The clock is ticking Farragut businesses have 90 days to register for Farragut’s Business Privilege License without being assessed $15 fee
■
HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com
The clock is ticking for business owners to register their businesses in Farragut. Even with disagreement from one member, Farragut’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved the Town’s new business registration program, which requires all businesses in Farragut to apply for a business license at Town Hall, during its meeting Thursday, July 12. Businesses have 90 days from Friday, July 13, to register without paying a $15 fee. After those 90 days, all businesses open or opening in Town will have to pay a $15 fee. The business license will have to be renewed each year, but the $15 fee is paid only once. If a business owner fails to renew in a timely manner, he would be required to pay penalty fees. “It sounds very innocuous,” Alderman Bob Markli said, “But it has become another hoop, another barrier, another deadline, another fee, another form ... another headache. I see it as another unnecessary burden to people who are try-
ing to do business here. “I want to go on the record as strongly opposing this,” he added. The Board approved the registration program 3-1, with Markli dissenting and Mayor Ralph McGill absent. Town administrator David Smoak said the Town would send out notifications of the 90-day window to businesses for which it has contact information. All businesses in Farragut — including commercial or retail sellers, home-based businesses and offices — will have to register, whether they receive a notification or not. “Ostensibly the purpose is to know what businesses are in Town,” Markli said. “Partly,” Smoak said. Smoak said having a list of the businesses in Town would help Farragut provide services to those businesses. “What we’re saying is ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help you’ ... and I don’t think anyone believes that,” Markli said. Alderman Jeff Elliott asked why the Town couldn’t use an existing database to track businesses. Town recorder Allison Myers said a good

EDC discusses Outlet Drive, ICSC trip
■
HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com
Farragut’s Economic Development Committee heard positive news regarding Town representatives’ recent trip to the International Council of Shopping Centers conference in Las Vegas. “The most gratifying experience there is finding out people know who we are,” Mayor Ralph McGill said. McGill attended ICSC with Town administrator David Smoak, EDC chair Ginny McLain-Tate and Farragut
Business Alliance president David Purvis. “We’re getting a lot of national talk,” Purvis said. Much of that talk is in reference to Turkey Creek, which stretches across Farragut and City of Knoxville borders, and the recent purchase of a portion of the shopping and lifestyle center. “The reputation Turkey Creek has is really pretty amazing,” McLain-Tate said. Smoak said Farragut representatives met with local and national retailers and developers. When asked, he declined to
give specific names. “We were speed recruiting,” McLain-Tate said. In a short meeting, EDC members also discussed the ongoing work on Outlet Drive, which is being extended so it stretches from Lovell Road to Campbell Station Road. Alderman Bob Markli said he was worried the road would be called “Outlets Drive Extension,” and wondered if the Town could request it get a different name. “Couldn’t we name it the Ralph McGill Memorial
“Understand how important health insurance is to our employees,” Curry told Farragut’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen during a workshop in May. The Town currently pays 100 percent of health insurance costs for its employees and their dependents. “In the private sector, that is practically unheard of,” Alderman Ron Honken said. Curry presented the Board several options to alter the current health insurance plan, all of which would result in cost savings of some kind. Because the discussion was held during a workshop, no vote
was taken, but the Board seemed to support a change that would keep Town employees in their current network, but which would change prescription copays and begin a health reimbursement account. Prescription copays would become $10 for generics, $35 for preferred and $50 for non-preferred prescriptions. “Encouraging employees to go to generic is good for everybody,” Curry said. Through the health reimbursement account, deductibles would increase, but the Town pays them all.
BOMA denies extra sign request Town wrangles lower insurance rate hike ■

Farragut’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen unanimously denied a request to allow more exterior wall signs on an office building off Parkside Drive during its meeting Thursday, July 12. “These issues are best left up to the owner of the building. If we allow it to expand it will eventually become the gift that keeps on giving,” Alderman Ron Honken said. The Board decided not to allow the Parkside Plaza office building (pictured above) to have three wall signs, rather
than two, which it currently has. “This is the second step down that slippery slope,” Farragut Community Development director Ruth Hawk said of allowing three signs. The building already is allowed two wall signs, more than a typical office or commercial building in Town. “It would be best to leave it up to the landlord,” Hawk said of deciding which office building tenants are allowed wall signs and which are not. The ordinance amendment was unanimously denied with Mayor Ralph McGill absent. See SIGN on Page 3A

An over-utilization of Farragut’s health insurance program last year had the Town scrambling to find ways to cut an initial rate hike of more than 21 percent. Human resources manager Janet Curry said she and the Town’s health insurance broker were able to get the increase down to 13 percent through negotiations and a bidding process. But to get the Town’s Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance down to a more manageable level, more changes are needed.

Longhorn restaurant approved for Parkside Drive ■
HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com
A Longhorn Steakhouse could be open in Farragut by December. Farragut Municipal Planning Commission unanimously approved a site plan for the restaurant during its meeting Thursday, May 17. Longhorn will locate at 11656 Parkside Drive, near the planned Publix. “Welcome to our community,” Mayor Ralph McGill told representatives of Darden Restaurants. FMPC asked Longhorn to construct a sidewalk between two entrance drives on its property with the hopes of connecting that sidewalk to another adjacent lot, which is expected to

develop in the future. Commissioner Noah Myers thanked Longhorn for installing two bicycle racks at the restaurant as well, more than what Farragut requires. “They’re actually providing a bike rack out front for customers and another for employees,” community development director Ruth Hawk said. “We appreciate that,” Myers said. Construction on the restaurant should begin soon and could be completed by the end of the year, with a potential opening date in December. FMPC also unanimously approved a site plan for a new hotel, a Fairfield Inn & Suites at the corner of Campbell Station Road and Snyder Road. that have been in existence for a long time, nor to change road names at intersections — say, if Farragut’s end of the road had one name and Knoxville’s had another. “There’s always an obstacle of some kind, so what we can do is see what the obstacle is ... we don’t just need to say “We can’t do it because,’” Jim Holladay said. “I think that’s something we ought to really look at,” Markli said.
Alderman Ron Honken said he felt the business license would provide value to businesses. “We need to find a way to create value from this thing,” he said. Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche, who ran the meeting in McGill’s absence, said she believed the 90-day window was fair to current business owners.

The hotel will sit in front of an existing Holiday Inn Express. “This is a new prototype design style for the hotel,” Hawk told commissioners. The four-story hotel will have a modern look, mixing cultured stone, cement board and EFIS, essentially a synthetic stucco. “It’s a beautiful building,” Alderman Ron Honken said. Vision Hospitality Group estimated the hotel would take nine months to construct, largely due to extensive grading necessary on the property.
The hotel entrance drive will connect to the new Snyder Road, which is being realigned as part of the Outlet Drive extension project, which will extend Outlet from Lovell Road to Campbell Station. As part of the new hotel’s construction, the Holiday Inn Express will lose its access to Campbell Station, instead sharing an access drive to Snyder with Fairfield Inn & Suites. “It will all be coordinated as part of the overall construction,” Hawk said.
Myers asked Hawk about an “unconventional” drainage system on the site. “There is no onsite detention. It is going over to [a] sinkhole,” Hawk said. The sinkhole sits between the current Snyder Road and the new Snyder. “It’s unusual for us to see this. I understand the concept of it, it’s just that I don’t know if we’ve ever approved one where we discharged straight into a sinkhole in some time,” Myers said.
Rate
adopted with the fiscal year 2013 budget, would mean the Town would pay more than 5 percent less than what it currently pays. Farragut’s current monthly health insurance rate is $57,124.28. With the changes, it would become $54,049.92. Honken said health insurance seemed to be taking up about 8
percent of Farragut’s annual budget, and the time eventually would come when the Town wouldn’t be able to pay 100 percent. Curry agreed, but said small changes are best to start with. “Unless it has to be dramatic, do as little as you can that’s meaningful,” she said.

Farragut’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen created the Town’s first Business Privilege License at its meeting Thursday, July 12. The license requirement went into effect Friday, July 13. All businesses — commercial or retail sellers, home-based businesses and offices — are required to pay a $15 fee and obtain a license. There is a 90-day fee-free period to obtain a license for all businesses that began July 13. There is a fine for non-compliance. The fine is 1 percent of the license fee (minimum fine $10) assessed each 30 days. The license will have to be renewed each year or a new application would have to be filed and $15 fee paid. Town leaders say the license will help Farragut identify businesses operating within the Town — for accurate Sales Tax collecting — and provide services to those businesses. Those services have yet to be enumerated. We do know the Town does not provide police, fire, trash or sewage treatment for businesses or any citizen. For the fee, Town leaders should return to businesses some services, not just a fee to help collect Sales Tax.

letterstotheeditor Hassle holding business back The owners of Archer’s BBQ scathing comments in farragutpress on why he intends to relocate his business out of Farragut just down the road to Bearden are telling. The recent attempt to place new poorly written codes on metal buildings as a reaction to Costco is also telling. It seems to me at times BOMA is treating our town like their own personal game of SimCity. BOMA may point to the listing of the Town as a business-friendly city by various organizations as justification for the continued creation of even more poorly thought out codes and regulations. However, I would argue that the success of Farragut business owners has occurred in spite of these hassles, not because of these hassles. Sam Hilton Farragut

I’ve heard that water in bottles can be damaged in the heat of your car. The cans seemed like a good idea. So if anyone knows the name of the water company putting their water in cans, I wonder if they could write in. Thank you very much. • Yes, I wondered if anyone has posted a police officer across the street from McDonald’s and the Firestone store where everybody, but everybody, turns left out of that driveway where it has a big sign posted that says “No left turn”

Town of Farragut has no police force and no means to enforce traffic laws. • I noticed in the farragutpress this week that the man who owns Archer’s Barbecue is taking the business to Bearden and one of his reasons was Farragut doesn’t allow food trucks. Food trucks are all the rage all over the U.S. Does Farragut really ban them, or did Archer’s truck not pass code or something? Several other busi-

I saw a food truck operating on Concord Road today (Wednesday, July 11) at the old closed up business just before getting to the railroad overpass near Northshore roundabout. Was he operating illegally in plain sight?

Cobble leading Hispanic Chamber ■
HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com
Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of East Tennessee has a new director and is in the process of searching for a base of operations. HCCET, which closed its office in Farragut at the end of last year, welcomed new director and COO Marilyn Cobble in May. “I’m really happy to be here. We’ve got a lot going on. It’s a great Chamber with pretty timely issues for the Hispanic business community,” Cobble said. She recently worked for Tennessee Small Business Development Center and served on HCCET’s board of directors. Cobble filled a spot vacated by HCCET’s previous, now-retired director, Luis Velasquez.
Cobble
“I’m not Hispanic. It’s really just a matter of who can run the office and continue promoting our mission in the most effective way,” Cobble said. Cobble said the HCCET included small and large busi-
nesses, with members of all nationalities. “The Chamber has actually been around since 2005,” Cobble said. “It’s a very diverse group; it’s a little bit different,” she added. According to Cobble, HCCET’s mission is “to promote Hispanicowned businesses and to help them. “And also, a big part of our mission is to help other companies that are trying to reach that growing Hispanic market. A lot of local companies engage with us for those reasons, and also governmental entities because they’re looking for more diversity in their contracting and things like that,” she added. The Hispanic Chamber holds monthly networkings in order to promote member businesses and
the business community at large. HCCET also provides educational opportunities and engages the community in timely issues related to the Hispanic community. “The biggest need I see right now is staffing, staffing companies, and companies that are looking for diversity and bilingual [skills] in their staffing,” Cobble said. “That seems to be a very big need right now,” she added. The Hispanic Chamber also weighs in on controversies regarding discrimination, particularly against businesses with Hispanic ties. “We try to weigh in and give our opinion as far as what needs to be done, so businesses aren’t discriminated against and they See HCCET on Page 8A

Financial Advisor
The investment world can be complex — so you may not want to navigate it alone. But when it comes to getting professional advice, you certainly have an abundance of choices. How can you know which approach is right for you? The answer depends, to a large extent, on how you choose to work with a qualified financial advisor — someone with the training and experience to help you work toward your financial goals. When you work with a financial advisor, he or she will analyze your financial situation — your income, current assets, family status and short- and long-term investment goals, such as helping pay for your children’s (or grandchildren’s) college education and attaining a comfortable retirement. You can choose different ways of working with a financial advisor — and a deciding factor may be how “hands on” you want to be with your investment strategy. To illustrate this concept, let’s look at two common ways investors interact with financial advisors: Taking recommendations and making choices — After evaluating your financial situation, goals, risk tolerance and time horizon, your financial advisor can recommend appropriate investments. Over time, your financial advisor will communicate with you regularly to keep track of changes in your life and to suggest any changes you may need to make in your portfolio. Of course, you have the final say in accepting or rejecting these recommendations, which is why this method is considered a hands-on way to invest. Investing through a managed account
Are You a "Hands-on" Investor? — In this situation, your financial advisor will help you create, implement and refine your long-term financial strategy, but the money managers will make the daily investment decisions, relying on a variety of criteria pertaining to your situation. For example, if your portfolio has become overweighted in a specific asset class, such as stocks or bonds, and is no longer aligned with your goals, it may automatically be brought back into bal ance. So which method of investing is better for you? There’s really no one right answer for everyone. If you’re the sort of person who likes to make all your own decisions, then you might be better off following the hands-on approach with your financial advisor. On the other hand, if you are particularly busy and just don’t feel you have the time to be actively involved with dayto-day investment decisions, you might want to consider a managed account. In any case, you’ll want to be comfortable with the method of investing that you’ve chosen. So do your homework beforehand. Whether you’re interested in a hands-on relationship or a hands-off approach, you still need to interview several financial advisors to find one who has worked with people in your situation and who seems genuinely interested in helping you. During these interviews, make sure you understand everything related to working with a financial advisor — the fees involved, the way decisions will be communicated to you if you choose a managed account, and so on. Deciding how you want to invest is your first step in working toward your financial goals — so make the choice that’s right for you.

411 ON MAN'S BEST FRIEND Things to consider before adopting a dog!
SAVE A LIFE
There may be no better incentive to adoption than knowing you are saving the life of a dog that would probably be on its way to being destroyed.
SAVE MONEY Purchasing a pet can cost a substantial amount of money, depending on the breed. When adopting a pet, modest fees help shelters mitigate the cost of feeding, housing and providing healthcare for shelter animals.
GET A DOG THAT'S ALREADY TRAINED Older dogs may not need the same amount of preliminary training that can make puppies frustrating. Older dogs may have outgrown boisterous behaviors, making them ideal for quiet households.

Beat rain, sand Town volleyball players willing to tackle elements
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
While a miniature sandstorm caused postponement of all but two town of Farragut Volleyball Intermediate League games July 5, hard rain and occasionally strong wind failed to do the same one week later. As they prepared to tackle the elements during their weekly Thursday matches July 12, members of three Intermediate League teams spoke about the challenges — or the fun. Dave Doering of Scared Hitless, whose second-place East Division team improved to 4-1 after blanking Clayton in straight games 3-0, said the rain “is not too bad if there’s no wind or lighting or anything. “I do have a problem setting in [rain],” Doering added. “It makes a bigger deal to me setting and passing with a wet ball. You definitely get more conservative. Be more sure the ball goes over the net and less being fancy. “Hitting the ball makes it harder, especially when the lights come on, all you see are the raindrops.” Shawn Steben of Dig Deep, whose team later lost in straight games to Just Dig It, said about the rain, “I don’t care, I’m prepared. I’ve got a waterproof jacket and long sleeves ... and Vaseline on my legs. I’m ready to go.” The Vaseline “just keeps me a little warmer.”

Matt Ewing of Clayton sets the ball versus Scared Hitless during rainy July 12 Town Volleyball play.
However, “It definitely changes my game,” she added. “If I’m looking up to see the ball, the rain’s going to get on my glasses. That’s why I usually wear a hat.” Charles Marsh of Dig Deep said, “I love it, that way I don’t have to worry about trying to keep cool. It doesn’t bore me.”
Chris Hughes of Dig Deep said “the rain doesn’t bother me a bit.” Comparing rain to the July 5 mini sandstorm she played in, “the sand in your eyes isn’t fun. It was horrible,” Hughes added. “You couldn’t prepare for where the ball was.” Sara Crooke with Clayton said despite the rain and wetness,
“I’m sure I’ll be diving all over in the sand still. Totally a competitor.” Matt Ewing of Clayton said playing in the rain “is an irritation, it’s not fun.” However, concerning kills at the net, “The sand’s packed down, so you should be able to get a little more jumping.”

Never mind that Lorena Harvey never married, never had any children and never drove a vehicle. This former Farragut Primary School teacher who taught more than 30 years, celebrating her 104th birthday Thursday afternoon, July 5, was a mother figure
who inspired Helen Kirby Wright into teaching. “She’s the reason I become a teacher myself, she made that much of an impact,” said Wright, a teacher “with Knox County in a special alternative school” who was taught by Lorena as a firstgrader then a third-grader. “I would go home and play school.” Wright joined a full room of Lorena’s well wishers in Summit

Rain barrels help environment, provide drought relief water

Limiting stormwater runoff helps prevent erosion and helps ensure cleaner drinking water. Rain barrels are one tool toward making that happen. That’s according to Mike Gaugler, stormwater project manager for Fort Loudoun Lake Association, keynote speaker during The Rainy Day Brush Off 2012, town of Farragut’s promotion of rain barrel use to reduce residential and business rainfall runoff. Including a rain barrel assembly and operation workshop for audience members purchasing a 55-gallon barrel for $30, Brush Off was held May 19 in Town Hall. “The idea in the past was, ‘I’ve got rainwater, that’s bad. I want it gone.’ So the process was to get that water away from your property as fast as possible,” Gaugler said to an audience of about 30. “If we can keep it on your property, that's great.” Jason Scott, town of Farragut stormwater coordinator, said rain
barrel usage “takes some stress off of the streams and also reduces some of the pollutants that run into streams. Contributing to flood control and water quality.” “You're still going to have runoff from your property, but it's at a much slower rate,” he added, emphasizing that a 500-gallon runoff would take 24 hours instead of only 15 minutes. “That’s much different.” Gaugler said about the barrels, “All you're doing is you're taking your [guttering] downspout and you're connecting to a rain barrel. In this case it's a 55-gallon drum,” roughly the amount of water if you filled your bathtub to capacity. Features include an overflow valve and spigot. Non-workshop barrels sold by the town start at $60, Scott said. During a recent drought, “We've actually had a member of our organization, he was using about a hundred gallons a week to fill up his swimming pool a couple of years ago,” Gaugler said. “While See BARRELS on Page 5B

his neighbors weren't using their swimming pool, his was full. And he wasn’t in non-compliance with the municipality. “Anything that you use a hose [municipal water] for, you can use rainwater for,” Gaugler added. “For bird baths, to wash your car, to water your vegetable garden, flower garden, you name it.” Also, rainwater has a lower ph level — different chemicals — versus tap water, making it easier for plants to process. “We have some people who put three, four, five, six on and use them all,” Gaugler said. To calculate how many rain barrels you could make use of, “For every 200-square feet of roof — not square footage of your house — you can use a rain barrel,” Gaugler said. “The good thing about these rain barrels, they actually pay for themselves,” Gaugler added. Scott said rain barrel use in Farragut “isn't widely adopted, you do see it intermittently. We've been distributing barrels for several years through our Rainy Day Brush Off Program.” Scott said the Town “currently is revising our regulations” toward requiring new businesses to have a stormwater collection process in place that might

12U Farragut Dirt Dobbers 2000 took second place in ISA June Jam Tournament held at Bradley County Recreational Park in Cleveland Saturday, June 9. Team players, listed in no order, are Olivia Baker, Kassidy Heard, Emili Goodman, Kayla Gillis, Riley McFall, Maddie Senzel, Jocelyn Cantrell, Katelyn Cantrell, Addison Reagan and Kelsey Reagan. Head coach Joel Reagan is joined by assistant coaches Jeff Yarber and Scott Heard. Not pictured are team members Taylor Pratts and Annie Cole and assistant coaches Ben Cantrell, Lisa Cole and Chris Pratts.
Saying she’s kept in constant contact with Lorena through the years, Wright added she still considers Lorena “a second mom.” Gina Windle, “a friend who takes care of all of her business,” said Lorena “was my son’s firstgrade teacher” in the late 60s.” “The children loved her.” About George Windle, now 49, “He was a nice little boy,” Lorena recalled, adding that Gina “is a mighty good person.” “When they wanted their teeth pulled, and they were in the second grade, they would come back to Miss Harvey,” Windle said. “She has always been a very good person, she's kind.”
About teaching, “I really enjoyed it,” Lorena said. “I taught the first through the eighth-[grade].” Whenever visitors have children along, “She thinks they’re her students and she wants them to sit right down and talk to her,” said Rochelle Johnson, Summit View activity director. Enjoying the crowd of wellwishers, “It makes me feel good,” Lorena said. “I just can't say thank you enough. The crowd makes me happy.” At least two Summit View residents called out during the ceremony that Lorena “has a family, it's us” and “we’re her family.” Lorena said her father, Sam Harvey, “Did the most to get rock put on the road and getting it
built” that eventually became Harvey Road. Johnson added the Harveys “had the road made back to their house. They traveled horse and buggy for the longest time.” “She'll tell you she's never driven a car. He daddy told her she didn't need to.” However, “I bought a vehicle. It was just a little Ford is all I know,” Lorena said. Windle said Lorena was encouraged to “take her car back” because “her father and her brother thought women shouldn't drive.” “They wanted to do all the driving,” Lorena added. “Momma [Clara Harvey] never cared too much about driving.”

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
