FROM: Sara Edwards,Ron Petrie P.E.
DATE: July 5,2001
Project: LSD 01-19.00: Large Scale Development (Hometown Developments, pp 524)
was submitted by Robert Schmitt of Hometown Developments for property located on the
southwest corner of Fletcher Avenue & Rodgers Drive. The property is zoned R-2, Medium
Density Residential and contains approximately 0.50 acres with seven dwelling units proposed.
Findings: This property was before the Planning Commission on April 23, 2001 with a
request to not provide the required street frontage for lots in an R-2 zone. Right-of-way for
Center Street exists directly in front of this property and runs parallel with Fletcher Street. This
waiver was approved subject to the project being processed as a large scale development. The
applicant is proposing to provide seven units with four bedrooms each. There is property zoned
R-2 to the east, west and south of this project. If this project is not approved, the applicant is
requesting to build Center Street which would require several waivers to be approved by the
Planning Commission(AD 01-28).
Recommendation: Staff recommends denial of the proposed large scale development that
has seven units proposed. Staff would support the project if it is limited to six units as
conditioned by the Planning Commission action AD 01-11.00.
Conditions of Approval:
1. The applicant shall remove the seventh unit and the associated parking to be in
compliance with the Administrative Item (ADO1-11) conditions of approval that allowed
this development to proceed without street frontage. See the attached conditions of
approval and minutes from the Planning Commission approval ofAD 01-11.
2. Planning Commission determination of offsite improvements to Fletcher Avenue. A
recent traffic count has determined that 834 vehicles per day presently use Fletcher
Avenue. This development is projected to add 94 vehicles per day. The staff
recommendation is that the portion of Fletcher Avenue adjacent to the Center Street
Frontage be widened to 14'from centerline with curb &gutter.
3. All Dumpsters and utility equipment shall be screened.

DATE: July 5, 2001
SUBJECT: Hometown Development (LSD 01-19.00)
Sanitary Sewer Capacity on Mount Sequoyah
When this project was presented to the Subdivision Committee on June 28, 2001, a nearby
property owner voiced concerns about the existing sanitary sewer system on Mount Sequoyah.
The Subdivision Committee requested that the Engineering Division provide additional
information regarding the sewer system in this area and determine the effects of this proposed
development on this portion of the system.
A map is attached that shows the existing sanitary sewer system on Mount Seqouyah with the
proposed development site shown. Also shown on the map are two different sewer main
branches that are labeled Lateral No. I and Lateral No. 2. The proposed development would
have to extend a sewer main from Lateral No. 2 due to the topography. This connection would
either be from the existing sewer main shown on Fletcher Avenue or from Olive Avenue. The
sewer lines that comprise Lateral No. 2 are a minimum of eight inches (8") in diameter.
According to the Water/Sewer Superintendent,there have been no complaints of overflows on
this lateral. This existing line would easily have the capacity to serve this development.
The portion of the sewer system labeled Lateral No. 1 is comprised of six inch(6") diameter
sewer pipes in which several complaints have been received by the Water/Sewer Superintendent
of overflows primarily due to stormwater infiltration during heavy rainfalls. As stated
previously, this development could not connect to this portion of the system due to the
topography. According to the Capital Improvements Program,this portion of the system is
scheduled for replacement and/or improvements in the year 2002. Currently there is
$405,000.00 budgeted this year and $1,995,000.00 budgeted next year for this project.
If actual flow data and capacity studies are needed by the Planning Commission, additional time
would have to be provided in order to provide the calculations. It is the Engineering Division's
and Water/Sewer Superintendent's opinion that Lateral No. 2 has sufficient capacity for this
development.

DATE: April 23, 2001
SUBJECT: Sight distance for new development(Mr. Brian Dandy) at the SW corner
of Rodgers Dr. and Lighton Trail
1 have checked the above location for adequate sight distance. I exited the property from the existing
gravel drive to check the sight distance. The gravel drive and the 24'drive shown west of it would both
have adequate sight distance if the vegetation to the east is trimmed back a couple of feet. Both Rodgers
Dr. and Lighton Trail have a stop sign for west bound traffic coming down the hill towards this proposed
drive. Sight distance to the west is unobscured. The drive should be located as far to the west as is
practical to serve the property. If I can help you any further,please let me know.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Subdivision Committee
COPY: Sara Edwards, Planning
FROM: Kim J. Hesse, Landscape Administrator
DATE: June 14, 2001
This memo addresses the tree preservation plan for Hometown Developments. After
consultation with the City Attorney's office, it is apparent that either the applicant can be
fined for violating the tree preservation ordinance by removing existing trees prior to
development review or the clause pertaining to prior tree removal may apply. Public
sentiment has appeared to favor requiring additional replacement versus minimal fines.
In this event I recommend that additional replacement be required. This property is
zoned R-2 and will require a 30% canopy replacement required by the "prior tree
removal" clause. This will equate to 8 large replacement trees which will require a total
of 3200 square feet of planting space (open land not in utility easements, rights-of-way,
or the like) to ensure proper growing space.

To Whom It May Concern:
I'm not necessarily opposed to higher density zoning in town, but if that new multiplex is built,the
developer should pay the real infrastructure cost of the complex.I mean both the obvious costs and the
hidden costs,and maybe even "civic duty" costs.Instead of requiring the developer to put 20 yards of
sidewalk in front of the property,the city should be forcing him to go above and beyond—to pay for
sidewalk installation from the curve on Fletcher to the Rodgers intersection, or to pay the city for capital
improvements to that naked patch of grass across the street that we call a park.
My residence is on a stretch of Rodgers that City Planning and time have forgotten,even though these
houses have stood for 50 years.My neighbors and I don't even have the benefit of a sewer main under our
street, so we need to own and maintain underground sewage tanks and lift station pumps to push our waste
uphill to the sewer line on Lighton Trail. Our forgotten stretch suffers without any sidewalk of footpath,
and the street is so narrow it makes walking downright hazardous. Further east on our dead-end drive,the
Southern Heights subdivision enjoys sewer lines,sidewalks,and safe street widths,and of course these
residents must drive back and forth to town right past our houses,on our substandard stretch of road.
Fletcher and Summit are just as bad—the curve on Fletcher being the worst,by far,as cars from further up
Mt. Sequoyah roll down at unsafe speeds.It is flat out crazy to walk or ride a bike around that curve as it is,
and if we allow another 50 cars or so to use these residential streets,we are flirting with disaster.
In my opinion, if the city allows this development,and others like it,we should be forcing the developers to
offset the impact with real capital infrastructure improvements.I say,when they install sewer service for
the multiplex,make them split the cost of a sewer main that picks up the forgotten section of Rodgers.
Make them pay for sidewalks on Fletcher,on Rodgers,and around the park. Make them widen the streets
on Fletcher, Summit,and Rodgers,especially on the two hazardous,blind corners where I see so many near
misses.Make them buy playground equipment for the park across the street. Force them to commit to
funding real infrastructure improvements in the immediate impact zone of this development.And if they
refuse,deny or retract the permit,rezone the property,and send them packing.
We toss around the phrase"quality of life"so often now that is has become cliche.But here we have a
living,breathing example of a real quality of life issue,we have an opportunity to pull the phrase into
having real meaning again. And this is what it means:if this development improves the quality of daily life
for my neighbors and me,then I am not opposed to it.But if this multiplex goes up,and there are no
tangible benefits to the immediate surrounding neighborhood,then I am wholeheartedly against it.

PLANNING DIVISION CORRESPONDENCE
TO: Fayetteville Planning Commission
FROM: Sara Edwards,Associate Planner
THRU: Tim Conklin, City Planner
DATE: April 19, 2001
AD 01-11.00: Administrative Item (Dandy, pp 524) was submitted by Brian Dandy and Robert
Schmitt for property located on lots 1,2, & 3 of City Addition. The property is zoned R-2,
Medium Density Residential. The request is to build multi-family units on two lots without
street frontage.
Findings: The applicant is requesting a waiver of the requirement that all new structures be
located on a lot which has frontage on a public street. Recently, a property line adjustment has
been approved for this property which decreased the number of lots from three to two. Each lot is
approximately .5 acres. Currently, the property has frontage on undeveloped city owned right-of-
way for the extension of Center Street. The right-of-way for Center Street in this location runs
parallel to Fletcher Street. At this time staff feels that the both the topography and the location of
the intersection prohibit the construction of Center Street in this location.
Recommendation: Approval subject to the Planning Commission finding that the conditions
below have been met.
Conditions to Address/Discuss:
1. In order to grant the requested waiver the Planning Commission must make findings with
regard to the following:
The property owner shall make safe and convenient access for fire protection and
sanitation vehicles.
All structures shall be located on lots as to provide safe, convenient access for servicing,
fire protection, and required off-street parking.
2. The density shall be limited to six units per lot.. The applicant is proposing to construct one
six-plex on each lot. The density allowed in an R-2 zone is twenty four units per acre by right.
This equals approximately 12 units per lot.
3. Each lot shall be required to go through the large scale development process. Any approval
with regard to a variance for street frontage shall not be considered an approval of site design.
