Disposition Summary
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, under Article 3.2.C of the City of Knoxville Zoning Ordinance, remove the (C) designation for parcels 070JJ009, 010, & 011, at address 3030, 3042, and 3038 Forestdale Avenue, to correct a map error.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, under Article 3.2.C of the City of Knoxville Zoning Ordinance, remove the (C) designation for parcels 070JJ009, 010, & 011, at address 3030, 3042, and 3038 Forestdale Avenue, to correct a map error.
The (C) designation on the zoning map indicates the presence of a previously approved planned district per Article 1.4.G. This designation was applied upon the effective date of the current zoning ordinance on January 1, 2020. The purpose of this designation is to provide a visual cue that plans may have been approved for the parcels with this designation prior to the adoption of the current code.
Under Transition Rules, Article 1.4.G, all previously approved planned districts were to remain in effect, subject to all plans, regulations, and conditions of their approval after the current zoning code became effective. The code goes on to say that changes to a previously approved planned district, or request to remove a planned district, shall be made through the special use process.
There are some instances where the (C) designation has been applied, but a development plan was never approved for the property. Therefore, there are no previous plans or conditions placed on those properties. In these instances, the City has determined that the planned district designation can be removed per Article 3.2.C. (Administrative Mapping Errors), and the property can be developed according to the standards of the current zoning.
An administrative map error was discovered when reviewing parcels 070JJ009, 070JJ010, and 070JJ011, at address 3030, 3042, and 3038 Forestdale Ave. These parcels were previously zoned RP-1 (Planned Residential). The area is now zoned RN-2 with a (C) designation. Prior to the adoption of the new zoning ordinance, this property never had an approved development plan associated with it.
