PLANNING
This plat fits the definition of a minor plat that does not need to be approved by the Planning & Zoning Commission, but can be approved administratively by staff. Once we receive a
response to these comments and we have received written confirmation that you would like to change to a minor plat, we will refund the $232 difference in application fees ($932 final
plat - $732 minor plat).
Revise the Vicinity Map to state the street name as Batts Ferry Road, not Botts Ferry Road as currently listed.
Revise the title block to state the owner’s name as James M. Carter, not James M. Cater as currently listed.
Revise both Certificates of Ownership and Dedication on line three so that they say “whose names are subscribed hereto”.
Revise the Certificate of County Clerk on line three to say Official Records instead of Deed Records, as this is a error in the Unified Development Ordinance.
Because this is a minor plat the Certificate of Planning and Zoning Commission should be removed and replaced with the Certificate of City Planner.
A Certificate of Approval will need to be added to the plat because it is in the ETJ.
The title block for this minor replat should appear as:
FINAL PLAT
of the
River Place Subdivision
Phase Two
Lot 15R, Block 1
Being a Replat of
River Place Subdivision
Phase Two
Lot 14A & 15, Block 1
The Original Plat shows a 20-foot dam (V. 4178, P.311) that runs concurrently with the 10-foot pedestrian and sidewalk easement abutting the River Place Lake lot. Please show this easement
on Original Plat and also on the Replat if this portion was not abandoned
The Original Plat shows a 10-foot pedestrian and sidewalk easement running along the shared lot line of Lots 14A and 15 that must be shown in the same location on the replat.
Please note that you, the applicant, are responsible for scheduling the plat for consideration by the County Commissioner's Court and for getting the County Judge's signature on the
Mylar after they approve the plat.
Please note that any changes made to the plans, which have not been requested by the City of College Station, must be explained in your next transmittal letter and “bubbled” on your
plans. Any additional changes on these plans that the City has not been made aware of will constitute a completely new review.

BRAZOS COUNTY
These comments were emailed to the applicant on August 13, 2012:
This office has reviewed a final re-plat of the subject lot – submitted to us for review by City of CS Development Staff.
We do not concur with the proposed Min FF of 228 shown for the subject lot. As mentioned in Note 3 of the replat submittal, a portion of the subject tract lies within the 100 year
Floodplain. The floodplain is mapped as a Zone A and subject to interpolated elevations based on contours. All information available to us show that the BFE follows the 230 Elevation
Contour in the adjoining area. Brazos County has a new Flood Plain Ordinance which went into effect with the May 16, 2012 FIRM’s. Brazos County now requires a 2 foot freeboard above
the BFE.
To be in compliance with the Ordinance, the minimum FF Elevation show for replat of this lot should be Elev 232. Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.
