ITEM NO.: 6
FILE NO.: MSP15-01
Name: Master Street Plan Amendment - 1-430 Planning District
Location: 36th Street and Bowman Road
Request: Remove Proposed Collector
Source: Tim Daters, White Daters
PROPOSAL / REQUEST:
A Master Street Plan amendment in the 1-430 Planning District to Remove a Proposed
Collector.
CURRENT MASTER STREET PLAN:
A Proposed Collector is shown on the Master Street Plan connecting 36th Street and
Bowman Road in the northeast quadrant of that intersection. The proposed Collector is
shown north from the midpoint on 36th between 1-430 and Bowman. It curves to the
west and intersects Bowman Road just south of Brook Forest Drive in the Sandpiper
Creek Addition to the north. The primary function of a Collector Street is to provide a
connection from Local Streets to Arterials.
Both 36th Street and Bowman Road are shown as Minor Arterials in this vicinity.
A Minor Arterial provides connections to and through an urban area and their primary
function is to provide short distance travel within the urbanized area. Entrances and
exits should be limited to minimize negative effects of traffic and pedestrians on Minor
Arterials. These streets may require dedication of right-of-way and may require street
improvements for entrances and exits to the site.
FUTURE LAND USE PLAN:
The property between 1-430 and Bowman Road north of 36th and south of the
residential subdivision is shown as Mixed Use except for a small parcel along the
north side of 36th that is shown as Mixed Office Commercial. At the proposed
Collector's intersection with 36th, the south side of 36th is also shown as Mixed Office
Commercial. At the proposed Collector's intersection with Bowman, the west side of
Bowman Road is shown as Residential Medium Density. Suburban Office is shown
west of the intersection of 36th and Bowman.
HISTORIC DISTRICTS:
There are no historic districts that would be affected by this amendment.

PUBLIC WORKS COMMENTS:
The recently dedicated public right-of-way, which is a portion of the proposed collector
located on the north side of W. 36th St., should be abandoned. Access, drainage, and
utility easements should be maintained in place of the public right-of-way.
ANALYSIS:
This area of Little Rock with its scattered development still has a rural feel to it. The
parcel in question was approved for a Planned Development -Residential (PD -R) with
500 units of multi -family with three phases. This development, along with Rock Creek
Church, comprises over 75% of the area shown as Mixed on the plan.
A Collector Street, by definition, provides a connection from Local Streets to Arterials.
With these two developments encompassing the majority of the land in that quadrant,
there are no local streets currently and none anticipated to be built. The church's
property is roughly the eastern half of the area between 1-430, 36th, Shady Ridge Drive
and Bowman Road. The property line is where the Collector intersects 36th Street.
The apartments have the majority of the western half with the exception of the corner
at 36th and Bowman. With these two large property owners, no public streets are
anticipated. The traffic network for the apartment complex and the church are internal
to their developments. The last parcel, at the northeast corner of Bowman and 36th
has frontage on both streets, so no local streets may be necessary depending on the
development pattern.
The apartments and the church share an entrance where the proposed Collector
intersects 36th Street. This will be a proposed secondary entrance to the apartments
and one of two existing entrances to the church.
With the zoning of the area, if a local street were to be built, it would be built to a
"commercial" standard, which is the same street section as a Collector street.
NEIGHBORHOOD COMMENTS:
Notices were sent to the following neighborhood associations: Sandpiper and John
Barrow. Staff has received no comments from area residents or neighborhood
associations.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff believes the change is appropriate. With the proposed and existing developments,
a Collector Street is not necessary at this location.
