Staff Recommendation
APPROVE variances 1 & 2 because of topography, and because the proposed variances will not create a traffic hazard

APPROVE the Concept Plan subject to 13 conditions

1. Obtaining approval of the rezoning to PR (Planned Residential) at 1 - 3.3 dwelling units per acre from the Knox County Commission.
2. Connection to sanitary sewer and meeting any other relevant requirements of the Knox County Health Department.
3. Provision of street names which are consistent with the Uniform Street Naming and Addressing System within Knox County (County Ord. 91-1-102).
4. Elimination of one lot in each of the eyebrow streets (Roads "B" & "C") to allow shifting of the lot lines so that all lots are buildable lots.
5. Elimination of Lot 1 which due to the narrowness of the lot would require a building placement that is not in keeping with other houses within the subdivision.
6. The depth of the useable rear yards on Lots 9 - 12 needs to be increased. This can be achieved at the design plan phase of the development by further modification of the drainage plan.
7. The turnaround at the end of Road "A" needs to be redesigned with a pavement area of 20' x 60' with a right-of-way extension of 5' beyond the edge of pavement. This can be addressed during the design plan phase.
