This street is only a couple of blocks long and runs directly behind the Kappa Sigma house from theTJmversity to the cemetery. The only housing on this street are the apartments on 730 West Williams, which are owned and occupied by Kappa Sigma. Therefore, all residents are in full support of the name change. The name Whiteside would recognize Charlie B. Whiteside III, who is an University of Arkansas alumnus and benefactor, who has been instrumental in the rebuilding the Kappa Sigma house. This house will be dedicated in October before the Homecoming football game. It would be our hope that the street name could be announced at that time. I would sincerely appreciate you forwarding this request to the proper city officials. We will be happy to meet with them and any interested parties.

The section runs from University behind the Kappa Sigma house and in front of the Kappa Sigma apartments. The only residents living on this section are members of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity -all of whom support the name change In recognition of this historic area and realizing that the Kappa Sigma Fraternity is an important part of that history, and in recognition of our neighbor, the historic Evergreen Cemetery, and its board of directors and in recognition of the history of Williams Street, we have agreed to the following: 1. To do all in our power to keep the street in a condition that will serve as a source of pride for the men of Kappa Sigma and to Charlie B. Whiteside III, for whom we would like to honor with the renaming of tins street. 2. To enter in an informal neighborly partnership with the board of the historic Evergreen Cemetery and to adopt the cemetery as an ongoing community project. This would involve helping to watch out for vandalism and mappropnate behavior in the cemetery, and to report such activity to the police and to the board. We further agree to work with, and under the direction of the board on an annual project in the cemetery. 3. If the remalnjing portion of Williams Street is ever in jeopardy, we will work with the community in order to preserve it. Thank you for working with us.
