Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that Knox County Commission approve PR (Planned Residential) zoning at up to 5 du/ac. for this site consistent with the current sector plan.
PR zoning @ up to 5 du/ac. is consistent with surrounding residential development and the adopted sector plan designation of LDR and STPA for the site. The staff does not support the applicant's request for MPC approval of a resolution to amend the North County Sector Plan to show MDR (Medium Density Residential) designation for the site to allow PR zoning at up to 12 du/ac. A density of 12 units per acre is out of character with the surrounding proposed and established residential development pattern that includes both rural and low density residential uses.
Disposition Summary
RECOMMEND that Knox County Commission approve PR (Planned Residential) zoning up to 5 dwelling units per acre, consistent with the current sector plan designation of Low Density Residential.
