APPLICANT INFORMATION: (if different from owner, a complete affidavit shall be required) Name: Natalie Ruiz, Principal, IPS Group 511 University Drive Suite 205, College Station, Texas 77840 Phone Number:846.9259 Fax Number:260.3564 E-mail: natalie@ipsgroup.us PROPERTY OWNER'S INFORMATION: Mr. Mike Butte 2500 West Loop South, Suite 515, Houston, Texas 77027 Phone Number:713.439.7922 Fax Number: 713.439.7944 E-mail: info@z-codevelopment.com COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT REQUEST FORM The following is required if an amendment to the Land Use Plan is requested. Based on the nature and extent of the requested amendment, additional studies may be required. Current Land Use Plan designation: Public& Institutional Requested Land Use Plan designation: Attached Residential Explain the reason for this Land Use Plan amendment: The property is currently zoned R-3 town homes with C-3 light commercial along the frontage. There is also some A-0 along the rear adjacent to Bee Creek. The owner wishes to establish a multi-family residential development rather than town home and retail commercial. To do so will require rezoning that necessitates a change to the current land use plan designation. Identify what conditions have changed to warrant a change in the land use plan designation: 1. TxDOT will no longer allow direct and permanent access to Harvey Mitchell Parkway (2818). This poor access precludes retail commercial from being viable. 2. The Bee Creek channelization project has been completed to eliminate the flooding problems that had occurred in the area. Approval of the LOMR is pending. How does the requested land use designation further the goals and objectives of the City of College Station Comprehensive Plan? 1. The attached residential classification enables multi-family development to occur closer to the University rather then occurring on the periphery of the city. 2. This change enables a rezoning that will eliminate the existing C-1 zoning that would result in a typical strip commercial development. This location is inappropriate for general commercial zoning due to its inadequate depth and the lack of a major intersection. Explain why the requested land use designation is more appropriate than the existing designation. Attached residential at this location considering surrounding roadways and land uses is more appropriate than institutional. Institutional is for schools, churches, hospitals and other quasi- public uses. The current land use plan designation reflected the existing electrical substations. This adjacent property is not owned by the City or the school district or any other quasi-public user.
