Staff Recommendation
ADOPT RESOLUTION # 10-B-18-SP, amending the East County Sector Plan to O (Office) and recommend that County Commission also adopt the sector plan amendment. (See attached resolution, Exhibit A.)
The existing sector plan designation of LDR (Low Density Residential) does not currently have a transition buffer land use plan designation between the surrounding LI (Light Industrial) and HIM (Mining) designations. O (Office) adjacent to the LI (Light Industrial) is an appropriate transition to buffer the adjacent residential neighborhood.

Case History

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.
