Details of Action
APPROVE the Certificate of Appropriateness for a rezoning to OB (Office, Medical & Related Services) / TO (Technology Overlay) zoning, subject to one condition.
1. Requiring a traffic impact study for the future development.
Staff Recommendation
APPROVE the Certificate of Appropriateness for a rezoning to OB (Office, Medical & Related Services) / TO (Technology Overlay) zoning, subject to one condition.
1. Use on review approval of a development plan will be required by MPC prior to any disturbance of the site, including clearing and grading.
With the above condition, this site is appropriate to be rezoned OB, consistent with the recommended land uses in the Mixed Use Special District - Pellissippi State Community College/Beaver Creek (MU-SD NWCO-6). Use on review development plan approval is necessary because of the steep slopes on the property and the need for a greenway easement along Solway Road for the Knox to Oak Ridge Greenway. Avoiding the disturbance of slopes greater than 40 percent will be required as part of use on review approval.
