Chicot Elementary School
11100 Chicot Road
Dear Mr. Carney:
Part of the approval of a Conditional Use Permit for planned expansion of Chicot Elementary
School granted by the City of Little Rock states:
I
With site development, provide design of street conforming to the Master
Street Plan. Construct one-half street improvement to Chicot Road with planned
development. Chicot Road is required to be widened with the back of curb to be
located 29.5 feet from the centerline. The improvements should begin at the
north driveway.
While the Little Rock School District has no objection to fulfilling this requirement, the cost of
the improvements, which includes five utility relocations, is burdensome at this. time. Additional
time to plan for and budget for the cost for these required street improvements would be greatly
beneficial. Accordingly, on behalf of Little Rock School District, I request consideration for a
five-year deferral to fulfill the street -widening requirement and do, hereby, request separate
approval of a building permit to proceed with the expansion project.
A preliminary site plan for the Chicot Elementary School improvements is attached for reference.
Thank you for your consideration of this request. Please call if you have questions regarding this
matter or if you need additional information.
Sincerely,
Wayne E. Adams, Director
Maintenance and Operations

Chicot Elementary School Boundary Street Deferral
Chicot Road along the frontage of Chicot Elementary School ("the school") is classified
on the Master Street Plan as a principal arterial street. Per the Master Street Plan, a
principal arterial street is required to have a 110 ft right-of-way and 5 lanes including
additional turn lanes if needed. Currently, Chicot Road is built with only 2 lanes. The
school has 400 ft of frontage in which they are requesting deferral of construction for 5
years, until a future phase of development, or until adjacent property develops whichever
occurs first. This deferral is specifically for the addition of a lane and a half of pavement
with curb, gutter, street lights, and striping. The school will dedicate 55 ft of right-of-
way from the centerline prior to issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the phase
currently proposed for construction.
Staff recommends the approval of a 5 year deferral of the street improvements, until a
future phase of development, or until adjacent property develops whichever occurs first
as required by the Boundary Street Ordinance and the Master Street Plan.

1 Eastbound right -turn lane on Hwy 10 needs to be 250 ft. long with 100 ft. taper
2 Location of northern bus entrance does not meet driveway spacing requirement. The drive must be
located at a distance of 250 ft. minimum from an intersecting street i.e. Hwy. 10.
3 Driveways on Taylor Loop must have adequate Intersection Sight Distance as required by latest
edition of Green Book. Contact Nat Banihatti in Traffic Engineering at 379-1818 for additional
information. Note that Stopping Sight Distance is different from Intersection Sight Distance.
4 The intersection of Taylor Loop and Forest Lane will be STOP controlled on minor approaches. This
will require police assistance during school peak -hours so that traffic can exit Forest Lane safely.
5 Since school traffic tends to have very short peak periods with very high traffic volumes, the
northbound left -turn bay on Taylor loop at Forest Lane must be able to store at least ten cars. This
will require 250 ft. left -turn bay. If comment is not feasible, a properly designed standard roundabout
may be considered as an option.
6 All driveway/intersection designs must be checked using Turning Vehicle templates or software such
as AutoTrack to ensure school buses and service trucks can make the runs.

7 Street lighting must be provided on all boundary streets. This will require underground circuit with
direct -burial galvanized steel poles as installed by Entergy with differential costs paid by the
applicant. Design and submit street light plans for the project. Occupancy permit will not be issued
until all street lights are functional. Contact Steve Philpott of Traffic Engineering @ 379-1813 for
street light requirements.

excessive. Final intersection design to be established with the roadway design. Layout as shown is
only schematic. Final engineering design will be per AASHTO Green Book Standards.
13 Currently, vehicles at the church located south of the subject property park in the right-of-way and
back out directly onto Forest Lane. No future vehicles will be allowed to back directly out onto
Forest Lane. The applicant should contact the church pertaining to this matter and show proposed
driveways on the southside of Forest Lane and on the north side at the property not owned by the
district. It is believed that previously, right-of-way has been dedicated to the City on the south side
of Forest Lane at the church.

15 Taylor Loop Road is classified on the Master Street Plan as a collector street. A dedication of right-
of-way 30 feet from centerline will be required.
