Sevierville residents and property owners are invited to a public hearing concerning the proposed annexation of territory on New Era Road. The hearing is scheduled for Monday, November 2, 2026, at 6 PM. It will take place at the Sevierville Civic Center, located at 130 Gary R. Wade Blvd. The purpose of this hearing is to gather public comment on Resolution R-2026-021, which, upon its third reading, aims to formally incorporate certain parcels into the city limits of Sevierville.
The specific properties targeted for annexation are identified as Tax Map 072 Parcels 015.00 and 017.00, both situated on New Era Road. The proposed action involves expanding the corporate boundaries of the City of Sevierville to include these designated land areas. This process is part of an ongoing municipal procedure to manage and define the city’s jurisdictional limits. The public hearing serves as a critical opportunity for residents and interested parties to voice their perspectives on the proposed change.
The consideration of Resolution R-2026-021 is part of a broader set of related legislative actions by the City of Sevierville. These include Resolution R-2026-020, which outlines the associated Plan of Services for the annexed territory, and Ordinance O-2026-014, pertaining to the zoning regulations that would apply to the parcels once they are incorporated into the city. These documents collectively detail the framework under which the newly annexed land would operate within the city's governance.
Members of the public seeking more detailed information about these resolutions and ordinance may do so prior to the scheduled hearing. Further particulars on Resolution R-2026-020 (Plan of Services), Ordinance O-2026-014 (Zoning), and Resolution R-2026-021 (Annexation) can be obtained by contacting Sevierville City Hall.
