Staff Recommendation
ADOPT RESOLUTION # 1-D-19-SP, amending the Central City Sector Plan to LI (Light Industrial) designation and recommend that City Council also adopt the sector plan amendment (See attached resolution, Exhibit A).
Staff recommends an extension of the LI (Light Industrial) designation from west. The applicant originally requested a sector plan amendment to HI (Heavy Industrial). However, after having discussions with the applicant,staff and the applicant are more comfortable with LI, a designation that still permits I-3 zoning.

This program aims to increase transit in disadvantaged communities and reduce the impact of climate change. Knoxville-Knox County Planning, in partnership with KAT and the city, will develop a Transit-based Opportunities Map to identify locations for development along key transit corridors that target attainable housing and employment opportunities. Transit-oriented development (TOD) prioritizes efficient, equitable, sustainable development. It also helps reduce poverty and further benefit communities by:

  • Encouraging greater transit use,
  • Reducing automobile use,
  • Maximizing existing infrastructure
  • Reducing emissions, and
  • Providing mixed and low-income housing options.
