This development will have approximately 150 units on 54.47 acres of land. Therefore, ordinance 3793 requires the Parks Division to accept a land dedication. The ordinance states as follows: However, if the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board determines that a neighborhood park is not feasible or advisable, it may recommend to the City Council that a cash contribution pursuant to our ordinance be accepted in lieu of land dedication.

Meredith 1505 Deane Street Fayetteville, AR 72703 (501)443-2675 douglasm(..uark.edu Parks and Recreation Advisory Board City of Fayetteville Administration Building Fayetteville. AR. 72701 To Whom It Mav Concern: I am writing to address noise issues related to the proposed developr..tcnt of the Lewis Street soccer complex. I own the propeny at 1505 Deane Street, abutting the northeast corner of the proposed development area. I understand that the existing soccer folds provide a valuable community center and I am not against further development in principle. However, I feel very strongly that significant actions must be taken to control increased noise from these fields. Activity on the current fields already causes a lot of noise and further development of this complex will only make matters worse. 1 ani requesting that two contingent conditions be added to the development plan. 1. As part of the initial development of the Lewis complex. a line of juniper trees was planted along the north perimeter to muffle noise reaching neighbors along that side. I want this line of junipers extended to the northeast corner. Further, I would like Parks and Recreation to evaluate the feasibility of constructing a berm. similar to the one planned for pan of the east perimeter. along the north perimeter. 2. Currently. there is no city ordinance regarding how early in the morning these fields can be used. It is common for people to begin playing on these fields. with the associated yelling and cheering, as early as 7:OOam on Sundays. I want a city ordinance limiting use of these fields to no earlier than 9:0Oam on Sundays. Again, 1 understand the importance of community centers like these soccer fields and I support their development as long as sufficient consideration is given to adjacent propeny owners. Thank you for your attention and consideration in these requests. Sincerely, Douglas D.
