Could you explain the loose zoning rules and the cheap free county tuition in Blount County?

 

I'm no expert on the zoning rules, but I would assume the loose zoning rules in the county are the same as they are for the city, with exception of the tuition, of course.....I would assume the no tuition thing would be because even Murvil city addresses are located in Blount County, therefore county taxes are being paid.  If Murvil didn't charge a tuition for kids living out of the city, I would suspect that many city residents would just move out of the city to avoid the city taxes and still send their kids to Murvil, resulting in a budget crunch.  According to the city manager 5 years ago, .87 cents out of every $1.00 of tax money went to the schools, and everything else was operating on the other .13 cents,  so I would think that Murvil is forced to charge a tuition to keep from losing tax revenue.

The price of gold just keeps going up.

I thought the county was divided between the two county high schools. For example, if you lived behind wb, you could not simply attend hairtage. If you lived in a certain section of murvil or alcoa, you had to attend a certain county school. I also don't think the county schools allow an out-of-county student to attend school since they don't charge tuition; but the 2 city schools can allow it if tuition is met.

 

Of course, at least two exceptions to any rule could be made based on 40 times or a parent working in the school system.

 

It all depends on the plan you fall under.

    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
