Mountain St. Fayetteville, AR 72701 Telephone: (479) 575-8267 As requested by the Chair of the Planning Commission, Commissioner James Graves and I have discussed options for consideration by the Planning Commission pertaining to guidelines for applicants that wish to give a digital presentation to the Planning Commission. Attached are recommendations for these guidelines, for your review. It is the intent of this guide to educate applicants and members of the public on how to conduct a digital presentation utilizing the equipment the City of Fayetteville currently has available, and to do so in an effective and time - efficient manner. Further, it is the not the intent to add these guidelines to the Planning Commission's bylaws; rather, this guide would be published on the City's website and available to all applicants and neighborhood organizations through our Neighborhood Coordinator. Thanks, Jeremy K: Ueremy12007 CorrespondencelBoard MemoslDigital Pres Guidelines.doc Guidelines for Digital Presentations (Room 219) Planning Commission of the City of Fayetteville (Draft 01/29/07) The City of Fayetteville offers applicants the ability to present a land use or development project by way of digital media in Room 219 of City Hall. Digital presentations, which primarily consist of Powerpoint or similar presentation software, may be used to better illustrate development plans and communicate planning concepts to the Planning Commission and the viewing public. The following guidelines are intended to best utilize the facilities that are available and to provide procedures for applicants to follow to create an efficient and effective presentation: 1) Applicants should notify Planning Staff of their intention to make a digital presentation prior to the meeting. Staff will provide information about setup of laptops or utilizing the hard -wired network and projector in the room. 2) Keep in mind that technology does not always work as expected. It is recommended that presenters bring a backup, conventional presentation in case of failure of the digital version. 3) Applicants have a maximum of 20 minutes to present a project, including all verbal and digital presentations. If you use more than your allotted time, the Planning Commission Chair has the right to terminate the presentation. To present your project effectively in this limited time, do not attempt to cover too much material. Discuss only the major points of your project. a) A useful rule of thumb for slides is to use no more than one (1) for each minute of your presentation. The content of a single slide should be easily comprehended in 20 seconds. b) Keep the data on slides simple. Please do not read each slide to the Commission. 4) Keep in mind that the Commission has been provided a full packet of information about your project several days preceding the meeting. There is no need to begin a digital narrative as though the project is being seen for the first time. 5) Quoting ordinances with which the Commission is already familiar is unnecessary. 6) Use large, legible letters for any text presented. If you can read 35mm/2" x 2" slides without magnification, people in the rear of the room can probably read them on the screen. Also, be advised that the view to the projection screen is obstructed from some seats on the dais THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS PC Meeting of February 12, 2007 PLANNING DIVISION CORRESPONDENCE TO: Fayetteville Planning Commission FROM: Andrew Garner, Senior Planner Matt Casey, Assistant City Engineer THRU: Jeremy Pate, Director of Current Planning DATE: February 6, 2007 125 W.

Mountain St. Fayetteville, AR 72701 Telephone: (479) 575-8267 VAC 07-2439: (CENTRAL UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, 484): Submitted by JORGENSEN & ASSOCIATES for property located at 6 W. DICKSON. The property is zoned MAIN STREET CENTER and contains approximately 6.02 acres. The request is to vacate a utility easement and alley on the subject property. Planner: Suzanne Morgan Findings: Property Description and Background: On January 22, 2006, the Planning Commission approved Large Scale Development 06-2300 for Central United Methodist Church. The development included a parking garage which was to be constructed over a platted alley and utility easements. Conditions of approval for the development included the following: The existing, unconstructed alleys and utilityeasements on the property, in which the proposed buildings encroach, shall be vacated prior to issuance of a building permit on the property. Request: The applicant requests vacation of a total 0.13 acres of alley and easement on the subject property, located south of Lafayette Street. For some time, the property owner has coordinated the relocation of the gas lines and other utilities from these alleys and easements. The applicant has not included a portion of the alley which is located between CUMC property and the post office. Since this alley is adjacent to two property owners, notification is required to be given to all adjacent property owners. According to the applicant, the adjacent owners have not been responsive; therefore, because the development did not encroach upon this portion of the alley, it was not requested to be vacated. What would result is a landlocked 128' alley that will not be maintained by the city or utilized by the public. Staff recommends that the applicant modify the vacation petition to include this portion of the alley. An easement can be dedicated in its place K:\Reports\2007\PC Reports\02-12-07\VAC 07-2439 (CUMC).doc February 12, 2007 Planning Commission VAC 07-2439 Central United Methodist Church Agenda Item 4 Page 1 of 8 should there be any existing or future utilities that locate in this area.
