Subsection b. The specific waiver required conditions are:
1. Rick Ferguson and Valley Falls Estates, Inc. agree to donate 60 feet of right-of-way for
LaMarche Extension across the Valley Falls Estates Tract and across the Now`��+��6x
Loop Road;
2. The City of Little Rock forever releases Valley Falls Estates, Inc.
construct half street improvements on the Valley Falls Estates Tract;
rrnruu��
3. The City of Little Rock, at its expense and at its sole discretion, agrees to build the LaMarche
Extension from Taylor Loop Road through the North Tract and Valley Falls Estates Tract to its
intersection with LaMarche Drive as presently constructed, subject to items 4 and 5;
33 4. With regard to the North Tract, Rick Ferguson agrees that if he or his successor in title to the

35 LaMarche Extension through the North Tract, then the developer of the North Tract shall, at its
[PAGE 1 OF 2]
I sole expense, build that portion of the half street improvements on the North Tract not then
2 constructed and thereby relieve the City from so doing. It is recognized by all parties that the
3 Developer may seek to negotiate to build some portion of the full street improvements rather than
4 the entire half street;
5
6 5. Assuming that a final plat of Valley Falls Estates submitted to the City of Little Rock
7 complies with all of the City of Little Rock requirements other than the construction of the
8 LaMarche Extension, the City agrees to approve such final plat, even though the LaMarche
9 Extension improvements may not have been constructed by the City of Little Rock at the time of
10 such final plat approval;
11
12 6. Future development to properties adjacent to the new 60 foot right -of -way, excluding the
13 current preliminarily platted Valley Falls Estates will be subject to the requirements found in
14- Section 30, Article VI., Boundary Street Improvements and Right -of -Way Dedications. Since
15 LaMarche Drive is classified as a collector street on the Master Street Plan with a 60 foot right -
16 of -way, no additional right -of -way dedication is required except near the intersection of Taylor
17 Loop Road and LaMarche Drive.
18 Section 2. Severability. In the event any title, section, paragraph, item, sentence, clause, phrase, or
19 word of this ordinance is declared or adjudged to be invalid or unconstitutional, such declaration or
20 adjudication shall not affect the remaining portions of the ordinance which shall remain in full force
21 and effect as if the portion so declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional were not originally a part
22 of the ordinance.
23 Section 3. Repealer. All laws, ordinances, resolutions, or parts of the same that are inconsistent
24 with the provisions of this ordinance are hereby repealed to the extent of such inconsistency.
25 Section 4. This ORDINANCE shall take effect thirty (30) days from and after its passage.
