MINUTES OF FAYETTEVILLE CITY PIANNING COMMISSION
Members of the Fayetteville City Commission met in special session at 4:00 p.m.,

The matter of the deed to the City of Fayetteville by Dr. William Center for 25 feet
for a right -o£ -way for an extension of 15th Street, referred to the Commission by
the Council but action on which had been deferred at the November 1 meeting was
brought up. Discussion brought out that another property owner is giving an addit=
ional 25 feet for the street and that the issue on which the Council wanted a
recommendation from the Commission is whether or not this street, shown on the Master
Street Plan as an 84 -foot street, should be reduced to a 50 -foot street. On motion
by Mr. Yoe, seconded by Mr. Stubblefield, it was unanimously voted to recommend to
the Council acceptance of Dr. Centerts deed, but that the Master Street Plan not be
changed; that acquistiion of necessary additional land ultimately to create an 84 -
foot street be left for future action.
The petition for re -zoning Garriott Subdivision and part of Andersonts Second
Addition from R-2 zone (Two-family Residential) to I-2 (Heavy Industrial) was
• presented. Three owners of residences in the area affected expressed objections
and said they represented other objectors. Henry Shreve of Campbell Soup
Company explained that the concern planning to use most of the east portion of
the area for parking only. After considerable discussion, objections by the
persons appearing were withdrawn, and on the motion of Mr. Gose, seconded by
Mr. Yoe, it was unanimously voted to recommend to the Council that the petition
be granted.
The matter of the Hatfield Subdivision Plat, referred back to the Commission
by the Council and action on which had been deferred at the Commission's
November 1 meeting, was discussed. Jimmy Hatfield, owner of the tract, was
present. The proposed plat was reviewed with Mr. Hatfield with suggestions
for possible alterations on the layout of the lots. On motion of Miss Lighton,
seconded by Mr. Gose, it was unanimously voted that Mr. Hatfield attempt a
further revision of the plat in an effort to provide streets of the minimum
width required by the Subdivision Regulations Ordinance, and Mr. Hatfield was
asked to return the plat to the Commission for further study at the next meeting.
Mr. Nelson was asked by the chairman to confer with the City Building Inspector
and report at the Commission's next regular meeting in regard to the possible
advisability of a change in the parking lot requirement in congested business
sections when business structures are rebuilt.
The matter of the petition of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Paul and of Mr. and Mrs.
Garland Lierly and the re -zoning from Zone R -1B to Zone C-1 of part of the South-
west Quarter of the Northwest Quarter, Section 8, Township 16 North, Range 30 West
(Curry Grocery) was presented. W. J. Murphy spoke for the petitioners, pointing

• out that the first tentative proposed zoning map had showed the area as C-1.
The tract covered by the petition measures about 320 feet x 520 feet. A number
of objectors spoke, both for themselves and for others, the essence of their
objections being that they do not object to the operation of the present grocery
store but would object to other possible uses that would be permitted in Zone
C-1. After considerable discussion it was moved by Mr. Stubblefield, seconded
by Mr. Yoe, and unanimously voted to defer action on the petition until the
regular December meeting at which time both the proponents and opponents of the
issue were asked to supply further information, particularly and to the specific
personal reaction to the petition of area residents living closest to the area.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned,
