Hearing: Thursday, Sept. 10, 2026, 1:30 p.m., Main Assembly, 400 Main St. Variances include cul-de-sac radius reductions and horizontal curve alternatives.

Knox Planning posts Sept. 10 concept review for a 40-lot plan at 2131 E Governor John Sevier Highway.

Knoxville-Knox County Planning Commission posts Thursday, Sept. 10, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. in the Main Assembly Room, 400 Main Street, with concept-plan case 9-SF-26-C — Prices Point Church Expansion — for a 40-lot single-family split on 11.88 acres at 2131 E Governor John Sevier Highway. Proposed density is 3.47 dwelling units per acre. The related development plan is 9-E-26-DP. Agenda item No. 30.

The knoxplanning.org case file is the primary source. Location: southwest side of E Governor John Sevier Highway, northwest of Old French Road, Commission District 9. Place type: RC Rural Conservation and SP Stream Protection. Currently on the property: agriculture/forestry/vacant land and public/quasi-public land owned by a church. Growth Plan: Planned Growth Area. Fire: Seymour Volunteer Fire Department. Water and sewer: Knox-Chapman Utility District. Applicant listed: Prices Point Church Expansion / Taylor Forrester. Staff planner: Samiul Haque. Date filed: July 28, 2026. Recommendations will be available one week prior to the meeting. A staff recommendation, a roll-call, an HOA fee and a sales price are not on the case page yet.

What exactly is on the Sept. 10 Prices Point concept plan?

A concept plan for a 40-lot single-family subdivision (split) at 2131 E Governor John Sevier Highway on 11.88 acres at 3.47 du/ac, case 9-SF-26-C, with related development plan 9-E-26-DP. Hearing: Knoxville-Knox County Planning Commission, Thursday, Sept. 10, 2026, 1:30 p.m., Main Assembly, 400 Main St. Agenda Item No. 30. Variances sought include reducing cul-de-sac pavement radius from 40 feet to 37.5 feet and right-of-way radius from 50 feet to 47.5 feet, plus alternative design standards cutting horizontal curve radii on Roads A and B from 250 feet to 100 feet. Engineering also lists intersection-grade increases at Road A / W Governor John Sevier Highway (1% to 2%) and at Road A / Road B (1% to 1.5%) that do not require Planning Commission approval. Because the site is in the county, appeals of the concept plan go to Knox County Commission. That is the locked list.

Agenda review is Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 11:30 a.m. Comments on specific items are due by 12:30 p.m. the day of the review meeting via knoxplanning.org/share. Until staff posts recommendations, the case page — not a rumor about church land sales — is the controlling text. A concept-plan approval still leaves final plat, driveway permits, and utility sign-offs in front of any house pad.

Does a 40-lot concept plan reprice a South Knox or Seymour-area house?

Not by itself. A noticed concept plan is how Planning reviews lot layout, variances, and design standards before anything is platted. It is not an East Tennessee REALTORS MLS comparable. Disclose it if a buyer asks what is happening at 2131 E Governor John Sevier Highway. Price your house to closed comps, condition, and days on market. Do not mark a South Knox listing up because 40 lots are on a Sept. 10 agenda. Do not cut it because cul-de-sac radii are 2.5 feet short of the standard. Stream-protection place type on the case page means drainage and buffers will matter in staff notes; that still is not a sold comparable.

The live Maryville Pike 255-unit post and the Sept. 21 data-center moratorium hearing are separate files. Those posts are not this lead. Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey still shows the 30-year fixed averaging 6.66% with little change this week. A few basis points will not reprice a Governor John Sevier Highway house the way a full point would. Waiting for that full point while other Knox sellers list into the same dip is a different decision than Planning posted a 40-lot church-land expansion.

Can I buy the next Knoxville house before this one sells?

You can write the offer. A contingent contract on a Knox County clock is still a maybe when the next seller already has a buyer who is not waiting on a concept-plan vote. Our proven system puts a written sale date under this house so the next offer is a real buyer.* If you need a date certain, ask about a cash offer. The two-house trap did not change because Prices Point filed 9-SF-26-C: you cannot honor the next address until this one is settled, and you will not list until you know where you are going. New lots on Governor John Sevier Highway do not rewrite a contingency clause.

How is this different from Maryville Pike, The Fields, and the data-center moratorium?

The Maryville Pike file is the separate 255-unit Mesana approval. The Fields (9-SC-26-C / 9-B-26-DP) is a separate 26-lot, 7.86-acre concept on W Beaver Creek Drive — southeast side of W Beaver Creek, west of Old Clinton Pike — also set for Sept. 10 as Agenda Item No. 27, with Landmark Engineers & Surveyors, LLC on the application and Mike Reynolds as staff. The Sept. 21 Knox County Commission zoning night still carries the data-center moratorium (8-B-26-OB) covered separately. This file is 40 lots on 11.88 acres of church-owned land at 2131 E Governor John Sevier Highway. Keep Mesana, Beaver Creek, the moratorium, and Prices Point in four folders. Do not average 40 lots with 255 apartments into a fake South Knox density ordinance.

What should Knox County owners near Governor John Sevier Highway do this week?

Keep the case page: 9-SF-26-C, Sept. 10, 1:30 p.m., 40 lots, 11.88 acres, 2131 E Governor John Sevier Hwy.
Price to closed comps in East Tennessee REALTORS MLS territory — not to a concept-plan agenda line.
Watch for staff recommendations around Sept. 8; if variances are conditioned or deferred, that becomes a new clip.
Do not retell Maryville Pike, The Fields, or the data-center moratorium as this lead.
Start with a home evaluation. Ask about a cash offer if timing is the problem.
