CROSSOVER RD./JONES, 294): Submitted by JERRY JONES for properties at 2468 N. CROSSOVER RD. The properties are zoned RSF-2, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY, 2 UNITS PER ACRE and contain approximately 4.40 acres. The request is to rezone the properties to NS -G, NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES -GENERAL. RECOMMENDATION: Planning Commission recommend approval of an ordinance to rezone the subject property to NS- G, Neighborhood Services -General, as shown in the attached Exhibits `A' and 'B'. City Planning staff recommend approval of the original request of NS -L, Neighborhood Services -Limited. BACKGROUND: The subject property totaling approximately 4.40 acres is located near the intersection of Crossover Road and Township Street. The parcel is zoned RSF-2, Residential Single-family, 2 Units per Acre and is mostly undeveloped, except for one existing home. Request: The request is to rezone the parcel from RSF-2, Residential Single-family, 2 Units per Acre to NS -G, Neighborhood Services -General. The applicant stated the rezoning is needed to allow small offices to be developed on the property after unsuccessfully marketing the property for 11 years as residential. The original request before Planning Commission was for NS -L, Neighborhood Services -Limited. The request was proposed to be modified to NS -G, Neighborhood Services -General, by the Planning Commission and the applicant agreed. Land Use Compatibility: The originally proposed zoning of NS -L is compatible with the surrounding properties along a busy state highway. Neighborhood Services -Limited contains a number of different residential and non-residential uses that are intended to be low in impact on nearby residential properties. Commercial uses will have a maximum amount of 3,000 square feet, measured as gross -floor area, allowed in one building. This maintains a bulk and area pattern language compatible with single-family detached dwellings. NS -G would move away from typologies and building footprints that could become incompatible with nearby properties by allowing commercial buildings up to 8,000 square feet in size. Mailing Address: 113 W. Mountain Street v+ �ww.fayetteville-aLgov Fayetteville, AR 72701 Land Use Plan Analysis: Staff believes that the NS -L proposal is compatible with the goals in City Plan 2030, adopted land use policies, and the future land use designation for this location. This property, designated as a Residential Area, is intended to be residential in nature, but does encourage some commercial uses at major intersections and along connecting corridors. Furthermore, NS -L promotes traditional neighborhood development by providing services within walking distance of residents in the area and requiring new buildings be located closer to the street. NS -G would be out of context with the surrounding building scale and mass. This is in contrast to City Plan Goal #1 "We will make appropriate infill and revitalization our highest priority". DISCUSSION: On January 8, 2018, the Planning Commission forwarded the proposal to City Council with a recommendation for approval of NS -G (not the applicant's initial request for NS -L) by a vote of 7- 1-0. Commissioner Brown dissented to the motion and the applicant stated agreement with the Commission's recommendation. Significant public comment was made against the proposal citing safety, traffic, and general incompatibility. Public comment sent to the Planning Division after the Planning Commission meeting has been attached to this report.

Crossover to NS -L Dear Planning Commission, Justin, Kit, and Sarah— I am very dissapointed that the area at 2468 N. Crossover was rezoned from Residential to Neighborhood Services -General (which is even more broad then the Posted Hearing request for NS -L) at last night's Planning Commission. I strongly support maintaining the approved City Plan 2030 scope to maintain this land use as Residential. Can you please help me to understand how this type of decision is possible when it goes against the City Plan 2030 (see Future Land Use Plan below)? If we are not going to follow the City Plan 2030, but only use it as a loose guideline, then whey was all the energy put into this by the community in 2011? This is a very slippery slope that can have much broader impacts to our community. Kindly seeking to understand both this decision and your commitments to the City Plan 2030? Also, seeking to understand how the Planning Commission can approve a more broad rezoning when this was not even posted / communicated in advance of the Planning Commission meeting?

Crossover to NS -L Planning Commission — I am writing to share my Opposition to Rezoning 2468 N. Crossover to NS -L from currently being Residential (vs. current RSF-2). I cannot attend the Planning Commission meeting today and would appreciate your inclusion of my opposition. My opposition is based on the following: Rezoning to HS -L isnot In allgoMent with the City Plan 203 1. Plan stresses an "increase In economic value" —Adding additional commercial space is not warranted based on current excess available commercial space available throughout the city (especially In the immediate area of Crossover -Joyce + Crossover - Mission). There are —250 commercial properties available for sale or lease in Fayetteville, many in the Immediate area being discussed. 2. In the 2030 Plan Residential Guiding Policies— "e. Encourage a development scale to maintain compatibility, use and proportionality between a variety of residential and nonresidential land uses." —There is sufficient non-residential space (build and open land) available a short walking or biking distance at the Crossover intersections of Mission /Joyce with sidewalks already connecting. Adding additional commercial space between these key hubs does not meet the intent to maintain "... compatibility, use and proportionality..." Additionally: 1. A clear plan has not been laid out forthe use of this land if rezoned. 2. This topic is being revisited with the Planning Dept + Commission and has already been denied previously by the City Council. Thank you very much for your time and consideration in this matter *chard Kfaus NA CustomerSuppfy 2 (513) 288-1800 Mobile I (513) 715-8058EFa7c "All Pricing, Promotion and Distribution decisions are at the sole discretion of the retailer.

W4 'IV CITY of PLANNING COMMISSION MEMO) FAYETTEVILLE ARKANSAS TO: City of Fayetteville Planning Commission THRU: Andrew Garner, City Planning Director FROM: Harry Davis, Planner MEETING DATE: January8, 2018 UPDATED W RESULTS SUBJECT: RZN 17-6034: Rezone (2468 N. CROSSOVER RD./JONES, 294): Submitted by JERRY JONES for properties at 2468 N. CROSSOVER RD. The properties are zoned RSF-2, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY, 2 UNITS PER ACRE and contain approximately 3.90 acres. The request is to rezone the properties to NS -L, NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES -LIMITED. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends forwarding RZN 17-6034 to City Council with a recommendation for approval based upon the findings herein. BACKGROUND: The subject property totaling 3.90 acres is located near the intersection of Crossover Road and Township Street. The parcel is zoned RSF-2, Residential Single-family, 2 Units per Acre and is mostly undeveloped, except for one existing home. The surrounding land use and zoning is in Table 1. Table 1 Surrounding Land Use and Direction from Land Use Site North Residential South Residential East Residential West Residential; Church Zoning R -O, Residential Office R -A, Residential Agricultural_ R -A, Residential Agricultural R-PZD, Residential Planned Zoninq District; P-1, Institutional Request: The request is to rezone the parcel from RSF-2, Residential Single-family, 2 Units per Acre to NS -L, Neighborhood Services - Limited. The applicant stated the rezoning is needed to allow small offices to be developed on the property after unsuccessfully marketing the property for 11 years as residential. Public Comment: Staff has not received any public comment as of writing this report. Public comment was received prior to PC and has been attached to this report. Public comment, both prior to and at PC, was generally in opposition to the proposal for safety, traffic, and compatibility issues. Mailing Address: 113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov Fayetteville, AR 72701 INFRASTRUCTURE: Streets: The subject parcel has access to North Crossover Road. Crossover Road is an improved four lane asphalt street with sidewalk, curb and gutter, and storm drains. A multi -use trail is planned for the east side of Crossover Road along these parcels' frontage. 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 is a 24 -inch transmission main and 2 - inch water main along the subject parcels' frontage on Crossover Road. The 24 - inch line is not available for service connections, but existing hydrants on this line may be used for main extension tie-in points. Sewer: Sanitary Sewer is available to the site. There is an existing 8 -inch main along the subject parcels' frontage on Crossover Road. Drainage: No portion of this property is identified as FEMA regulated floodplains. No part of the parcel lies within the HHOD and there are no 15% slope areas identified onsite. There are no protected streams on this parcel. There are no hydric soils identified on this parcel. Any additional improvements or requirements for drainage will be determined at time of development. Fire: The Fire Department expressed no concerns with this request. Police: The Police Department expressed no 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. These areas are primarily residential in nature and support a variety of housing types of appropriate scale and context, including single family, multifamily and rowhouses. 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 neighborhood, such as retail and offices, on corners and along connecting corridors. 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: Land Use Compatibility: The proposed zoning is compatible with the surrounding properties along a busy state highway. Neighborhood Services Limited, contains a number of different residential and non-residential uses that are intended to be low in impact on nearby residential properties. Commercial uses will have a maximum amount of gross -floor area allowed in one building. This maintains a bulk and area pattern language compatible with single-family detached dwellings. Any uses in the proposed zoning district must meet Fayetteville's noise ordinances for residential properties. Land Use Plan Analysis: Staff believes that the proposal is compatible with the goals in City Plan 2030, adopted land use policies, and the future land use designation for this location. This property, designated as a Residential G:\ETC\Development Services Review\2017\Development Review\17-6034 RZN 2468 N. Crossover Rd. (Jones) 294 Area, is intended to be residential in nature, but does allow for some commercial uses at major intersections and along connecting corridors. Furthermore, NS -L promotes traditional neighborhood development by providing services within walking distance of residents in the area and requiring new buildings be located closer to the street. 2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the rezoning is proposed. Finding: Staff does believe the applicant has given sufficient justification for rezoning the property to NS -L. 3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase traffic danger and congestion. Finding: Rezoning the property to NS -L has the potential to increase traffic in this area as the site develops. Given the size of the property and uses allowed in NS -L districts, lower intensities of uses would not create or exacerbate dangerous traffic situations. Crossover Road (Highway 265) has been fully improved as a boulevard arterial section. 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 this property from RSF-2 to NS -L would potentially increase the population density and use of city services at this location, but staff does not believe this would have a burdensome impact. 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: Planning staff recommends forwarding RZN 17-6034 to City Council with a recommendation for approval.

In addition to the standard concerns about impact to area value, traffic, noise, etc...; I have 2 specific data points to share. 1. There are currently 242 commercial properties for sale or lease in Fayetteville AR. Many are already on Crossover road (or very close) at Mission, Joyce, Huntsville and Zion Rd. These are in already commercial areas. There is no reason to disrupt our residential area with that much unused commercial property currently available. 2. Risk of increased crime when mixing residential and commercial. We have already seen an increase in neighborhood crime to the point I just installed security camera's this weekend. In my research, I found a 2013 study from behavioral scientistjames Anderson at RAND lb -al find mixing commercial with residential zgnes increases crime. They found that zoning indeed predicted the criminal activity of a neighborhood, with residential areas safest, followed by mixed-use residential and commercial zones, followed by commercial -only places. Their findings, published in the University of Pennsylvania Low Review ME lend support to the idea that city officials can improve the safety of a neighborhood by doing something as simple as zoning part of it for residential living. Can I have your support on in opposing this zoning change? We opposed this same rezoning a few years ago and it was voted down. I am disappointed this keeps coming back to the agenda. I live in the neighborhood behind, Candlewood.

Crossover to NS -L Planning Commission - I am writing to share my Opposition to Rezoning 2468 N. Crossover to NS -L from currently being Residential (vs. current RSF-2). I cannot attend the Planning Commission meeting today and would appreciate your inclusion of my opposition. My opposition is based on the following: Rezoning to NS-! is -not in alignment with the City Plan 2030 1. Plan stresses an "increase in economic value" - Adding additional commercial space is not warranted based on current excess available commercial space available throughout the city (especially in the immediate area of Crossover -Joyce + Crossover -Mission). There are -250 commercial properties available for sale or lease in Fayetteville, many in the immediate area being discussed. 2. In the 2030 Plan Residential Guiding Policies - "e. Encourage a development scale to maintain compatibility, use and proportionality between a variety of residential and nonresidential land uses." -There is sufficient non-residential space (build and open land) available a short walking or biking distance at the Crossover intersections of Mission / Joyce with sidewalks already connecting. Adding additional commercial space between these key hubs does not meet the intent to maintain "...compatibility, use and proportionality..." Additionally: 1. A clear plan has not been laid out for the use of this land if rezoned. 2. This topic is being revisited with the Planning Dept + Commission and has already been denied previously by the City Council. Thank you very much for your time and consideration in this matter Wichard Klaus WA Customer Supply 2 (513) 288-1800 Mobile I (513) 715-8058Eax "All Pricing, Promotion and Distribution decisions are at the sole discretion of the retailer.

To: Ron Autry Chair, Fayetteville Planning Commission From: Lowell Grisham, 310 N. Washington Ave. Subject: Agenda Berra '17-60341,2468 K Crossover Road Dear Ron: I would like to offer a personal word of confidence on behalf of Jerry Jones whose re- zoning proposal is coming to the Planning Commission at the upcoming meeting. (17- 6034; 2468 N. Crossover Rd.) I've known Jerry for over 20 years. He is an active parishioner at St. Paul's Church, and we've become friends as well, making regular times for lunch visits. I know Jerry to be an honest, conscientious man of integrity. I've been to his home several times, and I am familiar with the tract of land he wishes to re -zone. It seems to me appropriate for commercial development — professional office, etc. The property is on the divided 4 -lane thoroughfare of Crossover. I can't imagine anyone wanting to build a house on that busy location. My main purpose is not to argue the particular merits of his proposal, but just to say that Jerry is a good guy. I've found him to be trustworthy and good-hearted. Thank you for your public service on the commission. It is a hard job. You've got my appreciation. Gratefully, (Tie Rev.) Lowell Grisham 310 N. Washington Avenue To: Neighbors of Lynnwood Estates Subdivision From: Jerry Jones and Lynn Rogers, 2468 N Crossover Rd., Fayetteville, AR 72703 Date: December (TBD) Re: New Zoning for Lynnwood Estates Dear Neighbor, My wife, Lynn, and I have decided to return to the City of Fayetteville to request rezoning of Lynnwood Estates from RSF-2 (Residential Single Family — 2 Dwellings per Acre) to NS -L (Neighborhood Services — Limited). After visiting with the City of Fayetteville Planning Staff and our Realtor", we believe that this is the highest and best use of the property. Our main purpose all along has been to sell lots and have beautiful homes built. We had no idea that the widening of Crossover Road would have such a negative effect on selling the property. We have had developers and potential buyers look at the property numerous times, but they have shown no interest. All say they don't feel people would want to live on the highway. We haven't even had anyone make an offer or commitment in the over 11 years we have been attempting to sell. Can you imagine trying to sell your home for that long with no success? Lynn and I want this property to have something built on it that we can all be proud of, therefore we believe Neighborhood Services Limited will encourage professional weekday, daytime business services to locate here, such as dentists, attorneys, CPA's or a pleasant coffee shop. Offices that each of us can walk to for services that will have little to no impact on the traffic. Please look at this rezoning request as an opportunity for all of us. We have the support of the City of Fayetteville staff, and we sincerely ask for you to support us, too. We believe when the land is sold and the development opportunities are implemented, under strict City of Fayetteville and Planning Services oversight, we will all have something to be proud of. You will receive another letter from us about the time and place of the Planning Commission meeting to take comments from the general public.. Please call me with any questions or stop by. My mobile number is 479-841-8748. Thank you. Highest Regards, Your Neighbors, Jerry Jones Lynn Rogers REZONING APPLICATION DETAILS (5) a. Current ownership information and any proposed or pending property sales. The property is currently owned by Jerry W. Jones and Lynn B. Rogers. There are no sales pending. b. Reason (need) for requesting the zoning change. After Highway 265 was widened, which lasted from 2011 to its October 2013, interest in building a home on the busy highway became non-existent. We have listed our property with different realty companies, with no results. Coldwell Banker has been very aggressive, but the main objection has always been that people don't want to build a home on a busy highway. Three different developers and multiple potential buyers have looked at the property. All say the highway is the problem. Pricing hasn't been an issue, but we haven't had a single offer. You can see our predicament. c. Statement of how the proposed rezoning will relate to surrounding properties in terms of land use, traffic, appearance and signage. The property adjacent to and north of Lynnwood Estates was rezoned to RO approximately four years ago. Directly across the street is a large parcel owned by St. John's Lutheran Church. We counseled with our realtor and decided to ask the city to rezone our property from RSf-2 (2 houses per acre) to Neighborhood Services Limited. We feel this zoning will encourage weekday, daytime businesses to locate here (dentist, attorney, CPA etc.) Offices that each of us can walk to for services that will have little to no impact on traffic. The appearance, of the offices will be similar to residential and the signage will meet all of the City's requirements. d. Availability of water and sewer (state size of lines) info is available from the City Engineering Division. Water and sewer lines are already laid on the west side of the property. e. The degree to which the proposed zoning is consistent with land use planning objectives, principles and policies and with land use and zoning plans. There isn't any Neighborhood Services Limited zoning within a reasonable distance of the property. This site is a beautiful setting for professional office buildings. f. Whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time of the request. The area needs some professional services that are in walking distance of residents. g. Whether the proposed zoning will create or appreciably increase traffic danger and congestion. Since the widening of Crossover Road and changing it to one-way North, the NS -Limited zoning shouldn't increase the current traffic congestion or danger. h. Whether the proposed zoning will alter the population density and thereby undesirably increase the load on public services, including schools, and water and sewer facilities. Since so few buildings can be built on the limited space of 4.41 acres of Lynnwood Estates property, there should not be any load increase on public services. L Why would it be impractical to use the land for any of the uses permitted under its existing zoning classification? The present zoning of RSf-2 has failed to realize a willing buyer in years of attempts, making zoning that allows for professional offices and services the only truly viable option to sell the property.

I am hopeful that the City Council will not approve the rezoning of 4 acres posted for Crossover next to the Candlewood Subdivision. The potential uses allowed under NS -G would allow multifamily units and cluster housing in addition to a strip center. I am concerned with the added traffic and noise that will be inflicted on the subdivision. It is difficult for drivers traveling north to see traffic coming out of curb cuts due to elevation of Township. Cars can only turn north in or out, into high speed traffic. Hence some cars traveling south will cut through Candlewood or Edenbrook's private driveway. Crossover Rd. is part of the Mayor's Box, planned to move traffic around town with a minimum of stops and a maximum flow. That's why the posted speed limit is 45mph. School children walking to school face more traffic not paying attention to them. Additionally, there are walkers crossing Crossover on Township to go to Gulley Park. Finally, Candlewood subdivision has always been a highly desirable subdivision due to its locaton to schools and shopping centers. Increasing the multiuse area could impact the character of the subdivision and decrease the value of our property. Please reconsider the proposal and vote against the rezoning.

The only walkers are crossing Crossover on Township to go to Gulley Park. 2030 PLAN for CITY Crossover meant to be higher speed with minimal curb cuts City wants to avoid spot zoning.

I speak as a private citizen, not as an officer of the Candlewood POA. I'm concerned about this for many reasons, but primarily the following: 1. Traffic and safety concerns. Only northbound traffic on Crossover Road would be allowed access into and out of the establishment. Drivers coming southbound on Crossover would inevitably have to cut through Candlewood and/or Edenbrook to "turn around" and turn North at the light at the intersection of Township and Crossover in order to ultimately turn into the business establishment. We already have an after school parking problem on Candlewood Drive as for some reason parents of children who attend Vandegriff /McNair schools use Candlewood Drive as their personal parking lot to pick up their children. Let's don't compound it and make it even worse with cars cutting through Firewood and Candlewood Drive. School traffic currently park on both sides of Candlewood Drive, making it virtually impossible for cars to pass. Imagine the concerns we already have for our children's safety as even more drivers cut through our neighborhood and mostly ignore the posted speed limit on Candlewood Drive. 2. Concern over potential building heights of greater than 45 feet does not fit the adjacent area. Enough said. 3. This intersection is and has been for sometime mostly residential and has attracted citizens by the hundreds to live in neighborhoods surrounding the schools. Equally as important, these residents have invested invested an average of $400-600K to live in this area. And by the way we pay on average of $6,000 per year in property taxes. We trusted in our city/local governments to help protect our investment so that we could attend outstanding schools and support local businesses in this area. In other words, we chose Fayetteville, and may I (we) remind you we still have a choice. If the city agrees to make some of the proposed rezoning's that have been defeated repeatedly in the past, our residents could leave Fayetteville and move to Bentonville, Rogers or Springdale and take their property tax revenue with them which could potentially mean a loss of hundreds of thousands in lost property tax revenue to our Fayetteville Public Schools. And consider also the potential drop in Real Estate values which could also negatively impact revenue to our public schools in Fayetteville. Yet here we are again with another rezoning request that WE WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF. I'm very disappointed in my Councilman about the lack of notice.. I think that the residents in Candlewood, Covington Park and in Edenbrook have given enough. In Candlewood, we lost 40 feet of our beautifully landscaped entrance on Crossover already when the State widened the highway.

Crossover/Jones Hi Sondra, I am writing in hopes that you will pass this email along to the mayor and city council as the above issue is slated for review this evening. I reside at 2587 N Firewood Drive 72703 in the Candlewood subdivision. I attended the planning commission meeting in which they recommended the approval of the rezoning. Several issues of safety were raised by area residents as well as several on the commission itself. It was very evident that several of the commission members had made up their minds before the 'discussion' that night outright ignoring the safety concerns. Some of the safety concerns were: - Drivers traveling north on Crossover will go over a hill at the intersection of Township at 45-50 MPH and then immediately be upon the drives where the rezoning would take place. Even Mr. Jones made mention of the dangerous issue he has coming out of his driveway onto Crossover. - The intersection of Crossover and Township was not designed for U turns as it is in other places on Crossover. The only way to get to this rezoned area if coming south on Crossover would be by U-turn at the intersection or by entering township and then making a U turn where school children are present at certain times of day. - Residents may have the desire to walk to the rezoned area businesses. Although sidewalks are in place, its along a road that was designed to move traffic. I would not let my children walk there without supervision. Other concerns were made by residents and several commission members as well. Crossover was designed to be a road to move traffic north and south with minimal stops and maximum flow. Thus the 45 mph speed limit. By rezoning this parcel it lays the groundwork for future small parcels to be rezoned non-residential and thus significantly hinder traffic on Crossover. At present, Crossover between Joyce and Mission has significant slow downs and backups at the 'rush' hours of the day. There is also the historical 'domino' effect of such rezonings. Such a decision would open up other areas of Crossover to small retail/office. Not all at once but over time. Just think back to where College was at one point. But the immediate 'domino' effect in this particular case is found in the history of Mr. Jones's attempt to sell the property. He has tried to sell the property as residential for years according to him with no success. In order to increase the possibility of sale he joined with a neighbor behind him to create enough acreage for multiple dwellings and a small new street. This attempt to sell the combined property was also unsuccessful. So now Mr. Jones wants to rezone in a hope to sell his property. The 'domino' issue here is that the property of his neighbor will shortly be before the city asking for rezoning also. That will then put an even greater amount of retail/office at this location and cut back into the residential area. Setting a precedent of allowing retail/office rezoning to cut into neighborhoods, will most certainly make Fayetteville homeowners uncomfortable about any future subdivisions close to where rezoning could be an issue. In conclusion, while I laud Mr. Jones for trying this to sell his property, an individuals personal gains should not change the focus of an area or impede upon the residential values of their neighbors. This rezoning, and the soon to be rezoning of Mr. Jones's neighbor's adjacent parcel for sale, will in fact place offices in close proximity to no less than 9 houses in the Candlewood subdivision. (and not just the ones touching Crossover.) Thank you for your consideration and for your cooperation in leaving retail/office in areas where it has already been zoned for. William R.

I have attended the City Planning Commission meeting to oppose, along with other City Council meetings where this (similar) proposals were previously rejected by the City Council. I recommend you do the same today and going forward. live at 2649 N Firewood Dr, in Fayetteville. I do want to voice my additional concern that some of the people in support (land owner and developer) have previously communicated that they discussed this matter with neighbors in the area — this has not been the case with my household and we are only a few homes away — or with other neighbors we have talked to in the immediate area, so I want to ensure there is not a false perception that there is support (or lack of opposition) from this information being shared. My key concerns are: • Inconsistent with City 2030 plan, this area is planned for residential to minimize traffic disruption. Residential will have much less 'in and out' traffic than businesses. • Keep area residential. This is a quiet, peaceful area where children walk to school and I live. I do not need a business or other large structure in my back yard, especially not a 4 story business. This change is disruptive to the community. • No issues exist to develop land as residential (except that owner has the property highly overpriced) —There are many other homes all around the area of this land both north and south on Crossover Rd. • There is ample commercial space currently available in Fayetteville. Existing space that is empty or open land in areas already zoned commercial. Many already along Crossover in the planned commercial zones.

I am a resident of Covington park subdivision but I feel like with this rezoning being proposed near our subdivision, it would only increase the traffic volume and congestion we already experience. This area is already over congested during the morning hours and afternoon hours when school is in session. I don't understand why we would want to add more congestion to that area. Several dozen cars each day already cut through the candlewood subdivision to avoid the 265 / Township intersection. I'm concerned that any sort of business establishment that would be built on this property would just increase the traffic volume going through the Candlewood subdivision, especially on Firewood Lane. We are fortunate that no child has been hit by wayward traffic during these high traffic school hours, whether it be in Candlewood, Covington Park or any other subdivision in that vicinity. Please let me encourage you to vote against this rezoning and to prevent any further strip centers for being considered on this plot of land.

Dear City Clerk, I'm writing you to express my strong opposition to the Jones rezoning request near the crossover and mission intersection. I understand that the property owner's request, which has been recommended for approval by the Planning Commission, is for Neighborhood Services General, which includes commercial uses. This intersection currently serves as a primary access to Vandergriff Elementary and McNair Middle School, and serves as a primary access for several single family residential neighborhoods. Allowing Multifamily at this intersection would cause the intersection to become unsafe, both for our children and for travelers utilizing this high speed road. The crossover rd speed limit is 45 miles per hour, and isn't designed well for development of retail or high density residential nor is it appropriate for 45 ft tall buildings, which would be incompatible with the immediate area. Many children walk to school here and already have to battle less than desirable traffic congestion and speed. It would be a grave mistake to allow this type of zoning at this location and would be a danger to child safety because of the added traffic, crossover median and additional density that could be developed here. Furthermore, as I understand the 2030 plan, crossover rd is part of the "Mayor's Box" which specifically envisions a highway design that facilitates fluid and safe traffic flow around town with a minimum of stops and a maximum flow. That's why the posted speed limit is 45mph. There are so few arterials that carry heavy trc fic north and south, we can't afford to create a bottleneck of traffic at crossover and mission. Fayetteville is the most difficult city in Northwest Arkansas to traverse east to west, and this zoning would ensure the creation of similar issues with our primary and important north and south connector for east Fayetteville. We elect our mayor and city council to protect us from this type of change in land use and implore the Mayor and Council to reject the rezoning as inappropriate for the intersection. Additional traffic concerns. OTHER TRAFFIC/SAFETY CONCERNS ■ Difficult for drivers traveling north to see traffic coming out of curb cuts due to elevation of Township. Cars can only turn north in or out, into high speed traffic, so cars traveling south will cut through Candlewood or Edenbrook's private driveway.

The types of neighborhood commercial are not compatible with traffic patterns and there are already long lines of traffic to get children to school in the am and afternoons. I take and pick up grandchildren to vandegriff and Mcnair and can attest to the fact that residential is much more compatible than the request for rezoning. The amount of traffic generated by residential is small cf to the commercial.

My concerns as a newer neighbor to NWA and Fayetteville, it would seem there are still several factors or comments being shared that are in conflict and would require more discussion, review and consideration prior to a final vote being made. There are already quite nice (and walkable) business services being offered in close proximity. There are significant businesses that offer dry cleaning, coffee shops, small office, physicians and even larger retail establishments at Mission and Crossover. I have often walked to those locations when my car is in service at Firestone. Additionally, there are even more space and offerings at Joyce and Crossover which can be accessed by walking (getting to those 10,000 steps) or bicycle as well as driving. The zoning being requested already has open space in near proximity or with business owners who enjoy services the homes and families nearby in East Fayetteville. Read/heard (Mayor's Box) that the intent of the traffic was to keep flow active and moving which is more disruptive with business usage. There were also comments made that Mr. Jones had been trying to sell this for the past 11 years. I am recent to the area, yet have not seen signs of sale during my entire tenure. I have seen some for single family homes and would anticipate that residential that might be added to already in place, along Crossover between Township and Mission and Township and Old Wire would be a great addition to the school population. There are aspect of the children walking along the Candlewood neighborhood and the other major streets with cars trying to get access in and out (higher frequency with business or high density homes) would increase the hazards. Again, the traffic and intent was to move traffic through the area. The neighborhood being used as a cut -through adds danger for children and dogs. It would only increase with some of the proposed changes. As to other considerations, Mr. Jones has shared: _This has been on the market for 11+ years, again I have not see it posted during our entire tenure of almost three years. - He has shared he would not want some of the buildings that the school, the neighborhood, the walkers and the bike path riders enjoy with the traffic flow. Yet, Mr. Jones has quickly stated that once it is sold he cannot control that. -I have heard varied amounts listed as the appropriate value of the acreage and it seems that potentially Mr. Jones has a higher value per acre than the market average. The reality could be the reason for the inability to sell to residential property owners rather than zoning. The homeowners go in knowing the busy street and make a decision to be in and live in the area - at a price that may be a lower lot value - due to the location. - Mr. Jones shared he has spoken to the neighborhood and neighbors many times. Personally, I learned of this a day or two before the first zoning meeting. In asking other neighbors, it would seem many are/were unaware of the request. Some have even shared some interesting solutions that would benefit the neighborhood and Mr. Jones, yet there does not seem to be time allocated to the exchange of information. -Mr. Jones, I believe, requested a change in zone and now is immediately requesting a second change to the zoning request. It would seem this may have been the intent at the onset rather than being open in the first request to allow some time to see how the market can move his property without making further changes. - In speaking with other neighbors, when out on dog walks at school events, they have asked if Mr Jones would be willing to speak to us again before any decisions are made. We would come together as a neighborhood, along with Mr. Jones and maybe some of the other lot or property owners, which have been identified as future possible build sites to create a more optimal plan Thank you for your consideration in allowing the local neighbors and the land owners a bit more time, 60-90 days to understand what is already known from city planning and timing from the other land owners along with neighbors on Township, Crossover and Candlewood... to come together for a solution. So many of the comments are personal -as are mine. It took me by surprise and it seems that it is hard to really learn what was requested, is requested, value of land, asking price of land; how are other property lots in the area going to be affected, etc. I know we all love the area and want to reach an understanding with clarity to the factors to make a solid recommendation, review and discussion and decision.

As a resident of the Candlewood Subdivision, I like to voice my opposition against the rezoning request for 2468 Crossover/Jones that will be heard tonight by the Fayetteville City Council on second reading. I speak as a private citizen, not as an officer of the Candlewood POA. I'm concerned about this for many reasons, but primarily the following: 1. Traffic and safety concerns. Only northbound traffic on Crossover Road would be allowed access into and out of the establishment. Drivers coming southbound on Crossover would inevitably have to cut through Candlewood and/or Edenbrook to "turn around" and turn North at the light at the intersection of Township and Crossover in order to ultimately turn into the business establishment. We already have an after school parking problem on Candlewood Drive as for some reason parents of children who attend Vandegriff /McNair schools use Candlewood Drive as their personal parking lot to pick up their children. Let's don't compound it and make it even worse with cars cutting through Firewood and Candlewood Drive. School traffic currently park on both sides of Candlewood Drive, making it virtually impossible for cars to pass. Imagine the concerns we already have for our children's safety as even more drivers cut through our neighborhood and mostly ignore the posted speed limit on Candlewood Drive. 2. Concern over potential building heights of greater than 45 feet does not fit the adjacent area. Enough said. 3. This intersection is and has been for sometime mostly residential and has attracted citizens by the hundreds to live in neighborhoods surrounding the schools. Equally as important, these residents have invested invested an average of $400-600K to live in this area. And by the way we pay on average of $6,000 per year in property taxes. We trusted in our city/local governments to help protect our investment so that we could attend outstanding schools and support local businesses in this area. In other words, we chose Fayetteville, and may I (we) remind you we still have a choice. If the city agrees to make some of the proposed rezoning's that have been defeated repeatedly in the past, our residents could leave Fayetteville and move to Bentonville, Rogers or Springdale and take their property tax revenue with them which could potentially mean a loss of hundreds of thousands in lost property tax revenue to our Fayetteville Public Schools. And consider also the potential drop in Real Estate values which could also negatively impact revenue to our public schools in Fayetteville. Yet here we are again with another rezoning request that WE WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF. I'm very disappointed in my Councilman about the lack of notice.. I think that the residents in Candlewood, Covington Park and in Edenbrook have given enough. In Candlewood, we lost 40 feet of our beautifully landscaped entrance on Crossover already when the State widened the highway. Additionally, our friends in Covington Park and Edenbrook that live on Township have watched Traffic levels double and triple as drivers continue to use Township Rd to cut through to Hwy 45E. I could go on and on with multiple points, but I think you get the idea by now. I cannot attend the meeting in person this afternoon, but appreciate the opportunity to express myself and make my points above. My wife and I chose Fayetteville in 1988 because it is a beautiful city I believe has been recognized nationally for being a top -five place to live in the US. Let's keep it that way and help citizens protect their property values and keep their children safe while somehow finding creative ways to work with landowners along Crossover Rd.

I'm extremely concerned about this- the traffic is already an issue in our neighborhood (and at the crossover/ township intersection), especially in the mornings and afternoons. Not a single resident I have spoken with wants this- as it puts our kids in danger, and creates more traffic for our neighborhood, which will ultimately create more noise and lower home values. It's disturbing to me that this is even a consideration- Fayetteville just finished making crossover look beautiful again, and functional, and it seems it would ruin that. I don't want this, none of us do. I hope they take this seriously and listen to the residents, we want what's best for our kids and community. I wish i could be at the meeting tonight but still getting over the flu. Thanks in advance.

Worthington Way Fayetteville, AR 72703 Home: 442-8105 RE: proposed re -zoning of residential property NE corner of Crossover/Township We are strongly opposed to changing the zoning of the 4 acre property from residential to NS -G. Every day when I drive through Fayetteville, I am reminded of examples of past poor planning and poor decision-making that will haunt Fayetteville for years to come, from lack of connectivity in cul -de -sac -happy subdivisions to large single-family homes being built on postage stamp lots. Up for discussion now is to re -zone property on Crossover near Township that will open it to either commercial development or high-density housing. Here are our reasons against allowing that to happen and suggested alternatives: • The city should maintain some streets that are more 'boulevard —like', where it is pleasant just to drive along them. Don't mess this up. There are already commercial centers at Mission & Crossover and at Joyce & Crossover. Let those wanting to further commercialize fill in those centers, not stretch out and make Crossover an unpleasant 'strip'. • The number of apartments that have been added to Fayetteville in the past 5 years is staggering. We don't need apartments there- there are many other nice apartment places in town. • Adding apartments to an upscale neighborhood, as nice as they may be, still takes away from the flavor that is currently established by the surrounding single-family home neighborhoods. You start messing with that, and you start making Bentonville a better choice. ■ Fayetteville has plenty of places open to develop. You need to think long and hard before you allow re -zoning in areas that should be left as residential. Calling it 'neighborhood services' is just a euphemism for developer's greed.'
