7. Staff Analysis:
The applicant, Little Rock Wastewater Utility, is
requesting a conditional use permit to allow for the
construction of an 82 foot tall antenna mast within
this R-2 zoned Little Rock Water Works water tank site.
The antenna will serve as a radio telemetry repeater
station to relay information from and to the existing
sanitary sewer pump stations and flow monitors, located
throughout the City.
The proposed 82 foot antenna will be located
immediately west of the existing 46 foot tall water
tank. The water tank is located just west of the
Little Rock Fire Station at 7400 Doyle Springs Road.
There is an existing 20 foot tall water works telemetry
antenna and an existing 40 foot tall fire department
training tower on the site.
The applicant is requesting a height variance for the
proposed antenna. A maximum height of 82 feet is
requested for the antenna. This exceeds the maximum
height (75 foot) allowed by the Little Rock Zoning
Ordinance Section 36-201(e)(1)a. This proposed 82 foot
tall antenna mast should not have an adverse effect on
the neighborhood.

Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit
application and the requested height variance.
