by Harry Gray, of Northwest Engineers, on behalf of Sam Rogers for property
located on the west side of Salem Road, north of Wedington Drive and zoned R-2,
Medium Density Residential. The property contains 11.75 acres with 42 proposed
lots.
HARRY GRAY - OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE
Gray stated that they may rearrange the lots to make two additional lots. He
advised that all of the lots will be developed as single-family except possibly
lots 4, 5 & 6. He noted that lots 5 & 6 might have to be combined. He
advised that he hadn't shown sewer to lots 5, 30 or 31, so he will add that.
He noted that they will work out an access to the northeast corner of the
property for the utility companies.
L.O. FERGUSON - WARNER CABLE
Ferguson noted that they will need to have an access to this property. He
stated that they will have no problem serving this with the easements shown.
JIM CROWNOVER - OZARKS ELECTRIC
Crownover noted that all the utilities will have to cross Salem Road. The 20'
easement will need to be extended across the north side of lot 6, if that is
where they cross the road. He noted that they would need at least two street
crossings to get to the center block.
TOM MCELROY - SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE
McElroy stated that they will serve the property from the east. He advised that
they can bore Salem Road. The building setback along Salem Road needs to be
dedicated as an easement and he will need a crossing under the new street at some
point.

RICK EVANS - ARKANSAS WESTERN GAS
Evans stated that he will be serving from the east also. The easements
requested will be adequate. They will work with the developer on how to serve
the interior portion of the subdivision. They have two existing crossings under
the road.
DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER
Bunn advised that the following items need to be noted on the plat: 1) whether
or not the property is wooded; 2) that it will be developed as single-family,
if that is the intent; and 3) the easements requested. He added that the 20'
utility easement shown between lots 7 & 8 should be shown as utility and drainage
easement. He noted that the Subdivision Committee meeting is Thursday, May
17th. The Planning Commission meets on May 29th at 5:00 p.m.
BECKY BRYANT - ASSOCIATE PLANNER
Bryant noted that they need to show property owners across the street as well
as the adjacent owners. She added that they will need to submit the revised
copies by 1:00 p.m. on Monday. Proof of notification will need to be submitted
before the Subdivision Committee meeting. She advised that the ordinance is
vague about when the proof of notification needs to be submitted, but it is the
staff's policy to have it by the Subdivision Committee date.
JERRY FRIEND - POLICE DEPARTMENT
Friend stated that they have a very serious problem with on -street parking in
the existing Walnut Grove Subdivision north of this. They have experienced
difficulty getting a police car through the streets. He noted that this
problem needs to be dealt with in the new subdivision by means of wider
driveways, wider streets or less people. He advised that, if this subdivision
is developed as single-family, that problem should be alleviated.
PERRY FRANKLIN - TRAFFIC SUPERINTENDENT
Franklin stated that there has been concern in the past by the Planning
Commission regarding this type of configuration with only one entrance/exit.
There may be some discussion on this, but there shouldn't be a problem with this
development because of the size.
LISA COX - PARKS DEPARTMENT
Cox advised that the land dedication for greenspace would be .53 acres with the
money in lieu being $4,410. This is based on 42 single-family units. The
Parks Board will make a recommendation on this at their May 21st meeting. Mr.
Gray advised that they may have duplexes on three of the lots.
