STAFF ANALY z
The site under consideration is currently zoned MF -6, and
the request is to rezone the property to R-2. The land is
located north of the Chenal Parkway and directly west of the
St. Charles development. If the rezoning is granted, the
proposal is to plat the acreage into 59 lots as a
continuation of the St. Charles Addition. Several years
ago, the Shackleford Dairy Farm area was involved in a major
rezoning and this property was part of that effort. (The
preliminary plat is scheduled to be reviewed at the
July 13, 1993 Planning Commission meeting.)
Zoning in the general vicinity is R-2, MF -6, MF -18, 0-3,
C-2, PCD and OS. At this time, the existing land use is
single family, a church and a home center. A high
percentage of the land is undeveloped, including the MF -18,
0-3 and C-2 sites.
Rezoning the 18 acres to R-2 will reinforce the primary
residential pattern, conventional single family lots, found
in the area and staff supports the reclassification. There
are no outstanding zoning issues associated with this
request.

ITEM Z-5708 n
The request is in the Chenal District. The adopted plan
calls for single family - no issue.
The Commission may wish to discuss the implications of the
loss over a square mile of multifamily zoning and/or land
use this calendar year in west Little Rock. These changes
may have impacted the overall density of development and the
ability to support proposed commercial developments.
However, it should be noted that in this case, the density
does not change significantly and the request is in
conformance with the plan.
E INEERI OMMENTS
