The property is zoned R- 1 , Low Density Residential, and contains approximately 4.98 acres. The request is to rezone the property to R-0, Residential Office. Mr. Neal Pendergraft was present on behalf of the project. Commission Discussion Pendergraft: I' m representing myself and the three other owners of the property. As you know, Dr. Smith and I own the property immediately to the east that is Paradise Valley. Prior to purchasing this property that is at issue now, I look back at the zoning regulations and it appeared to me that R-0 zoning with medium to high density housing which is what is across the street where I believe most of our objections are coming -- I also appear as one of the owners of the property next door. We have no objection to the property being R-O. I feel like the people that have the most at risk here would be the people that are actually on the north side of the street, Dr. Smith, Dr. Hudson, and the Lades. I stated in my application that none of those people have any objections. Dr. Hudson and Dr. Smith are here. They can speak for themselves as to whether or not they have any objections. I was a little puzzled by the trouble that this had when it went through the first time and I tried to explain in a letter what took place there when this came up and I believe it was 96- 13 . When we rezoned the paradise valley property, the people objecting then had concerns about not building cheap duplexes on the property that is now Paradise Valley and in the last part of the minutes, Swifty Reynolds, who was then on the Commission asked if I would enter into a Bill of Assurance that we wouldn't put any duplexes on this property. I have no interest in going into the residential market, I immediately agreed to that for the Paradise Valley property. I did have some confusion as to why now they are objecting to this request. All of the inquiries we have had about purchasing the property have been from individuals who want R-0 property. I don't think it is properly suited for R- 1 . As much as the people objecting may say that they live in an exclusive residential area, that quite simply is not the fact. If you look going east on Joyce Street, there is commercial property there. There is R-0 property there. Immediately across the street from them, I have R-0 property. Johnson: Does staff have anything to add to the applicant' s presentation or any questions? Conklin: Mr. Pendergraft is correct. This did go before the Planning Commission on June 10, 1996. It was tabled at that meeting. On July 22, 1996, the Planning Commission approved a tract that was 6.37 acres; a tract larger than this one. Planning Commission recommended R-0 zoning. It then went to the City Council on November 19, 1996. At that time, the applicant requested that the property be rezoned R- 1 . That is the reason why the property is zoned R- 1 at Planning Commission Minutes April 26, 1999 Page 13 the request of the applicant in 1996. This property is shown on our 2020 Future Land Use Map as office and staff has recommended residential office zoning for this piece of property. Pendergraft: I mentioned to every potential purchaser that there probably would be objection from people who lived across the street and they should be prepared to go through a large scale development with the Planning Commission and deal with the tree issue and that they may be better served by putting berms, trees, landscaping, or something along Joyce Street. They should anticipate that their access being from Sunbest Place which was built by myself and Dr. Smith and the Lattas and consider putting their parking in the back. Now that is not a condition of my contract of sale but everyone who has looked at that property is considering Sunbest Place to be the access to the property. Public Comment Ted Brewer residing at 2607 E. Joyce Blvd. which is directly across the street from the property in question spoke in opposition to the rezoning request. Bob Shaw residing at 2633 E. Joyce Blvd. spoke in opposition to the requested rezoning. Harvey Smith residing at 2600 E. Joyce Blvd. spoke in support of the requested rezoning. Loyde Hudson residing at 2488 E. Joyce Blvd. spoke in support of the requested rezoning. Robert Frans residing at 2517 E. Joyce Blvd. which is across the street from Dr. Hudson spoke in opposition to the rezoning request. Further Commission Discussion Johnson: There are 2 observations that I would make. First, looking at what is allowed in an R- 1 zone - City Wide Uses By Right, Government Facilities, Single Family and Two Family Dwellings, Offices, Studios and Related Services, and Professional Offices. There are other of things allow by conditional uses if approved by the Planning Commission. The other observation is that on the General Plan 2020 this stretch of Joyce Street on the north side is shown to be offices in that location. Hoffman : Staff, in looking at the one mile diameter zoning map on page 6.30, could you tell me of the six R-0 properties, are those full or leased to capacity or are they vacant. Conklin: Starting at the top of Zion Road, I believe that property is currently vacant on Randall. I don't think there is any development up there. The R-0 that is on Hwy 265 , that is Charter Vista and Youth Bridge. There could be some parcels that are undeveloped but there is Planning Commission Minutes April 26, 1999 Page 14 the medical offices and HealthSouth. Hoffman: Going west toward Parkview, there are three parcels over in that area. Conklin: I believe that is developed with the medical clinic and west of Parkview there are Dr. 's offices and Collier's Drug Store in that location. Hoffman: That you for refreshing my memory on that. The reason I asked is that we not only have this rezoning tonight but I think we have another 2. I'm curious if there is a need based on the sale of the existing zoning. Pendergraft: I can respond to the Paradise Valley property. There was a comment that a part of it was empty. The reason being is that we have a planned use development in process. I think Commissioner Ward will explain that we have turned down several potential tenants because we are looking for a certain size of building in there. The fourth building we plan to build in there is not ready to be built yet. We don't feel there is the need or the size building requested. Hoover: Staff, can the 2020 Plan that is laid out -- what was the criteria? I can understand the commercial at intersections. Conklin: We looked at office development along the north side of Joyce. We did extend that further to the west. That was one of the reasons we showed those on the 2020 Plan as office. We thought it was appropriate at that time with the Master Street Plan designating Joyce Boulevard as an arterial. Hoover: Because of the type of street. Conklin: The street and the existing development patten in that area. Hoover: On R-O is there a height limitation? Conklin: That is based on additional setback. The higher you go, you have additional setbacks. Hoover: There's no maximum height you could be. I am just concerned in this situation that someone might want to put a 4 or 5 story building right there. It wouldn't be very appropriate. Conklin: "There shall be no maximum height limits in R-0 districts pro-vided however that any building which exceeds a height of 20 feet shall be setback from any additional or boundary line of any R- 1 , R-2, or R-3 district an additional distance of 1 foot for each foot of height in Planning Commission Minutes April 26, 1999 Page 15 excess of 20 feet." Any additional height over 20 feet, you also have additional setback which is a 1 : 1 ratio. Johnson: Wouldn't this development come back before us as a large scale so that the Commission would see and have a say over the height of the building? Conklin: It would come back as a large scale development. As long as they met the ordinance requirement, they could potentially build a two story building. Odom: Is Dr. Dill involved in any way? Pendergraft: There are only 4 people involved. That is myself, my sister, Laurie Mason, Mike Hill and David Johnson. We are the four co-owners. Ward: I feel like it' s less obtrusive to have an R-0 zoning along an arterial street. The few residents out there are backing up to a golf course. MOTION Mr. Ward made a motion to approve RZ99-7. Mr. Marr seconded the motion. Johnson: The affect of this motion should it carry would be to recommend this to the City Council. Forney: I think this is a tough call. Rezonings are one of the most important things we do. This is situation where we have a couple of conflicting influences. On the one hand, if you think we should follow our General Land Use Plan which does indicate that this should be Residential Office. On the other hand, we should consider this as a matter of timing. Is this the right time to rezone? Is there a need for additional R-O? I appreciate Commissioner Hoffman' s adjoining zoning clarification. The concern I have while I think that this should ultimately go R-0 and it is appropriate is that I am a little concerned that we are setting a trend of path where relatively less expensive land is rezoned further out from existing zoned land which is not yet developed. We do have a good bit of existing R-0 land which is closer to the center and is also adjacent. There is cheaper property further out. We intend to encourage more spread, more sprawl, and more traffic problems. I think we need to mull this over. Odom: Call the question. Roll Call FAYETTEVILLE THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS 113W. Mountain St. Fayetteville, AR 72701 Telephone: (501 ) 575-8264 PLANNING DIVISION CORRESPONDENCE TO: Fayetteville Planning Commission Members THRU: Tim Conklin, City Planner FROM: Brent Vinson, Associate Planner DATE: April 26, 1999 RZ 99-7.00: Rezoning (Pendergraft, pp 176) was submitted by Neal Pendergraft for property located east of 2680 Joyce Street. The property is zoned R- 1 , Low Density Residential , and contains approximately 4.98 acres. The request is to rezone the property to R-O, Residential Office. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Staff recommends the requested rezoning . from R-1 to R-O based on the findings included as part of this report. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: YES Required Approved Denied Date: April 26, 1999 Comments: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: YES Required Approved Denied Date: Planning Commission Meeting April 26, 1999 RZ 99-7 Pendergraft Page 6. / BACKGROUND : The applicant .requests the rezoning of 4.98 acres of Low Density Residential property on East Joyce Blvd. to Residential-Office. The property is currently owned by Neal Pendergraft, Lauri Myers, and Michael Hill, et al. The property owners purchased the property with the intent of developing professional offices. The property is currently under contract for sale pursuant to the property being zoned R-O. The prospective purchaser also intends to build professional offices. Staff would encourage the prospective purchaser to consider locating parking lots behind the development along Joyce Blvd. The previous property owners obtained a lot split to create this property and three other adjacent properties from one parent property. One condition of the lot split was that Sunbest Place (street) be constructed to provide appropriate frontage to all four properties. (The properties created in this lot split are shown on the parcel map provided in this packet) On November 19, 1996, Mr. and Mrs. Perry Crawford brought this property to City Council requesting rezoning from A- I to R-O. There was much opposition at the time from the townhouse owners against this rezoning. The City Council rezoned the property to R- 1 . One townhouse property owner from across the street, Ted Brewer, stated that the townhouses property owner' s association was not in objection to the R- 1 zoning but feared this rezoning would be used as a stepping stone to reach an R-O rezoning. (Please refer to the City Council minutes included in this packet.) Mr. Pendergraft has submitted a letter responding to the opposition against the proposed ' rezoning. (Please refer to the applicant' s letter regarding the history of previous actions on this property and surrounding properties.) ADJACENT LAND USE AND ZONING: North: Two single family residences exist north of the property, zoned R- 1 and owned by Dr. and Mrs. Harvey Smith and Mr. and Mrs. Dick Latta. South: Six duplexes exist south of Joyce Blvd. on property zoned R-2. The duplexes abut Paradise Valley Golf Course. East: R-O offices (Paradise Valley Center) existjust east of Sunbest Place. The offices include three dentist' s offices, a computer training company, and the local office for Alltel. West: A single family residence owned by Dr. Arlene Hudson is located to the west.
