Long -form PD -C with a vote of 9 ayes, 0 noes and 2 absent. On December 3, 1996, the
Little Rock Board of Directors approved Ordinance No. 17,332 establishing Grey Rock
Long -form PD -C.
The site plan included a 123,000 square foot Target Store building and 614 parking

Ordinance No. 18,040 adopted by the Little Rock Board of Directors on June 15, 1999,
allowed a revision to the previously approved site plan. The approval allowed an area
to be used for a temporary garden center display area. The applicant proposed to
utilize a 21 -foot by 42 -foot metal frame greenhouse structure with doors at both ends.
Approximately 16 parking spaces would be used for display of potted shrubs and
bagged foods. The display area was located at the end of the greenhouse structure.

concentrated to the front and right hand (east) side of the store allowing office,
stock and sales floor area to better serve Target guests. In addition to the
expansion, Target is proposing several upgrades to the exterior facade that will
serve to revamp and beautify an already well-established part of the Little Rock
area, taking into consideration the Chenal Parkway Urban Corridor District.
These upgrades will include new paint, upgraded parking area with landscape
islands and a patterned walkway.
B. EXISTING CONDITIONS:
