Over development on an under developed road is never safe. * The proposed zone change is to accommodate Row Housing, AKA multi -family units. The proposed small dwellings are for multi -family 4-plex units. No matter how the developer cloaks the application in "residential" terms, in the end, these are apartment style and sized, multi -family 4-plex units. These apartment style; 4-plex units are extremely inconsistent with the existing single family residential dwellings in our neighborhood. * As stated in the developer's own application for zone change, these dwellings would be under 1200 square feet of heated space, as measured by FOUR OUTSIDE walls. This developer's statement is very misleading and contradictory to the attached plat map submitted along with the application. As demonstrated in the plat map, each space of 1200 sq ft of heated space is actually attached by INTERIOR walls, there are NOT FOUR OUTSIDE walls to each 1200 square feet of heated space. Therefore, the developer's description is inaccurate. The submitted plat map clearly demonstrates apartment/multi-family 4-plex units. * Carter Lane is a narrow, dead end -street with no intersecting streets, nor turn around access. It is not the responsibility of the residents to provide turn around access for these trapped vehicles. Larger vehicles MUST back all the way out. Due to the construction currently underway at Carter Oaks, this has already been a huge problem on Carter Lane. # Originally, Carter Lane was built by a private individual and not by the city, it is questionable if the depth/thickness of the asphalt of Carter Lane is up to city code for a standard city street? This might explain the poor condition of Carter Lane? In addition, the thinly paved asphalt on Carter Lane is too narrow for the safe flow of heavy two way traffic. * Carter Lane is currently a narrow lane that is not safe for heavy two-way traffic, as one Svehicle must pull to the side to allow the other to pass safely. Currently, neighbors yield to each other on the street. Increased traffic would serve only to exacerbate the difficulties vehicles, including emergency response vehicles have reaching the homes at the end of Carter Ln. * In the summer of 2012, during the wild fire that raged between Rahling Road and Carter Lane, many residents on Carter Lane were trapped in their homes, due to the narrow road being blocked by fire and rescue trucks. When the fire department was called to another location, Carter Lane, being so narrow, forced 3 of the 4 fire trucks to back all the way down Carter Lane to Taylor Loop Rd. One of the fire trucks was further delayed, while attempting the arduous task of turning around, the truck became wedged between two private driveways. Ultimately, the fire truck struck a fence. Every week, the city garbage trucks used to service Carter Lane do the same; backing up ALL the way down Carter Lane until they reach Taylor Loop Rd. Page 2 of 2 * Carter Lane vacant land price is being driven up by the multifamily housing developers, whereas the recent agreement by single family resident was denied by the seller (who does not live in Little Rock) in favor of the Carter Oaks proposal in favor of the multifamily developer's current option. At issue is the multifamily developer affords a higher threshold of land cost divided by (in the example of carter Oaks) 18 residences. Carter Lane and surrounding residents express concern that while the recent real estate adjustment made every attempt to raise values of the homes on and near Carter Lane, the value of these existing homes are being undermined in value as the city turns Carter Lane into Multi -Family Housing Projects. Will there be an immediate tax credit issued for the current homeowners? • Carter Lane residents are also aware that in the charting of LaMarche Drive which runs west and parallel to Carter Lane, the city requires any developer to build the street with curb, gutter, and sidewalk from existing city standard streets to the new development. Carter Lane residents request the same standard apply to the aging and decaying lane named Carter requiring the Carter Oaks developer to abide by the same resolution as with LaMarche. The Carter Oaks Developers, as in other areas of the city, should be required to build a city standard street from Taylor Loop to the Carter Oaks Development of connected apartment style housing. * Carter Lane, lacks sufficient curbing, drainage, lighting, and sidewalks, putting increased numbers of residents and children at risk on this narrow street. Simply put, Carter Lane can not safely facilitate heavier traffic, what is the cay pKgpared to do about it? * If the re -zoning is granted, what is the cily prepared to do in order to bring Carter Lane up to city street standard of asphalt width and depth, gutters, sidewalks, drainage, and lighting? What is the city prepared to do about no sidewalk for our children who must walk in the narrow street to the neighborhood elementary school? * What is the city prepared to do to accommodate the large vehicles including emergency response vehicles and construction trucks needing a place to turn around on Carter Lane? * What is the city prepared to do as far as tax credits to current homeowners on Carter Lane and surrounding neighborhoods affected by undermined land values? Carter Lane is a narrow, poorly constructed street, designed and zoned to accommodate a few single family residences. Changing that plan; to drop kick multi -family housing in the midst of our planned, single family residential neighborhood would be a total disregard to the existing residents in and near Carter Lane, who bought in to the original plan and zoning. Over development on an underdeveloped road presents safety risks for children and residents. What is the city prepared to do, to keep the children and all residents safe? I OPPOSE rezoning to any area of Carter Lane. Please respect the original single family - residential zoning of our neighborhood. k d% a oj ��cj D m P 5 oj ��cj D m P 5 R2 o Q 0 o ❑ AF a Ef D n ❑ � � Ll El 0= ❑ Q ❑ d; a Ap EM Et12G1�2 Q d�0 pQ Qa q CY :Ej � ° a-4\ 17 a a Q CD 0 Q Q B E Q d Q Q q Area Zoning Case: Z-8808 Location: 4411 Carter Lane Ward: 5 PD: 19 0 125250 500 Feet CT. 42.12 TRS: T2N R14W24 UL: Id a o 0 0 a Q bp .'. 0 o �a G laC�b�a p El, Q d u u� Q Q q E 15T fl Da FWOM q �] a� �laq��laa� o � RL d0 Q i� 0 p LJ o ED Q a fl ] E-1 qpa a Q d u o C� D 4 1 ram` C"J a O E3 a Q C] oC'j� aa I� r3 cl Land Use Plan Case: Z-8808 Location: 4411 Carter Lane N A Ward: 5 PD: 19 0 125250 500 Feet CT: 42.12 TRS: T2N R14W24 �dg Z-8808 0 4411 CARTER LANE 0 PD-R C-)] City of Little Rock Department of Planning and Development Planning 723 West Markham Street Zoning and Little Rock, Arkansas 72201-1334 Subdivision Phone: (501) 371-4790 Fax: (501) 399-3435 or 371-6863 October 26, 2012 Thomas Engineering 3810 Lookout Road North Little Rock, AR 72116 Re: Valley Oak Addition Short -form PD-R (Z-8808), located at 4411 Carter Lane Dear Sirs: This is to advise you that in connection with your request concerning the above referenced file number the following action was taken by the Planning Commission at its meeting on October 25, 2012: Approved with conditions.

Carter Lane is a short dead-end street. It has no intersecting streets, is narrow and has no curbs and gutters. The homes in the neighborhood are mostly larger homes on estate size lots. The neighborhood strenuously objected to the proposed development of another subdivision, Carter Oaks, which also planned its access to and from Carter Lane. Subsequently, the developer altered his plan so that traffic is to be diverted away from Carter Lane. As then, we still object to adding traffic to Carter Lane. However, our strongest objection is how the proposed Valley Oak Addition will change the very nature of the Carter Lane neighborhood. Dropping fifteen lots on barely two acres into the middle of a neighborhood consisting primarily of large homes on estate lots is not a proper thing to do. Valley Oak is not compatible with this neighborhood. The proposal is nothing more than plopping a four-plex development into a single family neighborhood. It doesn't matter that the units are labeled "patio homes," they are nothing but 1,200 sq. ft. four-plexes. And fifteen units is a multi -family development. Please, not in our neighborhood.

No matter how the developer cloaks the application in "residential" terms, in the end these are apartment style and sized, multi- family 4-plex units. These apartment style; 4-plex units are extremely inconsistent with the existing single family residential dwellings in our neighborhood. * As stated in the developer's own application for zone change, these dwellings would be under 1200 square feet of heated space, as measured by FOUR OUTSIDE walls. This developer's statement is very misleading and contradictory to the attached plat map submitted along with the application. As demonstrated in the plat map, each space of 1200 sq ft of heated space is actually attached by INTERIOR walls, there are NOT FOUR OUTSIDE walls to each 1200 square feet of heated space. Therefore, the developer's description is inaccurate. The submitted plat map clearly demonstrates apartment/multi-family 4-plex units. * Carter Lane is a narrow, dead end -street with no intersecting streets, nor turn around access. It is not the responsibility of the residents to provide turn around access for these trapped vehicles. Larger vehicles MUST back all the way out. Due to the construction currently underway at Carter Oaks, this has already been a huge problem on Carter Lane. * Originally, Carter Lane was built by a private individual and not by the city, it is questionable if the depth/thickness of the asphalt of Carter Lane is up to city code for a standard city street? This might explain the poor condition of Carter Lane? In addition, the thinly paved asphalt on Carter Lane is too narrow for the safe flow of heavy two way traffic. * Carter Lane is currently a narrow lane that is not safe for heavy two-way traffic, as one vehicle must pull to the side to allow the other to pass safely. Currently, neighbors yield to each other on the street. Increased traffic would serve only to exacerbate the difficulties vehicles, including emergency response vehicles have reaching the homes at the end of Carter Ln. * In the summer of 2012, during the wild fire that raged between Rahling Road and Carter Lane, many residents on Carter Lane were trapped in their homes, due to the narrow road being blocked by fire and rescue trucks. When the fire department was called to another location, Carter Lane, being so narrow, forced 3 of the 4 fire trucks to back all the way down Carter Lane to Taylor Loop Rd. One of the fire trucks was further delayed, while attempting the arduous task of turning around, the truck became wedged between two private driveways. Ultimately, the fire truck struck a fence. Every week, the city garbage trucks used to service Carter Lane do the same; backing up ALL the way down Carter Lane until they reach Taylor Loop Rd. Page 2 of 2 * Carter Lane vacant land price is being driven up by the multifamily housing developers, whereas the recent agreement by single family resident was denied by the seller (who does not live in Little Rock) in favor of the Carter Oaks proposal in favor of the multifamily developer's current option. At issue is the multifamily developer affords a higher threshold of land cost divided by (in the example of carter Oaks) 18 residences. Carter Lane and surrounding residents express concern that while the recent real estate adjustment made every attempt to raise values of the homes on and near Carter Lane, the value of these existing homes are being undermined in value as the city turns Carter Lane into Multi -Family Housing Projects. Will there be an immediate tax credit issued for the current homeowners? • Carter Lane residents are also aware that in the charting of LaMarche Drive which runs west and parallel to Carter Lane, the city requires any developer to build the street with curb, gutter, and sidewalk from existing city standard streets to the new development. Carter Lane residents request the same standard apply to the aging and decaying lane named Carter requiring the Carter Oaks developer to abide by the same resolution as with LaMarche. The Carter Oaks Developers; as in other areas of the city, should be required to build a city standard street from Taylor Loop to the Carter Oaks Development of connected apartment style housing. * Carter Lane, lacks sufficient curbing, drainage, lighting, and sidewalks, putting increased numbers of residents and children at risk on this narrow street. Simply put, Carter Lane can not safely facilitate heavier traffic what is the city prepared to do about it? * If the re -zoning is granted, what is the city re ared to do in order to bring Carter Lane up to city street standard of asphalt width and depth, gutters, sidewalks, drainage, and lighting? What is the cityprep__ared to do about no sidewalk for our children who must walk in the narrow street to the neighborhood elementary school? * What is the city prMared to do to accommodate the large vehicles including emergency response vehicles and construction trucks needing a place to tam around on Carter Lane? * What is the city_Wenared to do as far as tax credits to current homeowners on Carter Lane and surrounding neighborhoods affected by undermined land values? Carter Lane is a narrow, poorly constructed street, designed and zoned to accommodate a few single family residences. Changing that plan; to drop kick multi -family housing in the midst of our planned, single family residential neighborhood would be a total disregard to the existing residents in and near Carter Lane, who bought in to the original plan and zoning. Over development on an underdeveloped road presents safety risks for children and residents. What is the cityprepared to do to keep the children and all residents safe? I OPPOSE rezoning to any area of Carter Lane. Please respect the original single family - residential zoning of our neighborhood.

Carter Lane is a charming little street out in West Little Rock off Taylor Loop. The original development of this street consisted of large estate sized lots. When we came here in 2007, that was the case, and that was the tipping point for us. It was lovely and quiet, the street was a dead end and there didn't seem to be this kind of development on the horizon. We strongly object to the type of buildings proposed; it completely changes the setting, and completely changes property values on this small street. Our privacy will be lost, our street will become busy and the charm of this area will be gone forever. We strongly urge you to vote against the re -zoning of Carter Lane. Yours truly, Larry A. Tarvin Maurine Tarvin John and Karen DiPippa 1 Deming Place Little Rock AR 72223 October 19, 2012 Little Rock Planning Commission Little Rock Planning Staff % Donna James 723 West Markham St. Little Rock AR 72201 RE: Proposed Valley Oaks Addition Ladies and Gentlemen: This letter reflects our opposition to the proposed re -zoning application and subsequent 15 lot subdivision for the Valley Oak addition on Carter Lane. The neighborhood strongly opposes this re -zoning for two main reasons. 1) Carter Lane was not designed to handle large incoming traffic flow. In fact, it is a narrow, short dead end street without curbs and gutters. 2) Row homes or patio homes do not reflect the nature of this neighborhood. In addition to traffic, this development would also add to light pollution. noise pollution and the destruction of the natural habitat of the area. There are other areas which are better suited for condensed housing. Valley Oak is not compatible with the design or utility of this neighborhood. Please do not allow for rezoning in our neighborhood.

Application Mrs James, Please accept this letter to serve as our application for the above referenced project. We wish to be placed on the October 25th Planning Commission meeting agenda. This single family development will feature 15 common wall patio homes. Their proposed square footage will be approximately 1,300 SF to 1,400 SF. There will also be room towards the rear of the homes for additional square footage. We are proposing a right-of-way width of 45 feet and a standard residential road width of 26 feet for the development. The requested front, rear and side setbacks are shown on the Preliminary Plat. Though the property is mostly clear of trees, we would like to request permission to clear the entire site so the lots may be graded during road construction. Allowing this preliminary grading will prevent damage to the newly paved streets. I have included a Bill of Assurance for this development and will be providing a survey of the property within three weeks of this application. Please feel free to call me with questions. Sincerely, Thomas R. Pownall, P.E. Project Engineer. This Instrument Prepared By. Don A.

MEMORANDUM TO: DONNA JAMES, SUBDIVISION ADMINISTRATOR FROM: CHRISTY MARVEL, PLANS DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATOR SUBJECT: REVIEW OF THE BUFFER AND LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS OF THE OCTOBER 25th PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA CC: DANA CARNEY, ZONING & SUBDIVISION MANAGER DATE: October 1, 2012 LD BUSINESS: 4. Knollwood Mobile Home Park Z-2123-A Site plan must comply with the cities minimal landscape and buffer ordinance requirements. Site plan and landscape plan must comply with the Midtowne Overlay District Requirements. It appears an additional two feet (2') can be gained along the southern property line by merely adjusting the parking lot aisle widths to a twenty foot (20') depth and a twenty foot (20') aisle. This would allow additional green space along this southern most property line. An automatic irrigation system to water landscaped areas will be required. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, it will be necessary to provide an approved landscape plan stamped with the seal of a Registered Landscape Architect. The City Beautiful Commission recommends preserving as many existing trees as feasible on this site. Credit toward fulfilling Landscape Ordinance requirements can be given when preserving trees of six (6) inch caliper or larger. 4. Knollwood Mobile I]ome Park Z-3619-C1 Site plan must comply with the cities minimal landscape and buffer ordinance requirements. Any additional parking must be landscaped in accordance to Chapter 15 of the Landscape Ordinance, City of Little Rock. It will require additional review and approval from the Planning Department. 7. Bennett Short form PDR L-8809 Site plan must comply with the cities minimal landscape and buffer ordinance requirements. Any additional parking must be landscaped in accordance to Chapter 15 of the Landscape Ordinance, City of Little Rock. It will require additional review and approval from the Planning Department. If rehabilitation of the structure exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the replacement cost of the structure additional green space and landscaping will be required. This may include the removal of some on site paving/asphalt. Frazier-Bankhead [G-8810 Site plan must comply with the cities minimal landscape and buffer ordinance requirements. The landscape and buffer ordinance require a nine foot (9') wide landscape strip around the sites entirety. This amount is required after all right-of-way dedication. Currently, the area along the southern perimeter doesn't appear to meet these two city minimal ordinance requirements. The property to the east is zoned residential, therefore, a six (6) foot high opaque screen, either a wooden fence with its face side directed outward, a wall, or dense evergreen plantings, is required along the eastern perimeter of the site. Eight percent (8%) of the vehicular use area must be designated for green space; this green space needs to be evenly distributed throughout the parking area(s). The City Beautiful Commission recommends preserving as many existing trees as feasible on this site. Credit toward fulfilling Landscape Ordinance requirements can be given when preserving trees of six (6) inch caliper or larger.
