MINUTES OF A PLAT REVIEW COMMITTEE MEETING
A meeting of the Plat Review Committee was held at 9:00 A.M. on Thursday,
August 11, 1983 at the Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce.
UTILITY REPRESENTATIVES PRESENT:
CITY STAFF PRESENT:
Kenneth Wagner, James Crownover,
Don Osburn, Suzanne Kennedy,
Bill Boudrey, Don Bunn, Bobbie Jones
OTHERS PRESENT: Harry Gray
The only item to be reviewed at this FINAL PLAT
meeting was final plat of the Fox Run FOX RUN ADDITION
Addition, located south of Highway 45 East, OUTSIDE CITY LIMITS
outside the City Limits, and owned by Fox
Run, Incorporated. Harry Gray was present to represent Northwest Engineers, Inc.
(1) Bill Boudrey (City Fire Department):
Boudrey stated if a contract for City fire protection is desired, this must be
worked out. Boudrey and Gray discussed the alternative fire protection available.
(2) County Planning Board:
Bobbie Jones reported that she had a copy of Minutes from the Washington County
Planning Board meeting of September 11, 1978, at which Fox Run Addition was
discussed. She said she had spoken with Bruce Kendall and Bud Allen from
Washington County today and learned that the County Judge and Road Superintendent
had met with the developer and his engineer on the site last week, that they also
told her today there was an understanding as to how the road would be built, that
the County would be following up on this.
(3) James Crownover (Ozarks Electric Cooperative):
Crownover said he remembered an agreement being made to install gas on the lower
side of the road and electric on the upper side, that 20 foot easements were to
have been dedicated on both sides of the road. Harry Gray said he will change
the thirty foot sewer easement shown west of Fox Trail to a 30 foot utility
easement and will add a 20 foot easement along the east side of Fox Trail
Crownover explained, because of the sloping, the gas was chosen to be on the
lower side and, because of the steepness, they decided they needed 20 feet so
they could dig. He said he thought the necessary crossings had been put in.
(4) Southwestern Bell Telephone Co.:
Bobbie Jones reported the telephone company representative was unable to attend
but promised to contact Northwest Engineers. She said her files show they asked
for a 25 foot utility easement in 1978 outside the 60 foot roadway. Harry Gray
noted this would be covered within the 30 foot sewer easement he will,be
designating a utility easement.

(5) Kenneth Wagner (Arkansas Western Gas Co.):
Wagner concurred with the statements made by Crownover, but said he recalled one
road crossing which he now thinks may have been washed out, and needs to be
replaced. He said he remembers there being a road crossing in every other lot.
He asked that the easement be cleared of trees, so that they can have better
access.
Wagner asked about access to the area labeled "future development" and Gray
explained Lots 9A and 21A would remain common area, that the road would be
extended through Lot 9A to the future development. He said the area labeled
"Common Area" would not be used for future development.
(6) Don Bunn (City Engineer):
Bunn asked if perc tests had been conducted and Harry Gray said that the tests
show they meet requirements, but turned out slow. Bunn explained to Bobbie
Jones that, although there is a sewer easement shown, there will be no sewer
located there. Bunn said, if off-site easements have not been recorded, this
must be done. He said water is already in, that it would be a long time before
there would be any sewer at the site. Bunn asked Gray to check into the existence
of as -built plans, and data on the perc tests. Bobbie Jones said there is a
letter in her file from the State Health Department giving preliminary approval
for septic tanks, but requiring a septic tank permit on each individual lot prior
to construction.
(7) Bobbie Jones (City Planning Administrator):
a. Add a signature block for the City Engineer to sign on sheet 1.
b. Either delete signature block for Building Inspector, or revise
it for County signature, on both sheets.
c. Off-site easements referred to by Don Bunn and off-site road
dedication must be referred to on the plat and a note added as to
how they are recorded. Copies must be submitted to the Planning
Office.
d. The water line which cuts across one corner of the property at the
north end should be shown on the plat.
e. A note must be added that the Planning Commission granted two waivers
on September 11, 1978: (1) for the length of a dead-end street, and
(2) for maximum grade on the street.
f. Concrete monuments should be installed and shown on the plat for each
corner of the subdivision. It was agreed that a re-monumentation
which was done on one corner by a State surveyor meets the
requirement for that corner, but should be noted on the plat.
