Staff Recommendation

Withdraw the concept plan as requested by the applicant.

---

This concept plan was approved by the Planning Commission in February 2022 and was remanded back to the Planning Commission by Knox County Chancery Court in September 2023. The applicant is withdrawing this application and has submitted a new concept plan and development plan application for the same property (12-SF-23-C / 12-G-23-DP -- Lantern Park).
----------------------------------------------------
This proposal is a 26-lot subdivision that revises the 18-lot Mission Hills subdivision approved in September 2021 (7-SA-21-C / 7-C-21-UR). The new proposal includes an additional 1.87 acres along Mission Hill Lane on the east side of the property and is part of the Hoppe property that wraps around the subject site. A concept plan for the Hoppe property was also recently approved (9-SB-21-C / 9-C-21-UR). Removing the 1.87 acres does not make the Hoppe property exceed its maximum allowed density of 3 du/ac. The proposed changes to the concept plan are listed below.

Changes Since The Previous Concept Plan Approval
1) Increasing the number of lots from 18 to 26.
2) The development now has frontage on Mission Hill Lane.
3) Five (5) lots directly access Mission Hill Lane.
4) The applicant's surveyor verified that the existing Hardin Valley Road right-of-way width is 25 ft from the road centerline along this frontage. The parcel map shows a 40 ft right-of-way from the road centerline, and it was unknown if this was correct. The applicant is dedicating 35 ft right-of-way from the road centerline.
5) The number of detention ponds has been reduced from 2 to 1.
