Disposition Summary
RECOMMEND that City Council APPROVE O-1 (Office, Medical & Related Services) zoning with no conditions.
Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that City Council APPROVE O-1 (Office, Medical & Related Services) zoning with no conditions.
The four existing conditions should be removed for the northeastern portion of the property, consistent with the attached map. The conditions should remain for the southwestern portion of the property, consistent with the attached map.
On October 9, 2014 MPC recommended O-1 with the following 4 conditions for the entire parcel:
1. Approximately seven lined parking spaces are currently located within public right-of-way at the front of the site along Cedar Ln. These parking spaces must be removed, in accordance with policies of the Knoxville Department of Engineering. All required and other parking must be located within the subject parcel.
2. Part of the existing, lined parking lot to the southwest of the building is also located within public right-of-way. This parking area must be redesigned in such a way to remove all parking from within public right-of-way and reduce the width of the driveway entrance to Cedar Ln., in accordance with current requirements of the Knoxville Department of Engineering.
3. No access to the site shall be taken from Ozark Ln. along the northwest property line, except for driveway access to detached dwellings in the R-1 zone, as recommended by staff.
4. Use of the property is limited to business and professional offices only. (Added by MPC)
Condition #1 has been addressed and the parking area along Cedar Ln. has been removed. Condition #2 and #3 are not applicable to this portion of the property. Condition #4 involves a change in City Policy, where they are encouraging MPC not to condition the use of properties, in general.
