Complex Phase II, Site Plan Review 1400 Block Pierce Street ARCHITECT: Townley, Williams, Blair West Edge Building 4 Shackleford Plaza Little Rock, AR 72211 Phone: 224-1900 AREA: 11.31 acres NO.

History of the Site: Phase I of this development which abuts this proposal on the west was built during the early 1970's. Project Characteristics: A. The construction of 34 units on 11.31 acres. B. Development Scheme: (1) Type of No. of Units Units Size of Units A 24 13,584 sq. ft. B 10 10,370 sq. ft. 34 23,904 sq. ft. (2) Parking . . . . . . . 54 spaces May 10, 1983 SUBDIVISIONS Item No. 18 - Continued III. Special Requirements: ("R-5" Zoning Districts) A. Front yard setback of 25 feet. The plan complies. B. Side yard of not less than five feet. The plan complies. C. Rear yard of not less than 25 feet to rear line of building. In the case of a corner lot, where 25 feet would be required on both street frontages, the rear yard relationship which abuts a rear yard may be reduced to 15 feet. This plan does not comply. D. All detached buildings should be separated by a distance of 10 feet. This plan complies. IV. Engineering Comments: None. V. Staff Analysis: The only problem with this plan is its failure to comply with the rear yard requirement of at least 25 feet. This should not be significant in this instance since the plan provides two exterior yards with 35 feet and 60 feet, since it is bounded by a service drive and Pierce Street. Furthermore, this is merely an expansion of an existing development. VI. Staff Recommendation: Approval. VYI. Subdivision Committee Review: The Committee decided to pass this to the Commission without recommendation. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: Mr. Bill Hastings represented the Developer. There were no objectors. A motion for approval was made and passed by a vote of: 8 ayes, 0 noes and 3 absent (absent: Rector, Summerlin, Massie).
