Members present: Bill Dalton, Allan Gilbert, Ernest Jacks, Wade Fincher and Byron Boyd. Members absent: Clark McClinton, Henry Shreve, James Mashburn and Bryan Walker. Others present: J. A. Vizzier, Planning Consultant; City Manager Gerald Fox; and seven persons interested in items to be discussed by the Planning Commission. The meeting was called to order by Vice Chairman Bill Dalton. The Vice Chairman reported that the two public hearings would be held then the regular business would be considered. The first public hearing was on the petition of Wayne Bayley for the rezoning from R -1B Single Family Residential District and R-2 Two Family Residential District to 0-1 Open Land District of lots 1 through 10 in Block 9 of Parker's Revised Plat of Valley View Addition. The Vice Chairman declared the hearing on said petition open for discussion and asked that the proponents be heard first. • WALTER NIBLOCK, attorney for Wayne Bayley, said the petitioner had requested the rezoning from R -1B and R-2 to 0-1 so that he could use and develop the property for a mobile home park. Mr. Niblock briefly told the Planning Commission of the surrounding land uses and explained what Mr. Bayley proposed for lot area, streets, lot widths, etc., for the mobile home park. Open spaces would be provided for play areas, wash areas and similar conveniences for the tenants. The Vice Chairman asked the opponents to speak. There were no persons present who voiced any objection to the petitioner's request. The Planning Commission members had a few comments. They discussed the City's regulations on mobile home parks. The Vice Chairman declared the purpose of the public hearing having been accomplished the hearing on the petition of Wayne Bayley for rezoning was closed. Next the petition of Wanda and Clay Yoe was given consideration. The Vice Chairman declared the hearing open for discussion on the petition of Clay and Wanda Yoe for rezoning from R -1A Single Family Residential District to 0-1 Open Land District of property described as: The NW,i-, of the IRA14 of Section 12, and the SW� of the 5-1 of Section 1, and all that part of the NWI of the Sfr7� of Section 1, lying South of Highway No. 45 East, all in Township 16 North, Range 30 West, BASS TRUMBq attorney for petitioners, told the Planning Commission the property being considered was annexed to the City of Fayetteville during July 1963 and when annexed it was automatically zoned R -1A Single Family Residential District. • The land presently is open and undeveloped. It is not the type of land generally used for residential purposes. Mr. Trumbo said Mr. Yoe had requested the change as he feels in the future it • would be easier for example to change the zoning of property from 0-1 Open Land to a commercial classification than from R-lA Single Family Residential to a commercial classification. The southern portion may be used for residential purposes but the northern portion might be more desirable for commercial use. There is Highway 45 to the north and Highway 265 (Buckner -Braden Road) to the west. Mr. Trumbo said it was the petitioner's opinion that if later the property were to be developed for commercial use the present request for a zoning change would be an intermediate step for future zoning and use. The Vice Chairman asked the opponents to speak. RICHARD WALDEN said he did not know that he actually was opposed to the petition. He said he owned property to the south which is being developed for residential purposes. Mr. Walden did point out he had no objection if property to the north were used for commercial purposes, but he was concerned about the use of property immediately north of his property. Mr. Trumbo, attorney for petitioner, reported he had talked to Mr. Yoe before the hearing. Mr. Yoe felt that the southern 40 acre tract could remain R-lA Single Family Residential District as zoned. Mr. Walden said if the southern 40 acre tract remained R-lA Single Family Residential, he would have no objections. There being no other persons to be heard, the Vice Chairman declared the purpose • of the public hearing on the petition of Clay and Wanda Yoe for rezoning having been accomplished, the hearing was closed. The minutes of May 3, 1966, and June 1, 1966, were approved as written and mailed to the Planning Commission members. Discussion was had on the area and bulk regulations for cemeteries and mortuaries in the 0-1 Open Land District and in the A-1 Annexed Territory District. The planning consultant quickly summarized the action which had been taken on amend- ing the zoning ordinance to permit cemeteries and mortuaries within certain zon- ing districts. After discussion of the suggested area and bulk regulations for mortuaries in the 0-1 Open Land District and suggested minimum size of tracts for cemeteries, the Planning Commission was prepared to make a recommendation.
