MEETING OF DECEMBER 6, 2016

THRU: Andrew Garner, Planning Director
FROM: Harry Davis, Current Planner
DATE: November 18, 2016
SUBJECT: RZN 16-5624: Rezone (SW CORNER OF GREGG AVE. & DRAKE
STJDRAKE ST. HOLDINGS, LLC, 289): Submitted by COLLIERS
INTERNATIONAL, INC. for properties at the SW CORNER OF GREGG
AVE. & DRAKE ST . The properties are zoned RMF-24, RESIDENTIAL
MULTI FAMILY, 24 UNITS PER ACRE and contain approximately 8.95
acres. The request is to rezone the property to CS, COMMUNITY
SERVICES.
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Planning staff and Planning Commission recommend approval of an ordinance to rezone
the subject property to CS, Community Services, as requested by the applicant and as shown in
the attached Exhibits 'A' and 'B'.
BACKGROUND:
The three subject parcels totaling 8.95 acres are located at the southwest corner of Drake St. and
Gregg Ave. The property is zoned RMF-24, Residential Multi -family, 24 Units per Acre and
currently undeveloped with a public road, Quality Lane, running through one of the parcels. The
eastern portion of the site is encompassed by the Scull Creek floodplain. Surrounding land use
and zoning is depicted on Table 1.
Request: The request is to rezone the site (approximately 8.95 acres) from RMF-24 to CS as the
applicant would like to develop the property with a mix of uses.
Land Use Compatibility: The proposed zoning is largely compatible with the nearby properties,
including the UT and RMF-24 zones to the north and south, respectively. Uses permitted in CS,
such as single-family, multi -family, eating places, offices, shopping, etc., are generally compatible
with current or permitted uses in the surrounding zoning, barring the University of Arkansas land
zoned R-A. The more intense commercial uses could be considered incompatible when directly
adjacent to R-A, but the subject property already has the ability to do dense development and the
added commercial uses would arguably not increase or expand the disparity. Additionally, the U
of A farm is an institutional use that would not be adversely impacted by this rezoning.
Land Use Plan Analysis: The proposed zoning is compatible with the Future Land Use Map
(FLUM). The definition of a City Neighborhood area highlights particular characteristics of what
this area should be, which is generally dense residential and non-residential uses on street

Fayetteville, AR 72701
corners and along transit corridors. Such areas have a very wide spectrum of allowed uses that
contribute to a neighborhood's overall walkability and sustainability, which necessitate traditional
development patterns and buildings placed closer to the property line. CS allows for the very
same things: mixture of dwelling types from single-family to apartments and live/work, a dynamic
range of uses from residential and open space to varying intensities of non-residential
development and businesses, and build -to zones closer to the street for new development.
Therefore, the proposed zoning does encourage patterns of development that result in realizing
these goals of City Plan 2030 and connect the definitions and City-wide aspirations between the
proposed zoning and future land use. The location of this property makes CS a highly appropriate
zone for this property. CS at the corner of two Minor Arterial streets is a generally appropriate
situation for this zoning district's purpose and the subject property's context, coupled with the
aforementioned compatibility with the 2030 Plan.
The site has direct access to Drake St. and Quality Ln., which both connect to Gregg Ave. CS
zoning would allow greater and more diverse residential and non-residential uses by right, which
may increase traffic compared to the existing use and zoning. The surrounding street system has
adequate capacity to handle increased traffic.
DISCUSSION:
On November 14, 2016 the Planning Commission forwarded the applicant's request with a
recommendation for approval by a vote of 8-0-0.

INFRASTRUCTURE:
Mailing Address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville, AR 72701
Streets: The subject parcels have access to Drake Street and Quality Lane. The parcels
are cut off from direct access to Gregg Avenue by existing railroad right of way.
Drake Street is designated as a Minor Arterial street in the Master Street Plan,
but today is just a two-lane asphalt street without storm drainage, curb/gutter, or
sidewalk improvements. Quality Lane is a fully improved local street, 2-lanes with
curb/gutter, storm drainage, and sidewalks already constructed. The master trails
plan shows a trail alignment proposed across the northern portion of this
property. Any street improvements required in these areas would be determined
at the time of development proposal.
Water: Public water is available to these parcels. There is an existing 8" water main in
the Drake Street right of way available for services. There is also an existing 18"
water main in the Gregg Avenue right of way available for main extensions.
Sewer: Sanitary Sewer is available to the site. There is an existing 8" sewer main located
in the southeast corner of these parcels. A larger 33" sewer main exists on the
eastern edge of these parcels in an existing easement.
Drainage: Any additional improvements or requirements for drainage will be determined at
time of development. Portions of these properties are identified as FEMA
regulated floodplains and floodways. No portions of these parcels lies within the
Hillside -Hilltop Overlay District or have slopes in excess of 15%. Hydric soils are
present on the site and any proposed development would be required to provide
a preliminary wetlands statement.
Fire: The Fire Department has not commented on this proposal.
Police: The Police Department did not express any concerns with this request.
CITY PLAN 2025 FUTURE LAND USE PLAN: City Plan 2030 Future Land Use Plan designates
the properties within the proposed rezone as City Neighborhood Area. These areas are more
densely developed than residential neighborhood areas and provide a varying mix of
nonresidential and residential uses. This designation supports the widest spectrum of uses and
encourages density in all housing types. Non-residential uses range in size, variety and intensity
from grocery stores and offices to churches, and are typically located at corners and along
connecting corridors.
FINDINGS OF THE STAFF
1. 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: Land Use Compatibility: The proposed zoning is largely compatible with the
nearby properties, including the UT and RMF-24 zones to the north and
south, respectively. Uses permitted in CS, such as single-family, multi-
family, eating places, offices, shopping, etc., are generally compatible with
current or permitted uses in the surrounding zoning, barring the University
of Arkansas land zoned R-A. The more intense commercial uses could be
considered incompatible when directly adjacent to R-A, but the subject
property already has the ability to do dense development and the added
commercial uses would arguably not increase or expand the disparity.

28�
Additionally, the U of A farm is an institutional use that would not be
adversely impacted by this rezoning.
The maximum height of 66 feet in CS is lower than RMF-24's maximum of 60
feet and lower than UT's maximum of 86 feet. R-A does not have a maximum
height limit, although it is dependent on distance to property lines. This
rezone proposal would be compatible in height to nearby districts.
Land Use Plan Analysis: The proposed zoning is compatible with the Future
Land Use Map (FLUM). The definition of a City Neighborhood area highlights
particular characteristics of what this area should be, which is generally
dense residential and non-residential uses on street corners and along
transit corridors. Such areas have a very wide spectrum of allowed uses that
contribute to a neighborhood's overall walkability and sustainability, which
necessitate traditional development patterns and buildings placed closer to
the property line. CS calls for the very same things: mixture of dwelling types
from single-family to apartments and live/work, a dynamic range of uses
from residential and open space to varying intensities of non-residential
development and businesses, and build -to zones closer to the street for new
development. Therefore, the proposed zoning does encourage patterns of
development that result in realizing these goals of City Plan 2030 and
connect the definitions and City-wide aspirations between the proposed
zoning and future land use. The location of this property makes CS a highly
appropriate zone for this property. CS at the corner of two Minor Arterial
streets is a generally appropriate situation for this zoning district's purpose
and the subject property's context, coupled with the aforementioned
compatibility with the 2030 Plan.
2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the
rezoning is proposed.
Finding: The applicant has requested the zoning change in order to appropriately
develop the property with mixed use under CS. In the future, this property
and the property to the north would help create a corner at the corner of
Drake St. and Gregg Ave., except for where the railroad intersects.
3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase
traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: The site has access to Drake St. and Gregg Ave. The CS zoning would allow
greater and more diverse residential and non-residential uses by right, which
may increase traffic compared to the existing use and zoning. The
surrounding street system has adequate capacity to handle increased traffic.
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: Rezoning the property from RMF-24 to CS would allow a greater density, but
would not undesirably increase the load on public services more than what
is already offered in the existing district.

5. 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.
Finding: N/A
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends forwarding RZN 16-5624 with a recommendation for
approval based on the findings discussed throughout this report.

Drake Street Holdings, LLC
Rezoning Request
RMF-24 to Community Services
A. The property is currently owned by Drake Street Holdings, LLC. It is the intent of the owner to sell
the property when rezoned.
B. The rezoning from RMF-24 to Community Services will allow the property to be developed with a
mix of offices and other uses.
C. The proposed rezoning will be compatible with surrounding uses and proposed uses. The
surrounding properties have a mix of uses, primarily multifamily and institutional. The property
immediately to the north was recently approved for office development, and the property to the
south was rezoned to Urban Thoroughfare. The subject property is located at the intersection of
Drake and Gregg Streets, which are non-residential streets. The subject property will be subject to
design and signage consistent with Community Services.
D. The property is served by 8" water lines to both the south and north. In addition, an 18" water line is
located to the east of the property. The property is served by both 8" and 33" sanitary sewer lines.
E. The proposed zoning is consistent with the 2030 Future Land Use Plan which shows City
Neighborhood Area for the property.
F. The proposed zoning is both justified and needed now.
G. The proposed zoning will decrease future traffic to the property, as the current zoning allows the
development of over 200 apartment units.
H. The proposed zoning will decrease the need for public infrastructure, as the current zoning allows
the development of over 200 apartment units.
I. It is currently impractical to develop apartments on the property, due the current construction of
numerous projects in the Fayetteville market.
