CITY OF
IPFAYETTEVILLE CITY COUNCIL MEMO
ARKANSAS
MEETING OF JULY 14, 2020
TO: Mayor and City Council
THRU: Susan Norton, Chief of Staff
Garner Stoll, Development Services Director
FROM: Mary McGetrick, Long Range Planner
Devin Howland, Director of Economic Vitality
DATE: July 9, 2020
SUBJECT: Emergency use of ROW and Metered Parking Spaces by Restaurants, Bars,
and Other Businesses who hold alcohol permits
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is recommending approval of an emergency ordinance which streamlines the sidewalk
café process and parklet development process for use by restaurants, bars, performance
venues, and other businesses.
BACKGROUND:
While the use of sidewalk space and parking spaces are currently allowed through the sidewalk
café permit process and tactical urbanism process, this ordinance expedites the process for
businesses wishing to utilize one or both in hopes of providing safer options for expanded social
distancing during the pandemic.
DISCUSSION:
This ordinance waives the fees and permitting steps associated with obtaining sidewalk café
permits (such as the application process, notification requirements, application fees, and posting
of a surety bond), but retains the provisions which ensures their safe use and that ADA access
is maintained. This adjustment would enable various businesses such as a restaurant, to
explore on their own if sidewalk seating is something their business could benefit from during
the pandemic. This amendment would interface well with the Outdoor Refreshment Ordinance
and allow businesses the opportunity to be creative and try new things quickly without remitting
fees or permit review. Sidewalk cafes could be utilized by restaurants, bars, performance
venues and other businesses looking to expand outdoor seating.
This ordinance also encourages expanded use of parklets within City-owned right-of-way by
developing a set of guidelines, that if followed, enable development and use without an initial
development services review. This approach replaces regulatory provisions by providing
technical assistance to businesses. Parklets could be developed by any business looking to
expand their services to a safe outdoor environment.

Fayetteville, AR 72701
Section two amends the sidewalk café provisions of the entertainment district ordinance in
anticipation of the Outdoor Refreshment Area's being utilized in other places throughout the
City. Currently, staff has been able to permit the outdoor services areas and sidewalk café
permits without any issue due to the abundance of right-of-way and sidewalks in Downtown.
Other areas throughout the City that will likely be utilized for expanded outdoor service will
not be adjacent to public streets or sidewalks. However, their parking lots, lawns, and patios
may not be within their Alcoholic Beverage Control Division permit area. Once other ORAs
have been established, customers would still be able to take alcoholic refreshments outside,
even without the business going through the ABC Outdoor Service Area process. This
alteration would also be applicable to bars as well, whereas the ABC Outdoor Service Area
process is limited to restaurants.

Parklet Design Guidelines
2
PARKLET DESIGN
The parklet design and location shall conform to the following design guidelines, as well as any additional
standards made at the discretion of the Development Services Department.
Each parklet shall be limited to utilizing no more than three (3) parking spaces directly adjacent to the
applicable business and located at least one parking stall from a corner and other parklets.
2. CORNER LOCATIONS
The proposed parklet site shall be located at least one parking spot from a corner or protected by a bollard,
sidewalk bulb-out, or other similar feature, if located at the corner.
Parklets are permitted where the posted speed limit is 30 mph or less. Streets with higher speed limits may be
considered on a case-by-case basis.
Parklets must be situated on streets with a running slope (grade) of five percent or less or provide a level surface
to meet this grade.
5. BUFFERS & SAFETY ELEMENTS
Parklets shall be required to have a buffer to protect users from street traffic. Buffers can be either reflective
tape, planters, durable seating,temporary railing/edging, or other visible, protective edging as approved by staff
in the application process. Parklets shall be required to have soft hit posts and wheel stops. Parklets must be
situated a minimum of 2 feet from the nearest edge of traveled way. Planters used as edging features are
required to be large and durable.
Parklets shall not be allowed in front of a fire hydrant, or over a manhole, public utility valve, or cover. Curb and
roadside drainage shall not be impeded by the parklet. If decking is being constructed,the decking should allow
for easy access underneath and curbside drainage shall not be impeded.A gap of 6" should be maintained
between the body of the deck and the asphalt to facilitate the movement of water.
7. ADA REQUIREMENTS
All elements of Parklets shall be constructed and/or installed to conform to the applicable provisions, rules,
regulations, and guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA).Tables

Parklets are temporary in nature and must be designed for easy removal. All removable furniture must be locked
or stowed each night.
9. PARKLET DECKING
Parklet decking must be flush with the curb and may not have more than 1/2"gap from the curb. If decking is
installed, a minimum 36" ADA accessible entryway to the parklet must be maintained. Platforms shall not
exceed a 2%cross slope. Deck installation shall not damage the sidewalk,street, curb, or any aspect of the
public right-of-way. Due to the temporary nature of the parklet, any proposed decking shall not be allowed to
be bolted into the asphalt and must must include semi-permanent materials installed in a way that does not
require reconfiguring the roadway or pouring concrete.
All proposed edging shall be visually permeable. Due to the temporary nature of the parklets, all edging or
railing shall not be bolted to the asphalt. The temporary railing shall be durable enough to stand on its own and
should have a sturdy base.
11. VISUAL DESIGN
Parklet designs must maintain a visual connection to the street and not obstruct sight lines to existing
businesses or roadway signage. While not visible from the sidewalk, the parklet's back is highly visible
from across the street. Large blank walls, therefore, are discouraged.
12 MATERIALS
Materials should be high quality, durable,waterproof, and capable of withstanding heavy use and exposure to
the elements. Loose particles such as sand or loose stone are not permitted within the parklet area. All furniture
must be designed for outdoor use.The following images outline allowed material and furniture types. Sofas as
parklet furniture is prohibited. All materials and seating or table constructions and configurations are subject to
inspection and may require a permit at the discretion of Development Services Department staff.
