STAFF REPORT:
The following six rezonings are part of a consent judgment
that settled a lawsuit challenging the September 1982
annexation of certain lands and the November 1982 referendum
confirming the annexation. The judgment was signed in July
1983 and in it the City agreed to rezone a total of 10
tracts of land. The remaining four tracts will be addressed
at a later date.
The six sites are all located in southwest Little Rock and
are a part of the Geyer Springs East District Plan area.
This area was recently brought into the City by the Supreme
Court action upholding the City and the November 1982
referendum. Staff is currently in the process of developing
a detailed land use plan for the district.

Item Nos. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 - Continued
The current land use for each property is:
No. 6/8120 Doyle Springs Road - A mix of commercial and
light industrial uses.
No. 7/8313 Doyle Springs Road - A mobile home park.
No. 8/8414 Doyle Springs Road - A mobile home park if the
legal description is corrected or a single family
residence.
No. 9/5101 Marie Circle - A single family residence and
undeveloped land.
No. 10/8805 Dreher Lane - An auto service use.
S No. 11/8309 Stanton Road - Three single family residences
and a mobile home park.
The general land use in the area is a mix of residential and
nonresidential uses with a number of mobile home parks.
Because of being a consent judgment, the properties must be
taken through the normal rezoning processes with final
action being adoption of an ordinance by the City Board of
Directors.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (7-30-85)
The Commission discussed this matter at length. There were
several comments offered questioning the appropriateness of
this action as well as the profound effect on newly annexed
areas for future land use planning. The matter was then
called to the floor for a vote. The Commission voted
0 ayes, 8 noes, 2 absent, 1 abstention (John Clayton) to
recommend denial of the rezonings.
