Jonathan Curth, Development Services Director
Britin Bostick, Long Range Planning/Special Projects Manager
FROM: Kylee Cole, Long Range & Preservation Planner
SUBJECT: ADM-2026-0022: Establishment of the Fayetteville Black Historic District
encompassing various properties along N. Washington Ave., N. Willow Ave., E.
Center St., E. Mountain St., S. Washington Ave., and E. Rock St. containing
approximately 20.8 acres.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Historic District Commission, Black Heritage Preservation Commission, Planning Commission, State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), and Long Range Planning staff recommend approval of an ordinance to
create the Fayetteville Black Historic District as shown in ‘Exhibit C’.
BACKGROUND:
On December 31, 2025, the City Clerk-Treasurer’s Office verified a resident-submitted petition to propose a
local historic district referred to as “Spout Spring Historic District”. The Clerk-Treasurer’s office verified seventy-
three (73) signatures out of the total of one-hundred forty-three (143) property owners within the proposed
boundary. Their final calculation shows that 51% of property owners within the proposed district signed the
petition. The required percentage of signatures according to the Arkansas Historic Districts Act is 51%.
Following the validation of signatures, staff began intensive research into the properties within the petition
boundary. Results from the recently-completed Phase 1 Citywide Survey of Historic Properties and additional
property research were used to develop this report. Since the petition was submitted with the intent of creating
a local historic district associated with historically Black-owned properties, information about past owners was
required beyond what was captured by the Phase 1 survey. Through a detailed review of deeds and property
records available from the Washington County Assessor’s Office, a chain of ownership was identified for each
property (Exhibit D). Owner names were cross-referenced with census records, archived city directories,
newspaper articles, birth and death certificates, and obituaries to confirm the identity of the owner. From this
research a list of historically Black-owned properties was generated in support of the local historic district
theme as submitted. Some properties did not have a documented history of Black ownership but had historic-
age buildings associated with the 20th century working-class neighborhood development in South Fayetteville.
These are discussed in a separate report and recommendation for the South Fayetteville Local Historic District.
April 9, 2026 Historic District Commission Meeting - Staff presented the initial report and findings on the
proposed district to the Historic District Commission (HDC) at their April 9, 2026 regular meeting. Staff’s
recommendations for splitting the proposed historic district into two separate districts based on ownership
history and recommendations from the Phase 1 Citywide Survey of Historic Properties were discussed in

detail. The HDC requested that staff return to the May meeting with separate reports detailing the
recommendations.
May 14, 2026 Historic District Commission Meeting - Staff presented the revised report as requested by the
HDC. The HDC unanimously voted to forward this report to the Planning Commission for review.
May 21, 2026 Black Heritage Preservation Commission Meeting – The Black Heritage Preservation
Commission unanimously issued a statement of support for the creation of the district. See attached letter from
Chair Lois Bryant.
June 8, 2026 Planning Commission Meeting – Staff presented the report and recommendations to the
Planning Commission. At the meeting, four individuals participated in public comment, all in favor of the
recommendation to create the district. The Planning Commission issued a unanimous statement of support
(attached).
July 9, 2026 Historic District Commission Meeting – The HDC held a public hearing and one member of the
public, a resident of the proposed district, commented in favor. The commission forwarded the item to City
Council 5-0.
DISCUSSION:
The recommended district is highly significant for its association with Black property occupancy and ownership
as reflected in the historic record as early as 1910 to 1976 and beyond.
Under the Arkansas Historic Districts Act, property owners have the opportunity to petition a city for a local
historic district, also called a local ordinance district, with protections for properties within the district. After
more than two years of discussion, a majority of property owners within the proposed district have signed on to
such a petition, which has been reviewed by the Fayetteville Planning Commission, Arkansas State Historic
Preservation Office, and Fayetteville Historic District Commission in accordance with the process and timeline
required. Additionally, the City's Black Heritage Preservation Commission has reviewed the petition and
associated report. Please see the attached staff memo for a detailed and illustrated explanation of the
proposed request. Should the Council choose to establish the proposed district, requests within the district for
alterations to properties, new construction, and demolitions that meet the threshold for a public hearing will be
considered by the Historic District Commission.

SUBJECT: ADM-2026-0022: An ordinance to establish the Fayetteville Black
Historic District.
Recommendation:
The Historic District Commission, Planning Commission, State Historic Preservation Office
(SHPO), and long range planning staff recommend approval of an ordinance to create the
Fayetteville Black Historic District as shown in ‘Exhibit A’.
Background:
On December 31, 2025, the City Clerk-Treasurer’s Office verified a resident-submitted petition
to propose a local historic district referred to as “Spout Spring Historic District”1. The Clerk-
Treasurer’s office verified seventy-three (73) signatures out of the total of one-hundred forty-
three (143) property owners within the proposed boundary. Their final calculation shows that
51% of property owners within the proposed district signed the petition. The required
percentage of signatures according to the Arkansas Historic Districts Act is 51%.
Following the validation of signatures, staff began intensive research into the properties
included within the boundary as submitted with the petition. Results from the Phase 1 Citywide
Survey of Historic Properties and additional property research were used to develop this report.
Since the petition was submitted with the intent of creating a local historic district associated
with historically Black-owned properties, information about past owners was required beyond
what was captured by the Phase 1 survey. Through a detailed review of deeds and property
records available from the Washington County Assessor’s Office, a chain of ownership was

Some properties did not have a documented history of Black ownership but had historic-age
buildings associated with the 20th century working class neighborhood development in South
Fayetteville, and these are discussed in a separate staff report and recommendation for the
1 Due to the length of time spent on petition signature gathering, additional research and community meetings have made clear t hat
“Spout Spring” is not a placename that the neighborhood and long-time residents support. Alternative names should be pursued and
are discussed within this report. Until a formal name is agreed upon by the neighborhood, the neighborhood will be referred to
broadly as the “Fayetteville Black Local Historic District.”

South Fayetteville Local Historic District.
April 9, 2026 Historic District Commission Meeting - Staff presented the initial report and
findings on the proposed district to the Historic District Commission (HDC) at their April 9, 2026
regular meeting. Staff’s recommendations for splitting the proposed historic district into two
separate districts based on ownership history and recommendations from the Phase 1 Citywide
Survey of Historic Properties were discussed in detail. The HDC requested that staff return to
the May meeting with separate reports detailing the recommendations.
May 14, 2026 Historic District Commission Meeting - Staff presented the revised report as
requested by the commission. The HDC unanimously voted to forward this report to the
Planning Commission for review.
May 21, 2026 Black Heritage Preservation Commission – The commission unanimously
issued a statement of support for the creation of the district. See letter from Chair Bryant

June 8, 2026 Planning Commission Meeting – Staff presented the proposal and
recommendations to the commission. At the meeting, four individuals participated in public
comment, all in favor of the recommendation to create the district. The planning commission
issued a unanimous statement of support, attached.
July 9, 2026 Historic District Commission Meeting – The HDC held a public hearing and one
member of the public, a resident of the proposed district, commented in favor. The commission
forwarded the item to City Council 5-0.
Under the Arkansas Historic Districts Act, property owners have the opportunity to petition a city
for a local historic district, also called a local ordinance district, with protections for properties
within the district. After more than two years of discussion, a majority of property owners within
the proposed district have signed on to such a petition, which has been reviewed by the
Fayetteville Planning Commission, Arkansas State Historic Preservation Office, and Fayetteville
Historic District Commission in accordance with the process and timeline required.
Alignment with Adopted Plans:
The creation of local historic districts is supported by four elements of the City’s Heritage &
Historic Preservation Plan adopted in July 2023:
Heritage and Historic Preservation Master Plan Relevant Goals and Action Items
1.9 Plan Review Include historic preservation staff in review of proposed major projects
and zoning changes to determine impacts to historic resources.
1.10 Demolition
Ordinance
Pass an ordinance to allow for the review of proposed demolitions for
resources forty-five years or older. Staff to evaluate each property for
significance. Work with property owner to discourage demolition.
Reviews should be taken up by HDC as needed.
3.7 Local Historic
District
Designation
Poll NRHP historic district property owners to gauge interest in
becoming a local historic district. Based on poll results, prioritize
facilitation of local historic district designation.
4.9 Community
Engagement:
Transparency
Publish information about historic preservation reviews and demolitions
of historic properties to increase transparency.
Boundary as Submitted:
The submitted boundary encompasses two areas located southeast of downtown (Figure 1). The
northern section is roughly bound by East Spring Street, North Walnut Avenue, East Huntsville
Docusign Envelope ID: E260182B-BCAF-8DEF-8374-60A383E91465
Road, and North Washington Avenue. The southern section is roughly bound by South Willow
Avenue, East 7th Street, South College Avenue, and East South Street/East Huntsville Road.
Recommended Boundary:
Since the petition was submitted with the stated intent of creating a local historic district based
on Black ownership, the boundary below (Figure 2) is recommended to reflect properties that
were historically Black-owned. Importantly, the recommendation below does not reflect in
anyway on the historic owners or their importance to the community. This boundary is solely
intended to capture the highest proportion of extant historically Black owned properties and
align with the intent of a local historic district as established by the Arkansas Historic Districts
Act.

Historic District Boundary
as submitted by
petitioners shown in red.
Docusign Envelope ID: E260182B-BCAF-8DEF-8374-60A383E91465
Some properties within the submitted boundary are not recommended for inclusion in the
Fayetteville Black Historic District as highlighted in Figure 2 and discussed below:
1. This area does not have a documented history of Black ownership. Although at least one
property is currently in Black ownership, to make a historic association with the Black
community for the purposes of a local historic district, ownership would need to date to
at least 1976 (50 years ago at time of writing). It is therefore recommended for inclusion
in the South Fayetteville Historic District associated with 20th century working class
history in Fayetteville.
2. This area did not have historic Black ownership as evidenced in deed records and was
not historically improved. The properties are currently vacant.
3. This area represents an area more closely associated with 20th century working class
Fayetteville’s history and represents a racially diverse neighborhood from development

to 1976. Though Black ownership at various times from around 1923 to 1976 and
beyond is evident in the historic record, 21 out of 47 or 44.6% of properties were at one
time Black-owned. This is significantly less than the 73 out of 85 properties, or 85.8%, of
properties within the recommended Black Historic District area to the north. Further, 9 of
the historically Black-owned properties within this area are vacant or contain new
construction that do not convey the association with historic owners. The Jefferson
School is located within this area and represents the story of the integration of
Fayetteville’s public schools. As noted below, the Jefferson School was constructed as a
white-only elementary and was integrated in 1965.
History:
Since the petition was submitted with the intent of creating a local historic district in the context
of Black historic occupation, much of this section of the report will speak to that history and use
information from the Historic Black Community of Southeast Fayetteville Historic Context
Statement.2
The history of Fayetteville’s Black community reaches back to the settlement of Washington
County when white migrants from the upper South brought Black enslaved persons with them in
the 1830s. The number of enslaved people in Washington county increased from around 250 to
1,500 in 1860, with around 200 residing within Fayetteville.
Enslaved people built early Fayetteville, as they were heavily involved in the construction of
homes and community buildings and contributed to the young town’s economic success with
their domestic and farm labor. Following emancipation, the Black population in Washington
County dropped to just 674 people.3 As Fayetteville reconstructed following Civil War
occupation, many Black Fayettevillians found work as construction or mill workers, and soon a
thriving Black community and economy was present in town. Although documenting early post-
emancipation settlement is difficult due to the lack of clear records, by 1880 concentrations of
Black families begin appearing in federal census records along what is now South Willow Street
and East Mountain Street.4 The establishment of the Henderson School and its replacement
building provided an institutional anchor for the Black community along Olive Street. There was,
however, not one centralized Black community until much later.
In the early 20th century, Black settlement in Fayetteville was less concentrated than it would
become in the subsequent decades. Some Black residents continued to live in predominantly
white residential areas, near their workplace. The majority, however, lived east and southeast of
downtown. By the 1930s, many of the Black families who resided near the Henderson school
had moved elsewhere. As Black families vacated or sold their homes in the area around the
Henderson school, they were quickly replaced with white residences in what is now the
Washington-Willow NRHP.
Black residential patterns became increasingly clear through the early 20th century as two areas
emerged south of the Henderson School. The first, represented by the northern portion of the
petition boundary was roughly bound by Spring Street to the north, the courthouse to the west,
Huntsville Road to the south, and Mount Sequoyah to the east. The second, between Huntsville
Road and 4th Street, was more sparsely populated and is not represented in this petition
boundary.5 The area would become more developed and densely occupied by Black and white

from our community meetings.

families in the mid-20th century as settlement generally moved south toward 7th Street. This
trend was furthered when the Henderson School was replaced by the Lincoln School at the
corner of East Center and South Willow in 1936.6
When the Lincoln School was constructed, Black students could remain in Fayetteville for their
education through the 9th grade but still had to go elsewhere to finish high school. This coupled
with the lack of career options meant that many Black students who left Fayetteville did not
return to the community, a trend that lasted until the late 1960s. In 1954, seven Black students
integrated Fayetteville High School. All were residents of the community east of downtown.
Junior high schools followed, but it took eleven years before the elementary schools were
desegregated in 1965. Children in the neighborhood were split between the formerly all-white
Washington School and the Jefferson School.7
In addition to school segregation throughout the mid-twentieth century, city plans upheld the
segregation of Fayetteville. The 1945 “A Master City Plan and Public Works Program for
Fayetteville, Arkansas”, sponsored jointly by the Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce and
Fayetteville City Council, called for the construction of U.S. Highway 71 through the
neighborhood, following Willow Ave. and Spring Branch to the intersection of Maple and
Mission. Part of the justification for the route was that “it would afford an opportunity to build
roadside parks and parking area in what is now sub-standard housing districts.”, and that “the
highway would not pass by important public buildings such as schools, hospitals, etc.” The
historic St. James Methodist and Missionary Baptist churches as well as the Lincoln School
were all on the proposed highway route. The plan also suggested that a Federal housing project
be developed for the displaced Black residents, citing discriminatory justification that “when two
races are mixed in a neighborhood all property loses value.” Though many of these proposals
were never carried out, the proposal for the destruction of the Black community provides a clear
picture of the white power structure’s view of the neighborhood. There was also an
acknowledgement of the importance of Black labor within this plan, as new housing was
intended to be as close to downtown businesses and industries as possible. This plan also
revealed the city’s longstanding lack of investment in infrastructure within the community, with
vague statements about the unsuitable residential area and admissions that the streets
remained unpaved in 1945.8
While many of the projects proposed in the 1945 plan did not come to fruition, the neighborhood
was subjected to many of the proposals of the 1968 “Program for Community Renewal” written
by consulting planner James Vizzier. Like many urban renewal plans of the mid-20th century, the
plan was paid for in part by a grant from the federal Urban Renewal Administration under the
Housing Act of 1954. The plan noted that Fayetteville’s “general plan should be updated and
expanded to include plans for community renewal.”, and further explained that, “…about 65% of
the housing supply [in the city] might be susceptible to blight…Most of these improvements are
in older neighborhoods where the units that must be cleared are deficient or dilapidated rather
than sound.” Vizzier counted 1,327 families to be displaced by public improvements for
University expansion, street construction, hospitals or schools and playgrounds, while at the
same time noting an imbalance between the cost of housing and family income. He laid out an
ambitious and costly ($47,615,400 in 1968 dollars) plan for urban renewal in Fayetteville, most
of which was never accomplished.
The report also provided insight into demographics and the built environment of southeast
Fayetteville’s Black community. The report stated that there were approximately 600 non-white

Docusign Envelope ID: E260182B-BCAF-8DEF-8374-60A383E91465
residents of Fayetteville, about 100 of which were University of Arkansas students and 500 who
were permanent residents. According to the report, in 1968, Black families comprised
approximately 2.3% of Fayetteville’s population and “80% live in substandard houses in one
narrowly confined neighborhood.” Though never identified by a name and described as “a small
area east of the Fayetteville square,” the document identified southeast Fayetteville as an area
of blight, a slum area, and one of Fayetteville’s “worst neighborhoods.” Two-thirds of Black
families owned their own home, though the report writers indicated that low wages prevented
property owners from improving their property. Residents living along Willow Avenue were
interviewed as part of a “Community Attitudes Survey,” in which: “Most complaints were aimed
at sanitary services, streets and drainage problems.” The report also documented the increased
movement of Black families into “the Valley”: “Since 1960, however, Negro families have begun
to move south of Huntsville Road in the neighborhood of Jefferson school.” The closure of the
Lincoln School and desegregation of the Jefferson School was likely a factor in the Black
settlement in the area.
Changes to the Built Environment of Southeast Fayetteville
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, at least ten vacant and “substandard” houses in southeast
Fayetteville were demolished, as documented by both Peter Kunkel and the City Code
Compliance department. It appears that a handful of houses were also “brought up to standard,”
during this period, though it is unclear whether this was done at the owner’s expense or through
community and/or local government support. Present-day residents recalled that there were
several instances in which the community rallied to assist residents whose homes were at risk
of condemnation, under the leadership of Jessie Carr Bryant. While a full investigation of
demolitions in the community has not been undertaken, it is clear from historic photographs,
aerial images, and maps that many residences were demolished in the late 20th century,
particularly along E. Mountain Street and E. Rock Street.9 The Lincoln School was demolished
shortly after its closure in 1965, and a public housing complex known as Willow Heights was
constructed in its place by the early 1970s.
Following the desegregation of Fayetteville elementary schools and demolition of the Lincoln
School in 1965, Black children in the community were split between two formerly all-white
schools. Children who lived north of Center Street attended Washington Elementary, and
children who lived south of Center Street attended Jefferson Elementary.10
Following the Civil Rights Movement, new opportunities emerged for Fayetteville’s Black
residents, including new freedoms to settle in other places of the city. Black families moved
outside the historic Black community, but many others elected to stay in the community where
they had been raised, and where generations of their families had lived. Today, many of the
properties in the community are still owned by descendants of Fayetteville’s historic Black
community.
Neighborhood Architecture
Much of the proposed district is dominated by vernacular forms, including some of the oldest
extant homes in Fayetteville. This aligns with the neighborhood’s development history, which
prioritized function over high style and used local materials. The earliest known homes were
single pen or wood frame houses, which were typically square, but overhanging shed roofs and
shed roof rear extensions were common. There are several examples of single pen houses,
including the house at 216 E. Center Street. Another vernacular form, the double pen, is present
in the district with an example at 160 E. Meadow Street. Bent houses are also present, with

Docusign Envelope ID: E260182B-BCAF-8DEF-8374-60A383E91465
examples at 212 E. Center Street and 115 N. Washington Avenue. Gable front houses were a
dominant folk form during the late 19th and early 20th centuries and several examples are
present, including homes at 234 S. Willow Avenue and 256 E. Mountain Street.
A few native stone buildings are present in the neighborhood, with most of them concentrated in
the southern section. An example in the northern portion includes the highly significant Webb’s
Café and boarding house at 105 N. Willow Avenue which was listed in the Green Book.
Other buildings associated with the historic Black community include educational and religious
buildings. This includes the Henderson School, which is not within the proposed boundary and
has since been modified into a single-family residence, and the St. James United Methodist
Church constructed in 1884.
Please refer to the Historic Black Community of Southeast Fayetteville Historic Context
Statement and property inventory below for additional detail on the architectural fabric of the
neighborhood.11
Discussion:
The recommended district is highly significant for its association with Black property occupancy
from emancipation, and ownership as reflected in the historic record as early as 1910 to 1976
and beyond (Criterion A).12
Historic Ownership:
Through careful review of deeds available through the Washington County Assessor’s Office
and digital archives, two clusters of properties associated with historic Black ownership became
clear (Figure 3). The first is in the northern portion of the proposed boundary, where seventy-
three (73) extant homes, demolished homes, and historically vacant properties owned and
occupied by Black residents are located. In the southern portion of the proposed district, twenty-
one (21) additional historically Black owned properties are present, in the area surrounding the
Combs Street Church of Christ and East Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. As discussed above,
this southern area represents an area closely associated with 20th century working class
Fayetteville’s history and represents a racially diverse neighborhood from development to 1976.
Though Black ownership at various times from around 1923 to 1976 and beyond is evident in
the historic record, 21 out of 47 or 44.6% of properties were at one time Black-owned. This is
significantly less than the 73 out of 85 properties, or 85.8%, of properties within the
recommended Fayetteville Black Historic District area to the north. Further, 9 of the historically
Black-owned properties within this area are vacant or contain new construction that do not

12 It is important to note that Black individuals ownership may not be fully represented in the historic record through traditional
means like mortgages and deeds. Individuals may have entered informal ownership contracts earlier than revealed by deed recor ds.
Reliance on typical historic documentary evidence has its limitations but is the most reliable source for understanding ownership
patterns.

Of importance, there are likely other significant
resources associated with Fayetteville’s Black
Heritage elsewhere in the city, which may be
documented in future survey efforts or with
future local historic district petitions. For
example, Oaks Cemetery, the primary burial
ground for Black residents for decades, is
outside of the proposed boundary. There are
also numerous local businesses and
institutions associated with Black history in
Fayetteville, and the current boundary does not
reflect the full breadth of the Black community’s
contributions to the city’s history.13 A local
historic district could be amended to add other
properties in the future.
The creation of a local historic district
associated with southeast Fayetteville’s
Historic Black Community aligns with
recommendations from the Phase 1 Survey,
which noted “many of the community’s historic
resources have been lost to demolition or new
infill, and development pressure, deterioration,
and lack of funding and resources for
preservation and maintenance threaten the
remaining resources.” A local historic district
could help protect the remaining buildings
associated with Fayetteville’s Black history.14
Areas that were not historically associated with
Black ownership are not included in the
recommended boundary. Many of these
properties are recommended for inclusion in
the South Fayetteville Local Historic District,
which is associated with a broader history of
the 20th century working class in Fayetteville,
and is submitted for consideration separately.
Property Regulations:
The intended purpose of a local historic district as permitted through the Arkansas Historic
Districts Act is the protection of existing historic properties through regulation and review by staff
and the Historic District Commission. Since there is a general distinction between the level of
integrity of materials between the northern and southern areas, it may be appropriate to regulate
them with different sets of design guidelines that provide greater flexibility for properties that
have undergone alterations to materials, but still retain form, located primarily in the northern
area recommended for consideration as a Fayetteville Black Historic District.
This area contains primarily vernacular architectural forms, which have undergone periodic
alteration over time. Many homes in the area were originally small wood frame cottages with
13 Phase 1 Fayetteville Citywide Historic Resources Survey, 14.
14 Phase 1 Survey, 15.

adjacent to the submitted boundary.

rear additions. As families grew or finances improved, homes would be improved and expanded
upon. Though some of these changes happened during the historic period (pre-1976), many
occurred after this time, impacting the integrity of the buildings when considered through a
traditional historic preservation lens. These normal changes during the lifecycle of a home
should be considered in context of the people who lived there, who had deep roots in the
neighborhood, strong ties to their own heritage, and perhaps lacked the financial resources or
opportunity to move elsewhere but still took great pride in maintaining and improving their
homes.
It is important to consider that the overall form, design, and scale/massing of these homes are
the most important character defining features. Buildings may have lost integrity of materials but
are still largely able to convey their association with the historic Black community through the
vernacular styles and forms present. Comparatively, the southern area subject to the petition
and proposal holds a higher degree of integrity of design and materials, particularly with some of
the Ozark Giraffe and Craftsman homes. Since there is a general distinction between the level
of integrity of materials between the two areas, it may be appropriate to regulate them with
different sets of design guidelines that provide greater flexibility for properties that have
undergone alterations to materials but still retain a vernacular form and modest scale.
Public Comment:
Staff held two community meetings at the Yvonne Richardson Community Center on March 18th
and April 12th. At the meetings, attendees (12 and 15 individuals, respectively) asked clarifying
questions and expressed a general desire to tell the full story of the neighborhood including
where there were once Black-owned homes that are no longer extant. We offered a dot voting
exercise where attendees were asked whether they preferred property regulations only (5), a
formal acknowledgement of history only (10), or both (12). No statements in opposition to the
creation of the district or inclusion of a property have been received by staff as of writing.
At the June 8, 2026 Planning Commission Meeting, which was functionally the first public
hearing on this item, four individuals participated in public comment, all in favor of the
recommendation to create the district.
At the July 9, 2026 Historic District Commission Meeting, one member of the public spoke in
favor of creating the district.

RE: Fayetteville Black Historic District
Dear Ms. Myres & Historic District Commissioners,
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Fayetteville Black Historic District. In
accordance with the Arkansas Historic Districts Act, this letter serves as the Planning Commission’s
official reply.
The Planning Commission is pleased to give its full support to this proposal.
The creation of a historic district as an important step toward honoring, protecting, and preserving the
history and character of this neighborhood which was built and occupied historically by primarily Black
individuals and families.
The Commission wishes to offer our support now and in the future for development-related requests that
may come before our body. We also want to express our support for waiving fees for variance
applications associated with historic properties. We hope that this will incentivize the restoration and
adaptive reuse of historic buildings and appropriate infill in Fayetteville’s historic neighborhoods.
Respectfully,
Nick Werner
Chair, Planning Commission

Chair Christine Myres & Fayetteville Historic District Commission
City of Fayetteville, Arkansas
RE: Fayetteville Black Historic District
Dear Ms. Myres & Historic District Commissioners,
While the Black Heritage Preservation Commission was not formally invited to comment on this matter as
part of the current process outlined in the Arkansas Historic District Act, we believe it is important to
speak given the Commission’s charge to recognize, acknowledge, protect, and preserve Fayetteville’s
Black history and cultural resources.
The Commission wants to acknowledge the role of past planning efforts that caused harm to
Fayetteville’s historic Black community. The 1945 and 1968 plans treated established Black
neighborhoods as expendable and reflected discriminatory attitudes and policies that failed to recognize
the humanity, contributions, and cultural significance of Fayetteville’s Black residents and the
communities they built. Further, the long-term impacts of disinvestment, infrastructure neglect,
displacement pressures, and generational loss have shaped the community over time and continue to
impact the residents today.
We strongly support the creation of a historic district as an important step toward preserving this
community’s history, protecting its remaining historic resources, and ensuring that the stories of its
residents are not forgotten. The boundary as proposed is a starting point from which a larger Black
historic district can grow. We are impressed by the collaboration of the property owners and their
dedication to preserving their neighborhood’s history and we hope that over time other s may choose to
join the district as well.
Respectfully,
Lois D. Bryant

Re: Proposed Historic District – SE Fayetteville Historic District
After a detailed review of the Arkansas Historic Districts Act, deed records, and petition signatures,
our office has verified that there are enough signatures to meet the required threshold of 51%. Our
team was able to verify seventy-three (73) signatures out of a total of one-hundred forty-three (143)
property owners within the proposed boundary. Our final calculation shows that 51% of property
owners within the proposed historic district signed the petition. Based upon the dates located on the
petition pages, the timeframe that these signatures were collected was 10/2024 – 12/2025.

District Deed Research
Note: Since the petition was submitted with the intent of forming a Black historic district, reasonable
efforts were made to determine the race of individual property owners. Where Census records, city
directories, obituaries, or other documentation confirmed, Black individuals are noted in purple. Only
properties within the proposed district boundary are included in this document. Importantly, additional
properties may have been Black occupied, but that information would not be captured by deeds and
would require additional research outside of the scope of this project. Future research could use Census
records to determine where Black renters were living within Fayetteville.
If information has been omitted or incorrectly identified, please reach out to
