Disposition Summary
Approve the variance to allow the creation of one additional lot on a previously approved joint permanent easement (JPE) without requiring the JPE to the meet the applicable requirements of Section 3.03.E, based on the following evidence of hardship.
1. The subject parcels and the existing JPE are the result of a Last Will and Testament referenced on the face of the survey. The additional lot being created is for a family member, as stated by the applicant.
2. The properties maintain no direct road frontage and are currently served by an existing JPE and network of driveways within the same. Only the family properties are served by this network of driveways, and the situation is unique to these properties.

Knox County Engineering & Public Works department supports this variance for only one additional lot.

Approve the request to create three lots in the A (Agriculture) zone (resulting in total 7 lots being served by the existing JPE), subject to one condition.
