ADM 11-4019: Administrative Item (NORTH SIDE OF MLK BETWEEN BLOCK AND EAST
AVENUES/JACOBS, 523): Submitted by APPIAN, INC. for property located ON THE NORTH SIDE OF
MARTIN LUTHER KING BOULEVARD BETWEEN BLOCK AVENUE AND EAST AVENUE. The
property is zoned NC, NEIGHBORHOOD CONSERVATION and contains approximately 1.00 acre. The
request is for a variance of the Access Management Ordinance to allow for a curb cut onto Martin Luther
King Boulevard, a Collector Street, when the property also has frontage onto lower classification streets.
Andrew Garner, Senior Planner, presented the staff report.
Evan Neiheus, applicant, discussed the request.
No public comment was presented.
Commissioner Earnest asked for clarification on the variance process and access management.
Kit Williams, City Attorney, described the variance procedures listed in both chapters 166 and 156 of the
Fayetteville Unified Development Code.
Garner discussed the variance process and staff's recommendation for this request.
Commissioner Earnest discussed reasons why he did not agree with the variance request.
Commissioner Hoskins asked about the design of the homes addressing the side streets instead of MLK.
Evan Neihues, applicant, discussed that what they are proposing will be a good situation and that the shared
drive will function like a center alley.
Commissioner Hoskins asked about property values being diminished by not addressing MLK and discussed
safety issues with accessing MLK.
Evan Neihues, applicant, discussed the proposed efficiency and design of the six lots and preservation of trees
within the platted alley adjacent to the north.
Garner discussed that there is a platted undeveloped alley along the north property line, however it was
somewhat of an economic hardship for the applicant to construct a public alley along the north property line and
then construct the rear shared driveway for these lots as proposed.
Commissioner Hoskins stated that they have made a good case
Commissioner Cabe discussed that MLK carries a lot of traffic and disagrees with staff and is not in support of
the variance.
Commissioner Earnest discussed mature trees along the north property line, and concerns with this not
meeting the access management ordinance.
Commissioner Cabe discussed that the developer created the hardship and that there are other options to access
this site.

SYCAMORE STREET. The property is zoned C-2, THOROUGHFARE COMMERCIAL and contains
approximately 0.88 acre. The request is to allow Animal Boarding and Training, Use Unit 43, in a C-2 zoning
district.
Andrew Garner, senior planner, presented the staff report.
Bob Kelley, applicant's architect, discussed the proposed project and issues with dog barking being covered
under existing laws.
Kit Williams, City Attorney, discussed the regulation of dog barking and that even though dog barking is
regulated under a different ordinance that issue could be considered by the commissioners under this
conditional use.
Bob Kelley, applicant, stated that they do not have ugly dogs and that the dogs will be kept behind fences.
The intent is to keep dogs about 50 yards away from things that they would bark at. He discussed that the
adjoining property owners have no problem with this request and read and passed out emails from these
owners.
Valorie Murphy, owner/applicant, discussed their business and the reasons that they need to move and
expand. She discussed the outdoor greenspace that will be used by the dogs.
Commissioner Griffin stated that he currently has a dog in this facility's training program and asked the City
Attorney if that is a conflict for him to discuss and vote on this item.
Williams discussed that because Commissioner Griffin does not have a financial interest in this business that
him being a customer of this business does not disqualify him.
The other commissioners gave a general consensus that they also did not think Commissioner Griffin needed
to recuse.
Julia Dora, customer of the applicant, discussed that she has been a customer of Valorie's for many years and
that the dogs are not loud all the time.
Dianna Nagle, co -trainer at Canine Connection, discussed outdoor dog training in the outdoor space during
evenings and that they do not tolerate barking.
No more public comment was presented.
Commissioner Griffin discussed his dog is in a class at this business now. He discussed that the dogs that do
agility training do not bark as much as typical dogs. This is a very professional operation. He is not concerned
with the noise from barking. The apartments around here will make more noise than this business and that the
storage facility to the west will not be an issue.
Commissioner Chesser discussed that this is a fairly noise area. He is not swayed from the letters from the
property manager as they do not live in the surrounding apartments.
Commissioner Cabe asked how many dogs would be outside at one time.

Page 10 of 14
Valorie Murphy discussed that 15 dogs at one time would be outside.
Commissioner Cabe asked about a previous dog day care application several years ago and a condition of
approval related to dog barking.
Garner discussed a condition of approval related to dog barking could be included.
Williams read a potential condition of approval regarding dog barking.
Valorie Murphy stated that they could agree to the condition of approval read by the City Attorney because
they have to let their dogs outside before 8 AM in the morning.
Commissioner Chesser discussed that noise in this area from a train coming by at 5:30 AM would be
compounded by dogs going outside at 6:30 AM.
Commissioner Winston that we have denied some of these in the past and that it is time to do an experiment
and approve one and see if it works.
Motion:
Commissioner Winston made a motion to approve CUP 11-3998 with all recommended conditions, and with
the addition of Condition #7 stating that no more that five dogs shall be allowed outside between the hours of 9
PM and 6:30 AM.
Commissioner Cook seconded the motion.
Williams read Condition #7 as added by Commissioner Winston as follows:
"No more than five dogs shall be allowed in the play area outside the building during the hours of9 PM to 6;30
AM daily. If the facility, its owner or operator, is convicted for excessive noise or other violations, this
conditional use may be revoked or further conditions imposed."
Upon roll call the motion passed with a vote of 8-0-0.

request is to allow a tandem lot.
Andrew Garner, senior planner, presented the staff report.
Derrick Thomas, applicant, discussed that they understood for a while that staff was recommending denial
but was looking for direction and a decision from the commission on the proposed tandem lot. He discussed
that the applicant only wanted one large lot at the back.
Commissioner Hoskins asked if a street could be built or if there were site constraints such as evidence of
springs or wetlands.
Derrick Thomas, applicant, discussed that he was the surveyor and described drainage patterns going
through this property and that was why he included a drainage ditch on the survey, although it was not a
stream. He said there could potentially be wetlands.
Commissioner Chesser asked about the tandem lot findings, lot size and street frontage.
Garner discussed the tandem lot findings and that the proposed lot size was comparable to surrounding areas
but that a street could be feasibly constructed.
Commissioner Winston discussed that he does not have enough information to vote for or against this
application because he is not sure whether or not a road could be built through the property. He would need to
walk the property to evaluate this further.

CUP 11-4013: Conditional Use Permit (2143 N. RUPPLE RD./DAUGHERTY, 361):
Submitted by ROBERT R. DAUGHERTY for property located at 2143 NORTH RUPPLE
ROAD. The property is zoned R -O, RESIDENTIAL OFFICE and contains approximately 4.57
acres. The request is to change the nonconforming use to another nonconforming use.
Planner: Jesse Fulcher
Findings:
Property: The subject property is located at the southwest comer of Rupple Road and Mount
Comfort Road and contains approximately 4.50 acres. The lot is developed with two large warehouse
buildings that are divided into three separate spaces, containing approximately 30,000 square feet
total. According to Washington County records the buildings were constructed in 1955 when the
property was outside the city limits. The City of Fayetteville annexed the property in 2004 as part of
the island annexation ordinance.
The current owner purchased the property in 2004; three months after the property had been annexed.
At that time the front two spaces were already being leased by a wholesale marble company and the
back space was used as a repair shop and storage space by a property maintenance employee.
Starting in 2008 the marble company began to reduce its operations, prompting the owner to take in
new tenants. However, the owner was not aware of the requirement to obtain conditional use
approval to allow other business types to use the buildings.
In 2011 Fence Co began leasing a portion of the building and constructed a barbed wire topped chain
link fence around the property to secure the fencing materials. This prompted an area property owner
to call in a complaint to the Planning office. City staff inspected the property and contacted the
property owner about the fence violation, and the requirement to obtain conditional use approval for
Fence Co to legally operate on the property.
The owner has submitted numerous property records to establish previous uses of the structure. The
businesses and operation dates are listed in Table 1. Surrounding land use and zoning is depicted in
Table 2.

Proposal: The applicant requests approval of a conditional use permit for a change in an existing
nonconforming use to allow the three existing business(Potters House, Flying Dog and Fence Co) to
operate. Pursuant to UDC Section 164.12(E)(3), an existing nonconforming use may be changed to
another nonconforming use with conditional use approval by the Planning Commission.
Public Comment: A property owner from the area called in a complaint to the Planning office
when Fence Co initially moved into the property in September 2011 (change in nonconforming
use) and erected a chain link fence.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Staff recommends approval of the CUP 11-4013, subject to
the following conditions:
1. Planning Commission determination that the proposed use is equally appropriate or
more appropriate to the district than the existing nonconforming use. Staff
recommends in favor of the change of nonconforming use finding that the uses
succeeding the wholesale marble company are equally appropriate, so long as outdoor
storage of materials is kept to a minimum and out of view from the public.
2. Hours of operation shall be limited to 8:00 A.M. through 6:00 P.M. Monday
through Friday.
3. Outdoor storage of materials shall not be visible to the public.
4. Within 30 days of approval of this permit the existing chain link fence shall be
removed to comply with § 166.14 Commercial Design Standards, which prohibits
chain link fences between the street and building.

(b.) That the granting of the conditional use will not adversely affect the
public interest.
Finding: The property is developed with three large metal warehouse buildings that have
been used for nonresidential uses for over 50 years. With appropriate
conditions, the use of the property for the three existing businesses should not
adversely affect the public interest.
Finding: N/A
(c.) The Planning Commission shall certify:
(1.) Compliance with the specific rules goveming individual
conditional uses; and
(2.) That satisfactory provisions and arrangements have been
made concerning the following, where applicable:
(a.) Ingress to and egress from property and proposed
structures thereon with particular reference to
automotive and pedestrian safety and convenience,
traffic flow and control and access in case of fire or
catastrophe;
Finding: Access to the site will be from an existing driveway on Rupple Road.
(b.) Off-street parking and loading areas where required,
with particular attention to ingress and egress,
economic, noise, glare, or odor effects of the special
exception on adjoining properties and properties
generally in the district;
Finding: It is unlikely that there will be any economic, noise, glare, or odor effects on
adjoining properties given the business types operating at this facility and that
surrounding properties are used for agricultural purposes.

(c.) Refuse and service areas, with particular reference to
ingress and egress, and off-street parking and loading,
Finding: A dumpster is already in use on the property and serviced by the Solid Waste
Department.
Finding: N/A.
(d.)Utilities, with reference to locations, availability, and
compatibility;
(e.) Screening and buffering with reference to type,
dimensions, and character;
Finding: The applicant is proposing to install a wood board privacy fence for security and
screening. The location of the fence shall be reviewed and approved by Planning
staff prior to installation.
(f.)
Signs, if any, and proposed exterior lighting with
reference to glare, traffic safety, economic effect, and
compatibility and harmony with properties in the
district;
Finding: Signs are permitted pursuant to Chapter 174 Signs for the Residential Office
zoning district.
(g.) Required setbacks and other open space; and
Finding: All separation and setback requirements will be met with development of the
property.
(h.) General compatibility with adjacent properties and
other property in the district.
Finding: It would not be appropriate to locate this type of warehouse facility in a
primarily rural/residential area today. However, this facility has been in use for
approximately 50 years, long before the majority of residences were built in the
area. The buildings have been occupied by a variety of heavy commercial uses,
and sometimes industrial uses, for decades, and ever since the property was
annexed into the City of Fayetteville in 2004. As long as outdoor storage of
materials is kept to a minimum and out of view from the public, the current
businesses operating at this facility should be generally compatible with
surrounding land uses.
