Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that City Council APPROVE C-2 (Central Business District) / H-1 (Historical Overlay) zoning with attached design guidelines.
Adding the H-1 overlay with the design guidelines to this property is appropriate based on the assessment by MPC's historic preservation planner, whose designation report is attached. This rezoning application to add the H-1 overlay was approved by the Historic Zoning Commission on December 30, 2010. The Knoxville Historic Zoning Commission uses design guidelines that are based on the Secretary of Interior?s Standards for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings. The guidelines for the L&N Station and Freight Depot H-1 Historic Overlay District are attached.
