Details of Action

1. Approval of the rezoning request before Knox County Commission to PR (Planned Residential) at a density up to 4 du/ac (1-C-06-RZ).
2. Revising the concept plan pending the determination by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation on the status of the depression in the area of proposed lots 8 and 9. If it is determined to be a sinkhole, the sinkhole and a 50' setback around the sinkhole will have to be identified on the plan and Lot 9 will have to be combined with the adjoining lots. A geotechnical report prepared by a registered engineer will be required to determine soil stability in the 50' setback area around the sinkhole. The report must be reviewed and approved by the Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works prior to final plat approval. Engineered footings may be required for these areas. No building is allowed inside the hatchered contour of the sinkholes. If the feature is not a sinkhole, the proposed lots can be developed.
3. Meeting all applicable requirements of the approved concept subdivision plan.
4. Meeting all applicable requirements of the Knox County Zoning Ordinance.

With the conditions noted, this plan meets the requirements for approval of the concept plan in the PR zone and the other criteria for approval of a use-on-review
