Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that County Commission APPROVE PR (Planned Residential) / TO (Technology Overlay) zoning at a density of up to 8.5 du/ac, subject to 1 condition. (Applicant requested OB/TO)
1. No clearing or grading of the site shall be permitted until a use on review development plan has been approved by MPC.
With the recommended condition, PR/TO zoning is consistent with the sector plan designation for the area and will allow uses compatible with the surrounding land uses and zoning pattern. PR will allow residential development of the site, but will require the review of a development plan by MPC, which was requested by MPC at the March 14, 2013 meeting. It is necessary because of slope and access concerns, as well as to provide adequate buffering and an opportunity for comment from the representatives of the Harrison Springs Subdivision to the south. The recommended density of up to 8.5 du/ac is based on application of the residential density and land disturbance guidelines from the Knoxville Knox County Hillside and Ridgetop Protection Plan (HRPP). See attached slope analysis, slope map and excerpt from the HRPP.
Disposition Summary
