uh, the restaurant building or the
174
00:14:42,308 --> 00:14:47,588
restroom building and the land values on $760,000. Basically, this is like a three-year timeline.
175
00:14:47,748 --> 00:14:51,628
They expect it to be more. They had some new renderings in here. So we've got those in the
176
00:14:51,628 --> 00:14:56,168
show notes. So you can see those, um, it gives you a little bit of the scale of what it's going
177
00:14:56,168 --> 00:15:02,168
to be like, uh, and talked about how, you know, there is parking that is available from a city
178
00:15:02,168 --> 00:15:06,268
owned property down deer Ridge, but that would be a separate discussion if they can use that
179
00:15:06,268 --> 00:15:11,148
T deck money for that. So we'll have to see how that goes. They think it's a very high success
180
00:15:11,148 --> 00:15:15,808
rate as long as you fill the things in correctly on getting this grant. And so I think that part's
181
00:15:15,808 --> 00:15:22,808
good. Um, and, uh, this has been going on for a while and, uh, they wrapped up with some thank
182
00:15:22,808 --> 00:15:29,028
use and looking forward to get this going. So planning commission, uh, basically we gained
183
00:15:29,028 --> 00:15:35,868
around 57 houses, but there were some people that didn't show up. So we had a planning commission
184
00:15:35,868 --> 00:15:45,168
meeting on three 1726. Uh, we were missing, uh, uh, Ms. Schilling, Mr. Dawson and Mr. Ritt,
185
00:15:45,228 --> 00:15:49,448
I think were the three. Uh, sometimes it's not very clear. They don't mic that stuff very well.
186
00:15:49,448 --> 00:15:51,228
And then you can't really see some of the stuff.
187
00:15:51,868 --> 00:15:53,448
Agenda pass 7-0.
188
00:15:53,588 --> 00:15:54,748
So there's only seven people there.
189
00:15:55,668 --> 00:15:58,668
PC resolution 826, pass 7-0.
190
00:15:58,988 --> 00:16:00,068
This is 50 homes.
191
00:16:00,408 --> 00:16:01,888
This is North American Realty.
192
00:16:02,388 --> 00:16:08,568
This is 2.7 acres plus 29.17, 31.95 acres total.
193
00:16:08,868 --> 00:16:11,628
This did not show up properly on the agenda.
194
00:16:11,628 --> 00:16:21,628
It was not updated in time because it was only the 29.7 acre property listed to be on there.
195
00:16:21,708 --> 00:16:25,568
This was already set to be residential medium in the 2040 plan.
196
00:16:26,068 --> 00:16:33,408
Mr. Nathan came out there and basically this is just a Orange Shire expansion with 20,000 square foot locks, lots on it.
197
00:16:34,188 --> 00:16:37,608
There was a question about the agenda and where it came from.
198
00:16:37,608 --> 00:16:43,728
um and there were but there was also a mention of the zone to and from and even an updated one
199
00:16:43,728 --> 00:16:48,848
where they kept the template to show there um they're thinking no more than 40 to 50 homes but
200
00:16:48,848 --> 00:16:53,468
then when he was talking about it he said 50 a couple times when he was mentioning how many plots
201
00:16:53,468 --> 00:17:00,008
there are so it looks like it's more like 50 and not 40 uh mr mcdonald uh with the highway he asked
202
00:17:00,008 --> 00:17:06,748
about the traffic and the zoning and all that and since there's um since there is only one entrance
203
00:17:06,748 --> 00:17:10,568
an exit and there's more than 30, there will have to be sprinklers in these house.
204
00:17:11,248 --> 00:17:16,808
And the way this thing will work is it has its next reading on March 19th and April 2nd
205
00:17:16,808 --> 00:17:17,968
will be its final reading.
206
00:17:18,128 --> 00:17:18,988
So it won't be too long.
207
00:17:19,488 --> 00:17:25,068
This property is converted from RS20 to CD3 and that would be May 2nd when to be the final
208
00:17:25,068 --> 00:17:29,208
reading and would be converted for them, which still leaves them that 20,000 square foot.
209
00:17:29,208 --> 00:17:34,188
There wasn't any traffic studies completed because they're under the limit now.
210
00:17:34,188 --> 00:17:39,228
now. And they also talked about kind of the Sunday traffic of how this thing will flow coming in and
211
00:17:39,228 --> 00:17:44,148
out of there. There was also a conversation about Dixon water. And if they may have to install a
212
00:17:44,148 --> 00:17:49,908
step system, they're not far enough along, I guess, to know that and what they've been working with,
213
00:17:49,908 --> 00:17:55,908
because there are lots of limits from Dixon water. Mr. McDonald said, even if we didn't pass this
214
00:17:55,908 --> 00:18:01,068
tonight, it's still going to become CD three on the map. And they said, yes, unless the map was
215
00:18:01,068 --> 00:18:08,608
submitted. CD3 equals four ohms per acre with a 70 to maximum 150 foot wide lot and single family
216
00:18:08,608 --> 00:18:15,088
homes. The general counsel made sure and made a note that says you can't talk about the future,
217
00:18:15,208 --> 00:18:19,708
you're exceeding your power and discretion, which is impossible. You need to look at what's in front
218
00:18:19,708 --> 00:18:26,728
of you. This is R20 PUD, general counsel. We have to deal with what's in front of us. And if there's
219
00:18:26,728 --> 00:18:30,888
a sufficiency, that's fine, but we have to vote what's on front of us and not what could be in
220
00:18:30,888 --> 00:18:38,268
the future. And then, uh, that was all resorting there. So that passed seven zero, uh, PC resolution
221
00:18:38,268 --> 00:18:47,488
nine 26, it passed seven zero. Uh, this is 4.81 acres and unknown density plans. The 2040 plan
222
00:18:47,488 --> 00:18:52,708
shows that it's there. No representatives, no questions. There we go. Then the one that took
223
00:18:52,708 --> 00:19:00,508
forever that night, uh, is 1026. And that is past six to one with Mr. King and no, um,
224
00:19:00,888 --> 00:19:07,568
four to five homes is what's planning to go here. This is a 24-year plan shows that it's there,
225
00:19:07,668 --> 00:19:13,148
but RS-15 is not in alignment. May 7th is when the final reading of that development code would
226
00:19:13,148 --> 00:19:18,788
come in there. No representative came there. And so basically they were sitting there going back
227
00:19:18,788 --> 00:19:24,808
and forth on questions, the driveway access, the alignment to there and Mayor Anderson coming
228
00:19:24,808 --> 00:19:31,388
through there uh of going of what's what's more in there and so we didn't have any more details of
229
00:19:31,388 --> 00:19:36,608
what they wanted so it looked like it could only be four to five houses so this one kind of just
230
00:19:36,608 --> 00:19:41,168
got discussed back and forth and this is on horn taver road and this is two more acres and this is
231
00:19:41,168 --> 00:19:47,748
uh there's one right beside it again um that's another two acres on horn taver road basically
232
00:19:47,748 --> 00:19:52,968
gluing this together where they're gonna have one house and build four to five more houses based on
233
00:19:52,968 --> 00:20:00,508
that. And this one also passed six to one with Mr. King as a no. And, um, then 1226 pretty much
234
00:20:00,508 --> 00:20:07,408
took about 30 minutes on its own. And this actually got passed as a deferral. Um, the
235
00:20:07,408 --> 00:20:14,348
representative that came there, um, got there, but basically this is a 7,900 square foot commercial,
236
00:20:14,348 --> 00:20:19,628
uh, tenant with three tenant spaces on Glen Haven drive called the Jingo retail center.
237
00:20:19,628 --> 00:20:21,028
There's 25 parking spots.
238
00:20:21,188 --> 00:20:26,908
They wanted a tree bank exception and an underground water detention request are also part of this.
239
00:20:27,468 --> 00:20:31,128
Mr. Chase was the person that came there, came to the city staff on Haven Drive,
240
00:20:31,188 --> 00:20:34,468
talking about widening it 12 feet and making a six-foot curb.
241
00:20:35,228 --> 00:20:39,488
There's also stuff at the intersection of Highway 100, and this curb is on the south side.
242
00:20:40,768 --> 00:20:45,068
There's some rolled curb that would be done, and they're trying to just keep the thing simple
243
00:20:45,068 --> 00:20:47,908
and use the same existing TDOT drainage
244
00:20:47,908 --> 00:20:51,488
because the current drainage and retention pond
245
00:20:51,488 --> 00:20:54,068
versus detention pond has already been there.
246
00:20:54,488 --> 00:20:57,188
But Mr. Pape looked at this
247
00:20:57,188 --> 00:20:59,028
and found that there were some variances there
248
00:20:59,028 --> 00:21:02,628
that a 20 foot landscaping strip was required
249
00:21:02,628 --> 00:21:05,328
and that there was 20% slopes on the property.
250
00:21:05,328 --> 00:21:09,048
And there was a question of if you can even build on it
251
00:21:09,048 --> 00:21:11,508
with the way the new development code is written.
252
00:21:12,168 --> 00:21:14,788
And so we'll have to see how that kind of goes.
253
00:21:14,788 --> 00:21:16,048
There's a lot of large silence.
254
00:21:16,228 --> 00:21:17,388
And then this was a lot of time.
255
00:21:17,488 --> 00:21:21,948
There's probably five plus minutes of Mr. Greer and the engineering team looking through stuff.
256
00:21:22,428 --> 00:21:31,128
Mr. McDonald would like to hear a, you know, about the buffer and the slopes from the code staff.
257
00:21:31,408 --> 00:21:35,548
The city staff talked about how Mr. Pape is right, but this is a case by case basis.
258
00:21:35,548 --> 00:21:37,128
And the city staff would work on this.
259
00:21:38,808 --> 00:21:41,768
And the square footage based on the steep space.
260
00:21:41,768 --> 00:21:46,168
And then, you know, there was 5,000 square foot, which is right at the limit with city staff.
261
00:21:46,528 --> 00:21:49,168
They went back and forth at isolated slopes.
262
00:21:50,048 --> 00:21:54,228
And Mr. Pape just commented up on 13102.2.
263
00:21:54,848 --> 00:21:58,008
And this is about stormwater versus the infrastructure building.
264
00:21:58,148 --> 00:21:59,708
So either one of those could do it.
265
00:21:59,808 --> 00:22:03,588
But then this is either still unbuildable or would require a variance.
266
00:22:04,808 --> 00:22:08,468
We talked about, Mr. McDonald said we should just come back with a variance.
267
00:22:08,468 --> 00:22:11,328
General counsel says the request is what it is.
268
00:22:11,328 --> 00:22:17,868
and it's a fair request as it is um is there any way it could be designed um and our idea was to
269
00:22:17,868 --> 00:22:21,808
change a couple things there city staff went and looked at the codes a long time back and forth
270
00:22:21,808 --> 00:22:26,508
said that it looked like it had the right buffer but the opaque buffer which could be provided by
271
00:22:26,508 --> 00:22:32,228
fence wasn't crystal clear um and this is where general counsel says you might get a denial tonight
272
00:22:32,228 --> 00:22:46,956
if you think your application you might want to get a deferral um and he actually helping them And Mr Chase went to go talk to the developer Anderson said you know this zoning code gives the staff the opportunity to variances or not
273
00:22:46,956 --> 00:22:53,716
for it to be accepted. And that this is what the staff knows of the knowledge of the planning.
274
00:22:54,136 --> 00:22:58,596
And then they went back and four general counsels came back again saying that this notes is five
275
00:22:58,596 --> 00:23:03,696
minute timetable and deferred. We're spending so much time on this. We should just vote or deferral.
276
00:23:03,696 --> 00:23:10,796
and so they went back and finally the mr chasen team said that they were okay for their uh for
277
00:23:10,796 --> 00:23:16,816
these variances and they're going for their so it finally came back and got deferred there's a whole
278
00:23:16,816 --> 00:23:19,936
bunch more there but we'll just go ahead and skip it we got a picture of it it looks like a good
279
00:23:19,936 --> 00:23:25,376
looking building kind of looks like the one where papa john's and all that's in right now so this is
280
00:23:25,376 --> 00:23:31,176
uh we'll see how this goes so in next month they'll have those variances updated and then we'll have
281
00:23:31,176 --> 00:23:36,616
I guess another debate on this with the board of commissioners, um, yeah, or with the planning
282
00:23:36,616 --> 00:23:42,116
commission first. Uh, and then every other than that, there was just, um, everybody said, thank
283
00:23:42,116 --> 00:23:48,796
yous, uh, Mr. Pape, everybody. And thank you for the staff to working on this. And we're looking
284
00:23:48,796 --> 00:23:54,076
forward to the new zoning getting done. So lots of good stuff there. And then they adjourned no
285
00:23:54,076 --> 00:24:00,216
board of commissioners meeting, um, March 17th was also the, that parks and landscape board.
286
00:24:00,216 --> 00:24:06,596
So we had that that was done next town meetings, planning commissions on April 14th, board of commissioners is on March 19th.
287
00:24:06,596 --> 00:24:15,436
So just later this week and on that board of commissioners meeting, basically, they're going to talk about city events, some veteran park estimates for some of the things that the mega American Legion is doing.
288
00:24:15,436 --> 00:24:28,576
So that'll be good to see. Resolution 6225 is basically to formally accept subdivision improvements associated with Adams Preserve, basically wrapping up that that subdivision.
289
00:24:28,576 --> 00:24:37,476
uh, 2026.02 is, um, adopted by the Fairview zoning map and adopting the new development
290
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:41,936
codes. This is the board of commissioners voting on the, uh, board development code and the new
291
00:24:41,936 --> 00:24:52,016
zoning map ordinance. 2026.01 is a 62.53 acre located on Horn Taver road, consisting of,
292
00:24:52,016 --> 00:24:58,416
um, Williamson County tax map there. And this is going from RS 40 to RS 15. So stuffing some
293
00:24:58,416 --> 00:25:03,836
houses in there for sure. Uh, so that's really going to be, I mean, when I look at Horn Tower
294
00:25:03,836 --> 00:25:09,376
road and how crazy it is to turn in there and that kind of blind curve, and I think about 62 acres
295
00:25:09,376 --> 00:25:14,996
and RS 15, that could mean a hundred plus homes. Uh, I don't know how they're going to handle that
296
00:25:14,996 --> 00:25:22,856
traffic, uh, but we'll see. Uh, and then there was a public hearing on 20, 26, Oh three, which is a
297
00:25:22,856 --> 00:25:29,096
5.3 acre thing on Northwest highway, uh, going from RS 40 to R 20. And I think this is the one
298
00:25:29,096 --> 00:25:32,816
that was one of the donut holes that was getting filled up of getting annexed and now getting
299
00:25:32,816 --> 00:25:39,596
rezoned. Um, new business 1126 board of commissioners that to site development agree
300
00:25:39,596 --> 00:25:48,156
agreement of the fair view self storage place. And some of that resolution 1226 is a 1 million
301
00:25:48,156 --> 00:25:51,396
and $10,000 allocation.
302
00:25:53,396 --> 00:25:57,056
Therefore, the do, do, do, where was this one?
303
00:25:57,396 --> 00:26:00,856
Oh, it's just, it's just doing the capital outlay for 2026.
304
00:26:01,076 --> 00:26:01,236
Okay.
305
00:26:01,376 --> 00:26:01,636
All right.
306
00:26:02,636 --> 00:26:08,036
1326 is the William County to rescind resolution 22620.
307
00:26:08,216 --> 00:26:11,816
And we'll hear to when Williamson County hit a local growth plan.
308
00:26:11,816 --> 00:26:14,856
So basically agreeing to their growth plan plus fair views plan,
309
00:26:14,936 --> 00:26:17,996
getting squished together and resolution 1526.
310
00:26:18,156 --> 00:26:25,376
is authorizing the mayor to execute task orders for emergency debris removal and emergency debris
311
00:26:25,376 --> 00:26:30,696
monitoring services for the city of Fairview, Tennessee for the city manager. So basically,
312
00:26:30,696 --> 00:26:35,576
this is just a formal change of power for some of that kind of stuff. Board of Commissioners,
313
00:26:35,656 --> 00:26:41,296
next town hall is April 30th. Parks and Landscape, next one is April 6th. And then around town coffee
314
00:26:41,296 --> 00:26:49,716
is in April also. So we'll get to that. State of Tennessee. Well, you know, this was kind of
315
00:26:49,716 --> 00:26:54,016
an interesting news week when it came to the state of Tennessee. But when Tennessee lawmakers
316
00:26:54,016 --> 00:26:58,976
legalized sports betting in 2019, they hoped that it would create a new revenue source. But nearly
317
00:26:58,976 --> 00:27:06,596
seven years later, the Tennessee sports gambling tax revenue exceeds $100 million. The state lottery
318
00:27:06,596 --> 00:27:12,816
funded scholarship program faces an $80 million deficit. So basically gambling is bringing in more
319
00:27:12,816 --> 00:27:18,016
money for some of this stuff than lottery. And people are not playing the lottery as much if
320
00:27:18,016 --> 00:27:24,256
they have an $80 million budget surplus deficit. And then the Tennessee Department of Health is
321
00:27:24,256 --> 00:27:30,396
providing statewide information following more than 30 fatal overdoses since October of 2025
322
00:27:30,396 --> 00:27:36,556
associated with a newly identified opioid known as cyclomorphine.
323
00:27:37,076 --> 00:27:39,276
So definitely stay away from that stuff.
324
00:27:39,396 --> 00:27:43,356
The first time I've heard of that, I guess, is just a morphine derivative that's been something.
325
00:27:44,216 --> 00:27:50,116
Number three, we got Tennessee is poised to be the first state to require proof of immigration status as a requirement
326
00:27:50,116 --> 00:27:58,116
as an overturn to challenging the U.S. Supreme Court's 1982 decision of Player versus Doe,
327
00:27:58,116 --> 00:28:02,556
which barred schools from discriminating children based on immigration status.
328
00:28:03,136 --> 00:28:07,316
But House Republicans on March 17th, March 16th, passed House Bill 793,
329
00:28:07,776 --> 00:28:11,876
directing public schools to require students to provide proof of immigration status at enrollment.
330
00:28:12,516 --> 00:28:17,896
Students will be, schools will be required to report that number of students back up to their, to proof of their.
331
00:28:18,316 --> 00:28:23,796
NES was definitely in the news still as a couple more of these news channels dig in deeper
332
00:28:23,796 --> 00:28:27,616
to find out some of the problems that they had during the storm.
333
00:28:27,616 --> 00:28:33,016
and that they actually had less linemen with more customers than Middle Tennessee Electric.
334
00:28:33,296 --> 00:28:35,076
They didn't even have enough poles.
335
00:28:35,196 --> 00:28:37,016
They had to buy like 800 poles.
336
00:28:37,496 --> 00:28:42,056
They had delays in getting contractors and how they handled the whole customer triage
337
00:28:42,056 --> 00:28:45,436
of the outages, why people were out for power for almost two weeks there.
338
00:28:46,136 --> 00:28:46,676
The bills.
339
00:28:47,436 --> 00:28:50,816
Well, you know, they're kind of slowing down again, but there's only one thing on the agenda
340
00:28:50,816 --> 00:28:52,536
for this week and next week.
341
00:28:52,536 --> 00:29:01,096
but one of the things was SB 242, Homes Not Hedge Funds, was something that kind of came up there,
342
00:29:01,176 --> 00:29:08,076
the landlord bill, and this is to try to prevent homes from there. And basically what this is,
343
00:29:08,076 --> 00:29:14,276
is it's like legal entities including affiliates, meaning a company can't just create 10 LLCs
344
00:29:14,276 --> 00:29:21,056
and buy 99 homes in each one. So this is trying to get some of the business of owning some homes,
345
00:29:21,056 --> 00:29:25,276
and obviously the rental market in the state of Tennessee down.
346
00:29:26,076 --> 00:29:28,816
So this vote was recorded in there.
347
00:29:29,016 --> 00:29:31,636
So I've got the link in there for that.
348
00:29:32,016 --> 00:29:37,656
And so today there is, or the 19th, there is a fiscal review,
349
00:29:37,776 --> 00:29:39,996
which basically just has a list of a bunch of companies
350
00:29:39,996 --> 00:29:43,476
and them talking about all the things they're doing for health
351
00:29:43,476 --> 00:29:46,696
and for children and education and everything else in between there.
352
00:29:47,536 --> 00:29:50,116
So there's some budget stuff that will definitely happen from there.
353
00:29:50,116 --> 00:29:55,856
and next week on 323 there is the state building commission there's no agenda posted yet but i'm
354
00:29:55,856 --> 00:30:00,596
sure it's like the ones that we've covered in the past which is a percentage of money that's
355
00:30:00,596 --> 00:30:04,676
allocated to all these projects around the state from colleges to buildings to the va
356
00:30:04,676 --> 00:30:07,976
of how much money it's going to take and then if they have a change order
357
00:30:07,976 --> 00:30:14,376
how's the hill well it's bad it's definitely well after a tornado watch earlier this week
358
00:30:14,376 --> 00:30:15,836
and some crazy winds and storms.
359
00:30:16,976 --> 00:30:20,416
We went from 75 to 31 in just a couple of hours
360
00:30:20,416 --> 00:30:22,436
when we went to sleep and woke up the next day.
361
00:30:22,956 --> 00:30:24,656
But maybe we're done with the cold, hopefully.
362
00:30:24,836 --> 00:30:27,596
I don't know what that groundhog said again, but we'll see.
363
00:30:27,716 --> 00:30:29,956
But the hill is definitely passable, back to normal.
364
00:30:30,476 --> 00:30:33,416
Most of the debris is removed from that road, so it's good.
365
00:30:34,256 --> 00:30:38,236
This week, the weather guessers are predicting highs from 59 to 89
366
00:30:38,236 --> 00:30:43,496
and lows from 40 to 60 with no rain forecasted beyond 10% for the week.
367
00:30:43,496 --> 00:30:45,316
So it looks like it's going to be a beautiful weekend too.
368
00:30:46,496 --> 00:30:48,276
New businesses, nothing new is spotted.
369
00:30:48,516 --> 00:30:52,896
Jingo Java has moved over to Uncle Lenny's and Vigilance Martial Arts has moved to Publix.
370
00:30:53,376 --> 00:30:55,216
Ace Hardware is getting a lot closer.
371
00:30:55,476 --> 00:30:57,436
Other than that, I haven't really spotted anything else new.
372
00:30:57,816 --> 00:30:59,456
There are a couple of properties still for sale.
373
00:30:59,456 --> 00:31:04,136
Two commercial properties, one on Dragstrip Road and Loblolly Pine Boulevard.
374
00:31:04,656 --> 00:31:13,096
And then for lease, there's another 7610 Dragstrip Road and 1701 and 2332 Fairby Boulevard are for lease.
375
00:31:13,496 --> 00:31:18,376
along with the building behind Dunkin' Donuts that looks like a house where Dos Margaritas is.
376
00:31:19,716 --> 00:31:20,976
So both of those are there.
377
00:31:21,376 --> 00:31:27,816
Looks like there is going to be a new golf game, golf club behind Food Saver at the Old Liberty Church there up on the hill.
378
00:31:28,316 --> 00:31:29,456
And they've posted that.
379
00:31:29,536 --> 00:31:30,896
That's the 1890 Golf Club.
380
00:31:30,996 --> 00:31:32,696
We'll have to see how that goes as they get closer.
381
00:31:32,816 --> 00:31:36,016
You can see them renovating it, and they've got the dumpster up there, so that's exciting.
382
00:31:36,796 --> 00:31:37,316
Farmer's Market.
383
00:31:37,316 --> 00:31:42,996
Make sure you head to the Farmer's Market every weekend, Saturday morning, 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Messick Chiropractic.
384
00:31:42,996 --> 00:31:46,516
and Fairview Fresh Deli Donuts located across the road from Publix.
385
00:31:47,056 --> 00:31:51,996
There's so many good places and great breads and treats and beef and local beef and pork,
386
00:31:52,116 --> 00:31:57,136
local fruits and vegetables, along with hot sausage, fishing lures, and other gifts all time of the year.
387
00:31:58,016 --> 00:32:01,736
Brick and mortar highlight, we're going to talk about Old Dos Margaritas.
388
00:32:02,276 --> 00:32:05,856
This has been one of the staples since 2011 for Mexican food in the town.
389
00:32:06,376 --> 00:32:09,256
It used to be the spot before Cano's, but they're still rocking it.
390
00:32:09,756 --> 00:32:12,796
They are fast and the prices are great, so it's definitely cheaper.
391
00:32:12,996 --> 00:32:17,896
Uh, so it's a great option if you need something fast and good, and you actually want to sit down,

399
00:32:47,876 --> 00:32:54,156
went from 44 to 44 so the same number of jobs are open from last week to this week and that's
400
00:32:54,156 --> 00:33:00,236
basically every store and place that you see up and down the strip has somebody but there's also
401
00:33:00,236 --> 00:33:05,716
a maintenance crew position in the city of and for the buoy park and a police officer position open
402
00:33:05,716 --> 00:33:10,376
and pretty much every other store and then there's other places that you might not see
403
00:33:10,376 --> 00:33:19,636
looks like unity chiropractic um might be in the new um shopping center over by publics
404
00:33:20,496 --> 00:33:28,036
or by uh papa john's i should say because their address is there right now where they've got that
405
00:33:28,036 --> 00:33:34,116
posted so i guess there could be two chiropractors in town eventually one day uh history nugget well
406
00:33:34,116 --> 00:33:40,036
1756 is how far we've made it into our history. The mayor, Andrew Lewis, built Fort Virginia
407
00:33:40,036 --> 00:33:46,516
near Okoda on Cherokee land, 25 miles southeast of Knoxville. Not much time passed before the
408
00:33:46,516 --> 00:33:52,056
Native Americans destroyed that fort because they were definitely in the center of Cherokee
409
00:33:52,056 --> 00:34:10,364
country The English also built Fort Loudoun which is now Von Rowe Tennessee with the intention of keeping the Cherokee loyalty divided The plan failed in 1760 The Cherokee surrounded that fort and finally assassinated by most of the captives
410
00:34:10,844 --> 00:34:16,404
So in spite of the English disaster, the French lost the war and all their leverage in North America
411
00:34:16,404 --> 00:34:23,764
and ceded the territory to the English, who claimed the right to all lands east of the Mississippi River.
412
00:34:23,764 --> 00:34:30,784
and so the battle of the lands goes on upcoming events nothing really to recap since last show
413
00:34:30,784 --> 00:34:36,984
new events that are coming we got the fairview family and community education the fce book club
414
00:34:36,984 --> 00:34:42,024
is going on this is on march 18th and so you can join them there they're linked in at work
415
00:34:42,024 --> 00:34:48,704
but basically they're reading kristen hannah's the woman and they meet at 145 to 150 p.m
416
00:34:48,704 --> 00:34:57,924

417
00:34:57,924 --> 00:35:03,164

419
00:35:09,584 --> 00:35:17,464

425
00:35:46,704 --> 00:35:51,984
posted yet again that they're still cleaning up and they've got contractors. And I think everyone's
426
00:35:51,984 --> 00:35:56,184
frustration level is just getting worse and worse and worse because they want to get back into buoy.
427
00:35:57,524 --> 00:36:03,064
So we'll see that. Obviously, this is also an election year. So right now, between now,

439
00:36:57,064 --> 00:36:58,204
So they've got a really good thing.
440
00:36:58,504 --> 00:36:58,984
School news.
441
00:36:59,524 --> 00:37:03,524
Well, April 3rd, we're kind of waiting for this next, quote, spring holiday,

00:37:03,664 --> 00:37:07,004
but we really know that as Good Friday, and the rest of the world does too.
443
00:37:07,104 --> 00:37:08,984

444
00:37:09,704 --> 00:37:12,464
March 21st, or May 21st, is our last half day of school.

485
00:40:51,444 --> 00:40:56,264
the Fairview High School PTO is looking for volunteers. So they need a president, a vice
486
00:40:56,264 --> 00:41:01,624
president, a secretary, and a treasurer. And I've got that QR code in that link there for you to do
487
00:41:01,624 --> 00:41:07,504
that. So definitely check that out. And then obviously, if you have any students driving,
488
00:41:07,784 --> 00:41:12,724
then yeah, fill out the forms on their faith moment. Well, this week, I wanted to do something
489
00:41:12,724 --> 00:41:16,664
related to the show number, because I just searched if there was some kind of significance
490
00:41:16,664 --> 00:41:23,084
with the number 26. And when I did that, I found out that the sum of these four letters
491
00:41:23,084 --> 00:41:33,424
are 26. And it's the Hebrew word for Yahweh, Y-H-W-H. There's, you know, this article basically
492
00:41:33,424 --> 00:41:41,744
in the Bronze and Iron Age for the religion of ancient Israel and Judah, Yahwism, for the modern
493
00:41:41,744 --> 00:41:48,544
monotheistic conception of Yahweh as the God in Judaism and the God in Christianity.
494
00:41:49,244 --> 00:41:59,604
So the Hebrew synonym is YHWH is also called the Tetrogrammaton, used Yahweh from there.
495
00:41:59,604 --> 00:42:02,464
And I'm going to mess all these words up, but I'm just trying my best here.
496
00:42:02,904 --> 00:42:07,344
The deity's name was written in Paleo-Hebrew, which was those letters.
497
00:42:07,544 --> 00:42:11,064
And then in block script, we have it in the show notes, translated to Yahweh.
498
00:42:11,064 --> 00:42:16,404
Modern scholarship has reached a consistent that it transcribes this to Yahweh.
499
00:42:16,864 --> 00:42:25,984
The certain version forms of Yeho and Yahoo and Yah and Yo appear in the personal names and phrases such as Hallelujah.
500
00:42:27,984 --> 00:42:36,804
This security of this name is well known a commandment of taking the Lord's name in vain,
501
00:42:36,804 --> 00:42:42,484
led to the increasingly strict prohibition of speaking or writing this term at all.
502
00:42:43,044 --> 00:42:46,604
Rabbinic sources suggest that by the second temple period,
503
00:42:47,144 --> 00:42:54,104
the name of God was officially pronounced only once a year by the high priest on the Day of Atonement.
504
00:42:54,564 --> 00:42:58,264
After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE,
505
00:42:58,264 --> 00:43:02,804
the original pronunciation of the name was forgotten entirely.
506
00:43:02,804 --> 00:43:07,584
The four letter name is also commonly known as the Tetragrammaton.
507
00:43:07,924 --> 00:43:10,444
As we've got that is a four letter name.
508
00:43:10,524 --> 00:43:11,984
So kind of interesting.
509
00:43:12,184 --> 00:43:18,444
And the Tetragrammaton is derived from the Hebrew root meaning to be, to exist, is often
510
00:43:18,444 --> 00:43:24,264
referred to as I am the existing one who causes to become.
511
00:43:24,424 --> 00:43:28,504
It signifies God's eternal life and self-existent nature.
512
00:43:30,044 --> 00:43:32,084
And so we've got some of this stuff there.
513
00:43:32,084 --> 00:43:37,884
And like the four letters are Yad, He, Vav, and He.
514
00:43:38,424 --> 00:43:40,524
And that's read right to left.
515
00:43:41,804 --> 00:43:51,124
And so this is basically the way you say this is all from there.
516
00:43:51,624 --> 00:43:55,284
My Lord, Hashem, Adani, and Yahweh.
517
00:43:55,464 --> 00:43:56,944
It's all different ways between there.
518
00:43:57,404 --> 00:44:00,164
So kind of interesting that 26 happened to be related to that.
519
00:44:00,164 --> 00:44:01,964
So I had to definitely call that out.
520
00:44:02,084 --> 00:44:04,464
So donations, nothing new on the donation front.
521
00:44:04,764 --> 00:44:06,104
We're still working on there.
522
00:44:06,224 --> 00:44:10,284
If you can support us, that would be great because right now it kind of feels like, you
523
00:44:10,284 --> 00:44:11,604
know, just talking to the microphone.
524
00:44:11,604 --> 00:44:13,364
And I think some people are listening.
525
00:44:13,464 --> 00:44:16,624
I see downloads, but I don't see any value coming back.
526
00:44:16,804 --> 00:44:19,824
No one's using like the fountain app or anything like that to send a donation.
527
00:44:20,524 --> 00:44:25,944
But we appreciate everyone listening and sharing the podcast and letting people know that, hey,

And this whole podcast is broken into chapters.
530
00:44:30,204 --> 00:44:37,844
