RZN 12-4108: Rezone (4847 W. WEDINGTON DR./BANK OF WYNNE, 438): Submitted by BATES
AND ASSOCIATES for property located at 4847 WEST WEDINGTON DRIVE. The property is zoned R-
PZD, RESIDENTIAL PLANNED ZONING DISTRICT (R-PZD 07-2576 WOODSTOCK) and contains
approximately 31.68 acres. The request is to rezone the property to CS, COMMUNITY SERVICES and RSF-
4, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY, 4 UNITS PER ACRE.
Andrew Garner, Senior Planner, gave the staff report. He discussed that because this is an expired PZD,
the City Attorney advised staff and the planning commission to recommend a zoning district if they were
not comfortable with the applicant's proposal. He indicated that staff does not feel comfortable with the
applicant's request and because it is an expired PZD, would recommend it revert back to the zoning that
was in place prior to the PZD, R -A, Residential Agricultural.
Geoff Bates, applicant's representative, discussed the traffic on Wedington and that it was not feasible to
have residential on Wedington. They feel like their proposal would be best.
Public Comment:
Misty Rogers, neighbor to the south of this site. She discussed non-residential services in this area are
adequate. She asked about the definition of single family residence, where the entrance to the single
family area would be, plans for a stoplight, what are the plans for the existing treeline, and would this
allow the same as the previous Woodstock development.
Garner addressed Ms. Rogers questions, discussing that most of the issues brought up would be related
to a future development, and are not known at this time.
Commissioner Cook asked about the previous Woodstock PZD and CS zoning.
Garner explained the existing Woodstock plan versus the CS zoning, and the recent change in the future
land use plan. If the Woodstock PZD were to come through again at this time, staff may not be supportive
of it because of the change in the land use plan.
Commissioner Honchell asked about legal issues of this piece of property being brought back all the
way to R -A and future rezoning requests.
Kit Williams, City Attorney, discussed that there should not be legal issues as a property owner could
request another rezoning from R -A if they wish. However something needs to be done to establish a
property zoning on this property.
Motion:
Commissioner Chesser made a motion to forward RZN 12-4108 with recommendation for R -A, Residential
Agricultural zoning. Commissioner Bunch seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed with a
vote of 7-1-0 (commissioner Hoskins voting `no').

R-PZD 12-4079: Residential Planned Zoning District (N.W. CORNER OF W. CLEVELAND ST. &
HALL AVE./PROJECT CLEVELAND, 443): Submitted by MCCLELLAND CONSULTING
ENGINEERS, INC. for property located at the NORTHWEST CORNER OF WEST CLEVELAND STREET
AND HALL AVENUE. The property is zoned RSF-4, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY, 4 UNITS PER
ACRE and RMF -40, RESIDENTIAL MULTI FAMILY, 40 UNITS PER ACRE, and contains approximately
2.71 acres. The request is for zoning, land use and large scale development approval for a Residential
Planned Zoning District with 122 multi -family dwellings.
Jesse Fulcher, current planner, read the staff report.
Seth Mims, applicant, stated that they were trying to create a walkable, urban development, designed to meet
the goals of City Plan 2030. The project was aimed at collegiate housing for university workers and students.
Most of the residents will walk or bike due to the proximity to campus, and due to the cost to park in another
location on campus. The project has been modified greatly since the first submittal, and we have added in a
pocket park and tree preservation areas that will be open to the public. We will use low impact development
standards in the landscaped areas. The second traffic study that was just completed confirmed the findings of
the first study. We will be installing 10' cross -walks at the intersections and included lights in the cross -walks
for added visibility. We feel that this project provides an appropriate transition between the university and the
neighborhood. The university is growing and new housing needs to be provided. This will also get students
out of the existing neighborhoods, and reduce carbon emissions by reducing vehicle trips from those
neighborhoods. The project will be LEED certified and will be safe housing, with secure parking in a
traditional town form.
Marty Matlock, neighbor, commended the developers for working with the community, but there are three
main concerns; 1) safety at the street intersections with so many elementary students and existing problems
with Cleveland Street; 2) the scale of the building is too much, there is already a transition provided by the
existing apartment complex; and 3) they aren't providing an appropriate transition between land uses.
Kenneth Garner, neighbor, stated that he owns 6 acres behind the houses on Hall Avenue. The addition of
this development to the housing that will be provided in Reid and Hotz Halls when they are converted back
into student housing, will ruin my quality of life.
Maria Williams, neighbor, stated that more student housing isn't needed, and that there is already a transition
provided by the existing apartment complex. Students won't have to drive to school, but they will drive to
other locations.
Janet McCullum, neighbor, stated that she doesn't see how raised intersections will help; they don't work on
Block Street. How will emergency responders address this much density. There are only 421 parking spaces
for 450 beds. On street parking shouldn't be allowed and overflow parking will end up on the elementary
school property. There will also be more wrecks at Hall and Wedington, because you can't see west very well.
Susan Gardner, neighbor, stated that she was opposed to the development; concerned with safety of
pedestrians and smokers from campus. The 450 students that will live in the development will create too
much traffic and the proposed street improvements will not help.
Commissioner Chesser asked about the bedroom count per unit.
Mims stated that there will be a mixture of bedroom counts.
Commission Chesser asked if the traffic study looked at the times of trips.

Mims stated that the study did evaluate times throughout the day, including peak AM, peak school PM and
peak PM times.
Fulcher clarified where the level of service was being reduced.
Commission Chesser stated that he lives in the neighborhood and will be walking a child to the elementary
school as well. The on street parking will increase safety for pedestrians and reduce vehicular speeds.
Supports the building design.
Commissioner Honchell asked about the classification of Razorback Road.
Chris Brown, City Engineer, stated that it is state HWY 112 up to Maple Street, and is a local street from
there to Cleveland.
Commission Honchell noted that it was a nice project and complimentary to future expansion in the area.
Commissioner Winston asked about residents using the school property to park.
Fulcher stated that the school was private property.
Commission Winston asked about the amount of parking spaces.
Mims described the parking spaces, scooter and bike spaces that will be provided.
Fulcher read over the parking requirements for multi -family development and stated that this proposal was
well within code requirements.
Commission Winston stated that the project was appropriate, with increased density around the university,
and that the street improvements will help with existing and projected traffic conditions.
Commission Chesser discussed how the increased density, on -street parking, and street improvements will
improve safety and reduce speeds.
Commission Cook stated that the pedestrian and street improvements were good, and the climbing lane will
be a benefit. The changes to the building height and size are an improvement. The existing zoning of the site
is odd in this location. Hopefully, future multi -family development will not extend further beyond this site.
The proposal is consistent with the future land use plan.
Motion:
Commissioner Honchell made a motion to forward R-PZD 12-4079 to the City Council with a
recommendation for approval finding in favor of recommendations 1, 2, and 3, and all other conditions.
Commissioner Hoskins seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed with a vote of 7-1-0
(Commissioner Pennington voting 'no' and Commission Cabe absent).
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:00 PM.

ADM 12-4114: Administrative Item (4170 W. MARTIN LUTHER KING BLVD./MONTEZ,
595): Submitted by RAYMOND MONTEZ for property located at 4170 WEST MARTIN LUTHER
KING BOULEVARD. The property is zoned R -O, RESIDENTIAL OFFICE and contains
approximately 3.40 acres. The request is to modify CUP 06-2284 to allow an interior expansion to
the existing restaurant space. Planner: Jesse Fulcher
BACKGROUND
May 14, 2012 Planning Commission Meeting: This item was tabled at the May 14, 2012 Planning
Commission meeting because of concerns from an adjacent property owner to the north. The
property to the north objected to the applicant's request to place an outdoor deck adjacent to their
shared driveway and approximately 600 feet to the south of their residence. Changes in this staff
report from the May 14th meeting to this meeting are shown in strikeout and underline
Property Description and background: The subject property is located at 4170 W. Martin Luther
King Boulevard (HWY 62) and is zoned R -O, Residential Office.
In December 2004, the owner of the property requested to rezone the property from R -A to C-1 in
anticipation of developing the property for retail use. Planning staff recommended denial of the
proposal suggesting instead a zoning of R -O. The Planning Commission recommended and the City
Council made the policy decision to rezone the property to R -O.
On August 14, 2006, the Planning Commission considered and denied a second request to rezone the
property C-1. The property owner's reason for the second request was in response to the several
requests from retail businesses and restaurants to locate in this development. The Planning
Commission raised concerns with rezoning the property to C-1 but did suggest that the applicant
apply for a conditional use permit for restaurant so that items such as lighting, refuse service, noise,
and hours of operation could be addressed.
In October 2006 the Planning Commission approved a conditional use permit to allow an eating
place (Use Unit 13) to occupy approximately 2,000 square feet of the overall 22,725 square feet

Proposal: A new business is moving into the two tenant spaces previously approved for restaurant
use. Approval for a change in business is not required. Tenant space '2' (see attached site plan) is
predominantly kitchen and back of house space and tenant space '1' has seating for approximately 60
customers. The owners request is to allow an approximately 20' x 1d' outdoor seating arca to be
constructed on the south side of the building, adjacent to Martin Luther King Boulevard. Because of
input from the Planning Commission and an adjacent property owner at the May 14, 2012 Planning
Commission meeting, the applicant has withdrawn their request for an outdoor deck for the
restaurant, and modified their request to allow for an interior expansion of the restaurant into tenant
space '3'. The expansion would be approximately 1,125 square feet, for a total of approximately
3,225 square feet of restaurant. A site plan showing the proposed restaurant area is attached.
The applicant originally requested approval to expand into an addition 1,000 square foot tenant
space, in addition to the outdoor seating. However, that request has been removed. The owner may
Public Comment: Staff required that the applicant notify adjacent property owners and post a public
notice sign. Staff has not received any public comment. At the May 14, 2012 Planning Commission
meeting an adjacent property owner to the north of the subject development objected to the outdoor
deck. They have also submitted email comments which are attached to this report.

Hi Cindy,
Steve and I are very pleased that Mr. Montez has decided not to pursue his plan for outdoor seating. In response to
your query about any concerns, mine are these:
1. Continuing to expand the commercial footprint of an RO complex will set a precedent for more of the same.
2. A larger commercial enterprise will mean increased traffic in an out of that complex and down our driveway.
(A note: The speed limit on MLK is 55mph in front of Calypso Crossing. We find it is often dangerous to turn into
and out of our driveway. An increased number of vehicles using that complex will exacerbate this situation.)
3. The possibility for an establishment that is more bar and less restaurant (see advertisement included in this e-
mail) may be problematic.
Thank you so much for communicating this news to us and for asking us about our concerns. If you could see that
they are shared with the committee and the planner, that would be great.
Best regards,
Gretchen Wilkes

Hi Steve,
Thank you for your comments and thoughts on this project. Mr. Montez has requested a change to his CUP.
He is pulling the request for a deck and is going to request a expansion inside. Do you still want me to hand
out these letters to Planning Commission? Do you need
to modify your concerns before I direct them to the planner?
Thank you!

Proposal: The request is for approval of the current design, which shifts parking deck, roof deck, and
unit types without increasing the overall height of the project beyond that already approved under the
conditions of approval of LSD 11-3977, 12-01-12.
Recommendation: Finding that the proposal does not substantially change the buld, mass, or
building height of the previously approved development, staff recommends approval of ADM 12-
