PC (Planned Commercial)The PC, Planned Commercial Zone, is intended for a unified grouping of commercial buildings which do not require or desire a central business district location. It is the objective of this zone to achieve the highest quality site design, building arrangement, landscaping and traffic circulation patterns possible.
RequestedPR
PR (Planned Residential)The regulations established in this zone are intended to provide optional methods of land development which encourage more imaginative solutions to environmental design problems. Residential areas thus established would be characterized by a unified building and site development program, open space for recreation and provision for commercial, religious, educational, and cultural facilities which are integrated with the total project by unified architectural and open space treatment.

− +Disposition Summary
RECOMMEND the Knox County Commission APPROVE PR (Planned Residential) zoning at a density up to 19 dwelling units per acreStaff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that County Commission APPROVE PR (Planned Residential) zoning at a density of up to 19 du/ac, as requested.The recommended PR zoning is compatible with surrounding development and zoning, is consistent with the NCO-4 mixed used district plan designation (if amended as recommended), and will allow up to 19 dwelling units per acre as proposed for the site. PR zoning is a preferable zone for this site because it allows clustering of units in the less-constrained portions of the site and requires development plan approval by MPC prior to construction.
