Staff Recommendation
APPROVE the development plan for up to three two-family (duplex) structures on individual lots, subject to 5 conditions.
1. Meeting all applicable requirements of the City of Knoxville Zoning Ordinance, including but not limited to the driveway standards.
2. Providing a revised site plan and building elevations for Planning Staff review and approval before building permits are issued for Lots 2 and 3. The revised plans must show the garages moved to the middle of the structure and a single driveway that leads directly to the garages that meets the zoning standards. The architectural design should be in-keeping with that shown on the attached plans. The structure and driveways on Lot 1 are not required to be modified as part of this condition.
3. Locating the driveway on Lot 1 so it does not encroach on the Colonial Pipe Line easement, or provide documentation to the City of Knoxville Department of Engineering during permitting review that the company has agreed to allow the encroachment.
4. Meeting all applicable requirements of the City of Knoxville Dept. of Engineering.
5. Approval by City Council of the amendments to Article 1.4.G. (Transition Rules, Previously Approved Planned Districts) of the City of Knoxville Zoning Ordinance, to allow modifications of development plans in previously approved Planned Districts to be reviewed and approved as a Special Use application by the Planning Commission. This Special Use approval shall not be effective until Article 1.4 has been amended by City Council.

With conditions noted above, this request meets the requirements of the former RP-1 zone (current zoning RN-2/PD), the previously approved development plan, and the other criteria for approval of a special use for modifications to previously approved planned districts (per the pending amendment to Article 1.4.G).
Disposition Summary
APPROVE the development plan for up to three two-family (duplex) structures on individual lots, subject to 5 conditions.
