In the absence of Chairman Roy Clinton and Vice -Chairman Morton Gitelman,
and in accordance with the By-laws governing such circumstances, Ernest
Jacks served as Acting Chairman and called the meeting to order.
The first item on the agenda was the proposed revisions to Fayettevillets
Major Street Plan. The matter had been before the Commission since MAJOR STREET PLAN
May 14, 1973, when a public hearing was held on the recommendations ofProposed Revisions
the Fayetteville -Springdale Transportation Study. A revised map of the
Major Street Plan showing the proposed revisions had been prepared and
mailed to the Commissioners following the June 26, 1973 meeting.
Acting Chairman Jacks said that since the last meeting there had been
quite a reaction to one of the proposals acted on at that meeting. He invited
comments of the Commissioners of whether Razorback Road from Maple to Cleveland
and Cleveland from Razorback Road to Garland should be a major arterial or whether
it should follow Maple Street from Razorback Road to Garland Avenue, then continue
out Garland Avenue.
Al Hughes said he was personally opposed to continuing a major arterial street up
Razorback Road to Cleveland and over to Garland. He had had an experience the
day before trying to go up Razorback in a little shower. He called it ridiculous
to have a major arterial street on Razorback between Maple and Cleveland and said
he had been opposed to extending Sang Avenue South over the hill as a collector
for the same reason. If Razorback between Maple and Cleveland is to be left on
the Major Street Plan, he would propose to put Sang Avenue extended back on the
Plan.
Donald Nickell said he was not opposed to going over the hill as Fayetteville
would not have any streets if they did not goover the hill. He asked for
comments from the general public in view of the objections on file.
Acting Chairman Jacks asked if there was anything that had not already been given
in the form of a petition that should be heard. He said that he felt that ultimately
our streets will loop the University of Arkansas; however, he did not think this is
the time to do it.
Marie Ptak, 1338 West Cleveland, suggested using things the City has without
spending money. The By-pass cost an enormous amount of money and the traffic
should go there. People going into town should select their streets. Garland
Avenue and Maple Street were built on a rock base and were built to carry traffic.
Sylvia Swartz, 607 North Razorback Road, said she had been told the hill on
Razorback has about an 18° grade. It was her understanding that when the Arkansas
Highway Department was talking about Highway 71, they only wanted a 5% grade.
There is a 12 -inch water line practically in the middle of Razorback Road,
a 6 -inch sewer line in the middle and a gas line also in Razorback Road. If they
cut this back, they will have to remove all the utilities at the expense of the
Planning Commission

City. If they cut the grade down, they will have to cut about 25 trees. If
they widen it, they will be very close to the houses. Considering the utility
• lines, trees, and houses, she considered it impractical and suggested a study
be made before going ahead with this. Garland and Maple Streets have already been
constructed to support heavy traffic and it seems it would be squandering money
to try to rebuild Razorback instead of using the ones built for heavy traffic.
When they have icy weather the number of cars stuck an Razorback going both ways
is unbelieveable. It is also bad when it is wet. If the grade is changed on
Razorback, Cardwell would have to be changed also. Cars presently stack up
mornings and evenings, as much as 600 ft. Mrs. Swartz said she felt it would be
a very bad mistake to put the traffic on Razorback and Cleveland.
Al Hughes moved to change the proposal to put the major arterial on Razorback
to Maple Street, Maple to Garland, then North on Garland. Helen Edmiston seconded
the motion. Christine Childress expressed concern about what this action would
do to other approved areas and the grades on those streets. When the vote was
taken, the motion was approved unanimously.
Acting Chairman Jacks asked Larry Wood if minor arterial is the proposed classi-
fication for Cleveland Street from Garland Avenue to Gregg Avenue. Mr. Wood said
it is. Acting Chairman Jacks said he had checked the revised map and that all the
changes the Commission had requested had been reflected on this map. He asked that
before the Board of Directors acts on the map that all the streets that are
collectors or arterials on this map be identified by name. In the downtown area
particularly, this gets to be a problem with the Planning Office.
Donald Nickell requested that no action be taken on the revisions to the Major
Street Plan until all the Planning Commission members could be present to act
on it if they were going to continue in the same way they have in the last two
meetings
Al Hughes moved that the Planning Commission recommend to the Board of Directors
the approval of this Plan with the correction just made and with the request of
Mr. Jacks that streets be identified and including the statement, "Street improve-
ments resulting from the implementation of the Fayetteville Major Street Plan
where accomplished in existing built-up portions of residentially zoned areas will
take place on existing rights-of-way. However, in cases of new construction and
land use changes, building setbacks will be required to conform with the adopted
plan.“ Helen Edmiston seconded the motion. Jacks, Hughes, and Edmiston voted
"Aye"; Nickell and Childress voted "Nay"; Murphy abstained from voting. The
motion did not pass.
Al Hughes said he would notbe present again until the first meeting in September,
so if they waited until all the Commission members could be present, they could
not act on it until September.
City Manager Donald Grimes said that Fayetteville's plan is the only one that
remains in the Northwest Arkansas region that has not been adopted. The Highway
Department has been asking when it will be adopted. There are quite a few things
waiting on this to be adopted.
Donald Nickell said that if the Planning Commission is going to make decisions,
they can't continuously' change them when they get a little pressure. You will
continue to get pressure. We want to go in the best way. We can't continuously
give in to pressure.
Al Hughes said that 2 of the three members absent at this meeting had voted to
make the change in the designation of Razorback and Cleveland at the last meeting.
He again reminded the other members that he would not be back until September.
Mayor Russell Purdy said he would hate to see the Plan wait that long before it
is acted upon.
• Acting Chairman Jacks opened the public hearing on Rezoning Petition R73-26, PET. R73-26
Mack S. Young & Susan B. Young, to rezone property located on the east Mack S. Young
side of the University of Arkansas Farm and on the West side of Kelley Brothers
Planning Commission
7-10-73 -3-
Lumber Company and also on the North and West side of Coca Cola Bottling
Company, from R-2, Medium Density Residential District, & I-1, Heavy
Commercial & Light Industrial District, to C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial District.
Mr. Jacks informed those present that through an error it had been advertised
to rezone from C-2 and I-1. The City Attorney had been contacted and felt it
could be acted on however because the zoning classification sought was advertised
correctly. The I-1 is included in the petition because the creek is the dividing
line on the existing zoning and apparently cuts through some of this property
slightly.
Larry Wood presented the Planning Report. He recommended a zoning classification
which would have low traffic and low service demands. He said both R-2 and C-2
classifications are usually high traffic generators and high service users.
Al Hughes said there is a low water bridge across the creek and the access across
the track has not been used much in years for this reason.
Mrs. Young and Attorney Charles Davis were present to represent the petition.
He said the property is bordered on the North by an open road that extends from
the University Farm to the railroad. There was an attempt years back to close it
which failed. They have an access to Drake Street. There is also one that crosses
the tracks and the creek with a wet weather bridge. The Major Street Plan proposes
one on the South side of the property. A restaurant, steak -house type of business
is proposed. They opposed a zoning of commercial for the restaurant and some other
zoning for the rest of it. Mrs. Young also requested the same zoning for the entire
property, She said they had had to quit using the road across the North side of
the property because the pollution in the creek ate up their tires.
Marvin Murphy asked if the road mentioned across the South is existing or proposed
and whether it has right-of-way dedicated. It is proposed and no right-of-way
exists presently. Donald Nickell asked Mrs. Young if she felt that a road to
the South would be beneficial to this property. She said it would be beneficial
to the whole neighborhood and so would one across the North.
There was no one else present to speak in favor of the petition. There was no
opposition present.
Helen Edmiston asked where the restaurant is proposed to be located on the property.
It would be in the present homestead.
The public hearing was closed.
Marvin Murphy moved to approve Rezoning Petition R73-26 and rezone the property
C-2. Donald Nickell seconded the motion which was approved unanimously. PETITION R73-26
Acting Chairman Jacks opened the public hearing on Rezoning Petition PETITION R73-27
R73-27, Faye M. Cosgrove Smith, to rezone property located at 103 FAYE M. COSGROVE SMITH
Florene Avenue, from A-1, Agricultural District, to R-2, Medium Density 103 Florene
Residential District.
Larry Wood presented the Planning Report.
Acting Chairman Jacks if it is not true that you cannot get a multi -family
system for septic tanks. Helen Edmiston said she thought the State would approve
one if the system is designed right. Al Hughes asked where the area recently
rezoned by the Thomases and where the area the Board of Directors had sent back
to the Planning Commission for consideration on a petition of Calabria and Thomas
and represented by Bryce Davis was. Larry Wood showed him on the map. Marvin
Murphy asked where the sewer goes to at the present time. Mr. Wood said that
he thought Maple Manor has sewer by way of a line under the By-pass. They will
probably go the the North when sewer is put in up there because the present route
requires a lift station.
Mrs. Smith was present to represent the petition. She said the reason for the
request is so they can have a home barbershop which is permitted as a home
occupation in the R-2 zone. There was no opposition present. The closest house
is on the next lot.

Marie Ptak asked what the Commission planned to do to keep the nice view
on the By-pass.
Al Hughes moved to continue this and take a closer look at it. He wanted
to see the area Bryce Davis had represented on the R-1 rezoning petition
and how far it is from this property. He was concerned about traffic in
the area. Donald Nickell seconded the motion to continue the petition.
The motion was approved unanimously. Acting Chairman Jacks asked the Planning
Administrator to update the map and show the surrounding zoning and proposals
for the next meeting.
Acting Chairman Jacks opened the public hearing on Rezoning Petition PETITION R73-1
R73-1, Carl Duncan, to rezone property located on the North side of Carl Duncan
Highway 16 East and east of Wayne Hinkle's Mobile Home Park, from C-1, Highway 16 E.
Neighborhood Commercial District, to C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial District
Larry Wood presented the Planning Report.
Marvin Murphy asked what is permitted in C-2 that is not permitted in the C-1
District. Acting Chairman Jacks said there are a number of things, including
liquor stores. Donald Nickell asked if the Commission had not had a request for
this zoning from Wayne Hinkle on his property. Mr. Jacks said they did.
Attorney Walter Niblock represented the petition. He said they were not
requesting stripping of Highway 16, but that there are presently three non-
conforming uses on the property ---a residence, apartments, and a liquor store.
They want to obtain conformity for the liquor store. The petitioner would be
agreeable to cutting the request down in size to the immediate land around the
liquor store. They would like to be protected in case they ever need to rebuild
it. He said there is an antique store across the street.
There was no one present to oppose the petition.
Donald Nickell and Marvin Murphy asked questions and were told that this is a
non -conforming use which was there when it came into the City,
Donald Nickell moved, that in view of the fact that we have tried to hold the
line on Highway 16 East, that we treat this individual the same way we have treated
others and that we deny the request. The motion died for lack of a second.
There was no other motion. Acting Chairman Jacks asked the Planning Administrator
if this would automatically go to the Board of Directors as recommended for
approval if the Planning Commission did not take any action on it. Bobbie Jones
said that the ordinance provides that at the end of 45 days from the public hearing
it goes to the Board of Directors as though recommended for approval if no action
has been taken before that time.
The Commission looked again at the recommendations of the Board Street LAND USE PLAN
Committee and Board of Directors for revisions to Land Use Plan for Hwy 62 W.
Highway 62 West between Highway 71 By-pass and the City Limits.
The Board of Directors had approved the recommendations of the Planning
Commission but subsequently had requested the Commission look at certain
proposed revisions. This matter had been continued by the Commission. Mr.
Jacks said that the essential difference is that the Board's recommendations
calls for service roads ---frontage roads on commercial and backage roads on
residential. Larry Wood said they had also cut back on some of the commercial.
Al Hughes said he could not understand having frontage roads on some and backage
roads on others. City Director Marion Orton explained that it had been assumed
that commercial property would require a service road to the front and that the
residential property would prefer to have it to the rear. That would mean that
the front of the residences would face on the service road and their backs
would be to the commercial. That is why the areas were blocked off and why the
changes in the corner were proposed. Al Hughes said he could not see rotating
Planning Commission

the residences. People would like to have more privacy in their back yards.
City Manager Donald Grimes said that the idea is that by constructing high
fences along the back of this residential area, you screen it from the
highway sight and sound. This has worked very well in Tulsa. Mr. Hughes
asked if the property owner must bear the expense of the screening. Mr. Grimes
said he would assume they would if they want the privacy.
City Director Marion Orton said we are continually concerned about what lies
along a highway because we do not want it stripped commercially. Also, to keep
all that traffic from entering the highway. Mr. Hughes said that as long as you
have a highway like that with the service road along the back side of the properties
they would have to have access through someone else's property to get into it.
If the service road was along the front, they would have access to the service road.
You are saying you can't have any development out there because you cannot afford
to buy more property for a service road. The only way you can make ends meet is for
apartments. Mr. Grimes said that if the service road is put to the back, the cost
can be shared by both sides of the service road it will service. I£ it is to the
front, the cost would all be on one property. Mr. Wood said that if a developer
chose to develop where he was not tied to a service road in the residential areas,
you would have to allow him a curb cut until a service road is made available,
then sever that curb cut when the service road is made available. The developer
would have to understand that eventually the curb cut would be severed at the
time the curb cut was issued. Mr. Hughes asked Mr. Grimes if an agreement has
been worked out with the Arkansas Highway Department wherein the City can control
curb cuts on highways or can people still make application to the Highway Department
and get a curb cut every 40 ft? Mr. Grimes said that in a conversation he had
had with a Highway Department official he had been told that the fact that
people came in with a State curb cut permit did not mean that they could cut
a curb without a City curb cut permit. Mr. Hughes asked what depth would be
allowed for commercial property with a service road. He thought the depth had
been reduced so that you have to build a long, narrow building. Mr. Wood
suggested some consideration be given to reducing the setback from the service
road to less than 50 ft. because the service road is to serve this development.
Ernest Jacks said the whole thing revolves around whether we want to consider
a service road for Highway 62. If we don't, it can stand; if we do, we need
to ask Mr. Wood to make a study of depth. Donald Nickell said he had seen
service roads work in other states and they do a fine job of handling traffic.
Mr. Hughes said he was still concerned about depth. If we are going to have
commercial, we ought to encourage decent, desirable structures. He would hate
to limit them and put somebody in a bind so they would put something on there
that would ruin the rest of the area.
Helen Edmiston moved that the Commission ask Larry Wood to re-examine the depth
in view of having service roads and bring recommendations on it to the Commission.
Al Hughes seconded the motion which was approved unanimously.
Marvin Murphy said he was in sympathy with this motion, but was concerned about
delaying Mr. Cates. The others agreed with him.
A large scale development plan had been submitted by Gerald & Marie Cates for
property located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Highway
62 West and Old Farmington Road. Gerald Cates and Dayton Stratton GERALD & MARIE CATES
were present. Ernest Jacks asked if Mr. Cates is in a hurry or could Highway 62 W
he wait until the Commission resolves the question of service roads along L.S.Development
Highway 62. Mr. Stratton said that Mr. Cates has indicated he is willing
to build a 2 -lane access culvert on the West side of his property across the
creek. The culvert on Old Farmington Road is too narrow and the City is not
ready to replace it. Mr. Jacks said that if the Commission approves the large
scale development plan, part of this approval would require that if the City
Planning Commission -6-
7-10-73
puts anything there and he has to remove anything, he would bear the cost. He
would have to agree that if the City decides to have service roads there, he would
have to dedicate the strip for the service road and construct the service road
across his property when the City calls for it to be built
Al Hughes moved to approve this plan subject to the things discussed in the
Planning Commission meeting and the Plat Review Committee meeting and subject
to the Commission's subsequent action on Larry Wood's recommendations for a
service road. Marvin Murphy seconded the motion. Bobbie Jones said she felt
sure Harold Lieberenz, Inspection Superintendent, would require a letter from the
developer agreeing to these terms before he would release the building permit.
Ernest Jacks said the developer could furnish this letter. When the vote was
taken, the large scale development plan was approved unanimously.
Acting Chairman Jacks, in the capacity of Chairman of the Subdivision Committee,
reported to the Commission that the Subdivision Committee had voted to SIDEWALKS
change the requirements for sidewalks in that we would require them in
industrial, commercial, and institutional developments as well as residential.
The Committee saw the need for them in any kind of zoning. The Commission
would keep the power of waiver in order to control them. The person building
a house would be required to build sidewalks. The positions of sidewalks would
be shown on the plats submitted by the developers with the note that they.would
be constructed by the person obtaining the building permit. A bond could be posted
if they could not be built at that particular time. If the sidewalks had not been
built on a vacant lot within 5 years of the date the plat was Filed, the owner
of the lot at that time would be required to build the sidewalks. Mr. Jacks said
he has instructed the City Attorney to draft an ordinance on this matter and he
would like to know if the Commission agreed with the Subdivision Committee on the
matter of sidewalks. Helen Edmiston said the sidewalks would have to be built
to the City's minimum requirements. Al Hughes said the ordinance would not specify
whether the sidewalk would have to be against the curb or back of it. Mr. Jacks
said he had talked to Mr. Mayes at the Post Office. There have been problems
with sidewalks against the curb. Mr. Jacks thought the Commission ought to look
at the ordinance before setting a public hearing on it.
City Manager Donald Grimes had written a letter to the Chairman of the Planning
Commission requesting a study of the subdivision requirements regarding STREET LIGHTS
street lighting standards. Mr. Grimes said that in many of the subdivisions
the developer installs street lights. Where they are going underground, the
City tries to pay the cost of wood poles and the developer pays the difference
between wood and metal poles. If this is not done, Mr. Grimes' office receives
calls from the residents wanting street lights. Neighbors object to wood poles.
Sometimes the utility companies cannot get easements necessary to put up wood
poles. In most cases the developers want ornamental standards. Mr. Grimes
suggested that where they install underground utilities in a development, that
the developer pay the difference in cost between the wood pole and the ornamental
standard. Mr. Grimes requested the Commission call a public hearing to amend the
subdivision ordinance. Helen Edmiston moved to call a public hearing to amend
the subdivision ordinance and to instruct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance.
Al Hughes seconded the motion. Mr. Grimes told Donald Nickell that his office
has worked out the spacing and lumens with the two power comapnies. Marvin
Murphy told Mr. Grimes that there is such a thing as an ornamental wood standard.
When the vote was taken, the motion to call a public hearing was approved
unanimously.
The Preliminary Plat of Azalea Terrace was deferred until the next meeting.
Planning Commission -7-
7-10-73
Acting Chairman Jacks introduced the Final Plat of Bishop Addition, BISHOP ADDITION
Unit 1, a subdivision submitted by Wade Bishop for property located Final Plat; Unit 1
off Appleby Road. Wade Bishop and Mr. Grisham with Crafton, Tull &
Associates were present. Mr. Grisham said that all corrections had been
made as requested by the Plat Review Committee. Mr. Jacks reported that
it will be necessary for the Planning Commission to waive the length of
the cul de sac until such time as the future street along the South of the
Subdivision is opened.
Helen Edmiston moved to accept the Final Plat of Bishop Addition subject to
the requirements of the City discussed and to waive the minimum distance of a
dead-end street on the cul de sac until such time as the street across the
South is improved and opened. Marvin Murphy seconded the motion, which was
approved unanimously.
A street closing petition to vacate a portion of Waunetta Avenue had STREET CLOSING
been filed by Guthrie, Banks, Caudle, Smith and the St. Louis & San WAUNETTA AVE.
Francisco Railroad. Attorney Pete Estes was present to represent the Guthrie, Banks,
petition. He said he was actually representing Mr. Banks; the others names Caudle,Smith,
appear on the petition because the Abstractor's Certificate shows they are SLSF RR
property owners. He said that street is not there; it is on the side of a
bluff. The Commission had some questions of Mr. Estes about the owner
of various lots. Bobbie Jones read the comments of the various utility
companies and reported that Street Superintendent Clayton Powell had asked
the Commission to refer to the Major Street Plan in considering this petition.
Helen Edmiston moved to approve the petition subject to the request of the
electric and telephone companies for easements. Al Hughes seconded the motion
which was approved unanimously.
The Commission continued the study of the area bounded by Highway 71-B CATO SPRINGS AREA
on the East; Highway 16 By-pass on the North and Highway 71 By-pass on Study
the West and South. The previous discussion and presentation was reviewed.
It was noted that this had been continued at the request of Morton Gitelman
who wanted to look at the area again. Marvin Murphy said he had looked at that
area and the area would be suitable for about anything you want to put on it.
Mr. Murphy said he thought it would be very unwise to revert it back from
industrial. Donald Nickell agreed. He said he thought we should keep all the
industrial property we have. Not everyone wants to locate in the Industrial Park.
Helen Edmiston asked if Mr. Wood's is recommending a plan or is he recommending
that it be zoned. Mr. Wood said he recommended that if the Commission adopts this
that they go on and rezone the area. Acting Chairman Jacks asked that the Commission
wait until the next meeting so Morton Gitelman could be present since he had wanted
to look at the area again. The Commission was agreeable to this.
The Commission discussed again the proposed changes to the Major Street MAJOR STREET PLAN
Plan. Acting Chairman Jacks said that the two people who had felt strongly
about and voted in favor of the change made today at the last meeting were
two of the ones not present. He invited a motion to either approve the Plan
or to defer it until the next meeting. Al Hughes said someone is going to be
killed on Cleveland Street just West of Garland if something is not done. They
have talked to the Police and in some cases fines of as much as $75.00 have been
given.
After discussion of his reasons for wishing to postpone action on the Plan,
Donald Nickell made a motion to send the proposed revisions to the Major Street
Plan to the City Board of Directors with a recommendation for approval with the
correction to put the major arterial on Razorback to Maple Street, Maple to
Garlaind, then North on Garland, that the streets be identified on the map,
Planning Commission -8-

and that the following statement be included in its adoption: "Street
improvements resulting from the implementation of the Fayetteville Major
Street Plan where accomplished in existing built-up portions of residentially
zoned areas will take place on existing rights-of-way. However, in cases of
new construction and land use changes, building setbacks will be required to
conform with the adopted plan." Al Hughes seconded the motion which was
approved unanimously.
The meeting was adjourned at 6:50 P.M.
