City Council approval to grant a 40 foot right-of-way located on City
owned property south of Madison Drive to provide public street
connectivity to Hays Estates.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of granting a 40 foot public right of way to allow the
connection to be made to Hays Estates as shown on the plat.
BACKGROUND
The Fayetteville Planning Commission recently reviewed and approved a proposed 18
lot, single family home subdivision on 5.45 acres. The City has a long standing policy of
requiring connectivity between developments in order to provide better traffic and
pedestrian circulation and to promote a sense of community.
On April 11, 2005, the Fayetteville Planning Commission approved the preliminary plat
for Hays Estates subject to the following condition:
Planning Commission determination of a waiver request for cul-de-sac length.
Staff recommends dedication of City property to the north for a 40 -foot wide
right-of-way and construction of a city street, including sidewalks, to Madison
Drive at the developer's expense. The Parks and Recreation Board voted
unanimously to recommend to City Council that this street connection be
approved and right-of-way be dedicated across existing parkland to connect the
proposed street.
This property was recently designated as parkland and the Parks and Recreation Board
voted to approve the street to be connected to Madison Drive through this property. This
street connection allows for pedestrian and vehicular connectivity and provides a second
means of access.
Without the access, the proposed 18 lots would be through Arapahoe Drive, located in
Barrington Parke Subdivision. Should the City Council approve this dedication, it will be
the developer's responsibility to construct a street north to Madison Drive compliant with
ordinance requirements.
BUDGET IMPACT

FINDINGS:
The desirability of preserving a tree or group of trees by reason of age, location, size or species.
• The trees located on this site are grouped along the eastern boundary, consisting

• •
primarily of a dense screen of pine trees. The majority of these trees are desirable
for preservation, as they provide an existing mature screen to adjacent properties.
Whether the design incorporates the required Tree Preservation Priorities.
• The design of the subdivision does incorporate the required Tree Preservation
Priorities. Those trees being removed are located within proposed utility easements
and right-of-way necessary for the construction of the subdivision.
The extent to which the area would be subject to environmental degradation due to removal of
the tree or group of trees.
• Environmental degradation will not occur due to the removal of the trees for this
project.
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.
• Adjacent properties would be effected by the removal of the trees to the east;
however, this existing buffer is to remain by the developer, allowing future
homeowners instant privacy.
Whether alternative construction methods have been proposed to reduce the impact of
development on existing trees.
• No alternative construction methods are proposed.
Whether the size or shape of the lot reduces the flexibility of the design.
• The size and shape of the lot does not inhibit the flexibility of design, as the lot :is..
being created to fit this development. A determining factor, however is the large'
pond to the west.
The general health and condition of the tree or group of trees, or the presence of anyy disease,
injury or hazard.
• The general health of all groups of trees on this site is good, without a noticeable
presence of disease or injury.
The placement of the tree or group of trees in relation to utilities, structures, and use of the
property.
• Most trees shown to be preserved are sited in good relationship to the proposed
streets and utilities, to ensure prolonged preservation.
The need to remove the tree or group of trees for the purpose of installing, repairing, replacing,
or maintaining essential public utilities.
• Some trees may need to be removed to install essential public utilities, but most will
not be in danger for future maintenance of those utilities in the future.
Whether roads and utilities are designed in relation to the existing topography, and routed,
where possible, to avoid damage to existing canopy.

RE• HAYS ESTATES —WAIVER REQUEST
Dear Commissioners:
Please accept this letter as an official request of waiver for two development standards in
the proposed residential subdivision of Hays Estates. The proposed project is a single-
family residential development with a zoning designation of RSF-4. The proposed
project is bound by Banington Parke Subdivision, Phase II on the east, City of
Fayetteville parks property along the north, and R-1 zoned property owned by the
developer to the west.
The development is currently proposed with a cul-de-sac length of 859 feet, which is
greater than the City development standard of 500 feet It is our understanding that the
City may be willing to donate right-of-way for connectivity of this development to
Madison. The developer supports an opportunity for connectivity, but requests
conditional approval and a waiver of the cul-de-sac length if City Council denies the
extension.
The developer is also requesting a waiver to the 100 foot horizontal setback requirement
with respect to the 100 -year water surface elevation. Proposed lot numbers 10-16 are not
in compliance with this requirement. However, a minimum finished floor elevation is
reflected on all the lake front property at elevation 1391.0. The 100 -year water surface
elevation is calculated at elevation 1388.0 and the breach elevation of the dam
embankment is at an approximate elevation 1389.0. Consequently, the dam will breach
prior to flooding any inhabitable structures with a minimum finished floor elevation of
1391.0.

PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD
Meeting Minutes
October 11, 2004
Opening:
The regular meeting of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board was called to order at
5:38 p.m. on October 11, 2004 on site at the proposed park site on Madison Drive,
Fayetteville, Arkansas by Chairman Colwell.
Present:
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board members Colwell, Eads, Hill, Mauritson,
Shoulders, and Pawlik Holmes; City staff Coody, Coles, Jumper, Weber, Hatfield,
Edmonston, Councilwoman Brenda Thiel; and Audience.
1. Approval of September 13, 2004 Minutes
MOTION:
Hill moved to approve the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board
September 13, 2004 meeting minutes.
Eads seconded the motion.
The motion was approved 5-0-0 with Colwell, Eads, Hill, Mauritson,
Shoulders, and voting 'yes' and Bailey, Pawlik Holmes, Marley absent for
the vote.
2. Proposed Park Site:
Barrington Parke Property Owners Association has requested for PRAB to
accept approximately 13 acres of City owned land into the parks system.
The land is located south of Highway 45 East, between Starr Drive and Fox
Hunter Road. It is immediately west and south of the St. Joseph Cemetery.
See attached map.
The City has owned this property for the past 18 years. The land was
acquired by the City in conjunction with a court order relating to the
installation of sewer mains through the property. The land is zoned R-SF4.
It contains a number of sewer and drainage easements. Madison Drive
goes through the southern portion of this property, thus eliminating about
.6 acre and reducing the total from 13.51 to 12.91 acres.
October 11, 2004 / 1
• •
Arnie Glass, a representative of Barrington Parke Property Association, presented
their request to transfer the property that the city currently owns to the Parks and
Recreation Division. She explained their intent was not to develop the land once it is
owned by Parks and Recreation, but to keep the land at a natural state. She then
stated that their POA has located a grant writer to help in the search for funding for
any sort of development of the land in the future.
Jeff Coles spoke about the minimum level of maintenance a natural area is given.
He also explained there are standards that all park land must meet as far as safety
and maintenance.
Colwell pointed out the land proposed to Parks and Recreation may be partly in a
wet land area.
Citizen A stated his opinion to be that he would like a trail developed on the
property.
Hill added his concern is that if development is desired, that it would take four to
five years to begin due to funding restraints and the Capital Improvements
prioritization process.
Citizen B stated her property adjoins the property from the east side of the
proposed park land. She stated her main concern was for security of the property
and that she would like for it to remain natural area as well. There have been many
people driving vehicles back into the wooded areas.
Amie Glass stated that the majority of the POA is in agreement that the land
remains at a natural state and that the POA will research funding if development is
desired.
Hill moved to accept the park land on the north side and south of
Madison Drive into the Parks and Recreation Division.
Mauritson seconded the motion.
The motion was approved 6-0-0 with Colwell, Eads, Hill, Mauritson,
Shoulders, Pawlik Holmes, and voting 'yes' Marley and Bailey absent for
the vote.
3. Alison Jumper- Dog Park Update
Jumper reviewed that three public meetings have been held and staff is working
on analyzing the results of the meetings and surveys. Survey returns were
excellent. Next steps include determining the top location possibilities and then
hosting public meetings for the affected neighborhoods. Jumper also mentioned
that staff will be posting information about the dog park on the website.

vehicular connectivity from this proposed subdivision to Madison Drive to
the north through Madison Street Natural Area. They are requesting
approval to dedicate a 40 foot wide by 150 foot long access easement
across park land to make the connection. The City asked the developer to
request the easement across the park land.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends allowing the proposed
easement on park land.
Tom Henley representing H2 Engineering stated that the developer's
position in requesting right-of-way across City park land would provide
accessibility to the park area by the residents of the new development.
Because of the benefit provided by this access the developers do not feel
they should be required to pay a compensation to the city.
Tom Henley stated that the Boards approval of the proposed extension is
necessary in order to have a chance at getting the project approved by
Planning. He suggested that the city small section of parks land to the
south of Madison could offer the city the potential to generate revenue in
the future if the City were to sell those lots for building sites.
Davidson added that the city could sell those lots without the street
going through.
