Case Notes
− +Staff Recommendation
DENY GC (General Commercial) one year plan designation.Commercial uses are inappropriate at this location along Western Ave. There are existing under-utilized commercial nodes to the east and west of the site which are more appropriate for commercial development. MPC staff recommended approval of a rezoning and one year plan amendment request in July of 2007 (7-E-07-RZ/7-C-07-PA) for medium density residential uses and RP-1 zoning at a density of 16 du/ac. Knoxville City Council denied medium density residential use. MPC staff recommended against the applicant's request for a general commercial land use designation and continues to recommend that residential uses are appropriate at this location. The Planning Commission recommended approving parcels 36, 37 and 38 and denying parcels 39, 40 & 41.
