The Fayetteville Plat Review Committee met at 3:30 P.M., Wednesday,
September 29, 1971, in the Directors Room, City Administration Building,
Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Present: Larry Wood, Paul Mattke, Harold Lieberenz, Clayton Powell.
Utility Representatives Present: Herbert Holcomb, David Tucker, Clyde Terry.
Developers & Engineers: Duane Nelson, Kenny Bell, Odell Taylor.
The first matter for consideration was a development plan submitted by
Duane Nelson for construction of a "Ramada Inn." A lengthy discussion DUANE NELSON
was held between the various representatives and Mr. Nelson. Some L.S.Development
comments were as follows:
1. Harold Lieberenz: Informed Mr. Nelson that the Subdivision
Regulations state land cannot be divided, etc, unless by a
plat approved by the Planning Commission. If Mr: Nelson proposed
to sell the property, it should be subdivided. At any rate the
plan must be reviewed by and approved by the Planning Commission
because it is larger than one acre.
Mr. Nelson said he still owns the property and has no intention of selling
it. He has signed a ground lease with Ramada Inn. He further stated he had
left room between this development and the funeral home for a 60 ft. street
to the West. He does not plan to build that street now.
2. Larry Wood: Does the existing access road tie in with the Sears
property?
Mr. Nelson said it does not and he does not want it to do so for a long time.
That is a private drive out of the parking lot for the funeral home. The
existing service road was discussed. Mr. Nelson said he had dedicated to
someone (the State ?) that road, the State built it and is to maintain it.
The portion from the existing entrance to Highway 71 South is dedicated;
but not the portion across the front of the funeral home. He said he was
told the road was built so the City could get off the highway and over to
a pump station.
3. Herbert Holcomb: Will come across the highway South of this site
and then go North to the site. Will eventually need a good easement
across the South line of all Mr. Nelson's property between Mr. Nelson
and Mr. Steele. If they can get this easement in the future and
at this time have an easement from Mr. Nelson's South property line
along the East property line as far North as the proposed service
station, everything else can be worked out. Mr. Nelson was
interested in the service being underground.
4. David Tucker: Telephone company must make decision on whether
they will continue to bring service on the West side of Highway
71 South from the Sears development. Transmission suffers under
this arrangement.
. There was a discussion concerning whether the utilities could be placed inf'�
the ROW for the existing service road.

5. Paul Mattke: Area for immediate development not in flood plane.
Sewer service will come in from the West. Mr. Mattke told
Mr. Nelson the most desirable route to bring water in: tie to
existing water line at the South side of Ozark Windows, cross
Highway 71, come down the front of Mr. Nelson's property to the
future 60 ft, street, turn West, enter the property there.
In the future go to the West until it is South of the Southwest
corner of Sears, then loop. A fire plug is necessary every 50
to 300 ft. Fire insurance premiums are increased if a commercial
building is more than 150 ft. from a fire plug. Mr. Mattke
suggested 3 fire plugs. (Mr. Mattke left the meeting.)
6. Larry Wood: (1) Requested tie with access road to Sears property;
think it is seriously needed. (2) Recommended tie 60 ft. street
to the West down now either by easement or dedication. (3) Property
only zoned commercial back to the middle of the swimming pool.
Approximately 250 ft, on the West half of the development zoned
A-1.
,7j. Clayton Powell: One drawing shows access road ROW 40 ft.; another
shows ROW 50 ft. Which is correct? No notations about drainage,
radii, or turn radii. Turn -ins should be a minimum of 30 ft. radius.
Streets themselves should be 30 ft. wide with curb and gutter;
sidewalks are desirable, but not required. Turn radius off access
road into parking lot should be 30 ft.
8. Harold Lieberenz: Questioned whether future units (80) would be
motel or rental? Mr. Nelson said they would be motel. Told
Mr. Nelson building permit cannot be issued even if Planning
Commission approves plan before zoning is corrected on West
portion of property. A permit might could be issued on the
"commercial" building only before then.
Requested copy of recording information showing book and page
where recorded to show it was recorded prior to June 29, 1970.
Sign extremely large and maybe higher than ordinance will permit.
Told Mr. Nelson what regulations are for signs.
State Board of Health approval necessary on swimming pool and
cafe before permit can be issued. Promised to advise Conley Napier.
Mr. Nelson said his contract said if they were unable to erect a competing
sign, it could void the whole project. He also said he could be penalized
for each day he delayed construction.
In summary, Mr. Nelson was told (1) Initiate rezoning petition to cover
300 ft. more commercial property (this would protect parking area for future
units as well). (2) Process Large Scale Development through the Planning
Commission October 5. (3) Get book and page and when property recorded.
(4) Easement down East side for utilities.
The next matter discussed was a Large Scale Development Plan submitted by
Kenny Bell for property on Highway 62 West. Mr. Bell and Odell Taylor, KENNY BELL
Attorney, were present. The property to the East is owned by Mr. Medley. L.S.Development
is
Comments were as follows:
9-29-71 -3- 73
1. Paul Mattke: Believe water line is on the South side of the
Highway. There is no sewer service available.
• 2. Utility Companies: All utilities agreed it would be better to
bring service down behind the buildings, across the middle of
the Bell property. Mr. Bell was to check with Mr. Medley to
see if the lines could also be brought through the middle of his
property; if not, he promised an easement down the East side of
his property and another across the middle from East to West.
3. Harold Lieberenz: Questioned Mr. Bell as to his plans for the
balance of his property. Mr. Bell said he hopes to build one
building at a time, rent or lease them, and phase out of the
salvage business completely. He asked about moving the proposed
building as close to the East property line as possible.
Mr.. Lieberenz told Mr. Bell that in order to sell these buildings
it would be necessary for him to subdivide the property. If he
did not sell, the Planning Commission must review under a Large
Scale Development Plan. If he plans more buildings, he should
submit at least two next time instead of one at a time.
Mr. Lieberenz warned Mr. Bell not to order a sign without first
checking with him.
He promised to check the Building Code, etc. to see how far from
the East property line the building must be.
The next matter discussed was a Large Scale Development Plan submitted by
the American Legion, Shelton -Tucker Post # 27, for a concession stand at
• the American Legion Ballpark. Comments were as follows: AMERICAN LEGION
BALLPARK
1. Paul Mattke: Sewer service available in Shenandoah Mobile Home
Park. They would have to pay the cost of bringing the sewer line
in. Water line somewhere on the property, but it would be easier
to get water service from the line at the Mobile Home Park,
2. David Tucker: Underground telephone line running from Southwest
corner of property directly to electrical pole by stand. They
cannot build over that. Check, think building will need to be
relocated enough to clear that line.
It was noted that a letter had been received from Mrs. Clay Yoe stating her
intentions regarding a future street down the West side°of Dr. Whiteside's
property. It was also noted that Mr. Jacks (Ernest Jacks) had suggested DR. WHITESIDE
dedication of a 25 ft. easement for future street to tie down the location
of the street and that he thoughtMrS Yoe would be willing to do the same.
The meeting was adjourned at 5:50 P.M.
