TO: Fayetteville Planning Commission Members
THRU: Tim Conklin, City Planner,A.I.C.P. (
FROM: Sara Edwards,Associate Planner
DATE: May 25,2002
Project: ADM 02-15.00: Administrative Item (Varvil, pp 524)was submitted by Nancy
Varvil for property located at 531 E. Rock Street. The property is zoned R-2, Medium Density
Residential. The request is for a partial refund of sidewalk funds put in escrow.
Findings: The applicant was assessed $4,212.00 in June of 2001 as part of building permit
for a new single family home. This was in accordance with the ordinance in effect at the time
which assessed $3.00 per square foot of sidewalk. The square footage of sidewalk required was
based on the two street frontages of the lot. Since this time the Sidewalk Ordinance has been
revised and the assessment for a single family home is $630.00. The applicant is now requesting
a refund of the fees assessed to her.
Recommendation: Refund $3,582.00, the difference between the$4,212.00 assessed and the
$630.00 required in the current ordinance to the applicant.

Subject: Ash Street
Please let the Planning Commission know that as an adjacent property owner(220/222 ASH)we are
opposed to the proposed development, Ash Acres. The integrity of our neighborhood will be
compromised with the addition of so many apartments. Just turn the corner and see what the apartments
have done to the once lovely Gregg St. As a lifelong resident of Fayetteville, I have seen too many
.'quick"apartment units go up only to be abandoned or worse yet, fall into disrepair. I urge the city
planning commission to deny the request.
Thank you for your help.

I am a member of the Woodland Association and I would like to address the
issue of trying to build 5 houses on one lot an Ash St.. This would cause
to much conjestion in such a small area. Also, our neighborhood takes pride
in the uncrowded area for single families. This is a good drawing point to
the area and keeps the value of our property what it should be.

SUBJECT: Hometown Development(LSD 02-07.00)
Center Street Construction Waiver Requests
Project: AD 01-28.00: Administrative Item (Hometown Development., pp 524)was submitted
by Glenn Carter on behalf of Hometown Developments for property located at the southwest corner of
Fletcher Avenue&Rodgers Drive. The requests are for two (2)waivers from Section 3 of the City's
Minimum Street Standards to allow the construction of Center Street adjacent to this development.
Findings: The developer has requested that this item be placed before the Planning Commission
because of the denial of the Hometown(Dandy/Schmitt) Large Scale Development(LSD 02-07.00). The
construction of Center Street adjacent to this development would create the street frontage required to
meet the UDO requirements for each tract. If Center Street was to be constructed by this developer, a
project would not require the approval of the Planning Commission to proceed if each tract was
developed separately.
Staff Recommendation: Denial of the two (2)waiver requests listed below for the following
reasons:
1. The applicant has not provided any explanation of the waiver requests and has not
provided any information to prove an undue hardship as required by ordinance.
2. The installation of Center Street and the granting of the waivers as proposed would cause
an unnecessary public safety hazard.
3. In addition to the waiver requests, a public safety hazard would be created by ending
Center Street with a 14' vertical drop.
4. The installation of Center Street as proposed would block the existing access driveway to
the adjacent residence located to the west of this property.

LEGAL DEPARTMENT
DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE
TO: Planning Commissioners
FROM: Kit Williams, City Attorney
DATE: May 13, 2002
RE: Appeals from those who paid sidewalk contribution_prior to
revision of §171.12 of the Unified Development Ordinance
The Planning Commission may soon hear appeals pursuant to the
retroactive provision of rough proportionality appeal ordinance. This was
retroactive only for individuals who paid money in lieu of construction of a
sidewalk pursuant to §171.12.
If the Planning Commission is facing such an appeal, I would invite you to
consider the revised §171.12 which states: "The City Council has determined
that the City will accept, as the roughly proportionate impact, the amount shown
below: 1. Single family house .... $630.00 .... " §171.12 A. 3. b.
Although the Planning Commission is probably not absolutely bound in a
retroactive appeal case to that figure ($630.00) for a single family house, it would
be consistent with our current law and could provide a desirable uniformity for
deciding these appeals.

RECEIVED.
MAR t 7002
March 12, 2002 PLANNING DIV.
Dear Members of the Fayetteville Planning Commission:
Please consider this to be my formal request of a refund of some of the
$4,212 "in lieu of sidewalks" fee I paid on April 16, 2001 when 1 applied for a
permit to construct a house on at 531 E. Rock Street in Fayetteville.
According to City Attorney Kit Williams, Duncan Associates (your impact
fee consultants), and my own research, fees paid to a city by residents should
be an amount "roughly proportional" to the value of the service or goods the
resident receives. I think everyone agrees that residents of this 2 bedroom, 1285
square foot house will never receive $4,212 worth of use of Fayetteville's
sidewalks.
According to the schedule of proposed impact fees for Fayetteville
recently suggested by Clancy Mullins, a single family residence would have
$809 worth of impact on Fayetteville streets. If you figure that a sidewalk costs
much less per lineal foot than a street, an appropriate sidewalk impact fee
should be less than $809.
Please determine the value of the amount of use people who live in this
house will have from use of Fayetteville's sidewalks and refund the excess
money that I have paid.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
Sincerely,
Nancy Varvil

FROM: Dawn T. Warrick, Senior Planner
THRU: Tim Conklin,A.I.C.P., City Planner
DATE: May 22, 2002
RZN 02-8.00: Rezoning (Nickell,pp 445/446) was submitted by Bob Hill of Nickle-Hill Group
on behalf of J.C. &Alma Nickell for property located at 867 N. College Avenue. The property is
zoned R-O, Residential Office and contains approximately 0.29 acres. The request is to rezone
to C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends denial of the requested rezoning based on the findings included as part
of this report.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: Required YES
O Approved O Denied
Date: May 28,2002

BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located at the southwest comer of Clebum St. and College Ave. It is at
the northeast edge of the Wilson Park Neighborhood and is within a strip of businesses which are
between College Ave. and Pollard St. The majority of these businesses are offices or clinics in
addition to a couple of retail outlets. The property being considered in this application was
developed for an auto repair business many decades ago,prior to the zoning being established as
R-O, Residential Office, which occurred in 1970 when the City adopted a new zoning map and
ordinance.. The auto repair business continued to operate as a legal non-conforming use under
the original ownership and later with a different business owner until relatively recently. When
the most recent tenant ceased to utilize the property for an automotive repair business for more
than six months, the non-conforming status of the property prevented the same type of business
from using the site.
At this time, the applicant is requesting that the property be rezoned to a C-2 designation in order
to allow for a new tenant to operate a similar auto related business on the site,making use of the -
existing building. Staff cannot recommend the requested rezoning because of the potential
detrimental impact of this type of business activity on the adjoining residential neighborhood.
This property is not conducive to high traffic volumes that can accompany auto related
businesses. The building is very close to College Ave. and visibility at the intersection of
Cleburn and College is compromised by a turn in College Ave. as well as the siting of buildings
on this and nearby lots. In addition, the City's adopted General Plan 2020 and Future Land Use
Plan have both identified appropriate areas (nodes at the intersections of higher level streets for
example) for development of commercial businesses which are designed to serve the city as a
whole and not just the immediate neighborhoods.
The history of rezoning requests in this immediate area indicates the need to maintain
compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood. Since 1970, several attempts to have been
made to have these properties zoned commercially, either C-1 or C-2, which have resulted in
withdrawn petitions, consistent opposition from residential neighbors and denials from the
Planning Commission. The following list and accompanying documentation(see attached)
reflect several historical rezoning requests on property in this general location:
June 1970 - City wide rezoning changed designation of property from Commercial to
RO,Residential Office
July 1971 - 700 Block N. College (SW Corner of Trenton & College)
Request rezoning from R-O to C-2
Staff recommendation for denial
PC voted to deny
Applicant requested appeal
No record of pursuit of appeal to City Board

Staff believes that consistency with previous Planning Division recommendations is the way to
ensure that this area maintains,compliance with the adopted policies and principles of the City.
Conditions in this area have not changed significantly since the City determined that the
appropriate uses for this area should be those allowed within the R-0 zoning district except that
there is more traffic congestion along College Ave. Traffic volume maps produced by the
Arkansas Highway& Transportation Dept. indicate 27,000 vehicle trips per day in the year 2000.
This was an increase from the 23,000 vpd reported in 1999 (no volume was listed for this
location on the 1998 map).
The applicant has provided a Bill of Assurance that would limit the uses on the subject property
to those uses permitted in the C-1 district and including automotive service and repair. A
proposed tenant has indicated a desire to utilize the building for a lube and oil/tune up type
operation, similar to the auto repair business that was previously located on this site.
Staff is concerned with the proposal due to the high traffic nature of this type of business and the
very limited amount of space on this site to accommodate a large number of vehicles. The
existing building is non-conforming and there is no formal parking lot on the site. Should
vehicles line up behind the service bays, visibility up and down College Ave. at the site as well as
at the intersection of College Ave. and Cleburn St. would be compromised.
