What these zones are, in the county’s own words
- RA — Low Density Residential Zone
- “This residential zone provides for residential areas with low population densities. These areas are intended to be defined and protected from encroachment of uses not performing a function necessary to the residential environment.” — §5.11.01, The Zoning Ordinance of Knox County, Tennessee (as amended through 2023-08-28)
- CA — General Business Zone
- “This zone is for general retail business and services but not for manufacturing or for processing materials other than farm products, except that portable sawmills are allowed.” — §5.31.01, The Zoning Ordinance of Knox County, Tennessee (as amended through 2023-08-28)
Quoted verbatim from the ordinance’s “general description” of each zone — what a zone permits in full is defined by the complete ordinance text at the link.
