Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that City Council APPROVE RP-2 (Planned Residential) zoning at the requested density of up to 30 du/ac, removing the previously approved condition of 7-A-18-RZ that stated that no access shall be permitted to Chapman Hwy.
This site is appropriate to be developed under RP-2 zoning at up to 30 du/ac without the condition of limited access to Chapman Highway, since an adjacent property owner has an access easement through the property to the intersection of E. Young High Pike and Chapman Highway. The required use on review for RP-2 will allow for design issues to be addressed through staff review and discussions between the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT), City of Knoxville Engineering and MPC staff.
Disposition Summary
RECOMMEND that City Council APPROVE RP-2 (Planned Residential) zoning at the requested density of up to 30 du/ac, removing the previously approved condition of 7-A-18-RZ that stated that no access shall be permitted to Chapman Hwy.

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.
