Unified Development Ordinance

Knox County amended the Growth Policy Plan and adopted the Comprehensive Land Use and Transportation Plan in April 2024. Check back soon updates!

The next step in the process is for the county to create a Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). This single document will include regulations related to:

  • Zoning
  • Buildings
  • Stormwater
  • Roads and bridges
  • Traffic and vehicles
  • Fire prevention and protection.
