UTILITY REPRESENTATIVES- Rick Evans, L.O. Ferguson, Dale Cheatham, Jim Crownover and Larry Winkler CITY REPRESENTATIVES- Don Bunn, Becky Bryant, Mickey Jackson, Perry Franklin and Elaine Cattaneo OTHERS PRESENT: James Cameron, Mrs. Floyd Harris and Dave Jorgensen PRELIMINARY PLAT OF GREEN MEADOWS ADDITION FLOYD HARRIS & HOWARD SANDERS - S OF NT COMFORT RD, E OF RUPPLE RD The first item of consideration was the preliminary plat of Green Meadows Addition submitted Floyd Harris & Howard Sanders and represented by James Cameron of Northwest Engineers. The property is zoned R-1, Low Density Residential, containing 30.6 acres with 89 proposed lots. DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER Bunn noted that this plat has been modified with a relocation of the intersection of Mt. Comfort Road and the Salem Road extension. He added that the water service will need to be worked out because there is a 4" line out in front of the property and will be a 6" line going into the subdivision. Bunn advised that the alignment of Salem Road through this property was an issue that was raised when this was presented a few weeks ago. The alignment, as shown on this plat, ties directly into Salem Road then moves over near the east property line. It is a reasonable alignment. This segment will be tied to the existing part of Salem Road, which goes north off of Wedington Drive, at some point in the future whenever the property in between is developed. This will be designated as a "collector" street. He noted that they can't require that the right-of-way for Salem Road on the rest of Dr. Harris' property to the south of this be dedicated at this time. However, if they are willing to dedicate that right-of-way at this time, it should be indicated on the plat for this development. Bunn advised that a bond will be required by final plat approval for the eventual widening of Mt. Comfort Road to city street standards. DALE CHEATHAM - SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE Cheatham stated that they have no problems with it. 111 RICK EVANS - ARKANSAS WESTERN GAS Evans requested that at least 20' of the building setback along the south side • • Plat Review July 19, 1990 Page 2 of Mt.

MICKEY JACKSON - FIRE CHIEF Jackson suggested that the hydrant on Wildflower Drive be moved to the corner of Wildflower & Salem Road, the hydrant on Salem Road be moved to the corner of Poppy Place & Salem Road, and the hydrant on Bluebell Avenue be moved to the corner of Salem Road and Bluebell Avenue. He advised that they need to verify that there is an existing hydrant on Mt. Comfort Road near the Buttercup Avenue intersection. There will need to be one put in if there is not an existing one. PERRY FRANKLIN - TRAFFIC SUPERINTENDENT Franklin stated that "Honeysuckle Court" conflicts with "Honeysuckle Drive" on another plat. He noted that street lighting looks good. L.O.

"Bluebell Avenue" can't be an avenue. It needs to be Street, Court, Lane or Place. She noted that the Parks Board has tabled their recommendation on the greenspace requirement on this subdivision until August 6th because of a negotiation on a possible donation of land. Bryant advised that the proof of notification of adjoining property owners needs to be submitted to the Planning Office by the Subdivision Committee meeting date. Covenants will also need to be submitted. The revised plats will need to be submitted by Monday, July 23rd. JIM CROWNOVER - OZARKS ELECTRIC Crownover requested that the building setback along one side of Salem Road be dedicated as a utility easement. He noted that they have a major feeder going up the south end of Salem Road, which they plan to extend and tie together to the north. That feeder, by necessity, will have to be an overhead line; however, the rest of the subdivision can be served underground. He added that they will take care of the street lightS.
