City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
Garner Stoll, Development Services Director stated he did not have any additional information.
Jim Burgin, Applicant gave a brief PowerPoint presentation and requested for Council to approve
the rezoning. He spoke about the Planning Commission approving the request. He spoke about the
VA Hill Association concerns.
Mayor Jordan gave the rules for public speaking.
Mary Cay Crow, VA Hills Neighborhood spoke in opposition of the ordinance.
Branton Moore, 400 West Patricia Lane spoke in opposition of the ordinance.
Sarah Moore, 400 West Patricia Lane spoke in opposition of the ordinance.
Eric Parkinson, 335 Holly, Field Captain for the VA Home Neighborhood Association spoke in
opposition of the ordinance.
Susan Drouilhet, 1119 Shady Lane spoke in opposition of the ordinance.
There was a brief discussion about the possible housing that could occur on the lot.
Council Member Smith: What's currently there, is it conforming with the existing zoning?
Garner Stoll: It's approximately 150 x 150, so the lot frontage requirements would be met. You
could probably do two homes in the present zoning.
Council Member Marsh: On the two homes, those could each additionally have two accessory
dwelling units?
Garner Stoll: That is true.
Council Member Marsh: It would bring the lot total up to six dwelling units on the existing
zoning?
Garner Stoll: Yes. The accessory dwelling units would be capped at a total of 1,200 square feet
per lot.
Council Member Marsh: It would be two, 600 square foot units.
Council Member Marsh moved to suspend the rules and go to the third and final reading.
Council Member Gray seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed 7-0. Council
Members Marsh, Kinion, Petty, Tennant, Bunch, Smith, and Gray voting yes. Council
Member La Tour was absent.

City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
Council Member Kinion: Whenever we are talking about RI -12, we can have up to six residential
units. Some of these can be duplexes. Are they all single family still?
Garner Stoll: It's a bit more than a third of an acre. It is capped at 12 units per acre. It allows four
dwelling units.
Council Member Kinion stated they are not looking at a large student complex that's changing
the nature of the corner dramatically. He stated it's still going to be individual units, basically. He
spoke about it being a historic neighborhood. He stated they have to look at creeping into the
neighborhood and destroying the heritage. He spoke about parking concerns on Holly Street. He
is hopeful it will be developed appropriately so there isn't overoccupancy in the units and create
affordable rental housing. He spoke about safety.
Council Member Tennant requested Kit Williams to discuss rezoning rules when it comes to
talking about a development.
City Attorney Kit Williams: The only time you can rezone for a project, is if there was a Planned
Zoning District (PZD) proposed, and you could see potentially what the project was. A normal
rezoning request is rezoning the parcel and it could have all kinds of uses on it. You can look at
the uses and see if they are compatible with the existing neighborhood.
Garner Stoll: If a three-plex or four-plex is proposed, it would be a Large Scale Development and
would have to go to the Planning Commission for approval. A single family duplex would not.
There was a brief discussion about Accessory Dwelling Units.
Council Member Smith: If it was a three-plex or four-plex, what sort of review would be done
on the state of Lawson Street?
Garner Stoll: We would look at storm drainage, sidewalks, and upgrading that street.
Council Member Smith: The access would be on to Gregg, instead of Lawson. As far as our
access management at the intersection, how would the two different street classifications work for
a development?
Garner Stoll: Gregg is a minor arterial. Lawson is a local street.
Council Member Smith: Would they be able to choose to put their access onto Gregg instead of
Lawson?
Garner Stoll: It is a possibility. There is a downhill issue. I suspect traffic engineering staff will
encourage access off Lawson. It is a much safer configuration.

Council Member Kinion: With the current zoning with the three units, plus two ADU's, that
would be five units. With the new zoning, the maximum would be four units.
Garner Stoll: The ability to do an ADU is not associated with the zoning district. It's associated
with the use. You could do an ADU if you have a single-family use in a RI -12 district. That
possibility of doing an ADU is constant, whether you rezone it or not.
Council Member Kinion: If we did the ADU in the new zoning, it could bring it up to six?
Garner Stoll: Yes, if they do single-family. ADU's are only associated with single-family.
Council Member Kinion: It's still under the current use and the new use. The density is not
exceptionally different, but it is being presented that it's exceedingly different.
Garner Stoll: The ADU ordinance has a specific provision that the ADU does not count towards
the density. The ADU isn't subject to that 12 -unit cap.
Council Member Kinion: You are saying 12 -unit and that's where there is confusion. 12 -unit per
acre, but we don't have the acreage here?
Garner Stoll: Yes.
Council Member Marsh: If we were to leave the zoning the same and they preserved the existing
structures, they could still add one or two ADU's?
Garner Stoll: Two.
Council Member Marsh: If we were to leave the zoning the same, but they still redeveloped the
property, there is enough land area to have two single-family homes, but each of those single-
family homes could have two ADU's?
Garner Stoll: Yes.
Council Member Marsh: That would get us to six units. If we rezone it to RI -12, due to the size
of the property, we would have a maximum of a four-plex on there. A four-plex does not qualify
to get ADU's, so we would have a smaller number of units with the up -zone. By having the multi-
family component, they would have to go through the Large Scale Development process. It would
trigger reviews of storm water, tree protection, and a lot of additional environmental protections
that would not apply if it remains a single-family zone.
Council Member Kinion stated he has received letters from citizens and the math was not adding
up with the density. He stated people who are the most fearful about the increased density, aren't
adding up the math at the current possibility and looking at the rezoning.
Council Member Petty stated he agrees with Council Member Kinion about the difference not
being as large as has been described. He stated it wouldn't be appropriate for Council to consider
what the more basic intentions of the applicant are. He stated they need to consider the proposal

on its merits. He stated it's not fair for Council to be asked to protect the neighborhood from
somebody who is profit motivated and then be asked to protect the speculative investments of
homeowners who are already there. He stated if you buy a home with the intention of making
money on it at a future sale, then they are a real estate speculator. He stated he is troubled by
notions about what a neighborhood is like today and what a neighborhood might be like if it were
to change a little bit. He stated there's nothing better about one neighborhood compared to most
other neighborhoods. He stated there are quality neighborhoods that have a much more diverse
mix of housing that lots of people would be proud to live in.
Council Member Gray: What are the implications for the other lots in the neighborhood?
Garner Stoll: We have a request for a similar zoning for this lot just to the north. The future land
use map of the 2030 Plan envisions higher density zoning in the city neighborhood area. The
applications were found to be consistent with the plan. The intent is to show higher density
development on the major street and recognize the eclectic area to receive additional protections
when the plan was put together. It was drafted with the frontage on Gregg Avenue.
Council Member Gray: Are lots in this neighborhood large enough to accommodate a taller
building that would be like a big apartment if we changed the zoning?
Garner Stoll: Yes, there are some large parcels.
Council Member Gray: That would be a concern for the neighbors. I am amazed at the number
of apartments going up in the city and I'm not against that. It has made me listen to the
neighborhoods with a little different thought process.
Council Member Kinion: The city neighborhood area on the map that is in blue, ends at Lawson
Street. If we are going to respect the published future land use map, then this is the end of the line
for the city neighborhood area. If you have a vision of what the neighborhood is and looking at the
future land use map, it is protected. It would be out of character, of this map we have approved, to
go to a higher density anywhere in the yellow on the map.
Mayor Jordan asked shall the ordinance pass. Upon roll call the ordinance passed 6-1.
Council Members Marsh, Kinion, Petty, Tennant, Bunch, and Smith voting yes. Council
Member Gray voting no. Council Member La Tour was absent.
Ordinance 6100 as Recorded in the office of the City Clerk
Repeal Article XXVIII City Board of Health: An ordinance to repeal Article XXVIII City
Board of Health in Chapter 33 Departments, Boards, Commissions and Authorities of the
Fayetteville City Code. At the October 2, 2018 City Council meeting this ordinance was left on the first
reading.
Council Member Kinion moved to suspend the rules and go to the second reading. Council
Member Tennant seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed 6-0. Council

Members Kinion, Petty, Tennant, Bunch, Smith, and Gray voting yes. Council Member
Marsh was absent during the vote. Council Member La Tour was absent.
City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
David Dayringer, Fire Chief gave a brief description of the ordinance. He stated there was no
opposition to disbanding the Board of Health by the committee members.
Council Member Petty stated the staff report says that repealing the board may have implications
for managing things outside the city limits within the planning area.
David Dayringer: There is a provision for instances of disease or quarantine issues that the Board
of Health's authority can extend outside the city limits by one mile.
Council Member Petty: In the event of outbreak, not for routine planning purposes?
David Dayringer: I don't think it means for anything other than Board of Health issues.
Council Member Kinion: Nuisance issues such as a race track across the street from the city,
weren't they considered by this?
City Attorney Kit Williams: Yes. That is why I originally proposed this.
Council Member Kinion: I have a concern about disbanding this because of the potential of a
nuisance within one mile of the city limits. We have seen this in the past. A potential nuisance
could be a quarry. If there was an industrial use that was loud or impairing the quality of life in the
city, but it was located outside the city limits and seen as a nuisance, we would need to have this
committee to look at the complaint. I don't want to disband the committee.
Mayor Jordan: This is not coming from me and Chief Dayringer. We met with the chairman and
the committee and they wanted to disband it. We haven't had a quorum in over a year. It was
explained to us that the state would perform the same services.
City Attorney Kit Williams: I originally proposed to have this Board of Health established
because there is a state statute that says a city can abate a nuisance within the jurisdiction of the
Board of Health. The jurisdiction of the Board of Health says up to a mile. To be safe, when we
started to try to regulate the nuisance of Thunder Valley, I thought we should have a Board of
Health so we couldn't be challenged on jurisdiction. We established a Board of Health and the
City Council passed ordinances regulating the race track to keep it from becoming a nuisance. It's
not clear about whether we must have them to regulate another potential nuisance, if that's true,
and the court would tell us that if we ever try to do it again, then we could reinstitute the Board of
Health. We should not ask them to continue to meet and repeal the Board of Health. If we need it
in the future, I will be the first one to tell you we need to get it going again.
There was a brief discussion about the historical aspect of the board.

Council Member Smith: Did Thunder Valley come through the Board of Health or did they just
provide the jurisdiction?
City Attorney Kit Williams: It did not go through the Board of Health. It came directly to the
City Council. I was using the statute that said we could regulate within the jurisdiction of the Board
of Health.
Council Member Smith: The authority still exists to reinstate if the need arises?
City Attorney Kit Williams: Yes.
Council Member Smith: Is there a financial cost to keeping it?
David Dayringer: There is no budget.
Don Marr, Chief of Staff. No more financial cost than any other committee supported by staff.
Council Member Gray moved to suspend the rules and go to the third and final reading.
Council Member Smith seconded the motion.
Members Marsh, Kinion, Petty, Tennant, F
Member La Tour was absent.
City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
Upon roll call the motion passed 7-0. Council
unch, Smith, and Gray voting yes. Council
Council Member Petty: Is there any bonding, taxing or similar authority granted to this board?
City Attorney Kit Williams: Their main power was to establish a quarantine if ever needed. This
statute goes back to 1908. Back then, TB, smallpox, and polio could be epidemic and you might
need a Board of Health to protect the city. There was never any bonding or anything else like that.
Council Member Kinion: After hearing the discussion, I have changed my point of view. Thank
you to this board for their service.
Don Marr, Chief of Staff. On these health-related issues, we work closely with the state health
department, just as we did with the flu last year. We are not detached from the state or the county
as it relates to these items. We are in close communications with them if we have a need in the
future.
Mayor Jordan: If we have an emergency, we can get a meeting together quickly.
Mayor Jordan asked shall the ordinance pass. Upon roll call the ordinance passed 7-0.
Council Members Marsh, Kinion, Petty, Tennant, Bunch, Smith, and Gray voting yes.
Council Member La Tour was absent.

RFQ 18-11 Nabholz Construction Corporation: A resolution to authorize a contract with
Nabholz Construction Corporation, pursuant to RFQ 18-11, for Construction Manager at Risk
Services for the Cultural Arts Corridor Project, to approve Phase One pre -construction services in
an amount not to exceed $80,000.00, and to approve a Phase One project contingency in the
amount of $8,000.00.
Wade Abernathy, Building Maintenance Supervisor gave a brief description of the resolution.
Council Member Kinion: This is being completely funded by the Walton Family Foundation and
we approve it in our budget?
Wade Abernathy: Yes, Phase 1.
Council Member Kinion stated he'd received letters with inaccurate information and appreciated
the clarification. He thanked the Walton Family Foundation for their support.
Council Member Marsh moved to approve the resolution. Council Member Gray seconded
the motion. Upon roll call the resolution passed 7-0. Council Members Marsh, Kinion, Petty,

Resolution 217-18 as recorded in the office of the City Clerk
R-PZD 18-6252 (North of N. Old Missouri Rd. & E. Zion Rd./Sagely Place S/D): An ordinance
to approve a Residential Planned Zoning District entitled R-PZD 18-6252 for approximately 22.13
acres located north of the intersection of North Old Missouri Road and East Zion Road to allow
the development of 111 attached and detached dwelling units and a future clubhouse with a pool.
City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
Garner Stoll, Development Services Director gave a brief description of the ordinance. The
Planning Commission and staff recommends approval.
Blake Murray, Engineering Services for the Applicant stated there were six recommendations
from the Planning Commission and they have agreed and updated the plans. He spoke about the
topography of item number five. He gave a brief description of the plan.
City Attorney Kit Williams: You agree with the six terms, except number five. Are you saying
that is too difficult to do?
Blake Murray: Yes. The grades will have to have steps coming down. There are some similar
situations on the subdivision to the east of the development.

City Attorney Kit Williams: Garner, have you examined that and in agreement to remove number
five?
Garner Stoll: I was under the impression they could meet it. This is the first I have heard there is
a problem. It is written softly and we can take another look at that.
City Attorney Kit Williams: I don't think it's softly enough. If this passes as is, they are going
to have to find a way to do it. We need to get this resolved by the Council and Planning before we
go forward.
Garner Stoll: Planning Commission was trying to promote the neighborliness you get when the
sidewalk and front porches are at the same level. It was a valid goal. Whether we can achieve it in
its purest form is something we can look at.
Council Member Tennant: Sounds like we may leave this on the first reading. What are the price
ranges and square footage for this size home?
Blake Murray: It's 1,700 to 2,200 square feet.
Council Member Tennant: I can make an educated guess what the price is going to be based on
what is right down the road. In east Fayetteville, we have a lot of different types of homes. I would
argue the smaller units like these are more in demand over there more than ever before. There's
no access out of the north side of this property to get to the Lake Fayetteville area or the trail area.
Correct?
Garner Stoll: There are two stub outs to the north. One on the west end and one in the center. The
land to the north is private property. When that develops, these would be connected.
Council Member Tennant: In theory you could build it for future access that way in either roads,
walkability or trails?
Garner Stoll: Yes.
Council Member Tennant: One of the most needed areas of improvement to the roads and
sidewalks is the area of Zion. In this area, along with the apartments across the street, you have a
difficult time walking to the trail area of the Lake Fayetteville trail where the bridge is in the play
area. People are concerned about traffic and being able to walk east or west. There is the future
possibility for at least a walking trail north, which could be a great selling point to the trail system.
Garner Stoll: Engineering staff has designed a collector street from Vantage to Crossover. It
would be 30 -foot collector width with striped bikeways and sidewalks.
Council Member Tennant: I was driving home and a lady was walking in the ditch across from
the apartments because there's no sidewalk. We have to fix that.
Garner Stoll: It has been designed to construction level. It awaits funding.

Council Member Tennant: We need to fund that.
Don Marr, Chief of Staff. It's on the Transportation list the committee reviewed in the initial
bond.
Lance Weatherton, Homeowners Association President for Lakewood Subdivision stated he
doesn't necessarily object to the development, but wants the City Council to take in consideration
the traffic impact. He spoke about the traffic count. He requested for the development to be
postponed until East Zion Road has the appropriate infrastructure.
This item was left on the First Reading.
RZN 18-6319 (2234 E. Zion Rd./Sagely Place): An ordinance to rezone that property described
in rezoning petition RZN 18-6319 for approximately 2.53 acres located at 2234 East Zion Road
from R -A, Residential Agricultural to NS -G, Neighborhood Services — General.
City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
Garner Stoll, Development Services Director gave a brief description of the ordinance. The
Planning Commission and staff recommends approval.
Blake Murray, Engineering Services for the Applicant stated it was intended originally to be a
mixed-use design and they had it all grouped together in the PZD. He stated Planning staff asked
them to remove it and make it its own rezone.
Council Member Tennant: Can you verify the size limits of the buildings in the area?
Garner Stoll: Nonresidential is 8,000 square feet. You could have 8,000 square feet nonresidential
and additional residential on additional floors. It allows up to three stories.
Council Member Tennant: If you have an 8,000 square foot building, it can be split up however
you want in nonresidential form?
Garner Stoll: Yes. It has a build to line. No parking between the building and the street.
Council Member Tennant: This faces the street. Any improvements that needed to be made there
would need to be made before this could be built. The parking would have to be around the back?
Garner Stoll: Yes, side or back.
Member Marsh moved to suspend the rules and go to the second reading. Council Member
Gray seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed 7-0. Council Members Marsh,
Kinion, Petty, Tennant, Bunch, Smith, and Gray voting yes. Council Member La Tour was

City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
Council Member Tennant: I'm concerned about sending this one all the way through. I know
they are two different ones, but the applicant asked for it to be combined and Planning Commission
wanted them to separate it?
Blake Murray: Planning staff. It was to make it less complicated. They are not connected at all
because we don't have any official design for what that's going to be.
Council Member Tennant stated he wanted to hold it on the second reading to allow more public
comment.
Council Member Bunch stated she would like to allow more public input and hold it on the
second reading.
Council Member Smith: Since the parking is going to be at the back, would those parking lots
be accessible from the neighborhood side?
Blake Murray: No. Those are very steep.
This item was left on the Second Reading.
RZN 18-6341 (1248 S. Washington Ave./Sugarland Properties): An ordinance to rezone that
property described in rezoning petition RZN 18-6341 for approximately 0.24 acres located at 1248
South Washington Avenue from NC, Neighborhood Conservation to RI -U, Residential
Intermediate — Urban.
City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance.
Garner Stoll, Development Services Director gave a brief description of the ordinance. The
Planning Commission and staff recommends approval.
Michael Ward, Property Owner Representative stated he was available for questions.
Karen Bley, 1067 South Washington spoke in opposition of the ordinance.
Kathleen Conway, 1007 Morningside Drive spoke in opposition of the ordinance. She requested
to know why the developer wanted to remain anonymous.
Garner Stoll: I wasn't aware that the developer was anonymous.
City Attorney Kit Williams: I think the developer said he did not want the potential owner to be
known. To apply for rezoning there should be some evidence that someone has a property interest
in this land to justify requesting it to be rezoned.

Alexandra Curtis, 9th Street spoke in opposition of the ordinance.
Lisa Meeks, 1230 South Washington Avenue spoke in opposition of the ordinance.
Deborah Kitz, 1127 South Washington requested Council to limit the height of what might go on
the property and consider the family units allowed.
Council Member Bunch: When you look at what can be established on property in the NC zoning
and RI -U zoning, they are not that different in what is allowed. You can allow some of the same
things in NC only with a conditional use permit. I will be considering these things as we go through
this process.
Mayor Jordan stated he wanted to study the item more.
This item was left on the First Reading.

Don Marr, Chief of Staff gave a brief description of upcoming events. Information can be viewed
