Notification PARTICIPATION sent to the property owners and the following neighborhood associations: Capitol Hill Neighborhood Association, Forest Hills Neighborhood Association, Love Neighborhood Association, Pine to Woodrow Neighborhood Association, and Stephens Area Faith Neighborhood Association. BACKGROUND This area comes out of the Stephens Area Neighborhood Action Plan. Early in 1998, the City of Little Rock together with leaders of five Stephen's area neighborhood associations joined to discuss the development of the Stephen's Area Neighborhood Action Plan. All involved viewed the collaboration as an opportunity to unify and revitalize the Stephen's area. BACKGROUND CONTINUED On March 9, 1998, the entire Stephen's community - consisting of residents, property owners, business owners, and civic leaders were encouraged to attend a Town Hall meeting at the Garland Elementary School. The purpose of the meeting was to solicit neighborhood -wide support for the development of a plan. As a result of these neighborhood meetings, residents and local merchants wanted to recognize existing uses. The proposed properties south of 12`h Street recognize existing uses and creates diversity for future uses. The three business nodes south of 12' Street are currently marginal businesses zoned C3. By recognizing them on the Land Use Plan, the Steering Committee feels that this would create a viable and neighborhood friendly business node. In addition, the proposed properties north of 11 `h Street between Elm Street and Lewis Street establishes potential use for small retail commercial, office, and residential space. Thus, a Mixed Use (MX) land use classification allows property owners to promote a combination of these uses. The proposed properties are currently zoned R3, 03, and C3. 12`h Street is shown as a Minor Arterial on the Master Street Plan. Pine and Cedar Streets are shown as a Collector on the plan.
