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 rezoning the property to Downtown General would be more consistent with the land use planning objectives,principles and polices than the existing C-2 zoning district. The Downtown General zoning district will allow for office, retail, light commercial and residential uses. A conventional zoning district such as C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial may allow some of the same types of uses, but prohibit a desired development pattern due to the large setbacks from the right-of-way(between 25'-50'). Additionally,residential uses in the C-2 zoning district are only permitted as an accessory use,restricting the use of the property to predominantly commercial use. 2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the rezoning is proposed. Finding: The subject property has been utilized as a motel since construction in the early 1950's. The current C-2 zoning designation requires that at least 51% of the structure be utilized for commercial purposes. A rezoning to Downtown General will allow the applicant to utilize the existing structures for residential or commercial uses with no restriction on the size of either use.Additionally,the buildings currently violate the C-2 district building setbacks. Rezoning the property to DG,with a 0-25' build-to zone will resolve this encumbrance. 3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase traffic danger and congestion. Finding: Based on staff findings and the Fayetteville Police Department report, the proposed rezoning will not create or appreciably increase traffic danger and congestion in the area. The property has access to College Ave., a Principal Arterial, and a public alley. Access to the site will be reviewed at the time of redevelopment. 4. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would alter the population density and thereby undesirably increase the load on public services including schools,water,and sewer facilities. Finding: Staff finds that the proposed zoning will not create undesirable impacts to public services, or a residential density that is incompatible with the surrounding area, based on a review of infrastructure, existing land uses, and the development potential of the property.The property is currently zoned C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial.The change in zoning to Downtown General will not permit uses that will adversely impact public services.

If there are reasons why the proposed zoning should not be approved in view of considerations under b (1) through (4) above, a determination as to whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or necessitated by peculiar circumstances such as: a. It would be impractical to use the land for any of the uses permitted under its existing zoning classifications; b. There are extenuating circumstances which justify the rezoning even though there are reasons under b (1) through (4) above why the proposed zoning is not desirable.

Rogers, AR 72758 May 15, 2012 City of Fayetteville Planning Commission Board Members 125 W. Mountain St. Fayetteville, AR 72701 Dear Planning Committee Board Members On behalf of Community Development Partners LLC I would like to thank you for your time and ask for consideration in rezoning parcel 765-08940-00 also referred to as 521 N. College Fayetteville, AR 72701. This property is currently home to the Twin Arch Motel, an 11 unit motel complex that in not in working status. Community Development Partners LLC has placed a buy offer with the current owner, which was accepted, contingent on successful rezoning of the parcel through the Fayetteville City Planning Commission. The current owner of the property is Grace M. Warren who currently resides in California. Mrs. Warren and her late husband had successfully operated the Twin Arch Motel since purchase in 1985. The current zoning status for this parcel is C-2 Commercial Thoroughfare. Community Development Partners LLC is requesting a rezoning status of DG Downtown General in order to re -develop the property into a 9 unit studio apartment complex amid at serving graduate level student and young business professionals. The current surrounding properties are comprised of small businesses to the north, south and west as well as multi -family units to the east. The appearance of the property, from its' current state, will be improved with landscaping and basic visual improvements. Traffic to and from the subject property will not be dramatically altered; parking for automobiles will be available for future tenants. Signage for the proposed complex will not change drastically from the current signage today and will comply with city code requirements. All current utilities lines at the subject property will not altered and can support tenant usage as they have for many years prior. We believe that the proposed rezoning for the subject parcel will fit well with in the Fayetteville City Master Plan as all properties to the south have been rezoned to DG Downtown General. The use of the land and property for this parcel for studio apartments, we believe, will promote stable living environments and aid in further economic development along the College Avenue/71B corridor. We would like to request that, if deemed acceptable by the Committee, rezoning take place as soon as possible in order to close on the sale of the parcel so that Community Development Partners LLC may begin re -development and construction processes. The current C-2 zoning does not appear to be the future direction of the city. We are excited and honored to be part of the growth happening in Fayetteville. Sincerely, Garrison Roddey Community Development Partners LLC.
