NON-AGENDA: MASTER STREET PLAN DRAFT:
Charles Randel, Metroplan representative, was recognized. He reminded the
membership that after the Master Street Plan had been drafted and accepted
by the City Council, the Priority List of needed street improvements could
be made up and made a separate document apart from booklet accompanying
Master Street Map itself. Mr. Randel recommended an Ordinance accepting
the Master Street Plan would be proper instead of Resolution form .
The City Engineer stated he would get with Metroplan and make needed changes
in aforementioned map and have it forwarded to Planning Commission members
before the next meeting scheduled in February so they would have an oppor-
tunity to review it and make any changes and/or corrections.

Jacksonville Area: Rezone from R-0 to R-3. (For legal, see Minutes of 12-l0-Z9)
Public Hearing was called to order at 8:05p.m. Mr. Geo. Daniels appeared
in behalf of Mrs. Alta Daniels. Secretary Gerren reported the City Council
had voiced some objection to rezoning Highway Commercial C-3 classificatt on
in the area of Shannon Drive. City Eng. Smith stated he had no objections
to rezoning petition as submitted. A Master Map of South Jacksonville area
depicting all rezonings accomplished in the recent past was reviewed.
No one appeared in objection to petitioner's request for rezoning various
properties on the Agenda. Spot zoning on Shannon Drive was discussed.
Comm. Lock moved, seconded by Comm. Betts, to recommend to the City Council
rezoning be accomplished for lots legally described as Lots 51-52 and 60-61 only,

(For legal, see Minutes of 12-10-79)
Public Hearing was called to order at 8:25 p.m. Mr. Doug Wilkinson appeared
to speak in behalf of his development being rezoned. Mr. Wilkinson stated
the 30.55 odd acres in his request was one of the sites being considered by
Jacksonville Housing Authority for placement of 100 unit apartment complex
to be funded by H.U.D. He further explained if rezoning did go through, duplexes,
triplexes, etc., would be built with H.U.D. funds if site was chosen. But if
the site happened to be not chosen by H.U.D. for aforementioned development
and the rezoning went through, he would '-place multifamily housing units instead,
as allowed in an R-3 zone.
Mr. Robert Walker, 211 Northeastern Street, appeared in objection to rezoning
as he stated if rezoning was accomplished it would affect the neighborhood in
an adverse way. He cited heavier traffic on Northeastern Avenue .
Improvements to Northeastern Ave. v1as the next topic of discussion. City
Eng. Smith stated quite a bit more traffic would be generated by said develop-
ment going through even though the lots would not have any driveways facing
Northeastern Ave. with all lots facing away from said street.

With permission from the membership, Chrm. Cavender skipped down published
Agenda to take up above referenced plat submitted by Bond Engineers. Mr.
Bi 11 Owens represented , said firm throughout proceedings.
Chrm. Cavender referred to letters of approval from Fire Chief Schmitt and
Sewer Department; also, to a letter from ~later Commission, signed by Jim
Oskowis, ~·1gr.-Eng. ~1r. Owens stated he would comply with recommendation of
Water Dept. as so stated in aforementioned letter, insofar as the placement
of a fire hydrant was concerned. Mr. Owens said the placement of said hydrant
as so outlined on preliminary plans had been a drafting error only. City
Eng. Smith then questioned the reason for changing original sketch plat
as presented to commission at an earlier date. Said plat as submitted
earlier was different insofar as geometry of layout.

At the suggestion of the city engineer, ~1r. Owens agreed to change word-
ing on plat to include ''Phase I". ~1embership next discussed the feas-
ibility of installing a gravel turn-around at Lot #91 for the motoring
public's convenience. City Eng. Smith recommended the dead-end be left
as planned by the developer's engineer. Comm. Hooley moved, seconded
by Comm. Betts, to approve Tara Mount Subdivision, Phase I, Lots 88-89-
90-93-94-95, Preliminary Plat. UPON VOICE VOTE: Commissioners: Wooley,

PRELIM I NARY PLAT/FINAL PLAT: MCKAY INDUSTRIAL SUBDIVISION (TR IX DR. AREA)
WEST-TRIPP & ASSOCIATES, ENGINEERS.
Mr. George West represented Mr. Jim McKay, owner and developer. Letter of
submission from West-Tripp & Associates was read by Chrm. Cavender. Mr.
West reiterated the fact that water, sewer and streets were existing;
therefore, no utility or street plans would need to be submitted to various
departments of the city.
In discussing plat itself, City Eng. Smith suggested an additional 5-ft.
of right-of-way be given on Trix Drive for street minimum requirements to
be met. Mr. West requested a variance/waiver to subdivision regulations
in this regard as LRAFB 40-ft. abutting sewer easement would have to be
infringed upon and it would be almost an impossibility, in his estimation,
to obtain 5-ft. from the Federal government. A 25-ft. turn radius where
Trix Drive turns on to Main St. was agreed to by Mr. West and said the
plat would be changed accordingly in order to deed to the city said
amount of property needed in order to properly engineer street rights of
way -at aforementioned location.
At 8:14P.M., Chrm. Cavender interrupted discussion in order for public
hearing proceedings to commence with understanding subdivision plat under
consideration would be taken up later in the meeting.
PUBLIC HEARING: BRIARFIELD SUBDIVISION, SECTION 3, PHASE III, 4 .86 ACRES/
UNPLATTED/PETITIONER: JIM PEACOCK: FROM R-3 TO R-5 ZERO LOT LINES. (For
legal, see Minutes of Jan. 14, 1980)
Chrm. Cavender opened public hearing at 8 :15P.M., and officially recognized
notice of publication as placed in files. There was no objection voiced
during proceedings to the rezoning of above referenced properties. It was
brought out in discussion that Phase I and Phase II had been already rezaned
to R-5 zero lotlines. Comm. Lock moved, seconded by Comm. Betts, to rec-
ommend to city council that aforementioned properties be rezoned from R-3
to R-5 classification. Approved by unanimous voice vote. MOTION CARRIED.
DEVIATION IN AGENDA: MCKAY INDUSTRIAL SUBDIVISION/PRELIMINARY-FINAL PLAT:
Membership returned to above referenced plat before them. Mr. Geo. West
reminded all concerned that Pulaski Industrial Park Subdivision had already
been platted and an extra 5-ft. of right-of-way for street widening would
not be practical at this stage. After discussion concerning LRAFB sewer
easement situation proposing to be infringed upon, Comm. Wagnon moved, sec-
onded by Comm. Lock, to approve above referenced plat with exception of
25-ft. radius to be drawn on plat and grant a waiver of 5-ft. needed
on Trix Drive, keeping in mind membership was aware of street not meeting
minimum requirements. Approved by unanimous voice vote. MOTION CARRIED.

sent. PRESENT 8. ABSENT: l. Others present: Mayor James Reid; Aldermen
Knight and Abdin; City Inspector New; Metroplan representative Charles Randel;
City Engineer Mike Smith plus citizens interested in business to be presented.
1. Chairman Cavender opened the meeting with a ROLL CALL recorded by Secretary
Gerren. He declared a quorum present and offered the following introductory
remarks:
"Tonight, as duly advertised and published according to provisions in
Act 186, we are considering recommending to the City Council adoption
of an updated Master Street Plan Map accompanied by Master Street Plan
document. This public hearing will be conducted in an orderly manner
and I will recognize all present who wish to be heard. I'll call this
public hearing to order at this time and ask our City Engineer, Mr.
Mike Smith, to present the Master Street Plan Map along with Mr. Chas.
Randel from Metroplan to interject his thoughts on the presentation.
Then, I would like to hear from the members of the commission to ascer-
tain if there are any questions or comments. Lastly, I will opeh the
floor for comments and input from the assembled audience we have here
tonight."
2. City Eng. Smith stated he had been working with the Planning Commission since
June of 1979 on the proposed update to the Master Street Plan. In his intro-
ductory remarks, Mr. Smith brought out that he was of the opinion said plan
was a good plan, but not a new one, in that the map and plan should be in-
terpreted to be updated documents noting that several changes were being
proposed in the road system around the city and interwoven traffic arterials.
Further, the plan document should be considered to be quite a bit different
than the original with it being shorter and more to the point. He pointed
out that the map and document before the commission should be considered a
"planning tool" only and includes general locations of streets, so it does
not affect any public or private properties insofar as exact placement of
roads/streets. Also, he reiterated the fact that the map and the document
should be considered "flexible" when taking into consideration the design
and location of any street. In his closing statement, Mr. Smith said he would
like to take the document(s) to the City Council and then work on revising
the city's subdivision regulations.
3. Mr. Charles Randel was introduced next and he touched on changes proposed to
be made in the plan. He said they were mostly administrative in nature. He
reported the document will come in compliance with Act 308 of 1973 with term-
inology in street nomenclasures being the same as other cities in Pulaski
County, the Highway Department and Pulaski County itself. Further, he said
the Highway Transportation Department utilizes aforementioned regulations in
nomenclasure system of roadways. Mr. Randel then reviewed the six class-
ifications of streets outlined in updated document. He reminded the memb,er-
ship that -the document tends to reflect the central portion of the city proper,
but it should be kept in mind that the planning area (extra-territorial)
boundary should also be considered. Lastly, Mr. Randel announced the Priority
{ t' J'!J

Listing of street improvements that had been previously included in plan
will be deleted and submitted to City Council on an annual basis as a
separate, distinct document, He then announced there had been some changes
made in the corridor alignments in the map.
4. Chairman Cavender recognized Commissioner Lock. Commissioner Lock expressed
some doubt concerning property owners' rights. City Eng. Smith explained
there will be no exact alignment of any street, but if at the time a pro-
posed development would distinctly inhibit the possibility of implementing
the Master Street Plan, he said it would be .. up to the city to purchase the
property. Comm. Betts brought out the fact that the 1977 map being used
by the city at this time had quite a few changes made in the new proposed
plan and quite possibly, noting proposed extension of Loop Road around the
city as an example, the route might be changed using Vandenburg Blvd.
as loop around the city.
5. The Reverend John W, Kordsmeier, Pastor, St. Jude Catholic Church, was rec-
ognized next and he read a prepared, written statement that offered a formal
objection to any placement of Loop Road extension in the area of a proposed
new church on McArthur Drive. (See Exhibit A)
6. In further discussion, Father Kordsmeier stated the church owned 5 ,5 acres
in aforementioned area of Jacksonville. City Eng. Smith was asked how much
right-of-way would be necessary for prop~sed street to go around the city
and he replied it would be 100-feet.
7. Mr. Dickson Flake, realty agent for the church, was recognized and he ob-
jected to proposed loop around the city in behalf of church and its build-
ing committee present at the hearing. City Eng. Smith then discussed with
membership the city's alternatives open in order to imp Jl ement building pro-
posed loop. DISCUSSION:· Purchase chu~ch property; approach air base on
encroachment of road; go through Lessel Estates or not do it at all.
8. Mayor Reid stated as far as he was concerned in the matter of the .church
building plans, the proposed loop around the city would go around afore-
mentioned grounds, and he would not refuse a building permit. He then
brought out the fact the city does not like to condemn private property
and cited a case in the city where land is very much needed to build a
new street to relieve traffic conjestion, but the city has not condemned
said land as yet, hoping to talk the owner into purchasing the . .needed
right-of-way.
9. A question was raised as to location of proposed Highway Dept. placement of
North Belt Loop formerly pegged to go through Northlake Subdivision. Mayor
Reid reported the Highway Dept. was presently setting aside funds for said
project, but exact placement has not been definitely set up.
10. I1r. Arthur Thomas, engineer, was recognized and he stated the plan and
document were very easy to work with, but he had one question and that
concerned the possibility of Master Street Plan regulations conflicting
with subdivision regulations on pavement widths. After some discussion
concerning recent attorney's opinion stating that when aforementioned
conflict arose, the Master Street Plan would override subdivision reg-
ulations. Therefore, he suggested the ordinance and plan include the
following provisions: "Where conditions warrant, variances may be granted
by the Jacksonville Planning Commission to allow staged construction of
streets requiring· wider than thirty-six (36) fo o t pavement." The city
engineer and membership agreed to this provision being included in plan.

Mr. Randel stated the subdivision regulations are intended to implement
the Master Street Plan and he differed from the legal opinion mentioned
earlier giving preference to subdivision regulations over Master Street
Plan on construction.
Planning Commission Secretary Gerren reported the City Council would next
hear an Ordinance adopting plan and map on March 20. It was brought out
in discussion that according to provisions in Act 186 the City Council can
adopt documents as presented, send them back to the Planning Commission for
further s .tudy or they can adopt their own revised version with majority con-
sent. L 0 Q. c. I 1-\ A\\(_; r ·" r I '· -_. r. ,_.. ·:... \ -) ., ., •• 8 6 ·_ ---------r;' &C/c l.CA---' .)
Comm. Lock moved to recommend to the City Council adoption of plan with tne
exception of that portion of propose.d roadway that lies between 67-167 High-
way and Marshall Road, with deletion of same. Motion died for lack of second.
Father Kordsmeier was asked if he had any objection to the city planning a
loop around the city. He said he had none as long as he was assured the
church building plans would not be interfered with and somewhere down the
road the city would not vmnt to take prop erty for proposed new street.
Conclusion reached among some of the members was that the Master Street Plan
should be considered as a "planning tool" only and not definite placement
or construction of roadways are intended, and that the subdivision re g·ulations
shall prevail over the implementation of constructed roads in the Master Street
Plan.
15. Commissione r Howard moved, seconded by Commissioner Betts, to adopt Master
Street Plan documents as presented and present same to City Council with
one sentence agreed to earlier in meeting included . ROLL CALL and the follow-
ing voted aye, Commissioners: Wooley, Wilkinson, Betts, Morgan and Howard.

RE: Proposed master street plan
"I come as Pastor of St. Jude's Catholic Church in regard to the newspaper account of
the planning of the future extension of Loop Road. It appears that it will bisect
property owned by the parishioners (235 families) for a church plant, including a
church, rectory, educational building, parking, playground etc. As you are
probably aware-this property has been cleared and sign designating (it's) pur-_
pose erected. Contact has begun with architects concerning the layout of the
facilities, etc. This property begins from the U. S. Government right-of-way
on Vandenburg Blvd. along McArthur for approximately 842 feet.
Certainly any road to bisect would certainly render the use of this property
unusable (unsuitable) for the purpose purchased. Hence, I wish to make known,
as I understand the hearing is for that purpose, a formal objection in the name
of St. Jude's Catholic Church, to any planned placement of the extension of
Loop Road in this area. "

The City Engineer and membership reviewed a letter dated March 7, 1980, sub-
mitted by Pulaski County Planning & Development, executed by Wallace Wyeth,
Subdivision Coordinator. Jon Cooper, developer, was present accompanied by
engineer, Mr. Mobbs and legal counsel, Mr. Thomas Donovan . Mr. Paul Wood-
ward, resident of subdivision, objected to not having a paved road at his
Lot #7. Mr. Cooper reported he sold lots in subdivision through warranty
deed and purchase agreement, and plat had been recorded at Court House.
City Eng. Smith recommended the commission go along with recommendations out-
lined in Staff Review forwarded with aforementioned letter of March 7th, as
follows:
"STAFF COMMENT"
"The Staff of Planning & Development has no objections to the following:
l. A 20 ft. surface on the road
2, Using open ditch rather than curb and gutter
3, Allowing lot depth of lots 37-45 to exceed the 4:1 ratio
4, The excessive angle of intersection (65° 14') at Jansen and Jenson
5. Allowing streets with a 50' right of way and a 5' utility easement
on each side.
The County would prefer that grades exceeding 12% not be allowed in new sub-
divisions. However, considering the status of this project, the County will
accept the proposed 15.6% if approved by the City , We would like to encourage
the project engineer to try and achieve a reduced grade if at all possible,
The typical road section will need to be changed to show a 6" crown, a tapered
shoulder and an 18" minimum ditch depth.
The Bill of Assurance needs to be altered to require that "any change must be
approved by the JACKSONVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION."

Any approval should be subject to the approval of the State Health Dept.
and approval of drainage by the City's engineer.
The legal description needs to include the exception of lots 8 and 21.~
Mr. Cooper then reported he had to sell lots in Phase I before he could do any-
thing at all in the way of road improvements for Phase II.
At this time, Chrm. Cavender halted discussion on Pine Valley Estates plat and
announced it was 8:00p.m.; therefore, public hearing(s) that had been pub-
lished would convene, and Pine Valley Estates would be taken up later in meeting.
PUBLIC HEARING: LAMBS SUBDIVISION #2, LOT #16: FROM: R-2 TO C-3:
Proof of publication of legal notice was acknowledged b y Chrm. Cavender. Some
of the members discussed whether rezoning signs had been placed on affected prop-
erty. Comm. Lock moved, seconded by Comm. Howard, to hold item in abeyance.
Chrm. Cavender then requested City Inspector New to leave the court room and
visually inspect said premises for signs. Therefore, aforementioned motion was
withdrawn. No action was forthcoming on this rezoning petition until later in
the meeting.

of traffic hazard with, in his estimation, enough commercial property in immediate .
area. Mr. Gene Wilson, petitioner, stated that Mr. Goodsell, who owns property

Chrm. Cavender returned to above referenced plat. Mr. Woodward was again rec-
ognized and he again reiterated his former remarks and stated that when he
bought his property the developer promised a road would be built and said im-
provements would be accomplished b y the County. Mr. Marlan Howe was recognized
as owner of Lot #4. Mr. Bob Williams was next heard, owner of Lot #14. Both
gentlemen complained of lack of road system. Mr. Cooper, developer, rebutted
aforementioned remarks by stating he had promised prospective buyers that a
gravel road would be installed, not a paved s y stem. Mr. Cooper further reported
it would cost approximately $50,000.00 to $60,000.00 to pave Phase I and Phase II.

but City Eng. Smith said the County Judge wouldn't accept this proposal.

DEVIATION IN AGENDA:
Chrm. Cavender deviated from published Agenda in order to accomodate legal
counsel for Item #8, as follows:
CLOSING OF FRONT STREET/BETWEEN CHESTNUT ST. AND WALNUT ST./ORIG. TN. OF JCKVL.:
Miss Daisy Olson, Atty. at Law was in attendance. At request of Chrm. Cavender,
secretary read submission letter dated March 20, 1980. City Eng. Smith reported
he saw no problem in closing the street. Miss Olson stated that as far as she
knew there were no utilities located on the property. Comm. Wooley moved,
seconded by Comm. Lock, to recommend to the City Council that portion of Front
St. between Chestnut and Walnut St. be closed. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Comm. Ray arrived at this time.
DISCUSSION: REZONING FEES:
Comm. Lock stated the purpose of his sponsoring a discussion on present policy
of charging $50 per petitioner for rezoning(s) to be placed in legal notices,
was that he felt if several property owners were to go together and attempt
to rezone a particular "block", then only $50 should be charged. After some
further discussion on pros and cons of present procedures used to collect monies
for advertising, general consensus of opinion reached was to keep present policy.
LIBERTY SUBDIVISION/CASEY STREET EXTENSION PROPOSAL:
Comm. Ray spoke in behalf of The Neighborhood Action Group and the membership
also heard from Addie Goshon, 1216 Ray Road. Topic of discussion concerned
Casey Street at present time runs into a deadend and the aforementioned group
of citizens would like to see said street connected into O'Neil Street in or-
der to have shorter access to Military Road through Woodbriar Subdivision and
Liberty Subdivision. Membership heard from Mr. Floyd Casey, also, who stated
the citizens felt they were being blocked in all the way around and it would
be helpful and easier if Casey St. could be hooked into O'Neil St. that should
be built by developers of Liberty Subdivision. City Eng. Smith recommended
street extension not be done because through traffic situation tends to destroy
residential, neighborhood atmosphere. Consensus reached was to pass this on
to the City Council with no objection being voiced to proposed street being
built. Comm. Betts said he was against through traffic being routed this way.
ANNEXATION/31.0 ACRES/CLOVERDALE ROAD AREA:
Attorney, Mike Wilson, represented landowners. He said there were 3-4 annex-
ations in the mill at present time and the County Judge had approved the two
proposals involving annexation on the Agenda on this date. Zoning of
newly annexed property came up for discussion, and the consensus reached
was that properties are to be classified according to the use in effect on the
effective date of annexation, and such zoning classification shall remain in
effect until such time a different classification is adopted.

DISCUSSION: SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS AS THEY PERTAIN TO PROPERTIES LOCATED
IN COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL ZONES/UNPLATTED PARCELS, IN PARTICULAR:
Combining Items 3 and 4 on published Agenda, membership heard from City Eng.
Smith and City Insp. New. Discussed revolved around the fact there are areas
of the city, residential and commercially zoned, that remain unplatted.
A plat was presented by City Eng. Smith that depicted layout of a duplex
under construction at Stonewall Drive and Highway 161 North, unplatted,
zoned R-2 which was sold to E. Ray Smith on a metes and bounds legal descrip-
tion. City Eng. Smith explained the city's building permit requirements
do not authorize any structure to be built on an unplatted piece of prop-
erty. ALso, said regulations state which way buildings are to be placed on
lots. Mr. New stated when he received plot plan, in his estimation, the
plat was a legal subm ission, in this instance, and a permit was i ssued.
City Insp. New said the developer of aforementioned properties, Savers
Financial, do not want to plat lands at this time; Bill Owens, Bond Con-
sulting Engineers , also stated the developer was endeavoring to sell the
properties to separate individuals. Consensus of opinion reached among
members was the commission would like to see some kind of plan brought forth
for this area. The membership then instructed City Insp. New to not issue
any further building permits in said area until a preliminary plan had been
submitted and approved in final form by Planning Commission. They then
instructed the City Engineer to contact developer and ~equest a preliminary
plan be submitted for both commercial and residential zones in area, so
stated.
REPLAT: LOT #53/LESSEL ESTATES:
City Insp. New reported the petitioner had not submitted sufficient paper-
work to act on this item of business; therefore, Comm. Cavender ruled it
be held in abeyance.

REQUEST FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF ETHANOL DISTILLING PLANT
IN THE INDUSTRIAL ZONE OF JACKSONVILLE (NO. REDMOND RD., OLD POLARON BUILDING)
Mr. Billy Ward, petitioner, was present to e~plain his request for above referenced
plantconstruction. Also, Asst. Fire Chief Ricky Ezell was in attendance to offer
his recommendations.
Mr. John New and Asst. Chief Ezell explained to membership that they had both
advised Mr. Ward that the city code prohibits this type of plant in the fire
district. Chrm. Cavender stated letters of approval would be required from EPA,
Fire Dept., Water Dept., and Sewer Dept., before any consideration could be given
to request. Mr. Ward argued his proposed plant would be a distilling plant and
not a refinery, thus non-hazardous, in his opinion with said plant producing 190
proof alcohol to be mixed with gasoline. Mr. New further stated before a build-
ing permit could be issued the petitioner would need to procure a set of diagrams
per the Public Health and Engineering Dept. of the State of Arkansas. Mr. New
stated a compromise could be made if fire protection guidelines were to be complied
with.
Mr. Ward stated he had talked to the Water, SevJer and Fire Departments during pre~
vious week and it was his understanding letters of approval would be forthcoming
and said letters would be sent to the Planning Commission Secretary. Secretary
reported she had not received said communications.
Mayor Reid then updated membership on his comprehension of the proposed project.
He said the plant would be unique within the county and would be a test/prototype
model and he would like for the city to gi've Mr. Ward all the help it could
in order to have said firm established i'f all safety hazards were all evi·a ted ,
Final consensus of opinion reached concerning the issuance of a building permit
and permitting conditional use i'n the Industri'al Zone, was to instruct Mr. Ward
to work with the City Inspector and i'f letters of approval from Fire, Water, Sewer
and EPA were received by the petitioner, that a special meeting would be called
on this matter if said information was received before next regular meeting date.

Mr. Ward was also told that final word on this proposal would have to come from

DEVIATION IN AGENDA-PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO ORDINANCE COVERING REPLATS/LOT-SPLITS:
Chrm. Cavender, with permission from membership, skipped above referenced item of
business .to be discussed later in the meeting.
REPLAT: LOT #3/CAMPBELL INDUSTRIAL SUBDIVISION/CORY. DR. & S. REDMOND RD. AREA/
SMITH HYDRAULICS, PETITIONER/RATIFICATION OF ACTION TAKEN EARLIER:
Chrm. Cavender reported non-receipt of $50 replat fee set by city code. He ex-
plained this matter of business had been voted on earlier by a telephone poll
of five members: results/granted approval of replat. Whereupon, Comm. Ray moved,
seconded by Comm. Wooley, to grant approval of the replat pending receipt of $50
replat fee. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY _ (Comm. Lock reported Smith Hydraulic firm
would submit aforementioned fee) ~--n . ~ -4 ·
REPLAT: LOT 34/0VERLOOK SUBDIVISION/HIGHLAND COURT DR. (MCLYLE ZUMWALT, PETITIONER)
Bill Owens and T. R. Bond, representing petitioner, presented replat and explained
reasoning behind the request. ($50 fee was receipted in files)
Aforementioned engineers reported after property was replatted there would be enough
room left for a home to be built .with the reason for replat being owners would like
to obtain access to property they owned that would be developed later. Therefore,
the petitioners were dedicating street right-of-way for s aid access with any ex-
pense for said street construction to be borne by the developer.
Comm. Betts moved, seconded by Comm. Wooley, to approve replat with the stipulation
petitioner pay for all street improvements and the street would be built to city
code. ROLL CALL and the following voted aye, Commissioners: vJooley, Wilkinson,
Betts, ~~organ and Ray. Commissioners: Lock, \>Jagnon and Howard voted nay. Motion
received 5 ayes and 3 nays. MOTION CARRIED.
NON -AGENDA: REQUEST FOR REZONING:
Chrm. Cavender stated he had a letter requesting rezoning of some property. ~/here
upon, Mike vlilson, Attorney at Law, approached membership and explained he would
like to withdraw this request at this time because item of business belonged with
the Board of Adjustment instead of the Planning Commission.
DISCUSSION: AMENDMENT TO ORDINANCE PROPOSED: REPLATS-LOT-SPLITS PROCEDURE:
Comm. Lock, sponsor of above referenced proposal, stated that there comes a time
when the process presently authorized for replats and lot-splits should be speeded
up. He further stated he would like to see an amendment to the ordinance requiring
a small committee be authorized to rule on said plats instead of them always having
to wait for a Planning Commission meeting. He recommended the City Engineer,
City Inspector and maybe -.one or two members of the Planning Commission be allowed
to pass on these documents. The public at large, he announced, doesn't realize
why they have to go through the period of waiting it sometimes requires in ofder
for the once-a-month Planning Commission meeting to come around.
Comm. Ray moved to adopt a policy on replats/lot-splits, allowing City Engineer,
City Inspector and a member of the Planning Commission to review same. Motion
died for lack of second.
After further discussion, general consensus of op1n1on reached was to leave the
present systemas is with the Planning Commission reviewing all replats/lot-splits.
DISCUSSION: REVIEW OF SUBD IVISION REGULATIONS :

JULY 14, 1980
Mr. Charles Randel, Metroplan, updated membership on what he and Mike Smith, former
City Engineer, had accomplished in the way of possible amendments and/or changes
to city 1 s subdivision regulations. He reported he would be willing to work with
the commission on these revisions if body so desired same. He then delivered
some suggestions as to proposed changes, as follows: (1) MA KE THE STREET
TERMINOLOGY TO BE CONSISTENT WITH MASTER STREET PLAN RECENTLY ADOPTED (2) INCLUDE
STREET SCHEDULE THAT THE COUNTY PERMITS IN RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISON REGULATIONS
(estate provisions) (3) MORE EMPHASIS ON IMPROVEMENT TO PRESENT REGULATIONS THAT
WOULD COVER COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL SUBDIVISIONS, OPPOSED TO RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISIONS
(4) ESTABLISH WRITTEN PROCEDURES, STEP BY STEP, FOR THE SUBDIVISION REVIEW P~OCESS.
Mr. Randel then stated if membership would like to obtain his services to help
draft and finalize revisions, that a letter should be written to Jason Rouby,
Metroplan, requesting same and said services would be provided.
Membership expressed desire for Mr. Randel 1 S expertise; therefore , secretary was
instructed to contact Metroplan in this regard.

A letter from Marlar Engineering was read by Chrm. Cavender that submitted
above referenced plat for consideration along with $50 fee for review. Said
letter was dated 8-4-1980 and outlined request of a replat dividing three lots
into five lots as listed above. The subdivision is serviced by all utilities
including sanitary sewer. The Bill of Assurance provisions addressed by
said changes could not be presented at this time as legal counsel, Mr. Mike
Wilson, was not in attendance early in the meeting. Therefore, this item
of business was held in abeyance until later in the prot~edings.
REPORT: NORTHWOOD HEIGHTS SUBDIVISION/OUTSIDE CITY LIMIT ILLEGAL DEVELOPMENT:
City Attorney Groce presented a short, oral report on above referenced sub-
division development. He reminded the membership this matter had been turned
over to his office on June 9, 1980 in order to have the developer, Mr. Byron
McKimmey, Real Estate Central, 5321 John F. Kennedy Blvd., North Little Rock,
Arkansas, stopped from selling lots as plat(s) had not been approved.
After reviewing letters in the file covering Prosecuting Attorney 1 s actions
in attempting to stop illegal sale of lots in unrecorded subdivision, Mr.
Groce referred to the latest communication from his office to above referenced
developer dated June 24, 1980, which reads as follows: 11 Dear Mr. ~kKimmey:
After talking with Mr. Hugh L. Brown and Mr. Wallace \l!yeth, I now concur with
their conclusion that further sales of your property, if sold as you pre-
viously have, would be illegal. Therefore, I suggest that you refrain from
selling any additional lots until your subdivision is approved by the Jackson-
ville Planning Commission as you agreed you would in our last telephone con-
versation. 11
Mr. Groce stated it looked like this matter could end up in court before
final disposition is made. Further, he reported if Mr. McKimmey doesn 1 t
sell any more lots, he will be o.k. But if he does proceed to sell lots,
then a warrant will be issued for his arrest. Mr. Groce suggested that
the code might have to be amended in order to provide for penalties to cover
cases of this nature.
Mr. Groce summed up his report by stating there are some ~opinions, and his
coincides , that lots over 5 acres should be platted and recorded just like
any other development. However, he said the developer is of the opinion
that if lots are over 5 acres, the development does not have to be subdivided
and recorded as such. He said he would inform the membership if anything
transpires on this stalemate.

REPLAT: GIBSON ESTATE SUBDIVISION/LOTS 8-9-10/DEVIATION IN AGENDA:
Chrm. Cavender recognized Mr. Mike Wilson, Attorney at Law, who had arrived dur-
ing proceedings to represent owner of property. Mr. Wilson then introduced Mr.
Danny McGill, owner. Mr. ~Jilson stated that 60 % of the property owners had
signed the amended Bill of Assurance. (60 % being required in original document)
Mr. McGill reported he intended to build small homes on the lots. The member-·
ship compared the dimensions in the code and came up with an R-1 approximate
zoning if lots were inside the city limits. It was brought out that 25-ft.
building line would be in compliance with the Pulaski County Planning Board's
views. Comm. Lock moved, seconded by Comm. Wooley, to approve the Replat of
Gib~n Estate Subdivision, so stated. Approved by voice vote. MOTION CARRIED.
NON-AGENDA: DISCUSSION: ORO. #600 ADOPTED BY CITY COUNCIL AMENDING BLDG. CODE:
Chrm. Cavender outlined the provisions as provided for in above referenced ord-
inance adopted by governing body of the city covering the issuance of building
permits on unplatted parcels of land in multi-family and commercial areas of
the city.
Membership then discussed ramifications of above referenced ordinance and what
effect it would have on development of unplatted lands lying east on Highway
161 North in Stonewall Subdivision. Traffic control, four-laning of said high-
way and various other safety concerns were thoroughly discussed with Mr. T. R.
Bond, Bond Consulting Engineers, proclaiming himself as the "devil's advocate" wh.o
took the part of owner, developer and real estate interests and voiced their
concerns citing the present poor economic conditions in building trade ~nd the
up-and-down interest rates being factors that needed to be considered.
Membership then directed that a letter be forwarded to the City Council address-
; ng the Planning Commission's concern on above referenced subject and said 1 etter
was to state Ord. #600 should be rescinded and this strong recommendation so
substantiated by quoting inconsistencies prevalent if legislation does become
law on September 7th, citing Master Street Plan/Map document(s) and the fact
proper planning of the city did lie with the Planning Commission. Also, the
letter was to request an official line of communication be established between
both bodies as to when the council considers any planning legislation so in-
put may be gained.
NON-AGENDA: REQUEST FOR BLDG. PERMIT/UNPLATTED PARCEL OF LAND/JANE DR. AREA:
T. R. Bond approached membership on behalf of owner, Marshall Smith, requesting
a building permit for a duplex to be constructed at 858-860 Jane Drive. After
determining the water and sewer services were at property and zoning was within
code guidelines, Comm. Wooley moved, seconded by Comm. Lock, to grant request
for building permit to be issued on unplatted land, so stated. Approved by
voice vote. MOTION CARRIED.
NON-AGENDA: REPLAT OF LOTS 140, 141 AND 142, FOXWOOD SUB. PHASE V: (DELETING LOT #141)
T. R. Bond request above r~ferenced Replat be considered at this time. Comm. Betts
moved to consider Replat at the next regular meeting scheduled for Sept. 8th. Motion
died for lack of second.
Ne xt, the membership discussed another request by above referenced owner, Mr. Ron
Mills. ~k. New, Code Enforcement Director, stated he had talked with Mr. Mills
on a request for a building permit on lot #1 42 in above referenced Replat and he
saw no problems with it. Whereupon, Comm. Ray moved, seconded by Comm. Wagnon,
to grant an exception to the rule (allowing issuance of a building permit ahead
of approval of Replat) and grant building permit to Mr. Mills. Approved by voice
vote. MOTION CARRIED. REPLAT TO BE PRESENTED ON SEPT. 8TH FOR OFFICIAL ACTION.

Discussion revealed that parcel is located in the flood plain/there is no
sewer provided to property; property owner (Campbell) plans on building
their own private residence on said land; no problem encountered with
water service to property; a permit is required from State Highway Depart-
ment for culvert/driveway entrance.
Membership/through advice from City Inspector John New/advised petitioner(s)
that they would have to provide 175-ft. of private sewer line to be con-
structed in order to serve home .to be built with an easement to be pro-
cured by said petitioner(s) across other private property. The petitioners
stated they had met with both Water and Sewer Department representatives
and they had told them what they needed to do. Mr. New stated he would
not be able to issue building permit until all these particulars had been
worked out with utilities; also, he said he would need signed permit from
Highway Dept. allowing driveway cut. Whereupon, Comm. Wagnon moved, sec-
onded by Comm. Lock, to grant the building permit. Approved by voice vote.

Mr. Dobbins was present to plead his case. The front set-back requirements
were addressed. Plot plan presented reflected 25-ft. set-back where zoning
requirements state that 35-ft. must be met. Mr. Dobbins stated the pro-
posed home he was wanting to build on said parcel of land was situated on
plot plan in this manner as the rest of the homes on the blbck were lined
up with 25-ft. set-backs and he was just trying to keep his in 'line.
City Insp. New reported for the record that sewer service to the property is
located on the North side of Valentine Road and there is no stub-out provided
for aforementioned lot with responsibility lying with owner to pay for the
necessary street cut, plus tie-on fees and all expenses involved. Also,
the sewer and water tie-on fees, according to Mr. New, would have to be
paid prior to building permit issuance, as required by city code. Mr.
Dobbins reported he had talked with Mr. Oskowis of the Water Department on
water service and this was taken care of. Comm. Betts moved, seconded by
Comm. Wooley, to grant issuance of building permit and allow a waiver to
front set-back so as to line the proposed home up with houses on either
side of Mr. Dobbins' property. Approved by voice vote. MOTION CARRIED.

JOINT INFORMAL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 2, 1980 (7:00P.M. -8:45P.M.)
The Jac kso nville City Council and Jacksonville Planning Commission met in
informal session, Tuesday, September 2, 1980, 7:00p.m., Municipal Building ,
109 South Se con d Street, in the Office of the Mayor.
ATTEN DAN CE:
CITY COUNCIL MEMBERSHIP: Aldermen: Knight, Brooks , Wilson, Boyd, Abdin, Keaton
and Williamson. PLANNING CQr.1MISSION ~1EMBERSHIP: Commissioners: Wooley, Wagnon,
Wilkinson, Betts, Morgan, Howard and Chairman Cavender. Also in attendance:
Mayor Reid ; City Clerk Gerren; Inspector New; Asst. Inspector Kearney and new-
ly hired City Engineer Bi ll Owens, plus citizens interested in discussion.
INVOCATION/PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG:
Mayor· Reid called informal meeting to order and proceeded to deliver the In-
vocatio n and led the standing audience in the recitation of 11 Pledge of Alleqiance.11
GENERAL:
Mayor Reid opened meeting by stating the proceedings should not be construed
to be an official council meeting. The intent of getting together, here-
pprted, was to discuss Ordinance 600 adopted by city council on Aug. 7, 1980.
In his open ing remar ks Mayor Reid said legislation had generated some dis-
cussion; therefore, the best thing to do, as decided at August 21st Regular
Meeting, would be to get together on both sides of this issue and talk about
contents of the ordinance to see if anything could be done to settle difficul-
ties the Planning Commission and some council members were comprehendin g
with passage of the ordinance.
In discussion that followed, Alderman Keaton, sponsor of legislation, said he
did not think the ordinance was 'going to cause any sort of problem as it was,
in his estimation, merely a building code enforcement item of business and
did not interfere with the planning process. Chair·man of the Planning Commission,
Cleo Cavender, then read a prepared statement in behalf of the Planning Commission
which sta ted in part that Ord. #600 should be rescinded as the legislation weak-
ened the aut hority of the Planning Commission in controlling development where
unplatted parcels of property are concerned. Further, he stated that Savers,
developer of Stonewall Subdivision, has been mandated by the Planning Commission
to submit a plat of how they plan to develop highway frontage, unplatted prop-
erty, on Highway 161 presently zoned R-3 and C-2, as said unplatted properties
face on a busy thoroughfare which isn •t sufficient to handle any more additional
traffic without th e city and/or the highway dept . four~laning and signaling
the roadway. Ald. Abdin noted if a developer, in his estimation, meet s all
code requirements and planned a development for which all of the property
has been previously zoned by the city, then th e Planning Commission does not
have the authority, per state statutes, to refuse a building permit.
Comm. Wooley said that, in his opinion, Highway 161 unplatted highway frontage
was just a small part of the overall problem. He reported the Planning Comm .
has been charged with planning and part of their function was to advise the
council in not only matters of subdivis ion development, zoning, etc., but also
in development of streets that serve devel opments. In particular, he mentioned
the possibility of numerous street breaks (driveway s ) being allowed to cut into
already heavily traveled areas, thus increasing traffic flow to an even more
intolerable, haza rdo us level , such as Highway 161 supports.
PAGE TWO JACKSONVILLE CITY COUNCIL
JACKSONVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION
INFOR~1AL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 2, 1980
Alderman \~ilson said the council probably erred in not getting the Planning
Commission's recommendations before adopting Ord. #600, but this wouldn't
be the case in the future. He further stated that the market for money
in housi ng for commercial and residential establishments has been fluctuating
with the "p ri ce 11 of the money being a big factor. Thus, the passage of Ord .
#60 0 wo uld be a goo d thing for developers as it would facilitate the
issuance of building permits much faster than the city's present policy pre-
sents ·itself. and also allow financing to go through faster for development,
Both sides agreed during discussion that they could see each others view-
points' and concerns in this matter of issuing building permits on unplatted
parcels of land zoned multi-family and commercial without plats going to
Planning Commission for approval.
Dan Flowers , State Highway Dist . VI representative, said he had been talking
with the mayor on improv i ng certain intersections in the city and the High-
way Dept. did have a policy on controlling access on major thoroughfares,
but if the city had stri cter legislation, they would abide by the city's rules.
Comm. Morgan as ked who would directly benefit from Ord. #600 and Ald. Keaton
replied the deve l op er would be nef i t a s they would be able to obtain a build-
i ng permit quick er and they would not have to pay f0r pre~aration of ~-plat.
Ther e was no official action taken at the meeting, nor was there a motion
entertained to resolve the impasse over merits/disadvantages of passage
of Ord. #6 00.

til November 1, 1980. Concerning the first Ordinance #612, Mr. Owens

by the city of Hot Springs, Arkansas. Further, concerning driveways arrl
access for building pe:r:mits issued in R-3, R-4, R-5, C-1, C-2, C-3 and C-4
zones, he said the Highway Dept. did not have any trouble with the city having
stricter regulations than theirs. Mr. Owens stated he would like to have
even stricter code than in Ordinance #613 and referred to the following sen-
tence located therein; "The minimum curb length between driveways shall be
forty feet (40') on the same pror:erty arrl ~nty feet (20') to the property
line. " Discussion then followed on Mr. Owens ' recarmendation to have sc:.me
input on stricter regulations for arterial thoroughfares in the city. He
then mentioned along Marshall Road, along Main Street and both North and
South Highway 161 .needing to be addressed in this regard.
Discussion ensued concerning the Highway Department's recent statEment to
Mr. OWens that they are putting State Hiwy. 161 through Jacksonville on
their master plan for four-laning. (Note: For FUI'URE)
Mr. Owens directed his rEmarks again to Chapter 12. 24. 090 of Ord. #613 cov-
ering driveways. Ch:r:m. Cavender appointed Ccmnissioners Howard, Betts and
Wooley to a special committee to work with Street Ccmnittee of the City
Council (Brooks and Keaton) to address the application of driveways for
arterial streets -requiring an amendment to the ordinance.
Crnm. Betts moved, seconded by Canm. Ray, to report to the City Council that

arrl City Eng. Owens reported said monies have been placed in the General Fund,
but in reality the Street Department is having to pay for street inspection

Fund. Final decision made was that a special fund be set up with Mr. Kelley,
city's Finance Director -if feasible and Mr. ONens arrl Mr. Martin are to then
charge expenses against said account. This will enable the city, also, to
keep abreast of monies arrl if the fees charged by ordinance are satisfying
the demarrls of charges made against the city for streets.

PRELIMINARY PLAT: DEEREWOOD SUBDIVISION, PHASE IV: 0/S CITY LIMITS:
(General location: Left on Lynnewood Drive off of Jckvl.-Cato Rd)
Plat fee had not been received by meeting time. Bond Engineers rep.
reported fee would be submitted shortly as it was thought the check
had been forwarded to the city hall.
Chrm. Cavender reported Fire Chief Smart had approved location of
fire hydrants as per his letter dated ll-06-1980 ,placed in file._
Bond Engineer rep. reported the subdivision contained 8.72 acres
and was being served by a sewer improvement district with water
provided by the city of No. Little Rock.
In reviewing plat, suggestion was made that turn-arounds be provided
for traffic at dead-ends of Lynnewood Dr. and Creekwood Drive. How-
ever, recommendation was dropped because the developer, Mr. Elwood
Deere, stated he did not own adjacent properties and this would not
be feasible. Dead-end streets v1ere acknowledged by commission as
being only answer available at this time and said conclusion was
accepted by developer.
Comm. Wooley moved, seconded by Comm. Howard,
submitted. Approved by unanimous voice vote.

DISCUSSION: NON-RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS (BILL OWENS, CITY
ENGINEER)
City Eng. Owens reported that he had not yet drafted final form of
above referenced program as yet and he still was contemplating what
Little Rock and Metroplan offer in the way of regulations that would
apply to Jacksonville. A flow chart depicting plat review process
was next presented to membership by Mr. Owens. Membership discussed
inspection of streets in extra-territorial boundary of the city.
Mr. Owens stated he felt the developer would be overly charged if
the City of Jacksonville and the County both charged review fees;
therefore, he said he would work with the County officials on this
situation in order to come up with a fair, equitable solution. He
further reported that the ~±ty · mi~ht annex these extra-territorial
areas at some future date and the city should have control in this
instance -and exercise jurisdiction on inspection of streets. Mr.
Owens said the County basically went along with flow chart.

NON-AGENDA ITEMS: STONEWALL SUB./UNPLATTED LANDS/NO. FIRST ST. AREA:
Chrm. Cavender next introduced a letter dated Oct. 30, 1980 sub-
mitted to City Clerk Gerren from R. A. Giddings, V. P., of Savers
Federal Savings & Loan ,Assn., regarding development of above ref-
erenced subdivision. (NOTE: Comm. Lock had requested at the
last meeting the secretary/city clerk write to developer of
Stonewall Sub., and request information as to future plans for
development of lands facing North First Street)
Mr. Giddings reported, as follows:
EXCERPTS OF LETTER
"The multi-family and commercial properties adjoining North First
Street are presently listed with the Rector Phillips Morse Real
estate Firm for sale. Any zoning change or other variance re-
quested by a prospective buyer to meet his individual needs would
be presented to the planning commission and city counsel pursuant
to law, although that responsibility would rest solely with the
buyer."
"Savers Financial Services, Inc., the owner of Stonewall, has no plans
at the present time to develop any portion of this property for its
own use. All properties, other than residential lands, are currently
listed for sale as stated. The only property that will continue to
be developed by Savers Financial at this time is the residential por-
tion of the undeveloped tract of ground south of Martin Street.
Currently, we have 49 residential lots under construction and as they
sell, other residential lots will be developed."
Membership next reviewed two recently adopted ordinances, Numbers
618 and 613, which directly affect above referenced unplatted lands
facing North First Street that lie south of Martin Street zoned
R-3 Multi-family residential AND C-2 Commercial classifications.
Membership agreed, after discussion on driveway access provisions
of aforementioned legislation and improvement districts possibily
having to be formed by property owners, that the City Engineer would
compose a letter to Savers giving said developer copies of afore-
mentioned documents so they may be aware of these provisions being
required by the City of Jacksonville. Mr. Owens said as ~oon as
laws become effective that a registered letter would be sent in
this regard.
PLAT FEES -1981 BUDGET (STREET DEPT)
City Clerk/Secy. Gerren reported the Finance Director recommended,
and she approved, that starting January 1, 1981, a line item be
set up in the Street Dept. budget for receipt and expenditures in-
volved with plat fees being charged developers/owners of subdivision
developments inside and outside the city limits of Jacksonville.
Secy. Gerren reported that in the past the ·General Fund was receipt-
ing in all the money and the Street Dept. was having to pay out all
monies involved with street inspections. With aforementioned new
system, the city can now keep up with fees and ascertain if they
are adequate to cover inspection expenses. Members approved system.
