This is a petition to block a conditional use permit that would allow for the construction of a three-story, conditioned mini-warehouse facility in the C-3 zoned, 1.87 acre tract that is located at 102 S. Rodney Parham Road in Little Rock, Arkansas. The property is located within the commercial district at the West Markham/Rodney Parham intersection. A Kroger store, Red Lobster and Burger King are adjacent to the west.

The momentum behind this effort clearly demonstrates how many residents value the character of our neighborhood. This collective response confirms that our concerns regarding the proposed storage facility deserve formal attention from the planning commission.

A huge storing complex does NOT fit in with the other businesses in that area and would create a stand-out- eyesore along Rodney Parham. It would likely lower property values.

Added traffic with heavy trucks would pose a threat to pedestrians walking on Sunnymeade. Many of the residents walk to Kroger each day out of necessity. They must use the street for foot traffic since the city has not provided sidewalks. I am opposed to allowing any access to the storage facility from the alley drive on Sunnymeade.

There is a storage facility going in just up Rodney Parham in the former nursery next to Starbucks - it seems excessive to have two so close. Also three stories is an awful height next to single story commercial buildings and backing on residential - it will look ugly

I grew up in this neighborhood, and my mother still lives here, so we are here every day. There are already so many storage facilities in midtown and west Little Rock -- I counted twelve, including the ones in west Little Rock. I don't believe it is good planning for this area to approve another one.

I do not want a storage facility put in the space on Rodney Parham by Red Lobster. There will be drainage problems as there already is in Kroger's parking lot and probably in Red Lobster's parking lot. We do not need another storage facility in our neighborhood.

This is not a warehouse area, we have enough storage facilities as is. This community would prefer a business that invites people to come to our area to eat/drink/shop, not just store their stuff. We don't want the lights, crime & ugly aesthetics of a storage facility.

not in my neighborhood!!!! I'm tired of the crime, as our home has been robbed, our security & safety compromised, cars robbed at least 8 times, tired of the foot traffic & tired of our area being so run down. I won't even let my 5 yr old play in the front yard. Such a shame! There are so many other positive businesses that could be a nice, refreshing change to our neighborhood. I hope the RIGHT thing is done for our community!!!!!!
