Key Shop SOUTHEAST CORNER OF HINSON & HINSON LOOP ROADS LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS Applicant respectfully submits the attached property along with the site plan for a P.C.D. (Planned Commercial District) classification and use as outlined by the appropriate ordinance established by the City of Little Rock. The parcel subject to the P.C.D. request is a 2.69 acre site, and meets the criteria for building, parking, and design following P.C.D. quidelines. Present zoning is 110-3." The site is situated on Hinson and Hinson Loop Roads having 200 feet frontage along Hinson with 424 feet frontage along Hinson Loop. The primary purpose for developing the site as a P.C.D. is due to the unique location of the site, being situated between office, commercial and apartment zonings. Flake and Company acting as developers for the owners, Hinson Loop Partnership, intend to maintain these zoning relationships under the P.C.D. ordinance. The site is a combination of two smaller tracts under one ownership. The f ront Hinson road tract is 160.7 x 200.7 or 32,252 square feet. The back Hinson Loop tract is 264 x 321.5 or 84,876 square feet. The owner requests the two tracts be kept separate in regard to platting, however, the owner requests the tracts be coordinated through cross -easements and points of ingress and egress as indicated on the attached plans. There are three primary reasons for maintaining a separate identity to the two tracts: 1); to permit future sale of either tract allowing for economic flexibility; 2); to maintain the office environment along Hinson Road while upgrading development along Hinson Loop Road, utilizing a mixture of office -retail use; 3); allowing for two phase development of the site. Phase one would entail the development of the larger Hinson Loop tract as a combination office- retail center emphasizing a strong French traditional architectural design. The "L" shaped structure will consist of 21,400 square feet with bays varying in size from 1,000 to 1,900 square fee. Construction materials will consist of metal stud framing, s -2- exterior walls, bay windows with slopped standing seam metal roofs, French style entry doors and windows. There will be special emphasis placed on the pedestrian areas, walkways, entrances and landscaping ❑f a very high quality and design (colored canvas awnings, textured and patterned walks, traditional lantern style pole lighting, dense ground cover and landscaping). Phase two would encompass the smaller Hinson Road tract as a single office building development. Architectural design would be coordinated and compliment the Phase one design. This building pad will be 7,150 square feet. It is the plan of the developer to construct both phases of the development within the prescribed time as stated in the P.C.D. ordinance, otherwise the owner -developer recognizes that a period of extension must be approved by the planning commission and City Board. Uses for the P.C.D. have been extracted from a combination of office classifications (0-1 thru 0-3) and Commercial classifications (C-1 thru C-3). The applicant requests a 600 retail to 400 office usage. (See attached list of proposed uses). The gross square footage of the proposed 2.69 acre P.C.D. development is 28,550 square feet with 130 parking spaces; 17,130 square feet retail, 11,420 square feet office.

The number of proposed curb cuts on Hinson Loop (3) is excessive for this development. Recommended a maximum of two, including one common to the Lot 1 - Lot 2 boundary, with a corresponding common access drive internal. 2. The service drives should be a minimum of 20' wide, with negotiable curve radii. 3. Master Street Plan requirements: a. Hinson Loop - 60' right-of-way, 36' curb and gutter improvements. b. Hinson Road - 90' right-of-way, 60' curb and gutter improvements. (note - Hinson Road will be improved to these standards in 1989 as a Bond Issue project. The developer should contribute the ROW and the estimated cost of his improvements on Hinson, in lieu of actual construction). 4. Provision of on -site detention will be required. 5. The excavation ordinance will apply. Townley Williams Blair 424 Architects, Inc.

We have met all but one of the City's recommendations regarding the City's engineering concerns. We feel that three curb cuts along Hinson Loop are not excessive considering the following: 1. Excessive frontage on Hinson Loop Road (427 feet). 2. The developers agreement to improve and widen Hinson Loop road as discussed. 3. Changing the service entrance from a two-way to one-way access. 4. Two shared access points for Phase I and II. 5. Orderly flow of traffic within the development which allows for smoother access to and from Hinson and Hinson Loop Roads. We will be happy to work with Jerry Gardener to resolve this one problem. Thank you for your consideration.

Key Shop January 3, 1989 Item -No. C (Continued) PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (January 3, 1989) Richard Wood of the Planning Staff presented the application and offered the Staff recommendation. Mr. Gary Greeson then offered an overview of the neighborhood and the effects of this proposal on adjacent properties. Mr. Pat Morrison, the applicant, was present. Mr. Morrison presented the application offering the amendments that had been made. He discussed the buffering effects upon adjacent properties. He indicated that the proposal is drafted as a mixed -us ,e project with no objectionable uses. Mr. Morrison read from the text of the ordinance the development intent of the PCD process. He discussed the mix of uses in the adjacent neighborhood and the appropriateness of this PCD on this site. He said that he felt that the neighborhood supported the mix of use in this proposal and the concept. He commented on the traffic generation being no greater than an office use on this property of multi -floors. Mr. Morrison pointed out that neighborhood residents on the north had indicated that they did not like access on to Hinson Road due to possible conflict with an intersection into their subdivision. He further expressed his feelings on the relationship of this proposal to the Adopted Neighborhood Plan. His thoughts were that this proposal was compatible and, in fact, overrides the plan and is appropriate to the site. Commissioner Nicholson then questioned Mr. Morrison as to the appropriateness of the use mix of 60/40, 70/30, etc. Mr. Morrison expressed the thought that 60/40 mix was a minimum in order to make this project work. Commissioner Collins then questioned Mr. Morrison concerning a letter he had mentioned from the neighbors with a response on this project. Mr. Morrison indicated that he did not wish to present the letter inasmuch as it had not been signed by the neighborhood and further indicated that the project apparently did not meet all of their needs, especially with respect to access on to Hinson Road. Commissioner Schlereth then introduced questions concerning the mix by building and the potential for the mix not meeting the 60/40 in the primary building on Phase I. Mr. Morrison outlined the uses per building and indicated that there would be less than 40% office in that structure. Further discussion of the matter between Gary Greeson and several Commissioners and Mr. Morrison reflect that somewhat over 20% of the building in Phase I would consist of office. January 3, 1989 Item No.__C (Continued) Commissioner Oleson then asked Mr. Morrison about the status of the single family property on the tract to the east. Mr. Morrison reported that attempts had been made to acquire the property but that the current owner would probably give this property to her church. Commissioner Nicholson then asked that Mr. Morrison identify the uses in the area adjacent to this proposal. Mr. Morrison identified the area as being one of transitional uses. He identified Foxrun Apartments lying generally on the east and south, single family uses in Pleasant Valley to the north, some vacant properties immediately to the west and several nonconforming or commercial zoned properties to the southwest. He specifically pointed out the existing PCD project on the west side of Hinson Loop Road. The question of objection and whether there were objectors in attendance was addressed. There were several persons present; no names were offered for the record. Mr. Jerry Gardner of the Public Works Department then addressed the site plan as amended. He discussed the Master Street Plan requirements as to Hinson Road and Hinson Loop Road. He also addressed the circulation within the drive-in facility for the proposed financial institution. Mr. Morrison then stated that the office use on the Hinson frontage of the property would not necessarily be a bank. He stated it could be some other office activity. Commissioner Perkins and Mr. Gardner discussed the right-of- way needs on Hinson Road relative to this property. The right-of-way was identified as having been established on the site plan and survey. Mr. Morrison indicated that improvement on the boundary street would not be a problem. Commissioner Oleson asked the Planning Staff to confirm its recommendation. Gary Greeson restated the Planning Staff position. Mr. Morrison then presented arguments concerning the Land Use Plan for this neighborhood. He indicated that the current mandate was outdated, the establishment of office only west of Green Mountain is a number of years old and should be reviewed. January 3, 1989 Item No. C (Continued) Commissioner Oleson then asked how many objectors were in attendance. There were two persons identified. They indicated they lived in the area of Windy Lane and Pleasant Valley on Valley Club Circle. It was further pointed out that there were six to eight persons present at the neighborhood meeting attended by Mr. Gardner and the applicant. At the request of a Commissioner, Gary Greeson presented a larger area map of the neighborhood surrounding this property. Commissioner Miller again raised the issue of acquisition of the property to the east. It was restated again that the property was not available at this time. In response to a question from Commissioner Schlereth, Mr. Morrison indicated thEt he was working with a bank at this time for establishment on the Phase II, or frontage parcel on Hinson Road. He ;paid Phase II will be built as a focal point for the Center. He further stated that the neighbors are aware of the plans fcr a bank. He indicated that he thought the neighbors opposed a four-story office building or large scale development for offices on this site. He felt that makes his project more desirable. Commissioner Perkins then asked about the operating times, as to the hours of day and signage on the premises. Mr. Morrison indicated that there was no plan dealing with operating times as there would be multiple users. Staff indicated that this was something that was not typically regulated or accomplished in connection with a PUD. Robert Brown of the Public Works Department was asked to come forward and address the issue of the allowed signage on the development. Mr. Brown indicated that the use of the business and the buildings would establish the height and type of signs that would be allowed freestanding, as well as the facade signs for the building. A question was then raised by Staff as to whether or not the sign code standards could be modified by the Planning Commission review of this Planned Unit Development. The City Attorney, Mr. Giles, advised the Commission that he felt they could not establish standards less than the ordinance. They could add to that standard. Mr. Morrison addressed the issue of signs by stating that he did not want a large or tall sign on the premises. Commissioner Schlereth then asked of Mr. Morrison if he January 3, 1989 Item No. C (Continued) would accept office standards as the basic sign standards for the project. Mr. Morrison indicated that he would and stated that he would work with the City Staff on the signage. The City Attorney followed this comment with a statement that the City should not restrict the time of operation for this development. He also asked that objectors place their comments in the record. This was not accomplished. Gary Greeson then asked of the Commission that they discuss the plan as it relates to the project prior to their action on the proposal. A general discussion then followed involving many of the ,oints raised above. At the end of this discussion a mot on was made to approve the PCD as filed with a conditic that the signage on the premises to be restricted to off7 c usage. The vote on the motion: 6 ayes, 3 nays, 2 ab:,; r Mr. Greeson then asked c the Chairman that the reasons for approval be stated for t record. These were as follows: 1. This project would i intain the office elements of the project adjacent to he residential uses to the north. 2. The proposal placed the commercial generally against the existing business strip along Hinson Loop Road on the southwest. 3_ The development is not a broad commercial use list and is well mixed with office uses. 4. There is an existing Planned Commercial Development immediately across the street, southeast on Hinson Loop Road. 5. This is a site and use specific plan with the proposal tied to a definite plan. JERxY C HOLTON, M. D. IIBol FAIRWAY DRIVE LITTLE Rocx, ARKANSAS 72212 November 11, 1988 Little Rock City Planning Commission 723 West Markham Little Rock, AR 72205 Dear Sir: It has come to my attention that a plan to rezone city property at Henson Road and Henson Loop Road in;northwest Little Rock is going to be submitted to the City Planning Commission in the near future. The zoning change would apparently change the restrictions on the property from small business to business ventures including shopping centers. The traffic situation on Henson Road, in my opinion, will not tolerate the heavy traffic load generated by such a zoning change and business development. Please accept my letter of opposition to any proposed zoning change of the property at Henson Road and Henson Loop Road in northwest Little Rock. Thank you very much for your consideration. Sincerely, .terry � Holton, M.D. NOV 1 R 1QAR HINSON CORNERS SOUTHEAST CORNER OF HINSON & HINSON LOOP ROADS LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS Applicant respectfully submits the attached property along with the site plan for a P.C.D. ( Planned Commercial District) classification and use as outlined by the appropriate ordinance established by the City of Little Rock. The parcel subject to the P.C.D. request is a two acre tract, and meets the criteria for building, parking, and design following P.C.D. quidelines. Present zoning is 110-3." This tract is situated on Hinson Loop Road having 264 feet frontage along Hinson Loop. In addition to the 2 acre P.C.D. tract, the applicant owns a 3/4 acre tract immediately north and contiguous to the subject tract. The zoning classification of this tract is presently and will remain 0-3. This tract has 208.7 foot frontage along Hinson Road and 168.7 foot frontage on Hinson Loop Road. The owner requests these two tracts be kept separate in regards to development and zoning classifications, however, request the sites be coordinated through cross -easements and points of ingress and egress as indicated on the attached plans. There are two primary reasons for maintaining a separate identity to the two tracts: One; to permit future sale of either tract allowing for economic flexibility; Two; to maintain the office environment along Hinson Road with continuance of the 0-3 zoning while upgrading development along Hinson Loop Road with a P.C.D. development plan utilizing a well -planned mixture of office -retail use. (See Attached Permitted Uses). Uses for the P.C.D. have been extracted from a combination of office classifications (0-1 thru 0-3) and Commercial classifications (C-1 thru C-3). The applicant request a 70% retail to 30% office usage. The gross square footage of the proposed 2 acre P.C.D. development is 21,100 square feet with 94 parking spaces. The applicant's intentions are to maintain the architectural integrity of The Pleasant Valley area by designing a traditional structure utilizing a pitched roof design with the exposed elevations being predominantly brick. Landscaping and signage will follow ordinance requirements. JOINT DEVELOPMENT HINSON CORNERS P.C.D. SOUTHEAST CORNER HINSON & HINSON LOOP ROADS LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS a. Antique Shop b.
