LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR VILLAGE APARTMENTS
JOHN C. BURCKART - S OF APPLEBY, NORTH OF DRAKE ST
The first item of consideration was the Large Scale Development Plan for Village
Apartments submitted by John C. Burckart and represented by Harry Gray of
Northwest Engineers. Property located south of Appleby Road and north of Drake
Street and zoned R-2, Medium Density Residential.
This item went through the Planning Commission on September -12y i988 -but -has-been
revised so it is going through again.
HARRY GRAY - REPRESENTATIVE FOR DEVELOPER
Stated that they have eliminated some garages and made some other changes from
the previous layout.
L.O. FERGUSON - WARNER CABLE
Asked when they planned to start construction. Mr. Gray stated that they want
August occupancy. Ferguson stated that they have cable available out there.
TOM MCELROY - SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE
Stated that he would be coming from the South across Drake Street.

RICK EVANS - ARKANSAS WESTERN GAS
Stated that they can come in the same way the telephone company comes in. They
have some settings out by Appleby Road which they will have to move. Will work
with them. No other problems.
LARRY WINKLER - SWEPCO
Stated that they would like to come down the west side off of Appleby Road in an
easement. Then down between buildings 8 & 9 and follow the easement. To get
between buildings 5 & 10, they could run with the sewer line or come back out on
the street and follow the water line like the telephone company. They talked
about having an off-site easement along the east side before and that is still
what he would like. The only part he is not real sure about is between buildings
3 & 11 and 5 & 10. If there is enough room, he will parellel sewer and then back
down to the water line. He will also need an easement to be able to get their
transformers as close as possible to the end of the buildings.
HICKEY JACKSON - FIRE CHIEF
Stated that they will need one additional hydrant in here•an& he suggested to put
it between buildings 7 & 8 which will require making the two-inch domestic loop a
six-inch. The ordinance says on apartment complexes, the Fire Chief has the
authority to say where they need to be. They had 4 hydrants planned with the
first plat but with this revised plat they will need 3 hydrants.
PERRY FRANKLIN - TRAFFIC SUPERINTENDENT
Stated that this layout will deter some of the traffic that will cut through. He
recommended that they watch the sight distance with no plantings or anything
higher than 30" within 25' of these intersections.
DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER
This development will go back to the Planning Commission because of the increased
density of the development. The number of units will remain the same but the
layout is tighter. The same questions as far as traffic will come up at the
Planning Commission as did before so he asked Perry Franklin to be prepared for
some inquiries.
This stretch of sewer line that goes up into the development runs awfully close
to some buildings and runs under the volleyball court so they would have a real
problem with maintaining that. Therefore, if they want to make part of that line
private it would suit them fine. In this case, the City can't afford to commit
themselves to maintain it because of the proximity to the buildings, etc.
Stated that they might go ahead and show all of the easement where the 16" water

main is on a new easement as a dedicated utility easement along the east side.
Will also need easements on the rest of the water lines and sewer lines that are
going to be public through this.
Need to get with Don Osburn of the Meter Division and get the locations of the
water meters set up.
L.O. FERGUSON - WARNER CABLE
Stated that they will prewire at
electrician. Will need 2" schedule
under on the north end and go under
under the two driveways down the
southwest corner. A "right of entry"
to go in there.
$8 per outlet or they can have their
40 PVC under the parking area. Will come
the parking area along the west side and
west side and under the driveway at the
agreement will have to be signed for them
ELAINE CATTANEO - CITY PLANNING SECRETARY
The Subdivision Committee meeting has been canceled because of another
conflicting meeting so this will go straight to the Planning Commission on March
13 at 5:00 p.m. You will need to notify the adjoining property owners again.
LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR BRAUN'S ICE CREAM
BRAUN'S ICE CREAM, INC. - SW CORNER OF HWY 62 W & HWY 71 BYPASS
The second item was a Large Scale Development Plan for Braum's Ice Cream
submitted by Braum's Ice Cream, Inc. and represented by Bob Morgan of Crafton,
Tull & Associates. Property located at southwest corner of Highway 62 West and
Highway 71 Bypass and zoned C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial.
Bob Morgan stated that they had relocated the sign to come into conformance with
the ordinance since he brought in this plat. He advised that Braum's has a
contract to buy the lot that the building sets on and they have entered into a
contract to lease that lot to the East which has frontage on Highway 71 frontage
road. The surveyors are having a little trouble getting the legal description
together for that triangular piece.
PERRY FRANKLIN - TRAFFIC SUPERINTENDENT
He commented that there can't be any plantings or anything over 30" high within
25' of the intersection so as not to cause any traffic vision problems. He
advised that there are some underground traffic signal cable pipes at the
northeast corner where that pull box is but unless they are planning to do some
major earthwork there, it won't be a problem.

LARRY WINKLER - SWEPCO
He noted that he wants to point out one correction on the plat. They show
overhead electric splitting the triangular piece of property in the middle but
actually it follows the street. He asked if they intend to have a pad -mounted
transformer? Mr. Morgan answered, yes. Winkler stated that if the load is not
sufficient to justify a pad -mounted transformer they would rather set an overhead
pole and go with a pedestal arrangement. Before they make a determination on
overhead or underground, he needs to know how much load they plan to have. He
advised that he might need an easement if the pole line across the south side is
on this property. He noted that they need an easement across that northeast
corner where their overhead line will be.
RICK EVANS - ARKANSAS WESTERN GAS
He stated that they have a line on the south side of Highway 62 and there is no
problem with where the meter is shown on the plat. They will need to know what
the total load is going to be as far as BTU's.
TOM MCELROY - SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE
He advised that they have a telephone cable
which is not shown on the plat. If there
need a 15' easement down that line. Also,
go to the northeast corner of the property,

the underground telephone is shown to
but there is so much stuff on that
northwest corner.
He asked if they anticipate having cable t.v. here? Mr. Morgan answered, no.
Ferguson advised that they have a buried line out there although he is not sure
of the location of it. Call them to locate it before they do any digging out
there.
DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER
He stated that water and sewer are out there on both sides of this property. Is
the existing mobile home going to be moved off of the property? Mr. Morgan
stated that they hadn't decided but he would think they would. Bunn asked if the
screen fence shown is existing? Mr. Morgan answered, no, it is proposed. Bunn
advised that there is screening required since this abuts an R-1 zone. Is there
a drainage easement on the existing drainage shown? Mr. Morgan answered, no,
there is not an easement recorded on it. Bunn stated that he assumes then that
is privately maintained drainage as that point but he will find out. If it is
publicly maintained, there may be drainage easement in there. If so, the
proposed building is probably on it. He'll check on it.

He noted that they need to show the easements for the utilities across this
property needs to be shown on the plat. Any new easements need to be granted on
a separate document and not just shown on the plat. He stated that they need to
talk to the Sign People to make sure their sign is properly located if they
haven't already. He added that the meter location looks o.k.
Bunn advised that this will go straight to the Planning Commission meeting on
March 13th at 5 p.m. because the Subdivision Committee meeting has been canceled.
They will need to submit revised plats by Monday, March 6th. He advised that
they need to notify the adjoining property owners and submit proof to the
Planning Office.
