Subject: BCD Wood Fence - 3604 W. 12th Street
Dana,
Thanks for your assistance with the property on Roosevelt Road. I actually have a question on a separate
project as well.
The approval for the BCD Empowerment Center located at 3604 W. 12th Street included screening from
the residential property at the northwest corner of the intersection of 12th and Valentine. I've attached
a PDF that shows the proposed 6' wood fence location. Since the time of the approval, BCD, Inc. has
purchased the property at the corner of 12th and Valentine. They have demolished the house and
garage that were on the property, and have no immediate plans for development. BCD understands that
a development other than residential would require completion of the planning review process and
would be willing to install the fence if the a residential development when back on this property.
What would be the process be to request a waiver or deferral from constructing this fence? Is this
something we could discuss administratively rather than going back through the entire process.
Thanks again,
Brad

place and wanted to know how many police calls had been made to this area. Director Wright asked
about the list of police reports that the Board had received in pony for this location; and wanted to
know the type of calls, why so many to this facility and if there will be security for the residents, and
would there be a fence. Director Richardson said when he received the list; he took it upon himself to
verify the type of calls with the police department. He said that of the twenty seen calls, only eight
reports had been filed, and there were no violent crimes listed, and this was over an eleven month
period. Mr. Paul Kelly, former Little Rock Board member, stated that substance abuse of family in
Arkansas is a disease that leads to a wide variety of social problems, child welfare, violence, economic
problems; jobs are lost, because of the abuse. Research proves that treatment works, and that BCD has
proven that it works. He said there are long lists of people waiting for treatment, and asked the Board
to vote in favor of this facility. He said this will be an asset to the community and will promote
common good. Director Adcock said she had fears about the children in the neighborhood that might
have a parent in the facility, and the exposure risk this presented to the children. Director Hendrix
stated that the issue does not have to do with treatment; it has to do with location. Elsie Atkins, stated
she lives across the street from this location, and is raising two granddaughters and has a ninety-six
year old father living there, and she had concerns over this being a two story building where residents
can see everything they do at her home, and there are eight facility like this, in the community, and
twenty-eight within five miles of her home. She said some of the children catch a bus at 6:30 in the
morning, and her fear was for the children. Director Richardson asked Ms. Atkins, if she was
suggesting there are twenty-eight licensed facilities such as this in the City. She stated they are within
five miles of her home. She did not want this to be a rehab drop off center. Dr. Kate Stewart, faculty
representative from UAMS, expressed her support for the facility and stated that she deeply valued the
role they have played as partners. Nancy Robinson, opposed saying that parking is a concern. The
residents would have to accommodate parking for extra people coming to the facility. It will make the
neighborhood uncomfortable, and if the people have another place to go, they need to think about
looking at that. There are schools in the area, and who knows if one of these residents might have a
mindset of a child molester. She asked why the applicant would bring in people who are residents of
the facility or support, of course they would support it, and had issues with that. Charles Carlos was in
favor of the facility. He said he did not believe they would let anyone hurt children in the
neighborhood. Ruth Bell, League of Women Voters, opposed because of negative impact in the
neighborhood, and the scale was massive compared to the housing there. There are a large number of
these types of facilities in the general area. Birdie Bell, said she has lived in this community since
1958 and thinks this would be a good idea, would empower the whole community. She said she came
though Hoover treatment center, having drug issues, and was able to learn things to do so that she
would not have to go back to that lifestyle. She did not think BCD would be a hindrance of any kind
to the community. Debbie Strickland, Director of Florence Crittenden Home. She met with BCD and
expressed concerns. She said they have agreed to not put windows on the I Ith Street side. They
agreed to change plans and not put windows there, but if approved, there is no proof they have to do
that. He believed this will be a security issue. It is already congested getting into their gate, and with
more traffic it will make it really congested, and this would cause a problem. She met with BCD
regarding working with them, and they asked whether she could tell them if they had a child there, and
if so they would not take the parent. She said under HIPPA laws she would not give them that
information. Clifton Killingworth, was opposed to building the adult rehab center in their
neighborhood. He asked
why are they always put in black neighborhoods? Why not take over the VA Hospital? He said this
seemed like a done deal, if the property is already purchased. He said lived there since 1969, and it is

ninety-eight percent black and was not fighting against the program, but against where they want to
build. Why not build it on Chenal where Riverside Motors was, or put it on Roosevelt Road. He
stated they need a nice peaceful neighborhood. Let the people on dope have another facility they can
go to: Georgene Allen, said the neighborhood is already run down. There will be programs to help
the neighborhood, and felt the neighbors' need to stand behind BCD and give them support. She said
if something is coming to the neighborhood to help, why not support them. She stated they need to
clean their own neighborhood up. Ted Atkins, stated he was opposed, and totally against this
development. His children were his major concern and he asked who is to say someone does not slip,
and when they slip they slip harder than before; not saying BCD should not build one, but felt this is
not the right location. He stated the streets are narrow, and there is only room for two cars. He asked
if the street will be widened or will the additional traffic block the street. He felt that kids come before
rehab centers, Representing the applicant, Barry Williams, developer for the project, said the residents
are not allowed to have cars, but to address the parking issue, the center will have additional parking at
Wills House, and they would widen their half of I Ph Street. He said the architects have agreed to have
no windows on the north end of building. Mr. Williams stated this is a relocation project. Ms. Debra
Bell, Director of Programs for BC, indicated that the dormitory is a one story building, and the main
administrative office is a two story building. She stated for twenty-eight years, the Hoover Center has
been a good neighbor to the mid -town community. She stated that they are closely regulated by the
state and are prohibited by the state from being a nuisance in the community. If a client is
noncompliant they work to move them to another facility. Director Keck asked the applicants if they
had agreed as part of the planned development, those windows would not be placed on the side of the
Florence Crittenden Home, and that it is on the record. Ms. Bell stated they had agreed to that_ He
also asked, as some were concerned regarding the children being attacked or molested as a result of
someone being at the rehab center, and asked what type of background information the residents at the
facility have. Ms. Bell stated that they would not take sexual offenders at this facility. Reverend
Robinson, the applicant, addressed the issue of where the kids catch the bus, and said there are four
vacant building, and they plan to purchase all four of the properties so they won't be abandoned, they
need a pleasant entry to the facility. They have been involved in the development of the 12th Street
corridor.
Mr. Bruce Moore, City Manager, stated, regarding Director Keck's request, that he thought the Board
had in the past, accepted an amendment to the application. Director Keck made the motion to amend
the application so that there would be no windows on the 11 th Street side of the facility on the side of
the Florence Crittenden Home, Director Richardson seconded the motion. This would be a part of the
application. Director Kumpuris offered a second amendment that the dormitory would be one story
and would be 5000 square feet. By unanimous voice vote the motion was passed. Dr. Keck stated he
wanted to make sure of the type of background of these who come to the facility would have. Ms.
Bell stated hey do not take sex offenders. Director Adcock asked about parking for the evening
programs; saying she understood that there could be up to one hundred participants, and also asked if
residents could have visitors on Sundays. Director Adcock asked if there would be adequate parking
for all these programs. Ms. Debra Bell said some of the youth programs will remain at Hoover.
Reverend Robinson said they planned to purchase more properties to expand the parking. He stated
they had done long range and comprehensive planning. He said they are not fighting the City; they are
encouraging and enhancing the community. Director Adcock asked about all the land purchases, and
was concerned how much land would have to be purchased for parking lots. Mr. Moore said it is his
intention that the Mid -Town Mixed Use Center and the Hinton Center would have adequate parking.
Mayor Stodola asked if they were moving only two blocks from the current facility. Director Hendrix
51
Little Rock Board of Directors Meeting Minutes

asked why there were so many police calls to the area. Ms. Bell said it was a mix of calls, if MEMS is
called it generates a report, so she was not sure they types of calls. It could be an accident being
reported.
Director Hendrix said she had talked to people further down the street, if this fails here, and asked if
they would be interested in locating there. Ms. Bell stated they would like to wait and see what
happens here. Director Kumpuris asked, if In order to get this started, the City would have to have an
assurance that this would not be done piecemeal. Ms. Bozynski said they would submit construction
drawings and all other site improvements, and that is what would be permitted. Director Kumpuris
said he would like to see the minimum amount built. If approved, then they start the first phase. They
have to build all site improvements and two dorms. Mr. Bozynski said to get the permit that is what
they assure they will have to do. Director Wright said she was not aware that some of the programs
would be separated from Hoover Center. Ms. Bell said they are relocated, and would not take sex
offenders from anyone. Mr. Carpenter said contacts bar their ability to take people with sex offences,
and even if they could they are too close to schools, etc. Mr. Williams stated that their policy would
be that all patients will be inside the courtyard. Director Wright asked what if they get a business
permit, and they only complete part of phase one and the City is left with an unfinished project. Mr.
Carpenter answered that if they are granted the permit and the work is not done in the time allowed
and there was no indication the work would be finished the city could declare it a nuisance and raise
the property or get some other relief. If raised a lien can be taken and the building is the Cities'. Mr.
Moore, City Manager stated that applicants had also been given extension in the past on their building
permits. Director Hurst asked Ms. Bell if there are any conflicts in any of the adult programs when
moving them from the Hoover facility. Ms. Bell answered no, that the youth programs would remain
at Hoover. Director Hurst asked staff how long the applicant would have to request a building permit.
Staff s answer was that it is a three year period. Mayor Stodola asked if this is passed what is their
time line to remove existing properties. Mr. Williams answered approximately six months. Mayor
Stodola asked if some of the new homes would be on the vacant lots. Mr. Williams answered there
would be two families relocated. He explained that new homes would be built for them to replace the
ones they live in now. There being no other discussion, Mayor Stodola called for a roll call vote. The
roll was called and the vote was recorded as follows: Directors Hendrix, no, Richardson, yes, Cazort,

Information Report
Approved By
I Bruce Moore
City Manager
The request is a rezoning of the site from R-3, Single-
family and R-4, Two-family to POD to allow the multi -
phased construction of a new residential treatment facility
to serve 24 males and 24 females along with the associated
ancillary facilities and office space.
I None.
Staff recommends denial of the requested POD zoning.
The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of
the requested zoning by a vote of 6 ayes, 4 noes, 0 absent
and 1 open position.
The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed POD
request at its September 18, 2008, and its October 30, 2008,
meeting. There were registered objectors present. The
Capitol Hill, the Central High, the Hope, the Forest Hills,
the Stephens Area Faith and the Pine to Woodrow
Neighborhood Associations, all residents who could be
identified located within 300 feet of the site and all property
owners located within 200-feet of the site were notified of
the Public Hearing.
BACKGROUND
The project will occupy all but one lot of the entire block
located between I Vh and 12`h Streets and South Maple and
South Valentine Streets. The plan is to remove all the
existing structures and build the proposed Empowerment
Center. The site is being reviewed as an establishment for
care of alcoholic, narcotic or psychiatric patients.
According to the definition section of the zoning ordinance,
this use is defined as an establishment offering residence
for outpatient treatment to alcoholic, narcotic or psychiatric
patients. The use is an allowable use under the 0-1, Quiet
Office Zoning District. The activities are currently taking
place at Hoover Place located at Hoover Methodist Church
just a few blocks west of this site.
The idea behind the overall layout and architecture is to
maintain the neighborhood feel and curb appeal with
pedestrian friendly front fagade and porch with all the
vehicular traffic being located in the rear. The developers
have located all dumpster and service areas adjacent to the
commercial uses along the west, and the main office
parking area with entry court is located on the northeast
corner of the site. Additional screening of the parking area
is provided by the installation of a 3 'h foot screening fence
on the north side of the parking lot. There will also be an
outdoor courtyard and activity area in the center of the site
between the dormitory buildings. This area will be fenced
with a 6'-8" privacy fence for control, security and privacy
of the patients within the facility.
The center will provide on -site living accommodations
through dormitory style housing offering 24 beds for
females and 24 beds for male clients. Other activities on
the site include office space for (4) potential partners,
computer lab, wellness center, community rooms,
commercial kitchen, auditorium/dining room with seating
capacity of 100, fitness room, classroom/training center.
The residential treatment portion of the facility will operate
24 hours per day. The office portion of the development
will operate during normal business hours with activities
such as graduations or community meetings taking place
during non -typical business hours. These activities will be
limited and no schedule has been created for these
activities. Most activities take place on weekends and
most nightly activity should conclude before 9:00 p.m.

BACKGROUND
CONTINUED
The developers hope to construct the entire project in a
single phase but have requested a phasing plan for the
development of the site. According to the applicant, the
center will be constructed as funding becomes available.
Phase I of the development will consist of the dormitory
buildings, parking and the courtyard space with a wood
privacy fence installed to delineate the courtyard area. 24
men and 12 women will be housed at the site. The
remaining space within the women's dormitory will be used
as office space and the community space to serve the
residents.
The subsequent phases include the construction of the
administrative offices, the community room, commercial
kitchen, auditorium/dining room, fitness room, computer
lab, wellness center and classroom/training center.
Staff has concerns with the development's location and the
proposed phasing plan. Staff feels there is potential for a
saturation of this type of institutional activities within the
neighborhood. To the south of this site is a similar type
use, Will's House, which provides transitional housing for
men recently released from treatment. There are also a
number of activities and uses in the area geared to the youth
of the community. North of the site is the Florence
Crittenden House and west of the site is the Willie Hinton
Community Center. Although, staff feels the activities and
undertakings provided by the Hoover Methodist Church
and the Hoover House are valuable to the community staff
questions if this is the appropriate location for the use.
Based on these concerns staff cannot support the request.
Please see the attached Planning
record and site plan for the
development proposal and the
recommendation.

Subject: BCD - Empowerment Center - Phasing Plan
Ladies and Gentlemen:
As you know we had a meeting today to discuss the various ways to phase in the project over time. Ideally
phasing would not be necessary, but with current economic trends and the not for profit status of BCD and
Hoover House, this is an option we need to have in place. Also, with the submittal of the packages to the planning
commissioners we provided you with a break down of one method of phasing the project. With your comments
received, we know there are some issues with the proposed method. So, we would like to issue a second look to
you, the members of the staff, prior to going before the commission. The BCD — Empowerment Center planning
committee came up with the following phasing plan today. We hope this will meet with your approval and get us
on the side of staff recommending for approval.
The plan will be like this:
Phase 1
The two dormitories (men's and women's) will be built.
The connection corridors will be built and serve as the main entries for each of the dorms.
The total site package will be constructed including total parking lot, half street improvements, utilities, future
phase 2 pad sites (stabilized and reseeded), grading drainage, bio-swales and service entry with dumpster. Also
the required screening fencing for the parking lot and the neighbor to our east side will be installed. The main
northern fence of the courtyard will be constructed with a temporary fence placed on the south side. All landscape
and irrigation required for the parking lot, dormitories, and eastern boundary screening will be installed as well.
Phase 2
The main 12th street structure that includes meeting rooms, kitchen, offices and group meeting rooms. Also, this
will include a slight remodel of Phase 1 to house the additional 12 women with the relocation of some offices and
support rooms. The front yard landscape and irrigation will be installed with this portion.
The idea behind this phasing plan is to bring the current Hoover house facility containing 24 men and 12 women
to this new site. Within the phase one construction the size will accommodate an additional 12 women in the
future. The buildings have been sized to not only contain the residents, but some additional small group areas
and extra storage space. So we feel confident that with the planned additional space and the extra room provided
by not servicing all 24 women, we can move the entire operation of Hoover house to the new site. This will include
some temporary meeting rooms, kitchen space, offices, small storage and utility areas. If kitchen space becomes
a problem within the programming of these two dormitories the BCD and Empowerment Center can contract to
cater meals for the 36 people housed in phase 1. Phase 1 will effectively close the treatment facility at Hoover
House.
We hope this clears up some if not all of your concerns and establishes a plan more palatable to the City of Little
Rock Planning Staff.
Thank you so much for your time and efforts in helping us with this project.
Sincerely,
Barry R. Williams

Please find attached the filing documents for the above referenced Planned Office Development.
This package includes the following information:
1. 18 copies of the site plan.
2. 3 copies of the survey
3. 1 copy of the application
4. 1 copy of the POD information sheet
5. 1 copy of the affidavit of owners authorization
6. 1 copy of the public notification
7. 1 copy of the right of way agreement
8. 1 copy of the Owners Statement of Empowerment Center Purposes
9. A check for the sum of 205.00 for the POD filing fee.
The proposed project will occupy all but one lot of this block in Coy's addition. The plan will be
to remove the existing structures and build the proposed Empowerment Center shown on the
overall site plan. The idea behind the overall layout and architecture is to maintain the
neighborhood feel and curb appeal with pedestrian friendly front fagade and porch with all the
vehicular traffic being located in the rear off of the already busy 12`h street. We have located all
dumpster and service areas adjacent to the Kentucky Fried Chicken, and the main office parking
area with entry court will be on the northeast corner of the site. We will be providing some
additional screening of the parking by installing a 3.5' screening fence on the north side of the
parking lot. There will also be an outdoor courtyard and activity area in the center of the site
between the dormitory buildings. This area will be fenced with a 6' — 8' high privacy fence for
control, security, and privacy of the patients within the facility.
The hope is that when you pass by this establishment on 12'b street that you will get the feeling
that it is a very large home and an integral part of the neighborhood.
Please let me know if you require any additional information or have any questions. You can
reach me in the office at (501) 280-0123.

VISION STATEMENT for The EMPOWERMENT CENTER
As an outreach ministry of Theressa Hoover United Methodist Church, the Black Community Developers
Inc. (BCD) operates various programs serving over 1000 low and moderate income residents of the city
and state annually. Programs provided by BCD include; the Hoover Treatment Center, the only faith -
based, licensed residential treatment facility in Arkansas, youth after -school and gang intervention
programs, a homeless shelter, homebuyer education and counseling, and construction of homes for first-
time homebuyers. BCD's programs have experienced significant growth and success, thereby exceeding
the capacity of their current facilities.
In addition, existing compliance and regulatory issues related to the aging and inadequate buildings
associated with the Hoover Treatment Center further accelerate the pressing need for new facilities if
BCD is to continue to effectively and efficiently provide treatment services. Therefore, the Board of
Directors and staff is embarking on the construction of a new residential drug and alcohol treatment
facility, the Empowerment Center.
Our VISION for this facility is as follows:
Y The Empowerment Center will be a state of the art facility and will provide not only state
certified cutting edge prevention, intervention and treatment services, but also comprehensive life
skills training that will empower residents to succeed in all aspects of their life. The 20,000 to
25,000 square foot facility will provide safe and decent housing to clients and will also provide
office space for BCD and its partners, conference rooms and classrooms. An emphasis will be
given to creating a learning environment whereby clients, families, and the community will learn
how to combat and prevent the disease of addiction. This environment will be created through
public and private collaborative partnerships that will enhance and reinforce the work of BCD's
licensed clinicians and provide opportunities for clients to develop skills with which to serve their
community.
® Mission Center is an applicable description of the Empowerment Center. It will serve as a
national model for the United Methodist Church and other faith -based organizations. As a Mission
Center the faith -based and non -profits organizations will be able to offer practicum's or research
opportunities to students in seminary, pastors, laity and others who are interested alcohol and
drug treatment programs and associated issues. This experience is presently being offered to
students at Philander Smith College, University of Arkansas at Little Rock, UAMS College of
Public Health and University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. BCD staff at The Empowerment Center
will provide hands-on training to interested nonprofits, church groups and educational institutions
from across the nation. The Empowerment Center staff, in addition, will share their expertise
through consultation with other faith based programs and the production of conferences and
training seminars for the community at large.
The Empowerment Center will help revitalize the Mid Town area. The Center represents a
continued commitment by BCD to the Mid -Town area who have over 27 years established
various facilities, rehabbed several houses to be used as Chemical -free dwellings, and more
recently built 24 new affordable single-family homes in the area. The addition of the
Empowerment Center along the 12th Street Corridor represents a positive and attractive addition
and support to ongoing efforts by local government and civic groups to revitalize this vitally
important street.
• The Empowerment Center represents an economic development opportunity. The Center will
allow BCD to pursue new social entrepreneurial opportunities as they seek to establish the most
comprehensive treatment and empowerment program in the state. The Center will emphasize
connectivity to the community through the provision of educational opportunities, job training
and business initiatives, as well as training in healthy living. Because of BCD's comprehensive
approach to treatment, our partners will be able to expand their program of operations.
• The Empowerment Center is a good investment for the City of Little Rock and the State.
Studies have shown for every dollar spent on addictions society saves four to fifteen dollars in
medical and incarceration expense. The Empowerment Center will yield even better results as
clients will be taught the skills to not only avoid the societal costs associated with addiction, but
give back to the community thereby adding to their community's economic growth and well being.

Subject: RE: Cyclebreakers
Importance: High
Dear Tony,
This is what I told the Mayor and Bruce on Tuesday: The definition of "correctional
institution," because it covers the residential component of the application, applies. I
said that I could probably work the features of the CUP into the PUD, but that I be-
lieved a CUP was the best way to go. We talked about precedent and they asked me
what I really felt. I noted that while the "correctional institution," definition was a
result of the City of Faith (Hope?), which was primarily residential, there was no dis-
tinction between a facility with residential as a main component, or residential as a
side component.
However, that should not stop the rezoning request from going through. The zoning
in the PUD would allow residential, but it does not relieve the applicant of the need to
obtain a CUP. So, they would have to go through that process to have the residential
component. IF the Cycle Breakers wish to pursue that option, then they follow the
CUP. If not, which they have said, then they seek their rezoning only and never apply
for a CUP. All the PUD would do is allow residential but not authorize it.
This approach should resolve the immediate issue. It does not require a major or
substantial change in the ordinance that would return the issue to the Planning Com-
mission. More to the point, the Board would not act on a substantial change and break
a consistent approach of returning major changes to the Planning Commission.
A part of me would like to note in the ordinance that the allowance of residential
did not preclude the need for a CUP. But, I think that can be handled with the memo-
randum from this office and, with a modification of the Board communication to high-
light that point.

Tom,
Are you still planning to send a memo to the Board about Cyclebreakers before the Jan. 30 meet-
ing? As we discussed at our Friday meeting, I still feel that the POD covers the residential com-
ponent and the Board can move forward on the request as was acted on by the Planning Com-
mission. Did you have an opportunity to visit with the Mayor and Bruce about his matter?

Amendment changing from Single Family to Mixed Use (LU08-09-02). The rezoning
request, if approved, will rezone the property to allow the placement of an alcohol and
drug residential treatment facility on the property with a 24 bed male and 24 bed female

Phasing Strategy

Over the course of this project it has been determined that we should ask for phasing of the
overall campus to be a part of our POD application. As you know the building is set up with
various pods of differing activities. Logically from this we can anticipate at least 3 separate
phases. However, there may be up to 5 phases depending on the development of the southern
most administration building.
Phase one will include one of the dormitory buildings and the half of the parking lot most closely
associated with it. This phase will also include a wooden privacy fence to delineate the future
courtyard space. The second phase will be one of two options, the beginning of the
administration building to the south or the erection of the second dormitory. Regardless phase
two will include the completion of the parking lot to the north. The final 3 phases will be the
completion of the portions of the administration or dormitory that have not already completed. I
realize that this is a very flexible phasing scenario, but the projects will come on line as funding
is acquired, and needs are determined verses the available money.
As to the operations of phase one, there are several options for that to function. One would be the
required dining and kitchen needs be set up in a "temporary" kitchen within or beside the
dormitory itself, or the existing kitchen and dining hall at the Hoover House will be used for the
meals. I will try to gather more operational information for the phasing during the next couple of
weeks. We have several internal and presentation meetings schedule as we approach the
Planning Commission Hearing date. If you have some specific questions from staff related to
operations please e-mail those to me for answers.
We would also like to phase the street improvements. For example if the dormitory more closely
related to Maple Street is built first then we do the required Maple Street improvements with that
dorm. As the second dorm comes on line we do the opposite street improvements. As to I Ith
Street, we would like to do the improvements for it in phase two as the parking lot is completed.

The street requirements for 12th Street are minimal, but would be done as the Administration
building comes on line. This would allow us to have the initial cost of all the street
improvements spread out over at least 3 separate phases.
The primary focus at this point is to let you know that phasing of the work will likely happen due
to the size and cost of the overall project. Thank you for all of your assistance in these matters.

Based on the findings of the City Attorney's office last Friday, the staff of the Black Community
Developers would like to withdraw all applications related to the Empowerment Center at this
time without prejudice. Also, as a part of this request we are hoping to be able to resubmit these
applications in the future, and we would like to have any refilling fees waved when we bring
these three applications back to the Little Rock Planning Department. As you know, the avenue
that will be pursued now will be ordinance change which may take some time to finalize.
Therefore we would like to have no restrictions placed on the BCD — Empowerment Center with
regard to time frame for re -submittal or the waving of the application fees.
I will remove the signs from the property and the public notices have not gone out at this time.
We have some scheduled public meetings coming up at the Willie Hinton Center. I will let the
BCD decide if they want to continue with those or cancel. We do realize that if these meetings
continue we will be required to have them again more closely related to the planning commission
meeting that we would attend.
Thank you for all of your assistance in these matters and we are hoping we can be back on the
agenda very soon. Please let me know if you require any additional information or have any
questions. You can reach me in the office at (501) 664-3245.

POD Planned Office Development Subdivision Committee Comment Revisions
Donna:
Please find attached 5 copies of the revised site plan based on the comments made by the staff
and subdivision committee. I have extended curb and sidewalk along Valentine. I have removed
the parallel parking on Maple. I have indicated areas where we intend to create bio-swales and
storm water detention. I have added additional dimensions for clarification. I have added a note
describing the 6' opaque privacy fence between the Empowerment Center and the remaining
neighbor.
Please note we will be trying to work the site plan as is with relation to the green space buffers.
On Maple street I have left the sidewalk in its previous location in an effort to try to keep an oak
and cedar tree. As previously discussed we are leaving the sidewalk in the location shown on
Valentine so we can add future street parking without relocation of the sidewalk. So if the write
up moving forward needs to reflect a variance for the green spaces shown please ask them to do
so. I would rather not have this discussion again at the time of building permit requiring us to
move the parking and site plan to accommodate 1 or 2 feet of additional space. My personal
opinion is that in the mature area we will be
I have also included a disc of the color work that has been generated to date for your use in the

I am attaching the ordinance on the BCD Empowerment zone. I had a note on my tracking list
that you were going to amend it, and I have not received it back for my files.
It was passed on January 6th. I have a note that it needed to be amended, so that there was a
condition that they would not have any windows on the side of the dormitory facing 11th Street.
If Tony or Dana remembers anything else, maybe they can let you know.
I am working on those minutes now, and I am almost at the end of all the discussion for this, and
that was the only amendment that was voted on.
If you can get me an amended version I would appreciate it.
Thanks

Dear Mr. Bozynski:

I am writing in regards to revised dumpster location for the proposed BCD EmPowerment Center to be
located at 3604 W. 12t' Sheet. It is my understanding that the revised dumpster location is acceptable to
the Planning & Zoning Department with the following conditions:
1. Upgrading the dumpster enclosure to include architectural columns at the corners and 6' wood
panels along the sides.
2. Limit servicing the dumpster to between 8:00 a.m and 5:00 p.m.
3. Add additional landscaping around the dumpster enclosure to provide further visual screening
from adjacent properties.
BCD, Inc., agrees to construct and operate the dumpster in accordance with the above conditions. Thank
you for your consideration in this matter.

Dear Mrs. James:

This letter is in regards to the requested ;ite plan change to t1he Planned Community Development at
the corner of 12th and Maple Street. As per our discussion I'm writing you to inform you of the areas in
which BCD has revised their programming and overall phasing.
Item #1: Internal programmatic changes
BCD would request a change to the overall riunnber of clients that will be living
at the facility. They would like to incre;a5e Lhe approved number from 48 to 54.
This would consist of 30 Sin21e Residence Units (15 men and 15 women) that
will be used for chemical free living for clients with special needs and will be
considered outpatient status. They will be leaving during the day to work
outside of the facility. The other 24 clients (12 men and 12 women) will be
considered inpatient status.
Item #2: Phasing changes
Phase 1: BCD is proposing to build the entire 19,986 sq. ft. treatment facility.
The staff will have an entrance from 12`h Street. The front stairs, shown on the
enclosed site plan off of I2- Street,.will remain during both phases.
-2-
Phase 2: The future phase will be a 2 story addition to the front of the facility.
We will remove the porch constructed during Phase 1 and leave the existing
structural wall that will become an interior wall. Once the program has been
established for this, Phase 2 will establish the overall look of the addition. We
will maintain the same overall appearance as Phase 1.
If you have any questions please feel free to give me a call at 501-372-0272.

Dear Ms. James:
Rebuilding Lives. Restoring Communities.
www.bcdinc.org
Hopefully, this letter will clarify possible concerns related to the development of BCD's
EmPowerment Center. The EmPowerment Center housing component is designed to provide services
to Special Needs populations. The Housing of Urban Development (HUD) defines Special Needs as
households with elderly, mentally or physically disabled persons; persons recovering from physical,
alcohol or drug abuse; or persons with HIV/AIDS. We are committed to providing services to
individuals with special needs as they attempt to improve their quality of life.
We realize that affordable housing is an essential component of starting this process. Therefore, rest
assured the SRO units that will be provided will be permanent units. Each tenant will be required to
sign a minimum six month lease. They will be required to meet the income guidelines and have a
Special Need as defined above. In most of our cases, the Special Need will primarily be alcohol or
drug abuse. There will be no market rate units for person who do not meet both of these requirements.
These units will not be transitional or day to day sleep and stay.
The remaining group home units will be beds for clients that will be enrolled in the Hoover Treatment

Subject: Empowerment Center
Planning & Development Commission:
I think that the BCD has done some great things in the community in the 28 years,but I don't see this
EMPOWERMENT CENTER being an okay thing to drop in the residential property area. We already
have enough things in the area that bring enough unwanted traffic through our neighborhood. People
are walking all through the day and night, littering the streets and ditches, playing music so loud that it
vibrates in the homes. We have Liquor stores and people hanging out around them also.
I'm all for building a nice facility, but I just don't think that it needs to be put in the residential area
where some people are trying to make improvements to bring the neighborhood back up to standards.
This will only make it worst.
Instead of bigger buildings, we should be coming together to fight against the cause of the problem. We
need to fight just as hard to bring badly needed improvements to the very neighborhood that we are
trying to build the Center in. While new houses are going up, the old abandon ones need to come down,
and improved landscaping. and more patrol through the neighbood.
Sincerely,
MWilliams

Planning & Development Commission:
I think that the BCD has done some great things in the community in the 28 years,but I don't see this
EMPOWERMENT CENTER being an okay thing to drop in the residential property area. We already
have enough things in the area that bring enough unwanted traffic through our neighborhood. People
are walking all through the day and night, littering the streets and ditches, playing music so loud that it
vibrates in the homes. We have Liquor stores and people hanging out around them also.
I'm all for building a nice facility, but I just don't think that it needs to be put in the residential area
where some people are trying to make improvements to bring the neighborhood back up to standards.
This will only make it worst.
Instead of bigger buildings, we should be coming together to fight against the cause of the problem. We
need to fight just as hard to bring badly needed improvements to the very neighborhood that we are
trying to build the Center in. While new houses are going up, the old abandon ones need to come down,
and improved landscaping. and more patrol through the neighbood.
Sincerely,
MWilliams

Little Rock City Board Members
Little Rock Planning Commission
Dear Board Members and Committee Members:
Free Will Baptist Family Ministries' Florence Crittenton Home, located at 3600 West 1 lth Street,
Little Rock, AR, serves as an emergency shelter for children in DHS/DCFS custody. These
children range from ages 6-17.
Most of our residents come into DHS custody due to drug usage of parents/guardians, sexual and
physical abuse and/or abandonment. The confidentiality of our residents is a must for obvious
reasons. FWBFM Florence Crittenton Home provides safety, shelter, food, clothing and peace of
mind. FCH is a home where these young people are loved and cared for, no matter the tragic
circumstances from which they may have come. Our residents go outside to work in the yard and
play just like at home.
I am writing because of our concerns about the proposed site for the Black Community
Developers Empowerment Center directly across the street from FCH. We feel strongly that the
safety and security of our children would be jeopardized.
FWBFM strongly opposes the rezoning of 3604 West 12th Street. Another option which might fit
the needs of the community better would be the old Union Rescue Mission Thrift store facility
located directly across the street from Hoover United Methodist Church where the current drug
rehab program is ongoing.
The safety and well-being of our children is of the utmost importance to us, and we feel those
would be compromised by this proposal.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,
Debbie Stripling Dr. James H. Kilgore
