DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE

To: Planning Commission
From: City Engineer
Date: September 19, 1989
Subject: Fayetteville -Farmington
Growth Area/City Limit Boundary
Proposed Changes
Several months ago the City of Farmington was
annex large area located north and west of it's
Limits. That precipitated some discussion between
Farmington as to the location of the Fayetteville's
Farmington's Growth Area and the relationship of
annexation to those lines.
proposing to
present City
the City and
Growth Area,
the proposed
In the Staff's research of the City's Growth Area it was found
that the Growth Area was established prior to 1970 and was revised
somewhat in 1974 when it was decided to extend water into the
growth area. It has been amended by the City Board from time to
time since then mainly in response to requests for water service.
As far as I have been able to find, there was no agreement between
Fayetteville and Farmington at the time which established the
Growth Area Boundary. Apparently the Growth Area for Fayetteville
was established unilaterally.
Around 1980 the City of Farmington had a Growth Area drawn up
and it was submitted to the Fayetteville Planning Commission. There
were several meetings on the subject with final approval delayed
until Farmington could establish ordinances and regulations which
would adequately control growth and development within their
proposed Growth Area. It was noted that when that was done,
Fayetteville would have to modify their Growth Area to accommodate
Farmington. I have included minutes of those meetings for your
review.
The matter has not been brought to the Planning Commission
since then, nor has it been to the City Board of Directors.

I have attached a Plat which shows the Fayetteville/Farmington
area and the lines that have been tentatively agreed upon between
the two Cities. As can be seen on the Plat, the existing Growth
Area Boundary (the Fayetteville version) pretty much lines up with
the Farmington City Limits on their north and east sides. The
compromise line divides the area lying north of Highway 62 West and
south of Highway 16 West between the two Cities. On the southeast
side of Farmington the City of Fayettville is giving up some
additional area to Farmington.
It is the recommendation of the Staff that the Planning
Commission approve and pass on to the Board of Director the
division of Growth Areas as presented.

eg Anderson seconded the motion. The motion was approved with the following
vo recorded: .'Ayes" Hunnicutt, Crocker, Newhouse, Jacks, Anderson Redfern;
"Nays" Cullers. (6-1-0) Mr. Cullers stated that he was opposed to taking any
action at this time because he thought the Commission should wait until Mr. Mitchell
has more exact plan\ what he plans to do.
Martin Redfern and Windell Cullers reported that they DRIVEWAY STANDARDS
had studied the driveway standards and had consulted Committee Report
with Claud Prewitt. Mr. Redfern said that Mr. Prewitt was
not in total agreement with the Commm t`ee's recommendation, but had said he "could
live with it." The recommendation was that all single family residences be
required to have driveways constructed of a "durable and dustless" material, but
to allow a builder or owner to petition for a variance under unusual circumstances
such as an extraordinarily large lot.
Following a discuss44 period, Don Hunnicutt moved that nomchanges be made in
the present ord fiances on driveways. Peg Anderson secondedihe,potion.
Elizabeth Crocker stated that she feels the present ordinances do need to be
clarified<

Jefks, Anderson, Cullers voting "Aye"; Crocker voting "Nay"; and Redfern abstaining.
Chairman Jacks reported that he had met with the FARMINGTON PLANNING AREA
Chairman of the Planning Commission of Farmington.
He said they were proposing to adopt a Planning Area
Boundary for Farmington which would overlap Fayetteville's.
If they do, Fayetteville must consider vacating part of their Planning Area. Mr.
Jacks reported that Farmington is supposed to submit some material and a map
O to Fayetteville for consideration.

around those of the Church so that no conflict would=occur.
Windell Cullers moved that theof-f-'site parking proposal be approved and Don

The next item of business was the proposed CITY OF FARMINGTON PLANNING AREA
amendment to the Planning Area for the City of
Farmington. The two "additions" shown on the drawing
are presently in the designated Planning Area for the City of Fayetteville; and, if
approved, Fayetteville must decide whether to hold a public hearing amending its
Planning Area.
Chairman Jacks said that he had met with Mr. Burkett, Chairman of the Farmington
Planning Commission. Mr. Jacks said that he understood that the State Law provides
for each City to exercise its extra territorial jurisdiction to an equidistant point,
between cities, which Fayetteville was:;beyond. Farmington now wanted to claim some
of that property, but would remain at least equidistant. Mr. Jacks said that Farmington
wanted to give Fayetteville back some of the land to the North of Hwy. 16 West where
Wedington Woods is. Bobbie Jones said that at this time that land around Wedington
Woods was not in Fayetteville's Planning Area. Mr. Jacks said that Farmington was
planning on omitting it from their Planning Area. Bobbie Jones asked if this land,
which Farmington wants to take out of Fayetteville's Planning Area is in the Fayetteville
Water Service Area. Mr. Jacks replied that it was.
Mort Gitelman asked if the projected growth area was designed to coincide with the
Water Service Area. Bobbie Jones stated she understood it was.
At this time Frank Blew arrived.
Mort Gitelman said that if this does not effect Fayetteville's Water Service
Plan that he did not find anything wrong with giving the land back to Farmington.
Mr. Gitelman said that when Fayetteville retreated from the five mile Planning Area
Russ Purdy had equated the Planning Growth Area with Fayetteville's projected Water
Service Area. He wondered what Fayetteville's Water Service Area is in regard to
going West.
Frank Blew said that presently Fayetteville's Water System goes along the West
side of Double Springs Road and that it stops there about one and one-half miles South
of Hwy. 16 West. Fayetteville's growth area is about 520 ft. West of the centerline
of Double Springs Road.
Ernest Jacks asked Frank Blew if Fayetteville's Water District was in the area that
Farmington wanted back and Frank Blew replied that it was
Frank Blew said that his office had been asked to assist the Farmington Planning
Commission in preparing Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Regulations. He said the
Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission was assisting greatly in these regards
Morton Gitelman said that he would like to get a recommendation from the Regional
Planning Commission. Mr. Gitelman said that he would not like to see Fayetteville
relinquish their jurisdiction until Farmington is about to adopt a regulation so that it
would not go unregulated for a period of time. Frank Blew said that Farmington's
regulations were already in existence, and that they were the Washington County Planning
Commission Regulations.
Larry Wood interjected at this point that he was not convinced about the Farmington
Regulations, he felt that there were some problems with those regulations in terms of the
law. Frank Blew agreed. Larry Wood stated that the existing Farmington Planning
Area Boundary that is filed was prepared without a Planning Commission. He stated that

the Subdivision Regulations that were on file in Farmington were prepared without a
Master Street Plan. Larry Wood said that he thought that there were some basic
procedural questions that could be very easily challenged.
Frank Blew said that the reason for bringing this proposal in front of the
Fayetteville Planning Commission at this time was so that they could consider it. After
the Planning Commission had considered it they would proceed. Mr. Blew stated that
there would be a Public Hearing by the City Council of Farmington May 12, 1980, at
which time the County Master Road Plan would be presented.
Morton Gitelman moved that the Planning Commission of Fayetteville schedule a
Public Hearing for the purpose of formulating a recommendation to the City Board and
to have at the Public Hearing a recommendation from NWARPC as to the merits of the
transfer of Planning Area jurisdiction and the timing. Windell Cullers seconded. It
was passed unanimously
The next item of business was the request HUNTINGDON SUBDIVISION
to change the location of a portion of sidewalk in RELOCATION OF SIDEWALK
Huntingdon Subdivision, a Planned Unit Development, OAK BAILEY ROAD
on Citek., Bailey Road between Warwick $ Katherine Streets
from the West side of the right-of-way to the East side,
submitte'dN!:Iy Milby Pickell, Northwood Corporation. Keith Newhouse said that Helen
Edmiston had discussed this matter with him before she left the Subdivision Committee
meeting. What was proposed was to swap an area of sidewalk from one side of the street
to the other because of problems with terrain. There was no one present to oppose
the request.
Keith Newhouse made a motion to approve the request, Don Hunnicutt seconded,
it was unanimous.
The next item of business was a request
for information concerning an\existing tower and
radio antennas located on property at 608 S. Crest Di
Ernest Jacks said that he had a report from Harold Lieberenz, Inspection
Superintendent, to Bobbie Jones. Ernest Jacks asked Mr. Benton, the gentlemen
requesting information, if he had a copy offthe report. From the Report Mr. Jacks
gathered that there had never been a permit issued for the tower on Crest Drive. Mr.
Jacks asked how the Commission could find\out if the Tower was commercial or not.
At this time Mr. Ish Benton addaessed'Fthe Commission. Mr. Benton read Mr.
Lieberenz's report. Mr. Benton said that hekkhad a few comments to add to the information
contained in Mr. Lieberenz's deport. He saidthat there was a building located at
the bottom of this particular antenna somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 to 12 ft.
square on a concrete base/ Mr. Benton said that one of the antennas was an 8 bay
antenna which is not ordinarily used for non-commercial activities. Mr. Benton
said he would estimatf the output of this antenna to be in the range of 1000 to 5000
watts. Mr. Benton/said that there were also two heavy duty telephone cables going
into the building. Mr. Benton said that there was a 2202V91t power line going into
the building,/and, also, a telephone line. Mr. Benton saidthat he did not perceive
this to b non-commercial activity. Mr. Benton stated tha\there was another antenna
on another corner of the lot. -
Je'w. Eoff, the property owner, now addressed the Commissigqn. Mr. Eoff
that he bought this property about 17 years ago, that it wa\a 200 x 300 ft.
t. Mr. Eoff stated that there was an existing antenna on the lot at the time he
purchased the property and he wanted the antenna off of the property. Mr. Lieberenz
