2. Providing street names consistent with the Uniform Street Naming and Addressing System within Knox County (County Ord. 91-1-102).
3. If during design plan approval or construction of the development, it is discovered that unforeseen off-site improvements within the right-of-way are necessary as caused by the development, the developer will either enter into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the County for these improvements or reimburse the County for their direct expenses (if completed by County crews) to make corrections deemed necessary.
4. Before recording the final plat for the subdivision, establishing a property owners association or other legal entity responsible for maintaining common facilities, such as common areas, amenities, private roads, and/or stormwater drainage systems.

6. Meeting all applicable requirements of the Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works.
7. Implementing the recommendations of the Sherrill Boulevard Business Park Traffic Impact Study (TIS) (JMT, 7/24/2024) as required by the City of Knoxville and Knox County Engineering and Public Works during the design plan phase. If the TIS is further revised, it must be submitted to the Planning staff for review and approval by all applicable agencies. All offsite road improvements must be completed prior to recording plats at the expense of the applicant and compliant with Engineering and Public Works' road standards.
8. The cul-de-sac right-of-way radius will be determined by Engineering and Public Works during the design plan phase.
(Correction 6/9/2025) - Condition #7 added the sentence, "All offsite road improvements must be completed prior to recording plats at the expense of the applicant and compliant with Engineering and Public Works' road standards."
-----------------------------------------
Access to the development is from Sherrill Boulevard, a four-lane minor collector street. The Concept Plan of Sherrill Business Park was approved in 2003 for 9 lots (10-SA-23-C). The public road was built, but the property was never subdivided or developed.

The 12.38 acre property is zoned CB/TO, and the minimum parcel size is 1 acre in the TO zone. The CB zone has no minimum lot size for nonresidential uses. The proposed lots range in size from 1 acre to 2.94 acres. Development of the lots will require review and approval for compliance with the TTCDA Design Guidelines.
