Subject: Resolution to accept the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board
recommendation to accept a waiver of the Park Land Dedication
Ordianance and accept a combination of land and park development for
Laureate Fields Subdivsion (Schlegel Property); approval of a Cost Share
Agreement with Paradigm Development; and a waiver of the Competitive
Bidding Process.
RECOMMENDATION
Parks and Recreation Staff recommends accepting the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board
recornmendation to accept a combination land and park development for Laureate Fields
Subdivision Schlegel Property; acceptance of the Cost Share Agreement with Paradigm
Development and a waiver of the Competitive Bidding Process for the design and construction of
the Laureate Fields Subdivision neighborhood park.
BACKGROUND
The Laureate Fields Subdivision, also known as the Schlegel property is located on Salem Road,
west of Deane Soloman Road and the Springwoods Development. The owner is Tracy Hoskins of
Paradigm Development and the engineering firm is Milholland Company. The development
contains 176 single family units on 73.39 acres. The requirement for park land is 4.22 acres and
money in lieu is $97,560. The Park Land Dedication Ordinance states if a major development is
over 40 acres or 100 units, the requirement is land.
':..However, if the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board determines that a neighborhood
park is not feasible or advisable, it may recommend to the City Council that a cash
contribution pursuant to our ordinance be accepted in lieu of land dedication. The City
Council will either accept the recommendation for a cash contribution or return the
subdivision plat to the Parks Board with instructions or further study." (Unified
Development Ordinance No. 166.03K)
Parks and Recreation Staff met with the owner and Milholland Company to evaluate the site. The
Parks and Recreation Master Plan indicates a need for a neighborhood park in this area, as no
parks are located within a half -mile of this development.
The development was approved by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB) on June 7,
2004 and approved again on August 10, 2004 with this final proposal.
City Council Meeting of September 7, 2004
Agenda Item Number
DISCUSSION
Tracy Hoskins proposes to provide 3.26 acres for a neighborhood park development for the
Laureate Fields Subdivision. As part of this agreement, the developer will design and construct
the park to the City of Fayetteville Park Standards and shall include amenities found within a
neighborhood park. All designs shall be reviewed and approved by Parks and Recreation Staff
and the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. All construction documents and practices shall be
reviewed by Parks and Recreation Staff prior to start of construction, during construction and
followed by a final approval.
All improvements shall total at least the money in lieu of requirement which is approximately
$22,200. The developer, Tracy Hoskins has stated he would expend funds to the maximum
necessary to improve the park to the standards of a typically improved Fayetteville neighborhood
park. This cost may exceed $150,000. All improvements by the developer shall be completed one
year after issuance of the final plat. In addition, the Neig borhood's Property Owner's
Association shall maintain the neighborhood park forars from the date of issuance of the
final plat. A Cost Share Agreement between the City of Fayetteville and Paradigm Development
has been created and outlines the articles above. Please see attached.
To allow Paradigm Development to design and construct the neighborhood park in conjunction
with the design and development of Laureate Fields Subdivision, Parks and Recreation Staff
request waiving the competitive bid process.
BUDGET IMPACT
As outlined in the attached Cost Share Agreement, the City will make available the remaining
money in lieu fees, approximately $22,200, for the development of the Laureate Fields
Neighborhood Park. Although this money will never be received or paid out of the Northwest
Park Quadrant account, it will be expended in the development of amenities at the neighborhood
park as outlined in the agreement.

be completed one year after issuance of
the final plat POA will maintain the
neighborhood park.
Same as above
Parks Master Plan shows this area in
need of a neighborhood park. Park would
serve this development and proposed
developments in the surrounding area.
If a combination of money and land is
recommended by PRAB, this project will
require a waiver to Ordinance 59.05 (K)
because it contains more than 100
housing units and is over 40 acres.
Ohman stated that Parks will work with the developer on design and
approval of design must be granted by Parks.
Tracy Hoskins stated his concern is to have the park built immediately.
In effort to do this he is proposing to reduce the size of the park to
approximately 3 acres and use the balance (money in lieu) for the
development of the park. The developer will probably construct the
park at the same time as the subdivision.
Mauritson asked if he understood correctly that the park will be
reduced by an acre and the balance of the fees will be applied to park
development.
Tracy Hoskins affirmed yes. Hoskins added that he anticipates
spending more than the remaining approximately $28,000 for
development and he feels this will be good for the City and the
developer.
Mauritson added that he doesn't want to be surprised with having to
finish the park development if the balance doesn't go very far.
MOTION:
Hill moved to accept a combination of parkland and Money in
Lieu (park development) to satisfy the Park Land Dedication
Ordinance for the proposed development.
Pawlik Holmes seconded the motion.

THRU: Dawn Warrick, A.I.C.P., Zoning & Development Administrator
DATE: August 18, 2004
PPL 04-1141: Preliminary Plat (SCHLEGEL SUBDIVISION): Submitted by MEL
MILHOLLAND for property located at THE SW CORNER OF DEANE SOLOMON AND
SALEM. The property is zoned RSF-4, SINGLE FAMILY - 4 UNITS/ACRE and contains
approximately 73.39 acres. The request is to approve a residential subdivision with 176 single
family lots proposed.
Property Owner: TRACY K. & LORI C. HOSKINS Planner: JEREMY PATE
Findings:
Property Characteristics: The subject property is 73 39 acres of vacant property located west of
Deane Solomon Road and south of W. Salem Road. Single family residences are located north of
the subject property along W. Salem Road Areas to the west and south are vacant. Crystal
Springs Subdivision, Phase III is under construction south of the subject property. Lot #4 of
springwoods C-PZD is adjacent to the east, the intervening property between Deane Solomon
Road and the Schlegel site. The property's only existing frontage is 271 feet along W. Salem
Road, to the north. Gypsum Dr., a Collector Street, is shown on the Master Street Plan as an east
and west connection through the property.
Proposal:
The applicant proposes a residential subdivision containing approximately 176 lots on 73.39
acres within an RSF-4 zoning district. A street stub -out is proposed to the west and to the east, as
well as a connection to the south, which is currently under construction as part of Crystal Springs
III S/D. The primary entrance from the north is from W. Salem Road, currently an unimproved
street. The applicant will be required to improve W. Salem Road frontage, as well as widen and
pave W. Salem Road a minimum width of 20 feet to Deane Solomon Road.
The applicant and staff have had ongoing meetings to determine a suitable solution to issues of
concern surrounding this subdivision, primarily the existence of a Collector Street on the Master
Street Plan running east and west and the best, suitable location of the neighborhood park.
Elements of the forwarded site plan reflect the Parks and Recreation Board recommendation to
work with the developer in coordinating a smaller park, to be constructed at the cost of the
developer. The subdivision also utilizes a round -a -bout feature at its eastern entry, indicated by
the applicant to be located directly across from the approved entry to springwoods Lot #5
entrance, with one intervening property. The preliminary plat does contain a street designated as
K: IReports120041PC Reports108-23-041PPL 04-1141 (SCHLEGEL SURD/V/S/ON).doc
• )•
a Collector Street, with 70 feet of right-of-way, stubbing out to the west for future connectivity,
as well as the recommendation by the Parks and Recreation Board. The Collector Street runs east
and west, from the round -a -bout south on Longfellow Parkway, then west on Thoreau Fare.
Background: An annexation and rezoning request to RSF-4 was approved by City Council for
the 73.39 acres in April of 2004. As part of the annexation and rezoning request, the major
concerns cited were fire response time (ameloriated with the current construction of Fire Station
#7), wastewater system capacity (the study was released and indicated capacity is available for
this development), and traffic/access. As stated at the time, without improvements to W. Salem
Road to the north, a narrow gravel road, and additional alternate means of access, the proposed
number of units would create an appreciable increase in traffic danger and congestion in this
location.
The Subdivision Committee voted to table this item at its regular meeting of July 30, 2004.
Concerns cited included connectivity, the Master Street Plan (Gypsum Drive), the round -a -bout
design, and public comment concerning the existence of ponds and wetland areas. The applicant
submitted revisions to meet the deadline and be heard on the current Subdivision Committee.
The Parks and Recreation Board met with the applicant again on August 10, after revisions were
submitted for Subdivision Committee, and a compromise was agreed upon by the developer and
the Parks board, thus altering the site plan for review. The Subdivision Committee voted to
forward this item to the full Planning Commission on August 12, 2004.

Recreation Board for this development. The Parks and Recreation Board on August 10 voted to
recommend a modified proposal to accept no less than 3 acres of parkland. The park will be
designed and constructed by the developer to City of Fayetteville park standards and shall
include amenities found within a typical neighborhood park. All improvements shall total at least
the money -in -lieu of requirement necessary to improve the park to the standards of a typically
fully improved Fayetteville neighborhood park, a cost which may exceed $150,000.
Additionally, the developer is to completely build the park within one (1) year of Final Plat
approval The. POA established for the subject subdivision will be responsible for maintenance of
the park for a period of 15 years The City of Fayetteville will own the parkland, to be deeded at
the time of Final Plat.
Tree Preservation: Existing canopy: 2.4 %
Preserved canopy: 0.0 %
Mitigation: $72,600 payment into the City's Tree Fund prior to
final plat approval.
Connectivity:
North: Currently W. Salem Road to the north is the only constructed street for accessing this
property. The applicant is proposing a connection to W. Salem Road to the north.
South: Crystal Springs III is constructing the street to the south. The applicant proposes to
connect to this future street to the Crystal Springs Phase III development to the south.
East: An intervening property, Lot #4 of springwoods C-PZD, a lot designated for
multifamily use, is to the east. The applicant proposes a stub -out for future connection
to Deane Solomon Road to the east, once Lot #4 develops. This stub -out is indicated to
be directly across from the approved entrance of springwoods Lot #5, a residential
subdivision east of Deane Solomon.
West: Currently vacant, agricultural land exists to the west. This property is not within the
City limits. A street stub -out is proposed to the west, at the north portion of the
property. A Collector Street right-of-way is proposed to stub -out to the west, as well, to
fulfill the Master Street Plan goals.
Staff recommends a Collector Street right-of-way be dedicated, and a primary east -west street be
constructed, in keeping with the Master Street Plan. The applicant has prepared several
alternatives, and in meeting with various levels of city staff and divisions, requests Planning
Commission consideration of the submitted street alignment as meeting the intent of the Master
Street Plan.
Portions of Gypsum Drive have been removed from the Master Street Plan by City Council. Both
of the streets traversing the springwoods development to the east were removed from the Master
Street Plan, due to concerns with potential impact to the existing wetlands and Clabber Creek. To
the west, a portion of Gypsum Dr. was constructed when the Crystal Springs, Phase I subdivision
was developed, connecting to Salem Road.
Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of PPL 04-1141 with the following conditions
of approval:

FINDINGS:
The desirability of preserving a tree or group of trees by reason of age, location, size or species.
The general assessment of trees finds trees in fair to good condition, with the majority being
located along the existing fence rows and property lines surrounding the project boundaries.
Whether the design incorporates the required Tree Preservation Priorities.
The design does not incorporate the minimum requirements for tree preservation. Though 1.7%
of the existing trees are indicated to be preserved, no tree protection measures are shown, nor are
the trees identified to be preserved.
The extent to which the area would be subject to environmental degradation due to removal of
the tree or group of trees.
Minimal environmental degradation will occur here due to the removal of trees surrounding this
property, due to the nature of their existence.
The impact of the reduction in tree cover on adjacent properties, the surrounding neighborhood
and the property on which the tree or group of trees is located.
Reduction in the tree canopy along the existing property lines around the property will not have a
detrimental impact upon adjacent properties.
Whether alternative construction methods have been proposed to reduce the impact of
development on existing trees.
Alternative construction methods have not been proposed.
Whether the size or shape of the lot reduces the flexibility of the design.
The size and or shape of this site does not hinder design flexibility to a great degree.
The general health and condition of the tree or group of trees, or the presence of any disease,
injury or hazard.
Most trees are in fair to good condition.
The placement of the tree or group of trees in relation to utilities, structures, and use of the
property.
The trees shown for removal are primarily located within proposed utility easements, along the back of lots
or within right-of-way. Those not removed during initial construction have the best chance of survival by
the proposed lot layout, however may not be counted as preserved if within utilityeasements or right-of-
way.
The need to remove the tree or group of trees for the purpose of installing, repairing, replacing,
or maintaining essential public utilities.
The majority of existing trees fall along the backs of lots surrounding the property. This is an
ideal location, outside of the building setback, however the installation of utilities to serve the
lots may necessitate their removal.
Whether roads and utilities are designed in relation to the existing topography, and routed,
where possible, to avoid damage to existing canopy.
No significant obstructions exist to the routing of roads and utilities.
Construction requirements for On -Site and Off -Site Alternatives.
N/A
The effects ofproposed On -Site Mitigation or Off -Site Alternatives.
Should On -site Mitigation be pursued, a detailed street tree planting plan will be required, and all

RE: Cricket Hollow, Schlegel property
Dear Jeremy:
Project No. E-689
The following responses are provided to comments received at Tech Plat review, July 13, 2004.
Planning Division:
l.g. Tree Preservation Plan/Info - Please indicate existing tree canopy tines on the Tree
Preservation Plan, as well as Tree Data (percentage of existing, preserved, removed
canopy)
The existing tree canopy line layer has been turned on to show on the plat, and the
percentages of existing, preserved, removed canopy have been added.
3.a. Adjacent Zoning - Please include adjacent property's zoning designations on the
Page 1 plat.
The current zoning designations of adjacent properties have been added to the plat.
Revise the zoning classification in the title -block to reflect the correct RSF-4
The zoning classification has been corrected.
3.k. Easement Dimensions - Please include all utility easements as requested by utility
representatives.
The requested utility easements and conduit crossings have been added to the plat.
4.a Master Street Plan Conformance - The Master Street Plan calls for a Collector
Street (Gypsum Drive) to cross this property east and west. Crystal Springs S/D has
constructed a portion of said planned street, which is shown on the MSP to connect
east to Dean Solomon Road. Please revise the plat to indicate this connection;
revisions may necessitate a meeting with staff to determine feasibility of continuing
on this review cycle.
This project has been discussed and reviewed with staff and City officials from its initial
concept through this point with obvious indication that traffic control and connectivity
were the primary issues. The Planning Commission and City Co

that the dispersion of traffic flow rather than concentrated within residential subdivisions
should be strived for. The decision to eliminate Trucker Drive as the connecting through
street, strengthened this direction and our coordination of design with both developing
land owners to the east and west. The connecting streets shown are at desired locations
by both adjoining landowners and achieve the goal of connecting Gypsum Dr. with that of
Dean Soloman. Crystal Springs Drive, to Raven Lane (major north -south street),
connecting by way of Tiger Eye Drive and/or Topaz Drive with Vanike Drive to Dean
Soloman is exactly the approach taken during the design process of this subdivision.
MCO has been assured that it will be engineer of choice in the development of lands to the
west and feels the connection of Gypsum Dr. as indicated by this proposed development
provides for a balance development distributing flow between the north -south streets of
Raven Lane, Dean Soloman, and North Salem. It is important in recognizing that our
Client, Tracy Hoskins, is proposing a major east -west coordinator connection -adjoining
this project site's north boundary of West Salem Road (improved with other
developments) connecting North Salem Road to Hwy 112 near Interstate 540 and Shiloh
Drive (frontage road). The proposed future development -of the Vawter/Graves property
also provides for the improvement, upgrading, of a large section of Dean Soloman Road
link Hwy 112 to Vanike Drive. This is a major circulation improvement. In the bigger
picture, proper traffic flow and circulation will be achieved, than simply saying (being
incorrect) that because the street is shown on an altered, inconsistent Master Street Plan it
has to be there.
Our Client and the adjoining property owners are opposed to reverting back to the direct
connection of through streets.
Our Client is asking that this project continue in review and that the Master Street Plan be
amended to remove the through street connection.
4.c. Curb Cuts (number & location) - Include a note on the plans stating that residential
curb cuts are to be a maximum of 24 -feet in width, measured at the right-of-way.
A note so indicating has been added to the plat.
4.d. Compliance with Design Standards - Staff recommends removal of the landscape
island to the south, as this acts as through street for connectivity.
This island serves as a speed control and traffic coming devise. It remains on the plat at
this time as a desired design element. The island has been presented -in the past and
recommended by various members of City Staff and Officials. The island can be removed
if determined detrimental. . , .. .._

Acknowledged.
Engineering Division:
Remove the detention from the proposed roundabout. Detention is not allowed
within the ROW.
Acknowledged. The area of detention will be removed and included in those designed
along the site's east boundary.
2. The roundabout will have to meet all current design criteria. The City of
Fayetteville Minimum Street Standards do not currently address roundabout
design, but it will have to meet design standards used by other municipalities in the
area (Little Rock has some).
The final design of the roundabout or intersecting configuration, will meet design
standards agreed to with the Engineering Division. Roundabout design criteria from the.
City of Little Rock is being obtained, considered.
3. Remove the island in the street between lots 19 and 20.
This is a desire design element that remains at this time. It can be eliminated if it is
determined detrimental and/or unsafe.
4. Will lot 111 have enough room to access a driveway
if entering from
the north?
Modification to the proposed

It appears to
be very flat.
The grade is
very flat in this area.
However, the minimum street grade
is/will be met.
6. All local streets shall have a 4' sidewalk on both sides of the street located at the
ROW. Sidewalk will need to be shown for the park area.
Our Client, Tracy Hoskins, does not feel sidewalks should be required. MCO has
indicated the required - potential sidewalk located as dashed, and agree with our Client in
that such locations may not meet with the park design when developed. The dedicated_
park land should/does not include improvements. P F C F I VP I

PLANNING DIVISION CORRESPONDENCE
PC Meeting of March 08, 2004
TO: Fayetteville Planning Commission
FROM: Jeremy Pate, Associate Planner
THRU: Dawn Warrick, AICP, Zoning & Development Administrator
DATE: February24, 2004
RZN 03-34.00: Rezoning (Schlegel, pp207/246) was submitted by Milholland Company on
behalf of Tracy Hoskins for property located north of the proposed Crystal Springs Phase III
subdivision, west of Deane Solomon Road. The property is in the Planning Area and contains
approximately 72.5 acres. The request is to rezone the property RSF-4, Residential Single-
family,.4 units per acre. Planner: Jeremy Pate
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested rezoning based on the findings herein.
BACKGROUND: Please reference the associated ANX 03-06.00 staff report for additional
background information.
Property Characteristics: The subject property is 72.5 acres of vacant property located west of
Deane Solomon Road and south of Salem Road. Salem Road at this location is a dirt road and does
not meet city street standards. Deane Solomon Road also does not meet city street standards. Single
family residences are located north of the subject property along Salem Road. Areas to the west and
south are vacant. Crystal Springs Subdivision, Phase III is proposed south of the subject property.
Gypsum Dr., a Collector Street, is shown on the Master Street Plan as an east and west connection
through the subject property. A portion of Gypsum Dr. was constructed when the Crystal Springs,
Phase I subdivision was developed.
An annexation and rezoning request was previously petitioned for the subject property in December
of 2002. At the time, staff recommended denial for both the annexation and rezoning requests, citing
concerns for Fire response times and increased loading onto existing infrastructure, particularly the
wastewater system. The recommendation for denial was based on the inability of the city to provide
adequate services to this particular area. Actions are being taken to remedy both situations: The
Large Scale Development for Fire Station #7, to be located on Rupple Road, has been approved by
Planning Commission and awaits final construction documents and permitting; a report from a
system -wide wastewater study has been submitted and adequate capacity has been identified to serve
this area for existing and proposed development (see attached). The proposal to rezone was tabled in
November, 2003, pending results from the wastewater capacity analysis
Proposal: The applicant would like to develop a single family residential subdivision.
Request: The applicant is requesting the property be rezoned from R -A', Residential Agricultural, to
RSF-4, Residential Single Family, 4 Dwelling Units per Acre, should the preceding Annexation
request be approved.
Related Issues: When property is annexed into the City, it is annexed as R -A Residential
Agricultural. If the annexation is recommended for approval to City Council, the applicant would
like to rezone the 72.5 acres to RSF-4, Residential Single Family, 4 Units per Acre. The annexation
request, ANX 03-06.00, is an accompanying item to this rezoning request.
Recommendation: Based on the information provided from the wastewater capacity study and
the findings included in the staff report, staff recommends approval of the rezoning request.
Future changes or additional development on this site will be regulated by the city allowing for a
more uniform and consistent development pattern.

connection through the subject property. A portion of Gypsum Dr. was
constructed when the Crystal Springs, Phase I subdivision was developed.
At the time of development, Staff will recommend improvements to the roadway
from the subject property to Deane Solomon Road, to City standards, as well as
other street improvements to serve the development.
Water: The property currently has access to an 8" water line that will be stubbed out from
the proposed Crystal Springs 3 subdivision. An extension of the water main will
be required to provide water supply within any development on this property. The
main will also have to be looped to the north to connect with the 2" line along
East Salem Road to provide dual feed for the development.
Sewer: The site currently has access to an 8" sewer main that will be stubbed out from the
proposed Crystal Springs III subdivision. Sewer will need to be extended within
the development.
Fire: The subject property is located 3.5 miles from the proposed Fire Station #7 on
Rupple Road. Normal driving time is 5 min. 42 seconds. Water supply will be
necessary for this property to develop. Access roads and street improvements to
allow for necessary fire apparatus ingress/egress will also be required.
LAND USE PLAN: General Plan 2020 designates this site Residential. Rezoning this property
to RSF-4 is consistent with the land use plan and. compatible with surrounding land uses in the
area
FINDINGS OF THE STAFF
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: The proposed zoning for a Single Family residential subdivision is
compatible with adjacent and nearby single family residential and
agricultural uses. The general plan designates this area for residential uses,
which is compatible with the proposed RSF-4 zoning. Access and provision
of adequate services must be considered as this site is at the outskirts of the
city and located on streets which need improvement.
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 justified in order to promote orderly and consistent
development patterns making use of existing infrastructure. The rezoning is
needed for the development of a single family subdivision as proposed by the
applicant. A subdivision with this density in the R -A district could not be
developed as it is currently zoned. A higher density than the R -A zoning
district allows is appropriate in this area, and would provide compatibility
with adjoining developments that are zoned and developed similarly. In
order to develop a residential subdivision on this property in a manner that
is consistent with the future land use plan, a residential zoning district is
needed.
3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase
traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: The proposed zoning will provide additional traffic on Salem Road, Dean
Solomon Road and other streets in the area. Several of the streets in the area
are unimproved and inadequate for emergency vehicle access, therefore off -
site improvements would likely be necessary in order to provide safe access
to this site.
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: The proposed zoning would increase population density. The 72.5 acre tract
under an R -A, Residential Agricultural designation would allow for a
maximum of 36 dwelling units (1 per 2 acres). With the proposed RSF-4
designation, 290 dwelling units would be permitted. This increases the
possible number of residential units substantially, but is consistent with land
use and zoning in. the immediate vicinity.
Engineering - The property currently has access to an 8" water line that will be stubbed out
from the proposed Crystal Springs 3 subdivision. An extension of the water main will be
required to provide water supply within any development on this property. The main will
also have to be looped to the north to connect with the 2" line along East Salem Road to
provide dual feed forthe development.
The site currently has access to an 8" sewer main that will be stubbed out from the
proposed Crystal Springs III subdivision. Sewer will need to be extended within the
development.
Access will be provided through street connections to the south through the proposed
Crystal Springs 2 subdivision. Access will also be provided at East Salem Road. East
Salem Road at this location is an unimproved gravel road. At the time of development, it
will be recommended that the roadway from the development to Deane Solomon Road be
improved to current City standards.
Fire - Water supply with fire hydrants is needed to serve development on this site, as will
access roads. The new fire
station on Rupple Rd.
will serve this site once
it is constructed.
Response time from the new station (#7)
will be 5
minutes 42 seconds (3.5
miles).
Police - Projects existing in. this area already receive police services. The same level of
service will be provided to this site as is currently applied to the existing city subdivisions to
in the vicinity. It is the opinion of the Fayetteville Police Department that this rezoning will
not substantially alter the population density and thereby undesirably increase the load on
police services.
The proposed access, however, is a concern. West Salem Road is unimproved at this .
location. This road is rough gravel and narrow. Without improvements or the addition of
alternate access, 290. potential units would create an appreciable increase in traffic danger
and congestion at this location.
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 (l) through (4) above why
the proposed zoning is not desirable.
Finding: N/A

Attached is the proposed neighbor park development for the above referenced
subdivision. The design includes the following elements as outlined in the Agreement Letter
between our client and the City of Fayetteville: open grass fields, trees, walking trails, picnic
tables, benches, stone or brick cooking grills, and water hydrants. Additional, proposed features
have been included in the park design to demonstrate the overall cohesiveness of the entire
subdivision.
We look forward to any questions or comments that you and others might have
concerning the park design.
Kindest regards,
