Streets: Adequate. Flood Plain: N/A _ _ __ _ _ __ Y 7 coMP~NS~ PLAN o~c~v~~s The relevant... Land LTse objectives state:: 1. Protect tie integrity of single fa~milY.. areas...... Thi request would place retail commercial adjacent: to existing single.:famly residential where currently these land uses are .separated by Kyle South. 2. Avoid strip commercial development.. The lot does not have adequate depth for commercial zoning and would continue the strip commercial that currently runs along the north side of Dominik and. abuts existing single .family residential to thee: north at that location. In the past ..the City has received. nolse/lght/odor complaints from the single family area that abuts the existing commercial along the north side of Dominik. DEV~IAPNJ~;NT PC}LIC~[ES: The policies address areas where low intensity residential uses would not be appropriate and yet commercial uses would of be consistent with development policies and refers to these areas as transitional areas. This description fits this particular lot since it has been isolated from surrounding properties by street extensions on three sides, .has commercial uses:.across the streets on two .sides and abuts sin le famil on the fourth side. ~, _g y The policies .state that appropriate uses: in transitional areas would ,include .office commercial uses, neighborhood commercial uses, multi-family uses, conditional uses or a mix of these. RECON~VVIENI~ATIf~N The most appropriate land uses at this location considering adjacent land uses and the size of the lot would appear: to be very limited commercial such as in C-N, A small office: as in A-P, A conditional use such as a small clinic or Duplex / fourplex development consistent with similar areas: along Dominik. The lot has adequate depth of ..off Dominik for C-N zoning and adequate dimension for either R-2 or R-4 development and either a duplex or fourplex could be built within. the current zoning: classification. The applicant has not discussed zoning districts other than ~-1 at this ime. ~.__ ~ ___ S a Access: There may not be adequate sight distance for an access drive location. on Kyle South due to its curving nature. In addition, there is already an access drive on to Kyle from he strip center immediately .across from the Culpepper site. An additional. driveway location on to this curving street would be even more conducive to creating a traffic safety problem, therefore access should be denied to this street. T'he site does not have adequate frontage to grant a curb cut on either Dominik or Puryear according: to the City of College Station Access Management Guidelines, however, access to these: two streets would be considered.
