From: Dawn T. Warrick, AICP, Zoning and Development Administrator
Date: April 15, 2004
Subject: Annexation for Harper/Brandon (ANX 04-05.00)
RECOMMENDATION
Planning Staff recommends approval of the requested annexation for Harper/Brandon.
This action will incorporate a 9.99 acre tract of land contiguous with the city limits into
the City of Fayetteville. The request is to annex the subject property into the City of
Fayetteville.
BACKGROUND
The subject property is 9.99 acres and located east of Crossover Road (principal arterial),
north of Copper Creek Phase II, and south of Springdale city limits. It is adjacent to the
city limits along its southern boundary where it abuts the Copper Creek Phase II, an
approved preliminary plat. The north, east, and south boundaries are not contiguous to
the City limits. Although the tract of land will result in the expansion of a peninsula, it
will create a city boundary that will extend to the Planning Area boundary. Connectivity
and off -site improvements will be evaluated at the time of development.
Proposal: The applicant requests annexation into the City of Fayetteville, along with a
companion rezoning request.
DISCUSSION
On April 12, 2004, the Planning Commission voted 8-0-0 to forward this item to the City
Council with a recommendation for approval with an accompanying rezoning request.

West: Copper Creek Dr. (local)
Water: The property will have access to an 8" looped water main systern that is being
installed with Copper Creek Phase 2 subdivision. An extension of the water main
will be required to provide water supply and fire protection within any

FINDINGS:
11.6 ANNEXATION GUIDING POLICIES
BOUNDARIES
11.6.a Annex existing islands and peninsulas and do not annex areas that would create an
island or peninsula.
Finding: The requested annexation will extend an existing peninsula to the north. The
extension will, however create an appropriate boundary that will extend to the
Planning Area boundary. No island, a tract of county property completely
surrounded by a municipality, will be created by annexing the subject property.
11.6.b Proposed annexation area must be adjacent, or contiguous, to city limits.
Finding: .The proposed annexation area is adjacent to the City Limits to the south for
approximately 1300 feet.
11.6.c Areas should either include or exclude entire subdivisions or neighborhoods, not
divide.
Finding: This area does not consist of defined subdivisions or neighborhoods; however,
future development plans may include the extension of the Copper Creek
subdivision.
11.6.d Boundaries for annexed areas should follow natural corridors.
Finding: Proposed boundaries follow property lines.
11.6.e Timing of services within annexation areas should be considered.
Finding: Current conditions result in a response time of just over 8 minute for fire
protection from the Fire Station #4 and just over 9 minutes from Fire Station
#5. Any development in this area would necessitate installation of hydrants
to provide for fire protection. The site will have access to an 8" sewer main
that is being installed with Copper Creek Phase 2 subdivision. Sewer will
need to be extended within the development. Verification that this area is
within the Fayetteville water service territory shall be determined at such
time development occurs on the subject property.

training of personnel, number of units and response time.
Finding: These factors were taken into consideration in the responses and
recommendations included in this report.
INFRASTRUCTURE AND UTILITIES
11.6.j Areas currently served by utilities and other public services should be annexed.

11.61 Proposed annexation areas should not require the upgrading of utilities to meet the
demands of development unless there is a threat to public safety.
Finding: Improvements to sewer and street systems and installation of fire hydrants
would be made necessary by the annexation should additional development
occur on the subject property.
11.6.1 Phased annexation should be initiated by the City within active annexation areas
based on planned service extensions or availability of services.

Planning Commission
April 12, 2004
ANX 04-05.00: Annexation (Harper/Brandon, pp 61) was submitted by Michelle
Harrington of Harrington, Miller, Neihouse & Krug, P.A. on behalf of Craig and Karyn
Harper and Gary Brandon for property located at Albright Road and George Anderson
Road. The property is in the Planning Area and contains approximately 9.99 acres. The
request is to annex the subject property into the City of Fayetteville.
RZN 04-04.00: Rezoning (Harper/Brandon, pp 61) was submitted by Michelle
Harrington of Harrington, Miller, Neihouse & Krug, P.A. on behalf of Craig and Karyn
Harper and Gary Brandon for property located at Albright Road and George Anderson
Road. The property is zoned R-A, Residential Agricultural and contains approximately
9.99 acres. The request is to rezone the subject property to RSF-4, Residential Single-
family, 4 units per acre.
Ostner: The next item on our agenda is ANX 04-05.00 for Harper/Brandon.
Morgan: I will review the Annexation request along with the Rezoning request
together.
Warrick: They will require separate votes but since they are the same property you
might want to hear them together.
Ostner: Ok, so we are going to hear the rezoning and discuss it and then we will
hear the annexation and discuss it and vote on them separately.
Morgan: I will review the annexation first. The subject property contains two tracts
of property equaling 9.99 acres. This property is vacant and it is located
east of Crossover Road, a principal arterial, and north of Copper Creek
Phase II, an approved Preliminary Plat. It is also south of'the Springdale
city limits. The property is adjacent to the city limits along it's southern
boundary for approximately 1,300 feet and this is where it abuts Copper
Creek Phase II. The applicant is proposing the Annexation of the property
into the City of Fayetteville. We noted a rezoning request has been
submitted for this property. Staff has reviewed this and made some
findings. The requested annexation will extend an existing peninsula to
the north. The extension, however, will create an appropriate boundary
that will extend to the Planning Area boundary limits. No island
completely surrounded by a municipality will be created by annexing this
subject property. In addition, this area does not consist of a defined
subdivision or neighborhoods. However, future development plans may
include the extension of the Copper Creek subdivision and proposed
boundaries for property lines. Current conditions result in a fire response
time of just over eight minutes from Fire Station #4 and over nine minutes
from Fire Station #5. Any development in this area would necessitate
installation of hydrants and other such infrastructure improvements to the
area. The Police Department reports that current levels of service would
not be compromised and that coverage in this area can be provided.
Planning Commission • •
April 12, 2004
Annexations into the city automatically are zoned R-A and the applicant is
requesting to rezone to RSF-4. I will review the findings that staff has
made for that request for a rezoning. The proposed zoning is for single
family residential and is compatible with the proposed land use to the
south. The land use to the east is utilized for single family residential and
agricultural uses with the property to the west vacant. A higher density
than the R-A district allows for development of a subdivision with density
appropriate in this area and would provide compatibility to the south.
With those findings, staff is recommending approval of the requested
Annexation and Rezoning.
Ostner: Thank you Ms. Morgan. Is the applicant present? Could you introduce
yourself?
Harrington: My name is Mickey Harrington, I'm the attorney for the Brandons and the
Harpers. With me tonight is the engineer on the project, Brian Moore of
ESI and Mr. and Mrs. Brandon. If you have any questions we are here to
answer them. I don't think there is anything to present that staff has not
already told you about. We do request approval of both the Annexation
and the Rezoning.
Ostner: Thank you. At this point I will open it up for public comment. If you
would like to come forward and tell us your name and give us your
comments.
Stewart: I am Alan Stewart, I live on George Anderson Road. Some of us here live
on single houses on multiple acres and we are a little bit concerned about
having 40 houses jammed on 10 acres. We are concerned about traffic,
we are concerned about drainage, we are concerned about the width of
Albright Road, which is already very narrow. The other person eluded to
the fire coverage, we are also concerned about that. I would like to have
these questions answered. None of us, as far as I know, has yet seen a plat
of this property and we would like to have some of these questions
answered. Thank you.
Ostner: We'll try to do that tonight.
Nooncaster: My name is John Nooncaster, my property abuts this. I have a map of this
if you wouldn't mind taking a look at this. It is kind of a long story. I'll
try to make it short and not burden you too much. The pink color on this
map is Albright Road is here, this is the City of Springdale. The City of
Fayetteville is along the western portion of this map. The City of
Fayetteville also continues to the south of the Harper property, which is
the brownish, orange property located here. I own the two tracts of
property that are colored in yellow here. In this area bounded by George
Anderson Road there are approximately 40 acres that are still county
Planning Commission • •
April 12, 2004
property. Out of this you are having an Annexation request for 10 acres
tonight. Two weeks from now I have an application for an Annexation of
the southern 20 acres that I own in this area as well. I had discussions
with Ms. Warrick about a year ago and I was getting her opinion on staff s
recommendation of bringing in both tracts of property that I own in this
area. She said that there was a concern by the Planning Department that
the blue tract here, which is approximately a three acre tract, would create
an island if I brought my Annexation without that property. After much
time and effort I decided it was better to bring an application for only the
20 acre tract and not for the 7 acre tract that is north of that because I felt
that at some time in the future there would be a request for this Harper
property to be brought into the city and they would face the same issue
that I was facing, the creation of an island. If you read the General Plan
2020 it says one of the guiding principles is that annexations of existing
islands and peninsulas should be formed. It says we should not annex
areas that would create an island or a peninsula. Developers are often
accused of trying to circumvent the rules and trying to get loop holes. If
you read the finding that staff has it says no island, a tract of county
property completely surrounded by a municipality will be created by
annexing the subject property. That statement is totally true but the item
that is glossed. over in that statement is the fact that it will not be
surrounded by a municipality. There will be 30 acres in this area that will
be completely surrounded by the municipalities of Fayetteville and
Springdale. In my reading of that it says an island. It does not say an
island that is surrounded by one municipality, it says an island. That is
why I have chosen when I had my chance to make an application for the
20 acres that I did not brim the seven acres in because I had a discussion
with Mr. Pate on March 1 V and he also voiced similar concerns about the
creation of an island with this three acres of property. Apparently, if you
create a three acre island it seems to be a trouble, you create a 30 acre
island apparently there is not trouble with it. That was the comments I
had. If anybody has any additional questions I would be happy to answer
them.
Ostner: Are there other members of the audience who would like to comment on
both the Annexation and Rezoning?
Rothenberger: My name is Andrea Rothenberger. My husband and I also own acreage
wit all of the folks in our row on George Anderson Road and we have not
been approached at all, unlike some of the others I've heard tonight, by the
applicant at all, Mr. Brandon or Mr. Harper in regard to what the plans are
for the residential rezoning. I would like to know and I think others of us
would just like to know a little bit more and have more information in
general about what the intent is on the square footage of the homes and in
general what would be planned for homes there.
Planning Commission • •
April 12, 2004
Ostner: Thank you. Are there other members of the public who would like to
comment on this issue?
Stewart: My name is Catherine Stewart and I also own property on George
Anderson Road. My question is George Anderson Road is currently a
gravel road. Is the plan to pave this or maintain it as a gravel road and
what would be the implication of additional traffic on a gravel road during
the winter and the summer when there is a lot of dust?
Ostner: Are there other members of the public who would like to comment on
these two items? Seeing none, I will close it to the public and bring it
back to the Commission for discussion with the applicant.
Anthes: I wondered if staff might talk to the neighbors on George Anderson Road
and tell them when in the process they will be privy to the development
plans.
Warrick: The process is just getting started at this point in time. We are considering
annexing 9.99 acres into the city limits of Fayetteville and should that be
approved by the City Council the request is for that property to then be
zoned for single family residential use with no more than four units per
acre. Once that is in place, should the Council approve those two requests,
the applicant would then be able to submit a development proposal to the
city showing a Preliminary Plat to layout a subdivision showing street
connections, how many lots, what size lots, where detention is, and what
improvements would be going along with that particular development.
That will go again through the Planning Commission review process. It
will be heard at two public hearings through the Planning Commission
process prior to approval. That is a secondary action once this particular
request and it's accompanying rezoning request are through the process.
Should the Council choose not to annex the property or zone it we would
not see a development proposal unless the applicant chose to develop a
project in the city's Planning Area, which would not be required to meet
certain development criteria of the city.
Moore: I'm Brian Moore with Engineering Services. Copper Creek Phase II abuts
George Anderson Road. In Copper Creek Phase II we are making
improvements to our side of George Anderson Road to the city standards
and the other side, the east side, to the county standards. I would assume
that it would be the same. The development of this acreage we would end
up doing the same thing.
MOTION:
Anthes: By annexing the property we are able
to, as
a city,
require a
higher level of
standards for that street development
than
if the
property
remains

county. Knowing that, I would like to move to send ANX 04-05.00 to the
City Council with a recommendation for approval.
Shackelford: I will second.
Ostner: We have a motion and a second. Is there any other discussion on this
issue?
Trumbo: Mr. Nooncaster's concern about the island, I was wondering if the staff
could comment on that.
Warrick: Staff believes that what is being created here, while it will be a 30 acre
tract of land that is surrounded on all four sides by incorporated properties,
on three sides by the City of Fayetteville and on the north by the City of
Springdale, with regard to the Annexation policy, we are not creating an
island that the city would then have the ability to control by annexing it
through ordinance as we could if that piece of property were surrounded
on all four sides by the City of Fayetteville. I believe what we have here
is a timing issue. It is a situation where the property to the east has come
before, the Nooncaster property, which is slated for your agenda on the
261h. With regard to whether the three acre Kelly tract is then of issue, that
is something that we have to weigh the Annexation policy against. In
reality, should the Council choose to annex this 10 acres that we are
considering tonight, I believe it makes the case even stronger for the
Nooncaster and Kelly properties to be annexed into the City of
Fayetteville because they are surrounded on three sides by the City of
Fayetteville. They are within the City of Fayetteville Planning Area,
which is the designated boundary that we feel will become annexed to the
city within a 25 to 30 year span. Therefore, being suitable to be annexed
into the city. It is a timing issue and what we see first, second and last is
really based on when applicants propose to go into the process. The city is
not actively reaching out and annexing by election at this point in time.
There are other communities in Northwest Arkansas that are choosing to
do that right now but it is not something that the City of Fayetteville
desires to do. We look for people to petition to annex into the city and
then once we have the application in process and understand what's being
requested, we analyze that against our adopted policies to make a
recommendation to you and to the City Council on that request.
Ostner: Thank you. Is there any other discussion? Renee, can you call the roll
please?
Roll Call: Upon the completion of roll call the motion to forward ANX 04-05.00 to
the City Council with a recommendation for approval was approved by a
vote of 8-0-0.
Planning Commission • •
April 12, 2004
Thomas: The motion carries eight to zero.
Ostner: The next item is tandem to this, RZN 04-04.00 for Harper Brandon, the
same parcel and the same project we have already been talking about. We
have already heard a presentation. Commissioners, do you have
discussion on this Rezoning?
Shackelford: Based on what we just did, the request was an annexation. The property
comes in under bylaw as zoned Agricultural. On the 2020 Plan and
looking at adjoining neighborhoods, it makes a lot more sense I think to
be zoned RSF-4 with a maximum of four units per acre. Based on staff s
findings and those two points of fact, I•will make a motion that we
recommend approval to the City Council of RZN 04-04.00.
Anthes: I will second. I would also like to encourage the developers to have a
meeting with the neighbors as you develop your recommendations for the
plan.
Ostner: Thank you. We have a motion by Commissioner Shackelford and a
second by Commissioner Anthes. I would just like to reiterate that this is
merely a land use decision and the development will come back before us
and the public will have an opportunity at that point to talk about the
details, the nuts and bolts that they want to hear about with this piece of
property. Is there further discussion?
Clark: I think that is a very important determination to make very clear. I think
that this Commission will follow the development of this property very
closely especially with regard to the concerns of the neighbors in the
surrounding area so I would follow up on the suggestion that the
developers work closely with the neighbors because there obviously, are a
lot of concerns with what now happens to this property. Because it has
been annexed and we are about to take the next vote, it gives you much
more voice in the whole process.
Ostner: Thank you Ms. Clark. Is there further discussion on RZN 04-04.00?
Renee?
Roll Call: Upon the completion of roll call the motion to forward RZN 04-04.00 to
the City Council with a recommendation for approval was approved by a
vote of 8-0-0.
Thomas: The motion carries eight to zero.
