LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENT
E -Z MART STORES, INC.
HIGHWAY 62 WEST
District and R-2,
1. Clayton Powell (City Street Superintendent): Stated he was pleased with
the beautification of Highway 62 West.
Stated that since this was in the State Highway Department's jurisdiction,
that he had few comments. The sidewalks look fine. The Developer shall
check with the State Highway Department about where to run drainage.
Phillips Avenue is shown on the vicinity map. Clayton clarified
that Phillips Avenue is a private street where it intersects Highway 62 West,
and will not be maintained by the City Street Department until such time
as it is constructed to City Standards.
2. Bill Boudrey (City Fire Department Representative): Asked what the developer
proposes for construction of the underground gas tanks, since the City
Sanitation vehicles will be traveling over them.
Mr. Young stated that the normal construction for underground tanks
is 6" of concrete with wire mesh over the gas tanks. He stated this construction
bears the weight of 10,000 gallons of gas plus the weight of the gas truck,
and felt it would bear the weight of the sanitation vehicles.
Boudrey stated that if the surface over the gas tanks ever breaks up,
their location will have to be changed immediately.
There will be no parking permitted with 10 ft. of the entrance of the
store. (This is straight ahead of the entrance.)
Boudrey said that where the exit is shown in the rear of the storage
area; that area will be kept clear for exiting purposes from the store to
the exit door itself. A panic bar will be installed so that persons can
exit without the .use of a key.

5. Kenneth Wagner (Arkansas Western Gas Company): Stated there is an existing
gas meter at the corner of the lot. He asked if a larger service would be
desired. Young stated that standard service will be all that will be
required with this development. It will consist of a store and gas service
but no car wash operation.
Young asked if pvc pipe could be used. Wagner stated that would be fine.
Wagner stated that a tracer wire should be installed, Young replied that
is standardprocedure in the construction of E -Z Mart Stores.
Wagner and Young discussed the location of the meter.
Wagner requested the following easements:
1. Dedicate a 10 ft. utility easement along the East side of the property.
2. Dedicate a 20 ft. utility easement along the South property line.
6. Dick Shaw (Ma Bell): Stated that easements as requested by Kenneth Wagner
would be fine. Stated that easements will have to be filed and recorded
as separate instruments.
Shaw stated that the requested easement on the South side of the property
should be investigated. He said he believes the City has an easement outside
the highway right of way. If so, the developer will have to dedicate the
requested 20 ft. easement outside that easement or negotiate with the City
to have their easement, if it exists, made into a standard utility
easement.
Contact the phone company when service is desired.
7. Wally Brt (City Sanitation Superintendent): Submitted his comments to
the City Planning Office prior to the meeting.
He requested someone from the Fire Department investigate construction
of the underground gas tanks.
Contact Wally Brt on construction of the pad on which the Developer
wishes his sanitation container to sit. The pad does not appear to be
adequate (7 ft. x 7 ft.) a 15 ft. wide by 12 ft. deep pad is standard.
The Sanitation vehicles will need 25 ft. clearances between overhangs
of canopies and roof overhangs.for maneuverability.
Wally Brt stated he would work with this developer as development progresses.
