Markham St. Little Rock, AR 72201 Dear Planning and Development Team, `y AEHE 0 $404 BASELINE RD F LITTLE ROCK, AR 72209 R OFFICE: 501-663-0709 a T* FAX: SOI-313-4062 �dM O;y1 I am writing on behalf of Freshly Renewed, a local faith -based nonprofit organization, to formally request a special use permit for the property located at 40 Lakeside Dr., Little Rock, AR 72204. The property is currently zoned as R-2, single-family residential. However, we have recently been made aware that the current occupancy of nine women exceeds the city's definition of a single-family residence under Pulaski County regulations. The women residing at this property live as a family unit. They share meals, attend church, and spend time together, providing mutual support. The only distinction from other family units is that the women are not related by blood, but they do share a common disability. We understand that this variance in occupancy has prompted the need for a special use permit, and we are more than willing to comply with any requirements necessary to obtain the necessary approval. Our request does not involve any physical alterations to the property, nor are we seeking permission to conduct any business or offer services at this location. The property serves exclusively as a residence, and all services provided by our organization take place at our treatment center located at 8404 Baseline Rd., Little Rock, AR 72209. We believe that this home provides a safe and supportive environment for these women, and it has ample space to accommodate them. We are committed to ensuring that the property continues to operate within the guidelines set forth by the city, and we appreciate your consideration of our request. Please do not hesitate to contact me if any additional information is required. We look forward to working with the Department of Planning and Development to ensure that this request is reviewed and processed in a timely manner. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
