1. Connection to sanitary sewer and meeting any other relevant requirements of the Knox County Health Department.
2. Provision of street names which are consistent with the Uniform Street Naming and Addressing System within Knox County (County Ord. 91-1-102).
3. Placing a note on the final plat that all structures will have to be located at least 50' from the top of the sinkholes/closed contour areas identified on the plat. Construction within the 50' setback may be permitted if a geotechnical study prepared by a registered engineer states that building within the 50' sinkhole buffer is acceptable and the study is approved by the Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works. Engineered footings may be required for any structures within the 50' sinkhole buffer.
4. Combining Lots 58 and 113 with the adjoining lots since building sites do not exist on those lots outside of the sinkholes/closed contour areas.
5. Meeting all applicable requirements and obtaining all required permits from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation for any alteration to the sinkholes.
6. Obtaining off-site drainage easements as determined by the Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works.
7. Meeting all applicable requirements of the Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works.
8. Revising the concept plan to show how legal access is provided to Tax Parcel 077 12804. It appears that this lot was subdivided on November 29, 2006 by deed only and did not go through the platting process as required. It needs to be determined if access should be provided to Road A.
9. Placing a note on the final plat that all lots will have access only to the internal street system.
10. Meeting all requirements of the approved use-on-review development plan.
11. A final plat application based on this concept plan will not be accepted for review by the MPC until certification of design plan approval has been submitted to the MPC staff.
