City Council approved the amendment last week authorizing the Design Review Board (DRB) to make decisions regarding the Gateway Grant program. Your application is scheduled for the next DRB meeting, Friday, October 12th, at 11:00am here in City Hall. In finalizing the report that will go the DRB for review, I have a couple of items I would like clarification on: 1) I have estimates for the Woodcreek Drive landscaping (in which the PIP application was approved) and two different ones for the erosion control around the ponds. I do not have one though for landscaping/trees along the southern property line closer to Rock Prairie Road. Is that something still be pursued? If so, do you know if there has been an estimate done for that? 2) Has the HOA chosen which of the two erosion control options to do around the ponds (i.e. gravel ribbon or bulkhead)? Let me know about these two items. I appreciate your help and hope this will finally wrap things up.

We are focusing on the erosion control of the lakes. 2) Has the HOA chosen which of the two erosion control options to do around the ponds (i.e. gravel ribbon or bulkhead)? ** I will check on this and get back to you. Let me know about these two items. I appreciate your help and hope this will finally wrap things up. Regards, Jason Jason Schubert Staff Planner Planning & Development Services City of College Station Phone: 979.764.3570 Fax: 979.764.3496 From: Barbara Moore To: Hitchcock, Molly Date: 12/5/2007 11:44 AM Subject: Amberlake HOA I called Claire and she said she would get me the information on the estimate tomorrow but it would be after 12:00. Her husband would have to do the estimate and he is out of town. So she said she would get it to me before the end of the day. She seemed to have an attitude and made some snide comments about not giving her enough time. As you saw, I already e-mailed the mayor& city mgmt. about this. Thanks Barbara Moore City of College Station Neighborhood & Community Relations Coordinator 979-764-6262 bmoore@cstx.gov From: Molly Hitchcock To: Jason Schubert Date: 12/13/2007 3:08 PM Subject: Fwd: Design Review Board/Second meeting FYI >>> Peggy Calliham 12/10/2007 4:24 PM >>> Molly, We clarified that it is actually Friday, not tomorrow. Just an FYI. Peggy Calliham Community Relations Mgr. City of College Station P. 0. Box 9960 College Station, Tx 77842 979/764-3499 >>> Peggy Calliham 12/10/2007 8:57 AM >>> Clare, I just wanted to touch base and make sure you and your husband know what to expect in the second round of DRB, I believe it is tomorrow. This is exactly as its name describes: Design Review. There is a landscape architect on this committee who will probably ask a lot of questions so you need to be prepared for that and all questions regarding the design, plan and the cost of those plans that you have laid out. I indicated we will work to make sure it goes smoothly and the committee now knows what is expected of them as a committee. They will be asking the questions they need to know to make an informed decision. If felt the need to also let you know what is expected on your part. I am not sure if you provided Planning and Development a photo of the site with your second set of plans, but if you have one it would be helpful to bring it to give the committee a visual.
