1396 LEWIS ST ANNEXATION ANALYSIS
PLAN OF SERVICE
CITY OF CLEVELAND, TENNESSEE
The City of Cleveland, Tennessee is pursuing the annexation of approximately 7.42 acres located
at 1396 Lewis St NE as described in this report, along with a corresponding plan of service and
zoning plan for the area. The area is inside the existing Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). The
proposed annexation is proposed to occur in 2019.
This report begins with a brief overview of the annexation process and the report then turns to a
proposed Plan of Services (POS) for the annexation area. The services described are those that
would be necessary for the City to provide under Tennessee law. This area is proposed to receive
city services in accordance with the POS.
p. 551 REGULAR SESSION
JULY 22, 2019
PAGE -551-
MINUTE BOOK 29
Introduction
Public Chapter 1101 (PC 1101), adopted as Tennessee law in 1998, required cities to work
cooperatively with other local governments to determine an urban growth boundary (UGB) in
which annexations could occur. Cleveland has a twenty-nine square mile UGB that was based on
a study of urbanization and service requirements in a fifty square mile urban fringe area. The
UGB was amended in January 2010, expanding it near I-75 Exit 20 and in the vicinity of the new
airport site near Dry Valley Road. Cleveland can annex property within its UGB by resolution.
PC 1101 Section 19 requires a “Plan of Services” (POS) prior to annexation and these services
must include: police and fire protection: water, electrical and sanitary sewer services; solid waste
collection; road and street construction and repair; recreational facilities and programs; street
lighting; and zoning services. Public Chapter 225 adopted by the Tennessee General Assembly
and signed by Governor Bredesen on June 2, 2003, amended TCA 6-51-102 to include impact on
school attendance zones.
The subject parcel is not contiguous with the existing city limits and will require an agreement
with Bradley County concerning services to the intervening properties. The property is situated
along APD 40 which is a state route so minimal impact to the County is anticipated. The owner
has requested MU Mixed Use as the post-annexation zoning however no end user has been
identified. The property is described as Tax Map 58B Group C Parcel 11.00.
1396 Lewis St

a period of approximately three months and will apply in all proposed areas.

p. 553 REGULAR SESSION
JULY 22, 2019
PAGE -553-
MINUTE BOOK 29
b. Routine maintenance of local streets in the proposed areas will be scheduled on the same
basis as such maintenance in the rest of the City.
c. Reconstruction and resurfacing of streets, installation of storm drainage facilities,
construction of curbs and gutters, and other such substantial improvements in the proposed
areas (where identified as needed by the governing body) will be accomplished in
accordance with the priorities and policies established for the entire city.
d. It appears that no street name signs or street striping/painting is needed at this time for the
proposed areas.

No major drainage problems were identified in these areas. Emergency drainage maintenance
(i.e. cleaning catch basins, unstopping tile, installing drainage tile and/or catch basins) within
these areas will begin at time of annexation.
E. General Rights-of-Way Maintenance (i.e. street sweeping, snow removal)
a. Current city policies for routine street sweeping will be scheduled on the same basis as in
the rest of the City and will apply in all proposed areas.
b. Current city policies for snow removal and salting will be scheduled on the same basis as
in the rest of the City and will apply in all proposed areas.
6. Schools

site does develop residentially, the current cost to the school system is $976.59 per student per
year.
7. Planning and Zoning
A. The planning and zoning jurisdiction of the City will extend to the annexation areas upon
the effective date of annexations and all municipal planning activities will encompass the
needs of the annexed areas.
B. This property is currently zoned C-2 General Commercial Zoning in the unincorporated
County. The property is proposed for MU Mixed Use Zoning District as its post-
annexation zoning.
p. 554 REGULAR SESSION
JULY 22, 2019
PAGE -554-
MINUTE BOOK 29
C. In the case of lots of record that are recorded prior to the effective date of annexation, if
there are prevailing deed or subdivision restrictions on record, these deed or subdivision
restrictions shall apply if in conflict with City zoning or subdivision regulations.
8. Animal Shelter
The City operates a full-time animal control program including an animal shelter. The
Animal Shelter is located on Hill Street SE. Services include pick-up of stray and/or
dangerous animals. These services will be available to the annexation areas on the
effective date of the annexation.
9. Voting Rights and City Elections
A. If an eligible voter’s permanent place of residence is located in an annexed area, that
voter is automatically eligible to vote in City elections.

register at the Election Commission Office prior to voting in a City election.
C. This annexation will add approximately 0 residents to the 2nd City Council District as

on the Cleveland Utilities monthly water bill. The monthly fee will be $1.63.

c. The City of Cleveland is now a Qualified Local Program (QLP). All development needing
the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) Construction
General Permit coverage will submit all required documentation and fees to the City of
Cleveland only.
Revenue
The property is currently vacant with a total assessed value of $178,300. At the City’s current tax
rate this would result in approximately $1,469.19 in annual property tax. Given the properties
proximity along APD40, a reasonable estimate of a highest and best use scenario would result in
property tax generation of approximately $8,500 per acre. This estimate is based on uses such as
fuel service facilities, restaurants, retail sales or similar uses. Removing future right-of-way and
infrastructure, approximately 6.5 acres of this site could reasonably be expected to be developed
resulting in approximately $55,250 per year in property tax.
Councilman May moved that Resolution No: 2019-66 be accepted as presented. The motion
was seconded by Councilman Hughes. Councilman Estes inquired as to the costs and timeline to
provide services, since it is not contiguous to the City. Mr. Divel stated water is already there and we
would have eight years for sewer. Mr. Fivas stated mostly in mixed uses, the developer would add
their own sewer line. Mr. Dival stated yes, if it is before the eight years, the developer will be
responsible. Upon roll call the motion was unanimously passed.
The Resolution was then presented in full:
