OWNER: Various
APPLICANT: City of Little Rock
LOCATION: 8000 Geyer Springs Road
REQUEST: I-2 Light Industrial to C-4 Open
Display Commercial
PURPOSE: To reclassify properties closer to
their current use.
EXISTING USE: Various
STAFF REPORT:
As part of the neighborhood planning effort in the
Cloverdale/Watson Schools Area, the Planning Committee identified
areas they felt were inappropriately zoned. Staff reviewed the
areas identified, checking the zoning, land use and adopted Plan.
If both the use and the Plan were less intensive uses then the
current zone, Staff proceeded. For those not meeting this
requirement, the parcel was removed from the list of rezoning
candidates.
Property owners were researched at the County Assessor's Office
for the remaining parcels. Letters explaining the existing zone
and the requested new zone were sent to each owner in June of
1996. If the owners had questions or did not wish to have their
property reclassified, they were asked to contact the Planning
Staff. Any asking to not be rezoned were removed from the list.
Property owners were sent a second letter on January 13, 1997
telling them the City would proceed to rezone their property on
February 6, 1997 unless they contacted Staff. Staff, therefore
believes that there is agreement to reclassify the following
properties as described.
