Re: Height Variance for Proposed Hilton, at 1091E Kanis Road ) V d
To whom it may concern;
This letter is a request for a height variance for the proposed Hilton Garden Inn hotel in West Little Rock,
AR. The proposed building is on the corner of Kanis Road and Shackleford Road and located in a C-3
construction zone. The height limitation for a C-3 zone building is 36ft. The proposed hotel, however, will
be a five story structure with a height of 61ft. Therefore, we are requesting for a variance of 25ft.
The variance is being requested for two reasons. The first reason is the topography of the land that the
proposed hotel will be located on. There are several low lying areas on the land that will need to be filled
before the hotel can be built. Therefore, the lowest possible height for this building will be 61ft.
She second reason that a variance is being requested is that there are several buildings and other hotels
within the 2 mile radius of the proposed hotel that are much taller than the proposed Hilton Garden Inn.
For example, The Hampton Inn and Suites is less than 0.5 miles away from the proposed hotel and is a 5
story building. Additionally, the Embassy Suites is 1 mile away from the proposed Hilton Garden Inn and
is a 9 story building. Therefore, we feel that the proposed hotel will not have an adverse effect or impact
on the physical or environmental conditions in this district.
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
