NAME: Jeff and Tracy Thompson request
LOCATION: 12602 Brown Road, Little Rock,
Arkansas 72206
REQUEST: Waiver of all subdivision
regulations
STAFF REPORT:
....... .... .... _ .
This request was prompted by a recent denial of water
service due to illegal subdivision of the land.
The Applicants have submitted the following history of
events. Approximately ten years ago, Mr. Thompson and his
brother jointly purchased a one acre tract of land with
frontage on Brown Road, which is outside the City limits.
When his brother built his home in 1983, he was required by
the bank that advanced the construction loan to have the one
acre tract divided in half so that his one-half acre could
be mortgaged. A survey was performed and the one acre tract
was divided in two one-half acre tracts, with each brother
receiving a warranty deed for one-half acre.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Reserved.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW
The Commission discussed the proposal at length. The
Applicants were told to be present on July 12, 1988. The
issues would go to the City Board for resolution.

Item No. 18 {Continued)
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (July 12, 1 988 )
The Applicants were present. The Commission discussed this
request. The general feeling was that some policy should be
established to deal with similar hardship cases, since more
were expected due to extension of the Extraterritorial
jurisdiction in April.
After some discussion, it was decided that the minimum
waivers that could be granted were the application fees and
subdivision improvements. A one -lot plat with right-of-way
improvement easements was a must or there would be no need
to consider the proposal. Finally, a motion for denial of
the request was made and passed by a vote of: 7 ayes,
0 noes, and 4 absent. It was subject to Staff approving the
plat after the City Board meeting.
