JACKSBORO, TN (WLAF)- The Regional Campbell County Planning Commission met on Monday evening, approving multiple minor lot subdivisions and tabling a decision on a preliminary plat for a major lot subdivision until next month.
First approved was a minor lot subdivision for Stones Mill Subdivision on Mill Road.
County Planner Jordan Rockwell said he recommended approval and that the easement “was gravel and in good shape.”
“They meet our regulations as far as an easement goes for four lots. We allow private roads, you just have to have it constructed to the same specifications as public and have a maintenance agreement for it,” Rockwell said. He pointed out that to add more lots than four, the easement would have to be expanded to be larger than it is.
Second approved was a minor lot subdivision for Robert and Regina Kennedy on Water Street. This approval was recommended by the county planner.
A minor lot subdivision was approved for Brian Pebley on Old Bethlehem Road. It was approval of the final plat.
Planning commission chairman Rusty Orick said he had looked at it over the weekend.
Rockwell said that county road superintendent Ron Dilbeck had inspected the easement and it “met the county’s regulations.”
Also approved was a minor lot subdivision for Hammett Subdivision on Dawson Creek Lane.
“This is an existing easement that has been there quite a while. It meets our standards,” Rockwell told planning commission members, who approved it on his recommendation.
The planning commission also voted to table the approval of a preliminary plat for a major lot subdivision on Island Road, near East Jacksboro Baptist Church. It is a proposed 10 lot residential subdivision by property owner Dustin Woodson. He told planning commission members that the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) has already approved issued the permit that was required from them and asked what else needed to be done.
Rockwell said that County Road Superintendent Ron Dilbeck had looked at it and said he had some questions he wanted to ask of the project engineer. There was also some paperwork needed regarding the drainage of storm water.
Rockwell also asked if he could have the hydrology test information on Island Ford Road sent to him and Woodson said he would do so.
Woodson also presented a small mobile home park that he plans to expand on Old Hwy 63 past Judy’s Grocery. He said it will provide “affordable housing” for Campbell County residents. It is going to be a “$5-million-dollar development with pickleball courts, splash pads and more.” “It is not going to be a normal mobile home park,” Woodson said. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED-03/03/2026-6AM)
