M October 9, 1984 SUBDIVISIONS Item No. 3 NAME: Madden Chapel Short Form "PCD" (Z-4253) LOCATION: AGENT: Kent Whisenhunt, Jr. DEVELOPER: Mr. Sheldon Madden C/o P.O. Box 7488 Little Rock, AR 72217 Phone: 664-0010 9612 Geyer Springs Road ENGINEER: Marlin Engineering Co., Inc. 5318 J.F.K. Blvd. North Little Rock, AR 72116 Phone: 753-1987 AREA: 3.81 acres NO. OF LOTS: 1 FT. NEW STREET: 0 ZONING: "R-2" PROPOSED USES: Funeral Home/Chapel PLANNING DISTRICT: 15 CENSUS TRACT: 41.06 A. Site History The subject site currently contains two structures which have been used as a church and a single family residence. B. Development Objective 1. To provide a much needed service to the Southwest Little Rock residents to provide a development that maintains established neighborhood character. C. Proposal 1. Change and zoning of a 3.5 acre site from "R-2" (single family) to "PCD." 2. The conversion of an existing 5,000 square foot church building to a funeral home/chapel and the continued use of a 1,200 square foot single family residence. October 9, 1984 SUBDIVISIONS Item No. 3 - Continued 3. New construction includes a 35' x 65' addition to the rear of the existing church and sufficient parking to accommodate all cars on site. D. Engineering Comments 1. Dedicate right-of-way on Geyer Springs Road to minor arterial standards. 2. Make in -lieu contribution to the street improvements on Geyer Springs in the amount of $6,870. E. Analysis Staff does not have specific objections to the use of the property. The submitted plan, however, gives no indication of a paved improved area for parking/landscaping. Instead, it shows a gravel drive. At least 25 parking spaces are required. Please submit a plan with a parking area and landscaping. Please provide adequate buffers if abutting areas zoned for residential. F. Staff Recommendation Approval, subject to comments made. G. Subdivision Committee Review The applicant agreed to provide the required parking and submit a revised plan. Since there is an existing structure on -site, it was determined that the only screening/buffer required would be a 6' opaque fence located to screen the activity only. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: Mr. Kemp Whisenhunt represented the applicant. There were no objectors. Staff reported that the applicant had requested that he be allowed to provide a fence on the north and south sides only if these areas are developed as residential. This was discussed, and it was determined that such a condition would be hard to enforce. A motion for approval was made, conditioned upon: (1) the provision of 250' of fence on the north and south sides and (2) restriction of use to funeral home only. The motion passed by a vote of: 9 ayes, 0 noes and 2 absent.
