Albessie recently purchased a house located at 1801 East 38" Street, Lot 54, Granite Heights Subdivision No. 2, to the City of Little Rock, AR 72206. She is in the process of trying to obtain planned zoning development status for two executive's suites. The Pilgrim Rest Missionary Baptist Church Family sincerely supports Albessie and her endeavor. However, she has requested ten parking spaces from the church for use with her business clients. The parking lot in question is approximately 10 feet from the house. As pastor of Pilgrim Rest Missionary Baptist Church, I am granting her permission to use the spaces located in the south end of our church when needed.

L.R. Planning Commission Attn: Donna James am a resident of the area accessed by Pinnacle Valley Rd. I have been distressed by the present buinding of new apartments on this road, near the County line. I now understand that a Mr. Brown is requesting permission to build 40 new apartments in this area. My family and I, strongly oppose this request. The road is already overcrowded with residents, recreational vehicles from two marinas a Corps. of Engineers Park, a Yacht Club, and a new County/City park (Two Rivers Park). The area has grown much too fast, the road is not adequate to handle present traffic. That many new apartments would place an unacceptable amount of pressure on the area, its visitors and residents. It will not only be inconvenient, it will be unsafe -particularly at the Highway 10 intersection. Please record my request to oppose this request. Thank you, Dorn H. Castleberry. 7511 Beck Rd.

The city should not allow any further development on this road without significant improvements to the roadway. I have been a resident on Beck Road for 13 years and travel Pinnacle Valley Road daily. Despite numerous accidents and fatalities, the city has shown no interest in improving this road and recently refused to install a traffic light at Highway 10 and Pinnacle Valley (thank God the county decided to pick up the cost). To allow further development without significant infrastructure improvements would be irresponsible government. Regards, Jim Butenschoen DEC 1 0 2001 BY: 12/11/2001 James, Donna From: KenBcbt@aol.com Sent: Monday, December 10, 2001 10:35 AM To: djames@littlerock.state.ar.us Subject: Pinnacle Valley Road Rezoning am a resident on County Farm Road and also serve as the -Treasurer for the Pinnacle Valley Property Association. It is my understanding that Kelton Brown has applied for rezoning for an additional 40 multifamily units ( adding to the existing 40 units he has under construction.) We did not protest the original 40 units, but I am very opposed to this additional 40 units. This road and it's intersection at Hway 10 is the only access from western Little Rock to the entire Pinnacle Valley area which already includes three parks, two commerial marinas, a soccer field and gymnasium and numereous single family residences. We do not want the congestion and traffic that this additional 40 units will bring. All of the proerty around this site is single family and this tract should stay that way also. If you would like additional information, I my be reached at: Ken Brock 13010 County Farm Rd.

We never saw a rezoning or land use variance posted for the 40 units currently under construction (just before the railroad tracks]. We would have questioned that rezoning application also. I am sure you are aware of the amount of traffic on Pinnacle Valley which heightens to almost unbearable during the summer. Pinnacle Valley Road is the most direct access to Maumelle Park, Little Rock Yacht Marina and now, Two Rivers Park. It is an alternate access for Pinnacle Mountain State. It is also well used by cyclists. Pinnacle Valley Road is a narrow, winding road with a drop off just before the apartments under construction. Many a vehicle has slid off the road either due to a wet street or speed. It is a dangerous road even under the best of circumstances, but adding 80 apartments and the obvious amount of traffic that will be generated doesn't make sense. Currently the street is occupied by nice, single family dwellings, with a new one under construction. This area should stay this way. That is how the original planning was put in place and shouldn't be changed just so a developer can make more money. Kelton Brown purchased the property knowing it was residential or single family. He can build single family homes and still do well financially. Please consider the immediate neighbors as well as those of us who must travel Pinnacle Valley Road every day to go to and from work, school, church, shopping, etc. Please don't make it any worse. Thank you and sincerely, Ron and Sharon Clayton 7521 Beck Road Little Rock, AR 72223 501 8689516 M27 00 12/11/2001 James, Donna From: BH Wooley [bhwooley@arkansas.net] Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2001 10:45 AM To: djames@littlerock.state.ar.us Subject: Kelton Brown Apt. Project Donna James Little Rock Planning Commission Dear Little Rock Planning Commission members, It has come to our attention that Kelton Brown is seeking permission from the City to build 40 additional apartments on Pinnacle Valley Road. Our home is less that two miles from this proposed development. As residents of the Pinnacle Valley area, we are strongley opposed to this request.

Our association has 125 family units and over 200 individual members and the association area lies past the RR tracks crossing Pinnacle Valley Road to the Arkansas River, and includes those residents on Pinnacle Valley, Beck, and County Farms Roads and the two marinas located in the area. I have had a majority of members express opposition to the approval of the planned development as proposed by Kelton and Valerie Brown for 40 apartment units along Pinnacle Valley Road. Among our concerns is the additional traffic in the area, especially since the City does not have funds to widen and improve Pinnacle Valley Road. Our area is primary access --to Pinnacle Mountain State Park, Maumelle Park and Two Rivers Park and the Arkansas River, and the additional multiple family residents would greatly burden the area and the public's ability to have continued use and access to the area parks and the river. Also, City services are going to be even more burden as there is no fire stations between Walton Heights and Chenal to serve the area. Additionally, County police and fire protection will be hampered getting through timely to County residents in the area. Of course, this will also mean a change to the flood plain and additional water will be flowing to the Little Maumelle and create additional flash flooding to the area. I would appreciate you passing these concerns to the Planning Commission Members. If anyone has any questions please feel free to contact me at my work number below.

It is our understanding that in addition to the 40 apartments he is already building, Mr. Brown is asking permission from the city to build 40 more apartments on the west side of Pinnacle Valley Road. Our reasons for this concern include the narrow and heavily traveled road as well as the rural nature of the property. We ask that you carefully consider the impact of such a large project.

Markham Little Rock, AR 72201 RE: Pinnacle Valley Road/Kelton Brown Dear Mrs. James, I am writing in reference to the application by Kelton Brown to construct forty additional apartments on Pinnacle Valley Road. It is my opinion that this area is currently single-family homes and that a multi -family zoning is too dense for that area. The traffic on Pinnacle Valley Road is very heavy and the intersection of Highway 10 and Pinnacle Valley Road is already very dangerous. I am aware there is a stop -light being planned for that area, however, the traffic backup on Pinnacle Valley Road with forty additional apartments would be very detrimental to the current and future property owners. As the listing agent for the new five acre development, Beau Vue Estates which is located on Pinnacle Valley Road, I feel that forty additional apartments added to the forty apartments which are already along Pinnacle Valley Road will be very detrimental to the type of development that is in place and the property values of the people whom are property owners in the entire Pinnacle Valley and surrounding areas.

O. BOX 21214 LITTLE ROCK,. AR 72221-1214 December 17, 2001 Brian Minyard or Vince Hustead Planning and Development 723 West Markham Street Little Rock, AR 72201 Dear Brian or Vince: I just received the notice of a public hearing for a land use change on Pinnacle Valley Road and wish to take this opportunity to respond with my observations. Recently, residents in the area being considered were forced to ante up their own money in order to get a traffic light, for which the City of Little Rock was unable to provide, to make it safe to exit their community. Pulaski County bailed out the residents and effectively the city, buying the much needed light. Now that the immediate crisis has passed, the city is considering increasing the density of the population in that area by changing from the current single-family zoning. Changes for developments contrary to origninal zoning allowed along CantrelllHighway 10, have created traffic nightmares that spill over into adjacent neighborhoods with apparently no consideration for the quality of life for those most affected. When the issue is raised, the convenient response by the City of Little Rock is that there is no money budgeted to solve the problems exascerbated by the city. In our neighborhood, we cannot even get the city to address speeding in excess of 20 m h over the posted lirrdt! Meanwhile, there still exist major needs for traffic lights in that same vicinity, i.e., Sam Peck and Cantrell. If there is no major uprising, or resentment to building apartments in an area not previously zoned for such, then the city should at least obtain some financial commitment from the developers to benefit other needs in close proximity to that area. At what point does the city acknowledge and accept the responsibility to protect the quality of life for residents living in these areas that equals their desire to facillitate development? cerely, Craig ill s Presiden , FPCA EDEC 1 8 2001 BY: THE HATCHER AGENCY "Our Attitude is the Difference" Greg Hatcher Chartered Ltfe Underwriter (CLU) Chartered Financial Consultant (CbFC) Registered Healtb Undennter (RHU) Registered Employee Benefits Consultant (REBO National Association of Securites Dealers (NASD) December 17, 2001 Donna James Planning Commission 723 West Markham Little Rock, AR 72201 Dear Donna, Curtis Bailey Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU) I wanted to write you a note in response to the request to build 40 new apartments on Pinnacle Valley Road in addition to the 40 apartments that have already been built next to the railroad tracks. It would be our wish that no more apartments would be granted as Pinnacle Valley Road has turned in to a very nice location with new homes in the $500,000.00 range being built and an entire subdivision being created that would be devalued quickly with these apartment rentals. In addition, Pinnacle Valley Farms behind these apartments has turned in to an extremely nice area as well, not to mention all of the homeowners who have built some very nice homes in this area.

Our properties in this area are not valued at their actual worth even though our homes are well kept. I am afraid rezoning would further the devaluation. I also feel that allowing one person to come in with a business will open the door for others to do the same. I have lived at 1712 East 38th Street 37 years and have no intention of moving. I would like to keep our area residential.I hope you will consider the implications of rental offices in this particular setting. I have absolutely nothing against Mrs.Thompson and her proposal.I just dont want it done in my neighborhood. Sincerely, Mrs. Rutr Taylor Wat/tscDD u llas - RECCE JAN pp ��2 2002 ! December 29, 2001 #1 Baltimore Drive Little Rock, AR 72206-3610 Mr. Brian Minyard Planning & Development 723 West Markham Street Little Rock, AR 722o1 Dear Mr. Minyard: RE: Rezone of 1801 East 38th Street I am oposed to the above address being rezoned from R-2 to POD to allow for an office use. Tt.does not seems logic that an office (whatever use) would have need to locate in a totally congested residential development.. The footage between each)hbme is limited and asking to homeowners to tolerate a business office between them seems most unfair. Tt seem obvious there will be more incoming/outgoing traffic. A professional or business person having a desire to locatean office in "Granite Mountain" between two residents plus their clientele having to negotiate two railroad crossings to get to their office plus there are no other offices in the area. I oppose the rezone and would appreciate a copy of the owner's PODe T solicit the Commission's disapproval of the rezone. Sincerely, r Desaree C. M uldin
