Public Hearings
By city ordinance, public hearing notice signs are required to be posted in plain view of the public on or near the existing property line at least seven (7) days prior to the date of the public hearing. Public hearings are typically held for requests including conditional use permits, variances, rezone requests, and annexations. See the chart below for information regarding upcoming public hearings. For further questions, call Community Development Services at 479-268-4980.
To establish a comment on the public record about a project below, please email the listed City Planner associated with the project as public comments must be received in writing. Please note: the public is highly encouraged to attend all Planning Commission meetings, including Work Sessions, rather than just the listed Public Hearings below.
