BACKGROUND 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. In 2005, 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 an 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. 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 of the 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, 2011 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. DISCUSSION On May 9, 2011 the Planning Commission forwarded this item to the City Council with a recommendation for approval with a vote of 8-0-0. BUDGETIMPACT None. ORDINANCE NO.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: Required YES Date: May 9, 2011 ❑ Tabled x Forwarded ❑ Denied Motion: Chesser Second: Kennedy Vote: 8-0-0 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Required YES ❑ Approved ❑Denied Date: CITY PLAN 2025 FUTURE LAND USE PLAN: City Plan 2025 Future Land Use Plan designates this site as the Downtown Master Plan Area. A primary guiding policy of the Downtown Master Plan is to achieve a mixture of asses in a highly walkable environment with an urban fabric that allows for downtown living and creates a series of intimate public spaces and streetscapes. 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
