The Mosheim Planning Commission met briefly Thursday evening, but took no action.

The meeting was not attended by a Greeneville Sun reporter, but telephone interviews were conducted Friday. Mayor Billy Myers said no action was taken and referred the reporter to Albert Teilhet, the state planner under contract to Mosheim.

Teilhet said in a telephone interview that he briefed the group about an upcoming presentation.

Teilhet said Dana Ball, a Tennessee Valley Authority employee who has been the president of the Middle Nolichucky Watershed Alliance for the past year, plans to visit all five planning commissions in the county in coming months, to talk about growth readiness.

Teilhet said Ball, who was head of the Alliance before taking a job with TVA, will present the recommendations generated from a series of four "growth readiness" workshops held this past year, in hopes that planners will begin taking the recommendations to heart.

No time has yet been set, he said.

Teilhet said he also briefed the planners on colors and shading techniques that the local planning office of the state Department of Economic & Community Development is using on base maps and zoning maps it provides to East Tennessee municipalities and counties.
