RE: Entergy comments related to Planning and Zoning items for the June 8th Meeting
Ms. James,
Please find below Entergy's comments related to the items received from the Department of Planning
and Development last week. The request letter said to have the comments back to you by May 15th,
2017.
• The Hamilton Apartments — behind 14810 Cantrell Road: Z-7500-F
Entergy does not object to this proposal. There do not appear to be any conflicts with existing
electrical utilities based on the information provided. Power lines exist to the east along Pinnacle
Valley Road and to the south serving existing customers in the area. Contact Entergy in advance
to discuss electrical service requirements, or adjustments to existing facilities (if any) as this
proposal proceeds.
• Lot 2 Chenal Commercial Park —100 Blk of Wellington Hills Rd: Z-4470-I
Entergy requires more information on the location of this proposal. The print provided gave the
block number and a lot number, but no other landmarks to be able to match the location with
Entergy's facilities mapping system. There is the potential that an Entergy Transmission line
borders the property. More specific information relevant to the Transmission line and its
easement may be required.
• The Parks - Planned residential development — Mann Rd: Z-9220
Entergy Distribution does not object to this proposal. A three phase power line exists along the
southern edge of Mann Road on the north side of this property. Single phase, Distribution
power lines are also in the vicinity serving established residential areas to the east and south.
However, the development also involves an existing Entergy Transmission power line and
easement as depicted on the drawing. There are three proposed road crossings and multiple
pedestrian walking trails traversing Transmission easements. Please contact Entergy
Transmission well in advance to discuss the future use of its easements and contact Entergy
Distribution in advance to discuss future service requirements, new Distribution facilities
locations and adjustments to existing Distribution facilities (if any) as this project proceeds.
■ Wisteria Addition Preliminary Plat —David 0 Dodd south of Koen Ln: 5-1794
Entergy does not object to this proposal. There do not appear to be any conflicts with existing
electrical utilities based on the information provided. Power lines exist to the east along the west
side of David O. Dodd Road and to the north along Koen Lane serving existing customers in the
area. Contact Entergy in advance to discuss electrical service requirements, or adjustments to
existing facilities (if any) as this proposal proceeds.

Entergy does not object to this proposal. There do not appear to be any conflicts with existing
electrical utilities based on the information provided. A three phase power line exists to the
south along the north side of Cantrell Road. Caution should be used when constructing a drive
underneath the existing power line to ensure that all proper clearances are maintained. Contact
Entergy in advance to discuss electrical service requirements, or adjustments to existing facilities
(if any) as this proposal proceeds.

any) as this proposal proceeds.
■ Stephens Addition Replat — Lots 2R-A, 2R-B, 2R-C — 7 toll Pine View Place: S-1626-A
Entergy does not object to this proposal. There is an existing underground power line running
between lots 2R-B and 2R-C and an overhead power line on the eastern edge of Lot 2R-C.
These facilities will need to remain in place with their current easements. Contact Entergy in
advance to discuss electrical service requirements, or adjustments to existing facilities (if any) to
serve future residences when this proposal proceeds.
• St. Margaret's Episcopal Church — 20900 Chenal Parkway.: Z-5773-B

from Chenal Parkway on the west to a padmount transformer at the NW corner of the existing
worship center, but it does not appear to be in conflict with the proposed expansion. Contact
Entergy in advance to discuss electrical service requirements, or adjustments to existing facilities
(if any) as this project proceeds.
■ Hyde Park Replat — Madison St between Charles Bussey & West 22nd : 5-1793
Entergy does not object to this proposal. Overhead power lines run along Charles Bussey to the
north and along Madison to the west of this development. An existing underground, three phase,
power line runs from Madison Street to a padmount transformer in the center of the property.
This will need to be removed. The rest of Entergy's facilities do not appear to be in conflict with
the proposed plans. Contact Entergy in advance to discuss future service requirements, new
facilities locations and adjustments to existing facilities (if any) as this project proceeds.
■ Norris Furniture — 3900 John Barrow Rd.: Z-6698-D
Entergy does not object to this proposal. Service is already being provided to this property from
the north of the property via an underground service line to the back of the building. Contact

of the property. Neither appears to be in conflict with the proposed plans. Caution should be
used when constructing a drive underneath the existing power line to ensure that all proper
clearances are maintained. Contact Entergy in advance to discuss future service requirements,
new facilities locations and adjustments to existing facilities (if any) as this project proceeds.
• Markham Center Square Subdiv Site Plan — 9101 West Markham St.: S-1312-A

From: Kathleen Lambert, Sr. Transit Planner
Date: May 12, 2017
Re: Subdivision Reviews, June 8, 2017 hearing
1) Z-7812-B Islamic Center of Little Rock —West PDR- School,149oo Kan is Road
a) Location is not currently served by METRO, but is in our long range plans. We suggest
that the site plan connect the sidewalks from the sreet to the front of building for future
transit service. METRO would expectto serve a facility of this nature with para-transit
serve for students, aged residents and those with disabilities. Any canopies that
overhang the drive aisle must be high enough to serve passengers at the entrance to
the building as required byADA. Verify heights with METRO paratransit vehicle
documentation.
2) S-1312-A Markham Center Square, 91o1 West Markham Street, Subdivision Plan Review
a) Location is served by METRO on route 5 West Markham. The bus stop is located along
the sidewalk adjacent to the entrance curb -cut from the new fast food restaurant drive
through. We are concerned about the amount of cars and car stacking in the area where
pedestrians access the shopping center. We recommend protected pedestrian way
stripping through the parking area for refuge.
3) Z-928 724 Woodrow St, PCD- Container Restaurant and Electric car charging station
a) Location is served by METRO on route 5 West Markham. Stops are located on nearby
7th St. We recommend a protected pedestrian way from the sidewalk to the front of
business.

4) Z-9219 Mickles, PDC — 2904 South Arch Street, Beauty Salon
a) Location is served nearby by route 2 South Main. Metro does not support addition of
surface parking in the residential neighborhood when there is ample on street parking.
5) Z-6698-D Norris Furniture PCD- 390o John Barrow Road
a) Location is served by route 9 West Central/ J. Barrow. The building is located on the
transit route and the stop is nearby at 46th Street. We recommend sidewalk repairs as
needed for access to the transit route.
6) 5-1793 Hyde Park replot of (24) residential lots, Madison St between Charles Bussey
and 22"d St
a) Location is served by METRO on route 16 UALR. We have no objections to the replat of
the residential lots.
7) Z-5773-B St. Margaret Episcopal Church PDR, 20900 Chenal Parkway
a) Location is not currently served by METRO but is on our long range plans. We advise
the site plan include sidewalks for future access to the transit route. METRO would
expectto serve a facility of this nature with pars -transit serve for students, aged
residents and those with disabilities. Any canopies that overhang the drive aisle must
be high enough to serve passengers at the entrance to the building as required by ADA.
Verify heights with METRO paratransit vehicle documentation.
8) 5-1626-A Stephens Addition Replat- Lots 2R-a, 2R-b and 2R-c, 7-11 Pine View Place
a) Location is not currently served by METRO. We have not objections to the replat of
these lots.
9) Z-1412-C 1637 East 15th Street, outdoor seating, bar and parking, PID
a) Location is served by METRO on route 20 Hanger Hill/ College Station. We have no
objection to the plans as shown. Provide sidewalk improvments as needed along transit
route.
10) Z-5o99-G Lots 9B-(E Territory PCD, AR State Highway 10, Cantrell Rd.
M
a) Location is served by METRO on route 25 Roland Express. The location on Chenal has
seen an increase in ridership commuting from downtown to employment in West Little
Rock. The route is in our future long range plans for increased frequency. Connect
sidewalks to building entrances for access to the transit route.
3.3.) 5-1794 Wisteria Addition Preliminary Plat, David O. Dodd Road south of Koen Lane
a) Location is not currently served by METRO but it is in our long range plans. We have no
objections to the preliminary plat. We do recommend minimizing dead end streets
which impacts future service especially paratransit, making the federally mandated
service more expensive.
iz) Z-922o The Parks residential development Mann Rd.
a) Location is served by METRO on route zz. The development of this neighborhood
street grid is important for residents to have access to the transit and paratransit
services. Dead-end "lollipop" streets and disconnected sidewalk networks will impede
resident's access to transit. We recommend along with the neighborhood exits on
Mann Road that Peace Valley Road be improved and provided as an access exit out of
the neighborhood. This will connectthe transit route and provide efficient routing for
paratransit services.
13) Z-447o-1 Chenal Commercial Park, PCD ioo Block of Wellington Hills Rd.
a) Location is not currently served by METRO but is in our long range plans. Please
provide more detail in site plan regarding the pedestrian access to the site.
14) Z-7500 Hamilton Apartments, near 3.4810 Cantrell Rd. PDR
a) The location is served by METRO nearby on route z5 Roland Express. The preliminary
site plan does not show the road, pedestrian connection or in this case connections to
the bike trail along Pinnacle Valley Rd. Please provide more information as to how the
development would integrate to local transportation systems.

Donna, please see below comments for File# Z-9220:
"Centerpoint Energy currently owns and operates two natural gas transmission lines in parallel which run diagonally
through the property from the southwest to the northeast. There is a "transmission line" indicated on the proposed plat,
but it does not indicate if this is a gas, electric, or other type of transmission line. Therefore, please be advised that
Centerpoint Energy requires the existing easement containing the Centerpoint Energy gas transmission lines remain in
place and not be encroached upon."

Subject: Development on Cantrell
Mr. James,
Hope you are well. I am writing you in regards to the apartment development purposed by Mr.Rees. I am a business
man and understand that land in and of itself has little value unless something is done with it. There is a time and a place
for things and this is neither the time or place. I couldn't think of a worse location to put something like that in. The
traffic at this area is very heavy and there has been numerous incidents of flooding as well. The apartment development
is not going to help either of these causes. I am disappointed that the meetings that concern our area are not held in
our area. It is very difficult for people with families to get downtown and have a voice. Mr.Rees is a very influential
person but community has to come before profit. He speculated when he bought the property. Our cor-nmunity is
under no obligation to see he makes a profit. You turned your back on us when you allowed the Murphy station. That
station turned out to be not so bad but if you allow this development you will not be so lucky you can't close your eyes
and hope for the best this project has some huge negatives. Thanks

strongly oppose the development or rezoning of the property to allow for the development of the Hamilton

The number of reasons is beyond the scope of this email but it is important to note, it is totally out of character

Subject: Z-7500-F, The Hamilton Apartments
TO: The Planning Commission
I strongly oppose the change of zoning classification requested by Rees Commercial. The proposed re -zoning
for a 248-unit apartment complex would allow an urban project in a suburban setting.
I attended the July 11 meeting Mr. Rees held at the Fellowship Bible Church. From that meeting, I'm certain
Mr. Rees understands the neighboring communities strongly oppose his proposed dense apartment complex on
a mere 10 acres. I'm also certain that Mr. Rees and his engineers believe they can convince most that they are
doing us a favor - i.e., bring $$$ to the area, improved flooding problem, only minor increase to traffic density,
etc.
I respectfully request that the Commissioners challenge Mr. Rees and his traffic engineer re the negative
effects in traffic along Cantrell Road and Taylor Loop.
The Rees' traffic engineer presentation of current morning/evening gush hour trips at the Cantrell/Taylor Loop
intersection to purported number of trips after the building of the apartments are miniscule and nonsensical.
Also, I request that the Commissioners challenge Mr. Rees and his engineer re floodingldrainage
issues. We've had several signifeant floodings on Pinnacle Valley Road (my home is on the Pinnacle Valley
Court subdivision). I seriously doubt that the proposed "water holding tanks" are sufficient to compensate for
the stripping of 10 acres of dense forest trees.
I trust the Planning Commission will support the current master plan for Highway 10 and reject the change in
zoning requested by Rees Commerical company.

Subject: With Reference to Rezoning Z-750OF
With Reference to Z-7500F
Planning Commissioners:
We are strongly OPPOSED to the application for the proposal of a four story apartment
building behind the Buffalo Wild Wings at Cantrell and Taylor Loop. The zoning in this
area has been for single family homes. Changing this to zoning for multi -family homes
totally changes the immediate neighborhood and every surrounding single family
neighborhood and business in the area!
Rezoning from R2 to MF 18-24 will allow the construction of this huge four story building
which is taller than any other structure in the area. At an north elevation of 60 feet and
south elevation of 50 feet this apartment building will be massive. Subsequently these
apartments will dwarf any single family home in the area. As a result there will a
devaluation of every single family home in the area. Into this huge building, there will be
250 apartments with 442 parking places. The impact on immediate area will significant
and detrimental. With this increase in cars and people in a concentrated area, there will be
an increase in public service and utility demands such as roads, water, sewage etc.
Traffic congestion in this area is already a problem. With the construction of apartments
on Rahling Road, more traffic is already expected along the Taylor Loop to Cantrell
intersection. Rezoning to MF18-24 at this location will only add to the population density
and traffic that already exists in the area. Imagine 442 additional cars in the area! I
suggest that you travel along Cantrell at the Taylor Loop intersection at rush hour in the
morning/evening and with pre and post school traffic to actually see how dense the traffic
can be already. Adding to this traffic creates safety issues for every vehicle that travels in
that corridor. It also is a problem for many businesses in the immediate area. Try to
make a left hand turn into some of the businesses and residential areas where there isn't
a light at the intersection and you take your life into your hands! Every single cyclist who
travels along Pinnacle Valley Road would also be in jeopardy due to the increase in
vehicular traffic along this corridor. Safety is of extreme importance!
Flooding and drainage in this area is also an issue. There has been flooding along
Pinnacle Valley Road twice this year already. There has been flooding and erosion from
Isom Creek into adjacent shopping centers.
Also, there are plenty of rental properties already available in the Little Rock area with
vacancies. The apartments to be built along Rahling Road are only a half mile away from
this proposed development. The infrastructure in this area was designed for single family
homes within a suburban neighborhood as designated in a master plan years ago. There
is no need to change this plan.
I encourage you to vote AGAINST any rezoning of this property from R2 single-family
homes to MF 18-24.

Subject: Proposed apartments near Taylor Loop and Cantrell
My husband and I moved from the county into Little Rock 9 years ago and built at 7 Pinnacle Valley Court. The
neighborhood was zoned as single family and that specifically influenced our choice to become a Little Rock
resident and payer of city property taxes.
I'm opposed to the building of a 4 story apartment complex in my neighborhood. The area is zoned single
family and should remain so. Traffic congestion is already significant and will be amplified with the addition of
this multifamily unit.
There is no need for additional apartments in West Little Rock. According to apartments.com, as of this date,
there are 1,122 available apartments for rent in the City of Little Rock, with approximately 1/3 of those
situated West of 1-430 and North of Chenal Parkway.
I am not against progress. I do feel that individuals should be able to base their making of a significant
investment in our community in the form of building in Little Rock and paying property taxes on a zoning
assignment that will not change.
In essence: Do not allow the building of this apartment building and hold to the original zoning.

Subject: Proposed apartments at Cantrell & Taylor Loop
Please do NOT approve the proposed apartment building at Cantrell and Taylor Loop. I live
close by and this intersection is way too congested as it is. The center turn lanes are a mess
already with all of the strip malls and businesses along this stretch. The Murphy gas station
going up was a mistake. Please do not make things worse. It will be much too dangerous for
the families that live there.

RE: Z-750OF PLEASE OPPOSE!
RE: Z-750OF PLEASE OPPOSE!
Planning Commissioners,
Dear Commission Members:
As an architect, I have great concerns of a development of this type in this location.
The height of the building relative to the neighboring ones, is out of proportion for the area;
The traffic congestion at this intersection, which is a very dangerous one, would become unnavigable;
And the resulting storm water run-off will endanger many homes and business on BOTH sides of
Cantrell Road.
The developer should look at other areas of the City to develop this project, where the building massing is
complementary to the surrounding area, the traffic wouldn't be so negatively impacted, and flooding will not
impact the area.
Specifically, my backyard backs up to the creek just east of Good Earth Nursery. As you are aware, this creek
is major part of the storm water system in west Little Rock. This Creek cannot withstand more runoff to deal
with! My street drains into this creek and, thus, has flooded numerous times. I am not in the 100 year floor
plain but have had water with 10 feet of my house, due to the undersized capacity of the surrounding drainage
systems. Please do not allow any more major development in this area until you remedy the drainage
problems! We are tax paying citizens who need their City provide adequate and acceptable flooding
protection.
THUS
I OPPOSE the application for this proposal of a huge 4 story apartment building behind Buffalo Wild Wings
at Cantrell and Taylor Loop.

Subject: Rezoning Taylor Loop for Apartment Building
Dear Ms. James,
I am writing as a concerned resident of West Little Rock who is opposed to the rezoning of the Taylor Loop
area to build a 4-story apartment building at an already heavily congested intersection. If you, or any member of
this commission, has ever driven in that area during rush hours, you would know that the traffic at that
intersection is already out of hand. And, you are now proposing to increase the traffic by over 440 vehicles. Not
only is the thought of increased traffic reason enough to oppose this, there is also a flooding issue in the Fuller
Hardware shopping center and along Isom Creek. This development would only exacerbate this issue.
The construction alone of a building this size would be detrimental to the local businesses in the area as well.
Surely there is another location that the Commission can rezone that would be more suitable for a project this
size.
I urge you and the Commission to rethink this and before you move forward with anything, you take a serious
look at this area and the undo traffic headaches this project will cause, not only during construction, but also
once completed and the building is at full occupancy.
Thank you for allowing me to voice my concern. This is a very important issue and it needs to be discussed
thoroughly before any decision is made.

I oppose the application for this proposal of a 4 story apartment building behind Buffalo Wild Wings at Cantrell and Taylor
Loop.
This rezoning is contrary to the existing zoning plans. The apartment building would be placed into a residential
neighborhood and would cause a tremendous increase in traffic at this intersection which is already heavily
travelled. The 4 story building would dwarf surrounding homes and businesses.
We are long term residents of the Westchester neighborhood and have been repeatedly disappointed by the continued
development in this area which is contrary to keeping this area as a scenic corridor into Little Rock.

here is proposal to rezone a —10 acre tract north of the Cantrell Road and Taylor Loop Intersection by Rees Commercial
develop a 250 unit apartment complex — referred to as the Hamilton Apartments. The project is being proposed on a
iece of property of 10.75 acres with two four story apartment buildings with a north elevation of 60 feet and southern
levation of 50 feet. I live at 4 Ison Creek Cove in the Pinnacle Valley Court Subdivision, and I am against rezoning the
iroperty from single family unit to multi -family unit to allow the building of the Hamilton Apartments. This is an urban
iroject being proposed for a suburban neighborhood.
here is a Hwy 10 plan developed years ago as a master plan for this area, and we need to stick to it. Why?
"he infrastructure in this area was designed for single family units — both current and future. To change the zoning will
ncrease demands on drainage, roads, and sewage in an area that is already at peak demand. Many owners of the
)roperty adjacent to the proposed development are already experiencing flooding, erosion, and drainage issues. Traffic
)roblems are at an all-time high. It will be very costly to the city to retrofit the additional infrastructure required to
candle the proposed rezoning. Our taxes are high enough already.
)lease vote against rezoning this property parcel from single -family -residential to multi -family -units. No a artments!

Subject: Rezoning application Z-7500-F,
The Hamilton Apartments
Dear Ms. James,
My property, Pinnacle Valley Plaza, borders the subject property on the South Side and fronts
on Cantrell Road at Taylor Loop Road. After reviewing Preliminary Plans #C-102, I have some
Very serious concern regarding the impact on my property should this application be approved.
My concerns are:
1. Drainage.
The elevation of the subject property, which adjoins my property, is approximately 4 feet
higher than the rear of my property. Their filled property is the result of several years of
dumping landfill on the subject property. The drainage area is now an open ditch
containing trees, trash and undergrowth. Drainage is a major concern because the 4 foot
build-up could have a disastrous impact on my property.
Because this application lies in an existing floodway, I am deeply concerned that the
amount of concrete, the raised building site, and the density of the subject building will
force and divert these waters to flood my shopping center.
We have not seen a plan to understand how run off, detention -retention, or permeable
surfaces will function to limit impacts on adjoining properties, or on the flood way.
What method does he propose to control the drainage from the property?
Has the builder submitted drainage details? How will the city insure that proper drainage is
installed to comply with item #16 under Grading and Drainage notes? Who will be
responsible to insure that Item #10 under Grading and Drainage notes will be followed?
2. Screening and Landscape.
What type screening is proposed?
Item #11 refers to the `Landscape Plan'. Is this Plan available for my review?
Were permits obtained for the fill that was placed on the subject property? To my
knowledge, the Contractor has made no effort to meet with the Neighborhood
Association or area Merchants Association to discuss this development. As a property
owner, I had to personally obtain a copy of the Property Plans for the development.
3 Fencing.
There is a wooden fence on my property that borders the subjects' property and hides the
drainage ditch. Does the Developer plan to replace this fence?
4 Density.
What is the maximum density allowed on the subject property? The plans show over 225
apartments contained within one structure. Isn't that too massive for this property which
is adjoined by an over 45 lot housing subdivision, now under construction?
5 Parking.
I am concerned that apartment residents will park overflow automobiles and recreational
vehicles on my property. Have the proper number of apartment parking sites been
allocated and what are the required dimensions of each space?
6 Will there be a study by city traffic engineers as to the impact that increased traffic will
have on the ingress and egress to adjoining properties and merchants?
With the additional potential of 250 families using the North Taylor Loop access to this
giant apartment complex and the 45 individual homes in his connecting housing
development, this will effectively eliminate any left turn into and out of my property.
If the subject application is approved, it will, without question, have an adverse effect on
the surrounding properties; therefore, I am requesting today that the rezoning application
Z-7500-F, the Hamilton Apartments, be denied.
I have served on the Little Rock Planning Commission and I am well aware of your time
involved and of the difficulty in reviewing and processing these applications. Thank you
for your efforts.

I am a resident of the Secluded Hills area and strongly do not want an apartment building to be build behind Walgreens
out on Highway 10, Cantrell. This had been s quiet neighbor hood.. But the traffic on Cantrell has increased so much in
the past year, I can't see adding an apartment house in this area they will increase it that much more.. Increase in traffic
means more traffic to our quiet neighborhood, and more vandalism, I don't want that... Mamie Seamans

Dear Ms. James:
I am writing you this letter on behalf of Ison Creek Development, LLC the developers for the
Village at Ison Creek residential subdivision. We are opposed to the application for the apartments in
Z-7500-F also known as the Hamilton apartments. In short we believe this development is far too
dense for the underlying zoning. We have also reviewed the traffic study by Mr. Ernie Peters and
fundamentally disagree with the assertions of less traffic during the morning and afternoon peak
hours when compared to other uses.
Although we were supportive of the last application for this property we are just as adamantly
opposed to this application. We believed the commercial usage compatible to our development. We
also believe in our experience that commercial traffic is widely dispersed over the working
daytime. Apartment traffic is more concentrated, in our opinion, to the peak hours of morning and
afternoon. This development would put far too much traffic from a very dense location(the
apartments) via the outlet through the shopping center past the dumpster of Buffalo Wild Wings and
to the Taylor Loop intersection at Cantrell Road. I am also very concerned about the safety of
bicyclist and pedestrians.
I am sure the development will indeed by a nice luxury apartment project. It just doesn't belong
on this site crammed in against our residential development. The four stories are definitely
problematic to us as well as the 41 foot buffer would not adequately shield our view or the noise from
the apartments. Too much in one area.
The westernmost tract (4.5 acres) should remain zoned R-2. If you have any questions please
let me know by email or you can call me at 501-416-8986.
Sincerely,
Keith A. Wingfield, CGB, CGP

Please prevent the rezoning of this parcel.
Parcel and land use was previously designated for good reasons and conscientious growth.
This proposed rezoning would be inconsistent with planning desires.
No one but developer will benefit and places burden on surrounding area.

Z-7500F Hamilton Apartments
Dear Commissioners.
Please DENY this application.
Location —gigantic monolithic, 50-60 feet high building stuffed into the highly congested commercial area
at Cantrell and Taylor Loop using a street that wasn't designed for traffic of this volume.
It is also immediately adjacent to a PD-R that is already under development. This PD-R will have about 30
homes and will exit over a newly constructed bridge onto Pinnacle Valley Road and not onto Cantrell at
Taylor Loop.
Size —visualize a structure, War Memorial Stadium for example, that is about 400 feet long, 250 feet wide
and 50+ feet high that is squeezed behind one story businesses. It would dwarf the business along the street
and visually clutter and constrain the landscape. 250 apartments in one building! One would expect that
density in a downtown area not a suburban one, even in a commercial suburban node! R2-single family
limited to 6 units per acre; this proposal has 22 units per acre.
Traffic Congestion —more than 300 cars per day making 2-5 trips in and out of the intersection as well as
along the Cantrell corridor. Safety issues already abound at the traffic signal at Taylor Loop. Imagine what
adding those 300+ cars all going into that one drive/"street" will add to that. Driver frustration levels are
already high.
Zoni —it has been our understanding that undeveloped property along the Highway 10 DOD was to be
designated as single family or transitional except at specific commercial nodes. While this application is
behind a commercial node, it doesn't fit with the other types of residential areas in the immediate area. As
stated above, immediately adjacent to this application a new subdivision is being built that will contain less
than 50 homes. How much quality of life or any sense of privacy will the homes along the boundaries of
this proposal have? Also, as noted above, this subdivision developers have installed a bridge over Isom
Creek so that their traffic will not exit directly onto Cantrell.
Need --according to apartrnents.com there are 1,122 available apartments for rent in the City of Little Rock,
with approximately 1 /3 of those situated West of I-430 and North of Chenal Parkway.
Noting that the Board of Directors recently added a moratorium on large apartment applications in the
Bowman Road area until the City can determine the impact and need for such density. Is that what the City
wants to begin in this area?
As residents of the Westchester neighborhood since 1989 we have been all too aware of the changes
surrounding the Cantrell corridor, especially at Taylor Loop. What was in 1989 an area of town that was
considered "out in the country" now has one of the busiest, most congested intersections in northwest
Little Rock. When we purchased the property to build our home we fully realized that change was going to
come....and it certainly has. What we hope for and expect is for our City (Directors, Commissioners, and
Staff) to allow of an ordered, thoughtful way of balancing the needs and wants of the residents with those of
the developers and businesses that allows for compatible quality of life in nearby residential areas.
We ask that you DENY this application.
Whether you agree with our viewpoint, we thank you for serving Little Rock. It takes many to keep Little
Rock the special city it is.

Re: Z-750OF: The Hamilton Apartments Long -form PD-R
Located Behind 14524 — 14810 Cantrell Road.
Dear Planning Commissioners:
As a resident of the Secluded Hills neighborhood, I am adamantly opposed to the rezoning of the
referenced property to allow for the 4-story apartment complex proposed to be built behind the
shopping centers at Cantrell and Taylor Loop. A few of my concerns are as follows:
1. Rezoning from R-2 single-family ("R-2") and PCD planned commercial development
("PCD") to MF 18-24 multi -family ("MF") totally alters the surrounding area, especially
abutting approved residential developments and businesses alike.
2. Rezoning from R-2 and PCD to MF totally dwarfs the single-family development that has
been approved along the North property line thereby reducing the value of those homes
before they are even built.
3. Rezoning from R-2 and PCD to MF increases the density of that property from up to 6
units per acre to 22 units per acre.
4. An apartment building of this size, or any building of this size for that matter, is totally
out of character and design for this area. The closest 4-story buildings are the Centre at
10 (12921 Cantrell Road) and Family Life Buildings (Ranch Drive and Cantrell). Both
of these buildings are situated directly on Cantrell and better in tune with their
surrounding like structures and developments.
5. Pursuant to the Proposal it seems there are evidentially serious issues regarding the
floodway.
6. Traffic turning into or out of the proposed apartment complex will cause increased traffic
congestion and safety issues on the stretch of Cantrell from the entrance of Westbury to
Taylor Loop, and most likely beyond.
7. Traffic congestion at the intersection of Taylor Loop and Cantrell is already a big issue
many times a day, including but not limited to, when schools are in session, during rush
hours, and during dinner hours. At times it is a virtual standoff in the turn lane between
5474568.1
Little Rock Planning and Development Commission
June 7, 2017
people trying to turn into existing shopping centers and the neighborhoods and onto
Taylor Loop.
Traffic will have an increased gridlock on Cantrell with left turns into the Murphy Gas
Station, the two very busy shopping centers on the North side of Cantrell, the proposed
apartment complex, and add into the equation traffic from the Secluded Hills, Longlea,
Westbury, Westchester and Heatherbrae Subdivisions on the South side of Cantrell.
9. As it is, turning onto Jerry is already a nightmare because of the driveway into the
shopping center (Senor Tequila, Main Cheese, Capers, etc.) across from Jerry being in
the position it is in. And a left turn onto Shepard from virtual raceway, Taylor Loop, is
nearly taking your life into your own hands.
10. Jerry Drive and Shepard Drive are residential streets, not arterial streets, that residents
use for walking and bicycling routes, not just access to their homes. Furthermore, using
Jerry Drive and Shepard Drive as a "relief' route endangers the residents and effectively
lowers the desirability of their homes, i.e. property values, resale, etc.
11. As I read the Proposal, it appears that the existing drive into the shopping center will be
moved to align with Jerry. If this is the case, will a traffic light be installed at that
intersection? If so, this will create a traffic nightmare similar to that at the Pleasant Ridge
Town Center area — too many lights in too short of a distance. If not, it will be a game of
Mexican standoff or chicken.
12. The intent of Highway 10 Design Overlay District ("DOD") was to allow for orderly and
planned development that would keep the beauty and flavor of the countryside as you left
the bustle of the city and transitioned into the suburban areas and country. Unfortunately,
the DOD hasn't lived up to those expectations. Approving this application will only add
to those dwindling expectations.
13. Additionally, according to the Bike Plan of 2011 approved by this very Commission
Cantrell Road, Taylor Loop Road, Pinnacle Valley Road, County Farm Road, Jerry Drive
and Shepard Drive are a part of the Bike Plan as either a bike path, lane or route and
thereby are used regularly by bicyclists. The increased traffic caused by the proposed
apartment complex will cause potential danger to the safety of bicyclists.
14. Finally, according to apartments.com, as of this date, there are 1,122 available apartments
for rent in the City of Little Rock, with approximately 1/3 of those situated West of I-430
and North of Chenal Parkway. Thereby this questions the real need for another large
apartment complex at this time.
Please take time before making a final decision to spend some time in a parking lot at this
intersection observing the traffic conditions that are currently happening ... the numbers of cars
stacked to turn left onto Taylor Loop and Jerry; the number of cars stacked to turn onto Cantrell
from Taylor Loop and Jerry; the number of cars turning into and out of the three shopping
centers; the number of cars that continue turning left after the lights have turned green for
5474568.1

oncoming traffic. Schools are out for the summer ... it only gets more congested when they
convene in the fall!
While I am all for owners of propertyy being able to develop their land, I do believe .that there, is
better usage of this land. The current zoning of R-2, single family,. and PCD, planned
commercial development, is more than adequate for the property owner to take full advantage of
his investment.
As you consider your vote on this proposed massive apartment building, please think about what
traffic will be in 3, 5 and 10 years. The congestion will only be heavier as the growth of Little
Rock continues to move West. If quality of life issues are important in planning for a vibrant
Little Rock, please DENY this rezoning.
Thank you for your consideration.

We want to express our disapproval of the zoning change on the above referenced property. There are multiple issues
with the rezoning, not just from us, but neighbors as well. The additional develop would only be adding to an already
existing traffic congestion at the intersection of Pinnacle Valley and Cantrell, Taylor Loop and Cantrell and between the
two lights you can not get in and out of the shopping centers already in existence without danger, as well as trying to get
in and out of the Westbury neighborhood which is also between the 2 stop lights. It is a very dangerous area as it stands
today without adding additional problems to the area. There have been several wrecks, We hope there has been a
study of the volume of traffic that already exists, as well as the number of accidents. This corridor is getting even more
dangerous given the new bicycle path being constructed on Pinnacle Valley where large recreational vehicles and trucks
pulling boats, etc. all of whom travel through these intersections. A high density development such as the one
proposed for the re -zoning will only make this situation far worse for the Property Owners and the City of Little Rock
trying to negotiate emergency vehicles, among other things. Also, we feel this rezoning and property proposal would
put way too many people in a concentrated area, especially considering Wingfield Development which is all in the same
are. There is additional concern that there is no protection around the proposed multi -family project that would provide
any security to us that are existing property owners or to the new property owners currently buying lots to build new
homes.
We ask that you please express disapproval of the zoning change.

I travel to other cities extensively and know that other cities have planning that takes the surroundings into account and
really plan for growth --before a building can get approved, years of study goes into the planning process. We have city
planners that are quick to approve new buildings with zoning changes after just a few weeks. While we have city directors
on record saying they are not much for "smart growth." I'm so disappointed that our planners are so quick to approve a

station at this area for this reason. You did it anyway. The traffic has increased dramatically due to this addition. We do
not need any additional misguided decisions. Cantrell Road traffic is a nightmare already. Please use some logical
thought process. If you cannot, please listed to the people that live in the area. No new multi -family housing in this

Z-7500-F Hamilton Apartments
Donna,
I and my neighbors in the Tulley Cove Neighborhood Association are concerned about the impact of such a
large apartment complex as what is proposed by John Rees in file Z-7500-F, known as Hamilton Apartments.
While the land under consideration is in a commercial node and has been previously considered for traditional
commercial uses, this four story apartment building being proposed introduces a much different use.
First, a four story building would be out of character for this area. There are, currently, no structures in the area
taller than two stories. The office building at Sam Peck and Cantrell is, currently, the tallest west of Rodney
Parham and Cantrell Roads. While apartments might be a suitable use of Mr. Rees' land, a four story building
would not be.
Secondly, a complex of the size proposed by Mr. Rees would create an intensity for this area that would be
problematic for traffic at the already troublesome intersection of Taylor Loop and Cantrell Roads.
Additionally, there is concern regarding the impact of drainage in the event such a footprint of building and
parking lot was created. This impacts already problematic draining conditions to the west and on the north side
of Cantrell Road.
Will you send me either the Planning and Development staff s comments on this proposal or the link to that?
Thank you.

opposed to this for many reasons. First, there are already five apartment complexes within a few miles of this area. The
closest, Highland Pointe Apartments, already has 248 units less than one mile away from the proposed location. The
traffic on Hwy 10/Cantrell is a significant problem already, and it will continue to be with more development to this area,
Many people bypass Cantrell Rd by passing through Sam Peck and Pleasant Forest. Of those, many speed through our
neighborhood and make it unsafe for us to walk our pets or have our children play outside. With the addition of families,
this could also burden the local schools. Don Roberts is a highly sought after school, and it was one of our main
considerations when moving to this area. A former neighbor recently told me they cannot honor school choice for that
area as it is currently full with those living in this district. Lastly, development of this and surrounding areas is negatively
impacting the wildlife in this area. We now face an issue of displaced foxes and coyotes looking for food and shelter. It
seems like the city is more interested in protecting the interests of large developers vs the residents of these well -
established neighborhoods. I am unable to make it to the June meeting when this proposal is being discussed. Thank
you for your consideration on this matter.

In addition to the above, the already -difficult left turn out of Rummel would be made more dangerous by the
addition of significant traffic turning left from Cantrell entering 15000, left exiting 15000, and right onto
Cantrell from 15000 from a drive -through restaurant, which is likely to be busiest when rush hour traffic is
already making that a nerve-wracking intersection. That intersection serves a large number of homes that have
no other outlet onto Cantrell. Office would have a much less traffic -intensive impact, especially during rush
hour.

Donna,
I appreciate the info you provided about the proposed restaurant at 15000 Cantrell Road.
My good neighbor, Celia, said it well. We, in Tulley Cove, oppose this proposed rezoning. Again, we are
interested in protecting this area west of the Regions branch for more appropriate development for such a
transition area. What is being proposed would move the zoning of that partial of land from R-2 to PD-C. As
you know from our interactions on the planned surgery center on the lot to the west, we would not object to a
POD rezoning for a less intense office development. This restaurant proposal is an attempt to let the
commercial node at Taylor Loop Road and Cantrell Road creep further west. Such creep will lead to the
decline of the area, much like what we've seen happen on Rodney Parham over the past years.
Additionally, I can think of at least these other reasons to oppose this plan:
• too much traffic
• too much noise
• additional traffic hazards from left turns onto Cantrell from the restaurant
• too much paved parking, adding to the already existing drainage issues affecting Taylor Loop Creek and
our private bridge and street on Tulley Cove
• too much lighting
• too much noisy activity during evening and night hours
Such an intense commercial development would be a nuisance and an eyesore for existing nearby residential
neighborhoods. Therefore, I encourage you to recommend denial of this rezoning request.
Please let me know as you learn more about this proposal. Thank you.

Thank, Donna. That's what I thought, and was afraid of. So if it's basically the same plan but with a "pick up"
window instead of a drive through window, is the thinking that it reduces the traffic issues enough to be
ok? It's still a commercial, high traffic business in an area that has been designated to be suburban office. As
far as Westchester is concerned, it's not an appropriate use for that space. A free-standing restaurant is a heavy
commercial use. Once again it would be jumping over a lesser use zoning and would open up everything to
Rummel Road for commercial uses.
Speaking of west of Regions, what is happening with the surgery/dr office?
We appreciate all your insight.

Hi, Donna!
I received the Planning Commission hearing notice, for a rezoning at 15000 Cantrell Road for a
"restaurant with a pick-up window", yesterday. That plan disturbs me. As we've discussed in
the past, the land in that transition area on Cantrell Road is inappropriate for such a
development.
Can you provide me with additional information on these plans? The description in the notice
makes this restaurant sound like something less than an upscale restaurant. While I think any
type of restaurant is inappropriate for this area, something with a "pick-up window" sounds
particularly bad.
Again, I and my neighbors would find more favor in a plan for an quiet professional office
development on this land, which would be much less intrusive into the neighboring residential
areas.
Thank you for sharing any information you can about this latest proposal.

Ay name is Lee Littleton. I live at 7521 Beck Rd, LR 72223.
am very much opposed to the rezoning of the property related to the subject line of this
,mail.
Fhe Hwy 10 corridor development plan is in place and is a great design with appropriate
ransition from commercial to residential.
Fhe parcel requesting rezoning approval is zoned residential and should stay that way to
naintain the transition from commercial to residential in an orderly way.
there are many other viable sites for a multi -family development that do not require rezoning
ind the developer of this site should seek ownership of an alternate and correctly zoned site
'or a cult -family development.
please consider the current zoning as the zoning of choice and remember that the current
zoning was not created with out great thought and consideration.
really appreciate you reading this email and I urge you and all others of your department to
)ppose this rezoning.
vith kind regards,

This new complex would create so much more traffic in our neighborhood. We like to ride our bikes, go for walks to our friends houses, and

RE: Z-750OF
Planning Commissioners,
I OPPOSE the application for this proposal of a huge 4 story apartment building behind Buffalo Wild
Wings at Cantrell and Taylor Loop.
• Rezoning from R2 single-family to MF 18-24 multi -family totally alters surrounding area,
especially abutting approved residential developments and businesses alike.
• Rezoning from R2 to MF 18-24 totally dwarfs the single-family development that has been
approved along the north property line reducing the value of those homes
■ Rezoning from R2 to MF 18-24 increases the density of that area from up to 6 units per acre to
23 units per acre for this proposal.
• This is a massive single apartment building, not even an apartment complex that tries to fit into
a surrounding residential neighborhood. The size is more comparable and compatible with a
large office building or educational institution. Why is it being crammed into this small area?
• 4 story, 50-60 feet above grade. Nothing in the area is this tall. Will dwarf the surrounding
homes and busineses.
• FLOODING. What about flood plane issues —flooding into the Fuller Hardware shopping center.
Flooding and erosion of property across Isom Creek. Flooding of Pinnacle Valley Road twice this
year already.
• TRAFFIC CONGESTION. Rezoning to MF18-24 at this location will only further increase the
patterns and congestion at Taylor Loop and Cantrell. SAFETY issues!
. Rezoning to MF 18-24 will add significantly to the already frustrating traffic congestion on
Cantrell, especially eastward. Adding 300-400 cars all coming and going from this one location
will greatly exacerbate the situation, especially during peak travel times.
Although the entire area of this application may not fall within the Highway 10 DOD, the intent of
the DOD was to allow for orderly and planned development that would keep the beauty and flavor
of the countryside as you left the bustle of the city and transitioned into the suburban areas and
country. The DOD hasn't lived up to those expectations. Approving this application will only add to
those dwindling expectations. If quality of life issues is important in planning for a vibrant Little
Rock, please DENY this application.

Subject: Oppose Z-7500-F Hamilton Apartments rezoning
Dear Commissioners,
I ask that you deny the rezoning of the Cantrell/Taylor Loop area to permit the Hamilton Apartments to be built.
The traffic situation here is awful and if those apartments are built, it will get a lot worse.
I live in the immediate neighborhood and go through that intersection daily. It is very dangerous now, and
accidents are frequent.
The large Murphy Oil gas station that was built a couple of years ago really made a bad situation worse. The
stretch of Cantrell from Pinnacle Valley Road to Taylor Loop is a nightmare, with cars weaving in and out,
dodging each other in the center turn lane, unable to turn into the existing shopping centers and feeder roads.
When I'm going west on Cantrell, I frequently can't even get into the left turn lane to get onto Taylor Loop,
because it's full. I have to turn right into the Walgreen's/Buffalo Wild Wing's shopping center, turn around, and
then wait at the stop light to go south through the intersection onto Taylor Loop. (After 3:00, 1 don't even
attempt to use Cantrell when I have to go downtown for work. I take Pleasant Forest and Pleasant Valley Blvd -
- that means I'm forced to commute through neighborhoods that were never designed as primary commuting
routes.)
My neighbor, Peggy Wells, has written you a long and very thoughtful letter opposing this rezoning. I endorse
everything she said. I understand that this area of west Little Rock is going to continue to be developed. But the
development needs to be done in accordance with a plan to make sure that the roads as well as other
infrastructure can handle the increased burdens. If it isn't, the city will have endangered the safety of people
who live in and/or commute through this area.
I am sorry that I cannot attend the meeting this afternoon. I hope you will take my opinion into account.
Respectfully yours,

Subject: opposed to Rezoning
I am writing to document my opposition to the proposed rezoning of a parcel of land north of the intersection of West
Cantrell and Taylor Loop (Planning Commission File # Z-7500-F). The land is currently zoned for single-family
residential. The proposal is to rezone the land for multi -family residential to allow for construction of The Hamilton
Apartments, a 250 unit apartment complex. I oppose this rezoning for the reasons listed below. Current Highway 10
Plan — The Highway 10 Corridor plan has long documented the zoning for this land as single-family residential. The
land is well suited for single family residential development, it is not well suited for a high density, multi -family
apartment complex (see reasons documented in the following sections below). Construction of the proposed
apartments would result in abandonment of a long standing and well thought out plan, in favor of non -planned
development. Additionally, rezoning would reduce the availability of single-family residential development areas in a
highly desirable location. As an example, The Village at Ison Creek is currently being developed for single-family
residential on the property next to the property documented in Z-7500-F. Let's use the land in a manner that is part
of a plan and not make up piecemeal changes on the fly. Traffic — I drive through the intersection of Cantrell and
Taylor loop multiple times daily. Traffic is already a nightmare along this section of Cantrell, especially during
morning and afternoon rush hours. Adding the traffic from 250 households to the already overloaded intersection will
negatively impact traffic flow and increase the risk of more accidents. This is already a dangerous intersection.
Infrastructure — Assuming that the water, sewage, drainage, and roadway systems for the Cantrell corridor were
designed according to a plan, that plan would be the Highway 10 Corridor plan. That plan would be based on the
land in question being used for single-family residential. The impact of adding 250 households to the surrounding
water and sewage systems could result in the need to retrofit those systems to handle the additional, unplanned
load. Typically, these types of retrofits are not addressed until after a critical problem develops and has to be
addressed in an expedited (and expensive) manner. As for drainage, there are already flooding problems in the area
of the proposed construction and the neighboring Ison Creek and Pinnacle Valley Road areas. Covering the land
which is currently dirt and vegetation with concrete will only increase those problems. Retrofits are very expensive.
Un In Summary — Rees Commercial has stated that the Hamilton Apartments are "progress," and we all should be in
favor of "progress." I am in favor of "progress," but just throwing up an apartment complex in an area where one
does not belong does not fit my definition of "progress." My definition of "progress" includes developing something
that is in harmony with the existing environment, that does not negatively impact the existing environment, and that
fits in with a documented plan. The proposed rezoning in Z-7500-F is not "progress." I urge you to vote against
rezoning this property parcel from single-family residential to multi -family residential units.

Subject: zoning laws
It wold seem to me that the issue of rezoning causes such a large impact on so many people in the City, that it
should become a political issue and be addressed in the next elections.
It seems like we have "fake" zoning now.
Neighborhood opinions are important and don't seem to be heard by elected officials.
In my opinion, the zoning laws should be revised so that it is extremely difficult to change them because so
much infrastructure and especially citizen's plans are based on the existing zoning.

6. Single family housing neighborhoods in close proximity to the site were built while the current zoning was
in place, and have counted on the integrity of the Hwy 10 Corridor plan in deciding to make a home in the
area. Rezoning is a slap in the face to those who made decisions about where they live and trusted that zoning
actually means something.
5. There is nothing wrong with apartments or people who reside in them, but they typically aren't there long
term. Single family home neighborhoods by nature provide longer term stability in an area because residents
are invested for a much longer term. I don't think this can be disputed in a legitimate way. A complex of this
scale is a negative pressure on the area.
4. The owner of the property has been forthright that he bought this property for too much as it is currently
zoned. Was the assumption that he could roll the zoning commission? This would be a ridiculous argument to
have it rezoned, but it is one of his arguments.
3. The owner of the property may have decent intentions, but this is an investment property. If this is a first
venture into this type of property for him, what are the chances he wants out and sells? He could sell to
anybody, who likely will not have the same regard for the area. A reasonable person could suspect the plan is
to build the complex to sell it. Nothing wrong with that in a business sense, except that he is lobbying for a
zoning change that will negatively affect residents in the area in the ways below.
2. There is already existing traffic congestion in the area. The owner claims there is negligible impact based
on an average flow out of the complex. This is misleading, since the outlet from the complex is through a traffic
light, which will release surges of traffic into an already congested area that has three traffic lights in a '/ - 113
mile section. Another section of Hwy 10 like the Pleasant Ridge section will result. Would it be a negligible
impact on traffic if something like this was built across from Pleasant Ridge shopping center? Of course not,
and it isn't negligible at the proposed site, either.
1. There are already existing problems with drainage. This is not an imaginary problem. The owner
makes claims of retention provisions to address drainage, but there is no way his claimed provisions can
prevent increased drainage problems for residents in the area of the property. What are the
ramifications to the owner when this happens? Can he be sued because he was wrong? I assume the
answer is no, and the problems this creates will fall on the backs of us who are asking you to stop this.
Please seriously consider the genuine issues for the residents around this proposed zoning change.
Sincerely,
Lee Majors
