We are approximately 300 feet from this business. We have been open since November,2005 and I have been here since opening. I want to share with you how our relationship with Dog Days has gone since opening. We have not had any complaints regarding dog barking, excessive noise, or odor coming from Dog Days. They house approximately 30-40 dogs a day or more at this facility. We actually over the years have utilized their location to house animals for travelers while they were away for the day, as we are pet friendly. I don't foresee any concerns with having such a business next door to a hotel facility such as ours, as long as the business owner themselves carries regulations like bringing the animals in at a certain time of night. I have spoken with Ms. Melanie Chambers regarding this issue and she has regulations in place that would not hinder any need for concern of excessive noise. If I can be of any additional assistance please let me know.

I spoke with some of the neighbors and several of them are present to discuss their concerns. I would ask that we have public comment tonight. Jeff Dangeau, resident at 3284 Rom Orchard Rd.just outside the city limits spoke in opposition to the ordinance. He asked the Council to focus their attention to the report submitted by the Planning Commission staff which concluded that annexation was not a good for this area. Peggy Hart, resident of 521 E. Ash spoke on behalf of her parents Lyle and Charlene Smith who live at 3119 Rom Orchard Rd. outside the city limits. She expressed her concerns with the traffic in that area.

She stated there is no rush to annex this into the city at this point. She spoke in opposition to the ordinance. Larry Floyd, resident of 3162 Rom Orchard Rd. expressed his concerns with the traffic safety in that area. If this is annexed does that mean that sewer, sidewalks, and bike paths would be put in all the way to Highway 265? Jeremy Pate: It is not likely that all the improvements would go all the way to Highway 265 but we would look at the development and usually those types of improvements occur along the property frontage. The City only has ability to require so much in any development. Larry Floyd: In front of there that would be the only place there would be a sidewalk but it would go no where except to a pasture. It has been denied for annexation in the past. I just wanted to bring that to your attention. Terry Payton, resident of 3845 Bridgewater expressed his concerns with the annexation. He stated my idea of how that should be developed and Mr. Broyles ideas are different. Roy Rom, resident of 3098 Rom Orchard Rd. spoke in opposition to the ordinance. He stated there is no compelling reason to annex this land. Alderman Petty: Jeremy, exactly what kind of power are we given over land that is in our planning area? Jeremy Pate: We are given subdivision authority which allows the city to review a project anytime there is a subdivision of land. We are not given power over land use or the zoning in the County. That is entirely within the jurisdiction of Washington County. Alderman Ferrell: Were there any other public comments that came from citizens inside the city limits? No one came forward for public comment. Alderman Cook moved to table the ordinance to the November 17, 2009 City Council meeting. Alderman Ferrell seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed unanimously. This ordinance was Tabled to the November 17, 2009 City Council meeting. Public Hearing: Raze and Removal at 369 E. Center Street: A resolution ordering the razing and removal of a dilapidated and unsafe structure owned by Bobby E. York and located at 369 E. Center Street in the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas, and approving a budget adjustment. 113 West Mountain 72701 (479)575-8323 accessfayetteville.org TDD(Telecommunications Device for the Deaf)(479)521-1316 City Council Meeting Minutes November 3,2009 Page 5 of 11 Yolanda Fields, Community Services Director gave a brief description of the item. She referenced the pictures of the property and pointed out that the structure was in fact a safety hazard. Alderman Lewis: Did you find anything out about reusing the materials? Yolanda Fields: We did get the information from the Purchasing office on the company that did work with the Airport and we will add them to our bid list. As you can see in some of the pictures I do not believe that there would be anything reusable from this structure but we will be including them on the bid list from now on. Alderman Petty: I am looking at the picture and there are reusable pieces, especially the rocks and things that make up the foundation. I am going to support this but I would really encourage that we do a little extra homework and contact some of the non-profits here. Yolanda Fields: I will research with the City Attorney but we would be moving to do the raze and removal. As far as the City being able to give any of this to other agencies, it belongs to the property owner and I don't know what position that would put us in. City Attorney Kit Williams: That is correct. Assuming that you all determine that this is an appropriate structure, that meets the requirements for raze and removal, then our only power is to raze and remove that not to provide materials to other groups. It is our hope that the owner normally steps forward and actually does this. Most of the cases that have come before us in the last decade the owners finally stepped in and did the right thing by getting rid of the structure. If that does not happen we will bid it out to be razed and removed. It is not in our power to give away materials because this is not a structure that we are trying to buy and then give to someone else. We are getting rid of a safety hazard. Alderman Petty: So are you telling me that if it comes through and the owner doesn't step forward then we have the power to tear it down and put it in a landfill but we don't have the power to tear it down and give it to somebody who can use it? City Attorney Kit Williams: That is probably correct. We have the power to raze and remove. That is what the statute gives us the right to do. We hire a contractor to do that. He explained the contractor's responsibilities. He stated if we do not follow the state law we are not going to be entitled to that lien and we are not going to be able to get our cost back. Alderman Petty: That is disappointing that it is so restrictive. I would hope we could structure the bid in such a way that the appropriate use of the materials was required from the beginning. If the state does not allow that then we have to follow the law. Alderman Lucas: It seems strange that we can tear something down and take it to a landfill but we could not utilize the things. We can look at that in the future. City Attorney Kit Williams: The Legislature may want to take a look at that state law because we follow it exactly when it comes to this procedure. 113 West Mountain 72701 (479)575-8323 accessfayetteville.org TDD(Telecommunications Device for the Deaf)(479)521-1316 City Council Meeting Minutes November 3,2009 Page 6 of 11 Alderman Lewis: On something like this what is the point of view of the property owner? City Attorney Kit Williams referenced page 7 in the packet and stated they have been notified. Yolanda Fields: We have been working with the property owners since June and if you look at the picture we have posted signs in front of the property. They also received notification of this public hearing. Alderman Ferrell: Kit would you seek an Attorney General's opinion on this? When we are ready to impose regulations we will just jump way out there but when we are trying to do something that seems to make sense we are stepping back. I agree with Matthew. If we are going to tear this to the ground it might be worth getting an Attorney General's opinion on this and then allow us to pass local legislation. It just doesn't sound logical to me. City Attorney Kit Williams: We base everything on the state law. That is why we have done what we have in the past. I will be happy to ask the Attorney General for you. Alderman Ferrell: If that doesn't work then maybe we can go to our legislative delegation. It is worth doing right. Alderman Thiel: So you are not suggesting we hold this? Alderman Ferrell: No. Alderman Thiel: I don't know how much salvageable material you would find in an old wooden structure. I think it is problematic and I can see a lot of issues here. City Attorney Kit Williams reminded the Council the purpose of a public hearing. Alderman Gray: We are asking our attorney to find out if we can give it away. What is it that we are asking him to ask the Attorney General? Alderman Ferrell: We have had incidents like this in the past and I think we will have some more in the future. If we are going to hold a public hearing and then pass legislation authorizing the City to raze and remove it would be logical and make sense to me that we could reuse material. Alderman Gray: I agree completely. So we are asking for permission to reuse it in some way. Alderman Ferrell: Yes. Alderman Gray: That makes a lot of sense to me. Mayor Jordan opened the Public Hearine 113 West Mountain 72701 (479)575-8323 accessfayetteville.org TDD(Telecommunications Device for the Deaf)(479)521-1316 City Council Meeting Minutes November 3,2009 Page 7 of 11 Paula Marinoni, a citizen spoke on the demolition process and sorting materials safely. She expressed her concerns on lead based paint materials being reused and asbestos issues. Alderman Lewis: We bid this out to companies and that is their profession. They work with permitting. City Attorney Kit Williams: I think that is correct and the bid would be all inclusive so that they would be responsible for razing it, demolishing the building, and removing the property safely which would include any recycling they want to do. Also removal of hazardous materials would all be a part of their contract. Yolanda Fields: That's correct. Alderman Petty: Could we write the bid such that companies are required to disclose what they plan to do with the materials? Yolanda Fields: I don't see why not. Alderman Thiel moved to approve the resolution. Alderman Lewis seconded the motion. Upon roll call the resolution passed unanimously. Resolution 223-09 as recorded in the office of the City Clerk. Mayor Jordan closed the Public Hearing New Business: Waste Management Contract, Bid#09-61: A resolution awarding Bid#09-61 and approving a contract with Waste Management of Arkansas for hauling and disposal of municipal waste. David Jurgens, Utilities Director gave a brief description of the bid process. Alderman Ferrell: I certainly think it is a good idea to use a local business when we can but I have a question. The length of the contract that I am looking at is five years with a contingency to lengthen that if we need to. Are you aware of the possible development of some local technology that might help make this less expensive? David Jurgens: Yes sir I am. We work with those organizations that are trying to experiment and find better ways to do business. They all have to be approved by ADEQ for that experimental process. It is rare that one of those can get approved in less than three years and that is only after they have started pilot programs. So the likelihood of being completed and ready to be permitted prior to this five year period is pretty slim. Given the price that we have on this contract compared to the #2 bidder we are getting a good deal right now. We will continue to try any other method that we can find in order to find alternative methods of getting rid of our trash. 113 West Mountain 72701 (479)575-8323 accessfayetteville.org TDD(Telecommunications Device for the Deaf)(479)521-1316
