CITY COUNCIL MEMO
SUBJECT: RZN-2022-000007: Rezone (457 E. 7TH ST./WHITSON, 563): Submitted by
CHRISTOPHER WHITSON for property located at 457 E. 7TH ST in Ward 1. The
property is zoned NC, NEIGHBORHOOD CONSERVATION and contains
approximately 0.23 acres. The request is to rezone the property to RI-U,
RESIDENTIAL INTERMEDIATE -URBAN.
RECOMMENDATION:
City planning staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of a request to rezone the
subject property as described and shown in the attached Exhibits `A' and `B'.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located southwest of the intersection of 7th Street and Wood Avenue. The
property contains one parcel totaling 0.23 acres which is currently developed with two single-
family dwellings which Washington County records indicate were built in 1992. The property lies
within the Walker Park Neighborhood Master Plan area, and the property received its current
zoning designation of NC, Neighborhood Conservation, as a result of that plan.
Request: The request is to rezone the subject property from NC, Neighborhood Conservation, to
RI-U, Residential Intermediate -Urban. The applicant has not shared a specific development
intent, though they have stated that RI-U would allow the property to be used for residential
purposes.
Public Comment: Staff received no public comment regarding this request.
Land Use Compatibility: Staff finds the proposed zoning to be compatible with the surrounding
land use patterns in the area. Land uses in the immediate vicinity are all residential in nature,
though they vary between single- and multi -family dwellings. The residential uses permitted by -
right in RI-U, which range between single- and four -family dwellings, would be compatible with
adjacent and surrounding properties. Existing residential lot sizes vary between 3,000 and
400,000 square feet with lot widths ranging between 28 and 300 feet. Since the subject property
currently has a lot width of 82 feet, the property could be subdivided into a maximum of four lots
if it were rezoned to RI-U. This would allow for lots that are comparable in size to those nearby.
The building setbacks for RI-U, which include a 0- to 25-foot build -to zone, and the height
Mailing Address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville, AR 72701
maximum of two to three stories would be similar to what is currently permitted under NC zoning.
Ultimately, staff finds that rezoning the property to RI-U would allow for a slight increase in density
which would complement the surrounding residential area. Additionally, the adjacent property to
the west was recently rezoned to DG with a Bill of Assurance which limited the uses permitted
by -right on that property to residential only. The rezoning of the neighboring property further
supports staff's finding since it suggests that a residential zoning district is most appropriate for
this site and indicates that the property is well -suited to support a greater variety of residential
development.
Land Use Plan Analysis: The proposed zoning is consistent with the property's City Plan 2040
Future Land Use Map designation as a Residential Neighborhood area. The RI-U zoning district
would allow for a mixture of residential densities that are urban in form. Staff finds that, if the
property were to be subdivided or redeveloped, RI-U would encourage an environment that is
more appealing to pedestrians and would reduce the visual impact of parking areas, particularly
in an area where most residences are setback more than 25 feet. The property has a high infill
score of seven which indicates that the site is prepared to accommodate a gentle increase in
housing. This could support goals one and six of City Plan 2040 by making infill a priority and
creating an opportunity for the development of more housing. With regard to the Walker Park
Neighborhood Master Plan, a rezoning to RI-U would support the guiding principle of balancing
uses and housing. Per the plan, ensuring a balance of uses and housing contributes to the overall
sustainability of the community by reducing the number of vehicle trips needed, and smaller lot
sizes exemplify a more sustainable pattern of development than conventional subdivisions. Also,
the variety in housing types permitted in RI-U could enable residents to remain in the Walker Park
neighborhood as their housing needs change.
CITY PLAN 2040 INFILL MATRIX: City Plan 2040's Infill Matrix indicates a score of 7 for this site.
The following elements of the matrix contribute to the score:
• Adequate Fire Response (Station #1, 303 W. Center St.)
• Near Sewer Main (eight -inch main, E. 7t" St.)
• Near Water Main (1.5-inch main, E. 7tn St.)
• Near City Park (Walker Park)
• Near Paved Trail (E. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.)
• Near ORT Bus Stop (Route 20)
• Within Walker Park Master Plan Area
DISCUSSION:
At the February 28, 2022 Planning Commission meeting, a vote of 7-0-0 forwarded the request
to City Council with a recommendation of approval. Commissioner Sharp made the motion and
Commissioner Garlock seconded. Commissioners offered little comment, finding the request to
be appropriate for this site. No public comment was offered at the meeting.

MEETING DATE: February 28, 2022 (Updated with results from 2/28/2022 PC hearing)
SUBJECT: RZN-2022-000007: Rezone (457 E. 7T" ST.MIHITSON, 563): Submitted
by CHRISTOPHER WHITSON for property located at 457 E. 7T" ST. The
property is zoned NC, NEIGHBORHOOD CONSERVATION and contains
approximately 0.23 acres. The request is to rezone the property to RI-U,
RESIDENTIAL INTERMEDIATE -URBAN.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends forwarding RZN-2022-000007 to the City Council with a recommendation of
approval, based on the findings herein.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"I move to forward RZN-2022-000007 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval."
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located southwest of the intersection of 7t" Street and Wood Avenue. The
property contains one parcel totaling 0.23 acres which is currently developed with two single-
family dwellings that were built in 1992. The property lies within the Walker Park Neighborhood
Master Plan area, and the property received its current zoning designation of NC, Neighborhood
Conservation, as a result of that plan. Surrounding land uses and zoning are listed in Table 1.

Request: The request is to rezone the subject property from NC, Neighborhood Conservation, to
RI-U, Residential Intermediate -Urban. The applicant has not shared a specific development
intent, though they have stated that RI-U would allow the property to be used for residential
purposes.
Public Comment: Staff has not received any public comment regarding this request.
INFRASTRUCTURE:
Streets: The subject property has frontage along E. 7th Street. 7th Street is a partially
improved Residential Link street with asphalt paving, partial sidewalk, and curb
and gutter. Any street improvements required in this area will be determined at the
time of development proposal.
Water: Public water is available to the subject property. An existing 1.5-inch water main is
present along the north side of 7th Street.
Sewer: Sanitary sewer is available to the subject property. An existing eight -inch sanitary
sewer main is present along the north side of 7th Street.
Drainage: No portion of the subject property lies within the Hillside -Hilltop Overlay District or
a FEMA floodplain. Additionally, no protected streams or hydric soils are present
on the subject property. Any improvements or requirements for drainage will be
determined at time of development.
Fire: Station 1, located at 303 W. Center Street, protects this site. The property is
located approximately 1.1 miles from the fire station with an anticipated drive time
of approximately four minutes using existing streets. The anticipated response time
would be approximately 6.2 minutes. Fire Department response time is calculated
based on the drive time plus one minute for dispatch and 1.2 minutes for turn -out
time. Within the city limits, the Fayetteville Fire Department has a response time
goal of six minutes for an engine and eight minutes for a ladder truck.
Police: The Police Department did not express any concerns with this request.
Tree Preservation:
The proposed zoning district of RI-U, Residential Intermediate -Urban, requires
15% minimum canopy preservation. The current zoning district of NC,
Neighborhood Conservation, requires 20% minimum canopy preservation.
CITY PLAN 2040 FUTURE LAND USE PLAN: City Plan 2040 Future Land Use Plan designates
the property within the proposed rezone as Residential Neighborhood area. The property is
also located within the Walker Park Neighborhood Master Plan area.
Residential Neighborhood areas are primarily residential in nature and support a wide variety
of housing types of appropriate scale and context. Residential Neighborhood encourages highly
connected, compact blocks with gridded street patterns and reduced building setbacks. It also
encourages traditional neighborhood development that incorporates low -intensity non-residential
uses intended to serve the surrounding neighborhoods. This designation recognizes the existing
conventional subdivision developments that may have large blocks with conventional setbacks
and development patterns that respond to features of the natural environment.
The Walker Park Neighborhood Master Plan was the city's first neighborhood plan which was
completed in 2008 after City Plan 2025 was adopted. Four guiding principles were identified in
the plan which include maintaining a balance of uses and housing, emphasizing connectivity and
walkability, creating a core of the neighborhood at Jefferson Square, and preserving accessible
greenspace throughout the neighborhood.
CITY PLAN 2040 INFILL MATRIX: City Plan 2040's Infill Matrix indicates a score of 7 for this site
with a weighted score of 8. The following elements of the matrix contribute to the score:
• Adequate Fire Response (Station #1, 303 W. Center St.)
• Near Sewer Main (eight -inch main, E. 7th St.)
• Near Water Main (1.5-inch main, E. 71h St.)
• Near City Park (Walker Park)
• Near Paved Trail (E. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.)
• Near ORT Bus Stop (Route 20)
• Within Walker Park Master Plan Area
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: Staff finds the proposed zoning to be compatible
with the surrounding land use patterns in the area. Land uses in the
immediate vicinity are all residential in nature, though they vary between
one-, two-, three-, and multi -family dwellings. The residential uses permitted
by -right in RI-U, which range between one- and four -family dwellings, would
be compatible with adjacent and surrounding properties. Existing residential
lot sizes vary between 3,000 and 400,000 square feet with lot widths ranging
between 28 and 300 feet. Since the subject property currently has a lot width
of 82 feet, the property could be subdivided into a maximum of four lots if it
were rezoned to RI-U. This would allow for lots that are comparable in size
to those nearby. The setback regulations for RI-U, which include a 0- to 25-
foot build -to zone, and the height maximum of two to three stories would be
similar to those currently required under NC zoning. Ultimately, staff finds
that rezoning the subject property to RI-U would allow for a slight increase
in density which would complement the surrounding residential area and
encourage housing types that would accommodate the demand for walkable
urban living. Additionally, the adjacent property to the west was recently
rezoned to DG with a Bill of Assurance which limited the uses permitted by -
right on that property to residential only. The rezoning of the neighboring
property further supports staff's finding since it suggests that a residential
zoning district is most appropriate for this site and indicates that the
property is well -suited to support a greater variety of residential
development.
Land Use Plan Analysis: The proposed zoning is consistent with the
property's City Plan 2040 Future Land Use Map designation as a Residential
Neighborhood area. The RI-U zoning district would allow for a mixture of
residential densities that are urban in form. Staff finds that, if the property
were to be subdivided or redeveloped, RI-U would encourage an
environment that is more appealing to pedestrians and would reduce the
visual impact of parking areas, particularly in an area where most residences
are setback more than 25 feet. The property has a high infill score of seven
which indicates that the site is prepared to accommodate a gentle increase
in housing. This could support goals one and six of City Plan 2040 by making
infill a priority and creating an opportunity for the development of more
housing. With regard to the Walker Park Neighborhood Master Plan, a
rezoning to RI-U would support the guiding principle of balancing uses and
housing. Per the plan, ensuring a balance of uses and housing contributes
to the overall sustainability of the community by reducing the number of
vehicle trips needed, and smaller lot sizes exemplify a more sustainable
pattern of development than conventional subdivisions. Also, the variety in
housing types permitted in RI-U would enable residents to remain in the
Walker Park neighborhood as their housing needs change.
2. A determination of whether the proposed zoning is justified and/or needed at the time the
rezoning is proposed.
Finding: Staff believes that there is sufficient justification for rezoning the property to
RI-U. Several surrounding properties are zoned NC, though they contain
uses that are not permitted by -right in that zoning district, including two- and
three-family dwellings. Rezoning to RI-U would allow for housing densities
that are comparable to the existing development pattern by -right on the
subject property.
3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase
traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: Rezoning the property to RI-U, which does not have a maximum density
requirement, has the potential to increase traffic along 7tn Street. That said,
the size of the property, which totals less than a quarter -acre, will naturally
limit the number of potential dwellings and subsequently reduce any
possible impacts on traffic danger or congestion.
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 NC to RI-U has the potential to increase the
population density in the area in a way that will not undesirably increase the
load on public services. The property has access to existing water and
sanitary sewer mains, and is close to fire and other public facilities, which
suggests that rezoning will not strain existing services.
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;
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

As part of our request to the commission to rezone into Residential Intermediate — Urban -
Regarding the compatibility of the proposed rezoning with neighboring property:
We believe that the compatibility of the subject property with the zoning of neighboring properties is
justified by the following:
1. The property directly adjacent to ours on the west (335 E 7th Street) has been rezoned to
Downtown General (DG), the property directly across the street (418/424 E 7th Street) from that
has been rezoned to RMF-12, and a third property within that same block (435/437 E Martin
Luther King Jr) has been rezoned into RI-U. The property lines of all three of these are within a
200 foot radius of our property line.
2. Extending the radius to 1000 feet from our property line encompasses a wide variety of
properties that have been rezoned into either of Downtown General (DG), Residential Multi -
Family (RMF-12), and Residential Intermediate -Urban.
Why the proposed rezoning will not unreasonably adversely affect or conflict with surrounding land
uses.
Coupled with the reasoning above, rezoning this property will not adversely affect/conflict with
neighboring land uses because Residential Intermediate — Urban continues to maintain that the
property be used for residential purposes only.
