M., Thursday, September 16, 1976, in the Board of Directors Room, City Administration Building, Fayetteville, Arkansas. • CITY REPRESENTATIVES PRESENT: Paul Mattke (Arrived late --9:45 A. M.), Tom Halk, Larry Wood, Robin Northrop, Bobbie Jones UTILITY REPRESENTATIVES PRESENT: James Crownover, Dick Shaw, Frank O'Donnell, Clyde Terry. DEVELOPERS AND/OR ENGINEERS PRESENT: Jim Lindsey. The first item for discussion was the Final Plat of Hyland Park, Phase 3, Block 6. Mr. Jim Lindsey was present to represent. He said that the sewer line along Rock Cliff Road was installed to serve Phase 2, Block 5, Hyland Park. Comments were as follows: HYLAND PARK, PHASE 3, BLOCK 6 Final Plat gez_c .;.a7) 1. Clayton Powell (Street Superintendent): Not present. Comments: He said that the grades on the streets exceed 15 percent, which means that the Planning Commission will have to waive the maximum grade The maximum grade is 15 percent for a maximum of 300 ft. Anything beyond 15 percent, with a maximum length of 300 ft., will have to be approved by the Planning Commission. There are three segments of the street that exceed 18 percent. The precedent has been set, in that the Planning Commission did waive 15 percent maximum grade on Brophy's East-West street, and it exceeded 20 percent in that case. Anything over 10 percent has to be concrete. Hyland Park Road terminates in a cul de sac It exceeds 1000 feet for this phase. Ultimately, he will tie back in with Rock Cliff Road, but now he has two cul de sacs that exceed 1000 feet, and that would have to have Planning Commission approval. The tie-in with Boston Mountain View, whether or not the Planning Commission will let him keep it a private emergency access or rebuild it as a public street, the Planning Commission needs to make that decision. The street under -drain structures will have to be enlarged. The Consulting Engineers are aware of that; they are revising the plans to indicate that. 2. James Crownover (Ozarks Electric Company): Wanted to know how deep the sewer line is. Mr. Lindsey said that it is 6 to 8 ft. deep. Mr. Lindsey said that, initially, the utility companies were talking about an easement on the lower side of the street, but he had thought it would be better on the upper side of the street. His Engineers, Crafton, Tull $ Associates said that it would be better on the lower side. That is why the easements were changed. Mr. Crownover wanted to know which way it drains. Mr. Lindsey said that it drains to the West. He was concerned about the utility companies needing a 25 ft. easement on the lower side. Mr. Crownover said that the utilities have to stay outside the street right-of- way. Mr. Lindsey said that Crafton, Tull, and Associates felt that 20 ft. was more than enough. Mr. Crownover said that he is asking for 25 ft. --without sewer. Oct I Plat Review -2- September 16, 1976 Mr. Lindsey said that the sewer is in the right-of-way; they designed the street so that the sewer maintains within the right-of-way, and it is all on the North side. Mr. Lindsey said that he believes that they will put in an 8 -inch water line, and it will be on the South side. Mr. Crownover told Mr. Lindsey that if he has an extra copy, he would make him a layout. 3. Frank O'Donnell (Arkansas Western Gas): Said that with of the street, he planned to run gas on the South side. Mr. Lindsey wanted to know if it was o.k. to put two (2) 20 each side of Rock Cliff Road. This was agreed upon by all sewer on the North side ft. easements; one on the utility companies. 4. Clyde Terry (Warner Cable): Said that he will need to cross the streets at the same place with Ozarks Electric. He agrees to the two (2) 20 ft. easements on the North and South sides. 5. Dick Shaw (Southwestern Bell): Wanted to know when they plan to start construction on the streets ---let them know so that they can get their pipes (crossings) in. He said that he will stay on the North side, he doesn't know where the road crossing will be yet. He agrees to the two (2) 20 ft. easements on the North and South sides. 6. Paul Mattke (City Engineer): Said that his comments are basically the same as before, except that there is one other thing: He said that a street stub, or a provision for a future street connection on the South, out of this property, is needed. He said that he thinks they have a good grade in one area, but they do need the tie to the South. Mr. Lindsey said that he has no problem making that tie in that direction. In response to Mr. Mattke's request to standardize the legends used in Fayetteville Plats, Mr. Lindsey said that their computer only draws those types of legends shown for monuments. Mr. Mattke said that he only requested that; it was not a requirement. Mr. Lindsey said that they designed the road so that the sewer line and North line of the road are within very close proximity. Mr. Lindsey said that they are going to put in the same number of feet of pedestrian pathways, as would be required in sidewalks, if they were only on half of the road. There is a pedestrian pathway between Lot 33 and Lot 32, which runs down the back of Lots 25-29, to a temporary turn around, all the way down the West side of the Subdivision from the North side of Lot 9, all the way down to Lot 2, and it follows the backs of Lots 1.and 2, back to the street. There is another pathway between Lots 5 .and 6. The footage and circumstance of putting pedestrian pathways on one side of the road, he feels, would give them more than enough footage. He said that the reasons for going with pedestrian pathways, is because of the terrain. The terrain is vicious; the pathways will be concrete, but sidewalks will be on the back of the lots. He also said that the Planning Commission and Board of Directors had approved this earlier. 7. Tom Halk (Community Appearance): No continents. 8. Larry Wood (Planning Consultant): No comments. 9. Charles McWhorter (Fire Chief): Not present. No comments. 10. David McWethy (Administrative Assistant): Not present. 11. Perry Franklin (Traffic Superintendent): Not present. • • Plat Review -3- September 16, 1976 12. Floyd Hornaday (SWEPCO): Not present. 13. Wally Brt (Sanitation Superintendent): Not present. 14.

James Crownover (Ozarks Electric Company): Mr. Lindsey asked Mr. Crownover if Ozarks Electiic could remove. the overhead 1'ine=in.Block,3,'Phase I,.yet. Mr. Crownover said that they could re -tie part, but he would prefer to leave it in to give him a little more diversity until phase 3 goes in. He would like to keep a loop in there, but it will come out some day. He offered to meet Mr. Lindsey on the site and see if part of it could be removed. Mr. Lindsey said that they put a 10 ft. easement on the front of the lots for the purpose of making sure that they had adequate room to move the water line connections. They changed the size of these lots because the:upper area will be nicer than lower level, and they want to increase the, size of the lots to build bigger houses. 11. Dick Shaw (Southwestern Bell Telephone):, Repeated.their previous comments about their pedestals no longer being at the side lot lines and if they must be relocated, Mr. Lindsey would have to pay the cost of that. Mr. Lindsey said that he realized this. 12. Clyde Terry (Warner Cable): Concurred with Mr. Shaw's statement. 13. Frank O'Donnell (Arkansas Western Gas): Concurred with Mr. Shaw's statement. 3-0 Plat Review -4- September 16, 1976 14. Bobbie Jones (Planning Administrator). Said that these are entirely different lot numbers. They lost Lots 5 through 11. She said that part of the street is not built for new Lot 17. She said that they have a 15 ft. pedestrian pathway and easement on the Replat of Block 3, that runs to the Southeast corner of Lot 2, but they -don't have it labeled along Lot 1,,on either plat. She still needs a $6.00 fee on the Replat of Block 3. The meeting was adjourned at 10:00 A. M.
