What these zones are, in the county’s own words
- RB — General Residential Zone
- “This residential zone provides for medium population density. The principal uses of land may range from houses to multi-dwelling structures or developments. Certain uses which are more compatible functionally with intensive residential uses than with commercial uses are permitted.” — §5.12.01, The Zoning Ordinance of Knox County, Tennessee (as amended through 2023-08-28)
- OB — Office, Medical, and Related Services Zone
- “This zone is intended to provide areas for professional and business offices and related activities that require separate buildings and building groups surrounded by landscaped yards and open areas. The intent herein is to provide centralized, compact locations for business offices, clinics, medical, and dental offices near residential neighborhoods.” — §5.41.01, The Zoning Ordinance of Knox County, Tennessee (as amended through 2023-08-28)
