2704 Sevier Avenue, Knoxville, TN

Connolly Development Ventures LLC is seeking a South City Sector Plan amendment at 2704 Sevier Avenue from Medium Density Residential to Neighborhood Commercial, appealing to City Council after a unanimous 10-0 denial by the Knoxville-Knox County Planning Commission (with staff also recommending denial).
