Staff Recommendation
DENY PR (Planned Residential) zoning.
In keeping with the intent and mission of the Technology Corridor, the areas zoned BP/TO should be maintained. This is especially important on properties that front on and have exposure from Pellissippi Parkway, as is the case with this property. The proposed PR zoning at this location would compromise the potential for future business and technology park uses on this and surrounding BP/TO-zoned sites. TTCDA denied a Certificate of Appropriateness for rezoning from BP/TO to PR/TO at 5 du/ac on 5/5/14 (5-B-14-TOR). MPC has not considered rezoning of this property in the past. If approved, future residential property owners may oppose appropriate business and technology park uses on the other nearby BP/TO zoned properties, which would require use on review plan approval at a public meeting.
Disposition Summary
