B. Existing Conditions
The area consists of commeoeial and industrial uses. A
Little Rock fire station abuts the property on the
south and the Southwest Hospital site is to the east.
C. Issues/Discussion/Legal/Technical/Design
(1) Discussion of access to Lot 1.
D. Engineering Comments
(1) If Lot 1 requires access across the Southwest
Hospital tract, access must be by platted access
easement.
(2) Stormwater detention and Excavation Ordinance to
be followed.
(3) One driveway opening allowed on Mabelvale West
Road, which is to be approved by Traffic
Engineering.
E. Staff Recommendation
Denial, because of inadequate access, which could lead
to an undesirable subdivision pattern. The applicant
should submit an overall property development plan so
that the proposed access can be considered in relation
to plans for future development.
F. Subdivision Committee Review
The Committee was most concerned about the potential
for additional commercial lots to have access from the
proposed easement; therefore, a proposed layout of how
the lots are to be platted was deemed to be necessary.
