TDOT Calendar
TDOT Region 1's calendar only has one public meeting scheduled in July and it's on July 21. Steve Bordon must not want the local community to know what has changed. The last meeting went well and most everyone seemed ok with the plans, but a late notice not posted on the calendar is Steve's way of keeping changes out of pubic sight.

From KnoxNews: "TDOT officials unveiled Tuesday a fall start date for work on improvements to the 7.2-mile section of Chapman from south of Foothills Drive to Whites School."
Hopefully there were no Knoxville/Knox County representatives at this meeting - this is wholly in Sevier County - none of their concern.

White School was in Knox
White School was in Knox County. West of Highland View and Bowers Field.
Î know there is a Whites
Î know there is a Whites School Road in Knox County, there is also on in Sevier County - it is where the grass median begins on Chapman Highway on the way to Sevierville - that is the White School Road TDOT is talking about. This project is wholly within Sevier County.
