Box 9960 College Station, TX 77842 Re: Crystal Real Estate Development (CRED) Community Apartments (REZ-PDD) — REZONING (14-00900176) Dear Jason, As discussed we are requesting to following bulk variances for this project. Listed below are the bulk variances that we are seeking for the Cottage of College Station development: Understanding that we must choose a base zoning district for the residential and commercial development upon which we base all variance requests, we have chosen C-3 for the commercial areas and R-4 for the residential areas. Commercial Area Bulk Variance Requests: 1. Allow for reduced required parking at commercial locations within this development to create a more pedestrian friendly environment. 2. We would like to be allowed to develop the commercial area (parcel Fl from the previous PDD) to use the C-3 category and in addition to those uses allowed within the C-3 category we would like to add the following uses from the C-1 category to this PDD for this area: a. Remove all specific use standards from the restaurant category in this PDD b. Drive-thru window c. Hotel d. Night Club/Bar—as conditional use permit only e. Theatre f. Car Wash g. Commercial Amusements h. Health Club w/Outdoor Facilities i. As regards the specific use standards for the fuel sales we would like to have the following items read per the C-1 regulations for fuel sales: i. Item#4—signage- please allow to read as per C-1 regulations ii. Item #7—fuel sale islands- please allow to read as per C-1 regulations iii. Item#8- setback regulations-please allow to read as per C-1 regulations 3204 EARL RUDDER FWY.S. • COLLEGE STATION,TX 77845 • T 979.260 6963 • F 979.260 3564 CIVIL ENGINEERING • HYDRAULICS • HYDROLOGY UTILITIES • STREETS • SITE PLANS • SUBDIVISIONS As part of this request we would be willing to limit the development of Tract Fl to 100,000 square feet of commercial development in order to assure more of a "neighborhood" commercial site. The 100,000 square feet total could be comprised of any combination of the following uses. • Animal Care Facility, Indoor • Art Studio/Gallery • Car Wash • Commercial Amusements • Day Care, Commercial • Drive-thru window • Dry Cleaner/Laundry • Fuel Sales • Health Club/Sports Facility, Indoor • Health Club/Sports Facility, Outdoor Facilities • Hotel • Night Club Bar or Tavern (only allowed as a conditional use) • Personal Service Shop • Printing/Copy Shop • Radio/TV/Studio • Restaurant • Retail Sales/Service • Theatre • Educational Facility, Indoor Instruction • Educational Facility, Primary&Secondary • Governmental Facilities • Health Care, Medical Clinics • Places of Worship It should be noted that uses allowed within the C-3 category but not listed above could be constructed but would not count toward the 100,000 square foot maximum as these are typically low traffic generators. Also it is not intended or desired to have SOB's included on any of these tracts. Residential Area Bulk Variance Requests: 1. Allow for 20' curb radii at intersections to create a more pedestrian friendly environment. As stated in the UDO,the purpose of the Planned Development district is to promote and encourage innovative development that is sensitive to surrounding land uses and to the natural environment. A PDD may be used to permit new or innovative concepts in land utilization not permitted by other zoning districts. Finally,the PD District allows development to vary from certain development standards so long as there are community benefits which outweigh the requested modifications. We believe that this project offers a unique product and its community benefits certainly outweigh modifications being requested.These community benefits are as follows: 1. The detention will be provided in the natural creek areas and designed to retain as many trees as possible. 2. There is a hike/bike trail that will connect to the adjacent development and the future commercial for the area residents to enjoy. 3. The neighborhood commercial being proposed with this project will meet a small commercial need for this area of College Station. The closest neighborhood commercial locations to this part of College Station is either, Rock Prairie Road and SH6, Southwest Parkway or Texas Avenue. This commercial area will be a nice addition to the large residential areas south and west of FM2818 and Wellborn Road. 4. A driveway connection to Place Properties to allow the Place development access to the Holleman signal. Thank you very much.

Box 9960 College Station, Texas 77842 RE: CRED COMMUNITY APARTMENTS (REZ) - REZONING Dear Jason, Attached please find the following: • City of College Station Transmittal Letter; • Memo providing written responses to staff comments; • One (1) 24"x36" copy of the revised Concept Plan; • One (1) 8.5'x11" copy of the revised Concept Plan; • Thirteen (13) 11"x17" copies of the revised Concept Plan; • Thirteen (13) 11"x17" copies of the revised Rezoning Map; and • Traffic Impact Analysis Revisions will follow shortly per email request. STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS NO. 2 Project: CRED Community Apartments (REZ) — (14-00900176) PLANNING 1. Due to the significance of the remaining comments, these items will not be scheduled for consideration at the October 2nd Planning & Zoning Commission and October 20th Council meetings as the mailed public notices have stated. Public notices will be sent again for a future meeting when this item is ready to be forwarded for consideration. RESPONSE: Understood. 2. Revise the label of Holeman Drive to Holleman Drive South on the Concept Map. RESPONSE: This label has been revised. 3. If gating part of the development, label the general gate locations on the Concept Plan. RESPONSE: The gate locations are now shown on the Concept Plan. 4. Provide a revised page 5 of the application to change #8 to state private access easements instead of public access easements. RESPONSE: This revision has been made and a new Page 5 is attached. 1 3204 EARL RUDDER FWY.S. • COLLEGE STATION,TX 77845 • T 979.260 6963 • F 979 260.3564 CIVIL ENGINEERING • HYDRAULICS • HYDROLOGY • UTILITIES • STREETS • SITE PLANS • SUBDIVISIONS 5. Revise the bulk variance letter to state parcel F2 instead of Fl under#2 of Commercial Area Bulk Variance Requests. Also remove the second page of the letter as it only relates to parcel Fl which is the larger commercial area across Holleman Drive S and not part of this rezoning request. Also, add back in the existing Residential Area Bulk Variance Request related to not connecting to Cedar Ridge Drive as this rezoning request is adjacent to that existing street. RESPONSE: These changes have been made as requested. TRANSPORTATION 1. Mitigation must be provided with this development. Please provide a signal warrant analysis for Market Street and Holleman Drive. Assuming signal warrants will be met, signals would need to be installed with this development. If signal warrants are not met with this development, a 3-way stop analysis should be performed. RESPONSE: The signal warrant analysis has been completed and the TIA recognizes that a future signal is warranted at Holleman / Market. The timing and cost participation of the signal improvements is still under discussion with staff. 2. In reviewing the PM peak hour at the intersection of 2818 and Holleman drive, the north and south approaches fall to a LOS F. This development increases the approach delay by 24 seconds and 21 seconds respectively. Individual movement delays are increased as a result of this development. Please propose and analyze mitigation options. Feel free to contact me to discuss possible mitigation solutions. RESPONSE: As discussed, we have indicated in the TIA the mitigation proposed for this intersection. The timing and cost participation of these lane and intersection improvements is still under discussion with staff. 3. FYI-An assessment for Holleman Drive is tied to this property and will be due upon platting. RESPONSE: This assessment has been paid and paperwork showing this payment is attached.

STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS NO. 1 Project: CRED Community Apartments (REZ) — (14-00900176) PLANNING 1. Revise the Rezoning Map to include a vicinity map. Response: A vicinity map has been has been added to the rezoning map. 2. On the Rezoning Map, enlarge the line thickness of the outside perimeter of the request to help distinguish it from other internal lines. Response: This line weight has been changed. 3. Provide the base zoning districts upon which the zoning areas are based and list the meritorious modifications and associated community benefits. Instead of just referencing the previous PDD modifications, they need to be provided with this application as this rezoning would replace the PDD rezoning ordinance for this area. Response: Please see attached letter. 4. The commercial area identified as F2 on the approved PDD Concept Plan is included in the boundary of the request. Revise page 2 of the application to state commercial uses are proposed and include the base zoning district and any modifications associated with it. FYI, F2 was based on a modified C-3 Light Commercial district with additional C-1 (GC) General Commercial uses added. Response: The application has been revised accordingly. 1 3204 EARL RUDDER FWY.S. • COLLEGE STATION,TX 77845 • T 979.260 6963 • F 979.260.3564 CIVIL ENGINEERING • HYDRAULICS • HYDROLOGY • UTILITIES • STREETS • SITE PLANS • SUBDIVISIONS 5. The Schematic Development Site Plan that was provided is to function as the Concept Plan associated with this PDD rezoning. Rename this document to Concept Plan and include the check list of information from page 7 of the application. As the Concept Plan is intended to be a basic generalization of the development, please remove labels for building types, building square footages, unit types, parking counts, parking striping, etc. The Concept Plan is to show the spatial relationship of buildings, parking and other site improvements but being this specific will reduce your flexibility if you want to make revisions as your proceed with development. Please note that the Concept Plan is included in the zoning ordinance as an 8.5"x11" document so text and depictions on it will need to be legible at that size. Response: A new concept plan is now provided. 6. The Concept Plan is to include all of the property within the PDD rezoning request. Show the full boundary on the Concept Plan by including the detention and open space area in the western-most part of the request. If this area does not need to be part of this request, revise the application, metes and bounds, rezoning map, etc to remove the area from the rezoning. Response: The concept plan has been revised to include all area on the rezoning map. 7. The approved PDD Concept Plan shows development being located outside of the 100-year floodplain area. Except for the drive aisle crossing to the commercial area, revise the Schematic Development Site Plan to reduce the encroachment into the 100-year floodplain. Response: As discussed, we intend to have minor encroachments and to re- investigate the floodplain limits. All encroachments will be discussed with staff and we understand that they must be improved. 8. Note 2 of the approved PDD Concept Plan states a (private) trail systems will connect each residential block of development for pedestrian use and will provide a route for both bike and pedestrian traffic to the retail locations. Describe and/or show how this is being accommodated. Response: The trail system is now shown. 9. Show a private cross access easement on the Concept Plan from drive aisle stub in Place Properties development to Cottage Lane. Response: A cross access easement has been shown. 10. Please note that when platting the property, it will need to include a replat of the existing Lot 2R. Response: Understood. ENGINEERING COMMENTS NO. 1 1. No comments at this time. Response: Thank you. 2 TRANSPORTATION 1. Please provide your synchro outputs for the TIA. Response: The synchro outputs for the TIA have now been included in the Appendix. 2. The concept plan for the TIA appears to vary significantly from the PDD plan. Please update the TIA as needed. Response: The TIA has been updated to reflect the PDD plan. 3. Please justify the number of U-turns at the Market Street/Holleman Drive intersection. I assume this is a result of the delays on Market Street. The median is not wide enough to encourage U-turns in this location. Response: The analysis has been updated to show that exiting traffic heading northbound along Holleman Drive will turn left from Market Street instead of making the u-turn. 4. Please propose and evaluate mitigation for Market Street since it falls under an acceptable level of service. Response: In the updated report, Holleman Drive and Market Street was evaluated as a signalized intersection. 5. A deceleration lane will need to be constructed with the proposed driveway based on the volume. Please include this in your recommendations. Response: While the right-turn volumes do exceed City of CS threshold, a deceleration lane here would likely create an unsafe weaving condition in which southbound vehicles from both Holleman Drive and westbound FM2818 conflict with eastbound FM2818 vehicles using the free flowing channelized right-turn bay. The proposed site driveway, currently constructed, is located approximately 105 feet south of the end of the solid striping separating the inside southbound lane and the free flowing eastbound right-turn lane along Holleman Drive. The addition of a third lane for right-turn deceleration may further exasperate this weaving condition. ELECTRICAL COMMENTS REQUIRING IMMEDIATE ATTENTION 1. Most of this project location is outside of CSU certification area. CSU certification extends 500 feet from FM 2818 south along Holleman Drive South. Response: Understood. 2. SITE PLAN/PLAT: Developer will provide CSU with a digital, AutoCAD dwg format, version of plat and / or site plan as soon as it is available. Email to: wdavis ancstx.gov Response: Understood. 3 3. LOAD DATA: The developer will provide load data to CSU as soon as it is available. This information is critical for CSU to accurately determine the size and number of transformers, and other equipment, required to provide service to the project. Failure to provide load data will result in construction delays and, due to clearance requirements, could affect the final building footprint. Delivery time for transformers and other equipment not in stock is approximate 26 weeks. Response: Understood. 4. EASEMENTS: Developer provides temporary blanket easement for construction purposes and upon completion of project must provide descriptive easements for electric infrastructure as designed by CSU. Response: Understood. 5. EASEMENTS: Developer provides descriptive easements for electric infrastructure as designed by CSU, as shown on plat or site plan. Response: Understood. 6. If easements are existing, the developer will be responsible for locating easements on site to insure that electrical infrastructure is installed within easement boundaries. Response: Understood. 7. The following easements will be required: Easements will be procured based on the location of the underground primary as shown on the future site plan and or plat. Response: Understood. GENERAL ELECTRICAL COMMENTS 1. Developer installs conduit per CSU specs and design. Response: Understood. 2. CSU will provide drawings for electrical installation. Response: Understood. 3. Developer provides 30' of rigid or IMC conduit for each riser conduit. CSU installs riser. Response: Understood. 4. Developer will intercept existing conduit at designated transformers or other existing devices and extend as required. Response: Understood. 4 5. If conduit does not exist at designated transformer or other existing devices, developer will furnish and install conduit as shown on CSU electrical layout. Response: Understood. 6. Developer pours electric device pads or footings, i.e. transformers, pull boxes, or other device, per CSU specs and design. Response: Understood. 7. Developer installs pull boxes and secondary pedestals per CSU specs and design, Pull boxes and secondary pedestals provided by CSU. Response: Understood. 8. Final site plan must show all proposed electrical facilities necessary to provide electrical service, i.e. transformers, pull boxes, or switchgears, all meter locations, and conduit routing as designed by CSU. Response: Understood. 9. To discuss any of the above electrical comments please contact Weldon Davis at 979.764.5027. Response: Thanks.
