RECOMMENDATION
TO THE
PINE BLUFF BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT
SUBJECT: Variance request to install a fence within the front yard setback at 3002-3008 N. Midland Drive.
APPLICANT: Mack Milner (Security Mini-storage Inc.)
ZONING AND LAND USES: I-1, Light Industrial
ZONING: North: I-1, Light Industrial LAND North: Warehouse Use South: I-1, Light Industrial USE: South: Vehicle Repair East: I-1, Light Industrial East: Vehicle Repair West: I-1, Light Industrial West: Warehouse Use
REVIEW COMMENTS
Applicant request approval to place a fence at locations along the front property
line as indicated on the attached drawing. City ordinance on fences sets out
standards for fence placement in all zones including industrial. That section states : 1. In order to maintain clear vision lanes for vehicles and pedestrians, no opaque faces shall be permitted
within ten (10) feet, in any direction, of the following points:
(i) At the intersection of a driveway and sidewalk (or front property line if there is no sidewalk).
(ii) At the intersection of a driveway and public right-of-way.
(iii) At the intersection of any two driveways.
2. All fences and walls shall comply with paragraph (b) of this section (visibility triangle).
3. No fence or wall shall be located within one (1) foot of a sidewalk.
Based on what staff can ascertain from the drawing submitted, the request is to
install a fence along the north property line at the east and west property line with
the remaining portion in the middle open for vehicular traffic to the building and
gates which exist. That being the case, it appears that the request would meet code
with the Board’s approval.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval subject to the fence standards noted above.

This application comes before the Board of Zoning Adjustment
RECOMMENDATION
TO THE
PINE BLUFF BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT
SUBJECT: Variance request to use a metal storage container as storage at 4101 W. Barraque.
APPLICANT: Chetan Patel ZONING AND LAND USES: B-3, Highway Commercial
ZONING: North: B-3, Highway Comm. LAND North: Martha Mitchell Exp. South: I-3, General Industrial USE: South: Child Learning Ctr. / Tyson shop East: B-3, Highway Comm. East: Restaurant - Vacant West: B-3, Highway Comm. West: Vacant
REVIEW COMMENTS
Applicant requests a variance from the restrictions of the ordinance limiting the use
of metal containers as accessory buildings. In the ordinance it states the following:
Semi-truck trailers, railroad cars, tents, yurts, canopies, portable storage containers, mobile
homes, manufactured housing, portable offices, or recreation vehicles and campers, whether
or not on a chassis, are not permitted as accessory buildings; except that railroad cars may be
permitted as accessory buildings in commercial or industrial areas with an approved
variance by the board of zoning adjustment.
The definition of a variance is attached to the end of this recommendation. The
beginning of the variance section reads, “ a relaxation of the terms of this chapter
where such variance will not be contrary to the public interest and where,
owing to conditions peculiar to the property and not the result of the actions
of the application, a literal enforcement of the ordinance would result in
unnecessary and undue hardship.
Planning staff believes there is a conflict in the ordinance. In the definition
section as underlined and italicized above it mentions the variance application
allowance; however, in the Variance requirements section of the code it limits
variance requests to height, area, size of structures, size of yards and open spaces.
In staff’s opinion this application does not meet any of the five criteria for
granting a variance.
VARIANCE AGENDA ITEM #2 4101 W. BARRAQUE
SEPTEMBER 29TH, 2020
Historically, staff has been opposed to the location of metal containers (box cars
and truck trailers) in commercial zones and as a matter of fact the commission
has upheld staff recommendation on at least 2 other requests in commercial areas
due to visibility, appearance and impact on the surrounding properties.
RECOMMENDATION
Planning staff does not recommend granting of this variance.

VARIANCE AGENDA ITEM #3 721 S. WALNUT
SEPTEMBER 29TH, 2020
This application comes before the Board of Zoning Adjustment
RECOMMENDATION
TO THE
PINE BLUFF BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT
SUBJECT: Variance request to build and occupy a new commercial building prior to development of the parking lot at 721 S. Walnut.
APPLICANT: Patricia Hargrove ZONING AND LAND USES: B-4, General Commercial
ZONING: North: B-4, General Commercial LAND North: Church garden / Vacant South: B-4, General Commercial USE: South: Day Care / Residence East: B-4, General Commercial East: Commercial West: B-1, Neighborhood Bus. West: Residences
REVIEW COMMENTS
This request is to allow Southeast Arkansas Economic Development District
permission to delay installation of permanent hard surfaced parking and allow
occupancy of a newly constructed building prior to that parking being provided.
City codes require that a Certificate of Occupancy be obtained from the city
indicating all codes (including parking) have been met. In most new construction
situations, there is no displacement of staff as in this situation. However, while the
old building is being demolished and parking installed, operations will continue at
the same site.
Planning staff questions whether this qualifies as a variance request under the
code; however, it was also unable to find any relief for the situation. The applicant
will be out of compliance with the parking temporarily only. Allowing occupancy
of the building prior to this installation brings up one question – after the building
is occupied and the permanent parking is in the process of being completed, where
will staff park?
RECOMMENDATION
Staff will recommend approval of the request but suggests the applicant provide for staff parking
during parking lot construction.
