Case Notes
− +The Planning Commission approved RP-1 (Planned Residential District) zoning with up to 24 du/ac.
Staff recommends approval of the requested RP-3 (Planned Residential District) zoning since it is consistent with the Central City Sector Plan and allows uses similar to those in existence in the neighborhood.
The applicant amended their request at the meeting to RP-1 zoning, and staff supports the RP-1 zoning (allows up to 24 du/ac).
What's next?
− +After the Planning Commission
Because of its location in the City, it will be heard by Knoxville City Council.
