COMMENTS:
Weather stone Subdivision will consist of both attached and detached single family dwellings. A concept plan
for this project was approved in 2004. The applicant is now revising the plan by adding three additional
attached units. Approval of this plan will permit up 135 total dwellings in this project. That will break down to
57 detached single family lots and 78 attached single family dwelling lots. The development density of the
project will increase from 2.34 du/ac to 2.47 du/ac. The attached dwellings will be located on the eastern most
portion of the site adjoining Pellissippi Parkway. Pellissippi Parkway is designated as a Scenic Highway. Since
this site is located above the level of the Parkway, no structures will be permitted to exceed 35 feet in height if
they are located on lots that are within 1000 feet of the Parkway.
A large natural gas distribution pipeline crosses this site. The owners of this pipeline must review and approve
the grading plan for this project prior to commencing any grading on the property.
EFFECT OF THE PROPOSAL ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, SURROUNDING PROPERTY AND THE
COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE
1. The proposed subdivision will have minimal impact on local services since all utilities are in place to serve
this site.
2. The proposed attached and detached single-family subdivision is consistent in use and density with the
previous units of the subdivision.
CONFORMITY OF THE PROPOSAL TO CRITERIA ESTABLISHED BY THE KNOX COUNTY ZONING
ORDINANCE
1. The proposed attached and single-family lots meet the standards for development within a RP-1 (Planned
Residential) district and all other requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. The proposed lots within the
subdivision designated for detached units will have to be revised to meet the minimum requirements of the RP1 district
2. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the general standards for uses permitted on review: The
proposed development is consistent with the adopted plans and policies of the General Plan and Sector Plan.
The use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance. The use is compatible
with the character of the neighborhood where it is proposed. The use will not significantly injure the value of
adjacent property. The use will not draw additional traffic through residential areas.
3. The proposed subdivision density of 2.47 du/ac is consistent with the recommended zoning density of 1 - 3
du/ac.
CONFORMITY OF THE PROPOSAL TO ADOPTED PLANS
1. The Southwest County Sector Plan identifies the property as low density residential with a maximum density
of 5 du/ac. At a maximum proposed density of 2.47 du/ac, the subdivision is consistent with the Sector Plan.
MPC's approval or denial of this concept plan request is final, unless the action is appealed to Knoxville City
Council. The date of the Knoxville City Council hearing will depend on when the appeal application is filed.
MPC's approval or denial of this use on review request is final, unless the action is appealed to the Knoxville
Board of Zoning Appeals. The date of the Knoxville Board of Zoning Appeals hearing will depend on when the
appeal application is filed.
