CITY COUNCIL MEMO
2023-500
SUBJECT: RZN-2023-0003: Rezoning (1275 N. GREGG AVE/PATHWAY BAPTIST CHURCH,
405): Submitted by BLEW & ASSOCIATES for property located at 1275 N. GREGG
AVE in WARD 2. The property is zoned RMF-24, RESIDENTIAL MULTI -FAMILY —
TWENTY FOUR UNITS PER ACRE and contains approximately 2.24 acres. The
request is to rezone the property to RMF-40, RESIDENTIAL MULTI -FAMILY — 40
UNITS PER ACRE.
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 roughly 350 feet north of the intersection of W. North Avenue and N. Gregg
Avenue. The site covers roughly the southern half of a single lot of record totaling approximately 2.24 acres.
The property is zoned RMF-24, Residential Multi -Family, 24 Units per Acre and currently the site of Central
Baptist Church, a single-family dwelling, and associated outbuildings.
Request: The request is to rezone the property from RMF-24, Residential Multi -Family, 24 Units per Acre to
RMF-40, Residential Multi -Family, 40 Units per Acre.
Public Comment: Staff received public comment in support of the request. The commenter stated they were in
favor of additional density along the Gregg Avenue corridor.
Land Use Compatibility: Staff finds the request to be compatible with the surrounding mix of uses. The
surrounding area includes two multi -family developments, a church, and single-family dwellings across N.
Gregg Avenue to the east. The permitted and conditional uses are identical between RMF-40 and RMF-24.
Staff also finds that the bulk and area regulations are suitable and not out of context with surrounding
properties. Single- and two-family lot widths and areas are required to be slightly larger in RMF-24 than in
RMF-40 but otherwise the two districts are very similar. Setbacks and maximum building heights are identical.
Given that the site adjoins other multi -family developments and zoning entitlements, staff finds the scale of
what would be allowed is contextually appropriate. Single-family dwellings are prevalent in the area, but they
are separated from the site by the intervening public street. Based on a simple calculation of the acreage of the
Mailing address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville, AR 72701
site, and notwithstanding requirements for drainage, tree preservation, and parking, the increased density
would allow for 89 total units across the site where the current zoning would allow 53 units to be developed.
Staff finds the increased density is suitable due to the site's proximity to schools, work, jobs, and a multi -modal
transportation network. Further the increased density is unlikely to have a noticeably different impact to the
immediately surrounding multi -family developments.
Land Use Plan Analysis: Staff finds the proposal to be consistent with the goals in City Plan 2040 and the
future land use designation for this location. Rezoning from RMF-24 to RMF-40 serves to contribute towards
City Plan 2040 goals #1 — Appropriate Infill and 4 — Growing a Livable Transportation Network. The site scores
high on the Infill Scoring Matrix indicating that the site, as its currently developed, is not meeting its highest and
best use. The proposed rezoning would locate additional residential density near groceries, two city parks, and
between two significant employers: the veteran's hospital to the northeast and the University of Arkansas main
campus less than a half -mile to the south, as well as the nearby transit route and trail.
CITY PLAN 2040 INFILL MATRIX: City Plan 2040's Infill Matrix indicates 10 attributes for this site that may
contribute to appropriate infill. The following elements of the matrix contribute to the score:
• Adequate Fire Response (Station #2, 708 N. Garland Avenue)
• Near Sewer Main (8" sewer main, N. Gregg Avenue)
• Near Water Main (8" water main, N. Gregg Avenue)
• Near Grocery Store (Harps, 1189 N. Garland Avenue)
• Near City Park (Wilson Park, Gregory Park)
• Near Paved Trail (Scull Creek Trail)
• Near University of Arkansas Main Campus
• Near Ozark Regional Transit Stop (Route 10, N. College Avenue)
• Near Razorback Bus Stop (Route 26 Peak, N. Leverett Avenue)
• Appropriate Future Land Use (City Neighborhood Area)
DISCUSSION:
At the February 27, 2023 Planning Commission meeting, a vote of 8-0-0 forwarded the request to City Council
with a recommendation of approval. Commissioner Brink made the motion and Commissioner Garlock
seconded. Commissioners discussed whether rezoning to CS, Community Services would be a more
compatible request. Members discussed differences in setbacks, building area, and density limitations between
RMF-40 and CS. After the applicant confirmed that the prospective buyers of the property intended to rezone
to RMF-40, the motion was made to forward the item as requested. No members of the public spoke during the
meeting.

INFRASTRUCTURE AND ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Streets: The subject area has frontage along N. Gregg Avenue. N. Gregg Avenue is a
partially -improved Neighborhood Link Street with asphalt paving, curb and gutter,
and sidewalk located at the back of curb. Any street improvements required in
these areas would be determined at the time of development proposal.
Water: Public water is available to the subject area. An existing 8-inch water main is
present on the west side of N. Gregg Avenue.
Sewer: Sanitary Sewer is available to the subject area. An existing 8-inch sanitary sewer
main is present in the center of N. Gregg Avenue.
Fire: Station 2, located at 708 N. Garland Avenue protects this site. The property is
located approximately 0.9 miles from the fire station with an anticipated drive time
of approximately three minutes using existing streets. The anticipated response
time would be approximately 5.2 minutes. Fire Department response time is
calculated based on the drive time plus 1 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 6 minutes for an engine and 8 minutes for a ladder truck.
Fire apparatus access and fire protection water supplies will be reviewed for
compliance with the Arkansas Fire Prevention Code at the time of development.
Police: The Police Department expressed no concerns with this request.
Drainage: There are no protected streams present in the subject area, no portion of the site
lies within a FEMA floodplain, it is not within the Hillside -Hilltop Overlay District,
nor are there any hydric soils present on the site. Any additional improvements or
requirements for drainage will be determined at time of development.
Tree Preservation:
The proposed zoning district of RMF-40, Residential Multi -Family, 40 Units per
Acre requires 20% minimum canopy preservation. The current zoning district of
RMF-24, Residential Multi -Family, 24 Units per Acre 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 a City Neighborhood Area.
City Neighborhood Areas are more densely developed than residential neighborhood areas and
provide a varying mix of nonresidential and residential uses. This designation supports the widest
spectrum of uses and encourages density in all housing types, from single family to multi -family.
City Neighborhood Areas encourage complete, compact and connected neighborhoods and non-
residential uses are intended to serve the residents of Fayetteville, rather than a regional
population. While they encourage dense development patterns, they do recognize existing
conventional strip commercial developments and their potential for future redevelopment in a
more efficient urban layout.

CITY PLAN 2040 INFILL MATRIX: City Plan 2040's Infill Matrix indicates a score of 9-10 for this
site, with a weighted score of 13. The following elements of the matrix contribute to the score:
• Adequate Fire Response (Station #2, 708 N. Garland Avenue)
• Near Sewer Main (8" sewer main, N. Gregg Avenue)
• Near Water Main (8" water main, N. Gregg Avenue)
• Near Grocery Store (Harps, 1189 N. Garland Avenue)
• Near City Park (Wilson Park, Gregory Park)
• Near Paved Trail (Scull Creek Trail)
• Near University of Arkansas Main Campus
• Near Ozark Regional Transit Stop (Route 10, N. College Avenue)
• Near Razorback Bus Stop (Route 26 Peak, N. Leverett Avenue)
• Appropriate Future Land Use (City Neighborhood 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 request to be compatible with the
surrounding mix of uses. The surrounding area includes two multi -family
developments, a church, and single-family dwellings across N. Gregg
Avenue to the east. The permitted and conditional uses are identical between
RMF-40 and RMF-24. Staff also finds that the bulk and area regulations are
suitable and not out of context with surrounding properties. Single- and two-
family lot widths and areas are required to be slightly larger in RMF-24 than
in RMF-40 but otherwise the two districts are very similar. Setbacks and
maximum building heights are identical. Given that the site adjoins other
multi -family developments and zoning entitlements, staff finds the scale of
what would be allowed is contextually appropriate. Single-family dwellings
are prevalent in the area, but they are separated from the site by the
intervening public street. Based on a simple calculation of the acreage of the
site, and notwithstanding requirements for drainage, tree preservation, and
parking, the increased density would allow for 89 total units across the site
where the current zoning would allow 53 units to be developed. Staff finds
the increased density is suitable due to the site's proximity to schools, work,
jobs, and a multi -modal transportation network. Further the increased
density is unlikely to have a noticeably different impact to the immediately
surrounding multi -family developments.
Land Use Plan Analysis: Staff finds the proposal to be consistent with the
goals in City Plan 2040 and the future land use designation for this location.
Rezoning from RSF-4 to RI-12 serves to contribute towards City Plan 2040
goals #1 — Appropriate Infill and 4 — Growing a Livable Transportation
Network. The site scores high on the Infill Scoring Matrix indicating that the
site, as its currently developed, is not meeting its highest and best use. The
proposed rezoning would locate additional residential density near
groceries, two city parks, and between two significant employers: the
veteran's hospital to the northeast and the University of Arkansas main

campus less than a half -mile to the south, as well as the nearby transit route
and trail.
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
RMF-40. The request aligns with the future land use map and would increase
density at a site proximate to many non-residential services. Further staff
finds the existing transportation network can appropriately handle additional
density since it is located along a Neighborhood Link Street with many
options for alternative modes of transportation.
3. A determination as to whether the proposed zoning would create or appreciably increase
traffic danger and congestion.
Finding: Rezoning the property to RMF-40 will potentially increase traffic at this
location, though the increase is not anticipated to be beyond what is
appropriate. The site has adequate space between driveways to the north
and south for an access point to be compliant with curb cut separation
standards. Conversely, Neighborhood Link Streets have a designed service
capacity of 6,000 vehicles per day or fewer. The Arkansas Department of
Transportation recorded an average annual daily traffic count of 9,400
vehicles at a point just south of the site. Two accidents have been recorded
along the property's frontage between 2017 and 2021 with the intersection
of N. Gregg Avenue and W. North Street, roughly 350 feet to the south,
witnessing much more frequent collisions. Nearby access to trails and
transit stops also offer alternative modes that would help to offset traffic
effects associated with an increase to the number of dwelling units at this
location. Any new development would also be required to improve the
property's frontage to the 2040 Master Street Plan requirements, including
10-foot greenspaces and 8-foot sidewalks, which staff finds would
complement the non -motorized transportation network.
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 to RMF-40 would increase the load on public services
above the potential of the current zoning district, but the impact is not
expected to be significant. The site has ready access to basic development
standards including city water, sewer, and improved street frontage. Neither
Fayetteville Public Schools or Fayetteville Police offered comment regarding
the request.
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;
Planning Commission

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.

To Whom It May Concern,
Rezone
3825 N. Shiloh Dr.
Fayetteville, Arkansas 72703
479-443-4506
Fax 582-1883
Our Client, Pathway Baptist Church, is requesting to rezone the southern tract
resulting from a Tract Split, for which Fayetteville Planning has issued a conditional
letter of approval. The Rezoning request will be to change from RMF-24 to RMF-40.
The southern tract in question is approximately 2.256 acres in size, and currently has
multiple existing structures and asphalt parking. The owner's intent is to have this 2.256-
acre tract rezoned to RMF-40, then complete the Tract Split. Following these approvals,
the newly rezoned RMF-40 property will be sold, and the buyers will initiate the
demolition and development permitting processes toward a multifamily development.
Fayetteville's General Reference GIS map shows this location, and adjacent properties to
the north and the south as "City Neighborhood" under the Future Land Use (2040) layer.
Although the City's zoning map shows this property as RMF-24, and the southern
adjacent property as RMF-40, this Future Land Use map does not make this
differentiation.
If you have any additional questions or comments, feel free to contact our office.

Nikki Littrell
