Staff Recommendation
ADOPT RESOLUTION #4-C-18-SP, amending the Central City Sector Plan map to TDR (Traditional Neighborhood) sector plan designation, and recommend the Knoxville City Council also approve the sector plan amendment, to make it operative.
TDR is a logical extension of the plan designation from the north and will be compatible with the surrounding development and zoning pattern.

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.
