Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND Planning Commission APPROVE A (Agricultural) zoning.
Staff recommends A (Agricultura) zoning because it is consistent with the South County Sector Plan designation of LDR (Low Density Residential) for this property. It also was not part of the final plat for the Wells Creek subdivision (10-SC-17-F), so the acreage was not used in the density calculation for that subdivision, thus the rezoning back to A (Agricultural) for this 4.74 acres does not provide a greater density than the previous rezoning up to PR 5 du/ac allowed.
Disposition Summary
RECOMMEND Planning Commission APPROVE A (Agricultural) zoning.

Case History

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.
