REZONING SUPPORTING INFORMATION
1. List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change necessary.
This zone change is warranted not due to changed or changing conditions but rather to bring the zoning on the
property into compliance with the land use plan which shows this property as U- Urban.
•
2. Indicate whether or not this zone change is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. If it is not, explain why the
Plan is incorrect.
Yes. It is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan.
3. How will this zone change be compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with
the character of the neighborhood?
This area is largely vacant or has current land uses that are in transition (i.e. single family houses). This zoning to
T- Townhomes is compatible with the future land use of U- Urban of this area.
10/10 Page 2 of 3
4. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the rezoning district requested.
The townhouse use is suitable for this property as long as driveways are to the mar and not to FM2818. This
design element is what is intended for this project
5. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
The current zoning district is R&D-Research and Development The property may be suitable for R&D but it is not
what is intended on the Land Use Plan for this properly.
6. Explain the marketability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
Townhouses(individually sold lots and structures)are highly desirable in the College Station market place.
7. List any other reasons to support this zone change.
Having townhouses that face FM2818(design similar to Broadstone Ranch and River Oaks on Holleman)will help
beautify this roadway corridor. It will provide a nice break to other developments which will occur with parking along
FM2818.
The applicant has prepared this application and certifies that the facts stated herein and exhibits attached hereto are true,
correct, and complete. IF THIS APPLICATION IS FiLED BY ANYONE OTHER THAN THE OWNER OF THE

REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject parcel is shown on the
Comprehensive Future Land Use and Character Map as Urban. Urban is generally for areas
that should have a very intense level of development activities. These areas will tend to
consist of townhomes, duplexes, and high-density apartments. The subject parcel is located �g
in the Harvey Mitchell District. This area includes a large floodplain and significant road
frontage along Harvey Mitchell Parkway South and Texas Avenue. The focus of the district
plan should be the development of an urban area that incorporates the significant natural 4;
features of the area and that incorporates design elements that positively contribute to two
significant entries the City. The Harvey Mitchell District has not been completed but as part
of the Comprehensive Plan Five-Year Evaluation & Appraisal Report it was identified as the 'Ctia'• -
next area to be studied. T Townhouse zoning is appropriate for this land use designation. ,Zo`
2. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and ;n "c‘
with the character of the neighborhood: The area is largely vacant and has current land
uses that are in transition to single family homes.
3. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: T Townhouse is
suitable for this property though driveway access will not be allowed to Harvey Mitchell ,
Parkway South, a major arterial on the Thoroughfare Plan. This design is what is anticipated
iftrIfiriproject.
4. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: R&D
Research & Development is a retired district and was intended for administrative and
professional offices, and research and development oriented light industrial uses. R&D
Research and Development is not what is intended for the area on the Comprehensive Plan
Future Land Use and Character Map.
5. Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The
application states that T Townhouses are highly desirable in the College Station
marketplace as they are individually sold lots and structures.
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use: The subject tract has a 24-inch water line
along Harvey Mitchell Parkway South. Future development of the tract will have to meet the
City's minimum fire flow requirements. The subject tract currently has no sewer access, and
will need to extend the 8-inch sewer line on Harvey Mitchell Parkway South, or 18-inch on
State Highway 6 with this development. The subject tract is not located within a FEMA
regulated Special Flood Hazard Area per FEMA FIRM panel 310F. Drainage will be
reviewed in accordance with the City of College Station Drainage Policy and Design
Standards. The Thoroughfare Plan identifies Harvey Mitchell Parkway South as a six-lane
Major Arterial and is currently constructed as four-lanes with a center turn lane. The amount

of traffic produced by this development is minimal and should not have a detrimental impact
on surrounding roadways.
