Markham Little Rock, AR 72201 RE: Graham Smith Construction LLC request for zoning change in vicinity of Taylor Park Boulevard Dear Chairman Yates: I have been a homeowner in the Taylor Park Subdivision for nearly three years since July, 2007. 1 support the current zoning designation of R-2 for property located on the West side of Taylor Park Boulevard immediately South of Kanis Road. I oppose the request by Graham Smith Construction LLC for a zoning change to accommodate his construction of attached homes and commercial space in the vicinity of Taylor Park. Keeping the zoning "as is" will not prevent Mr. Smith from using his new property for residential building. No one is taking away his property rights. He will still be able to build successful residences within existing zoning requirements on his new property. And, he will still have opportunity to build a significant amount of commercial space previously approved in the Taylor Park Subdivision. As background for my reasons for opposition, I want to say that in the advertising materials and plat for Mr. Smith's Taylor Park Subdivision that were presented to me and many other buyers, the residential phases 1-4 did not include the narrow sliver of land that is the subject of today's discussion. Nor was it in phase 5, which is the commercial frontage on Kanis Road. Mr. Smith did not own the subject property when Taylor Park Subdivision was platted. Reference in the hearing notice of his plan to build "additional" attached residential buildings and two commercial buildings might give the impression that these proposed structures are part of the original Taylor Park plat and that proposed construction should be able to get "grandfathered in" since Mr. Smith, the developer of Taylor Park, already has attached homes in the residential phases of Taylor Park Subdivision and commercial designation on the east side of Taylor Park Boulevard along Kanis Road. I hope that any suggestion of grandfathering will be rejected if the subject is brought up. The following are my specific reasons to oppose Mr. Smith's request: The proposal by Mr. Smith puts too much construction and density onto too small a space. As a result, there will be too much traffic, too little parking, too little preservation of green space, and too much damage to the architectural attractiveness of nearby Taylor Park Subdivision and the new project itself. I realize the Commission hears about these issues at nearly every meeting, but that's because they are legitimate concerns as neighbors attempt to have a desirable, attractive, and stable community. Traffic and parking The density of attached homes and commercial property in this small space means more traffic into our "one entrance" subdivision. Increased parking from the commercial properties would cause spillover parking onto Taylor Park Boulevard. Although our Taylor Park Bill of Assurances does not permit on -street parking for Taylor Park residents, the density of homes/commercial structures in the new and separate development would likely mean increased on -street parking on Taylor Park Boulevard. Loss ofreen space and harm to architectural uni and integ!ily of Taylor Park area The new attached houses proposed by Mr. Smith are not consistent with the external design of the Taylor Park Subdivision just across the street from the proposed new project. Attached homes in Taylor Park have rear garages and alleys. Mr. Smith's new plans call for front garages on 11 attached residential homes. Since he has continually stressed the aesthetics and uniform architectural design of the Taylor Park Subdivision via the Bill of Assurances and the Architectural Control Committee, it would seem logical that any new homes he proposes for development directly across from Taylor Park Subdivision would have the same design, placement, and restrictions as Taylor Park homes. That means that any new attached homes would have rear garages and rear alleyways for access to garages. If Mr. Smith were allowed to build 11 attached homes with front garages and driveways along with the parking lot for 2 commercial properties, there would be almost a solid ribbon of gray concrete driveways one block long down Taylor Park Boulevard. It is true that in the Taylor Park Subdivision the detached patio homes have front garages, but the detached homes sit on much larger lots and the visual impact of front garages/driveways is not as great as those in more densely situated attached homes with front garages and driveways. Final Point: Improvement Districts; Homeowners Association I have questions about how Mr. Smith's new development along Taylor Park Boulevard will either pay for its property improvements or reimburse Taylor Park homeowners for the use of streets, sewers, etc. which Taylor Park homeowners are financing through Taylor Park Improvement Districts 26 and 27. These districts are established through City Ordinance Numbers 19530 and 19531 and provisions of the Arkansas Municipal Property Owners' Multipurpose Improvement District Law (Ark. Code Ann. 14- 2 94-101 et seq.) Since the proposed project is not in the Taylor Park Subdivision, I am sure Taylor Park property owners will not want to bear the cost of another property's infrastructure and related costs. How does Mr. Smith plan to handle this issue? Will he seek to form another improvement district for his new project? Will he seek to annex his new property to Taylor Park's Districts 26 and 27 or to Taylor Park Subdivision itself? What will be the effects on Taylor Park's homeowners if he seeks these or other changes? What input will subdivision property owners have in this possible process? Taylor Park homeowners do not sit on the Improvement District Boards (only builders or their representatives do) and have no input into the selection of Commissioners who control our assessments. It appears that new home sales in the subdivision have been completed, and I have understood that Mr. Smith no longer owns residential property in Taylor Park. This then leads to the question of when Mr. Smith's control of the residential portion of Taylor Park will be transferred to the homeowners as outlined in the Bill of Assurances. Also, are there plans to put homeowners on the Improvement District Boards? I realize that governance issues are not the main topic of discussion today, but raising these issues at this hearing is important because the Planning Commission receives bills of assurance from developers, and the City Board deals with appointment of Improvement District Commissioners. In a similar way, Arkansas Municipal Property Owners Improvement District Law deals with procedures relating to notices of assessments and reassessments, the need for hearings, and the appointment/removal of Commissioners. It is hard to imagine that Mr. Smith was not aware of the kind of city zoning restrictions in effect when he bought the new property, and to ask the City for a zoning change that negatively affects the entire neighborhood of 116 homes doesn't seem right. I ask the Planning Commission to retain the current R-2 classification for the property in question. Thank you for your consideration of my comments. I appreciate the hard work and commitment of the Planning Commission and its staff. cerely, Grace Ellen ce 3 Page 1 of 1 James, Donna From: Bozynski, Tony Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 7:04 AM To: James, Donna Subject: FW: Taylor Park Subdivision / objection -----Original Message ----- From: Cotton2284@aol.com [ma i Ito: Cotton2284@aol.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 6:43 PM To: Bozynski, Tony Subject: Taylor Park Subdivision / objection We are #55 Taylor Park Loop - Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Bardes ...... we object to the forthcoming proposal to bring office bldg. traffic and activity ONTO our essentially residential street and development. While Kanis Road of course incorporates commercial with residential, this particular proposal - considering it is not a pre-existing situation - is very poor design ..... it will cheapen our new subdivision and is not an attractive approach. There is too much empty commercial space already flooding the Little Rock market. This owner/developer needs to go back to the drawing board and re-educate himself to the realities that now exist in the marketplace. The patio homes have proven very popular - why not eliminate the trashy commercial plans and simply build more attractive patio homes.We would prefer more homeowners for neighbors instead of junky nail salons, etc. There are ample commercial strip centers throughout the area.

Also, he is planning on adding more attached homes that will not be uniformed with what he has already built and established this neighborhood. We all were told when we bought our homes that it all will look uniform and nothing will be built to be different or take away from our layout and that the outskirts of the neighborhood ALL would be unattached patios and that the attached patio homes would only be built in the middle and again Graham Smith is going against his rules that he created. This is not fair to us since he made these rules for us to follow and now he is trying to get away with this without our approval on it when we should have some saying in it since we are the home owners and live here and not him. I do not have a problem with Graham Smith building on the lot that he is planning but it should be built accordingly to his own rules and believe instead of building more attached homes and a commercial space he should only be allowed to build more detached homes like the rest of the neighborhood that are on the outskirts so the neighborhood will stay in its uniformed fashion and keep our property value up rather down and lastly it will not cause us the problems of congestion of commercial vehicles and parking.

I am outraged by and strenuously object to the proposed development of two office buildings in my residential neighborhood, particularly as the proposed buildings will be fronting out onto Taylor Park Blvd. I object on two grounds: 1. The traffic congestion that will occur as employees and clients continuously move in and out of Taylor Park to access the professional offices. 2. The degradation of property values in our residential neighborhood by the addition of professional office building space. In addition, I object to the proposed development of eleven housing units along the same strip of property; my objection is the degradation of property values based on over development of the neighborhood. Last, but not least, is the destruction of the wooded area as you enter our neighborhood. This strip of wooded area is full of birds, squirrels, rabbits and other wildlife whose habitat will be destroyed, along with the aesthetic value the woods provide as you enter our neighborhood. Please do not approve this proposed development in my neighborhood. Sincerely, Ann A. Jon 22 Chapman Lane Little Rock, AR 72211 (501) 312-5718 Page 1 of 2 James, Donna From: Bozynski, Tony Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 7:41 AM To: James, Donna Subject: FW: Taylor Park Subdivision Addition of office buildings -----Original Message ----- From: Steve Osborn [mailto:sosborn@fragramatics.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 18, 2010 1:38 PM To: Bozynski, Tony Cc: michelleosborn64@yahoo.com; jeffarthurjones@allstate.com Subject: Re: Taylor Park Subdivision Addition of office buildings To: Tony Bozynski and Little Rock Planning Division Re : Taylor Park Subdivision Proposed Development / Kanis & Taylor Park Blvd I would like to say that I am deeply distressed that anyone would be allowed to build any type of office buildings in our subdivision. This was never disclosed by the developer in any way to me BEFORE I purchased my home located at #2 Taylor Park Loop, Little Rock, AR 72211. If it would have been disclosed, I would not have purchased the property. This new proposed development will affect my property more than anyone else's property due to my location within the Taylor Park Loop subdivision as I am the first house in the subdivision. I am certain that it will also negatively impact my property value and the ability to sell my home. It also concerns me that the proposed housing units will not be uniform to the existing units. I am not against development altogether, I would simply like to see NO office buildings at all in my residential neighborhood and any proposed housing units to be identical to the existing units. Several others in my neighborhood feel even more strongly than I, namely Jeff Jones who is our local Allstate agent. I have yet to speak with one person in Taylor Park that is in favor of this development in its current state. I further believe that any office buildings in our neighborhood adds unwanted traffic ( there is only one entrance to the neighborhood) and unwanted security problems. Please DO NOT allow these office buildings to be built in my neighborhood. Please also require that any proposed housing units be identical to the existing units. I am pretty sure that you would not want a similar development in your neighborhood. Again, this was never in..any way disclosed to usby the developer. He has waited to do this (proposed development) AFTER he has finished building all the housing units he wanted to sell..... because if people had known , they most likely would not have bought property in this neighborhood.

I I 1 To: City Planning Commission Re: Taylor Park Subdivision revised plan of development to come before the commission on May 20, 2010. I am Margaret Birdsong, and I live at #7 Chapman Lane in an attached dwelling in Taylor Park off Kanis Road. I am opposed to the revised plan of development as proposed by developer Graham Smith. The following are a partial list of reasons: Taylor Park, a small loop of 77 patio homes and attached dwellings crowded into a small area has one road in loops around and comes back out. The new plan of development sets aside what we all expected when we bought our homes and brings commercial development into our neighborhood. Further, it allows that commercial development to use our only entrance and exit as its entrance and exit street rather than use Kanis. This is a road that the citizens of this neighborhood will be paying for in improvement taxes for the next twenty years. Mr. Smith will not be paying for the road, but will use it to avoid the cost of widening Kanis in this area. 2. Kanis Road in this area is a rural, though rapidly crowding, mostly residential road, and it is dangerous as it is. It has few commercial buildings out this far. Some that do exist between us and Shackleford -- or even Bowman, have been vacant for some time as have many offices and commercial buildings in west Little Rock, midtown and downtown. This city does not need more office buildings at this time, especially in this far west rural location .... Chenal is an obvious choice for such development, not Kanis. 3. We all bought our houses with the understanding that Taylor Park would be a wholly residential neighborhood and the quality of homes planned. The revised plan of 5/19/2010 Page 2 of 2 development changes the design of the detached patio homes that were to be built on the perimeter to cheaper homes, which cheapens all homes in our neighborhood and punishes the buyers who helped Mr. Smith make the money to now to destroy the quiet of our neighborhood. If Mr. Smith is approved, (with the drive off of a widened Kanis and NOT off Taylor Park Loop,) one building would be the maximum, but two as Mr. Smith plans, is double the insult. One building with a large green buffer zone with trees left standincl before the patio homes originally planned would be the very least we as his customers should expect...... though NO commercial development AT THIS TIME would be best for this city. 4. 1 have heard and read many times that this city's public servants never met a developer or development they did not like. I hope that the lives and investments of the people in 77 households will trump one man's desire for money, the only conceivable reason for this revised POD. Mr. Smith does not live here, and has not paid for the improvements he now wants to take advantage of. This plan does nothing for the good of the community or this city. I am hopeful that we have public servants who will keep the interest of the majority of its citizens at heart, and I thank you in advance for being those public servants. Finally, I know that this city employs an urban forester. Whether you consider our neighborhood urban enough for commercial development or not, please, please, send your urban forester out to see the land he has bought. He put in a 77 home complex without leaving a single tree or living thing standing ......... his bulldozers don't miss. I promise you that if you don't keep him from it, he will bulldoze down every tree on the land he just bought as soon as he can ....... and there are some lovely old trees on that land. If bulldozed, it will join all the other ugly, empty, clear-cut lots already for sale on Kanis.

Best@edwardjones.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 8:35 AM To: Bozynski, Tony Subject: Z -7875-C Taylor Park Subdivision Revised POD Due to work conflicts, my husband and I cannot attend the scheduled Planning Commission Meeting scheduled for Thursday, May 20th at 4:00 p.m., we wanted to voice our objection to the proposed changes that will effect our subdivision. When we were searching for a home to purchase, we looked long and hard. Weighing many factors into what we believed would be the best possible purchase for us. Some of the things that played into our decision was, purchase price, quality of the home built, location and the surrounding neighbor. We decided on the Taylor Park Subdivision because the neighborhood was'quiet', well kept, well built and the price was reasonable, although not cheap since the homes there range from $170,000 to $250,000. But mainly we believed it would stay a quiet well kept neighbor. With the decision by Graham Smith and Taylor Park LLC, our quiet neighbor will now be converted to a Commercial zoned subdivision with two (2) enormous office buildings situated at the very entrance to the subdivision. Already traffic in and out of Taylor Park has increased substantially due mainly to the connection of Woodlawn Subdivision to Kanis. Now they are considering increasing the traffic in and out by locating the parking area for these office complexes directly inside the main entrance. I realize we do not have much of a say, especially since the Taylor Park Subdivision POA DOES NOT have one single property owner on it's board, and is made up entirely by contractors and business owners whose only consideration is how to line their own pockets with total disregard to the very people that purchased their homes from them. It is our opinion that the proposed construction does not fit with the overall design and plan of the subdivision and will adversely effect our property values. Rezoning the area to Commercial, can also lead to someone deciding to open a business right next door to our home. If we wanted to live in an industrial park, we would have purchased a home in one. We also believe allowing the zoning change would be an open invitation for other businesses to move in. It will change the complexion of the entire subdivision. Graham Smith and the people of Taylor Park LLC do not, nor will they ever, live in this subdivision. They do not speak for us, the homeowners. Please, please, please, take into account the wants and opinions of the very people that actually live in this subdivision, over those that are in it only for own personal gain. We would like to add one more thing before closing. If in fact the revised POD is approved and construction begins it is our belief that the current plan for the eleven (11) units to be built will not fit into the overall design of the original subdivsion. It is our wish that Graham Smith and Taylor Park LLC design the the office buildings AND THE ELEVEN (11) UNITS in a way that they blend into the original structures, i.e. the eleven units should be positioned and designed to look like the detached homes that surround the perimeter of the the subdivision, such as the fronts of the homes face toward Taylor Park Blvd and Taylor Park Loop. If the overall design cannot be in 5/19/2010 Page 2 of 2 keeping with this request, then we suggest that instead of,eleven attached units, detached homes be erected instead in keeping with original design of the whole. Add our name to the list of those who object to the proposed revised POD. If we could be there in person we would. But we must work to pay for the very property that might be effected adversely by these changes.

PLEASE DISTRIBUTE TO COMMISSION Mr. Bozynski, We all got a notice from the developer that he is going to accede to residents' wishes and put up 2 car garage patio homes ..... but is also going to add another wide drive on the east side of Taylor Park Loop, I assume to do another office building in the future. If he makes the houses the same as they are around the perimeter now, I am very pleased; do n i e however, that he took out the green space between the last house and the wilding parking lot. I remember when he presented his plan, he didn't say the green space was "in trade" of doing the smaller houses .......... he said it was something they had forgotten to include and "it was needed." If it was needed then, it is needed now! ...... It would not only give us a buffer, but would add a space where neighbors could get to know each other and add something green to a neighborhood that is very much like an asphalt and brick desert at present, considering all the "rules" about what can be planted in front yards. If you are going to have an office building and a parking lot abutting residential housing, green space is ABSOLUTELY necessary to make the neighborhood livable ......... actually, any neighborhood where every square inch is building space and tightly controlled landscaping needs a little space to have some actual TREES and just breathe and take a break....... but with the building there, it should be a an absolute non- negotiable requirement .......... almost ALL commercial establishments have buffers and walls between them and homes ..... and we REALLY need think green trees/shrubs to divide us from them ......... (as well as a speed break coming into the neighborhood.) FINALLY, I THINK SOME EFFORT SHOULD BE MADE TO SAVE LARGE TREES!!! This man appears to have something against trees..... would you PLEASE make sure the city's urban forester goes out and looks at the property/proposal and see what can be saved???? At one time, Mr. Smith had proposed allowing a neighbor on the improvement district board so we would know where our money was going ....... I know that's not your area, but I believe it should still be a requirement ...... in fact, neighbors who are spending the money should be the bulk of the board! 8/11/2010 Page 2 of 2 Thank you for taking my comments into account.

We are aware of some of the concerns expressed by Taylor Park residents relative to the proposed development of the land on our eastern boundary. Of course, we realize that some future development of the property will happen within the bounds of allowed construction. We have no serious concerns except for a desire that a reasonably quiet area be maintained similar to that quiet business on the north side of Kanis Road near us. We are concerned, however, that the density of the housing additions might exceed that of the Taylor Park area already developed. We do not wish to have this added density. We realize that some "fill work" might have to be done up to our boundary. We would hope that the volume of the fill materials and the addition of a wooden fence would not be oppressive. In doing the development along our back five acres we were greatly disturbed that the boundary was clear cut even on our side without any notification or apology. We will not allow that to happen along our boundary adjacent to the proposed development. We expect boundary trees to remain without damage and with no infringement on our property. We will be open to the placing of a privacy fence on the property line, but have no desire to pay for any of it since we have a buffer of vegetation on our side. We consider the Taylor Park addition already developed to be a quality parcel of property even though we were saddened to see the green habitat disappear. We are hopeful for a satisfying future here. Of course, we have considerable vested interests in this since we have lived here almost fifty years. Sincer ly, . L es and Carol Smelley 10 Taylor Park Loop Little Rock, AR 72211 August 11, 2010 Mr. Jeff Yates Chairman, Little Rock Planning Commission 723 W. Markham Little Rock, AR 72201 RE: Graham Smith Construction LLC requestfor zoning change in vicinity of Taylor Park Boulevard Dear Chairman Yates and Commission Members: On June 30, 2010, I forwarded a petition to you on behalf of 76% of all Taylor Park homeowners. These 88 out of 116 total homeowners signed the petition to oppose developer Graham Smith's original development plan filed April 12, 2010, and his May 24'' revision of the original. This letter concerns his 3rd plan of July 6. Before offering comments on behalf of the petition signers, I want you to know that as the neighbors began the petition campaign, they did so in the face of others who said that such efforts would make no difference, that the decision had already been made, and that we were wasting our time going from door to door during the hot days of June. Those comments did not discourage us. What we found was that neighbors came together and eagerly signed. We believe that the 76% of all Taylor Park homeowners who expressed their opposition through their petition and individual letters had something to do with the most recent modification that Mr. Smith has made to his plans. We are glad to see that Mr. Smith has made changes in this latest version because they are steps in the right direction as Taylor Park develops. The suggestion made most frequently during the petition campaign was that Mr. Smith should finish out the neighborhood as he had begun the project: With detached or stand alone houses lining the perimeter of Taylor Park all the way out to Kanis Road. Even though it has taken three tries to bring stand-alone houses to most of the perimeter of Taylor Park Boulevard, this latest revision is progress. Though there are differences of opinion among the 88 petition signers on the latest revision, some homeowners would likely accept the revision. However, other homeowners continue to oppose the revision with the following points: ***Use of Taylor Park Boulevard as the access to any office building areas of the development. Having two office building driveways come off a residential street which is our only way in and out of the neighborhood raises concerns for safety and parking, especially when 11 more residential driveways will also come off this street. ***The lack of any green space at all. Instead of adding an office building to an overbuilt office market, homeowners have suggested a green space in place of an office building and keep all office buildings in the site Mr. Smith originally envisioned on the east side of Taylor Park Boulevard. On this last point, there is so much unoccupied office space along Kanis Road that it seems the last thing the area needs is another office building that will sit vacant for the foreseeable future. I've lived in Taylor Park for 3 years, and lots and office buildings that were vacant when I moved into the area are still empty. Many lots along Kanis look like they were clear-cut, leveled, and left to be an unattractive barren. What kind of restrictions can the City place upon a builder so that he will not scrape the land clear and leave it empty and unlandscaped until he gets ready to build which could be years down the road? I expect that all 88 petition signers would oppose this latest revision if Mr. Smith's plans were to clear-cut and leave the land barren as it is on a lot at the corner of Kanis and Atkins. How does the Planning Commission handle this issue? Many homeowners still have questions about the revision, and would like answers and assurances in writing from Mr. Smith himself. There are still unanswered questions including those about the operation of the improvement districts, whether new owners will share in the cost of the development, and whether the new construction, including a possible office building, will be consistent architecturally and qualitywise with the rest of Taylor Park. We encourage him to meet with homeowners or a representative group, even those who may not share all his positions. The petition signers, who represented 3 out of 4 all Taylor Park homeowners, quite literally bought into his project and we can be helpful partners along side him in the neighborhood if he will talk with us. Thank you for the Commission's own hard work and that of its staff as you consider our position.

The following complaints also reflect the feelings of my husband, Mike Rankin. We are very, very much opposed to: 1. the office building (or buildings) with extra traffic in our neighborhood ---not to mention the concrete parking lots 2. eleven more homes and more traffic entering and exiting Kanis Road 3. destroying the foliage that still exists with no planned "green space" We are very disappointed and dismayed that Graham Smith would surprise us, with his proposal, after our neighborhood is almost complete. When we made the decision to build in Taylor Park in 2007, it was our understanding that once the area was complete the office building Graham Smith now occupies would be torn down and most likely be replaced with a "quiet office space". No mention of a Professional Office Building in the Taylor Park neighborhood. Bottom line, we are much OPPOSED to this latest proposal from Graham Smith. We ask that you please consider our concerns on this matter.
