PIGEON FORGE â The city will have a new set of sign ordinances before its moratorium on sign permits ends, after commissioners voted 4-1 Monday to approve the new regulations.
The city first announced its plans for a moratorium at its Feb. 22 meeting, approving it on first reading. The moratorium started on March 8, and with approval of the new ordinances will end April 27.
Commissioner Ken Maples, who had already expressed reservations with the regulations at a workshop, cast the sole dissenting vote against the new regulations.
The ordinances aim to make the cityâs regulations âcontent neutralâ after the old regulations were overturned in court.

SEVIERVILLE Sevier County residents will not be able to get Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose vaccine for COVID-19 for an undetermined amount of time after the federal government recommended a “pause” in distribution of the vaccine.
The Tennessee Department of Health announced Tuesday that it would follow federal recommendations to hold off on administering the vaccine while federal officials review reports of rare but dangerous blood clots in a handful of patients who have received the vaccine.
State officials said they expect to be able to continue providing vaccinations in Tennessee on schedule, although patients will need to take the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine, both of which require two doses to be fully effective.
