Disposition Summary
Approve the One Year Plan amendment to the NC (Neighborhood Commercial) land use classification because it is an extension of this classification and is compatible with surrounding development.
Staff Recommendation
Approve the One Year Plan amendment to the NC (Neighborhood Commercial) land use classification because it is an extension of this classification and is compatible with surrounding development.
PURSUANT TO THE CITY OF KNOXVILLE ONE YEAR PLAN, CHAPTER 1, PLAN AMENDMENT, ONE OF THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA MUST BE MET FOR ALL ONE YEAR PLAN AMENDMENTS (may meet any of these):
AN ERROR IN THE PLAN:
1. There are no apparent errors or omissions in the One Year Plan with regards to the subject property. However, the NC classification would be a minor extension of this classification from the north side.
A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN, OR THE COMPLETION OF A PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT (ROAD, PARK, SEWER), WHICH CHANGES THE BASIS ON WHICH THE PLAN WAS DEVELOPED FOR AN AREA:
1. Lifespring Lane, a median-divided local street that provides access to the subject parcel as well as three other properties in the Arlington Place mixed use subdivision, was constructed in 2016.
2. The Washington Pike improvement project (projected bid date: January 2026) proposes five driving lanes with shared paths for bikes and pedestrians at this section of the minor arterial street that will further improve the connectivity of this area.
CHANGE IN PUBLIC POLICY, UNANTICIPATED BY THE PLAN:
1. There are no known public policy changes pertaining to the subject property and its land use designation.
NEW INFORMATION (INCLUDING NEW PLANS AND STUDIES PRODUCED BY KNOXVILLE-KNOX COUNTY PLANNING) BECOMING AVAILABLE, WHICH REVEALS THE NEED FOR A PLAN AMENDMENT:
1. There are no new studies or plans specific to this area or the NC land use that apply to this request.
