BACKGROUND: On August 18, 2005, the Little Rock Planning Commission approved a preliminary plat request for this site to allow the subdivision of a 115-acre tract into 227 single-family residential lots averaging 85-feet by 135-feet or 11,475 square feet in area. The applicant indicated a density of 1.97 units per acre consistent with the development pattern in the area. The applicant indicated the development would be constructed in three (3) phases with Blocks 125-126 being constructed in the first phase. The second phase consisted of Blocks 129-130 and Lots 1-22, Block 127 and Lots 14-37, Block 128. The final phase was to consist of Block 131 and Lots 23-74, Block 127 and Lots 1-13, Block 128. August 31, 2017 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: B Cont. FILE NO.: S-867-JJJJJJJJ The request included the placement of an alternative pedestrian circulation system within the subdivision in the form of pedestrian trails through tracts of open space in lieu of sidewalks (Section 31-175). The approval allowed the trail to be constructed of a hard packed surface to allow access to the trails throughout the year. That development did not occur. 0 ;f PROPOSAL/REQUEST/APPLICANT'S STATEMENT - The current request is to allow the development of 116.62-acres with 246 single- family residential lots. The development is indicated in multiple phases occurring over eight (8) phases.

SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: (June 28, 2017) Mr. Tim Daters of White-Daters and Associates was present representing the request. Staff presented an overview of the item stating there were a few outstanding technical issues associated with the request in need of addressing prior to the Commission acting on the request. Staff stated it appeared there were phases proposed with 30 or more lots which were not providing secondary access. Staff requested the preliminary plat include the zoning classifications within the plat boundary and of abutting tracts. Staff also requested the applicant provide the names of owner of unplatted tracts abutting the plat and the names of owner of platted tracts in excess of two and one-half (2 Y2) acres. Public Works comments were addressed. Staff questioned the phase when advanced grading would take place. Staff also questioned the proposed detention for the development. Staff stated there were concerns from residents down -stream which experienced flooding. Staff requested Mr. Daters review the drainage and provide a sketch grading and drainage plan. Staff noted the comments from the various other departments and agencies. Staff suggested the applicant contact the departments or agencies directly with any questions or concerns. There were no more issues for discussion. The Committee then forwarded the item to the full Commission for final action. 9 August 31, 2017 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: B Cont.) FILE NO.: S-867-JJJJJJJJ H. ANALYSIS: The applicant submitted a revised preliminary plat to staff addressing most of the technical issues associated with the request. The applicant has indicated the zoning classification within the plat and the names of owners of abutting tracts and parcels. The request is to allow the subdivision of 116.62-acres with 246 single-family residential lots. The development is indicated in multiple phases occurring over eight (8) phases. The lots are indicated with an average lot size of 80-feet by 130-feet. The plat indicates 25-foot front and rear yard setbacks and the standard side yard setback per the R-2, Single-family Zoning District of ten (10) percent of the lot width not to exceed eight (8) feet. The plat includes several tracts of open space. The areas of open space will be maintained by the property owners association as common green space. The plat also includes an area set aside for a community park. The community park will require approval via a conditional use permit request to the Planning Commission before construction. The plat indicates the construction of an emergency access from Rahling Road to serve the new development and comply with the request of the Fire Department. The secondary access will be constructed as required by the Fire Chief. The applicant states they do not want to build the emergency drive as a street to provide direct access to Rahling Road due to concerns the street will create a cut -through street from Chenal Valley Drive to Pebble Beach. The request includes a variance from the Land Alteration Ordinance to allow grading of future phases with the development of the first phase. Advance grading of Phase 31-1 through 31-5 will occur with the construction of streets and utilities in Phase 31-1. Included along the northern and eastern perimeters the plat includes a 25-foot wide grading buffer with existing vegetation to remain in this area. The applicant is seeking approval of alternative pedestrian paths in -lieu of sidewalks. The Subdivision Ordinance, Section 31-175, outlines the minimum construction requirements for the construction of internalized pedestrian paths when replacing the sidewalk. The ordinance indicates an internalized pedestrian circulation system in the form of paved paths may be substituted for sidewalks along collector and residential streets upon the request of the applicant and the approval of the Planning Commission. 9 August 31, 2017 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: B (Cont.) FILE NO.: S-867-JJJJJJJJ The applicant is requesting several variances from Chapter 29 of City code as part of the application. The applicant is requesting a variance to advance grade Phases 31-2 thru 31-5 with the issuance of the grading permit for Phase 31-1 due to the applicant's desire to balance the cut and fill on site. Staff recommends approval of this variance subject to a preliminary grading and drainage plan being developed for Phases 31-2 thru 31-5 prior to the issuance of the grading permit for Phase 31-1. Secondly, the applicant is requesting a variance for slopes at the south side of the lots in Phase 31-3 to be graded to a 2:1 slope which exceed the maximum 3:1 slope due to the existing angle of the shale plane. Staff recommends approval of the variance for the 2:1 slope. Lastly, the applicant is requesting to exceed the maximum water surface storage elevation in the stormwater detention ponds of four (4) feet due to the applicant's desire to construct detention ponds which can detain stormwater beyond the minimum requirements and to make modifications to the drainage discharge locations within the subdivision to balance the discharge flow from the site to possibly improve some of the existing downstream flooding issues. Staff recommends approval of the variance due to the belief this will lessen some of the historical downstream flooding. Staff is supportive of the applicant's request. The applicant is seeking preliminary plat approval to allow the development of a single-family subdivision with a density of 2.12 units per acre. The plat as indicated complies with the typical development standards of the zoning and subdivision ordinance. The request does include a variance from the Land Alteration Ordinance to allow grading of future phases with the development of the first phase. The applicant indicates this is necessary to balance the site. To staff's knowledge there are no remaining outstanding technical issues associated with the request. I. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the request subject to compliance with the comments and conditions as outlined in paragraphs D, E and F of the agenda staff report. Staff recommends approval of the variance request from the City's Land Alteration Ordinance to allow grading of future phase with the development of the first phase. Staff recommends approval of the variance request to allow the 2:1 slope. Staff recommends approval of the variance request to allow the detention pond to exceed the maximum water surface storage elevation for the stormwater detention ponds. 10 August 31, 2017' SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: B Cont. FILE NO.: S-867-JJJJJJJJ PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (JULY 20, 2017) The applicant was present. There were registered objectors present. Staff presented a recommendation deferral of the item to the August 31, 2017, public hearing. The item was placed on the consent agenda and approved as recommended by staff by a vote of 9 ayes, 0 noes and 2 absent. STAFF UPDATE: The applicant and staff are continuing to discuss traffic calming measure on LaMarche Drive to ensure there is adequate sight stopping distance for the intersection of the new street, Evran Drive, and LaMarche Drive. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (AUGUST 31, 2017) Mr. Tim Daters and Mr. Bill Spivey were present representing the request. There were persons present with cards indicating opposition and neutral to the request. Staff presented the item stating the applicant submitted a letter indicating a desire to work with staff. Staff stated the intersection of Evran Drive and LaMarche Drive did not provide adequate intersection sight distance. Staff stated the intersection was to (shall) be modified to provide safe access for the Chenal Valley Phase 30 and 31 subdivision and the traveling public on LaMarche Drive in a method approved by the Public Works Department. Staff stated no permits, including advance grading permits, for the construction of this subdivision would be issued by staff until the intersection design was approved. Staff stated the applicant's letter stated Deltic Timber Corporation, with their Engineer, White-Daters and Associates, would work with staff to design a safe intersection which Public Works staff could support. Staff presented a recommendation of approval of the requested preliminary plat and the associated variances subject to compliance with the comments and conditions as outlined in paragraphs D, E and F of the agenda staff report. Mr. Tim Daters addressed the Commission stating he and Mr. Spivey had worked with the Madison Valley Neighborhood to resolve a number of their concerns. He stated Deltic had prepared a letter addressed the City which was to become a part of the approved preliminary plat application file. He stated there were nine (9) concerns raised by the residents which Deltic was committed to providing as a part of the approved request: (1) The post development stormwater discharge to the creek west of Madison Valley and east of Carter Lane would not exceed existing discharge for the 25-year rainfall event. (2) The post development stormwater discharge to the three (3) Storm drains which were stubbed out to the south side of Madison Valley would not exceed the existing discharge for the 25-year rain fall event. (3) Post development stormwater 11 August 31, 2017 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: B Cont.) FILE NO.: S-867-JJJJJJJJ discharge to swale across the rear of Lot 70 in the southeast corner of Madison Valley would not exceed the existing discharge for the 25-year rainfall event. (4) A cut off ditch would be constructed to intercept the flow from the proposed fill slope on the rear of Lots 7 — 20 along the north side of Evran Drive and south of Madison Valley. Flow from the cut off ditch would be directed into the existing culvert on the south side of Madison Valley and to the proposed detention area in the behind Lots 20 and 21 on Evran Drive. (5) Deltic will preserve an undisturbed buffer adjacent to the lots in Madison Valley. The width of the buffer will vary from 25 feet to 50 feet. The majority of the buffer will be 50 feet. Deltic will stabilize and plant low maintenance grasses, seedlings, and trees on the slope area to the south of the buffer. The width of the planted buffer will vary from 40 feet to 75 feet. Additional plantings will be used in those areas where the preserved buffer is less than 50 feet. (6) Construction traffic related to the advanced grading and construction of streets and utilities will be along LaMarche Drive, not Taylor Loop Road. (7) Construction activities related to the advanced grading and construction of streets and utilities will not begin prior to 7:30 AM. If weather conditions require equipment to be started prior to 7:30 AM, it shall be minimized as much as possible. (8) No construction will begin on this project until detailed street and drainage plans have been approved by Little Rock Public Works. Deltic has no objection to the detailed plans being shared with any other parties. (9) The gated emergency access from the cul-de-sac on the end of Evran Drive to Brionne Lane will be gated on each end. The Bill of Assurance for Phase 31 may allow the Property Owners Association to install operational motorized gates to allow restricted use of the access to and from Brionne Lane. Mr. Dates stated in addition the Property Owners Association had requested three (3) additional stormwater detention ponds be included on the proposed plat. Mr. Daters stated the location was shown but did not at this point know the size. He stated the size would be determined with final design and review/approval by Public Works. He stated the Property Owners Association would have an opportunity to review the plans prior to the issuance of a grading permit. He stated no trees, shrubs or foliage would be removed in the advanced grading buffer with the exception of crossing the buffer to make connections to the storm drains. He stated the restoration of the slope would take place within one (1) year of the grading activities. He stated the slope plantings would include oaks and maples, planted 50-foot on center in two (2) staggered rows with a minimum of one (1) to one and one-half (1 Y2) inch caliper trees. He stated loblolly pine saplings would be planted ten (10) feet on center on staggered rows and weeping love grass would be hydro -seeded on the slope. He stated in the areas where advanced grading buffer was less than 50 feet an evergreen screen would be placed to include Green Giant Arborvitae's , planted 15-feet on center, five (5) to six (6) feet high staggered in two (2) rows. He indicated the hours of construction activity was limited to the grading activities on the site and not to the individual home construction. Mr. Daters stated a 25-foot undisturbed buffer would be added along the DiPippa property. 12 August 31, 2017 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: B (Cont.) FILE NO.: S-867-JJJJJJJJ Mr. Joseph Perrone addressed the Commission stating he was appreciative of Mr. Daters and Mr. Spivey on behalf of Deltic working with the residents of Madison Valley. He stated he felt they would be a good neighbor. Ms. Sylvia Delso addressed the Commission stating she was thankful for the assistance Mr. Daters and Mr. Spivey had provided to the neighborhood. She stated they had worked with the neighborhood to increase the buffer and to address some of the drainage concerns. She stated the subdivision was also interested in the developer installing the gated entrance from Brionne Lane to allow the resident's access to Rahling Road. She stated the concern was traffic on Taylor Loop Road. She stated with the subdivision an increase of traffic would result. She stated with the gated entrance the new subdivision would have options for access and lessen the impact of traffic on Taylor Loop Road. Mr. John DiPippa addressed the Commission with concerns and in opposition. He stated his home was located on Demming Place at the northwest corner of the proposed development. He stated he was concerned with privacy and the proposed access. He stated he did not speak for his neighbors but felt they too would like the buffer to extend adjacent to their property. He stated he felt the Commission should require the gated entrance from Brionne Lane with the development of the first lots in the subdivision and not leave the entrance to the Property Owners Association. He stated with the only access from LaMarche Drive there would be a great number of cars passing by his home. He stated 250 lots times eight (8) trips per day would result in 2,000 vehicles passing by his home. He stated if the gates was included in the development residents of the subdivision would have an option other than LaMarche Drive. Ms. Karen DiPippa addressed the Commission in opposition of the request. She stated she felt the application should include saving as much of the buffer as possible to cut down on light pollution, noise and erosion. She stated the developer should avoid clear cutting. She stated she felt the gate located at the back of the subdivision would help in reducing traffic adjacent to her home. Mr. Daters stated the buffer would be extended to the east. He stated he was unsure as to how far the buffer could be extended but he would review the grading plans to provide an extended buffer along the northwestern property line. He stated the developer did not want to commit to installing the gate. He stated the gate would be installed in a manner that nothing had to be removed and the gated entrance would be of little cost to the property owners association. He stated there would be funds available to the property owners association to install the gates if the POA desired. 13 August 31, 2017 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: B [Cont. FILE NO.: S-867-JJJJJJJJ There was a general discussion by the Commission concerning the proposed request and drainage in the area. Mr. Daters stated the development would not fix all the drainage problems in the area but would not create any additional drainage problems. He stated the development was providing detention above the City requirement. There was a general discussion by the Commission concerning the placement of the gate at Brionne Lane. Mr. Dates stated the developer was not willing to commit to installation of the gate with the development of the first lots in the subdivision. He stated he felt the gated entrance was a decision the property owners should make and not the developer. He stated the gate would be an added expense to the homeowners and he did not want to place the expense on the POA if the residents did not want the gate. Commissioner Stebbins questioned Brionne Lane and the street classification. Mr. Daters stated the street was not on the Master Street Plan but was constructed to a commercial street standard since the abutting property was zoned multi -family. A motion was made to approve the request as amended and to include all staff recommendations and comments and including the proposed variances to the Land Alteration Ordinance and the Stormwater Detention Ordinance. The motion carried by a vote 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent. 14 SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENTS AUGUST 7, 2019 ITEM NO.: 1.
