CITY COUNCIL MEMO
2025-926
TO: Mayor Rawn and City Council
THRU: Keith Macedo, Chief of Staff
Jonathan Curth, Development Services Director
Jessica Masters, Planning Director
FROM: Wesley Frank, Planner
SUBJECT: RZN-2025-0020: Rezoning (553 E. MCCLINTON ST./BATES & SIEMEK, 563):
Submitted by WESLEY BATES for property located at 553 E. MCCLINTON ST in
WARD 1. The property is zoned NC, NEIGHBORHOOD CONSERVATION and contains
approximately 0.20 acres. The request is to rezone the property to RI-U,
RESIDENTIAL INTERMEDIATE -URBAN.
RECOMMENDATION:
City Planning staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of a request to rezone the subject
property as described and shown in the attached Exhibits 'A' and 'B'.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located in south Fayetteville approximately 400 feet east of the South Wood Avenue
and East McClinton Street intersection. The property contains 0.20 acres and is developed with a single-family
dwelling that Washington County records indicate was constructed in 1961. An accessory dwelling unit was
permitted on the property in 2024 and is under construction. The property is zoned NC, Neighborhood
Conservation, which it received in 2008. The property is not located in an overlay district.
Request: The request is to rezone the subject property from NC, Neighborhood Conservation to RI-U,
Residential Intermediate -Urban. The applicant has stated that they intend to split the lot upon the completion of
building an accessory dwelling unit.
Public Comment: Staff received two comments about the rezoning. Both individuals voiced their opposition
stating that a rezone of this property would negatively impact the character of the area, have issues with
drainage, parking, and issues with the building of the accessory dwelling unit.
Land Use Compatibility. Staff finds the proposed zoning to be compatible with current land use and zoning
patterns. While the surrounding neighborhood primarily consists of detached single-family dwellings and
townhomes, there are attached dwellings and nonresidential uses close to this site. The detached single-family
dwellings are zoned NC, Neighborhood Conservation; the attached townhomes to the south are zoned DG,
Downtown General. Both NC and RI-U allow for the by -right development of detached single-family dwellings
and accessory dwelling units. RI-U allows for the by -right development of additional dwelling types (two-, three-
, and four -family dwelling units) with density limited by form (building height primarily) and development
standards such as parking. RI-U zoning would also allow for the creation of smaller lots (18 feet) compared to
NC (40 feet).
Mailing address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville, AR 72701
Land Use Plan Analysis: Staff finds the applicant's request to be consistent with the City's land use plans. The
subject property is designated as a Residential Neighborhood area in the City Plan 2040 Future Land Use
Map. Staff finds that a rezoning from NC to RI-U could support that designation since a rezoning to RI-U would
allow for a wider variety of housing types. Staff also finds the requested rezoning to be aligned with Goals 1, 4,
and 6 of City Plan 2040 since it would encourage residential infill in an area that has a moderate infill score of 7
and is in close proximity to a park, paved trail, and a bus route. Staff also find the proposed rezoning to be
generally aligned with the Walker Park Neighborhood Plan since it would retain a balance of housing options
and enable residents to live in the same neighborhood as their housing needs change.
CITY PLAN 2040 INFILL MATRIX: City Plan 2040's Infill Matrix indicates a score of 7 for this site. The
following elements of the matrix contribute to the score:
• Adequate Fire Response (Station 3, 1050 S. Happy Hollow Rd.)
• Near Sewer Main (eight -inch main along East McClinton Street)
• Near Water Main (six-inch along East McClinton Street)
• Near City Park (Willow Bend Park)
• Near Paved Trail (Waxflower Trail)
• Near ORT Bust Stop ( Morningside & Fairlane)
• Within Master Plan Area (Walker Park Neighborhood)
DISCUSSION:
At the June 9, 2025 Planning Commission meeting, a motion to forward with a recommendation of approval
passed with a vote of 8-0-0. Commissioner Garlock made the motion and Commissioner Cabe provided the
second. Commissioners did not have any comment on the item. No members of the public spoke at the
meeting.

MEETING DATE: June 9, 2025
SUBJECT: RZN-2025-0020: Rezoning (553 E. MCCLINTON ST./BATES & SIEMEK,
563): Submitted by WESLEY BATES for property located at 553 E.
MCCLINTON ST. The property is zoned NC, NEIGHBORHOOD
CONSERVATION and contains approximately 0.20 acres. The request is to
rezone the property to RI-U, RESIDENTIAL INTERMEDIATE -URBAN
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends forwarding RZN-2025-0020 to City Council with a recommendation of
approval.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"1 move to forward RZN-2025-0020 to City Council with a recommendation of approval."
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located in south Fayetteville approximately 400 feet east of the South
Wood Avenue and East McClinton Street intersection. The property contains 0.20 acres and is
developed with a single-family dwelling that Washington County records indicate was constructed
in 1961. The property is zoned NC, Neighborhood Conservation, which it received in 2008. The
property is not located in an overlay district. Surrounding land uses and zoning are depicted in

Public Comment: Staff has not received any public comment on this item to date.
INFRASTRUCTURE AND ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Streets: The subject area has a road frontage along East McClinton Street. East McClinton
Street is a partially improved Residential Link Street with asphalt paving and open
ditches. Any street improvements required in these areas would be determined at
Planning Commission
June 9, 2025
RZN-2025-0020 (SIEMEK & BATES)
Paqe 1 of 13
the time of the development proposal. Any additional improvements or
requirements for drainage will be determined at time of development.
Water: Public water is available to the subject area. Existing 6-inch water main is present
along East McClinton Street.
Sewer: Sanitary Sewer is available to the subject area. Existing 8-inch sewer main is
present along East McClinton Street.
Drainage: Any improvements or requirements for drainage will be determined at the time of
development submittal. No portion of the subject property lies within the
Hillside/Hilltop Overlay District.
A portion of the property lies withing a FEMA Floodplain, but there is not a
protected stream present. A floodplain development review will be required at the
time of permit or plan submittal. This will restrict the type of development and
impact in flood zones; and may require additional documentation such as flood
studies or elevation certificates depending on the type of development. If a
development impacts a floodplain, those impacts may require review and approval
from FEMA.
Hydric soils are present which are known indicators of wetlands. However, for an
area to be classified as wetlands, it may also need other characteristics such as
hydrophytes (plants that grow in water), and shallow water during parts of the year.
Hydric soils can be found across many areas of Fayetteville, including valleys,
floodplains, and open prairies. It's important to identify these natural resources
during development, so when these soils are identified on a property, further
environmental studies will be required at the time of development. Before permits
are issued for the property, a statement/report from an environmental professional
must be provided summarizing the existence of wetlands on the property. If this
statement/report indicates that wetlands may be present on site, a USACE
Determination of Jurisdictional Wetlands will be required at the time of
development submittal.
Fire: Station 3, located at 1050 S. Happy Hollow Rd., protects this site. The property is
located approximately 1.5 miles from the fire station with an anticipated drive time
of approximately 4 minutes using existing streets. The anticipated response time
would be approximately 6.2 minutes. Fire Department response time is calculated
based on the drive time plus 1 minute for dispatch and 1.2 minutes for turn -out
time. Within the City Limits, the Fayetteville Fire Department has a response time
goal of 6 minutes for an engine and 8 minutes for a ladder truck.
Police: The Police Department did not comment on this request.
Tree Preservation:
The current zoning district, NC, Neighborhood Conservation, requires 20%
minimum canopy preservation. The proposed zoning district, RI-U, Residential
Intermediate -Urban, requires 15% minimum canopy preservation.

CITY PLAN 2040 FUTURE LAND USE PLAN: City Plan 2040 Future Land Use Plan designates
the property within the proposed rezone as Residential Neighborhood area. The property is
also located within the Walker Park Neighborhood Master Plan area.
Residential Neighborhood areas are primarily residential in nature and support a wide variety
of housing types of appropriate scale and context. Residential Neighborhood encourages highly
connected, compact blocks with gridded street patterns and reduced building setbacks. It also
encourages traditional neighborhood development that incorporates low -intensity non-residential
uses intended to serve the surrounding neighborhoods. This designation recognizes the existing
conventional subdivision developments that may have large blocks with conventional setbacks
and development patterns that respond to features of the natural environment.
The Walker Park Neighborhood Master Plan was the city's first neighborhood plan which was
completed in 2008 after City Plan 2025 was adopted. Four guiding principles were identified in
the plan which include maintaining a balance of uses and housing, emphasizing connectivity and
walkability, creating a core of the neighborhood at Jefferson Square, and preserving accessible
greenspace throughout the neighborhood.
CITY PLAN 2040 INFILL MATRIX: City Plan 2040's Infill Matrix indicates a score of 7 for this site
with a weighted score of 6.5. The following elements of the matrix contribute to the score:
• Adequate Fire Response (Station 3, 1050 S. Happy Hollow Rd.)
• Near Sewer Main (eight -inch main along East McClinton Street)
• Near Water Main (six-inch along East McClinton Street)
• Near City Park (Willow Bend Park)
• Near Paved Trail (Waxflower Trail)
• Near ORT Bust Stop (Morningside & Fairlane)
• Within Master Plan Area (Walker Park Neighborhood)
FINDINGS OF THE STAFF
A determination of the degree to which the proposed zoning is consistent with land use
planning objectives, principles, and policies and with land use and zoning plans.
Finding: Land Use Compatibility: Staff finds the proposed zoning to be compatible
with current land use and zoning patterns. While the surrounding
neighborhood primarily consists of detached single-family dwellings and
townhomes, there are attached dwellings and nonresidential uses in close
proximity to this site. The detached single-family dwellings are zoned NC,
Neighborhood Conservation; the attached townhomes to the south are
zoned DG, Downtown General. Both NC and RI-U allow for the by -right
development of detached single-family dwellings and accessory dwelling
units. Additionally, RI-U allows for the by -right development of additional
dwelling types (two-, three-, and four -family dwelling units), and without a
limitation to density. RI-U zoning would also allow for the creation of smaller
lots when compared to NC.
Land Use Plan Analysis: Staff finds the applicant's request to be consistent
with the City's land use plans. The subject property is designated as
Residential Neighborhood area in the City Plan 2040 Future Land Use Map.
Staff finds that a rezoning from NC to RI-U could support that designation
Planning Commission
June 9, 2025
RZN-2025-0020 (SIEMEK & BATES)
Paqe 3 of 13
since a rezoning to RI-U would allow for a wider variety of housing types.
Staff also finds the requested rezoning to be aligned with Goals 1, 4, and 6
of City Plan 2040 since it would encourage residential infill in an area that
has a moderate infill score of 7 and is in close proximity to a park, paved
trail, and a bus route. Staff also finds the proposed rezoning to be generally
aligned with the Walker Park Neighborhood Plan since it would retain a
balance of housing options and enable residents to live in the same
neighborhood as their housing needs change.
2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the
rezoning is proposed.
Finding: Staff finds that the proposed rezoning from NC to RI-U is justified since it
would allow for incremental residential infill. Rezoning to RI-U would be in
keeping with the area's character as well as adhering to the City's future land
use plan as it introduces more residential dwelling options.
3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase
traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: A rezoning from NC to RI-U has the potential to increase traffic at this
location when considering that RI-U would allow for more dense
development than the existing zoning districts which have stated density
limitations. The lots under consideration have direct access to public streets
and any necessary street improvements and potential traffic impacts would
be determined at the time of development.
4. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would alter the population density and
thereby undesirably increase the load on public services including schools, water, and
sewer facilities.
Finding: The proposed rezoning has the potential to alter the population density since
it would allow for increased residential development. However, the property
is in close proximity to public streets and existing water and sewer mains.
Any necessary upgrades or improvements to existing infrastructure would
be determined at the time of development. Fayetteville Public Schools did
not comment on this request.
5. If there are reasons why the proposed zoning should not be approved in view of
considerations under b (1) through (4) above, a determination as to whether the proposed
zoning is justified and/or necessitated by peculiar circumstances such as:
a. It would be impractical to use the land for any of the uses permitted under
its existing zoning classifications;
b. There are extenuating circumstances which justify the rezoning even
though there are reasons under b (1) through (4) above why the proposed
zoning is not desirable.

Dear Planning Commission and City Council Members,
I am writing on behalf of my client to request a rezoning of the property located at 553 McClinton
Street, from Neighborhood Conservation (NC) to Residential Intermediate -Urban (RI-U) zoning.
My client is currently building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) on the property, which is
permitted under the existing zoning. This rezoning request would not result in any additional
density, as the ADU is already approved and under construction. The purpose of the request is
to allow the property to be divided into a tandem lot, enabling my client to obtain two separate
30-year mortgages —one for each structure.
Rezoning to RI-U would provide added flexibility and long-term financial stability while
preserving the existing residential character of the property. The proposed change aligns with
the city's goals for sustainable infill and increased housing options without impacting
neighborhood scale or intensity.
Thank you for your consideration of this request. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need
any additional information.
Sincerely,
Wes Bates
Planning Commission
