Applicable Guidelines
Fort Sanders NC-1, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on September 13, 2000.
    • In the future, the Historic Zoning
    • Commisson shall take the following into
    • account in making their determination
    • about whether or not a building may
    • be demolished.
    • 1. PHYSICAL CONDITION:
    • The HZC may allow demolition if a
    • building has been condemned by
    • the City of Knoxville for structural
    • reasons, or if the HZC finds that
    • structural problems and
    • associated costs to address the
    • problems warrant demolition; the
    • decision shall be based on an
    • assessment by a licensed
    • structural engineer or architect.
    • 2. ARCHITECTURAL INTEGRITY:
    • The HZC may allow demolition
    • if the original design is so
    • compromised that historic

    • cannot, in the Commission's
    • view, be reasonably re-established.
