stating the grounds on which it is requested.
Finding: The applicant has submitted a written application requesting a conditional
use permit for a shared parking agreement to utilize 11 off-site parking
spaces.
2. The applicant shall pay a filing fee as required under Chapter 159 to cover the
cost of expenses incurred in connection with processing such application.
Finding: The required filing fee has been paid.
3. The Planning Commission shall make the following written findings before a
conditional use shall be issued:
(a.) That it is empowered under the section of this chapter described in
the application to grant the conditional use; and
Finding: The Planning Commission is empowered under §172.05(C)(3)(d) and
§172.06(C) to grant a conditional use permit to allow shared and off-street
parking that can not be provided on the same lot as the principal use due to
existing buildings, but not more than 600 feet distant.
(b) That the granting of the conditional use will not adversely affect
the public interest.
Finding: The applicant proposes to provide a majority of their required parking on-
site (33 out of 41 required automobile parking spaces will be onsite), and to
utilize a shared parking agreement with the adjacent property to the south
for the remaining 9 parking spaces required. A copy of this shared parking
agreement has been attached to this staff report. Staff finds that with this
shared parking agreement and the existing on-site parking adequate parking
for the restaurant willbe provided. Employees or customers o,f the
restaurant can easily walk from the adjacent parking lot to the subject
property. The proposed shared and off-site parking meet the intent of the
ordinance and will not adversely affect the public interest.
(c)
The Planning Commission shall certify:
(i)
Compliance with the specific rules governing individual
conditional uses; and
Finding: The applicant has complied with specific rules governing this conditional use
request.
(ii) That satisfactory provisions and arrangements have been
made concerning the following, where applicable:

(a.) Ingress and egress to 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: The proposed shared parking on the adjacent site is easily accessed for a
pedestrian going to the restaurant as the sites are directly adjacent to one
another. Staff fmds that the shared parking site is suitable and safe for
pedestrians walking to or from the restaurant.
(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: As discussed in finding 3(b) staff fmds that off-street parking is adequate for
the proposed use.
(c.) Refuse and service areas, with particular reference to
ingress and egress, and off-street parking and loading,
Finding: Solid waste service is already provided on the site, but the patio addition will
require a modification to this service. The applicant shall coordinate with the
Solid Waste Department to discuss the change to service.
(d.) Utilities, with reference to locations, availability,
and compatibility;
Finding: Utilities are currently provided to the property.
(e.)
Screening and buffering with reference to type,
dimensions, and character;
Finding: The proposed patio addition does not meet the 25% expansion threshold
established in Chapter 166.14, Commercial Design and Development
Standards, that would require screening between the commercial and
residential uses.
(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: No change to the existing signage is proposed at this time. Any future

proposed signage shall be approved separately by a sign permit application.
(g.)
Required yards and other open space; and
Finding: The subject property is a nonconforming property, as the existing structure
encroaches into the rear setback. Board of Adjustment approval of a
variance request to bring the structure into compliance may be required.
(h.)
General compatibility with adjacent properties and
other property in the district.
Finding: Staff fmds that the proposed shared parking agreement would be
compatible. With exception of the adjacent residential development, the
surrounding properties are commercial and this site is located along a busy
commercial corridor. The parking area for the subject property and the
adjacent properties to the north and south are all interconnected. Patrons of
the La Huerta restaurant that must park in a shared parking space will have
direct and safe access to the building.

DATE: April 27, 2011
RZN 11-3804: Rezone (EAST SQUARE DEVELOPMENT, 523): Submitted by CITY OF
FAYETTEVILLE PLANNING DIVISION for property located at the NORTHWEST CORNER OF
MOUNTAIN STREET AND COLLEGE AVENUE. The property is zoned C-PZD, COMMERCIAL
PLANNED ZONING DISTRICT 05-1610 and contains approximately 1.01 acres. The request is to revoke the
PZD pursuant to 166.06(C) and rezone the subject property to DC, DOWNTOWN CORE.
Planner: Dara Sanders
BACKGROUND:
Property Description and History: The subject property consists of approximately 1.01 acres located
within the Downtown Master Plan on the block between Center Street and Mountain Street, adjacent
to College Avenue. The site is developed for a temporary parking lot and a vacant building.
Surrounding land use and zoning is depicted in Table 1.

History: In 2005, prior to the adoption of the Downtown Master Plan, the Planning Commission and
City Council approved C-PZD 05-1610 to establish zoning criteria and development rights for an 18 -
story structure to include a hotel, condominiums, retail/tenant space, conference rooms, a ballroom, a
restaurant and bar, and a 7 -story parking garage.
In 2006, the Planning Commission granted a one-year extension for the issuance of building permits
to development the site as approved to expire on December 20, 2007. The property owner did not
obtain building permits before the extended deadline, and the City Council approved a request to
permit and extension for a period of three years to expire on December 18, 2010. Construction
permits for the project were not obtained and the C-PZD approval has expired.
PZD Revocation: If an approved PZD expires the property does not automatically revert back to the
original zoning. The property is unable to be developed or subdivided until the old PZD zoning is

revoked and a new, valid zoning district is assigned. In an effort to establish a valid zoning district
on the subject property the City Planning Division has initiated the PZD revocation process
following the requirements Fayetteville Unified Development Code Chapter 166.06(C). An initial
letter was sent to the property owners on October 21, 2010 notifying them of the expired PZD,
discussing options for establishing a valid zoning district, and the intent of the City to revoke the
PZD and rezone the property if the owners did not initiate a rezoning. On April 7, 2010 the City
Planning Division sent an official PZD revocation letter to the property owner via certified mail
notifying them that the City Planning Division was proposing to revoke the PZD and rezone the
property to DC, Downtown Core. The section of the Fayetteville Unified Development Code
covering PZD revocation and copies of letters sent to the property owners are attached to this report.
Proposal: The City Planning Division proposes to rezone the subject property from C-PZD 05-1610
to DC, Downtown Core.
Public Comment: Staff has not received public comment on this request.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends forwarding RZN 11-3804 (East Square Development) to the City Council with a
recommendation for approval based on the findings stated herein.

INFRASTRUCTURE:
Streets: The site has access to Mountain Street and College Avenue. College Avenue is an
improved four lane State Highway in this location. Mountain Street is also an
improved paved two lane city street along this property frontage.
Water: Public water is available to the property. There is 6" water main along Mountain
Street and Center Street. There is an 8" main along College Avenue. Public water
main improvements may be necessary to provide adequate fire flow for a future
development.
Sewer: Sanitary sewer is available to the site. There is an 8" public main located along
College Avenue and along the alley to the west of this site. A capacity analysis of the
existing sewer mains may be necessary at the time of development.
Drainage: Standard improvements and requirements for drainage will be required for any
development. This property is not affected by the 100 -year floodplain and the
Streamside Protection Zones.
Police: Staff did not receive objections from the Police Department to this rezoning.
Fire: The Fire Department does not feel that this request will affect calls for service or
response times.
FINDINGS OF THE STAFF
1. A determination of the degree to which the proposed zoning is consistent with land use
planning objectives, principles, and policies and with land use and zoning plans.
Finding: Staff finds that the DC zoning district is consistent with the Downtown Master
Plan and the existing and surrounding land uses and infrastructure. This site is
the core of the City and the surrounding land uses and zoning districts allow for
most intense development form permitted in the Unified Development Code.
The proposed DC zoning would be consistent with the existing urban character
of Downtown Fayetteville.
2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the
rezoning is proposed.
Finding: The proposed zoning is needed at this time as the existing C-PZD zoning has
expired and the property is unable to developed in any manner, including minor
applications such as a lot split or single family residence, until the expired PZD
zoning is revoked and a new zoning district is assigned. As discussed in Finding
May 9, 2011
Planning Commission
RZN 11-3804 East Square Development
Agenda Item 4
Page 3 of 14
No. 1, the proposed zoning is justified as it is compatible with the surrounding
zoning and land uses and consistent with the City's Downtown Master Plan, and
staff finds that the DC zoning district is the most comparable established zoning
district that is most similar to the uses and intensity permitted in the C-PZD.
3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase
traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: The proposed rezone would not increase traffic congestion. While the uses
proposed in the C-PZD are listed as permitted uses in the proposed zoning
district, the maximum of 12 stories in the DC zoning district is much lower than
the 18 stories approved in the expired planned zoning district.
4. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would alter the population density and
thereby undesirably increase the load on public services including schools, water, and sewer
facilities.
Finding: Increased load on public services were taken into consideration and
recommendations from the Engineering, Fire, and Police Departments and are
included in this report. The proposed zoning change to DC should have no
discernable impact on public services.
5. If there are reasons why the proposed zoning should not be approved in view of
considerations under b (1) through (4) above, a determination as to whether the proposed
zoning is justified and/or necessitated by peculiar circumstances such as:
a. It would be impractical to use the land for any of the uses permitted under
its existing zoning classifications;
b. There are extenuating circumstances which justify the rezoning even
though there are reasons under b (1) through (4) above why the proposed
zoning is not desirable.
Finding: Not applicable. Staff recommends in favor of the request.

(L) Revocation.
(1) Causes for revocation as enforcement action. The Planning Commission may recommend to the City Council
that any PZD approval be revoked and all building or occupancy permits be voided under the following
circumstances:
(a) Building permit. If no building permit has been issued within the time allowed.
(b) Phased development schedule. If the applicant does not adhere to the phased master development plan
schedule as stated in the approved development plan.
(c) Open space and recreational facilities. If the construction and provision of all common open spaces
and public and recreational facilities which are shown on the final plan are proceeding at a substantially
slower rate than other project components.
Planning staff may report the status of each ongoing PZD at the first regular meeting of each quarter, so
that the Planning Commission is able to compare the actual development accomplished with the approved
development schedule. If the Planning Commission finds that the rate of construction of dwelling units or
other commercial or industrial structures is substantially greater than the rate at which common open spaces
and public recreational facilities have been constructed and provided, then the Planning Commission may
initiate revocation action or cease to approve any additional final plans if preceding phases have not been
finalized. The city may also issue a stop work order, or discontinue issuance of building or occupancy
permits, or revoke those previously issued.
(2) Procedures. Prior to a recommendation of revocation, notice by certified mail shall be sent to the landowner or
authorized agent giving notice of the alleged default, setting a time to appear before the Planning Commission
to show cause why steps should not be made to totally or partially revoke the PZD. The Planning Commission
recommendation shall be forwarded to the City Council for disposition as in original approvals. In the event a
PZD is revoked, the City Council shall take the appropriate action in the city clerk's office and the public
zoning record duly noted.
(3)
Effect. In the event of revocation, any completed portions of the development or those portions for which
building permits have been issued shall be treated to be a whole and effective development. After causes for
revocation or enforcement have been corrected, the City Council shall expunge such record as established above
and shall authorize continued issuance of building permits.
