Case Notes
− +Disposition Summary
Recommend the Knox County Commission approve OB (Office, Medical, and Related Services)Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that County Commission APPROVE OB (Office, Medical & Related Services) zoning.OB zoning is appropriate for this property that is located on a major collector street and is adjacent to an assisted living facility to the north. The site is located just south of an office/commercial node at the intersection with Oak Ridge Hwy. Establishment of OB at this location is a logical extension of zoning from the north and provides a transition between commercial and residential uses.
