We wish to make this formal request at the subdivision subcommittee Thursday April 7, 1988. The reason for our request is that we were denied access by the staff April 5, 1988 and wish to request a variance of the distance and location requirements of the ordinance. We respectfully request your help with this matter because we would have a six week delay. Sincerely, THE DAN1 Y THOMAS CCU ANY R. Donald Bailey RDB/rs REALTOR City of Little Rock ;N- Department of Public Works March 31, 1988 Mr. Don Bailey Danny Thomas & Company 212 Center Street Little Rock, AR 72201 701 West Markham Little Rock, Arkansas 72201 371-4800 Re: Bowman Road Access Master Street Plan Requirements Dear Mr. Bailey: Engineering Division This letter is in regard to our discussion during the first week of March concerning your request for access onto Bowman Road from the adjoining property at Markham Park Drive. At that time, Don McChesney, City Engineer and I had some concerns concerning the access with the geometrics of Bowman Road. Also at that time you requested an additional curb cut for the lot facing Bowman Road. We discussed at our meeting that the Master Street Plan allows for only one curb cut every 300 feet on a designated arterial road. I have been searching the files to find any documents that allow for the access point onto Bowman Road which provides access to the interior lot for the major shopping center or store area. I have been unable to find any written documentation that allows this access point. Therefore, due to the geometrics of Bowman Road as well as the Planning Commission and Board of Directors policy for Master Street Plan issues, only one curb cut will be allowed onto Bowman Road from the piece of property discussed earlier. In particular, the access point to the shopping area internal to the development is not allowed at this time. As we discussed, it appears that a right turn in and right turn out lane would be appropiate since the existing Bowman Road does not allow for a left turn lane in this area. Please discuss this with the City Engineer or the Planning Commission to determine the status. With regard to the lot facing Bowman if the access road is allowed into the interior parcel, access from your property should tie into the access road and not onto Bowman Road. If you have any further questions, please contact Don McChesney at 371-4820. Very truly yours, R. Michael Batie, P.E.

Daniel Thomas, Jr. The Danny Thomas Company 400 Centre Place 212 Center Street Little Rock, AR 72201 RE: Proposed site plan and building elevations to be constructed on Lot 10, Markham Commercial Subdivision Dear Danny: I am in receipt of your letter of April 20 and 26, 1988. As you know your project on Tract "A" and Lot 11 was approved by the.Planning Commission on April 19, 1988, contingent on my agreement to take access off your entrance to Tract "A" in lieu of access off Bowman Road. It is unacceptable to me to have our primary entrance off your entrance to Tract "A". It does not work well because of grades and easy egress and ingress. The seller of my lot had obtained permission from the city to have a curb cut on Bowman Road and Markham Park Drive, and I need both for my intended use. This was the reason I bought a corner lot and paid $10/s.f. In my meeting with Don Bailey I told him if he would give me the topo on Tract "A" and Lot 11, I would have Joe White make a site plan that would work for you, the city and me. It appears you are trying to change your subdivision without going through the process. Access to Tract "A" was never intended through Lot 11. As you know, architectural control must meet the rules of reason- ableness, and I can assure you my building will be more attractive and better landscaped than the existing construction, and that I will have no more curb cuts than the other corner lots in this subdivision. Danny, I would be willing to explore the possibility of connecting our parking lots if mutually beneficial and physically possible. Sincerely, Louis E.
