C. Fngineerinq Comments
Street improvements along Chicot Road to collector
street standard.
D. Analvsis
The proposal presents no issue of consequence. The
effect of the lot changes will be minimal inasmuch as
the neighborhood is now zoned "C-3" or multifamily
along Chicot Road. There exists commercial development
across Chicot to the west along the frontage road and
apartment development along Chicot Road running north
to the Mabelvale Pike intersection.
E. Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the plat modification
subject to the street improvement requirement plus some
attention to buffer or screening treatment of the north
property line adjacent to the apartment complex.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE: (12-29-86)
The applicant outlined the proposal as a cleanup action on
the apartment Aroject and continued marketing of the land.
The only unresolved issue was a concern by staff for some
type of buffer or screening of the apartment site to the
north. Staff suggested that the standard in the
Subdivision Ordinance for office commercial plats be
-utilized without a intrusion of o -street parking.
Mr. Chambers of the Mehlburqer Firm indicated that he would
talk to the purchaser and/or developer and report on a
treatment p an at the meeting on January 13.
Water: The Little Rock Water Works has requested an
easement of an existing 8" waterline within Tract E occupied
by the apartment complex and owned by the Water Works.
