City of Knoxville · City Council

Development & land use — District 1

Every rezoning, plan amendment, and land-use case the City Council has taken up on the published record. Each case reproduces the request as filed — the applicant, the zones, the printed location — and links every vote to its decision page and the source minutes. Nothing here is characterized, estimated, or inferred.

← All cases

What this shows — and what it doesn't. These are land-use cases as recorded in the published zoning-session minutes. It is not a complete inventory of development activity — a case appears only once the City Council takes it up in a published meeting, and building permits, site plans, and planning-commission-only items are outside this record.

Excludes 114 motions not yet published. Contested and deferred votes publish only after review, so a case can read “heard” until its outcome clears the queue.

Filtered to cases whose official title prints “District 1”. 30 cases with no printed district appear only in the full list.

How these are recorded. Every field is copied verbatim from the official minutes — the applicant, the requested zone change, and the printed address are the filing’s own words, never a description we wrote. A case’s status restates its latest published vote and predicts nothing.
