Case Notes

Staff Recommendation
DENY variance 1 - 3 because hardship has not been documented (see comment below).
APPROVE variance 4 since the adjoining property is not under applicants control.

DENY the Concept Plan.

The Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works has recommended denial of the variances because a hardship has not been documented. Due to the number of lots that will be served by this Joint Permanent Easement (JPE), both existing and proposed, it is the County's position that the JPE should meet street design standards. With the larger lot sizes, the Knox County Zoning Ordinance and Minimum Subdivision Regulations would allow for further subdivision of the property.
