Case Notes
− +Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that City Council APPROVE C-4 (General Commercial) zoning, subject to 2 conditions.1. Use of the site is limited to C-1 uses plus a conveyor type car wash facility.
2. The building setbacks, signage, site lighting and landscaping requirements of the Knox County CN zone will apply to this development (sections 5.38.06, 5.38.07, 5.38.08, 5.38.09, 5.38.11 and 5.38.14 of the Knox County Zoning Ordinance) (See attached ordinance sections).
With the above conditions, staff maintains that this site can be compatibly used for a conveyer car wash business. This area around the intersection of Murphy Rd. and Washington Pike is already established as an appropriate commercial node serving surrounding residential areas.
