MEETING OF JANUARY 2, 2018
TO: Mayor, Fayetteville City Council
THRU: Garner Stoll, Development Services Director
FROM: Jonathan Curth, Senior Planner
Andrew Garner, City Planning Director
DATE: December 15, 2017
SUBJECT: RZN 17-6004: Rezone (1620 N. PORTER RD./REAGOR, 403): Submitted by
JORGENSEN & ASSOCIATES, INC. for properties at 1620 N. PORTER RD. The
properties are zoned RSF-4, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY, 4 UNITS PER
ACRE and contain approximately 0.55 acres. The request is to rezone the
properties to RI -U, RESIDENTIAL INTERMEDIATE, URBAN.
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Planning staff and Planning Commission recommend approval of an ordinance to rezone
the subject property to RI -U, Residential Intermediate, Urban, as shown in the attached Exhibits
'A' and 'B'.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located approximately one-half mile north of Wedington Drive on the
southeast corner of Porter Road and Houston Street. Porter is classified by the City's Master
Street Plan as a Collector and Houston as a Local Street. The property is currently zoned RSF-
4, Residential Single-family, 4 Units per Acre, and is developed with a single-family dwelling that
was built in 1964.
Request: The request is to rezone the property from RSF-4 to RI -U. The applicant's letter indicates
that they intend to develop the property for residential uses of increased density.
Land Use Compatibility: Staff's finds the proposed rezoning to be compatible with land uses in
the subject property's vicinity. In staff's opinion, the dwelling types permitted within the proposed
RI -U zoning district are compatible with both the immediately surrounding single- and two-family
uses and the many multi -family developments found throughout the broader area. At the same
time, it is worth noting that the lack of a density requirement under the RI -U zoning district has
the potential to encourage a development pattern that is of greater intensity than currently occurs
on or adjacent to the subject property. All things considered, staff finds that the 0.55 -acre size of
the subject property will be a limitation on development, effectively curbing the number of units
that can be feasibly built to an amount compatible with adjacent land uses.
Mailing Address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville, AR 72701
Land Use Plan Analysis: The proposed rezoning exhibits mixed compatibility with the City's
adopted plans. The proposed zoning complies with the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) in City Plan
2030, which designates the subject and surrounding properties as Residential Neighborhood
Area. Residential Neighborhood Area is a classification that includes a wide variety of residential
uses, ranging from single- to multi -family. However, Residential Neighborhood Areas are also
intended to support residential housing that is contextual and of appropriate scale. Goal #1 of City
Plan 2030 further emphasizes this by stating "We will make appropriate infill and revitalization our
highest priorities." Combined, the future land use designation and Goal #1 of City Plan 2030
promote development that reflects the existing community character. Under the RI -U zoning
district, required land area and density requirements are eliminated when compared to the
existing RSF-4 zoning district. This may result in development that is of significantly varying
character from adjacent properties.
That said, the proposal is complimentary of many City Plan 2030 goals. Unlike the existing RSF-
4 zoning district, RI -U permits a wider spectrum of housing types, which may promote
opportunities for attainable housing (City Plan 2030 Goal #6). Additionally, the subject property's
location adjacent to Porter Road, a well -used transportation route, has resulted in it being near
bus stops for Razorback Transit, making development under this proposal a potential contributor
to establishing a livable transportation network (Goal #4). Lastly, rezoning the property to RI -U,
including its associated build -to zone and density, encourages infill development in a traditional
town form (Goal #3), with new structures addressing the street and utilizing existing services and
infrastructure.
DISCUSSION:
On December 11, 2017, the Planning Commission heard the item and proposed RI -U, Residential
Intermediate -Urban, as an alternative zoning district that may be more compatible than the
originally proposed RMF -2.4, Residential Multi -family, 24 Units per Acre. The applicant agreed to
revise their request to the proposed RI -U zoning district and the Planning Commission forwarded
the proposal to City Council with a recommendation for approval by a vote of 7-0-0. Members of
the public spoke in opposition to the request, citing concerns about traffic congestion and danger,
and the potential that development will aggravate existing flooding that occurs to the east and
northeast.

PLANNING COMMISSION MEMO
TO: City of Fayetteville Planning Commission
THRU: Andrew Garner, City Planning Director
FROM: Jonathan Curth, Senior Planner
MEETING DATE: December 11, 2017 (Updated with Planning Commission Results)
SUBJECT: RZN 17-6004: Rezone (1620 N. PORTER RD./REAGOR, 403): Submitted
by JORGENSEN & ASSOCIATES, INC. for properties at 1620 N. PORTER
RD. The properties are zoned RSF-4, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY, 4
UNITS PER ACRE and contain approximately 0.55 acres. The request is
to rezone the properties to RMF -24, RESIDENTIAL MULTI FAMILY, 24
UNITS PER ACRE.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends forwarding of RZN 17-6004 to the City Council with a recommendation for
approval based on the findings herein.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located approximately one-half mile north of Wedington Drive on the
southeast corner of Porter Road and Houston Street. Porter is classified by the City's Master
Street Plan as a Collector and Houston as a Local Street. The property is currently zoned RSF-
4, Residential Single-family, 4 Units per Acre, and is developed with a single-family dwelling that
was built in 1964. Surrounding land use and zoning is depicted on Table 1.

indicates that they intend to develop the property for residential uses of increased density.
Public Comment: Staff has received public comment from one resident and two property owners
in the neighborhood. Opposition was expressed by one property owner and the resident, with the
stated concerns being existing traffic conditions and the exacerbation of flooding. The second
property owner expressed concerns with new development given the poor drainage and flooding
in the area.

INFRASTRUCTURE:
Streets: The subject property has access to both Porter Road and Houston Street,
classified as Collector and Local Streets respectively. Porter Road is an
unimproved, two-lane asphalt street with sidewalk on one side of the street and
no curb and gutter. Houston Street is partially improved with the full Local street
width of asphalt, curb and gutter, but no sidewalk. Any street improvements
required in these areas would be determined at the time of development
proposal.
Water: Public water is available to the site. There are existing 4 -inch and 6 -inch public
water mains along the Porter right-of-way, and an 8 -inch public water main on
Houston.
Sewer: Sanitary sewer is available to the site. There is an existing 6 -inch public sewer
main in the Porter right-of-way.
Drainage: No portions of this parcel are identified as 100 -year FEMA regulated floodplains
or floodways, and no protected streams are present. Furthermore, no portion of
this parcel is within the Hillside -Hilltop Overlay District. A large area of floodplain
is present to the north of the subject property in association with a tributary of
Hamestring Creek. Any additional improvements or requirements for drainage
will be determined at time of development.
Fire: The Fire Department did not express any concerns with this request.
Police: The Police Department did not express any concerns with this request.
CITY PLAN 2030 FUTURE LAND USE PLAN: City Plan 2030 Future Land Use Plan designates
the properties within the proposed rezone as Residential Neighborhood Area.
Residential Neighborhood Areas are primarily residential in nature and support a variety of
housing types of appropriate scale and context, including single family, multifamily and row -
houses. Residential Neighborhood encourages highly connected, compact blocks with gridded
street patterns and reduced setbacks. It also encourages traditional neighborhood development
that incorporates low -intensity non-residential uses intended to serve the surrounding neighbor-
hood, such as retail and offices, on corners and along connecting corridors. This designation
recognizes existing conventional subdivision developments which may have large blocks with
conventional setbacks and development patterns that respond to features in the natural envi-
ronment.
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: Surrounding Land Use Compatibility: Staff's findings regarding land use
compatibility are mixed. In staff's opinion, the development scale, types, and
patterns permitted within the proposed RMF -24 zoning district are not fully
compatible with the immediately surrounding single- and two-family uses
and densities. Although property zoned RMF -24 exists to the east, it is

developed with 2 -family dwellings at a density of approximately 6.5 units per
acre, which is comparable to the low-density, single-family residential that
is common in the area. At the same time, it is worth noting the diverse
housing in the wider area, which includes many multi -family developments,
suggesting that greater density may be appropriate, but perhaps not to the
degree proposed.
Land Use Plan Analysis: As with staff's land use compatibility findings, land
use plan compatibility findings are mixed. The proposed zoning is somewhat
compatible with the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) in City Plan 2030, which
designates the subject and surrounding properties as Residential
Neighborhood Area. Residential Neighborhood Area is a classification that
includes a wide variety of residential uses, ranging from single- to multi-
family. However, Residential Neighborhood Areas are also intended to
support residential housing that is contextual and of appropriate scale. Goal
#1 of City Plan 2030 is "We will make appropriate infill and revitalization our
highest priorities." This goal further states that the City should promote
development that reflects the existing community character. Under the RMF -
24 zoning district, the required land area requirements decrease and density
allowances increase when compared to the RSF-4 zoning district. This may
result in development that is of significantly varying character from adjacent
properties.
The proposal is complimentary of many City Plan 2030 goals. Unlike the
existing RSF-4 zoning district, RMF -24 allows a broad spectrum of housing
types, which may promote opportunities for attainable housing (City Plan
2030 Goal #6). Additionally, the subject property's location adjacent to Porter
Road, a well -used transportation route, has resulted in it being near bus
stops for Razorback Transit, making development under this proposal a
potential contributor to establishing a livable transportation network (Goal
#4). Lastly, rezoning the property to RMF -24, including its associated build -
to zone and density, encourages infill development in a traditional town form
(Goal #3), with new structures addressing the street and utilizing existing
services and infrastructure.
2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the
rezoning is proposed.
Finding: In staff's opinion, a rezoning to RMF -24 at this location is justified at this
time. While current land use compatibility and the Future Land Use Map
designation vary somewhat on the appropriateness of the scale and
development patterns allowed by RMF -24, the alignment of the request with
many of City Plan 2030's goals suggest a rezoning is suitable. Alternatively,
staff suggests consideration of a more contextually appropriate and
transitional zoning district, such as RSF-8, Residential Single-family, 8 Units
per Acre, NC, Neighborhood Conservation, or RI -12, Residential
Intermediate, 12 Units per Acre.

3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase
traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: While a higher level of development intensity is permitted under the RMF -24
zoning district, rezoning the property is not likely to increase traffic danger
or congestion over the existing RSF-4 zoning district. Between 2011 and
2015, one vehicular accident and one accident involving a pedestrian
occurred at Porter and Houston. The possibility of additional hazard can be
mitigated through many of the City's development standards. This includes
the access management ordinance, which requires 2-, 3-, and multi -family
dwellings access a lower classification street when available (Houston in
this case), and at a spacing of no less than 50 feet on a Local Street.
Furthermore, if the impact of development is determined to be sufficient,
sidewalks and other improvements may be required along one or both
property frontages.
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 RSF-4 to RMF -24 will increase the potential
population density, and may increase the load on facilities and services.
Given the size of the property however, a maximum density of approximately
12 units is possible, which is unlikely to have adverse effects. Under the
RMF -24 zoning district's requirements there is potential for multiple single -
or two-family dwellings, or, with the adequate provision of parking and
stormwater facilities, a multi -family development.
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 of RZN 17-6004 to the City Council with a
recommendation for approval based on the findings discussed throughout this report.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: "I move to forward RZN 17-6004 to the City Council with a
recommendation of approval."

Re: Rezoning at 1620 Porter Rd.
Dear City Staff;
RZN 17-6004
Request
Letter
124 W Sunbridge Drive, Suite 5
Fayetteville, AR 72703
Office: 479 442.9127
Fax: 479.582.4807

Murry and Leslie Reagor are proposing to rezone their property at 1620 Porter Rd. (parcels 765-11600-000 &
765-11566-000) from RSF-4 to RMF -24. They are eventually desiring to split the lot into lots of between 30' and 40' in
width and would like to stay consistent with zoning to the east.
An RMF -24 zoning would be consistent with the designated future land, Residential Neighborhood Area. By
definition these are residential in nature but support a variety of housing types, including single family, multi -family
and row houses. Specifically, this is a corner lot on a Collector St. (Porter Rd.) where typically you would find higher
density. The surrounding properties vary between RSF-4 and RMF -24. To the north south and east is RSF-4 and to
the NW, SE, SW & E is RMF -24, so a multi -family zoning would be appropriate for 1620 Porter.
Appearance will be either row homes, duplexes or single-family houses, which would match the surrounding
neighborhood. The property is on a corner lot with access to a currently low volume residential street and a collector
street. With the small amount of development proposed there won't be a measurable traffic increase.
An 8" water main is available along Houston St. and 6" and 4" water mains are available along Porter Rd. A
6" sewer main is accessible along Porter Rd.
As mentioned above, this is a corner lot on a Collector St. (Porter Rd.) where typically you would find higher
density. Pages 12-5 and 12-6 of the City's Future Land Use Guiding Policies point out having a variety of residential
uses, especially higher density and low intensity non-residential on corner lots. RMF -24 would be a consistent with
this policy.
In order to continue growth and infill around existing streets and infrastructure the lot would need to be
rezoned.
At the very most and if rezoned the property could have 13 units, not a dramatic increase for a lot on the
corner of a collector street and a residential street.
Both Owl Creek Middle School and Asbell Elementary School are nearby. This is in the middle of a well
serviced area for both water and sewer.
It would be impractical for the property to be zoned for less density.
Thank you and if you need any additional information, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
Evan Niehues, LA
