Center Street, Beebe, AR 72012 Figure 1. 913 McMath, Little Rock, AR August 3, 2023 ITEM NO.: ONE (Cont.) FILE NO.: HDC2023-022 2 AREA: 0.53 acres NUMBER OF LOTS : 1 WARD: 1 HISTORIC DISTRICT: MacArthur Park Historic District HISTORIC STATUS: Non-Contributing CURRENT ZONING: UU – Urban Use A. BACKGROUND Location The subject property is located at 913 McMath Avenue. The property’s legal description is “Lots 12, 13 and the South ½ of Lot 14, all of the South ½ of Lot 5, all of the Lot 6 and all of Lot 7 lying West of the U.S. Interstate Highway No. 30 Right of Way, all in Block 4, Masonic Addition to the City of Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas.” Context The subject property is the site of a one-story commercial building with exterior walls of combination brick veneer and siding, built 1981. The structure is currently vacant and has solely been used as a Pizza Hut restaurant. In c. 1971, three historic residences were demolished following the rezoning of the property from two-family to commercial for the purpose of new commercial development. The structure is a Non- Contributing resource identified in the 2007 National Register survey form, PU2943. The building is oriented to face Interstate 30 and is frame construction on a continuous foundation. The structure has a rectangular plan with a hipped Figure 2. Location of 913 McMath within the MacArthur Park Historic District. August 3, 2023 ITEM NO.: ONE (Cont.) FILE NO.: HDC2023-022 3 standing seam metal roof. The roof had a central built-up pyramid for a Pizza Hut sign which is no longer present. Windows are stationary in a trapezoidal shape, some being open corner windows. Several windows are horizontal and sliding, to service a drive-through. The rear of the building faces McMath and has a freezer addition attached. From construction, the building originally displayed a wood shake roof. In 1996, the property was updated to the iconic “red roof” design conceptualized by architect Richard D. Burke in the late 1960s. The pizza company’s red roof architecture is recognizable across the United States. According to the company’s blog, Pizza Hut opened in Wichita, Kansas by two college-aged brothers who borrowed $600 from their mom. By 1971, Pizza Hut Inc. became the No. 1 pizza restaurant chain in the world in both sales and number of restaurants. Recent/Previous Action In 1968, a zoning permit (Z-2181) was denied for the rezoning of three lots from two-family to commercial for the purpose of a service station. In 1978, a CUP (Z-3237) was issued to Dr. Lem Clement to allow for a restaurant of “nondrive-in nature”. In 1989, a COA (HDC1989-004) was issued to the National Pizza Co. to add a drive through window. Figure 4.

August 3, 2023 ITEM NO.: ONE (Cont.) FILE NO.: HDC2023-022 4 In 1996, a COA (HDC1996-006) was issued to Robert Cotton to replace the wood shake roof with red standing seam metal. No other actions were found. B. PROPOSAL/REQUEST/APPLICANT’S STATEMENT: The application requests for the permitted demolition of all structures on the property, these being: the primary structure and grease trap. The application notes that the asphalt parking lot will remain, and all vegetation will be removed. C. EXISTING CONDITIONS: See site photos (Attachment A) and application packet (Attachment B). Currently all window and door openings are boarded. Access to the property is restricted. D. NEIGHBORHOOD COMMENTS: At the time of distribution, there were no comments regarding this application. All owners of properties located within 200 feet of the site and all neighborhood associations registered with the City of Little Rock that surround the site were notified of the public hearing. E. ANALYSIS: The Design Guidelines provide five conditions in which a demolition may be granted by the Commission (page 55). Section VI. 2. 1-5. Demolition states: 1. “The public safety and welfare requires the removal of the building, as determined by the building or code inspector and concurring reports commissioned by and acceptable to the LRHDC from a structural engineer, architect, or other person expert in historic preservation. 2. Rehabilitation or relocation is impossible due to severe structural instability or irreparable deterioration of a building. 3. Extreme hardship has been demonstrated, proven, and accepted by the LRHDC. Economic hardship relates to the value and potential return of the property, not to the financial status of the property owner. August 3, 2023 ITEM NO.: ONE (Cont.) FILE NO.: HDC2023-022 5 4. The building has lost its original architectural integrity and no longer contributes to the district. 5. No other reasonable alternative is feasible, including relocation of the building.” Staff finds the primary condition relating to this property in consideration of demolition is the lack of identified historic value. The property has previously been surveyed for historic and cultural significance and no significance has been determined by the National Park Service at this time. Built in 1981, the property is less than 50 years old and outside the period of significance of the MacArthur Park Historic District (1842-1960). The property is not independently listed in the National Register. Staff confirmed with the National Register team at the AHPP that there were no current initiatives at the state or federal level concerning Pizza Hut restaurants as a context or this specific structure. Staff is unaware of any local initiatives or designations concerning this structure’s historic and cultural value. Beyond a 2023 Limited Asbestos Inspection (Attachment B), no reports were submitted with the application concerning public safety. Relocation of the structure is not being considered by Staff as an alternative since it has been determined that the structure is non-contributing to the district and has no identified historic value. Concerning substantial hardship, no exact cost comparisons have been provided by the applicant and no documentation has been submitted identifying circumstances unique to the property under substantial hardship. The Guidelines also state that significant care should be taken when reviewing an application for demolition to consider the impact to the district. The Little Rock Historic Preservation Code states (Sec. 23-121.) that in consideration of a COA for a demolition, the Commission may defer the matter to consider the following alternatives: “(a) Sources of funding for preservation and restoration activities, if lack of such funds is the reason for the request to demolish. (b) Adaptive use changes, if there are conditions under which the required preservation of a historic landmark would cause undue hardship to the owner or owners, so long as such changes are in keeping with the spirit and intent of this division. (c) An attempt to find a purchaser for the property who would maintain the landmark in a suitable and acceptable manner within the limits of this division. August 3, 2023 ITEM NO.: ONE (Cont.) FILE NO.: HDC2023-022 6 (d) The feasibility of moving the structure to another appropriate location. (e) Any such other solution as may be deemed advisable and in keeping with the spirit and intent of this division.” Considering alternatives to demolition according to Sec. 23-121, the structure is not eligible for rehabilitation tax credits or restoration grants since the structure is not a contributing structure to the district and is not independently listed. An attempt to find a purchaser who would maintain the building, or to consider adaptive use changes, is unnecessary since the structure does not have landmark status and the current property owner is active in the property’s improvement. Concerning the MacArthur Park Historic District National Register status, the demolition of the structure at 913 McMath will not impact the district’s eligibility totals since it is a non-contributing structure that is not eligible in the district due to the year it was built. Staff finds the application is within the conditions for demolition. Any new construction on the property will require the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness. F. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the application with the following conditions: 1. Obtain required permits. 2. Properly prepare the structure for demolition. 3. Dismantle and remove the structures from the property avoiding damage to surrounding structures. 4. Remove all debris.

Materials that were sampled included ceramic tile thin -set and grout, wallboard systems walls, and wallboard system ceilings. This assessment found no Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) detected in any of the suspect materials sampled. An ACM is a material that contains greater than 1% asbestos by weight or volume as determined via Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) methods. PURPOSE OF SURVEY ATOKA, Inc. was retained by BMD Builders LLC to inspect the building for the presence of asbestos containing materials prior to any renovation/demolition. ATOKA, Inc. visited the building on May 4, 2023, for the purpose of inspecting, sampling and quantifying ACM. ATOKA, Inc. inspected the building to identify suspect asbestos containing material (SACM), which is classified into two categories. Those materials which can be reduced to powder or crumbled under light hand pressure are referred to as "friable" ACM (e.g., ceiling textures and ceiling tiles, thermal system insulation, etc.). Those materials that cannot be easily crumbled are referred to as "non -friable" ACM (e.g., resilient flooring, roofing, mastics, etc.). The inspection was conducted by Vick Loomis of ATOKA, Inc. Mr. Loomis is an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) accredited and licensed Arkansas Asbestos Inspector's (License # 008695) who has been trained to survey, sample, and assess the conditions of SACM. ATOKA, Inc. is an ADEQ licensed Asbestos Consultant in good standing (License #000242). SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS ATOKA, Inc. conducted an asbestos assessment in general accordance with EPA NESHAP protocol requiring that a sufficient number of bulk samples be collected that represent each homogeneous SACM. ATOKA, Inc. identified suspect asbestos containing materials (SACM) and characterized these Asbestos Survey — Old Pizza Hut 131d., 913 McMath Ave, Little Rock, AR, 72202 ATOKA, Inc Project # 23-312, 1701 1-30 Suite 119, Little Rock, AR - Ph 501-455-1700 - Fax 501-455-1864 materials into distinct homogeneous areas during the site visit inspection. During the course of the inspection this information was then used to establish a sampling plan. The samples of SACM collected from the building were obtained by physically removing a small portion (approximately one square inch) of the material using a sharp instrument. All layers of the material samples were penetrated and registered as separate samples. Disturbance of adjacent material was kept to a minimum during the sampling program. Each sample was placed into a separate labeled container, which was then sealed. The sampling instrument was cleaned to remove materials that could cross -contaminate the next sample. Each sample was labeled with the sample number and location and logged onto the floor plan. All samples collected during the site investigation are listed in Appendix A. Three (3) SACM's were identified of which six (6) samples were collected and analyzed for asbestos using the EPA "Interim Method for Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Insulation Samples" [40 CFR Part 763, Appendix E, Subpart E, improved (EPA-600/R-93/116)], by Crisp Laboratory, a NVLAP Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) accredited laboratory. The ACM as determined by PLM examination are those materials which contain greater than 1% asbestos by weight or volume. REPORT OF FINDINGS There was no asbestos detected in any of the samples collected. The laboratory report for bulk sample PLM analysis is found in Appendix ' A" of this document. RECOMMENDATIONS ATOKA, Inc., recommends that this report and all records should be kept by the building owner as long as the building is in existence. All information concerning this property should be forwarded to all future property owners and made available to outside contractors that may disturb the materials identified to contain asbestos. ATOKA, Inc. recommends that prior to any demolition of a building, the mandatory ten (10) day Notice of Intent (NOI) be filed with the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) as required by EPA NESHAP regulations and Arkansas Asbestos Abatement Regulation # 21 effective 1997.

R-93 / 116 (Improved). The sample is first viewed with the aid of a stereomicroscope. Numerous liquid slide preparations are created for analysis under the polarized microscope where identifications and quantifications are preformed. Calibrated liquid refractive oils are used as liquid mouting medium. These oils are used for Identification (dispersion staining). A calibrated visual estimation is reported, should any asbestlfonn mineral be present. Other techniques such as acid washing are used in conjugation with refractive oils for detection of smaller quantities of asbestos. All asbestos percentages are based on calibrated visual estimation traceable to NIST standards for regulated asbestos. Traceability to measurement and calibration Is achieved by using known amounts and types of asbestos from standards where analyst and laboratory accuracy are measured. As little as 0.001% asbestos can be detected In favorable samples, while detection In unfavorable samples may approach the detection limit of 0.50% (well above the laboratory definition of trace). Disci.Ls oiit Vermiculite containing samples may contain trace amounts of actinollteAremolite. When not deleted by PLM, these samples should be analyzed using TEM methods and I or water separation techniques. Suspected actinolite/vermicullte presence will be Indicated through the sample comment section of this report. Fibrous talc containing samples may contain a regulated asbestos fiber known as anthophyllits. Under certain conditions the same fiber may actually contain both talc and anthophyllite (a phenomenon called Intergrowth). Again, TEM detection methods are recommended. CA Labs PLM report comments will denote suspected amounts of asbestiform anthophyllite with talc, where further analysis is recommended. Some samples (floor tiles, surfacings, etc.) may contain fibers too small to be detectable by PLM analysis and should be analyzed by TEM bulk protocols. A 'trace asbestos' will be reported 9 the analyst observes far less than 1 % asbestos. CA Labs dines "trace asbestos" as a few fibers detected by the analyst In several preparations and will indicate as such under these circumstances. Since allowable variation In quantification of samples close to 1% Is high, <1% maybe reported. Such results are Ideal for point counting, and the technique Is mandatory for friable samples (NESHAP, Nov. 1990 and clarification letter 8 May 1991) under 1% percent asbestos or "trace asbestos". In order to make all InittaI PLM reports Issued from CA Labs NESHAP compliant, all <1% asbestos results (except floor tiles) will be point counted at no addltlonal charge. Qualifications CA Labs is accredited by the National Voluntary Accreditation Program (NVLAP) for selected test methods for airborne fiber analysis (TEM), and for bulk asbestos fiber analysis (PLM). CA Labs Is also accredited by AIHA LAP, LLC. in the PLM asbestos field of testing for Industrial Hygiene. All analysts have completed college courses or hold a degree in a natural science (geology, biology, or environmental science).
