B. EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The site is presently vacant, with the foundations remains
of two houses which until recently occupied a portion of the
front of the property. The remainder of the front of the
property and the rear portion of the lot are undeveloped,
with natural vegetation and trees.
C. ENGINEERING/UTILITY COMMENTS:

Water Detention and the Excavation Ordinances are applicable
in the development of this site.
Little Rock Water Works points out that a fire hydrant may
be needed on Hinson Road near the north-east corner of the
property.
Little Rock Wastewater Utility reports that sewer is
available to the site.
The Fire Department approved the site plan as presented.
Arkansas Power and Light and Southwestern Bell Telephone Co.
each need additional easements, as shown on the returned
site plant from these utilities.
D. iSSOES/LEGAL/TECHNICAL/DESIGN:
The Site Plan and Survey submitted to date have only sketchy
information provided and are incomplete. The Site Locator
Map has been omitted, causing Waste Water Utility to comment
that they were unable to identify with certainty the site in
question. The landscaping plan has not been furnished. The
survey has not included the ownership statement required.
Miscellaneous additional data required for submission of
plans for Site Plan review has not been furnished.
Completed documents are required.
Notification of adjoining property owners, and furnishing
proof of notification, is required.
This lot is part of the Hinson Manor Office Park Preliminary
Plat under consideration by the Commission at this hearing.
The creation of the lot on which the Fellowship Bible Church
facility is to be situated is creating a land -locked lot to
the rear of the facility. A solution to creating this
untenable condition involving the rear lot is necessary.

E. ANALYSIS•
Assuming that the problem of the creation of the land -locked
lot behind the property allotted for the Fellowship Bible
Church development, there do not appear to be insurmountable
problems remaining which cannot be successfully addressed.
The site development plan which has been submitted, although
incomplete, has received factorable comments from staff and
the utility personnel. Completed and comprehensive
documents are required.
F. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends approval of the site plan, subject to
receipt of completed documents to include a properly
completed site plan, survey, landscaping plan, etc., and an
agreeable solution to the problem of the land -locked rear
lot.
SUBDIVISIOR COMMITTEE COMMENT:
Staff presented the item, and, after a brief discussion to
identify the site location to Committee members and an overview
of the site layout, the Committee recommended that the site plan
be forwarded to the Planning Commission for final disposition,
subject to the requirements of the staff recommendation.
STAFF UPDATE.
This item is contingent on approval of and establishing of the
subdivision proposed as "Pleasant Valley Living Center Addition"
originally proposed at "Hinson Manor Office Park". Staff
recommends approval of this item.
