(UFAB). The purpose of the UFAB is to advise the City
Council on urban forestry and arboricultural related is-
_ _r sues. The committee meets monthly and is comprised
of seven members: four citizens at large seats and one
representative each from the land development com-
munity, tree service community and the University of
Arkansas.

PROJECT TYPE
SECTION 2 WILL HELP YOU DETERMINE THE TYPE OF APPLICATION
REQUIRED FOR YOUR DEVELOPMENT PROJECT.
WHAT TYPE OF PROJECT ARE YOU DEVELOPING?
The City's Tree Preservation and Protection ordinance requires development plans be reviewed by the urban
forester for certain types of projects.
SMALL SITE IMPROVEMENT PLAN (SIP)
A Small Site Improvement Plan review is required for a non-residential, mixed-use or multi-family develop-
ment on a site that is less than one acre. The following developments must be processed in accordance with
the requirements for a Small Site Improvement Plan : a) A development that is excluded from large scale de-
velopment review but requires review by multiple City divisions, b) The construction of more than one single-
family residence on one lot within a zoning district other than a single family zoning district.
LARGE SITE IMPROVEMENT PLAN ( LSIP )
A Large Site Improvement Plan review is intended for large scale developments that are located within a
zoning district that permits administrative approval. A Large Site Improvement Plan allows for administrative
approval for virtually any sized property.
0 1"AM um J 11111112%L me
A Preliminary Plat review occurs when a property is to be subdivided into more than four lots, or when a
parent or resulting tract has been subdivided three or more times and is proposed to be further subdivided.
A preliminary plat establishes the preliminary location of all lot lines, streets, and utility infrastructure. This
allows the applicant to request construction plan approval and to install all required improvements.
ZONINGPLANNED
A Planned Zoning District is a zoning district that allows for comprehensively planned developments to go
through development and zoning review as a simultaneous process.
PG 3
•
CONCURRENT PLAT C(�CP)
A Concurrent Plat combines the preliminary and final plat into one step. A concurrent plat is permitted when
a property is to be subdivided into more than four lots, or when a parent or resulting tract has been subdi-
vided three or more times and is proposed to be further subdivided, and the existing and new parcels do not
require construction of new infrastructure.
DEVELOPMENTLARGE SCALE
A Large Scale Development is generally intended for, but not limited to, non-residential, mixed use, or
multi-family developments on sites of one acre or greater in size, or the construction of a multi-family build-
ing or buildings with 24 units where the subdivision of land is not proposed.
HILLTOPHILLSIDE • •
The Hillside/Hilltop Overlay District is delineated via a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) analysis of
steep slopes and specific hillside geologic and soil conditions. Design guidelines for the HHOD include
precise standards for road design, grading ordinance requirements and tree preservation. The tree preser-
vation regulations in the HHOD require a minimum preservation of existing tree canopy on all lots.
FINAL PLAT ( FPL)
The Final Plat is a complete and exact subdivision plat, prepared for official recording as required by state
law, to define property boundaries, proposed streets and other improvements.

WHEN DOES THE 3-YEAR TIME PERIOD START AND END?
The 3-year time period begins after the project has been inspected and the Certificate
of Occupancy has been approved. At the end of the 3-year period, the urban foresters
will inspect the site for 90 percent survival rate of all trees installed on-site. If/when
the project passes the three year maintenance inspection, the surety will be released.
If the project does not pass inspection after the three year time period, the urban for-
esters will request tree replacements and inspect after installation; at that point, the
surety will be released. If less than 90 percent of the trees have survived, the devel-
oper has 60 days, after being made aware by the urban forester, to replace the dead
trees.
