H.Terry Rasco,Agent
PRIRPPO AL:A conditional use permit is
requested to allow for the
construction of an indoor tennisfacility,several new golf holes
and a rest room facility on the
existing,R-2 zoned,238 acre
Country Club of Little Rock
property.
RDINANCE DESIGN STANDARDS:
1.Site Location
The country Club of Little Rock is generally located at theeastendofCountryClubBlvd.,north of Cantrell Road and
south of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific Railroad
right-of-way.
2.om i ili wi ei orh
The Country Club of Little Rock has long been a fixture in
the Heights neighborhood.
Although adjacent to several single family residential
neighborhoods,the property of the Country Club is primarily
open space and park-like in appearance,devoted mostly to
the large open areas of the golf course.
The only aspect of this proposed project which could have apossibleimpactontheadjacentresidencesistheindoor
tennis facility.It will be a large structure and may have
a visual impact on those residences to the south and
southwest.The tennis facility itself is compatible with
the continued use of the property as a country club with itsassociatedfacilities.With proper attention to screeningthisstructure,the proposed improvements should be
compatible with the adjacent neighborhoods.
3.n-i ri e n P rkin
Associated with the indoor tennis facility is a new 36 space
parking lot which,when added to the number of existing
spaces on the Country Club grounds,should be sufficient to

1.Provide a detailed screening plan for the parking lot andothernewuseareas.
2 .Provide a cross-section through the site showing buildingelevations.
3.Show site treatment on cuts and fills.
4.Provide details of landscape/buffer plan.
Discussion centered on the possible visual impact of the proposedtenniscenteronadjacentresidences.
Mr.Rasco stated that the existing tennis screen,on the westsideoftheexistingoutdoortenniscourts,would provide
adequate screening for those residences across Country Club Lane.
He further stated that there is an existing area of woods to thesouthwestoftheproposedbuildingwhichwouldprovidesomescreening.
Mr.Rasco informed the Committee that due to the required cutintothehillsideforconstructionofthetennisfacility,theactualridgelineofthebuildingwillbe35feetorlessabovegrade.

proposal.He stated that he felt the proposed use was compatible
with the neighborhood and the continued use of the property as a

how he would use similar materials and building design to lessen
the impact of the proposed tennis structure.Mr.Rasco presented
several photos and drawings showing proposed landscaping
treatment and building design and color that he felt would
mitigate the visual impact of the structure on adjacent
properties.
Mr.Rasco continued by explaining that the Country Club of Little
Rock had agreed to rebuild an existing rock wall along Country
Club Lane.The Country Club would also heavily landscape along
Country Club Lane,including shrubbery and trees to help screen
the existing facilities as well as any proposed improvements.
Mr.Rasco stated that the Country Club had agreed to repair andrestoretherockwall,but will do the landscaping 'only if the
proposed tennis center is built.

B.EXISTING ONDITIO S:
There is an approved Final Plat for a 32 lot subdivision
which was signed on September 19,1989.A private street
and drainage improvements were constructed prior to thattime.The developer's engineer asserts that the street was
constructed of 6"thick concrete and built to Little Rock
standards.No sidewalks were constructed.Stone entrancefences,a stone and wood gate house,and iron gates wereconstructedattheentrancetothesubdivision.Prior to
any development having taken place,though,the subdivision
was abandoned.The land is overgrown and covered in naturalvegetationandtrees.The gate house has been vandalized
and burned.
The subdivision is sited along a ridge overlooking Rock

Subdivision is immediately to the east and north,with the

ENGINEERING UTILITY COMMENT
Engineering notes that the plat,as submitted,is
incomplete,with the locations of proposed PAGIS monuments
being omitted,the width of the street not being shown,and
the Certificate of Surveying Accuracy not being complete.
Engineering confirms that the stone fences,gate house,andgateswhichwouldencroachontopublicright-of-way would
have to be removed.It is also noted that sidewalks are
required,since the cul-de-sac streets are greater in length
than 750 feet.Engineering will require verification that
the streets will be accepted for public maintenance and that
maintenance of the islands is provided for or are removed.
Water Works reports that some additional service lines will
be required.Existing private fire hydrants will become
public fire hydrants.
Wastewater Utility notes that the existing subdivision has
a sewer facility previously constructed and accepted by theUtility,The change in lot lay-out,however,will meanthatthesewerservicelinespreviouslylaidwillnotbeabletoserveallthenewlots,and that it will be theresponsibilityofthedeveloperortheindividuallotownerstopayforthenewsewertapswhicharemadenecessary.

E.A~NALY Y
There are no major deficiencies or problems with thisapplication.The application and drawings can easily be
amended and completed to conform to the requirements of theSubdivisionOrdinance.From the developer's engineer'sassurances,it is not anticipated that there will be a
problem with the street being accepted by Public works.Thedeveloperanticipatedfromtheoutsettoremovethestonefences,gate house,and gates from the right-of-way.
Although the cul-de-sac streets are greater in length than
750 feet,the streets serve only eighteen and twenty-twolots,so approval of the variance request is reasonable.
The developer is aware of the resulting mis-alignment of
sewer service lines when the lot configuration is changed.

C.EN I ERI TILI Y COMMENTS:
The Engineering Division suggests that Valley View Drive,
shown as a cul-de-sac street on the plat,may need to extend
to Shepard Drive.Engineering also wants to review with the
Developer how and where Shepard Drive is planned to tie in
to collector streets to the east and west.
Water Works reports that water main extensions will be
required.They further indicate that there were water mains
that were previously constructed at Water Works expense,and
reimbursement will be required.On Shepard Drive,the
charge will be $15.01 per foot for 170 feet.On Valley View
Drive,the charge will be $17.50 per foot for 100 feet.Thetotalwillbe$4,301.70.
Wastewater Utility reports that a sewer main extension,with
easements,will be required.
Arkansas Power and Light Company and Southwestern Bell
Telephone Company report that additional easements will be
required.
ARKLA and the Fire Department have approved the submittal
without comment.
D.ISSUES LE AL TE H I AL DE I
The application is incomplete in that no preliminary Bill of
Assurance was submitted.The preliminary plat,as
submitted,is incomplete.The metes and bounds description,
with the acreage shown,is not provided.The Vicinity Mapisomitted.The plat shows a drainage course.This matter
needs to be addressed and engineering provided to deal with
the flow of water into and from the tract.All adjoining
property owners,where the land is not a recorded
subdivision,are to be shown on the plat.Where recorded
subdivisions abut the platted area,those subdivisions are
to be shown and the plat book and page number of their
recording are to be noted.The location and description ofallmonumentsistobeshown.The PAGIS monument locations
are to be shown.
K.MALYSZ!i:
The deficiencies of the application and plat can be easily
remedied.It is just a matter of the engineer completing
the work required by the Subdivision Ordinance for a
submittal.It is not anticipated that this will be a
problem for the engineer to complete.

Ms.Willena Slocum,representing Jerry Hodapp of 15108 Kanis

She stated that there was a problem with inadequate bus stacking
space on the school property.Ms.Slocum further stated that she
was concerned about potential sewage problems in that the school
is not currently tied onto the Little Rock sewer system.
Mr.Chilcote then addressed the Planning Commission.He stated
that the applicant would look into tying onto the Little Rock
sewer system,but that there are questions regarding annexing
into the city limits and the potential effect on school distxict

change driveways to effect bus stacking spaces.
Commissioner Nicholson then questioned the school district's
unwillingness to construct sidewalks along Kanis Road and Baker

but will probably request a waiver of other required Master
Street Plan improvements.
Chairman Walker then asked if the school district would agree to
build sidewalks on Kanis Road and request a deferral of all other

Mr.Chilcote stated that he could possibly agree to that
arrangement,but that he would need to confer with his client.
Commissioner Nicholson then asked staff to look into how the
Little Rock School District is treated in similar applications.
