Case Notes
− +Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that County Commission APPROVE PC (Planned Commercial) zoning. (Applicant requested CA (General Business) zoning.)Commercial uses are appropriate at this location. Staff recommends PC zoning, rather than the requested CA, because of the site's proximity to the Ramsey House and grounds. The site is located at the intersection of the only access road to the Ramsey House along E. Gov. John Sevier Hwy. PC zoning will allow MPC to review a development plan for the site, at which time staff may recommend appropriate landscaping, lighting, access and signage in order to remain compatible and functional with the Ramsey House property. Staff also recommends removal of the HZ overlay on the property, consistent with the Historic Zoning Commission's decision on April 17, 2014.
