Approved

Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of Certificate 9-B-21-IH as submitted.

Property Notes / Work to be Completed
    • New subdivision plat. New plat addresses conflicts between the City Ward Map and tax parcel and creates a lot of record. A lot line dividing the property will be removed. The rectangular property extends approximately 165.24' from Barton Street and measures 100.12' wide on the rear property line and 99.81' wide on the front property line.

Applicable Guidelines
Heart of Knoxville Infill Housing Design Guidelines
    • 2. House Orientation and Side Yards
      The typical city lot prior to 1930 was 50 feet wide. This dimension led to the development of houses which were relatively narrow and had substantial depth. Craftsman style homes are good examples of this characteristic. Because of this, side yards were relatively narrow. Toward the mid-twentieth century, the increase in lot width was reflected by the development of the Ranch house.
    • - New housing should be proportional to the dimensions of the lot and other houses on the block.
      • Side yard setbacks should be similar to older houses on the block, keeping the rhythm of spacing between houses consistent.
      • On lots greater than 50' in width, consider recreating the original lot size.
