First of all, the

building that is much closer
to the street and does not
have full brick on the sides
as ours does.
Lori Landry and Jay
Cameli expressed concern
that ESC was asking for
permission vs. forgiveness
as Quick Cash had done.
Fortunately Ms. Isabella
Ford corrected them and
pointed out that apparently
they had forgotten that they
provided the Quick Cash
variance after construction.
This point was not recorded
in the Chronicle article.
And finally, during
Clairrene’s Collectibles,
was granted a variance to
enclose the front and side of
their overhang with metal.
This is directly on Lebanon
Road and highly visible.
I thought the purpose
of the Planning Commission
was to allow reasonable
waivers as they did for
Clairrene’s and Quick Cash.
Why would we require a
business in our city to make
a significant expenditure
that does not benefit our
community?

Shoplifting team foiled on Black Friday
MJ sees ‘brisk’ sales
By Tomi L. Wiley
Managing Editor
During what has

but successful” Black Friday
weekend in Mt. Juliet,

felony theft
charges, authorities said
Tuesday.
Michael Demonde
Starks, 24, and Erica Nicole
James, 24, both of Lebanon,
were arrested at Providence
just after 8 p.m. Friday. Mt.
Juliet Police Officer Mike
Roundtree saw the loss
prevention officer from TJ
Maxx involved “in a scuffle
on the sidewalk” outside
the store, according to
MJPD Det. David Stolinsky
and the filed police report.
Starks had approximately
$900 in stolen clothing
which was returned to TJ
Maxx that day, and a search
of the suspect’s vehicle
revealed approximately
$1,000 worth of stolen
merchandise from Dollar
General Store and various
area retailers. Stolinsky
said the investigation as to
which Dollar General the
merchandise came from
is still ongoing. According
to the report, one of the
suspects allegedly had a
knife.
Both Starks and
James have been charged
with theft of merchandise
over $500, which are felony
charges, Stolinsky said.
Their General Sessions Court
date is January 12, 2010,
and Stolinsky said they will
most likely be bound over to
the Grand Jury.
“Other than that, it
was very quiet,” Stolinsky
said, adding that people
were camped out at Best Buy
in Providence beginning at 9
a.m. on Thanksgiving Day,
and at 4:45 a.m. on Black
Friday there were around
2,000 people waiting to get
into Target.
“There was a line
outside of LifeWay Christian
Bookstore,” Stolinsky said.
“Last year the crowds
dropped off around noon,
but this year Providence was
steady all day, and there
were no real traffic problems
except people trying to
leave.”
Mt. Juliet Economic
Development Director Kenny
Martin said that JC Penny
at Providence was “the top
in the region” in sales, and
that the store had “fabulous”
Black Friday sale numbers.
“Everyone I’ve
talked to experienced brisk
sales,” Martin said. “The
two Krogers did better than
last year, Belk did great and
has done great for the past
two months. Best Buy did
awesome – Mt. Juliet had a
fantastic Black Friday.”
The new Wal-Mart,
Martin said, also experienced
a successful shopping day.
Martin said that Wal-Mart
Manager Bruce Abbott
expects another busy
several shopping days this
weekend.
“Everyone so far
has been excited and overly
satisfied,” Martin said.
The economic
director added that he, Mt.
Juliet City Manager Randy
Robertson, Public Works
Director Marlin Keel, and
several members of the
public works team planned
to visit businesses along
N. Mt. Juliet Road which
are in the construction
zone on Tuesday. He said
that while businesses on
the south end of town are
prospering he wants to hear
out and work with retailers
and restaurants toward the
north end of Mt. Juliet who
may be feeling the effects
of the road construction in
their cash registers.
“Now’s the time to
really step their game up, get
hard to work with marketing,
think outside the box,”
Martin said. “I know that’s
easier said than done, but
I’m working on a marketing
strategy for them, something
unique and special for them,
to figure out how to get folks’
attention again.”
Martin said he’s
looking into a “creative” plan
to lure shoppers, diners, and
patrons to the north side of
town, which is more Mom
and Pop than big box.
“Because it’s still
the same great service they
had before (the construction
started), still the same great
businesses and good places
to eat,” Martin said. “And
once all this is over with, it’ll
be better than ever.”
Martin added that a

regularly checking

Black Friday sale lucky for shelter pets

Black Friday wasn’t just a successful day for
people shopping for Christmas gifts and great deals:
those looking for pets had a free pass last weekend, and
animals at the Mt. Juliet shelter were in luck as each
and every one was adopted by Saturday.
In what City Manager Randy Robertson called
a “Black Friday Clearance Sale,” every single animal at
the Mt. Juliet Animal Shelter was adopted, a first for the
facility and a feat envied by animal shelters countrywide. Dr. Corey Jackson, D.D.S., L.L.C. Dr. Robert Archer, D.D.S., P.C.
Adoption fees were waived for the weekend, but the sale
only lasted through Friday since all 22 dogs and nine
cats found new homes.

this area embrace women’s
basketball and support
it,” said Summitt of the
crowd. “Rick (Insell) has
done a great job getting out,
recruiting and supporting
the game.” Middle Tennessee
might have had a few early
game jitters, including All-
American Alysha Clark;
Clark missed her first four
shots from the field and was
only 1-6 with 3 points in the
first half. With number 22 in
white and blue shutdown,
Summitt’s squad opened up
a deficit that was too hard to
overcome in the second half
resulting in a 69-52 Lady
Vols victory.
Summitt’s Lady Vols
controlled the first half with
ease led by forward Glory
Johnson’s 12 points and 6
rebounds.
“I worked really
hard in the off season with
my shot and even I was
surprised with some of the
outside shots that went in
tonight, it was just a good
night for me and the whole
team,” Johnson said. The
Lady Vols had a 35-24 lead
at the half.
The second half saw

high 23 points in the game.
The effort was not enough
however as the Lady Raiders
were never able to get the
lead down under double
digits in the second half in
route to the 69-52 win for
Tennessee. Johnson led the
Vols with 21 points to go
along with 12 rebounds.
Lady Raiders Head
Coach Rick Insell made it
clear that although he was
proud of his team’s effort, by
no means does the team like
losing to anyone, no matter
who it is.
“Do we like losing to
them? No, but we could have
easily scheduled some teams
we would have manhandled
but that isn’t the way you
prepare for big games down
the road such as the NCAA
Tournament, I think playing
teams like Tennessee and
LSU will help us down the
road.”
The win improved
Summitt’s career coaching
record to a staggering 1,009-
193. She is no doubt one of
the great coaches in all of
basketball and it was great
to have her here in town for
this very special night.

Thefts, Burglaries, Personal Safety and the Holiday Season
Even in a great and wonderful community like Mt. Juliet, auto burglaries, auto thefts and
robberies do occur. And with Christmas and the Holiday Season just around the corner, I felt it
important to remind all citizens of the importance of using good crime prevention techniques to
protect your hard earned investments and yourself. As we all know, thieves make their living by
stealing and robbing honest citizens of their property, all while still getting a good nights rest.
That’s why we must work together at combating and preventing thefts and burglaries.
The harder we work at preventing these crimes will make it even for harder for the
thieves and crooks to succeed with their dirty deeds. And as we all know, thieves don’t like to
work honestly, and they really don’t like to work hard. If you make yourself an easy target, they’ll
get you every time. So let’s join forces to combat these evil forces and win the battle against
crime.
Crime is a huge deterrent to Economic Development and the last thing any community
wants to be known for. With teamwork we can keep our community crime free and on the right
track of increased Economic Development and a prosperous business community.
Below is a list of crime prevention techniques:
1. Never leave your keys in your vehicle or leave your vehicle running while unattended.
2. Never hide your keys in your vehicle. Thieves think like we do and tend to hide things in
the same places.
3. Never leave shopping bags and valuables in your vehicle. If you must do so either lock
them in the trunk or out of view.
4. Park in well lighted areas.
5. Always lock your steering column.
6. Don’t advertise expensive stereo equipment or sound systems.
7. Use wheel locks on custom wheels and tires.
8. Invest in a car alarm.
9. Never leave your vehicle unlocked.
10. Know your vehicles tag and serial numbers for quick reference.
11. Have keys in hand and finger on the panic button in case you are attacked. The sounding
of the alarm can scare away attackers and alert other citizens.
12. Always be aware of your surroundings. Never get complacent.
These are only a few crime prevention tips. The best tip is to trust your instincts and use
common sense. Crime can happen anywhere at any time. Don’t give the crooks and thieves the
upper hand. Let’s join hands to stop this from happening in the first place. Mt. Juliet is a great
place to live, shop and play. Together we can keep it that way.

???What is a tax credit?
A tax credit is a direct reduction in tax liability owed by an individual to the
IRS. If you didn’t owe any taxes then IRS will issue a check for the tax credit
to you.
???Does this tax credit have to be repaid?
This tax credit does not require repayment unless the home, at any time during
the first 36 months, is no longer the individual’s primary residence.
???How do I claim the credit?
You may apply for the credit with your 2009 tax return or you may apply for
the credit sooner by filing an amended 2008 tax return for form 5405
???Can I claim the tax credit in advance of purchasing a property?
NO, the IRS has recently begun prosecuting people who have claimed credits
where a purchase had not taken place.
For more information or to start looking for your new home so that you
can take advantage of this great opportunity, Call Carol Palmer today at
