FIRST WORDS Homey stay or animal house next door? By Nick Della Volpe The hot zoning topic these days is about the potential benefits and problems of Short Term Rentals (STR), more commonly referred to as AirBNBs. These include stays at a residence for a Della Volpe short weekend up to a 30-day rental. To judge by comments at the city’s April 4 neighborhood meeting to discuss the draft regulations, this is all the rage among new homesteaders interested in owning and rehabbing older neighborhood homes for such business. They argue that short-term rentals can help raise funds needed for the rehab, or to support a more leisurely lifestyle in semi-retirement. Tough questions need to be explored before Knoxville will have answers and a workable set of STR regulations. First among them is: What will this do to established single-family neighborhoods? Will this introduce a business element into bedroom communities, where residents count on quiet streets and the welcome nosiness of neighbors to keep tabs on strangers in the area and the potential for criminal activity brewing down the block? Does such commercial conduct portend the gradual breakdown of traditional zoning that separates business activity from residential – sort of mixed-use activity gone riot? Administration officials conducting the meeting also expressed concern that STR conversions may exacerbate the shortage of affordable longterm rental housing. The issues are more than theoretical. According to Deputy Mayor Bill Lyons and Codes Director Peter Ahrens, there are already over 200 AirBNBs operating in Knoxville ... an illegal use in single-family residential districts. Like Uber in the taxi/ride-share world, this idea is spreading. The administration is proposing a permit system to add a modicum of control to the present laissez-faire situation. The proposal currently requires homeowners to live in the home they are attempting to rent on a short-term basis (Type 1 permit). They would apply for a permit, pay a modest $70 fee, collect hotel and sales taxes, and be responsible to have someone on call within To page A-2

Peter Cottontail and friends visit Powell The Easter Bunny, Clifford the Big Red Dog and friends stopped by Powell Station Park in time to celebrate the Easter holiday with the community. Powell Business and Professional Association helped pack the park as hundreds turned out for a day of fun. Giant inflatable slides were set up, Rural/Metro brought a firetruck, the Molar Express from East Tennessee Pediatric Dentistry provided train rides and Pearl the pony was on hand providing rides for the kids. Countless plastic eggs filled with candy and prizes were handed out to various winners. Redemption Life Church was also on hand serving up lunch, popcorn was being popped at a nearby station and sno-cones helped provide a little cool relief on a beautiful, sunny day.

Family’s loss becomes a cause
By Betsy Pickle
Elizabeth Psar’s daughter, Julia, has been gone almost a year, but her short life is still an inspiration. “I have derived strength from her,” says Psar, a child-advocacy lawyer whose career and personal life are primarily focused on helping children. Psar and her husband, Rado, had a “perfect” life until December 2015, when their 2½ -year-old daughter, Julia Barbara, suddenly started having balance problems. “I thought she had an inner-ear infection,” says the attorney. “It never occurred to me that she had a brain tumor.” Psar was at Juvenile Court when her husband took their daughter to the pediatrician. She remembers thinking that Julia would have to have tubes put in her ears. “That was going to be the worst thing that we were going to have to do,” she says. “That was that Monday morning, and by the evening
they’re saying she has a brainstem tumor. And then the next day they’re saying she’s going to die.” The Psars learned that their little girl had DIPG – Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma – a brainstem tumor that is inoperable and incurable. The tumor usually strikes between the ages of 5 and 7, but it can be found in younger children and teenagers. The Psar family, including son Vasil William, now 5, went to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital just before Christmas 2015 to have a port put in for the medications she would have to have. They returned home for the holiday because the doctor said that it would probably be Julia’s last Christmas. The four returned to St. Jude in January 2016. Julia had to endure a grueling regimen of radiation, chemotherapy and experimental drugs. Steroids were part of her treatment and, Psar says, had a horrific effect. Julia bore it all
bravely, but: “She just never smiled anymore, and she was a child who smiled all the time. The steroids just altered her so dramatically.” There were times when Julia seemed slightly better. But during a Make-a-Wish trip to Slovakia to visit Rado’s family, she started experiencing nausea again. Julia died in her sleep on May 17, 2016, exactly one month short of her third birthday. A few months later, Elizabeth and Rado started the Julia Barbara Foundation to raise awareness of DIPG and raise funds for research. Last month, state Sen. Doug Overbey of Maryville and state Rep. Jason Zachary of Knoxville sponsored a resolution to make May 17 DIPG Awareness Day in Tennessee. The Julia Barbara Foundation is hosting a Gala Celebrating DIPG Children at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 20, at the Women’s Basketball
Hall of Fame, 700 Hall of Fame Drive. Tickets, $60, are available on eventbrite.com. The Chillbillies, whose lineup includes Juvenile Court Judge Tim Irwin, will perform. Psar says the entire Juvenile Court team has been very supportive of her family and the foundation. It’s appropriate that the event is taking place at the Hall of Fame. One of the most high-profile DIPG victims is the late college basketball player Lauren Hill, who was inducted into the hall. Hill passed away in April 2015, but her foundation has raised millions for DIPG research and awareness. Psar says the incidence of DIPG is low – about 400 children are living with the diagnosis right now – but “that doesn’t include the children that die from it that nobody catches. It’s a very invasive tumor. It’s like a weed in your garden – it grows so quickly.” To page A-3 2704 Mineral Springs Ave. Knoxville, TN 37917 Ph. (865) 687-4537

Della Volpe 45 minutes to address complaints. Type 2 permits (no owner presence required) would be available in nonresidential zones. STRs are different from long-term rentals, which bring new residents into the community. By definition, STRs bring strangers next door. Often these rentals are for weekend stays, especially during football season and festival days. Tourists and friends get to stay in a home-like setting. A nightmare vision, however, might include a half-dozen twenty-something guys drinking beer on the back porch ’til 2 a.m. amid loud talk and music ... a college dorm redux. No sleep for the neighbors ... In fairness, the converse might be true. A family traveling through Knoxville might enjoy the quiet comfort of a home over the bustling and somewhatconfined activity in a hotel or motel lobby. In its best form, an AirBNB might introduce newcomers to the hospitality of Knoxville, possibly acting as an informal recruiting service for our hometown. My guess is

it will produce both types of scenarios. How equipped is our city codes group to enforce reasonable rules scattered around the town? At the April 4 meeting, some pro-STR renters argued they should not be limited to one owner- occupied home (under a Type 1 permit). Some already owned or were contemplating buying several homes to use as AirBNBs. “I’m semiretired and want the added income ...” (note: a Type 2 permit does not require owner occupation.) The bigger question is: when does an occasional short-term rental become a full blown hotel business, operating in your singlefamily neighborhood? When does the “operator’s” claim to property rights clash with the neighbors’ right to quiet enjoyment of their home? These are open questions. The city law department is revising the draft rules aired in April. MPC will tackle the proposal in May, followed by City Council review in June. Neighborhoods need to stay involved to help balance and shape the proposal.

Don and Virginia Cannon laugh at the tall tales of George Ed Gill.
This brick, marked with the initials of Knoxville Brick Company, was found last week in the woods near Brickyard Road.
Back when milk was ‘boom, boom’ By Shannon Carey Bill Edmondson said his mom was puzzled because he called milk “boom, boom.” Edmondson and his son, Kenneth from North Carolina, were back at the Powell History Club last week. The group is open to all. It meets each Wednesday from 2-3 p.m. at The Front Porch restaurant, where Bart Elkins serves a “bowl of something” and a slab of cornbread for $5. Bill said his family ordered two pints of milk from Weigel’s Dairy every day. “And when Wally Weigel set those two bottles on the porch, they went ‘boom, boom.’” George Ed Gill made his first visit to the club last week, and his memories of Powell’s early days stirred talk in others. George Ed’s best story was probably the one about the mule. Seems his mom, the late Myrtle Hackworth Gill, had a brand new 1941 Dodge. One day she got George Ed ready to visit Doc Vandergriff for back-to-school shots. Here’s his story: We
pulled into the four way (intersection of Emory and Heiskell roads) and were slammed by a pickup truck coming from Heiskell. The truck was carrying a mule in the back. On impact, the mule went straight up in the air and landed on the roof of our car. The News Sentinel ran a picture.” “Did the mule die?” we asked. “He died after they shot him,” said Gill. Gill told another quick story about his brother, the late Allan Gill, and their cousin, Lynnus Gill. Lynnus was a stunt pilot who built airplanes as well as houses on Gill Road in Powell. As a young man, he owned a motorcycle. He and Allan decided to vacation in Florida, Lynnus driving and Allan riding behind him. “It got so cold on the way back that Allan said he couldn’t take it. They counted out their money and bought Allan a bus ticket back to Knoxville.” The cousins arrived at about the same time. Allan was at least warm, and Lynnus made better time with less

The Lamb who lives The next day John [the Baptist] again was standing with two of his disciples, and as he watched Jesus walk by, he exclaimed, “Look, here is the Lamb of God!” (John 1: 35-36 NRSV) The Easter story never gets old. It is as amazing and startling and breathtaking today as when the stone was first rolled away from the tomb. Christians the world over rejoice again, celebrate anew, proclaim with wonder, “He is alive!” This season is the most joyous and celebrative season of the Christian year. Even the readings that take us through the weeks between Easter and Pentecost are taken from the Acts of the Apostles rather than the Old Testament, because the early church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, is the best witness to the Resurrection. There are those who say that when Christmas is over, it is really over, because of the let-down from celebration, as well as the cleaning and putting away of decorations and carol books and the temptations of finishing off the Christmas cookies. (I know who you are!) But the Resurrection of Jesus is a whole ’nother

thing. Even the resurrection of Lazarus was only a temporary reprieve. Jesus, however, was resurrected to live forever! We can’t explain it. We can only believe it. The disciples (that bunch of craven cowards who deserted Jesus when the going got tough) rallied eventually (except, of course, Judas, who repented by committing suicide) and went all over most of the (then) known world telling the amazing story. It saddens me when the only celebration some people want at Easter is an egg hunt. (I am not opposed to egg hunts; I have been to many of them!

PHS Environmental Club builds pollinator garden Last year, the Powell High School Environmental Club, sponsored by chemistry teacher Mary Eisenhower, received a $1,000 grant from the Water Quality Forum to build a native species pollinator garden in the Powell Outdoor Classroom space behind Powell Station Park. With the help of Knox County Stormwater AmeriCorps Water Quality Team member Pat Rose, the garden is now planted. The importance of pollinators such as bees and butterflies for food production is well known, but a habitat for these species is in decline. Students in the PHS Environmental Club decided public education was needed to prevent further declines in pollinator populations. Rather than just talk about it, the students decided that the
Students at Powell High School work on a pollinator garden at the Powell Outdoor Classroom.
best way to educate was to do something about it. A decision was made to build and plant a pollinator garden using native flowering species. Last month, after months
of preparatory work, 75 native flowers were planted in a garden with walking paths. The garden, when fully complete, will feature signs about the flowers and
their importance to pollinator insects. Some of the varieties planted are coreopsis, coneflower, aster and sunflower, with each species planted in its own bed.

Robertson
the country’s most dist ing uished Civil War histor ians, Dr. James I. “Bud” R ob e r t s on Jr., will address the K nox v ille
Civil War Round Table on May 9 on “The Four-Legged Soldier in the Civil War.” Robertson will speak to the critical role played by horses and mules in the war, far more of whom died than did humans, and to the invaluable role played by regimental mascots in boosting the morale and lifting the spir-
its of soldiers on both sides. Robertson is the author or editor of more than 25 books on the Civil War. He served as executive director of the U.S. Civil War Centennial Commission in the 1960s and worked with Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson in commemorating the war’s 100th an-
Ride with the #1 car insurer in Tennessee.
James Madison might have been the fourth president of the United States, but I found that most people I inter v iewed for this article either didn’t know Kip or didn’t remember who he was even if they had taken American history classes. So Kinzy and I found some very fun and interesting facts to help us remember him and his wife, Dolly. Wife Dolly actually planned the first presidential inaugural ball! Madison, however, was very shy, which may have been because he was so small. He was the shortest president we have ever had at barely 5 feet, 4 inches tall and only 100 pounds, which may be why he didn’t like to wear the traditional pants called knee breeches. He was the first president to wear long pants instead. He was also the first president who had also been a member of Congress. His time in Congress and as president was quite interesting, though. He was known as the Father of the Constitution for all the work he did to write and pass our Constitution. He was also the first and only president ever to lead the troops into battle when he declared war on Britain. Two years later,
the British burned Washington, D.C., including the White House. While they were burning the house, troops found and ate the president’s meal on the dining table as it was left when everyone had escaped the White House. His wife, Dolly, stayed in the White House as the British were burning it so she could rescue the portrait of George Washington. He was a very popular president when he left office. Possible tweets from President Madison could be: James Madison @ FatheroftheConstitution I was arrested in Vermont when Thomas Jefferson and I went for a carriage ride on a Sunday afternoon, which just happened to be against the law in Vermont. James Madison @ FatheroftheConstitution My face was on the $5,000 bill, but the government stopped making them in 1945! James Madison @ FatheroftheConstitution My famous quote will be: “All men having power ought to be mistrusted.” James Madison @ FatheroftheConstitution I am an original trustee of the University of Virginia and left most of my personal library to the school!

dip experienced in February. In March, about $300 million was loaned against real estate in Knox County, up from $221 million in February, and about $9 million above March 2016 levels. The largest real estate sale of the month was a purchase by Lincoln Memorial University of the Pellissippi Office Center on Cogdill Road. The complex sold for $7.5 million. The largest mortgage loan filed was a Deed of Trust in the amount of $6.42 million financing property at the intersection of Chapman Highway and Woodlawn Pike known as Chapman Commons. Analysis of the first quarter’s data indicates that 2017 is running moderately ahead of 2016 in both real estate sales and mortgage lending. As of March 31, around $624 million worth of property has been sold in Knox County, compared to $530 million during the first quarter of 2016. Mortgage lending is also outpacing last year’s first-quarter activity, with approximately $837 million loaned so far this year, compared with $791 million last year.

Painting with a Twist comes to Powell By Shannon Carey Powell High School art teacher Lee Jenkins-Freels, along with her husband and brother, has opened Painting with a Twist at 2415 Callahan Drive near Firehouse Subs and across the street from Lowe’s. Jenkins-Freels grew up in Powell, one of seven children. She holds a degree in art and a master’s degree in education. She joined Knox County Schools in 2005. Painting with a Twist is a Louisiana-based franchise founded in 2007 by friends Cathy Deano and Renee Maloney. After Hurricane Katrina, the women jointly invested $8,000 to create a fun business where neighbors could learn to paint, drink wine and relax.
Patrick Jenkins, Lee Jenkins-Freels and Jim Freels at the opening of Painting with a Twist in Powell. The business offers twoto three-hour painting classes four times a week. Prices are low, and the store provides everything but the liquid refreshments. Ac-
cording to the corporate website, the women today own four locations and the business has 328 franchise locations nationwide. Patrick Jenkins said the

Virginia Mulrooney, Mrs. Tennessee America, stopped by Commercial Bank last week and helped out with a fundraising project. The bank hosted a jelly bean counting contest, where guests paid $1 for Relay for Life and were able to guess the number of jelly beans in a jar. Four prizes – a picnic basket, stuffed rabbit, stuffed duck and plaques – were given out to the four guesses closest to the total. Mulrooney is a member of the community and of Commercial Bank, so when asked to participate, she was more than happy to assist. As Mrs. Tennessee America, Mulrooney will compete at
the Mrs. America pageant in Las Vegas in August. Her platform is raising awareness to lupus. In 2006, after the birth of her seventh child, she received a diagnosis of lupus, which left her bedridden for four years. As she worked her way out of bed, to using a wheelchair and later a cane, Mulrooney knew that she needed to do something to bring her out of the valley. In 2012, she started working toward the goal of Mrs. Tennessee America and now holds the title. “My heart’s desire is to encourage people to never give up, to stay strong and to never lose hope.”
The Rotary guy
Breakfast Rotary’s annual wildflower sale Is April 29 By Tom King Rotarians in Knoxville do a lot of things … things like working to eradicate polio, reading to kids at schools, prov iding new library Tom King books for elementary schools, working alongside The News Sentinel at Free Flu Shot Saturday, supporting the Cerebral Palsy Center’s group home, delivering meals to seniors, and backing the important work done by many nonprofit organizations. One of our clubs – the Knoxville Breakfast Rotary Club – sells wildflowers to raise money for the community projects it supports. If you are needing a few new wildflowers for your yard or home, the Breakfast Rotarians are about to have their popular major fundraiser – its 25th Annual Wildflower Sale. It will be on Saturday, April 29, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Rocky Hill Shopping Center on Northshore Drive at Morrell Road. The club will have spring flowers ready to plant, and

last words
The real Andy Holt Maybe the early Seventies weren’t the best of times to be a student at the University of Tennessee, but anybody with a functioning brain knew that the rattiest booth at the Roman Room was infinitely preferable to the accommodations at Fort Polk, Louisiana – AKA Fort Puke, next stop Vietnam. Protesters and selfproclaimed freaks faced off against YAFFers (Young Americans for Freedom) and the specter of war shadowed us everywhere. Nevertheless, lots of students liked Andy Holt, even though many weren’t crazy about some of the UT president’s old-school, paternalistic ways, particularly the time he invited Billy Graham to preach in Neyland Stadium and bring noted theologian Richard Nixon along, too. A World War II veteran born in 1904 (which means
Betty Bean he enlisted even though he was well past draft age), he’d lived through two world wars and had a different perspective on life than did most Boomers. There were things about him that gave conservatives the willies, too. He’d been executive director of the Tennessee Education Association, president of the National Education Association and had chaired the U.S. Delegation to the World Organization of the Teaching Profession in Switzerland. Think that resume would get anybody appointed UT president nowadays? The Real Andy Holt advocated ending segregation and
defended one of my old history professors who came under fire for his association with the Highlander Center, which also entertained Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks. Later, students walking along Cumberland Avenue waved at him when he’d come chugging by in the orange Volkswagen UT alumni gave him when he retired (his wife got a white Mercedes). Often as not he’d stop and give somebody a lift to class. Storied acts of kindness too habitual to be random circulated widely. In those days, the president of Real Andy Holt Photo courtesy of UT was the the University of Tennessee
most popular person in Knoxville, probably in the state. Imagine that. So when a West Tennessee pig farmer/state legislator named Andy Holt started
Four new state senators? Possibly When state Sen. Mark Green is confirmed as the new Secretary of the Army (probably this summer) he must resign his state Senate seat, which triggers a special election to fill it until his term ends in 2020. Montgomery County Commission will appoint an interim senator for four months. State Sen. Mark Norris, current majority leader, is widely mentioned as a new federal judge in Memphis, which would remove him from the governor’s race. He is 62 – older than what the Trump administration is looking for in new federal judges – but he has influential backers and could be tapped. State Sen. Doug Overbey, 62, who had been mentioned as a candidate for gov-
Victor Ashe
ernor, appears to have shifted his interest to the U.S. attorney position here in East Tennessee, while Jeff Hagood, who had previously expressed interest, appears to have considered the cut in pay he would incur if he were appointed. He may be interested in a position on the TVA board, which has three openings at present and two more in 2018. Should state Sen. Ken Yager be appointed to the TVA board, there is unsettled opinion on whether he can hold both offices. Yager
seems committed to staying in the state Senate if forced to make a choice. All are very able senators who have made their mark. So it is possible that there are four Senate vacancies this year (clearly one) triggering four special elections for the Senate and four new Senators by 2018. This comes on top of the November 2016 statewide election, in which there was only one change in the Senate. The only sure election will be for the Green seat once he is confirmed. House Speaker Beth Harwell is giving Gov. Bill Haslam fits over the gas tax with her endorsement of an alternative that does not raise taxes. She has decided that Haslam will not back her for governor next year

and she should move to the right to win enough backing to win a four-way primary contest. Also complicating the issue are the outnumbered Democrats who will decide whether this passes the House or not, since GOP members are badly split. If 20 Democrats withhold their votes, the gas tax hike will fail in the House. The Democrats will have a shopping list they want satisfied before they vote for the tax hike. Local state Rep. Rick Staples recently voted not to send the bill to the House floor. ■■ Federal district Judge Tom Varlan, who is chief judge, had a full house on April 7 when his portrait was unveiled.

Knox County At-Large Commissioners Ed Brantley and Bob Thomas will host their next Ed & Bob Night Out in Knox County 5-7 p.m. Thursday, April 20, at Chandler’s Deli, 3101 Magnolia Ave. They plan to meet with the people of east Knox County and listen to their concerns. Ed and Bob feel that going out to the citizens eases the strain on those who, because of work, commitments, financial situation or the distance to the City-County Building, cannot attend regular commission meetings. All elected officials, media and public are welcome. This is not a commission meeting, there is no agenda, and there will be no votes taken. his days as city law director, including former vice mayor Jack Sharp and his wife, Doris, along with former city council members Gary Underwood, Ed Shouse (now county trustee), Jean Teague, Ivan Harmon and Larry Cox, as well as former parks director Sam Anderson, former community relations director Tank Strick-

Angela Floyd received a big “thank you” hug from Luttrell Elementary teacher Cheryl Bowman. Thanks to Cash for Classrooms, Bowman was able to purchase a color printer and toner cartridges for her classroom.
Shopper news is proud to co-sponsor the 2017 Cash for Classrooms with the help of the Great Schools Partnership. Thanks to our sponsors, we put $5,000 directly into classrooms ($250 each to 20 classes). And we helped Angela Floyd celebrate 20 years in business.
