PASSED AND APPROVED THIS Lay of (:2ddajgs, 1963. APPROVED:T) J. -F: Harold Lieberenz, City Building Inspector, gave the Subdivision Committee's report as the committee members he had previously met with, Suzanne Lighton and Henry Shreve, were not present. Leonard Gabbard's lot division problem was discussed. Mr. Lieberenz presented drawings of the area involved. The City Inspector briefly explained the history of the problem. Jug Wheeler has sold property south of Edna Street lying between Wheeler Avenue and Austin Drive to Winston S. Lindsay. Mr. Lindsay in turn sold a 150 x 150 foot lot to Leonard Gabbard. Mr. Harold Lieberenz said that he can, under the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance No. 1239, issue a permit when the first lot is sold off a tract of land if the lot faces an existing opened and improved street and if, in his opinion, there would be no interference with any future streets or subdivisions. In this case, Mr. Lieberenz said he was of the opinion that a street was needed. Mr. Leonard Gabbard has agreed to give a triangular piece of his lot for street purposes. Mr. Lieberenz pointed out to the Planning Commission that there would be a bottleneck in any future street as there is only 30 feet between Mr. Gabbard's lot and lot 9 to the south. It was the recommendation of the Subdivision Committee that Leonard Gabbard's street ease- ment be accepted and the street easement which Winston S. Lindsay would be willing to give off lot 4 be accepted; and before any additional lots are sold, Mr. Lindsay proceed with the subdivision requirements. After a lengthy discussion, Bryan Walker moved that Leonard Gabbard give a street easement so that a future street west of his lot could be 40 feet wide. Bill Dalton seconded the motion which passed unanimously. The City Building Inspector explained the subdivision problem of Virginia L. McPherson who owns real estate south of Zion Road. Mrs. McPherson had requested permission to build upon a lot which fronts a street that has not been dedicated to the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas. It was the recommendation of the Subdivision Committee that no permits be issued until Mrs. McPherson subdivide her property. The Planning Commission discussed the problem but no action was taken. The Planning Commission as well as the Subdivision Committee made no recommendation on Roy Hillian's lot division problem of real estate south of Skelton Street until further information was submitted. The sketch of W. G. Shipley's proposed subdivision was presented to the Planning Commises sion. Mr. Lieberenz reported that the Subdivision Committee recommended that Mr. Shipley proceed with his preliminary plat as the street layout was satisfactory. Hugh Stubble- field moved that the Planning Commission accept the recommendation of the Subdivision • Committee. The motion was seconded by Bill Dalton and passed unanimously. Clark McClinton moved that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council that 19: Lynn L. Smith's final subdivision plat of Arrowhead Acres be accepted. Hugh Stubble- field seconded the motion which carried unanimously. Harold Lieberenz presented to the Planning Commission a petition of Thomas Comley and J. W. Eoff for the closing of a north -south 20 -foot street in Evin's Farm Addition. Mr. Lieberenz said that the REA had agreed to move their power lines and there are no other utility lines within the street. A motion was made by Clark McClinton, seconded by Hugh Stubblefield and passed unanimously that a resolution be adopted recommending to the City Council that the street be closed.
