SUBJECI': Agenda Items, June 8, 1978
3 & 4. Mr. Cruse's plans are to rezone and develop a 100-foot wide strip
of to\vnhouses that back up to the residents on Mile Drive. The
remainder of the property is profOsed for general corrmercial. At
the P&Z hearing Mr. Cruse stated the developnent of the ccmnercial
tract would probably be a lO~'l-rise office canplex. This would pro-
bably fit in the A-P (Administrative-Professional) District also,
which might be rrore acceptable to the area redidents, although
they seem to want single family residential only. . The P&Z recom-
mendation is to deny the rezoning request.
9. 'rhe developer's engineo....rs have su:t:rritted a flood plain study of
the area for their project. The City Engineer has reviewed and -
approved the study. The P&Z approved the plat but noted they would
like to see slab elevations of t..'I1e houses on Langford across the
creek at the final plat revievl. 'Yea developer's engineer agreed -
to this. The P&Z also noted that t..'--le City will have to review a.
rezoning application for the tract before the final plat can be
approved because the property is presently zoned C-N, NeighOOr-
hood Business.' .
10. The P&Z approved the plat.
11. The P&Z approved the plat, adding t..l1e same notes concerning sewer
service and easements that are found on the Foxfire plats.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Al Mayo, Jr." Director of Planning ~..
SUBJECT~ Agenda Items, January 4, 1979
Item No.3 ,..- We have no plans from the appl icant for the proposed development.
The A-P could help provide a buffer to the single family area if developed
properly.
Item No.4 -- We have no plans for this proposal. The applicant has been told
they will be needed. They may want a variance to the parking regulations which
will require approval of the Zoning Board of Adjustment. I have advised the
applicant's engineer to prepare two plans, one with and one without a variance.
If you so wish, you could approve the plan with the variance conditional on the
variance approval by the Board of Adjustment.

Proposed "Convenience Stop"at Highway 6 (Texas
Avenue) and East Bypass, West Feeder Road
ReI
~
We find that we will be out of town at the time you will be
considering this matter. ~e are opposed to this development
as are our nei~hbors, evidenced by the petition being submitted
to you. Please consider:
1
History -
I. We purchased our homes with this area zoned R-I and
felt secure in our location and the city.
2. Several times the land was proposed for rezoning.
Basically because the R-I land was sold for commercial
prices and the investors didn't want to lose money.
3. The land was finally proposed A&P right behind our homes
and then commercial. A "pla~' compatable with our homes
(similar to the office park behind Culpepper Plaza on
Puryear Street), was submitted and we reluctantly agreed
to change. The "plan" did not go thru and the land was
again re-sold.
We would like to state here that we are not against change.
We are interested in a beneficial ~rowth plan for both the
City of College Station and our neIghborhood.
Objections to Proposed Site Plan -
I. The "Convenience stop" proposed is planned for large
and small trucks. These would be pulling in and out at
all times of the day and night. The noise and the smell
of burning diesel would be really hard to live with, for
us as well as for the people located immediately across
Texas Avenue.
"
I
I
IV'ny H3, 19H2

2. A "Convenience stop" for truckers is usually located
further out, away from residential areas and does
not detract from the design of the city nor the land
value of homes located therein.
J. Texas Avenue at that location is a two-lane highway. At
present the flow of traffic from 4-lane to 2-lane and
back to 4-lane is already dangerous. Adding 18-wheel
trucks that are trying to negotiate turns in and out of
a truck stop to the congested area would further complicate
an already bad situation.
4. The intersection at the access road and Texas Avenue is
a very dangerous one. Poor visibility from the underpass
and heavy traffic make it very difficult for access.
Several bad accidents have already occurred there.
Adding additional traffic and access areas to this
location would not benefit anyone.
Conclusion -
Our homes are important to us. We invest a great deal of
time, money and energy into them. Right now we are planning
an addition to our own home. This "Convenience Stop" would
nut only be hard to live with, but would greatly detract from
the value of our home if we had to re-sell it. We look to
the City of College Station Mayor, City Council, and the
Planning and Zoning Commission for protection against this
type of development. This site plan would not benefit us
as home owners nor the city design.
Request -
We respectfully request that this site plan be rejected and
that the city initiate rezoning of this property to a residential
zone, compatible with our homes.
Thank you,
$~j vfM~z~
Dr. Wade D: and /r
Gail J. Griffin
P.S. Would you want to live in (or buy) a home with
this truck "Convenience Stop" behind it?

MEMORANDUM
FROM:
Planning & Zoning Commission ~~~
Jim Callaway, Asst. Director of Planning \~\
Case No. 82-132, 8.5 acres C-l and A-P to A- P,
Commission initiated rezoning
TO:
SUBJECT:
On July 1, 1982, the Planning Commission directed the City Staff to
initiate rezoning of the area bounded by East Bypass, Texas Avenue, and
Bernadine Estates Subdivision. This area includes four tracts which
are currently zoned A-P Administrative-Professional and C-l General
Commercial. The A-P area serves as a buffer between the C-l area
and the Bernadine Estates Subdivision.
The current A-P and C-l zoning in this area was recommended by the
Planning Commission on January 4, 1979. On January 11, 1979, the
City Council approved the rezoning with the stipulation that the Mayor
would not sign the rezoning ordinance until a 25 ft. setback was
provided for along the common boundary with the Bernadine Estates
Subdivision. During the rezoning proceedings discussion of the request
included presentations of a proposed project plan for the development
of the area. On March 25, 1932, the City Council approved a resolution
accepting an easement filed February 14, 1979 as meeting the setback
requirement of January 11, 1979.
On June3, 1982, the Planning and Zoning Commission considered a petition
from residents of the Bernadine Estates Subdivision. In this petition
the residents cited opposition to a proposed commercial development in
that area and requested that the Commission initiate rezoning of this
area to a residential classification. The Commission requested land
use recommendations for the area and appointed a committee to work with
the staff. Land use recommendations were prepared for the area bounded
by the East Bypass, Texas Avenue and Krenek Lane. These recommendations
were presented to the Commission on July 1,1982. On August 11,1982,
the land use recommendations were presented to the City Council.
The Council unanimously approved these recommendations.
Memorandum to Planning & Zoning Commission
Case No. 82-132, 8.5 acres C-l and A-P to A-p, Commission initiated rezoning
Rezoni~g proceedings have been initiated in accordance with the
Commission's directive of July 1, 1982. The Commission hearing is
scheduled for August 19, 1982. Notification has been given to
property owners within 200 feet as well as owners of the property
involved as recorded on the tax roll of the City of College Station.
In considering the rezoning of this property the Commission should
address the following three questions:
1. Was the previous rezoning in error?
2. Have changed or changing conditions in the area created
a need for rezoning?
3. Would the rezoning of the property better comply with
the comprehensi ve pl an fOYlthe Ci ty?
Review of the records revel ant to the prior rezoning of this property
indicates that a substantial amount of consideration was given to
a proposed project, a proposed future plat, and the provision of a
25 foot setback along the common boundary with the Bernadine Estates
Subdivision. No reference to the comprehensive plan is indicated.
Since the approval of the current A-P and C-l zoning a 22 + acre
C-l and A-P area has been provided within the study area. This allows
for commercial facilities within the study area at a location with
fewer access and traffic circulation problems. The land use recommendation
as presented to the Commi ssi on and approved by the City Council fiCll'r
this area would support rezoning of this tract to district A-P
Administrative-Professional.
Additional information will be presented at the meeting.

a "plan" which would be compatible with our homes

At that time we asked the City Council if the rezoning
contingent upon the "plan" developing as presented, and
did not develop, could the land revert to R-l. The
this could not be done. Mayor Bravenec did, however,
rezoning contingent upon a 25-ft deed-restriction set-back
he would not sign the rezoning until this setback had been
the courthouse. The "plan" did not develop. In March,
the land had been re-sold again, the deed-restriction
was filed and the rezoning concluded.

PET I T ION
We, the undersigned, are opposed to the proposed site plan
by Haney Oil Company for a "Convenience stop" at the East
Bypass, West Feeder Road and Texas Avenue (Highway 6). We
feel that a truck stop at this location would be a detriment
to our living environment, the value of our homes, current
traffic problems, and the city plan as a whole.
We, therefore, request that this site plan be rejected and
that the city initiate rezoning of this property to a residential
zone, compatible with our homes.
