Project: THE BARRACKS PH 1 (FP) - 08-00500164
PLANNING
1. The metes and bounds of the plat do not close. Please revise.
2. The bearing and/or distance to GPS Monument #117 is not correct. Please revise.
3. Remove zoning labels from all properties.
4. Please be aware that on future applications, the Minimum Submittal Requirements are to be
accounted for in full without notes stating items were submitted under a different / prior
application. Each application is to stand alone and continuing this practice will result in
future applications being considered incomplete.
5. As requested, Staff has reviewed which parkland dedication requirements (fees) apply to
this project. Though a Comprehensive Plan Amendment application for this property was
submitted prior to the January 1, 2008 effective date of the current parkland dedication
ordinance, our Legal Department has provided an opinion based on a review of state law
and applicable case law that Comprehensive Plan Amendment applications (and
Rezonings) do not "vest" a project. Therefore, the fees supplied from the Parks Department,
based on the current ordinance, are correct.
6. Please note that any changes made to the plans, that have not been requested by the City
of College Station, must be explained in your next transmittal letter. Any additional changes
on these plans that the City has not been made aware of will constitute a completely new
review.
