The following documents are enclosed: • PZD Long -Form Application • Preliminary Site Plan • Affidavit from Property Owner • FedEx Proof of Delivery —Application Fee The proposed project is a Caliber Collision auto body shop to be located at 10302 Colonel Glenn Road in Little Rock. The subject parcel (PID 44L-144.00-044.00) is ±4.95 acres and is currently zoned R-2 (Single -Family Residential) and contains one single- family residence. The application seeks to rezone the parcel as 1-2 (Light Industrial) in which the proposed use is allowed by right. The project will construct a ±16,109 SF single -story pre-engineered metal building. The project will include constructing a new driveway from Colonel Glenn Road which will require coordination with the Arkansas Department of Transportation and will require a variance from the City of Little Rock for driveway spacing. The proposed driveway will be spaced ± 160' from a driveway to a neighboring parcel to the east which is less than the 300' spacing required by City ordinance. The project proposes 105 parking spaces (21 spaces for customer parking with the remainder dedicated to storage), a perimeter security fence to be chain link with vinyl slats, potential above- and below -ground stormwater management structures, and associated utility infrastructure. Per Central Arkansas Water, an existing 20" water main just south of Colonel Glenn Road will be tapped to provide water service to the site. Per the Little Rock Water Reclamation Authority, no public sanitary sewer infrastructure is available within 300' of the site. Therefore, the site is intended to be served by a septic system. The project will use ± 2.7 acres of the overall parcel. The client proposes to subdivide the parcel in a future application once site design is finalized. The $280.00 fee for this application has been submitted to your office separately via FedEx. Proof of delivery is enclosed. Thank you for your consideration of this application.
