PUMP STATION RD/CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, 602): Submitted by CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE for propefi located between E. 19TH ST & E. PUMP STATION RD. in WARD 1. The property is zoned l-1, HEAVY COMMERCIAL AND LIGHT INDUSTRIAL, AND RPZD, PLANNED ZONING DISTRICT and contains approximately 73.7 acres. The request is to modify the alignment of a proposed connection in the Fayetteville Master Street Plan. RECOMMENDATION: City Planning staff, the Fayetteville Planning Commission, and the Transportation Committee recommend approval of a request to amend the alignment of a 2040 master street plan connection between E. 19th Street and E. Pump Station Road as shown in the attached Exhibits'A' and 'B.' BACKGROUND: The subject property includes a future street identified in the Master Street Plan associated with City Plan 2040. This connection is in south Fayetteville between the terminus of E '19th Street and where E. Pump Station Road intersects S. City Lake Road. The connection impacts properties that total approximately 73.7 acres and are a mix of industrialzoning and propefi that was recently rezoned to a planned zoning district in February 2025 (PZD-2024-0008). Overall, the properties the connection crosses are minimally developed, with a mixture of rural residential, agricultural, and industrial uses. The PZD on the westernmost side of the property would permit a mix of agricultural, outdoor recreation, natural areas, and event spaces on the propefi. Reguesf: City staff is requesting an amendment to the 2040 Master Street Plan to realign an approximately lz mile section of a proposed Neighborhood Link Street as shown in the attached Exhibit. Public Comment: Staff has received public comment regarding this request with general concerns about how the proposalwould affect existing property including barns, ponds, driveways, and existing canopy. Additionally, city staff met members of the public to discuss the details of the proposal and informed the property owners that the connection is not a funded or designed city project, and unless private development were to occur on the property the street's construction is likely a long{erm matter. One family indicated a request to see the overall connection removed, but felt that the new alignment was an improvement to the existing condition. Further, the original applicant has indicated an intention to request to further downgrade the connection to a Residential Link Street. DISGUSSION: At the February 9,2026 Planning Commission meeting, Commissioners unanimously supported the Mailing address: 113 W. Mountain Street Fayettevi!!e, AR 7270L www.fayettevi I le-a r. gov connection's realignment. Though they initially had questions about how the proposed route may interact with floodplain and the proposed development on E. 19th Street, Commissioners ultimately found that the proposed realignment was more practicable. Two members of the public spoke at the meeting, and their comments are outlined above. The item was subsequently heard at the February 24,2026 Transportation Committee meeting, where members voted unanimously to forward this item with a recommendation of approval (Councilmember Stafford made the motion, with Councilmember Minister Jones seconding). Allfour members were present at the meeting. BUDGET/STAFF IMPAGT N/A ATTACHIIIIENTS: 3. Staff Review Form, 4. Exhibit A, 5. Exhibit B, 6. Planning Commission Staff Report Mailing address: 113 W.
