30, 1995 at 10:30 a.m., in Room 111 of the City Administration Building, 113 West
Mountain Street, Fayetteville, Arkansas.

PRELIMINARY PLAT - BOIS D'ARC
JULIAN ARCHER - N OF MAPLE, E OF SANG
The first item on the agenda was a preliminary plat submitted by Jorgensen and
Associates on behalf of Julian Archer for property located north of Maple, east
of Sang Street. The property is zoned R-1, Low Density Residential, and contains
19 lots on 26.45 acres.
Ms. Little pointed out Maple Street existed on the east property line of the
subject property with a 30 -foot right-of-way from the section corner at the
north. She explained the staff felt it was incumbent upon on the Commission to
make a decision as to whether or not Maple Street should be connected. She
suggested that, due to the grade, it might be better to have the right-of-way
turn north at the corner and continue northerly to a right angle at Lot 3.
Additionally, she stated the grade was 12% to 15% in some places.
Discussion ensued regarding right of way and various options for Maple Street
extension.
Ms. Little stated staff's request was made to maintain consistency. She pointed
out there was an existing stubout required of another adjacent subdivision.
Ms. Britton asked if it was possible the property to the south would be further
developed.
Ms. Little explained the next street to the south was Halsell and all of the
property owners adjacent to the subject tract had access from Halsell. She noted
she was sure the existing property owners to the south would assure the Committee
they would not develop their property.
Mr. Allred inquired as to whether or not it might be better to just required
connections or stubouts to the north and southwest.
Ms. Little reminded the Committee Westwood Subdivision had been required to
dedicate 25 feet of right-of-way to the City at the time they developed and the
lots in Westwood were much smaller then those shown on the subject plat.
Ms. Britton noted she would not want to encourage a street at the grade shown.
Mr. Allred inquired as to whether or not it might be better to require the 25
feet of right-of-way and not the improvements.
Mr. Allred stated that he did not feel that extension of Maple Street was that
important because there would still be major traffic on Sang and Cleveland.
It was determined the plat would be posted so the adjoining property owners could
review it while the Committee reviewed other items on the agenda.

MOTION
Mr. Reynolds made a motion to postpone the preliminary plat until the next

Mr. Allred seconded the motion with the condition that public comment be heard.
Ms. Marion Orton, on behalf of Joe Gwen, an adjoining property owner, questioned
the dedication of the street right-of-way as platted. She stated access to the
south side of Maple had at one point been denied on the grounds that it was
outside the city limits. Additionally she stated Mr. Gwen opposed the street
extension due to the steepness of the property and the drainage problems the
extension would cause.
Mr. Jim Scroggs, an adjoining property owner to the south, agreed with Ms. Orton,
contending extending the street would cause water run off problems.
Mr. McCartney, an adjoining property owner to the east, contended extension of
Maple would adversely impact the quiet neighborhood with added traffic. He also
pointed out the existing street was not of standard width.
Mr. Harold Howard, an adjoining property owner, noted the Master Street Plan did
not reflect Maple Street's extension.
Mr. Bunn explained local streets were not on the Master Street Plan which
represented only collector and arterial streets.
Mr. Howard contended the grade would be impractical and would not help the flow
of traffic.
Mr. Allred stated the staff was following directives from the Planning Commission
and City Council regarding alternative traffic flow options. He advised he
failed to see the benefit of extending Maple since there was access on Halsell.
Ms. Little pointed out a stubout had been required at some previous time and the
record showed there was right-of-way for a street.
Mr. Jorgensen stated he understood and appreciated the staff's intentions but did
not believe the grade of the terrain would allow for extension of Maple.
Mr. McCartney also advised there were two houses in the path of the proposed
extension.
MOTION
Mr. Reynolds moved to table the plat until the next meeting of the Subdivision
Committee.
Mr. Allred disagreed, stating he would like to forward the plat to the Planning

CEDARPOINT SUBDIVISION
LEONARD GABBARD, ENGINEER
Mr. Bunn reminded the Committee that several weeks earlier Cedarpoint Subdivision
had been forwarded to the Planning Commission and, at that time, there had been
negotiation with the property owners on the west side for sale of additional
property. Additionally he stated there had been an issue raised regarding
drainage and the affect it would have on the adjacent property. He advised the
Planning Commission had tabled the item until some of the problems were solved.
He went on to say that, since the meeting, the engineers had submitted the design
for a retention basin which would restrict flow based on a ten year storm. He
stated he had approved the plan and construction had begun. He explained they
had done some theoretical calculations regarding the predevelopment flow on 5
acres along Curtis Street and found there was 9 CFS through the area based on a
10 year storm. Additionally, he stated that post development flows could be up
to 12.5 CFS. He advised he had recommended the developer do whatever necessary
to get the drainage to the southwest corner of the project (following the
streets) which would reduce the post development flow to the pre -development
level.
The meeting adjourned at 12:15 p.m.

own road. Additionally she stated that the grade in that area is fairly steep as well. Further she stated that the Squires
own between 4 and 6 acres as do the Gwens. Therefore chances are that it won't develop but that could not be
guaranteed.

southwest and leave it at that. Discussion ensued.
Ms. Little stated Westwood Subdivision had been required to dedicate 25 feet right of way to the City at the time they
developed and the lots in Westwood were much smaller.' Mr. Allred inquired as to whether or not it might be better

A member of the audience inquired as to the effect the right of way would have on Lot 3. Mr. Conklin stated that there
was a possibility of running a street at the end of Maple Street due north and tying into the subdivision somewhere in
the vicinity of Lot 3.

the major traffic on Sang and Cleveland. Further he stated that this would be a less valuable and therefore unnecessary
street if it ties in with Cleveland or Sang.
Discussion ensued regarding options for connecting to Maple Street. Ms. Little stated that Mr. Bunn would post a plat
outside and explain and answer pertinent questions and discussion would resume later on in the meeting.
