Body
SUMMARY:
Terry Hassler, Dave's Pawn Shop, has submitted a proposal for an indoor shooting range to be located next to his pawn shop on Hwy. 127N.  To cover safety and noise concerns and to eliminate conflicts within the Crossville Municipal Code, an ordinance is being proposed.  Following a meeting between the City Manager, City Clerk, Police Chief, and Councilman Kerley, staff is convinced that Mr. Hassler is planning a first class facility that will not result in any issues from neighboring businesses or residences.  
The ordinance provides for a permit fee.  This fee would cover costs for compliance visits during construction and during operation.  Council set that fee at $50/year.
