Disposition Summary
Approved with Conditions
Approve the concept plan, subject to 9 conditions.
1. Meeting all applicable requirements of the Knox County Zoning Ordinance.
2. Meeting all applicable requirements of the Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works.
3. Connecting to sanitary sewer and meeting other relevant utility provider requirements.
4. Providing street names that are consistent with the Uniform Street Naming and Addressing System within Knox County (County Ord. 91-1-102).
5. 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. 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, 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.
7. Relocating the existing driveway on Lot 18 to Ivywood Lane, as required by the condition of the previously approved development plan (6-D-26-DP).
8. Providing a note on the final plat that lots 17 and 18 shall be restricted from accessing Andes Road.
9. Certifying that the required sight distance is available along Old Andes Road in both directions at the Road 'A' intersection, with documentation provided to Knox County Engineering and Public Works for review and approval during the design plan phase.
Last month, the Planning Commission approved a development plan to carve out the existing house from the subject parcel north of Middlebrook Pike, with a condition to relocate its access to Ivywood Lane (6-D-26-DP). The applicant proposes subdividing the remaining property into 17 detached residential lots, each with access via a new public road off Old Andes Road, for a total of 18 detached dwelling units on 6.62 acres. The house is included in this proposal again because it counts towards the allowable density of this subdivision.
