Members Present: Chairman Roy Clinton, Marvin Murphy, Helen Edmiston, Ernest Jacks, Al Hughes, Donald Nickell, Christine Childress, John Maguire. Members Absent: Morton Gitelman. Others Present: David McWethy, Bobbie Jones, Jack Wallace, Dayton Stratton, Larry Wood, Iris Dees, Dean May, Mayor Russell Purdy, Marion Orton, Harry Gray, Neal Albright, Edna Baker, Katherine Stubblefield. Chairman Roy Clinton called the meeting to order. Minutes of the following meetings were approved as mailed: September 25, MINUTES 1973, October 9, 1973, October 23, 1973. Chairman Roy Clinton opened the public hearing on Rezoning Petition R-73-34, O.K. Holland, for property located at 3240 Finger Road, from A-1, Agricultural District, to R-1, Low Density Residential District. Larry Wood presented the Planning Report. He recommended a denial on the change from A-1 to R-1 based on the fact that there are not utilities to this area and without the utilities to serve urban density, he wouldn't recommend a change to R-1 at this time. There was no one present to represent the petition. Chairman Clinton asked the Planning Administrator, Bobbie Jones, if she knew why the rezoning was requested. Bobbie Jones said as Mr. Wood stated the property contains two dwellings and Mr. Holland had bought it in two separate pieces, one of them an L shaped piece, and he sold it in two separate pieces in not quite the same way he bought it and ran afoul of our subdivision regulations. I couldn't give a waiver without 200 feet of lot width and 2 acres for each parcel in the A-1 zone, but in the R-1 I could. The dwellings were there before he sold one of them and the person he sold it to is trying to remodel the house. A Building Permit cannot be issued until this is resolved. Mr. Dean May said the city water was put in out there last winter with a 24oline. Chairman Clinton asked Mr. Wood if the 24, line would affect his recommendation. He stated he thought at least a 6" line was necessary for urban development. Mr. Wood said 24" couldn't serve very many homes. Ernest Jacks asked Larry Wood if he thought the area had gone beyond the agricultural development with more houses there now. Mr. Wood said it is headed in that direction, but he thinks if they get their zoning ahead of the utilities they would see a lot of development on septic tanks that should be on sewer. I think we should hold up development until they have adequate water and sewer. John Maguire arrived at 4:10 P.M. Mr. & Mrs. Dean May opposed the rezoning. Mr. May said he wanted to maintain the agricultural nature of the zoning because most of the houses in this area have more than just a lot. Most have 5 to 8 acres and there are a number of houses going south on Highway 62 but most of the land behind it is agricultural and it hasn't grown that much. The public hearing was closed. Mr. Hughes said he didn't think a 2t" water line would be enough. Mr. Nickell said he was not interested in zoning beyond the sewer himself and was not in favor of any more septic tanks. Mr. Murphy said if there are houses there now being occupied, even a septic tank would be better than they have now. It would deprive a man the use of this property unless we have a real good reason. Mr. Nickell said he gets disturbed with these owners selling the property with a conditional thing, if this was Mr. Holland himself wanting to put a bathroom in, but on a conditional use, I don't see it. Ernest Jacks asked Bobbie Jones whose property it was and she said that on July 11, 1973 he sold part of it to Jimmy and Norma Fitzgerald on contract. It is the Fitzgerald's who requested the Building Permit, but the petition was filed by Holland. He still owns it if it's on contract. I gave each of them a petition and it is my understanding that Mr. Holland gave it to his attorney and his attorney filled it out and I assume his attorney told him that since it was a contract basis only he would have to sign it. I suggested that they both sign it, but I only got Mr. Holland's signature. Chairman Clinton asked if they have recourse through.the'Board of Adjustment? Bobbie Jones said they don't on subdivision regulations, they would have on O.K. HOLLAND 3240 Finger Road Rezoning Petition R73-34 J • • • Planning Commission November 13, 1973 Page 2 setbacks or lot width, the lot size area is the problem. The Planning Commission has acted on some that were below minimum lot requirement in other zones. Chairman Clinton said on the surface its a zoning request because of the fact that the lot size is too small. I agree with Mr. Murphy that we don't need to deprive individuals of the innocent use of adding a room. I think the other way is for a lot waiver to allow a building permit to the existing structure, no new structure. - Chairman Clinton suggested the petition be denied but instruct the Planning Administrator to issue a Building Permit on the basis of the waiver of lot size. Ernest Jacks moved the petition be denied but instruct the Planning Administrator to issue a Building Permit on the )asis of the waiver of lot size. Helen Edmiston seconded the motion. It was unanimously approved. Chairman Clinton Opened the public hearing on Rezoning Petition R73-35, D.J. Land, for property located at 275 Huntsville, Road from R-2, Medium Density Residential District, to C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial District. Larry Wood presented the Planning Report. He recommended denial of the C-2 request because he felt the area should be restored and converted back into a medium density residential section holding to the grouping of commercial activity at major intersections. Mr. Land was present to represent the petition and he said he bought his little store from J.C. Campbell, and he never looked into the zoning when he bought it and since he had been there it had grown and grown. He said all he wanted to do was remodel the building and make it bigger because his business is about four_timeb-what it was since he started and Combs Grocery has closed and he has their business. He said he had no parking area and it was very hazardous when people try to get off the road and he wanted to make a parking lot out of his front yard and thought it would be an asset to the community and give him a chance to make a living. Mr. Hughes asked him if his store wasn't the closest neighborhood store to the housing project near him. Mr. Land estimated that he getsbusiness from about 40% of the people living in the housing project. Chairman Clinton asked if there was anyone in the audience opposing the request to rezone this area from R-2 to C-2.and there was not. Mr. Murphy said he was sure anything done to it would be an improvement. Chairman Clintrn said he wasn't aware that ' Combs Grocery had closed. He said he thought Mr. Land's grocery fit the classification of neighborhood commercial and it is a pretty dense area on all sides and a lot of homes are in that area. Chairman Clinton said he could see some merit for requesting the rezoning and also to improve the parking facilities. He asked if the gas pump was still there and Mr. Land said yes, he's still selling gas. Mr. Nickell asked Mr. Land how far south his property went and Mr. Land replied that the store was setting about 10 feet off the line on the south side. Chairman Clinton said he felt there was a lot of walking traffic in that area and Mr. Hughes said the store was just a short distance from the housing project. Christine Childress arrived at 4:30 P.M. Helen Edmiston moved that the Commission deny the petition as presented but the petition be amended to rezone it from R-2 to C-1. Mr. Jacks seconded the motion. Mr. Land asked if this would still enable him to remodel his grocery. Chairman Clinton replied that would give him the right to remodel because he is classified as a neighborhood grocery and it allows filling stations. Ernest Jacks said he could not have a liquor store and sell whiskey in C-1. Mrs. Orton asked if the Planning Commission had ever made a special zoning for these neighborhood groceries so that when they go out of business they don't become another type of business that wasn't intended when they rezoned. Chairman Clinton said they had thought about it before and said that it could really be involved because it would be like placing a covenant on the property and it makes it difficult for individuals to get loans on the property and this sort of thing. Mrs. Orton said she meant instead of having C-1 maybe we could have G-1 for neighborhood groceries so if one of these went out of business we wouldn't have all of these over town that have been rezoned being used in other ways. Chairman Clinton said it would just increase the number of zones. Mr. Jacks said it is really a matter of how detailed can you break it down and where you stop. Chairman Clinton said he thought most planners liked fewer zones and it makes it easier for everyone to understand and administer. Larry Wood said usually you don't see this in smaller cities but in some big ones you may get into 4 or 5 REZONING PETITION R73-35 D.J. Land 275 Huntsville Road Planning Commission November 13, 1973 Page 3 commercial zones. Larry Wood said he basically felt if you have a neighborhood commercial zone it will allow a variety of neighborhood type uses and the pitfall you get into is that once you start with these very specialized zones there is not much you can stop. Before you know it you are causing more rezoning activity than you really needed to cause. I think planners can look at it that if it is suitable for a neighbor- hood type grocery, it's suitable for any of the neighborhood type commercial activities. Mr. Nickell said he would like to know how this is going to affect the Major Street Plan the Commission approved. Chairman Clinton said they could have a problem in getting a permit. Huntsville has been down graded to a minor residential arterial, so there probably won't be too much conflict. Bobbie Jones said they might have an increased setback of 5 feet. Mr. Nickell asked Bobbie if Mr.'Land is able to meet the requirements under C-1 if it is rezoned. Bobbie Jones said hewould have a setback of 53 feet from Huntsville Road right-of-way and she didn't know what the present setback was. He wanted to square off the front of his building and the application shows there was a 12 foot off set. Mayor Russell Purdy said he thought a parking facility would be quite desirable. because Willow Street to the west is totally blind, you just hopethe people coming east on Willow Street will see you and won't slam into you. You cannot see a thing when a big truck is parked there. The motion made previously by Mrs. Edmiston to deny the petition as presented and amend the petition to rezone from R-2 to 0-1 was voted on and passed unanimously. The Commission took up the Large Scale Development Plan for Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, Rolling Hills Drive and Old Missouri Road. GOOD SHEPHERD LUTHERAN CHURCH Rolling Hills Drive and Old Mo. Rd. LSD Mr. Jacks gave a report from the Subdivision Committee and said there were no problems. Mr. Jacks moved the plan be approved and Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion. No one was present to represent or oppose the plan. The motion passed unanimously. The Commission discussed the proposed Final Plat of the BROPHY ADDITION Brophy Addition, Phase II, for property on Karyn Avenue Karen Ave. & Jimmie Lane extended and Jimmie Lane extended, submitted by Final Plat Ralph Brophy. Mr. Jacks reported that the Subdivision Committee found there was one street 300 feet long in excess of a 20 foot grade and the street now called Westview was called Debra or Debbie. As far as they understood it was a matter for the Board of Directors and not the Planning Commission. There is an easement on the west side that needs to be corrected. Also, a contract is needed and sidewalks should be shown on the plat. Chairman Clinton said they need a building permit on one lot. Harry Gray was present to represent Mr. Brophy. Mr. Clinton asked him if the future street extension on the west side is part of Phase II on this plat? Mr. Gray said the part of Block 3 facing on the future street and the future street is not included in Phase II. He said Westview Street will be built from the west side of Karyn Avenue east up the hill and that's where the steep grade is. Chairman Clinton said he would have to take the steep grade matter up with the Board of Directors and Bobbie Jones said she thought the Planning Commission, due to the wording of the subdivision regulation, should either recommend for it or against it or express that they are not recommending either way. The ordinance says if the provisions are shown by the subdivider to cause undue hardship and if they apply to the proposed subdivision, the City Planning Commission may grant a variance to the subdivider. Chairman Clinton asked what the Street Department had to say about it and Ernest Jacks said "the ordinance lists a maximum grade of 15% with a 300 foot length, if built it should be closed in the winter time during bad weather". Mr. Gray said one dimension on an easement on the plat that is on file is wrong. The Commission asked about sidewalks and Mr. Gray said they would like to request that they be left out due to the nature of the terrain. Chairman Clinton said Mr. Gray could not get a Building Permit until he gets a signed contract. Chairman Clinton said the extension of Jimmie and Karyn should have sidewalks and it be shown on the plat before it goes to the Board of Directors. Mr. Jacks moved that they approve the Final Plat with the following stipulations: (1) the matter of the steep street be taken to the Board of Directors, (2) recommend i • Planning Commission November 13, 1973 Page 4 that it be accepted and the easement on the existing plat be corrected, (3) the side- walks be put in on one side of both Karyn and Jimmie, (4) Mr. Brophy enter into a contract with the City to insure improvements be installed. Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion. Mr. Nickell asked if they were leaving any sidewalks out and he was told just on the steep grade. Mrs. Orton said her feeling was that when it gets to the Board of Directors she would like to require sidewalks on the steep part from Westview to College She thought sidewalks were needed there because of pedestrians. Seven members voted for the motion and Mr. Nickell opposed it. The motion passed. The Commission had a request for permission to obtain a BROPHY ADDITION Building Permit in Brophy Addition, Phase II, before filing Building Permit of Final Plat. Final Plat Bobbie Jones said she did send out queries to each department including our Water and Sewerl.Department and to Mr. Grimes, office. She said at this time there was no reply from Clayton Powell or Paul Mattke but Mr. Grimes said he was not opposed to it if a bond is posted to guarantee all required improvements for that lot including street lights. The other utility companies have advised they do not oppose it. Ernest Jacks made a motion that they allow the Building Inspector's Office to issue a Building Permit for this one Lot 17 in Block 2 with stipulations set forth by Mr. Grimes. It was brought up that Mr. Brophy had tried to prepare a contract that he would accept rather than the usual City contract and Bobbie Jones transferred the call to the City- Attorney, ityAttorney, Jim McCord, who told Mr. Brophy that the contract she mailed him was the standard contract and -the terms of the contract are not specified in the subdivision regulations. Mr; McCord told him to prepare a contract that he would accept and that he would present it to the City Board and see if they found it acceptable. There was no further discussion. Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion to approve with stipulations. The motion passed unanimously. Next was the Preliminary Plat of the proposed Bogan- BOGAN-EASON-SWEETSER Eason-Sweetser Addition for property on the east side Old Mo. Road - east side of Old Missouri Road, submitted by A.P. Eason Jr., Preliminary Plat Jerry D. Sweetser, and Ellis Bogan. Mr. Jacks said the Subdivision Committee found three items for discussion: (1) to check the legal description and Neal Albright said it had been corrected, (2) Mr. Albright1s letter asking for approval of a derid-end street in excess of 1400 feet, (3) a matter of sidewalks not shown on drawings. Mr. Albright said the dead-end street would be temporary -- it could extend in the future. Mr. Jacks moved that the Preliminary Plat be approved subject to the legal description being in proper form and sidewalks being shown on the plat on one side of the street and approval of the dead end street -.in excess of 1400 feet, Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion. It mas approved unanimously. A request for a Conditional Use Request to use property at 306 Ella Street for a nursery school had been submitted by John Locke School. Edna Baker was present to represent the request. There was no one present to oppose this. Mrs. Baker said if everything is approved all the way around they will be buying this. Mrs. Edmiston moved they grant the request and Mr. Al Hughes seconded. The motion passed unanimously. A request for waiver of subdivision requirements (lot split) for property on Stubblefield Road had been submitted by Mrs. Katherine Stubblefield. Ernest Jacks reported for the Subdivision Committee that he had contacted the Water and Sewer Superintendent, Street Superintendent, and utility representatives. The Planning Office reported that they have asked for 10 feet of • JOHN LOCKE SCHOOL 306 Ella St. Conditional Use Request KATHERINE STUBBLEFIELD Stubblefield Road (Lot Split) • • .11 Planning Commission November 13, 1973 Page 5 additional right-of-way on Stubblefield Road and a 15 foot easement off the south of these lots and a 15 -foot easement off the west edge. Paul Mattke opposed the waiver because there was no sewer available. Chairman Clinton asked Mrs. Stubblefield if she understood this and she said she had discussed this with each of the light companies and Mr. Powell and all of those and she is willing to grant this because eventually they intend to widen Stubblefield Road and the man who wants the land lives at the end of the street and he wants some more property. I would have to extend an 8 -inch water line down, it just comes to his front yard. Chairman Clinton said he wanted to caution her that one split like this may or may not be acceptable at this time. He said that on any further splits he would say that she should subdivide this property. She should consider the aspect of subdividing this. Mr. Jacks moved that they approve the waiver subject to three stipulations. (1) 10 feet of additional right-of-way be provided for Stubblefield Road, (2) Mrs. Stubblefield give a 15 -foot easement on the south edge of the lot,(3) a 15 -foot easement be provided on the west end. Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion which was unanimously approved. A Large Scale Development Plan for property on 19th Street East of Highway 71-B had been submitted by Dayton Stratton and Link Luckett. Mr. Jacks reported for the Subdivision Committee and said they had asked for 5 feet of right-of-way on the north side of 19th Street and 30 feet of right-of-way on the west side of the property for future extension of College Avenue. Mr. Jacks said the Subdivision Committee recommends approval of the Large Scale Development Plan subject to the 5 -foot right-of-way on the north side of 19th Street, and 30 feet of right-of-way off the west side of the property on the east side of the section line. Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion. Chairman Clinton asked Mr. Stratton if he foresaw any problems in meeting those requirements and he said to consider it dedicated. The motion passed unanimously. A Large Scale Development Plan for property on Government Avenue FRED HANNA north of Highway 62 West (6th Street) had been submitted Government Ave. north by Fred Hanna. Highway 62 west - 6th Mr. Jacks said the Subdivision Committee saw no problems. LSD Mr. Jacks recommended approval of the plan and Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. The Commission held a discussion on the possibility DISCUSSION OF AMENDING of amending Zoning Ordinance 1747 to permit tandem ZONING ORDINANCE 1747 lot developments and to reduce minimal lot size Tandem Lot Development requirements. Mr. Jacks said by virtue of past Reduce minimum lot size. platting there have been some very deep lots. David McWethy asked what he meant by tandem lot development and Mr. Jacks said one behind the other or a landlocked lot. Mr. Jacks said they have been talking about this for years and the City interprets the zoning ordinance to mean that every lot must have 70 feet of street frontage or enough for public street frbntage.-I know.of lots where it's reasonable to have a private drive to go back into these plots. Mr. Jacks said what he was suggesting was that they simply hold a public hearing on this provision. Ism suggesting along with my written provision that no structure be built on a lot less than 70 feet in width and that minimum lot area should not count anything less than 70 feet width. This means we're aiming at getting access into what is a standard size lot which is simply not on or facing the street and I think it is a necessity in mountainous terrain. Everything else is still maintained, you're simply allowing an area to be developed. Mr. Jacks moved that this be given to the City Attornento put into what he considers the proper form and that a public hearing be called to consider amending the zoning ordinance. Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion which was approved unanimously. Mr. A1_Hughes asked about considering smaller lots. Mr. Maguire MINIMUM LOT SIZE said in R-1 he would be in favor of reducing the lot frontage STRATTON & LUCKETT 19th St. E. of Hwy. 71-B LSD of Street Discussion • • • Planning Commission November 13, 1973 Page 6 lower than 70 feet and Mrs. Edmiston agreed. Mr. Maguire said that being a developer he thought the reason was economics. With inflation and the cost of single family dwellings getting more prohibitive all the time, he thought this would permit people to live in homes instead of apartments although he had nothing against apartments. He said he thought lots in the City were getting economicallytoo high for some types of development.and that it should be opened up. Mr. Nickell said he was in agreement with tandem lots, but he was proud that Fayetteville was not congested like some big cities are. Mrs. Edmiston thought they were putting home ownership out of a lot of peoples hands. Mr. Jacks asked Helen Edmistion.- - L•- if this problem was in R-1 type of properties. Mrs. Edmiston said yes, that's why we have so little low-cost housing. Mrs. Edmiston said she was thinking of the person who makes 7 or 8,000 dollars a year and has just so much money and getting a loan is based on his income. He can just afford so much house and if he spends so much money on land then he won't have as much to spend on his house. I just want to put it within more families' means. Larry Wood asked why they didn't see more single family construction in R-2 where there is now a 60 foot lot frontage. Are they holding for apartments? Chairman Clinton answered yes, or price per acre. Mr. Maguire moved that they hold a public hearing to change from 70 to 50 feet in R-1 and 60 to 50 feet in R-2 for a single family dwelling and remove the minimum lot requirements on duplexes in R-1, or in general to consider all lot requirements in R-1 and R-2. Mr. Hughes seconded the motion. The motion passed 7 to 1 with Mr. Nickell opposed. HIGHWAY 62 LAND USE PLAN Additional recommendations on the Highway 62 Land Use Plan were requested by the Board of Directors. Mrs. Orton said that previously the Board had wanted the Commission to make a study of the service roads all the way to the City limits and the Board was surprised that it stopped at this point and asked the Commission to finish up. Mr. Jacks moved that the Commission ask the consultant to continue the study to the west City limits along Highway 62. Mrs. Edmiston seconded the motion which passed unanimously. OTHER BUSINESS SETBACKS. FROM ATTFYS Bobbie Jones said she had sent the members a letter from Mr. Mattke expressing his concern about alleys with utility water and sewer lines in them in the older parts of town. The State Board of Health would probably require relocation of them in the street right-of-way if one of the lines has to be replaced. He was concerned about a Board of Adjustment appeal for a variance from a centerline of an alley. He does expect some old water lines to fail in the future. When they fail the property owner will have to bear the cost for taking their service lines to the new water lines or sewer lines. School District Maps furnished by the City Manager's Office were passed out to each of the Planning Commission members present for their future reference. The meeting was adjourned at 5:45 P.M. • U 41 RESOLUTION PC 32 - 73 WHEREAS, a public hearing was held by the City Planning Commission, Tuesday, November 13, 1973, fifteen (15) days after a sign was erected on the property and after a notice waa published in the Northwest Arkansas Times, a newspaper of general circulation; and WHEREAS, after the public hearing, the Planning Commission voted to make a recommendation to the Board of Directors on the petition of Mr. 0.
