PRESENT: City Manager Don Grimes, City Attorney Jim McCord, City Clerk Darlene Westbrook; and Directors John Todd, Paul Noland, Al Hughes, David Malone, Philip Colwell, and Ann Henry. ABSENT: Director Ernest Lancaster OTHERS PRESENT: Members of the audience and representatives of the news media. CALL TO ORDER 180.1 In the absence of Mayor Lancaster, Vice -Mayor Todd called the special session to order for the purpose of considering agenda items which would have normally been considered on the regular meeting date of February 21, 1978. Following roll call and a moment of respectful silence, Vice -Mayor Todd called for consideration of the first item of business. REZONING APPEAL - R78-1 / Highway 16 West / Randall Barnes, Ray Rastall, petitioners III 180.2 The petitioners had requested the Planning Commission approve rezoning 30 acres located on the north side of Highway 16 West, 1; miles west of U. S. 71 Bypass, from A-1 Agricultural to C-2 Thoroughfare Commercial and R-2 Medium Density Residential. The petitioners appealed the Planning Commission's final approval to rezone all the property R-1 Low Density Residential. 180.3 Attorney Richard Osborne was present to represent Mr. Barnes in the appeal. Osborne stated that Barnes had been under the erroneous impression that approval of a preliminary plat of the development showing the proposed R-2 zoning classifications had also granted approval of the R-2 zoning. Although the R-2 was not approved at the time of the plat approval, Osborne felt that approval of the plat showing R-2 classifications indicated a willingness on the part of the Planning Commission to have R-2 in that area. Osborne stated that public sewer had been extended westward to Barnes' property and at Barnes' expense. Osborne contended that development at the Ruple Road intersection east of Barnes' property was not likely in the near future since sewer is not available. He did not believe that sewer would be available in the near future since installation of a sewer lift station would be required. 180.4 The petitioner felt that commercial is desirable in the area since the nearest commercial center was several miles away. Citing existing duplexes in the area, Osborne believed a need for additional housing exists in the area. He said the petitioner would be willing to execute a bill of assurances that only duplexes would be constructed in the R-2 area. He said his client was aware that duplexes could be placed in R-1 on a conditional basis but that the conditional use permit would not allow his client to construct the number of duplexes which he desires. 180.5 Osborne informed the Board that the rezoning request did not include all the land that will eventually be subdivided, but that it did represent what they believed 180 2/20/78 181 to be a logical zoning progression; i.e., commercial and R-1 residential buffered by R-2 residential. Director Colwell felt establishment of R-2 prior to R-1 residential would be 181.1 a desirable method by which to avert future disagreements over rezoning after the R-1 residential had been established. Director Malone said that the Board had committed itself to location of commercial activities at mayor intersections approximately one mile apart. He believed a commitment for commercial at this location would result in similar requests for commercial along the entire corridor of Highway 16 West and could ultimately result in the commercial stripping similar to that of Highway 71. He also emphasized the expense and inefficiency of providing services to the peripheal areas of the City when much vacant land remains to be developed nearer the City. He felt it would be better to rezone areas closer to the City for N R-2 usesrather tha providing R-2 at the edge of the City which would result in a strain on provision of City services. He believed the Board was faced with making a decision which would be in the best interest of the City and believed the Planning Q Commission had made a decision based on guidance of previous City boards. QOsborne argued that approval of the request would not constitute strip zoning 181.2 and reiterated that development at the Ruple Road intersection would depend upon the installation of a sewer lift station. Osborne felt that lack of flexibility on the Board's policy could result in the installation of septic tanks. Director Colwell noted that considerable commercial activity is developing 181.3 west of the City and that Barnes' property was annexed recently so that the resi- dents would pay for the City services received. City Manager Grimes stated that he had understood that the annexation dealt with residential development. Director Malone did not feel that the request was so much wrong as it was premature, particularly since services are more efficiently provided to areas close -in rather than to those lying on the fringes of the City. He moved the entire 30 acres be rezoned R-1. The motion was seconded by Director Noland and the recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: Colwell Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed. The City Attorney read an ordinance to rezone the property R-1. Director 181.4 Noland, seconded by Malone, moved rules be suspended and the ordinance placed on second reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the second time. Director Malone, seconded by Henry, moved rules be further suspended and the 181.5 ordinance placed on third and final reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland; Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the third and final time. During further discussion, Director Malone indicated he might reconsider his 181.6 position if a plat of the entire development could be submitted which would show street extension, particularly that of Carriage Way, which might result in the creation of a mayor intersection. Director Colwell, seconded by Hughes, moved the ordinance be tabled to allow the petitioner to formulate a more specific plat. The recorded vote was: Ayes,: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was left on third reading. 181 2/20/78 182 ORDINANCE REZONING PROPERTY - R78-2 / Johnson Road & Highway 71 Bypass / Helen Adams 182.1 The petitioner had requested rezoning 3.02 acres, located on the northeast corner of the Johnson Road and 71 Bypass intersection, from I-1 Heavy Commercial to C-2 Thoroughfare Commercial. 182.2 During discussion, Mr. Ed Adams, representing the petitioner, stated that the petitioner was aware that a portion of the property was in a flood plain and that the State Highway Department is currently considering plans for the construc- tion of either an overpass or access ramps at the intersection. Adams stated he had been in contact with the Highway Department who indicated that the plans for the intersection are still tentative. He doubted that any development would qualify as large scale since the existence of the flood plain would limit the amount of developable land. He said that construction would not be planned until Highway Department plans for the intersection had been finalized. 182.3 The City Attorney read an ordinance to rezone the property above a mean sea level of 1,191 feet as C-2 Thoroughfare Commercial, and that property lying below the mean sea level of 1,191 feet as F-1 Flood Plain. Director Malone, seconded by Henry, moved rules be suspended and the ordinance placed on second reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the second time. 182.4 Director Malone, seconded by Henry, moved rules be further suspended and the ordinance placed on third and final reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the third and final time. 182.5 There being no further discussion, the Vice -Mayor asked if the ordinance should pass. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The ordinance was declared passed. ORDINANCE NO. 2419 APPEARS ON PAGE 26 OF ORDINANCE & RESOLUTION BOOK VI ORDINANCE REZONING PROPERTY - R78-3 / Zion Road / Ball Family Trust, petitioner 182.6 The petitioner had requested rezoning 7.44 acres, located on the south side of Zion Road, west of Highway 265, from A-1 Agricultural to R-1 Low Density Residential. The City Attorney informed that the petitioner had executed a bill of assurance that no development would occur until sewer facilities are available. 182.7 The City Attorney read an ordinance to rezone the property as requested and as approved by the Planning Commission. Director Hughes, seconded by Malone, moved rules be suspended and the ordinance placed on second reading.

Albright. The proposal offered was that ad- jacent property owners would participate in material, contract work plus engineer- ing up to, but not exceeding $6,000; with $4,500 being paid by Albright and $1,500 being paid by the Church of the Nazarene. The proposal was good for a period of 60 days from February 8, 1978. Mr. Don Peterson, resident of a nearby subdivision, recalled that Albright's 183.4 recent rezoning request had been approved after assurances that the proposed office development would provide a good buffer between the residential area and Old Wire Road. At the time of the rezoning, he recalled that Albright had stated he had no interest in opening the street. Extension of the street would, Peterson believed, counter arguments which had been made in favor of the rezoning approval. He said exits from the subdivision are available including an outlet onto Old Wire Road from Stanton Avenue. Most of the traffic remains on Rolling Hills Drive, Peter- son contended, and an additional outlet onto Old Wire Road would compound existing heavy traffic volumes. He felt the Board should postpone action on the proposal until the residents of the neighborhood are able to express their views. Mr. Albright stated that it had been his intention to seek closure of the 183.5 street but that the Street Superintendent indicated he would recommend the street extension. Director Todd stated that the extension had been partially initiated by the Street Superintendent in view of traffic congestion problems at Loxley. The City Manager stated it seemed obvious that the plat of the area indicated the street was meant to be extended and he believed the extension should be made. He admitted that, as a resident of the subdivision, he did have some personal interest in the project. He proposed, and requested authorization, to extend sidewalks northeasterly from their existing point of termination towards Butter- field school. He noted that the sidewalks are used primarily by school children. Director Malone stated his intention to abstain from discussion and voting since he has family with property in the area.. Responding to comments by Mr. Peterson that sufficient notice had not been 183.6 given to the residents, Director Noland noted that the proposed extension had been advertised as an item of the agenda to be considered by the Board. Director Noland moved the matter be tabled for two weeks to allow residents of the subdivision to make their views known. The motion died for lack of second. The City Attorney read a resolution to authorize the extension of Oakcliff. 183.7 Director Colwell, seconded by Henry, moved the adoption of the resolution and that 183 2/20/78 184 the City Manager be authorized to pursue construction of sidewalks in accordance with his proposal. The Vice -Mayor asked if the motion should pass. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Abstain: Malone Absent: Lancaster The resolution was declared passed. 184.1 Mr. Albright clarified that any expenses in excess of $6,000 was proposed to be assumed by the City. RESOLUTION NO. 11-78 APPEARS ON PAGE 37 OF ORDINANCE & RESOLUTION BOOK VI ORDINANCE CHANGING STREET NAME - East Ridge Road 184.2 Property owners of lots facing East Ridge Road in the Country Club Estate sub- division had requested the Board consider changing the street's name to Fairway Lane. They indicated that the present name could be confused with East Ridgeway located in another subdivision. 184.3 The City Attorney read an ordinance to change the name as requested. Director Noland, seconded by Henry, moved rules be suspended and the ordinance placed on second reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the second time. 184.4 Director Hughes, seconded by Malone, moved rules be further suspended and the ordinance placed on third and final reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent; Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the third and final time. 184.5 There being no discussion, the Vice -Mayor asked if the ordinance should pass. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The ordinance was declared passed. ORDINANCE NO. 2421 APPEARS ON PAGE 28 OF ORDINANCE & RESOLUTION BOOK VI SELECTION OF ENGINEER - Multi Purpose Recreational Facility 184.6 Mr. George "Skip" Holland, representing the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, reported that the engineering firm of McClelland Consulting Engineers has been recommended to be retained to design and supervise the construction of the multi-purpose recreational facility at the Youth Center. The City Manager stated that all local architects and engineering firms had been invited to submit proposals for the project. Holland reported that seven proposals had been received -- six from architects and one from an engineering firm. 184.7 Present at the meeting was a group of architects who objected to the City considering retaining the services of an engineer for a project which they felt was principally an architectural project. Mr. Newt Hailey, architect, stated that the only engineering firm to respond to the invitation had only recently chosen 184 1 1 2/20/78 185 to hire an architect to work on the project. A letter from Mr. Murray Smart, University of Arkansas School of Architecture, had been received by the Board. Mr. Smart expressed concern that the City was considering an engineering firm to perform architectural functions in regard to the construction of the facility. Architect Carl Russell cited the Arkansas Architect Act which stipulates that 185.1 no person shall practice architecture in the state, or prepare plans or specifica- tions, for any building located within the state unless the person has complied with Arkansas registration and licensing requirements. Mr. Elam Denham, architect, further stated that architecture and engineering are recognized as distinct and separate professions but that architects may call upon engineers for design services. He requested the Board consider requesting the Advisory Board to recommend retain- ing an architectural firm for design of the building. N Architect Paul Young stated he could not help but feel the City would be 185.2 (Y) better off by retaining an architect for the project. He said he could not recall ID the City ever considering archi-tectsto do engineering projects. Mr. Hailey said U they did not object to the selection process but that they would be interested in Q knowing why an engineer had been recommended. Holland replied that the Advisory Board had not made any efforts in the selection process until the proposals had Q been submitted to the Advisory Board and the Youth Center Board after receipt by the City Manager's Office. An interview committee composed of five persons con- tacted each person who had submitted aproposal and scheduled interviews. References were provided by each person and the committee consulted three of the references provided. He said the interviews carried a great deal of weight in, his personal decision as well as the proposed fee and the City's ability to work with the firm or person. However, he said each committee member selected a first, second, and third choice and indicated the choices by secret ballot. Holland said that the McClelland firm, .with a proposed 6 percent fee, had proposed one of the two lowest fees. The City Manager stated that the City had previously been involved in 185.3 situations where it was difficult to determine if a project was mainly architectural or engineering. He said the Building Inspector indicated that an engineer, as well as an architect, could prepare plans for the project and receive approval from the Inspection Department. Mr. Ep McClelland stated that the project would have a consulting architect. 185.4 Mr. Hailey stated he had contacted the proposed consulting architect (the firm of Fletcher, Miller, Dean of Little Rock) and had been informed that there was no firm written agreement with the McClelland firm. Hailey said the concern was that the overall control be placed with an architect. Mr. McClelland recalled events of past years regarding the issue of determining 185.5 which projects require either an architect or an engineer but that no resolution of the problem resulted. He cited that each engineer and architect shall under- take projects which principal services required shall be those for which he is licensed. McClelland contended that more structural considerations than architec- tural design considerations would be involved. McClelland questioned the necessity for an architect to be the prime designer since his firm proposed to have an archi- tect design the structure and an engineer to deal with engineering aspects. He stated his firm had originally intended to employ an architect. A local architect declined to provide consulting services, McClelland said, therefore, the firm of Fletcher, Miller Dean had been contacted. The consulting architect will perform services common to any design, McClelland stated. Director Malone recalled that neither professional licensing board had been 185.6 able to agree on scope of services for either the architect or engineer. He said the City Board had no way of determining those scopes of services but that he 185 2/20/78 186 personally felt the architects had the better legal argument. He said he would be inclined to favor the Advisory Board recommendation in order to allow the project to proceed. He said the Board is not equipped to resolve the issue and stated that the respective professional boards had not been able to agree on the scopes of services. 186.1 Youth Center Board member Jim McGuire did not think that the arguments being presented would have affected the final recommendation. He felt the recommenda- tion represented how the entire committee felt. He did not think the recommenda- tion would be changed if the process were repeated. 186.2 Upon completion of discussion, Director Malone, seconded by Colwell, moved acceptance of the recommendation. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed. RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING APPLICATION FOR ADDITIONAL SECTION VIII FUNDS 186.3 The City Attorney read a resolution which would authorize the application for additional Section VIII housing funds to provide 120 additional housing units. During slight discussion, Fayetteville Housing Authority Administrator, Chad Kumpe, told the Board that the program is available to families who meet certain income criteria but it is not available to residents of the 235 rent supplement programs. 186.4 Director Noland, seconded by Malone, moved adoption of the resolution. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland Nays: Hughes Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed. RESOLUTION NO. 12-78 APPEARS ON PAGE 38 OF ORDINANCE & RESOLUTION BOOK VI ORDINANCE VACATING AND ABANDONING ALLEYS 186.5 At the request of the Fayetteville Housing Authority, the Board considered vacating alleys between Block Avenue and Church Avenue between Spring and Mountain Streets in order to facilitate the completion of the Urban Renewal project. 186.6 Housing Authority Administrator Chad Kumpe stated that some of the alleys appear in the plat books but do not physically exist. He noted that HUD will re- quire all alleys be brought up to standard before the Urban Renewal project can be closed. Vacating nonexistent alleys would, Kumpe said, avoid confusion during the process. 186.7 The City Attorney read an ordinance to abandon the alleys as requested. Director Noland, seconded by Todd, moved rules be suspended and the ordinance placed on second reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the second time. 186.8 Director Colwell, seconded by Noland, moved rules be further suspended and the ordinance placed on third and final reading. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed and the ordinance was read the third and final time. 186 1 1 2/20/78 187 The Vice -Mayor asked if the ordinance should pass. The recorded vote was: 187.1 Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The ordinance was declared passed.

He emphasized that the authorization would not award a construction contract. A portion of the project would be completed with city crews with another portion being let for bids. Director Henry moved that the City accept low bid on materials for Deane/Porter 187.7 Road waterline replacement and that authorization be given to proceed with bids for construction of the Porter Road to Raven portion. The motion was seconded by Director Noland. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The motion was declared passed. RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING WATER CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT - Greenland The City Attorney read a resolution authorizing execution of a contract with Jerry Sweetser Construction Company for replacement of water lines at Wilson and Napier Streets in the City of Greenland. 187 187.8 2/20/78 188 188.1 City Engineer Don Bunn stated that the pro0ect would exceed the budgeted amount by approximately $4,000. He said the 8 -inch water line would reinforce Greenland's system and would allow possible future ties into the rural water system to the west. Installation of fire hydrants are to be included in the project. 188.2 Director Malone, seconded by Noland, moved adoption of the resolution. The recorded vote was: Ayes: Malone, Colwell, Henry, Todd, Noland, Hughes Nays: None Absent: Lancaster The resolution was declared passed.
