moved.
Ms. Little stated the Planning Commission would make the decision about the road, but the
Planning Department and engineering recommending the construction of the road. She
questioned the use of the buildings.
Mr. Ray stated about 2,000 square foot of the building would be office space and 10,000 square

Mr. Ray responded it would depend on if the cars were being towed or if they were being driven
to Lewis.

Ms Little stated they would have to look at the parking again, since staff had not been aware of
the uses and were unable to calculate the parking requirements. She added there would be one
tree and three shrubs per 40' parking frontage.
Mr. Ray questioned if they could consider the parking area screened, since it was 15' above the
road and would not be visible from the road. He also stated planting trees and shrubs would be
difficult on the steep slope.
Ms. Little stated she would need his request in writing and questioned how he planned on
stabilizing the bank.
Mr. Ray replied they would plant grass and maintain it.

$100,000.00. He understood it would help solve a lot the neighborhood problems, but now it
was not necessary for this project.

Mr. Ray explained the street would be extended in the future.
Mr. Lane responded it had been understood that the road would be a timely development. He felt
that was how it had been advertised when the building was constructed.
Mr. Ray requested more information and minutes from the meetings.
Ms. Little stated there would be a light 300' from Plainview at their driveway. She also noted
one ADA space had to be van accessible.
Mr. Beavers expressed confusion regarding the elevations shown. He commented the detention
looked to shallow and it was at the same elevations as the parking lots.
Mr. Ray stated it would not be the same elevations noting the drawings were at 5 foot contours.
He stated that ideally they preferred to have detention pond in the corner, but it had taken to
much space. He advised most of the runoff would go through the drainage basin with the water
on front being collected in a box and brought into the existing drainage system without being
detained.
UTILITY
Mr. Burrack, SWEPCO, stated there were no utility easements shown on the property. He stated
he believed there were existing easements on the north and the east sides.
Mr. Ray commented Mr. Burrack was probably correct, but stated they were not working or
changing anything in that area and he did not think it would be necessary to show the easement.
Mr. Burrack stated there was a 20' easement on the north side.
Mr. Ray stated there was also an easement on the other side.

Proctor Gamble. He stated on the east side there was an existing line going from the north
property south to the point that served the existing Cryster Dodge, which was covered by a 20'
easement. He added there was an existing easement on the west side which he believed was a 10
and 10. He noted he might ask for an additional 20'.

Mr. Ray questioned if he had a problem with the proposed parking and fence.
Mr. Burrack stated the location of the parking and fence did not create a problem; he could get
access from the opposite side of the property. He questioned the kind of grade work they would
be doing around poles.
Mr. Ray stated there would be some filling and grading but very little near the utilities.
Mr. Burrack stated that if there was going to be any change in elevation at the base of the pole,
they should contact the electric company. He cautioned OSHA and Arkansas statutes they can
not be within 10' of any equipment. He noted an additional easement might be needed across the
south side if the property was subdivided. He added it would be easier to go ahead and setback
20' for the easement. He stated the service for the building would come off the over head line to
the north and they could go underground from the line.
Mr. Mcllroy, Southwestern Bell, requested the same easements. He explained he would prefer to
serve the property from the west side.
Mr. Evans, Arkansas Western Gas, requested existing 50' gas easement be shown.
Mr. Ray stated the 25' easement on either side of the gas line would cover most of the 20'
easements the others were asking for.
Meeting adjourned at 10:15.
