Approval of the Ordinance.
The applicant proposes to rezone the 3.067 acre property
from R-2 to PD-C to allow for the development of an auto
tire shop. The property is located on the south side of
Baseline Road, east of Dailey Drive. The property contains
a one-story single family residence located within the north
quarter of the parcel. The residence will be removed with
the proposed development. Existing driveways from
Baseline Road serve as access to the property. The
remainder of the site is undeveloped and mostly wooded.
The applicant proposes to construct a 3,900 square foot
commercial building within the north half of the property.
The building's height will not exceed 35 feet. The proposed

building will be located over 90 feet back from the north
(front) property line and 25 feet back from the west side
property line. The building will be located over 90 feet
from the east side property line and several hundred feet
from the south (rear) property line.
Paved parking will be located on the north and east sides of
the building. A single 30 foot wide access drive from
Baseline Road will be located at the northeast corner of the
site. There will be a total of 28 parking spaces. Staff
believes the proposed parking will be sufficient to serve the
tire shop use.
The proposed hours of operation will be from 7:00 AM to
7:00 PM, Monday through Saturday. The applicant notes
that there will be no outside storage of tires, parts, etc., and
that all work will take place inside the building.
A dumpster area will be located at the southeast corner of
the building. The dumpster must be screened as per Section
36-523 of the code.
All site lighting will be low-level and directed away from
adjacent properties.
All site signage must comply with Section 36-555 of the
code (signs allowed in commercial zones).
The applicant proposes to leave the south 111 feet of the
property zoned R-2 to serve as a buffer area. This
represents approximately 0.96 acre of the overall 3.067 acre
property.
To staff s knowledge, there are no outstanding issues
associated with the proposed PD-C rezoning application.
The applicant is requesting no variances.
On September 14, 2023, the Planning Commission voted
7 ayes, 2 noes, 0 absent and 2 open positions, to approve
the PD-C rezoning. There were three (3) objectors present.
All owners of property located within 300 feet of the site
and all neighborhood associations registered with The City
of Little Rock were notified of the public hearing.
