C.2.3
BACKGROUND :
The applicant requests to rezone a parcel of land from A- 1 (agricultural) to R-2 (medium density)
in order to build an apartment complex. 228 apartment units would be constructed on 22.3 acres
plus an office, football field, basketball gymnasium, and associated lakes. There would be 19
twelve-plex units. The units would be similar to other apartments the applicant has build
elsewhere in Fayetteville. The property is owned by Jim Lindsey and was bought from Meriam
Calabria. The name of the apartment complex would be Razorback Estates. Signage would
include a monument sign on McConnel Avenue to the east of the site and a monument sign along
the bypass. Traffic would be carried on McConnel and on Hall Avenue (Garland Ave.). Sewer
is available north of the proposed site on McConnel Avenue north of the property and water is
available at Drake St. further north.
The proposed apartment complex would almost be surrounded by agricultural land uses. To the
north is the Washington County Fairgrounds. To the east is the University of Arkansas
Experimental Farm. The land west of the bypass is being utilized as pasture land and to the north
is the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company. There has been some concern from the University
that the apartment complex would not be compatible to the experimental fields. They believe
larger fences would have to be provided on their property and that access routes would have to be
changed. The site uas recently been cleared and smaller trees removed in preparation of the new
development.

Finding: The rezoning proposed is consistent with the land use planning objectives,
principles, and policies of the land use and zoning plans.
2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the
rezoning is proposed.
Finding: The zoning is justified at this time to meet the goals of General
Plan 2020 for infill development.

traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: The proposed zoning would create and appreciably increase traffic danger
and congestion.

4. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would alter the population density

sewer facilities.
Finding: The proposed zoning would alter the population density and would
undesirably increase the load on public services including schools, water,
and sewer facilities.
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.

RZ99-1: REZONING
LINDSEY, pp287
This item was submitted by Thomas Hopper of Crafton, Tull and Associates on behalf of
Lindsey Management Company for property located north of the Washington County
Fairgrounds and east of Highway 71 bypass. The property is zoned A- 1, Agricultural and
contains approximately 22.3 acres. The request is to rezone the property to R-2, Medium
Density Residential.
Staff recommended rezoning the property from A-1 to R-2 with the inclusion that the applicant
has been advised of the City of Fayetteville's future plans to develop Township Street on this
property's southern boundary and that the City of Fayetteville's sewer facilities may be subject to
a moratorium in the near future.
Mr. Jim Lindsey was present on behalf of the project.
Staff and Applicant Presentation
Vinson: The map that I have just passed out, I need to clarify that the Township
development on the southern border was not on the southern border of this property as stated
before. Township is not proposed to be on the southern border of this property as was stated.
The fairgrounds are between this property and the proposal for Township in the future according
to the 2020 Master Plan. That is what this map shows.
Odom: So, Township is not a consideration with this rezoning request.
Vinson: No, sir.
Odom: All right.
Lindsey: I would like to present this for your consideration. It is 22.3 acres adjacent to the
bypass. I has the agricultural park land on two sides. The bypass is on one side and
Southwestern Bell has a tract for their truck depot. What we would like to do is present this in a
way that we are talking about 228 units. What we are trying to do as an R-2 zone, there would
be 535 units allowed there. We're talking about 228 and we're also talking about having for
Arkansas Athletes Outreach, if that's what they want to do with this, a place where there would
be a room for an indoor basketball facility and an outdoor athletic facility. Whether or not that
has to have a conditional use, I'm not sure in an R-2. But some facilities that would end up
being for them. That is totally separate from our 228 units. We would like to get the whole
property zoned R-2, but I would just like to inform you that may come back to you at some point
in time. What our thought process is that if you go around Fayetteville and you look and you see
and you try to find R-2 property, it is rare. It's hard to find. This land is on the bypass. It is in
fact a very good transition zone. It is surrounded by University and it's very questionable
whether that land will ever be developed and it leaves it for what we think anyway is one of the
few potentially desirable R-2 tracts that does not impact any neighborhood or group of people in
-.
RZ 99-1
C.2.10
a way that would have a negative influence. That is our basic approach. That is what we are
trying to look for now and to make that an option. We're not building that much in Northwest
Arkansas. The market has tightened up in Fayetteville. There will be a need as the University
grows and we see this as a good location and good option for what we are intending to do and
look forward to doing it. The density will be below R-2. We don't even care if you designate
the density. We don't have a problem with that. We would just like to use that location as a
nice, moderately priced parks complex. It will not be tax credits. There will not be any tax
credits associated with it in any way. It will be a moderate priced apartment complex for the
people who service the community anywhere on the bypass or some students, I would assume.
But, probably more so for the community at large. That's where we're coming from and that is
what we would like to present to you.
Odom: Thank you, Mr. Lindsey.
Public Discussion
None.
Further Commission Discussion and Comments
MOTION
Mr. Estes made a motion to approve RZ99-1.
Mr. Odom seconded the motion.
Hoffman:
At this point is it proper to
extend the right
of way
or increase the right of way on
McConnell
to handle the additional traffic
to be generated
by this
project?
Little: We need to do that at the development stage. We will do that when it comes
through in large scale development.
Hoffman: I just wanted to go on the record as saying we will look at that when that comes
up then.
Roll Call
Upon roll call, the motion passed with a unanimous vote of 9-0-0.
