A meeting of the Subdivision Committee to the Fayetteville Planning Commission
was held at•3:45 P. M. Tuesday, July 22, 1975, in the Board of Directors Room,
City Administration Building, Fayetteville, Arkansas.
MEMBERS PRESENT: Ernest Jacks, Helen Edmiston.
MEMBERS ABSENT: John Power.
OTHERS PRESENT: Bobbie Jones, Janet Bowen.
RIDGEVIEW BAPTIST CHURCH
1; The first item for consideration was the Large Scale L. S. D.
Development Plan submitted by Ridgeview Baptist Church at. 1880 Huntsville Road
(Highway 16 East) to construct an educational building. This is a conditional
use request due to the property being zoned R-1.
After reviewing the Plat Review Committee notes Mr. Jacks and Mrs. Edmiston found
the only question was the dedication of right-of-way for Happy Hollow Road and
/II Highway 16 East, and the 40 foot setback that is shown from the West property
line. A 50 foot setback from residential properties is required with air-
conditioning for churches, schools, etc. in residential zones.
The Planning Administrator brought out that the Planning Commission had the
authority to reduce this setback since this is a large scale development (Article 7,
Section 14).
Mr. Jacks stated he felt the ordinance required that much of a setback for a
n reason and, was not inclined to reducing the setback.
• There was no further discussion and the Subdivision Committee was prepared to
recommend the approval of the Large -Scale Development Plan of Ridgeview Baptist Church
on the basis that they provide additional right-of-way for Happy Hollow Road and
Highway 16 East (40 feet from the existing centerline of each).

SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS
The discussion on possible changes in the Subdivision Regulations was not discussed
in depth at this meeting due to the absence of Planning Consultant Larry Wood who
had jury duty.
Mr. Jacks said his impression was that this was written in a very'vague language.
OTHER BUSINESS
The only item under "Other Business" was the PUD submitted by Helen Edmiston
(known as 19th Green) located South of Mud Creek.
Mrs. Edmiston said this was approved March 19, 1975. She said at one time Lot 16
was shown as one lot and now in order to get building permits she was having
to show where the buildings would be placed. She said all the utilities had
approved this and that the street, (which is a private one) was already in.
Planning Administrator Bobbie Jones said the Plat' Review Committee wanted the
20 foot easement along the North side of the private drive (South side of Lot 16).
Mr. Jacks felt that approval of this should be recommended to the Planning Commission.
There was no further discussion.
The meeting was adjourned at 4:05 P. M.
