Water line break closes Brooklawn ■
HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com
Quick response times averted an environmental catastrophe Friday afternoon, July 27, at Brooklawn Street in Farragut. A broken water line gushing about 5,000 gallons of water per minute washed out a large void along Brooklawn Street near Kroger Marketplace, creating a mudslide down the road and closing Brooklawn for nearly nine hours. “Things like that don’t happen often, but when they do, they happen big,” said Jason Scott, Farragut stormwater coordinator. Scott praised First Utility District’s quick response to the line break — which resulted from the cap end of a “stub out line” bursting — and credited that response with keeping Farragut’s waterways safe. “By the time I got out there, they’d already cut the water to the break,” Scott said. Initial plans to contain the silt flow and clean up the site were turned on their heads when a sudden downpour began pushing the mud further toward storm drains and protected wetlands across Campbell Station Road. “Because it rained all of a sudden and out of nowhere, very heavily, it started washing it all into the storm system. We had to figure out what to do with the detention basin because that’s essentially the last stop before it crosses the road and gets into
the wetlands area,” Scott said. Scott and FUD crews protected storm sewers from the deluge of mud with hay bales and plugged the detention basin to prevent sediment from leaving it. “It was a big mess,” Scott said. The Town’s waterways — including Turkey Creek and Little Turkey Creek — are considered impaired, both by sedimentation and habitat alteration. “Sediment is the Town’s No. 1 cause of impairment, so needless to say, an explosion of sediment would be a very bad thing,” Scott said. “It was really important when that happened that we catch it,” he added. Sediment does more than muddy water; sediment can carry bacteria and debris. Too much sediment can change nutrients in the water, which can create algae overgrowth and kill wildlife. “In terms of environmental damage, I feel like we couldn’t have responded much faster,” Scott said, adding he’d observed some sediment stain at the discharge pipe at the wetlands Monday morning, but it was minimal. “Because we caught it so early I really feel like we prevented the vast majority, or all of it, from impacting our natural resources. It was kind of a weird circumstance and it was really See WATER on Page 3A
LCUB to lower rates ■
HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com
Lenoir City Utilities Board has announced a rate reduction for all classes of its electrical customers, as well as expected continued reductions for the next five years. “LCUB, through our longrange planning, elected to pay off $15.5 million of remaining electrical debt, which had roughly a 5 percent interest rate over the next 10 years. The interest we’ll be saving over the next 10 years is roughly $3.7 million,” LCUB general manager Shannon Littleton said. The rate reduction comes in part as a result of paying off that debt and no longer having the interest payment burdens. LCUB’s Board approved the rate reduction at a special-called meeting Monday, July 30. About 60,000 LCUB electrical customers will see a combined $256,847 savings this year. “That may not be a significant amount in year one for a utility bill, among 60,000 people. But
that’s an initial step for us,” Littleton said. “It’s not going to be much. It will not be very noticeable on a monthly bill, but yearly it may be noticeable. What I’m hoping will happen is that over a couple of years we’ll be able to accomplish a noticeable difference on a utility bill,” he added. Littleton said he hopes the rate reduction will remain in place each of the next five years, resulting in a total savings to customers over that time of $1,284,235. “LCUB more than likely will not have a rate increase over the next five years. Now, TVA may have increases along the way, but LCUB will not,” Littleton said. Aside from debt repayment, Littleton said the rate reduction also is due to internal efficiency changes, voltage regulations and controls and the Utility’s recent switch to time-of-use billing and its new wholesale rate from TVA. “It all starts adding up over See LCUB on Page 5A
Town officials closed Brooklawn Street, which connects Kingston Pike and Campbell Station Road, for nearly nine hours following a water line eruption that poured about 100,000 gallons of water and mud onto the road and into a detention basin located on the road’s south side.
Woody Road house fire claims two lives ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
A Rural Metro Fire Department battalion chief said it was “a couple of years ago” that inhabitants of a home just outside of Farragut escaped with their lives, recalling that RMFD responded to a fire at 10820 Woody Drive near Canton Hollow Road. But following another fire at the same home sometime after 10 p.m. Sunday night, July 29, John Imgrund, 85, and his son, David Imgrund, 44, died. “Autopsies of the two victims in a house fire Sunday night show that they died from smoke inhalation. The two lived at the house,” said Martha Dooley,
Knox County Sheriff’s Office spokewoman, in a press release Tuesday morning. “Fire investigators say the fire started in the northeast bedroom, which was used as a den. They said the room contained a lot of electronics,” Dooley added. “They’re not sure what caused the fire, but have sent samples from the blaze to the TBI lab for further determination. “The house had at least one smoke detector, but there’s no way to tell if it was working because it was destroyed in the blaze.” Jeff Devlin, RMFD battalion chief, said “a passerby” probably was first to call 911 “around 10:20, 10:25 [p.m.].” An earlier Dooley release stat-
ed, “David Roberts told officers that he called 911 when he saw the house on fire and ran to knock on the door and yelled several times for someone to come out. No one responded. Two people were found inside and pronounced dead at the scene.” Devlin was on scene as the charred and gutted one-story house, about 1,600 square feet by his estimation, was combed over by Knox County Fire Prevention Bureau Investigation Unit authorities late Monday morning. “They certainly lived here a while. We’ve been here before,” Devlin added without divulging any details about the previous See FIRE on Page 3A
Public Market closes doors July 29
■
HEATHER BECK hbeck@farragutpress.com
Turkey Creek Public Market has closed its doors amid “going out of business” fanfare little less than a year after opening. Vendors were scarce Saturday, July 28, many choosing not to return for the Market’s closing weekend after being given only a week’s notice that they would have to leave. Market spokeswoman Virginia Adams said she was given no reason for the building’s closure, but that vendors had until Aug. 5 to remove their booths and wares.
“We are unaware of the plans for the building,” Adams said. She confirmed the Market was not shutting down for legal reasons, nor had the building been sold. However, a letter provided to vendors Sunday, July 22, said: “We regret that we could not give you more advance notice of this decision, but we were making every effort possible to continue with business until circumstances would no longer allow.” The letter is signed “Turkey Creek Public Market Management.” Some Public Market vendors took exception to management’s
decision to advertise the closing weekend as a “Going Out of Business Sale,” saying the wording was misleading. Donna McNeilly of TP Gold said her business was not going under — she still sold products at independent pharmacies and elsewhere. “They didn’t close us down. They shut us out of the building,” she said. The letter challenged vendors to “participate with us in the Sale having a positive attitude and your head held high.” Some vendors, such as See MARKET on Page 3A

FUD responds to Brooklawn line break

Knox County Fire Prevention Bureau Investigation Unit authorities comb over the charred and gutted remains of this house at 10820 Woody Drive late Monday morning, July 30, after a fire the night before claimed two lives.

fire. “It was a long time ago.” Public records indicate the home’s owner is Lisa G. Jones. Meanwhile, an arrest was made at the scene Sunday night according to a Knox County Sheriff’s Office report. Ashley Carter, 36, “was arrested for disorderly conduct when she refused to leave the scene of the fire. According to the incident report, a large group had gathered close to the emergency equipment and were instructed to move and told the location they could gather,” Dooley said in summarizing the report. Carter “stopped walking and told the officer to ‘relax.’ The officer explained the seriousness
of the situation and told her to leave,” Dooley added. “She refused and cursed the officers. She was taken into custody for refusal to disperse from the scene of the fire when instructed to do so.” The investigation continues. “Knox County Sheriff’s Office detectives from Major Crimes and Forensics responded to 10820 Woody Road shortly after 10 p.m. Their investigation along with the [Knox County] Fire Marshall is continuing,” Dooley said. Devlin added, “The first fire trucks were here within four or five minutes. At that point there was fire throughout a lot of the home. … We had the fire under control relatively quickly.”

A burst water line closed Brooklawn Street for nine hours and created a mudslide that reached Campbell Station Road Friday afternoon, July 27. “They had a ...water line that was tee’d off to go to a future building, on the opposite side of the Kroger shopping center, [and] apparently the cap came off. It created quite a mess,” said Darryl Smith, Farragut engineer. That “mess” included nearly 5,000 gallons of water gushing

They said they were grateful for the boost the Market had given them. “The Market has been a launching pad for small businesses,” Keirn said.

First Utility District crews responded within 20 to 30 minutes of the line break, FUD assistant manager Wayne Watson said. All in all, FUD lost about 100,000 gallons of water Friday afternoon. “You’ve got a tremendous amount of water there ... a straight line would flow probably 4,000 or 5,000 gallons a minute,
just tremendous water under tremendous pressure,” Watson said. In fact, the pressure from water flowing from the end of that stub-out line — which was buried six feet underground — blew a 20-foot wide hole in the ground. “It’s a lot of water ... and it immediately blows all that dirt up above it. That hole might have been 20 feet across,” Watson said. First Utility District was

short notice they’d been given of the closure. But mostly, vendors mourned the loss of customers and the family-like atmosphere of the Market. “I’ll figure it out. It’s sad that it closed because of all the people I’ve met. We’ve become like a family,” said Jetta Boone, who owns a self-named fashion design business. “We were like one big family here. We were doing so well and our worlds are just shattered,” McNeilly said. “We just hope God opens a new door for us. The hardest part is leaving all our friends.”
The Public Market, which opened in August 2011, was touted as a public market akin to Pike Place in Seattle, but was ultimately marketed as an upscale flea market. It was situated in the former Outlets Unlimited Mall, which had sat largely vacant for about 15 years. Developer Charles Atchley, along with Turkey Creek Land Partners principal John Turley, spent millions of dollars to bring the building and property up to code. Neither Atchley nor Turley returned phone calls seeking comment.

FUD From page 3A
unsure of what might have caused the cap to blow off the stub-out line, but Watson said it was conceivable developers who laid the line didn’t tighten the valve properly. Water lines also tend to be pumping under higher pressure during summer months. “It’s irrigation season and pressures are up in the system, and that can contribute to it. There weren’t any activities or construction going on in the area. So the valve wasn’t attached properly, that’s probably half of it, and we’re just pumping at high pressures right now,” Watson said. He didn’t have rough estimates for the cost of the burst line for FUD, but said the economics of the water loss would be minimal: mostly lost money spent on chemicals and electricity. Most of First Utility’s costs to fix the leak would be for employ-

The department now is operating debt-free. “I can think back several years ago when we were in a dilemma, when we were maybe going to exceed our debt restrictions per our charter. ... And LCUB decid-
ee salaries for crews who worked on the site. Friday afternoon, crews turned off water at valves on either side of the break, meaning no business along the road lost water service and all were able to remain open. Traffic, however, was diverted from the Campbell Station entrance of Brooklawn for nearly nine hours. Some concerns that the mudslide may have reached under the sidewalk or under Brooklawn turned out to be unfounded, Smith and Watson said. “There is no washout ... under the sidewalk or under the road. Considering everything, I think they did a pretty good job cleaning up things,” Smith said. After stopping the water flow, First Utility personnel focused on cleanup Friday, finally reopening Brooklawn Street about 9 p.m. Crews were back out Saturday morning to replace the broken line, fill in the soil washout and clear sidewalks and roads of remaining mud. ed to, among other things, to go along with rate increases from TVA and do other things that helped us,” Littleton said. “But I think more than anything, we pulled up the bootstraps internally. The employees have not had a raise, and have actually had a decrease in benefits the last two years. A lot has went into this. “I think it’s big news,” he added.

A group of Farragut High School grads returned to town Tuesday, July 10, celebrating accomplishments each of them has made as entrepreneurs. Valerie Guess, Brooke Thurman, Brian Davis, Ray Dover, Blake Denny, Haley Evans, Ty Pattison and Laura Braden caught up with each other and shared laughs as the group gathered at FHS. “Farragut’s high standards in academics helped me learn how to challenge myself and work hard to achieve my goals,” said Pattison, a 1997 graduate and coowner of The Happy Envelope and Big Little Ink. The Happy Envelope is a graphic design studio in downtown Knoxville, specializing in invitations and announcements. Big Little Ink is a curated stationary-specific website set to launch in September. Haley Evans, owner of Whimsy Designs and a 1995 FHS grad, said, “I have always had a creative side and have been painting anything I could get my hands on for as long as I can remember.” Whimsy Designs provides custom-painted furniture, canvases and wall art. Valerie Guess, FHS Class of 1999, recently opened her second Val’s Boutique location,

adding a Farragut shop to her spot in Bearden. She said it’s important to support local business owners. In fact, Guess makes a point to offer items made by local entrepreneurs when possible, including handcrafted picture frames by Kohlston Designs, owned by locals Staci Kohlbusch and Kelly Huddleston, and jewelry by Curry Campbell, another local. Fellow Class of ’99 member Brooke Thurman founded Banana Punch Books LLC in 2009 with Cara Cardell, another FHS ’99 grad. “We wrote ‘More Sisters in Mommy’s Family’ to celebrate sisterhood and the positive aspects of Greek life,” after joining Alpha Omicron Pi in college, Thurman said. “FHS has some great programs that definitely can become applicable to a professional life.

think my involvement in organizations such as Future Business Leaders of America, Health Occupations Students of America and DECA spurred my interest in business and provided a good foundation for growth,” Thurman said. Blake Denny, a 2005 graduate, recently expanded his Unlimited Training Systems from a 400square-foot studio to a 4,000square-foot warehouse. “I took a number of AP classes while at Farragut, and if anything, those classes ... helped me to understand the simple but true idea that sometimes you just plain must put in more work and difficult hours to make it pay off in the end,” Denny said. Ray Dover graduated from Farragut in 2000, starting Southeastern Technology Consultants in 2011 with partner John Sharpe. “We find job opportunities for IT professionals on a contract, contract-to-hire, and full-time basis,” Dover said. “The fact that [Farragut is] a large public school meant that we had the opportunity to interact with many different types of people — and with the fact that business is all about relationships — that gave us a foundation in how to communicate in different situations. “It’s definitely paramount when you’re in the people business,” Dover said. Laura Braden owns Braden Strategies, a public affairs firm providing clients with public relations, events, social media and crisis communications counsel and strategy. “I got motivated and focused on my career in college, but Farragut definitely served as a safe and dynamic place to learn and grow,” she said.

People always ask, what is the difference between Thai and Chinese food? China, where Thais are believed to have originated, certainly provides a significant amount of ingredients. However, Thais have a remarkable ability to take foreign aspects and alter them, making them uniquely Thai. Ideally a Thai meal offers a combination of flavors: sweet, hot, sour, salty and bitter. Thai cooking strives for a balance of these flavors as well as a balance of texture and color. With over twenty-five distinct flavor combinations. Thai literally picks up where most Asian food leaves off. In an effort to ensure
freshness and quality Little Bangkok cultivates many of their own spices, including chili peppers and basil from hard to find Thai seedlings. Rather than using generic corn starch thickened sauces it is a combination of these herbs and spices that pack Thai food with so much flavor. At Little Bangkok, you are offered an experience with truly authentic Thai and other Asian cuisine. Conveniently located at the corner of North Campbell Station road and Grigsby Chapel road behind Walgreens. It is easy to stop by and eat at the restaurant, on the lovely patio or order takeout. Enjoy!

‘Sons’ have fun, win ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress
When your championship “trophy” is a handful of water bottles, your ego for being No. 1 likely isn’t spinning out of control. But within town of Farragut’s Recreational Volleyball League circles, Sons of Beaches has put together a nice string of championship success dating back to 2010. Its latest title came during summer tourney action, besting a 13-team field and defeating Somewhat Hot 30-20 in the Tuesday Rec League championship game July 17 at Mayor Bob Leonard Park. Among Spring, Summer and Fall League tournaments the past three years, “We won summer this year, summer last year and one the year before that,” said Robert Stacy, one of six Sons players in this tourney, whose top-seeded team went 30. “We've been playing together out here at least four seasons … we've been friends for a while,” Stacy added. “We used to be known as the Sand Pipers” for one season, during which they captured one other championship. As for success in smaller numbers, “We won regular season with five people,” Stacy added about himself and teammates Alan Bush, Joy Harris, Erin Massman and Jim Clowers. Jamie Petrie played during the tournament. Clowers, Harris and Stacy go back to the Sand Piper days. Bush has been along for all Sons of Beaches championship tournaments. “And then Erin came this last year,” Harris said. Harris, a former Central High School volleyball middle spiker, added, “I love to get out and

Else in semifinal action. Meanwhile, Somewhat Hot, a No. 2 seed, rallied from a 28-24 deficit to beat GVBC (No. 3 seed) in the other semifinal.
That came less than an hour after GVBC rallied from a 27-19 deficit in the quarterfinals to edge Sand Tigers 30-28.

“The real opportunity was when Jeff Hall was injured in January of ’96,” said Petty, owner of Concord Chiropractic Clinic in Farragut since December 1986, who will be personal chiropractor in London for ex-UT Olympian gold medalist Justin Gatlin (100meter dash) and DeeDee Trotter (400-meter dash and 4 X 400

Financial Tips for Newly Single Women
Within a marriage, a man and a woman’s financial circumstances are generally pretty much equal. But if a divorce occurs, the woman’s situation tends to be somewhat more challenging than that of her ex-spouse. And that’s why, during this major life transition, you may want to meet with a professional financial advisor to go over your spending needs and your cash flow, so that you know what you absolutely need today — and how you can plan for tomorrow. Before we get into some possible steps you can take, let’s look at some of the reasons that women may fare worse than men, financially speaking, following a divorce: • Lower income — The average woman’s family income drops by 37% after divorce, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In many cases, divorce exacerbates a situation in which women were already trailing men in earnings. In fact, women still only earn 77 cents for each dollar earned by men, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. • Smaller retirement accounts — The average balance on women’s defined contribution plans (such as 401(k) plans) is only 60% of men’s average balances, according to LIMRA, a financial services research organization. Of course, “averages” are just that — averages. But whether you recognize yourself in the above numbers or not, consider these suggestions: • Create an emergency fund. Try to put six months’ to a year’s worth of living expenses in a liquid account. Once you’ve established this emergency fund, you won’t have to dip into longterm investments to pay for unexpected costs, such as an expensive car repair, a
new furnace or a large medical bill. • Contribute as much as you can afford to your retirement accounts. Even if you will eventually receive some of your ex-spouse’s retirement funds, you need to take full advantage of your own savings opportunities — because it’s pretty hard to save “too much” for retirement. If money is tight, it won’t always be easy, but contribute as much as you can to your 401(k) or similar employer-sponsored retirement plan. At a minimum, put in enough to earn the employer’s match, if one is offered. • Rebalance your investment portfolio. If you are now investing for yourself, you’ll want to take a close look at your asset mix to make sure it is appropriate for your situation. For example, your risk tolerance may be quite different than that of your ex-spouse’s. So if you now have total control over an investment portfolio, you need to make sure it reflects your needs and preferences. Consequently, you may need to “rebalance” your holdings. • Above all, get some help. As mentioned above, now is a good time to meet with a financial advisor. And if you don’t have much experience in managing your finances, you may even find it helpful to work with a trust company, which can collaborate with your financial provider to manage your assets and also provide a variety of other functions, including bill payment and record keeping. A trust company’s services can prove especially valuable to you and your family should you ever become incapacitated. Unfortunately, a divorce may leave you feeling “at sea” in many areas of your life. But by following the above suggestions, you can at least help keep your financial ship in calmer waters.

including a caregiver support group, at Cokesbury United Methodist Church. “He takes an active role in our church, in the community, he’s very supportive of the Kidney Foundation. He is a Big Brother in the Big Brothers, Big Sisters organization. He has a young man that he does so many things with. “And then, a couple of years ago, Bob brought his mother from Florida to live in Knoxville, and she’s having some illnesses,” Hollar added. “He’s a caretaker for her.” Event is free and open to the public.

Barr said. “They feel much better able to cope with the stress of driving. “A lot of people, as they get older, get fearful: ‘I don’t want to go out, I might run a stop sign,’” she added. As opposed to actual driving, “It’s just instruction,” where senior participants “watch the DVD,” said Lauren Cox, Town’s special events and program coordinator. “It updates them if the laws have changed. It’s kind of a refresher course.” Barr added, “We go over some ways that seniors can identify skills that we may have lost or that have become rusty with age. “That includes seeing, hearing, agility — in other words defensive driving. We know that we change, the roads change, there’s more traffic. And sometimes we are just afraid to drive because we don’t realize what we can do.” For example, “How to keep our-
selves physically able to drive, being able to turn your head and look behind you, which, as you get older, your neck stiffens. “How to avoid backing into each other in parking lots,” she added. “How to share the road with big trucks, buses, RVs, bicyclists, pedestrians.” Barr said a packet each senior will receive includes information on how to address the issue of giving up driving, should a given senior’s driving skills be diminished severely. Emphasizing that no one senior would be singled out during the class, Barr said the information “helps identify when we should quit driving.” So-called “self tests” during the class would identify to each student “areas in which we definitely need to stop driving,” Barr said. “Some of these seniors have even more senior sisters, brothers or parents,” making it necessary for some students to learn “how we can approach [them] to give up the keys,” Barr added.

A CBR below 700 is limited to 80% maximum loan to value (LTV). The costs for originating the loan, typically from $1,000 to $5,000, are waived with a minimum initial advance of $5,000. ***If the HELOC is closed within the first three years of opening, the closing costs waived must be reimbursed to FSGBank. Property insurance is required and is the sole responsibility of the homeowner. This promotion is available for a limited time only. Consult your tax advisor about interest deductibility.

Cost is $70. Registration and payment deadline is Thursday, Aug. 9. Pilates “helps align your
spine and helps to work on muscles that are not necessarily the ones that are just for looks or vanity,” Bradbury said. That includes “the muscles that you don’t always use.” Also “Learning how to breathe right. Taking time to connect with how your body’s reacting
and slowing your mind down at the same time,” he said. “You mainly focus on your core, all the different muscles in your ab area and back.” Betty Kalister, a registered yoga teacher, will hold her classes from 9 to 10 a.m., each Tuesday for seven weeks (Aug.

extremity work for performance enhancement-type techniques” concerning athletes when UT hosted the 1995 NCAA Track & Field Championships. “That year I became certified, and that opened the door,” Petty said. “I’ve been working with Tennessee track since 1999.” That’s when Petty began working with Tom Pappas, former national champion decathlete at UT and U.S. Olympian. “He was having a lot of issues, but he did great after a meet here in Knoxville, so coach [Bill] Webb invited me to join him on the road,” Petty said. “He won that meet as a national decathlete, broke an NCAA record.” From there came an association with Gatlin in 2001, current indoor 100-meter dash world champion. About Gatlin allegedly using substances for illegal performance enhancement, “That was totally bogus,” Petty said. “That was so far from a doping violation.” Petty said he first began to get national recognition for his efforts during an NCAA meet in Sacramento, Calif. in 2003. “The next year they hosted the Olympic Trials for track and field. ... They invited me to work the official meet as part of their [U.S.] medical staff,” Petty said. Former Vol pole vaulter Tim Mack, 2004 Olympic gold medalist, is yet another Petty “client.” Petty also will be working with former Vol decathlete Jangy Addy, a field specialist competing with Liberia in London. Petty said he and wife, Frances, headed to London “at the end of July” and would be working with his athletes “at the warm-up track” leading up to track and field events Aug. 3-10. “We'll fly back on [Aug. 10].” Another big moment for Petty
came when “I got invited to the 2008 [Olympic] Trials, which were in Eugene, Oregon,” he said. “Historically, when I’ve worked with these people directly, they’ve run season-best or lifetime best or won or all three,” he added. “I’ve worked these Olympic Trials, so they’ve put me on a fairly fast track toward getting credentialed through USA Track & Field, USOC.”
