Home My WebLink AboutCorrespondenceLance Simms From: Ruoff, Lynn <LRUOFF@cvm.tamu.edu> Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2014 4:25 PM To: Lance Simms Subject: P&Z meeting this evening Lance, I was unable to attend the meeting at the Wellborn Community Center concerning Creek Meadows proposed changes to the land use plans for the land north of Green's Prairie Rd and I will not be able to attend the meeting tonight. However, I would like the P&Z commission members to know that I think the proposed changes are an improvement over the current plans. While high density, single family homes on this land does not conform to the proposed rural character for the area established by the Wellborn Community plan, it is better than the duplexes and 4 plexus currently proposed. I own the land immediately north of this proposed development and, while I would prefer that the land be developed in a manner consistent with the Wellborn Community Plan, I realize that is not going to happen. I am not able to figure out how to e-mail the commission members directly, so please forward this on to them if possible. Thank you. Lynn Ruoff 3733 McCullough Rd.

The trees along the edge of the development will not be disturbed outside of the areas which must be cleared for the road and utilities to be installed. Each homebuilder will clear their own lot at the time the home is built and it will be up to them how many trees they leave in the rear yards. I anticipate the area to be mostly single story homes but there is the option to build 2 story per the Creek Meadows Deed Restrictions.

I have three questions for you. 1) What type of fence will be erected to separate this new subdivision from Turnberry Subdivision? I'm expecting a monolithic fence spanning the entirety of the adjoining property lines, going from Greens Prairie Rd W. to the NE corner of the Turnberry Subdivision. 2) Will there be any attempt at all by the developer to save some of the mature trees along our rear property lines? 3) Do you foresee mostly single story or two story homes being built on these lots?

We pulled this item before the City Council meeting but are queuing it back up for end of year meetings. Since that time I've been able to tighten up the single-family layout, adjacent to Turnberry Subdivision, and have actual on -the -ground survey. The attached PDF is a simple sketch that illustrates the following information: 1. Existing drainage divide (area of Creek Meadows subdivision that at existing conditions drains toward Turnberry); 2. Proposed drainage divide (this area will be reduced with the construction of the street to capture and redirect some of the runoff away from Turnberry); 3. Proposed Rear Yard drainage system (this will be an underground drainage pipe, with yard inlets at all property lines, that intercepts lot runoff and conveys runoff to the south and discharges into the Greens Prairie Road West bar - ditch). Hope this information helps and please feel free to contact me with any questions. Rabon A. Metcalf, P.E., C.F.M. [cid:image001.png@010E199C.21AE80C0] 3800 SH No. 6, Suite 108G <77845> P.O.

A rezoning application has been submitted to the City of College Station by Natalie Ruiz with the IPS Group on behalf of Creek Meadows Partners, LP. The request is to rezone approximately 36 acres (shown on attached map) located near the entrance of the Creek Meadows Subdivision at the intersection of Greens Prairie Road and Creek Meadows Boulevard North, and includes properties on both the north and south side of Greens Prairie Road. The properties are currently zoned PDD Planned Development District and R Rural. The proposed zoning is PDD Planned Development District for single-family and multi -family housing. The area of the proposed rezoning is shown as hatched on the attached map. The dashed line on the map indicates the 200 foot notification area and not the rezoning area. Those of you located within the 200-foot notification area will receive a mailed notice of the public meeting. For all other Resource Team members, the public hearing information is included at the end of this email and is provided as a courtesy. The applicant and property owners would like to invite past members of the Wellborn Community Plan Resource Team and residents and property owners of the Wellborn Community to a 'Neighborhood Meeting' to discuss proposed changes to the Creek Meadows Master Plan and the upcoming rezoning request. The following is from Natalie Ruiz, IPS Group: "Wellborn Neighborhood Meeting Tuesday, July 29th at 6:00 p.m. at the Wellborn Community Center We're hosting a neighborhood meeting to discuss proposed changes to the Creek Meadows Master Plan and an upcoming Rezoning Request. Travis and I initially met with the Wellborn Resource Team during the Wellborn Neighborhood Plan to discuss the 19 acres along the north side of Greens Prairie Road West. Original plans for Creek Meadows were approved prior to annexation as a multi-family/apartment development. We would like to discuss the possibility of modifying the original apartment proposal and transferring densities to the south side of Greens Prairie Road West near the main entrance to Creek Meadows." The PUBLIC HEARING before the Planning & Zoning Commission is scheduled forThursdav, August 7, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. at City Hall at 1101 Texas Avenue, just east of the Texas A&M University golf course.

Good morning! I've briefly looked at the electronic documents that were emailed to Ben. Please submit two copies of the revised site plan and revised building elevations to our department for review. A couple of quick things that I noticed: -All revised (and added) parking spaces need to meet the minimum depth of 20 feet (or 18 feet with a 2-foot overhang). Please check. It doesn't appear that all new parking meets this. -Please be aware that the structure that crosses the fire lane will need to have a minimum clearance of 14 feet and will need to be reviewed further by the Fire Marshal. -Additionally, the materials percentages and legend included on the new elevation sheets don't seem to reflect the materials used on the actual elevations. The minimum masonry requirement and maximum efts/metal is still applicable. Again, please submit the revised plans for site, engineering, and fire review Thanks!

I need to set up a PAC meeting to discuss some potential updates to the Creek Meadows Subdivision. During the Wellborn Area Study, we met with the steering committee and attended a few neighborhood meetings to discuss the Creek Meadows development. There was interest in reducing the density of the multi- family tract (Section 1C, Phase 1). We agreed to reduce the multi -family density to single family - similar to existing lots in Creek Meadows with the understanding we could increase the density in Section 1 A, Phase 3. We need to amend the existing PDD to reflect this agreement and would like a PAC meeting to discuss. Thanks! Natalie
