The subdivision regulations were all fine and good when there was little demand and mostly local developers. Then, when development goes badly, the elected will point fingers at the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Agency who must work with the county’s weak regulations. Hamilton County has the weakest land use and subdivision regulations I have ever read in my life.

My next wish for 2022 is that the Hamilton County Commissioners upgrade their zoning and subdivision regulations that are currently a train wreck. Otherwise, it will require a costly petition drive to amend the city charter. The city of Chattanooga is the last hanger-on for their own off cycle election - at a wasteful cost to the property taxpayers in the city. Instead, I wish our state legislators would introduce law to require municipalities in the state of Tennessee to merge their elections to coincide with the state general elections. My first wish for 2022 is for Senator Todd Gardenhire to stop attempting to pass legislation to double the political classes’ salary on the HCDE school board. Heck one year, I saw a city councilman win with 1,700 votes how crazy is that in a city the size of Chattanooga? All municipalities in Hamilton County have amended their public charters to align elections with the general election, which ensures greater voter turnout, diversity, and is less costly to the municipalities. The city of Chattanooga elected council is comprised of special off-cycle, low turn-out election choices. I believe that most county centrists want outcomes that reflect reasonable and common-sense values. That is a good thing, as I will attempt not to say anything bad about the local parties. Hamilton County is a largely independent, centrist community, and many have never had contact with these local political parties. The property tax bills are pending, and we have more cash in our pockets to pay those bills because y’all put your foot down. The last attempt by Hamilton County government to smack us with a $40 million property tax increase, or put a wastewater treatment plant in the local’s backyards, was nipped in the bud by centrists. That is the one thing I know that keeps getting proven to me. Given a choice of localism versus corporatism, most of the native centrists seem to default to localism. The community can trust him over the slickers that have come to HCDE to build a resume. Robertson was a beloved classroom teacher who earned his position through a career of dedication and work ethic.
How about them apples, the school board made a great decision. Hamilton County is blessed with a wonderful new school superintendent, a local fellow Justin Robertson. Saying goodbye through a window was crushing, and left my family devastated.
