Maumelle Arkansas Welcome to Maumelle! It is an exciting time to be in Maumelle! We are in the middle of a year-long strategic planning process that will allow residents to decide what the city will be 10 or 20 years from now. Our goal is to have an action plan in place in the first half of 2013 to “Move Maumelle Forward.” Maumelle is continuing to move forward with several improvement projects, including the pedestrian/ bicycle pathway along Maumelle Boulevard from Arnold Palmer Drive to near Crystal Hill Road; a boat ramp at Park on the River; the extension of the wetland trail near the Softball Complex, which includes a wildlife viewing stand; and additional improvements at Lake Willastein Park. New sod and irrigation have been added to the area across the street from the storage bunker, which provides a better place for picnics and festivals. Maumelle residents recently approved three bond projects, and all three are in the design phase with plans to begin construction in 2014. Two projects include roadways: improvements to Crystal Hill Road and improvements and an extension of Counts Massie Road. The third project is a new sub-station for the Fire Department. Maumelle also offers recreational opportunities for all ages through various programs at the Jess Odom Community Center and other Maumelle sports facilities. In addition, Maumelle has nearly 30 miles of pedestrian/bicycle paths throughout the city, two 18 hole golf courses, tennis courts, and numerous other activities throughout the city, including a wide range of programs at the Senior Wellness Center. Maumelle is well known for its volunteer spirit, having been named one of twelve volunteer communities in Arkansas for ten years. If you want to plug in or give back to your community, I encourage you to become involved in one of the numerous civic or religious organizations in our community. It will improve your quality of life, as well as the lives of those you touch. You can find a list of those organizations on our web site at www.maumelle.org. Maumelle’s central location and close proximity to Little Rock, North Little Rock, and Conway allows a diversity of entertainment and educational opportunities, such as concerts, plays and college and professional sporting events that will meet or exceed your expectations. Maumelle is within thirty minutes of several renowned hospitals that offer some of the best medical care available in the country. The Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport is only a short distance from Maumelle, providing easy access to several major cities. We are pleased to have two new industrial partners locate in the Maumelle Industrial Park in 2013. Medline opened their LEEDs facility in June, and Leisure Arts will be relocating to Maumelle, once renovations to a vacant building are complete. Imbicor, one of our existing partners is upgrading with new equipment, renovating their existing facility, and doubling their current team. Take time to drive through the industrial park and see for yourself; we are extremely proud to support our existing businesses, like Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Molex, Inc., Dillard’s, Ace Hardware and many others! Maumelle is full of young people who are making a difference, like the Maumelle Youth Council, numerous Boy and Girl Scout organizations, and many other youth groups. We are especially proud of two of our lifeguards, Andrea Palanca and Buck Zurga, who saved the life of a five year old swimmer on July 15th. We are so grateful for their quick actions and extremely thankful for the full recovery of the swimmer. If you are looking for a home or a place to start or relocate a business, come experience what Maumelle has to offer. We welcome you to discover Maumelle and to enjoy the “Best Living in America!” If you would like more information or need assistance, please contact me at 501-851-2500 or visit our web site at www.maumelle.org.

    Case 4:82-cv-00866-DPM Document 5730 Filed 05/06/21 Page 1 of 68 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS CENTRAL DIVISION LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT, et al. PLAINTIFFS No. 4:82-cv-866-DPM PULASKI COUNTY SPECIAL SCHOOL DISTRICT, JACKSONVILLF/NORTH PULASKI SCHOOL DISTRICT, et al. DEFENDANTS EMILY McCLENDON, TAMARA EACKLES, VALERIE STALLINGS, TIFFANY ELLIS, and LINDA MORGAN INTERVENORS MEMORANDUM OPINION and ORDER Is it time? Yes. With the exception of some facilities issues, the Pulaski County Special School District has substantially complied in good faith with Plan 2000. Subject to the ongoing implementation of its 2018 master facilities plan as previously modified by the Court, the Jacksonville/North Pulaski School District has also substantially complied in good faith with Plan 2000. It is therefore time for both Districts to continue their important and challenging work of educating all students without oversight from this Court, except as specified on facilities. Background. It has been a decade since this Court held a compliance trial in this case. Doc. 4507, 2011 WL 1935332, affirmed in part and reversed in part, LRSD v. Arkansas, 664 F.3d 738 (8th Cir. 2011).

Fifteen witnesses testified, some several times on various areas, and two­ hundred fifty-five exhibits were received. In October 2020, the Court held a two-week trial on JNPSD issues.
