Gary Carnahan was present to represent.
1. Clayton Powell (City Street Superintendent): Stated this plan looks good.
• He felt that the setback for the South entrance was adequate and recommended
the Planning Commission waive the safety zone requirement for the curb cut
from 12-1/2 ft. to 10 ft. so that the desired radius can be installed.
Gary Carnahan mentioned the developer of the site plans to do extensive
fill work to raise the elevation of the site. The developer would like to
bring drainage towards the street.
Powell stated in that case, the drainage shall be directed into existing
storm drainage, if storm drainage does not exist, the developer will
install pipe to direct drainage through the curb into the curb and gutter
system. Drainage shall not be exited from the site out the driveway.
Carnahan stated the developer has a tentative plan to raise the floor
level of the structure to 1207 ft.
•
2. Don Bunn (City Engineer): Water and sewer are available to the site. No
problem with the lot split.
Main extension fees will apply to service to this tract. If the gas
company contributed to the laying of the water and sewer in this area, that
may be credited to this cost. He suggested that Mr. Carnahan check and see if
the gas company contributed to the installation of the water and sewer mains.
Bobbie Jones asked if the 16" water line that was shown on the plat
in this areawas still in service. Don Bunn stated that water line had been
relocated and there is no longer service crossing this lot.
•
3. Wally Brt (City Sanitation Superintendent): Stated the location for
container service shown on the plan is fine, however, he said the developer
should make sure the compaction of the paving is adequate on areas to be
travelled by the sanitation trucks to support their weight.

4. Dick Shaw (MA BELL): Requested a 25 ft. utility easement outside the East
right-of-way line of Front Street. Developer will provide 2'.' pvc conduit
from the utility room to the Southwest corner of the property. In the requested
utility easement, the developer will place 4V conduit, this may consist of
pvc encased in concrete, or steel pipe which would not have to be encased,
from the North property line to the South property line, capped on both ends
and provided with a fish wire.
When the Developer is ready to bore under the Frontage Road, furnish
the phone company with the contractor's name. If contractor is approved
by phone company, phone service may be installed at that time under the road,
and MA BELL may absorb some of the cost, however, if the contractor is not
approved by the phone company the developer will absorb the cost for boring
under Front Street.
5. Ivan Faulkner (SWEPCO): Service is presently located at the right-of-way
line of Highway 71, West of this development. The developer will furnish
4" conduit from that line to the requested easement on the West side of
the property under Front Street.
Depending on where the utility room is located, a transformer pad will
be located as close to that point as possible. From the transformer pad,
the developer will run conduit from the pad to the Southwest corner of the
property.
Conduit will also have to be laid in the easement running North/South
along the West property line outside the Front Street right-of-way.
Faulkner stated a pull box will have to be installed, he stated he would
work with the developer on the location of the pull box and furnish him with
specifications for its construction.
Service will be installed underground as requested by the developer.
Faulkner stated that in order to get service in, a little bit more
easement may be required on the South line. He stated it looks as though there
may be a few feet that will be questionable as to whether or not they will
be covered by easement, a survey will insure that service is covered by easement.
SWEPCO will not absorb the cost of boring under FrontStreet. The cost of
cable length run over 250 ft. will be absorbed by the Developer.
6. L. 0. Ferguson (Warner Cable Company): Stated he would like conduit placed
underneathFront Street, in the North/South easement for the entire length
of the property, and from the utility room to the Southwest corner of the
property. Conduit should consist of schedule 40, pvc, 2". This
is to insure cable service to any future owner of the site and to the future
development North and South of this site.
Service will be run to the property overhead at Warner Cable's expense,
where it dips underground on this property to the building cost will be
absorbed by the Developer.
7. Ken Wagner (Arkansas Western Gas Company): Stated service is available,
he said he would flag the line where it crosses Highway 71 and work with
the developer on how to get service to the building.

8. Harold E. Lieberenz (Flood Plain Development Administrator): Stated the persons
performing the fill work need a Flood Plain Development permit.
Bobbie Jones stated the Southwest corner of the building barely misses
being in the 100 year flood plain.
Carnahan stated the floor level of the structure will be above the minimum
base elevation.
9. Bobbie Jones (City Planning Administrator):
A. Approval for a lot split in regard to this site will have to be obtained
from the Planning Commission.
B. A waiver of the 12-1/2 ft. safety zone setback for the South drive
where the curb is cut will have to be obtained from the Planning Commission
as the radius on this drive will start 10 ft. from the property line.
C. This is part of a subdivision platted by the Gas Company. At the time
it was approved, it was the developer's responsibility to install sidewalks.
Street lights were also required at that time, however, there was no
spacing requirement. Both sidewalks and street lights are required,
this should be negotiated between the owner of the property and the
developer as to who installs what. Ms. Jones stated she will suggest
that installation of sidewalks be a condition:.of approval of the lot
split to the Planning Commission.
D. Parking provided on the site looks sufficient, 75 spaces are required
with immediate construction. 94 spaces will be required if future
construction is completed.
Handicapped parking spaces are sufficient in size and number as
shown on the plan. The developer may also install 20% of the total
parking spaces as compact spaces with a size of 7-1/2 ft. by 15 ft.
and marked "for compact cars only" if he so desires.
E. If revisions are received in the Office of City Planning by March 1, 1982
this Large Scale Development may be reviewed by the Subdivision
Committee March 5, 1982 at 1:30 P.M. and the Planning Commission March
8, 1982 at. 5:00 P.M.
