Mr. Jacks asked if the Plat Review comments had been met and Ken Jones said they had.

Keith Newhouse made a motion to recommend approval of the final plat of Winwood II, Phase 2, with the stipulation that the developer meet the comments of the Plat Review Committee, and the developer not be required to construct a sidewalk on the east side of Winwood Drive.

Jones, , Pat Demaree, MINUTES WINWOOD II, PHASE 2 Final Plat The second item for consideration was the large scale development plan of Parnell ' Construction Company to develop property lying east of Highway 71 Bypass and south of Highway 62 West. Section 18-13, Fayetteville Code of Ordinances requires Planning Commission approval a controlled access highway. Kent Clement and Troy Parnell were present to represent. Chairman Jacks acknowledged a letter from City Engineer Don Bunn requesting a 30 foot utility easement off the east side of the development plan for future installation of a 24 inch water line. Mr. Jacks asked the developer if he would be willing to give this easement. Mr. Parnell said he felt the width of the easement is unreasonable. He felt a 25 foot easement would be sufficient. Mr. Jacks asked that the developer work the easement out with the City Engineer. Mr. Jacks questioned if the developer needed a waiver on the distance between the drive- way and the future street stub. Kent Clement said they had moved the driveway back to allow for the required 40 foot separation so they would not need a waiver on the distance. Keith Newhouse made a motion to recommend approval of the large scale development plan for Parnell Construction Company contingent on meeting the easement'requirement asked for by the City Engineer and conforming to the comments of the Plat Review Committee. Newton Hailey seconded the motion. Bobbie Jones said the City Manager's office had received a phone call from Mr. Howard Barnes who stated that this property is part of an estate and there is some question as to whether Mr. Parnell actually has ownership. She said City Attorney Jim McCord had told her this is strictly between the estate and Mr. Parnell and should not even be considered at this time. The motion passed unanimously.

Dewayne McChristian, Pat Demaree, and Don Mitchell were present to represent. Bobbie Jones noted that Street Superintendent Clayton Powell does not have drainage plans for either Smoke Rise Subdivision or Maple Terrace Subdivision to the west, at this time. She said Maple Terrace should have been held up on the final plat approval until the drainage plans had been approved. Bobbie Jones said the developer is asking for a waiver on street light spacing to allow a maximum of 460 feet between street lights in two instances. She said there are not any street lights existing on the service road at this time. Don Mitchell said they are planning to put a street light on Lot 1, Block B, on the service road. Bobbie Jones said they would need an additional street light at the northeast corner of the subdivision. Bobbie Jones questioned if the developer should be required to install curb and gutter along the frontage road. Mr. Jacks stated that they have required curb and gutter on previous subdivisions. Bobbie Jones noted that they would need a waiver on the distance between reverse curves. One hundred feet is required and they are only proposing 88 feet. She also said the developer had told her he was not sure how they would develop Lot 8, Block B so they would have to wait on easements for that block until they decide if they want individual lots or apartments. Bobbie Jones noted that the lots which are already platted are large enough for triplexes or fourplexes. • Keith Newhouse made a motion to recommend approval of the large scale development plan with the4following'stipulations: 1) waive the distance between_street lights on Jewell Road to permit a maximum of 460 feet; 2) waive the distance between reverse curves from 100 feet to 88 feet as shown on the plat; 3) add one street light at the northeast corner of Lot 8, Block B and install curb, gutter and sidewalks on the frontage road; . . 4) meet the comments of the Plat Review Committee.
