Commission tables request for brake signage on Highway 25-E pending attorney review

The Grainger County Board of Commissioners tabled a request to ask the State of Tennessee for brake signage on Highway 25-E at its Jan. 12 meeting. Commissioner Scott Wynn moved to table the request and Commissioner James Acuff seconded; the item was tabled by voice vote pending review by County Attorney Lane Wolfenbarger.

The motion places the request on hold while the county attorney examines legal and procedural issues related to asking the state for signage. The minutes do not record further details about the requested signage, placement proposals, or any timeline for the attorney's review. The commission recorded the referral and expects an update following the attorney’s review; a legal review was requested prior to the commission taking further action.
