Whereas, the metropolitan planning commission of Knoxville and Knox County, after a comprehensive study and mapping of present land uses, development, and development trends, has prepared, adopted, and recommended zones and appropriate regulations to be enforced therein, and public hearings have been held, at which all owners of property affected were given ample opportunity, after public notice as required by law, to file their protests or criticisms thereon, if any.
