VAN DOVER CHARLKSS BOHANNON Via Email RE; Appeal of Item MSP12.06, Master Street Plan Amendment to extension of Wellington Plantation Drive Dear Mayor Stodola and Members of the Board of Directors: At the meeting of the Little Rock Planning Commission held yesterday, Thursday, November 29, 2012, Deltic Timber Corporation presented three separate Applications addressing the future use of an approximately 135 acre tract of undeveloped property lying east of Rahling Road in West Little Rock, Arkansas. The three items presented at the Planning Commission were as follows: 1. LU12-19-01 A Future Land Use Plan Amendment in the Chenal Planning District on east side of Rahling Road, south of Pebble Beach Road from Residential Low Density and Residential Medium Density to Park/Open Space, Office, 1160070-v1 WRIGHT, LIND5EY & JENNINGS LLP November 30, 2012 Page 2 Neighborhood Commercial, Residential Medium Density, and Residential Low Density. 1.1 Z -8155-B Rezoning from R-2 and MF -18 to R-2, MF -12, 0-3, C-1 and OS, East side of Rahling Road, south of Pebble Beach Drive, 1.2 MSP12-06 Master Street Plan Amendment to extension of Wellington Plantation Drive. At the conclusion of the presentations of these three items, the Planning Commission voted on each item separately. By vote of the Planning Commission, Items 1 and 1.1 were approved and it is our understanding that the Ordinance approving these matters will be forwarded to the Board for consideration. Item 1.2, concerning the Master Street Plan, was not approved by the Planning Commission.. Please consider this the Applicant's formal appeal of the Planning Commission's denial and/or recommendation of denial of Item 1.2 as described hereinabove. By copy of this letter to Ms. Langley, City Clerk, we are lodging the Applicant's appeal with the City. As these three items are interrelated, it is essential that all three be taken up by the Board at the same Board meeting. We have previously requested that all three of the Applications described herein be presented to the Board of Directors at its final meeting in December which we understand is scheduled for Tuesday, December 18, 2012. In order that all three items be presented, we understand that it will be necessary for the Board to set a hearing on the appeal of Item 1.2 and therefore we ask for the Board's consideration and indulgence in allowing a resolution to be placed upon the Board's agenda for consideration at its next regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday, December 4, 2012. We understand that the agenda for this meeting has previously been set by the Board and would ask for your consideration of this request as this is an urgent matter and in order for all three items to be considered together before the end of 2012, as we have previously explained, should be taken up at the same meeting in December. 11 s00i0-vI W$IOHT, LINDSFY & JENNINOS LLI' November 30, 2012 Page 3 We are happy to cooperate with the City Attorney's office in the preparation of an appropriate resolution and respectfully ask for your approval of this request, Cordially, WR , LINDSEY & JENNINGS LLP 3U)AL tog' Joh William Spivey I A rneys for Deltic T' her Corporation JWS/jlh cc: Mr. Bruce Moore (via email) Ms. Susan Langley (via email) Mr. Lance Mines (via email) Mr. Gene Fortson (via email) Mr. Tony Bozynski (via email) Mr. Larry Grace (via email) 1160070-v 1
