Staff Recommendation

ADOPT RESOLUTION #4-D-11-SP, amending the Northeast County Sector Plan to LDR (Low Density Residential) and recommend that Knox County Commission also adopt the sector plan amendment. (See attached resolution, Exhibit A.)

---

All of the properties surrounding the subject parcel are either vacant or developed with residential uses. A good portion of the surrounding area is zoned Industrial, despite having very few, if any, industrial or other non-residential uses. The Eastbridge Business Park, located to the southeast, is appropriately zoned Industrial. A low density residential designation will allow the applicant's existing and proposed use for a residence. The plan designation being requested is less intense than the current designation.
