Lookout Crossing Phase 2 gas service gap
Summary
Phase 2 of Lookout Crossing was planned before the city's new gas-line ordinance, so those 111 future homes won't easily get natural gas. Commissioners flagged the issue given TVA electric capacity concerns and asked staff to see if the developer can still add the infrastructure.

Impact analysis
Retrofitting gas lines after road construction would be difficult and costly; the city gas department would ideally install infrastructure at its own cost.
Future Lookout Crossing homeowners if gas service can be added.
Future buyers may face all-electric homes and potentially higher energy bills if gas can't be extended.
