Neighborhood Impacted by New Land Use Plan

Knox Planning (Advanceknox.org) has undergone a multi-year effort to develop a Growth Policy Plan for the future of Knox County. This plan addresses zoning, land use, transportation, and other issues. The process has completed and adopted through the 2nd of 3 phases, which dramatically changes the designated land use of our neighborhood. Please look at the drawing attached to this post and follow the link to get more information about the descriptions of these new land uses. TN – Traditional Neighborhood (pg. 30), SR-Suburban Residential (pg. 33) & SMR-Suburban Mixed Residential (pg. 34). https://advanceknox.org/resources/final%20plan/Knox%20County%20Comprehensive%20Land%20Use%20and%20Transportation%20Plan.pdf. For those in the neighborhood that have concerns about how these changes impact Lakemoor Hills, our County Commissioner has offered to assist us to help update the plan. He stated, “I need broad support from the community to begin this update.” More information will follow about how you can respond and get involved.
