Staff Recommendation
ADOPT RESOLUTION #7-H-17-SP, amending the Northwest County Sector Plan to LDR (Low Density Residential) and recommend that Knox County Commission also adopt the sector plan amendment. (See attached resolution, Exhibit A.)
The subject property is surrounded by Agricultural zoning and an Agricultural sector plan designation. However, because the property is less than a half mile from the Planned Growth Area and PR development at 3 du/ac, it is appropriate to amend the sector plan map to allow low density residential development on this property, as long as consistent with the policies of the Growth Policy Plan.
Disposition Summary
Adopt Resolution #7-H-17-SP, amending the Northwest County Sector Plan to LDR (Low Density Residential) and recommend the Knox County Commission also adopt the sector plan amendment.
