MINUTES OF A PLAT REVIEW COMMIT]. MEETING
A meeting of the Fayetteville Plat Review Committee was held April 25, 1974 at 9:00 A.M.
in the Directors Room, City Administration Building, Fayetteville, Arkansas.
UTILITY REPRESENTATIVES: Clyde Terry, Tommy Fincher, Kenneth Wagner, Stuart Thomas.
• DEVELOPERS AND/OR ENGINEERS: Dr. Ernest Stanberry, Jr., Herb Christner.
OTHERS PRESENT: Paul Mattke, Clayton Powell, Iris Dees, Bobbie Jones.
The only item for discussion was the Erstan Subdivision outside
the City. Dr. Stanberry and his engineer, Herb Christner were
present. Comments were as follows:
ERSTAN SUBDIVISION
Outside the City
Preliminary Plat
1. Paul Mattke: (Water and Sewer Superintendent) City water and sewer is available
within a reasonable distance. We plan to provide public water and sewer. Mr. Mattke
commented that he didn't think the developer planned to cut his property up any more.
Paul Mattke said they are going to need some easements off the tract of land that
Dr. Stanberry is holding. He suggested a separate document for easements outside the
subdivision. He also asked the engineer to use standard easement sizes and check
street names so that they don't conflict with existing street names that are practically
the same.
2. Larry Wood: (Planning Consultant - telephoned comments) He suggested the cul-de-sacs
be pulled back and shortened to save on paving. Herb Christner thought it was logical
to shorten cul-de-sacs. Bobbie Jones said the street frontage is measured at the
setback line on the cul-de-sacs. Stuart Thomas with Ozark Electric said it would
be better on the street light spaces this way.
3. Stuart Thomas - (Ozark Electric Rep.) We plan to go underground. We need an easement
between Lots 9 & 10 in Block.4 15 ft. wide and if anyone else goes in with us it
should be 20 ft. - centered on the lot lines; the easement shown between Lots 2 & 3,
Block 3, is shown as only 10 ft., but we prefer it be 15 ft.; in Block 2 on the lot
line between 6 and 7 we need a street light easement 10 ft. wide; we don't require the
easement between Lots 8 & 9, Block 2 that was put in for our use. In Block 1 we need
a 20 ft. easement the complete length of the east property line north to south. Also,
we need 10 ft. street light easements between Lots 4 & 5,Block 1 and Lots 7 & 8 of
Block 1. We need a minimum easement of 15 ft. for the perimeter but if everyone is in
it it needs to be 20 ft. In Block 5 we need a 10 ft. easement between Lots 5 & 6
for street lighting only. We need the easement across the south property line widened
to 20 ft. We do not need the easement between Lots 4 & 5, Block 5. We plan to come
across the front of Lot 3 in Block 5:and we will need an easement there. The easement
across the north of Blocks 2,3,4 should be widened out to 20 ft. We recommend a
42 -inch deep trench and we have to have 3 ft. of coverage.
4. Tommy Fincher: (S.W. Bell Telephone Rep.) We need those perimeter easements 20 ft.
since we are all going to be in there. I can see no other problems with easements.
Dr. Stanberry said he thought he gave the telephone company easements along that road
a couple of years ago. Mr. Fincher said he would check on that. Mr. Christner said
the pedestals can be left there.
5. Clyde Terry: ( Warner TV Cable Rep.) With the easements on the perimeter, I don't
see any problems for TV cable. He discussed how service would enter the subdivision.
6. Kenneth Wagner: (Ark. Western Gas Co. Rep.) We do have gas available on the east side
of Joe Fred Starr Road. We will have to work out the details for the final plat. We
need the 20 ft. easement on the perimeter.

7. Clayton Powell* He read the first two paragraphs of Resolution 6-66 approved May 1966
which read as follows:
RESOLUTION N0. 6-66
Paragraph
'h resolution expressing the intention of the Board of Directors of the City of
Fayetteville, Arkansas, to enforce the subdivision regulations of the City of
Fayetteville, Arkansas, Within the City's Planning Area Jurisdiction outside the
corporate limits of the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas."
Paragraph 2
"WHEREAS, The City of Fayetteville, Arkansas, by virtue of Ark. Stats. Ann.
Section 19-2827 (1965 Supp.) is authorized through its Planning Commission to
establish the planning area jurisdiction of the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas,
including an area extending five (5) miles beyond the corporate limits of the City,."
He also referred to Ordinance 1979 approved on February 5, 1974 amending Ordinance
1750. He stated that ordinance sets up the definition for Urban as -located within,.
the Corporate City Limits and the definition for Suburban as - located outside the
Corporate City Limits. Section 3, "IMPROVEMENTS",of this ordinance reads as follows
in the first paragraph.
"Before final plat approval may be granted by the Planning Commission, the
subdivider shall have installed or shall have made provision to install, either at
his expense or in accordance with the existing policy of the City, the following
improvements, all of which must have prior approval by the Planning Commission.
Urban and Suburban both have the following required improvements:
"Reinforced concrete monuments 4"x4"x30" at quarter section corners and
subdivision corners."
"Metal stakes i" x30" at all lot corners, points of tangency, points of
curvature and angles in property lines or easements.
"Street grading and base according to City requirements."
"Street paving."
"Surface drainage."
"Culverts and Bridges'.':
"Individual service Lines,for water system."
"Sanitary Sewer System."
"Individual Service Lines,:for sewer system."
Urban 2nly has the required improvements below:
"Sidewalks."

"Private Water Supply System approved by the City Engineer."
The only difference between the Urban and Suburban requirements is that with Urban you are

Mr. Powell said the City limits is on the West perimeter of the existing County Road.
There are about three conflicting street names in this subdivision. We already have
names similar to Willow Street, Creek Terrace, and Lake Terrace. Similar names are
confusing to utility people, police, fire, and someone who needs to reach you right
away. Right-of-way width for streets depends on what Dr. Stanberry decides to do as
far as street construction. We need 50 ft. if streets are curbed and guttered. If
barrow ditches are used, we need 60 ft. of street right-of-way. Clayton Powell requested
30 ft. of right-of-way from the centerline of the existing Joe Fred Starr Road.
Mr. Powell said they are blocked on the west side of Joe Fred Starr Road. The Street
Department has copies of two deeds where SWEPCO has purchased an easement of 50 ft. on
the west side of Joe Fred Starr Road. Dr. Stanberry said he offered to give SWEPCO the
right-of-way if they would put it underground and they brought suit to get the ,property.
Mr. Powell said there is a low spot in Creek Road about the intersection of Creek Terrace.
He said that storm drainage would be needed at this point and barrow ditches must be
under -drained to carry drainage away. If the cul-de-sac streets are pulled back to the
South in Blocks 2 and 3 we need a drainage easement to the North property line of the
subdivision. Mr. Powell requested a copy of the street plans and profiles. He said
if the Planning Commission and Board of Directors approved what he had put in the
minutes he would be most happy to work with Dr. Stanberry. Mr. Powell and Dr. Stanberry
discussed the culvert the developer of Sequoyah Woods put under Joe Fred Starr Road.
Dr. Stanberry said the end of it comes over onto his property. Mr. Powell said a
cul-de-sac would be needed on the north and south end of Willow if they don't plan to
extend them. He said on just one4block street stubs he would request the end be
enclosed for the standard curb and gutter to prevent traffic from going out and turning
around
8. Bobbie Jones: You are 10 ft. off on your south dimension. The lots add up to 1268 and
you show 1278. Why not assign the area to the north of Block 1 a lot or block number?
Herb said there is a lot of uncertainty in the future. Bobbie said dimensions on this
parcel should be shown. She said she did break down Lot 6- Block 2 to show what part
was on the outside boundary. She said to add the word "limits" into the location of
property to read "City limits boundary". I need a copy of the plat with signatures of
adjoining property owners. We will try to help you on these name changes on the street.
Herb said according to the rules he would need covenants and he did not have them.
Bobbie Jones said this would be to restrict it to residential use only. She informed
them that they should show some building setback lines on this plat when it goes to the
Planning Commission. She told them to chnform to the minimum 25 ft. setback from street
right-of-way and cover rear yard and side setbacks in their covenant. She said a
building permit would not be issued for outside the City but they will have Plumbing
Permits She suggested they might want to covenant the type of structures that can be
built and the Planning Office would like a copy of the covenants. She asked if they
had been to the County Judge on this at all. Herb said he wanted to incorporate these
changes and then go to the Judge. Bobbie Jones asked Clayton Powell if he was asking
for right-of-way along Joe Fred Starr Road on this plat and if he intended for his
request to cover the property. Clayton Powell said it would be convenient to dedicate
the entire length at this time, if they;are-constructed to gravel street standards.
Bobbie asked what the frontage of the property you are retaining. Dr. Stanberry said
he was retaining about 800 ft. and Herb said 839.36 ft. Mr. Christner thought the
request for 30 ft. from the centerline of Joe Fred Starr Road was excessive.
Dr. Stanberry asked how they planned to get it along Broccard's property to the North.
Clayton Powell said if it comes into the City it would be by condemnation of if
Mr. Broccard decides to subdivide he will "get the same treatment" as Dr. Stanberry is
getting now. Mr. Christner said there is dill some question about the future use of the
parcel at the north end of Block 1. It may be used for townhouses, divided into lots, or
omitted entirely from the final plat.
9. Larry Wood: (Additional comments) He requested a preliminary plat on all of
Dr. Stanberry's property. Dr. Stanberry said 20 acres is what he is retaining. Mr
Wood asked for a 25 ft. dedication from the centerline of Joe Fred Starr. Road. I17

Larry Wood asked where Willow Road was going at the north end. Mr. Chriatner said it
would depend on what's done. If it dead'ends;there will be a cul-de-sac there.
The meeting adjourned at 10:25 P.M.
