Date: April 24 2002
To: Fayetteville Planning Commission
From: Hugh Earnest
Urban Development Director
Subject: Amendment to Final Plat/Shadow Hill subdivision
Background
Several months ago,the developer of record for the referenced subdivision began construction of
some 14 houses. The area was platted in 1975 and because of that the approval under which he
is building, allows the construction of 12 individual driveways that connect to Old Wire road.
This particular road carries a great deal of traffic and in addition in this location there are sight
distance concerns relating to ingress and egress on to Old Wire. The situation relative to safety
concerns has been discussed at length internally among key city staff as well as with the
developer.
Current Situation
The development of the houses is nearing completion. Both the developer and city staff are in
basic agreement that final completion of this area allowing separate ingress and egress to this
road is not in the best interest of the developer or the public. Because of that concern, the
engineer of record for the developer has prepared a drawing showing a private access road with
points of access on Old Wire Road and Colette Ave. A copy of the referenced drawing has been
provided with agenda materials for this item.
Recommendation
Because of the unusual circumstances surrounding this subdivision, I have taken the initiative in
applying on behalf of the developer for an Amendment to the final plat that shows the
installation of a private drive serving the 14 lots. Both city staff and the developer have met with
the adjoining neighbors. Screening of adjoining properties,proper control of runoff coupled
with the layout and construction of the access drive have been discussed and recommendations
are reflected in the attached staff report from the Planning Division. It is the recommendation of
City staff that this final plat Amendment be approved.

BACKGROUND:
The Shadow Hill Subdivision is a 14 lot residential subdivision located along the east side
of Old Wire Road at the point where it intersects Old Missouri Road. This subdivision was
created in 1975 and all infrastructure and utilities that were required at the time were
installed. In November of 2001,permits were issued for the development of single family
homes on each of the lots within the subdivision in accordance with current zoning
regulations. Traffic patterns within the City have changed since the approval of this
development in 1975. The amount of traffic and the configuration of streets adjacent to
Shadow Hill at this time make evident the dangerous situation that could occur should
eleven individual driveways be constructed to intersect Old Wire Rd. in this location.
Staff and the developer agree that a common access drive through the subdivision would
ameliorate the problem. In order for this change to occur, staff felt it necessary for the
Planning Commission to review the proposed common drive as an amendment to the final
plat that was approved in 1975. This change will effect property owners adjoining the
subdivision, specifically owners to the south and those along Colette Ave. All adjoining
property owners have been notified. Planning and Engineering staff and the developer "
have met with concerned property owners to better understand the impact,that this change
will have on their properties.

Fayetteville,AR 72701
Dear Mr. Conklin:
Since I will be out of town on April 29,the date of the Planning Commision hearing on the common drive that
Robert Schmitt, Greg Sevadjian and Greg Henry request for Shadow Hill Subdivision,I am, at your request,
writing you about my concerns.
With fourteen rental houses on this piece of land and an estimated four occupants per house and four cars per
house,this driveway is going to have a large amount of traffic plus a lot of on-street parking.The drive will also
serve frequent runs of garbage-recycling trucks plus heavy moving vans by necessity.Therefore,I hope the
Planning Commission considers requiring them to construct a drive of substantial strength.
And where the drive will enter Colette Avenue,they have already put in a substandard size culvert. This,they said,
was merely temporary,but I draw it to your attention because the two pipes they threw in the ditch and covered
with chat is totally inadequate to carry the water in the ditch..The upper north end of these pipes have been mostly
stopped up since they were emplaced.
Also,the ditch Hunting east along the south edge of Old Wire Road that is supposed to empty into the ditch
running south along the west side of Colette Avenue is so filled with brush,trash,and soil that it needs grading
and deepening so that it serves the purpose for which it was intended.The runoff,it appears to me,from Old Wire
Road into this ditch now runs mostly across the land in Shadow Hill Subdivision.
Finally,before these red-clay pads were placed on this subdivision and the houses were built on the pads much of
the rainfall there was absorbed by the soil.Now,there is increased nlnoff from the housetops onto these pads that
results in red silt draining across my property and into my pond,which is being killed by silt. And since I have a
system of French detains around my house,I fear this silt could be stopping up the whole works. I started last
November talking to Schmitt and Sevadjian about my concern over this drainage problem.They promised me they
would grade the area along their south line,which affects my neighbors to the West and East as well as myself,and
would build a berm along the north side of their south line so as to divert the runoff to the east into the ditch along
the west side of Colette Avenue.It is now late April and the grading and berm have not been done.Likewise the
silt fence they put up was totally useless;the bottom of it was never buried and the silt flows freely under it and
across their south line. It rained all night on the twenty-second--twenty-third and we all received another deluge of
Silt.
An after thought: since their worksite is so boggy,they have been parking on Colette and other streets in the
neighborhood. Could the city not prohibit this?
Sincerely yours,
Planning Commission

Re: Drainage concerns - Shadow Hills Subdivision, Robert Schmitt house builder.
Dear Sir,
Thank you for your letter of January 15, 2002 concerning the drainage and Mr. Schmidtt's
houses.
The Shadow Hills Subdivision was platted as 14 lots in 1975 and the infrastructure required at
that time either installed or available.
Representatives from Planning (Hugh Earnest,Dawn Warrick and Tim Conklin), Engineering
(Jim Beavers) and the City Attorney's office(Kit Williams)met with Mr. Schmidtt and his
attorney Rick Osborne on November 16, 2001. At this meeting it was confirmed that the
subdivision plat was valid and that the construction of individual homes upon individual platted
lots did not constitute new development. As a result of this finding, the Engineering Division
has no authority to impose the City's Drainage or Grading ordinances at this location.
At this same meeting the City requested that Mr. Schmidtt present a common drive to improve
the safety on the curve on Old Wire Road. If this common drive is approved by the Planning
Commission, (the meeting is tentatively set for February 11, 2002) then Engineering will review
the driveway plan (only) and strive to use this drive to improve the subdivision drainage. At the
November 16, 2001 meeting, Mr. Schmidtt was in agreement to try and use the common drive to
assist with the drainage concerns. The plan has not yet been presented and thus the extent of the
drainage to be cutoff and/or improved by the common drive is unknown at this time.
Your own personal agreements with Mr. Schmidtt may be included in the Planning Commission
discussions and I urge you to be present at the meeting tentatively set for February 11, 2002, or
make your comments to the Planning Commissioners by letter or phone.
Please note that the City does not regulate drainage from single family house construction. The
drainage from the adjacent new houses onto your property is a private matter between you and
the adjacent property owner(s). If you believe that you have been damaged then your recourse is
directly with the other private party including private legal recourse.
Sincerely,
im Beavers, P.E.

Dear Mr. Beaver:
My home, at 2673 Colette Avenue, sits on seven acres of land adjoining Shadow Hills
Subdivision that is now being developed by Robert Schmitt, Greg Sevadjian, and Greg
Henry. My north frontage along Shadow Hills is 262.05 feet and is lower in elevation so
that my land is subject to water runoff along its entire length.
Soon after their development began, I talked to Schmitt and Servadjian about my concern
over this drainage problem. They told me they would grade the area along this line and
divert the water runoff to the east along their south line into the ditch along the west side
of Colette Avenue. Originally, there was to have been a concrete private drive along this
line to serve the tandem lots 12, 13, and 14 that were landlocked along their south line.
They are now requesting that the Planning Commission approve abandoning construction
of this southeast private drive and move it north between Lots I 1 and 12. If approved, I
am concerned about where this leaves their agreement to grade along my north line and
divert the runoff to Colette at their southeast corner. Accordingly, I would like to request
that the Planning Commission and Engineering Division protect my property rights by
supervising the grading and preparation of this drainage system.
Thank you for your consideration of my request.
Sincerely yours,
Walter Lee Brown

DATE: April 25, 2002 (for April 29, 2002 P.C. Meeting)
SUBJECT: Hamstring Basin Sewer Assessment Refund
LS 97-30 (Airways Freight Lot Split)
Project: AD 01-49A: Administrative Item (Airways Freight Refund, pp 439)was
submitted by City Staff on behalf of Airways Freight Corporation for property located at 3849
Wedington Drive. The request is to refund the assessment for the offsite sewer improvements in
the amount of$200.00 plus interest that was assessed for a lot split to create a 5.24 acre lot.
Findings: A lot split(LS 97-30)was approved administratively by the Planning Division
that created a 5.24 acre lot that was purchased by Airways Freight. The project was heard at the
September 2, 1997 Technical Plat Review to collect comments from City Staff and the public
utility companies. One of the comments stated that "as with other subdivisions in the area- a
$200.00 fee will be assessed for improvements to the Hamstring Creek Basin." This assessment
was collected on September 30, 1997. Find attached a copy of the minutes from the September
2, 1997 Technical Plat Review.
Staff Recommendation: Approval of the full refund in the amount of$200.00 plus interest.
§158.05 OFFSITE IMPROVEMENTS/DELAYS
A. Proportionate Share.
2. If the off-site improvement is not constructed within five years from the date of the first
payment into the escrow account by a developer,the Planning Commission shall hold a public hearing,
after notification to all affected property owners,to determine the disposition of all money in the escrow
account. Following the public hearing,the Planning Commission may:
a. Determine that the off-site improvement is still necessary and feasible and can be built
within a reasonable time,in which case the escrow account shall be continued for a
period specified by the Planning Commission: or
b. Determine that the off-site improvement is not necessary, or will not be feasible,or that
insufficient development has occurred to render the improvement likely in the
foreseeable future,in which case the Planning Commission shall either:

improvements to the Hamstring Creek basin.
Mr. Alexander questioned when Rupple Road would be built. He asked what would happen if
Rupple Road was not constructed.
Ms. Little explained if Rupple Road was not constructed within five years the Planning
Commission would look at the item. If the roads construction was imminent then the money
would be refunded. She noted interest would be paid on the money until the money was
refunded or the sidewalk was built.
Mr.Alexander questioned the amount of the contribution required for Rupple Road.
Ms. Little stated the staff was working on the estimate. She noted there was a subdivision
developing to the west that was also contributing to the construction cost of Rupple Road.
Mr. Merryship asked if the applicant could property line adjust with Airways and not do a lot
split.
Ms. Warrick stated there were problems with lot frontage. The 5.24 acres was zoned A-1, the

existing Airways property was zoned R-O.
Mr. Alexander stated a lot split would be to expensive for a single family home. He asked if they
could property line adjust.
Ms. Little stated the 6' sidewalk had been required along Wedington with the Airway addition.
The sidewalk would have to installed. The new lot needed frontage for an A-1 lot.
Mr. Alexander asked if they could use some of Airways frontage.
Ms. Little replied Airways was zoned R-O. The frontage needed to be A-1. She explained the
purpose of subdivision review was to review lot layout the make sure orderly circulation could
occur in the future. The tract they were wanting to create was next to a Master Street Planned
street. The city needed to receive right-of-way. If they were to property line adjust his frontage
would be 200'.
Mr. Alexander asked if the property could be adjusted to have all the property become one lot.
Ms. Little thought they could lot line adjust the property as an accessory use.
Ms. Warrick stated the plat would need to be revised to show both the parent tract and the
Airways tract before and after the adjustment.
Mr. Mer yship asked if they would be able to access Rupple Road when it was constructed.
He questioned the difference between the lot split and lot line adjustment.
Ms. Little replied he would be able to use Rupple Road,however, he would not be able to sell
the home separately without going through lot split.
Mr. Alexander did not believe a lot split was affordable.
Mr. Beaver stated a private easement would be required for water service.
Ms. Little commented the contribution to the Rupple Road extension would be a small
percentage of the cost of the road. She noted it would be based on the traffic generated.
