According to Article 4.10. -- Section 2 of the Knox County Zoning Ordinance (Development Standards for Uses Permitted on Review), the proposed use "must be specially placed into the development pattern which exists at the time of their arrival." Because this site was abandoned as a mining operation, its mining pit filled for reuse of the site, and the previous and current ownership not being mining operators, the use of this site for an expanded mining operation is out of character with the neighborhood in which it is located and does not fit within the development (use) pattern which exists today.
