Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that County Commission APPROVE PR (Planned Residential) zoning at a density of up to 5 du/ac. (Applicant requested 12 du/ac.)
The requested density of up to 12 du/ac is not necessary for the proposed development of an assisted living facility. The recommended zoning and density will allow MPC consideration of an assisted living facility as a use on review. The recommended density will eliminate the potential for the development of 84 independent apartment units, which may or may not be supported by residents of neighboring detached residential homes.
Disposition Summary
Recommend the Knox County Commission approve PR (Planned Residential) zoning at a density up to 5 dwelling units per acre.
