LE NO.: Z -2246-C A PD -R was approved by the Board of Directors on May 3, 2016, to allow for the reuse of the existing property as elderly housing. The proposal was to have 77 units with a community room, picnic area, fitness center, computer room, laundry room and on-site management and maintenance. The site would be gated and an existing building at the northeast corner of the parcel would be removed and re -purposed as open space with picnic tables. This development has was not completed. A. PROPOSAL/REQUEST/APPLICANT'S STATEMENT: The proposed project consists of the renovation of the existing 8 -story structure into a high-rise multi -family residential building; the addition of a 5 -story residential annex, and the renovation of an existing pre-engineered building into an urgent - care medical office use. The 8 -story high-rise would house 81 one -bedroom units and the proposed 5 -story annex would have 15 two-bedroom units. A total of 110 parking spaces, 6 of which are accessible, are on the site. Additional property is under the same ownership across Vance Street to the northeast in front of the high-rise. The owners are amenable to providing additional parking at that location. B. EXISTING CONDITIONS: This property was developed as a hotel and most recently was occupied by Job Corps. The property has been vacant for many years. Single and two-family residential uses are dominant in the area. The zoning map indicates several properties have been rezoned for quiet office uses; however, it is unclear if any are currently being used as offices. As noted, a vacant commercial structure is situated near the northeast corner of the property. C. NEIGHBORHOOD COMMENTS: As of this writing, staff has not received any comments from the public on this request. Notice of the public hearing was sent to all owners of properties located within 200 feet of the site and Pettaway, Downtown, and Macarthur Park neighborhood associations. D. ENGINEERING COMMENTS: PUBLIC WORKS CONDITIONS: A 20 feet radial dedication of right-of-way is required at the intersection of Vance Street and 21 st Street. 2. Show the 21st St. right-of-way on the survey. 2 FILE NO.: Z -2246-C (Cont.) 3.

TRANSPORTATION/PLANNING- Rock Region Metro: No comment received. Planning Division: The request is in the Central City Planning District. The Land Use Plan shows Mixed Use (MX) for the requested area. The Mixed Use category provides for a mixture of residential, office and commercial uses to occur. A Planned Zoning District is required if the use is entirely office or commercial or if the use is a mixture of the three. The application is to change the property from PDR (Planned Development Residential) District to POD (Planned Office Development) District to allow for the renovation of existing 8 -story building for 81 residential uses, construct a second 5 -story building with15 units and renovate an existing structure on the site for an urgent care facility. This would result in a residential density of 44 to 45 units per acre (R-6 density). Master Street Plan: To the east is Vance Street, to the west is Bragg Street and to the south are 21St Street, all three streets are Local Streets on the Master Street Plan. The primary function of Local Streets is to provide access to adjacent properties. Local Streets that are abutted by non-residential zoning/use or more intensive zoning than duplexes are considered as "Commercial Streets". These streets may require dedication of right-of-way and may require street improvements for entrances and exits to the site. Bicycle Pian: There are no bike routes shown in the immediate vicinity.

Driveways will be evaluated and reconstructed as needed to provide an ADA - compliant pathway from the right-of-way or sidewalk to the main building entrance. The applicant is requesting to reduce the number of parking spaces to 130 from the required 150 spaces under the zoning ordinance. Each apartment unit is required to have 1.5 parking spaces, yielding 144 parking spaces and the urgent care facility is proposing to provide 6 spaces, based upon six spaces per doctor. An additional parking area containing 22 parking spaces has been added to the east across Vance Street. This lot may be reduced in number based upon the landscaping requirements. The applicant suggests the reduced number of parking spaces would be sufficient as 81 of the dwelling units are one -bedroom and are likely to have only one vehicle. Staff supports the reduction of the off-street parking spaces to be provided to 130 spaces to be provided in combination of the existing parking area and the new parking area to be constructed in compliance with city standards and the comments below. Public Works has indicated this new parking area would need to work with District 4 of the Arkansas Transportation Department to obtain permits for improvements within State Highway right-of-way such as the service road and the street located to the south of the parking lot. Also, the existing street to the south of the parking lot is one way west bound; therefore, vehicles from Vance Street cannot access the parking lot. Signage and striping must be provided to prevent left turn movements of vehicles exiting the parking lot. Sidewalks with appropriate handicap ramps are required to be constructed adjacent to Vance Street in accordance with Sec. 31-175 of the Little Rock Code and the Master Street Plan. Lastly, ADA -compliant pedestrian access should be provided from the parking lot to the entrance of the property. Landscape comments on the revised plan state the new parking lot must designate 8% of the vehicular use area for green space and this green space must be evenly distributed throughout the parking area. The minimum size of an interior landscape 10 FILE NO.' Z -2246-C area shall be 150 square feet for developments 150 or fewer parking spaces. Interior islands must be a minimum of 7 and '/z feet in width. Trees shall be included in the interior landscape areas at the rate of one tree for every twelve parking spaces. A perimeter planting strip is required along any side of a vehicular use area that abuts adjoining property, or the right-of-way of any street. This strip shall be at least 9 feet wide. One tree and three shrubs or vines shall be planted for every 30 linear feet of perimeter planting strip. This property is located within the "mature" area and a 25% reduction of the perimeter width requirements is acceptable. The minimum perimeter width adjacent to the property lines shall be 6 feet, 9 inches. The west perimeter is deficient portions of north and east are also deficient. A variance from the Cit Beautiful Commission may be required to allow development as proposed. Staff is supportive of the redevelopment of this property for multifamily residential use and the urgent care clinic as proposed. J.
