Staff Recommendation
Approve the use permitted on review for the proposed mobile home park, subject to 5 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) Providing a stream determination study to the Knox County Department of Engineering and Public Works for review and approval regarding a potential stream located east of and under the proposed Road A. If it is determined that there is a stream, the required stream buffers must be provided and mobile home spaces may have to be eliminated. Changes to the location of mobile home spaces or the internal road system may require a new Use on Review by the Planning Commission.
4) Providing all required fencing, landscaping and parking layout plans for review and approval by Planning Commission staff before permits are issued.
5) Any aspect of the mobile home park standards (Sec. 4.20 of the Knox County Zoning Ordinance) that are not explicitly shown on the plan must be verified during permitting with review and approval by Planning Commission staff. These include, but are not limited to, guest parking spaces, location of lighting standards, and external boundary enclosure (wall, fence or hedge).
With the conditions noted, this plan meets the requirements for approval of a mobile home park in the RB district, and the criteria for approval of a use on review.
Disposition Summary
Approve the use permitted on review for the proposed mobile home park, subject to 5 conditions.

Case History

This program aims to increase transit in disadvantaged communities and reduce the impact of climate change. Knoxville-Knox County Planning, in partnership with KAT and the city, will develop a Transit-based Opportunities Map to identify locations for development along key transit corridors that target attainable housing and employment opportunities. Transit-oriented development (TOD) prioritizes efficient, equitable, sustainable development. It also helps reduce poverty and further benefit communities by:

  • Encouraging greater transit use,
  • Reducing automobile use,
  • Maximizing existing infrastructure
  • Reducing emissions, and
  • Providing mixed and low-income housing options.
