      A, HZ

      A (Agricultural), HZ (Historic Overlay)

      This zone provides for a wide range of agricultural and related uses as well as residential uses with low population densities and other compatible uses which generally require large areas or open spaces.

      The HZ, Historical Overlay Zone, designates areas and structures of sufficient historical and cultural significance to warrant public protection. It is the intent to preserve and protect such structures in their present location or to provide for their moving to a special HZ, Historical Overlay Zone, location, and to require that new construction, alteration or use shall be appropriate to their character. It is not intended that the use of these structures shall be regulated by this zone.

1. Prior to any vegetation removal and/or grading work, a wetland determination should be conducted to identify the boundaries of the wetlands within the subject parcel unless otherwise instructed by the Knox County Engineering and Public Works department.
