RE: Lot 1 Blk. A, Regency Village, Vol. 874, Pg. 119, Brazos Co. Deed Records,
a.k.a. 600 Dominik Drive, College Station, Texas.
Dear Governing Members:
The referenced parcel consists of a rectangular tract containing 7.84 acres. It is
located on the south side of Dominik Drive (559 feet frontage) and the north side of
University Oaks Boulevard (538 feet frontage), approximately 420 feet east of Kyle
Street South in College Station.
Lehtonen Investments, Ltd., as owner, respectfully requests that the referenced
property, zoned R-6 apartment building\ high density, be approved for an additional 20
apartment units above the permitted 188 apartment units.
The owner has engaged the internationally renowned firm of Brown & Root Building
Company (4100 Clinton Drive, Houston, Texas) to conceptually design and ultimately
build and complete a new apartment project on this site. The owner's premise being
that quality projects can be built only by quality people with innovative ideas and
techniques. The Brown & Root professionals, using the "team approach", provide this
credibility and construction experience with single source responsibility.
The Brown & Root design group has suggested a 208 unit apartment project on this
site. The requisite parking requirement of 564 spaces will be accomodated except for 6
spaces. Importantly, however, is the fact that the 20 additional units will not enlarge the
footprints of the buildings, or encroach upon the greenspace areas in that they will
comprise the third story of six of the buildings. Such buildings, being three story
structures, will have sprinkler systems for addedfire protection. The mix of the two and
three story structures will materially enhance the project design and provide a more
asthetically pleasing living environment.
700 Dominik Drive . College Station, Texas 77840 . (409) 693-POL.O
.. ..
The site is the last major development parcel in the Dominik \ University Oaks corridor.
Our preliminary investigation reveals that public utilities are provided to the site by a 15"
sewerline along University Oaks, a 6" waterline along Dominik and an 8" waterline
along University Oaks. A natural gas line also fronts Dominik Drive. No information
has surfaced to indicate that these utilities cannot adequately serve the planned project
without adverse impact to surrounding areas.
Vehicular access to the site is provided via Dominik Drive and University Oaks
Boulevard. On May 27, 1993 the City Council voted to ban left turns from and onto
Dominik Drive at its intersection with Texas Avenue. We were one of the few property
owners to support the decisional process since it was well within the public interest to
ban the left turns. Mr. Edwin N. Hard, City of Transportation Planner, has opined that
this action, when implemented, will reduce by 1,134 cars per day the vehicles passing
the apartment site. Accordingly, 20 additional apartment units, possibly generating 30
to 60 additional cars, would have a deminimus impact on the Dominik \ University Oaks
thoroughfares.
This apartment project will conform to all other requirements of the R-6 district and will
be compatible with and generally enhance the multi-family uses of adjacent or nearby
properties. As the owner has demonstrated in the past, it fully intends to build and
manage this project within the spirit, intent and objectives of all city ordinances and
codes so as to maintain our reputation and coextensively provide a quality housing
environment for the populace of this city. Again, I respectfully request your favorablE~
consideration.
Sincerely,
Lehtonen Investments, Ltd.

ITEM: Consideration of a request to exceed 24 dweIUng units per acre in an R -6 district.

CJ3-tB-S-
ITEM SUMMARY:. All relevant staff report information is included on this coversheet..
The Zoning Qrdinall.ce allows. densities on R-6 properties to exceed 24 dweIUng units per acre
whenapprovedbyCouncil. Thi~ request involves the vacant 7.84 acre tract located east and
adjacenttotheR-6~ned Polo Club Apartments on Dominik Drive. Ail ~urrounding land uses
aremulti..,fal11ilyresidential. The reqllested density is for 26.5. dweIUng units per acre (20 units
above the 188 allowed at 24 units per acre).
Existing water and sewer are available to the site. At the time of site plan review the applicant
wiU submit data to determine if capacities are adequate to handle proposed densities. If utilities
are inadequate to handle the increase, then it wiU be the developer's expense to improve or
upgrade existing utilities or develop at a lower density. The existing street system is adequate to
handle the requested increase.
According to the City's land use inventory, the average density in this immediate area is currently
21.3 dweIUng units per acre for existing multi-family residential uses. If this request is approved
the overall density in the immediate area wiU increase from 21.3 to 21.9 dweIUng units per acre.
The highest densities that exist within the City presently are in the Northgate area and in the areas
north of SH 30. The individual project with the highest density is in Northgate with a density of
57 dwelling units per acre.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: There is no requirement that this item go through the
Plannihg and Zoning Commission. Staff sees no problem with the request as long as the
developer is aware that any inadequate utility capacity must be addressed at his expense or build
to a lower density. .
F~NANCIALSUMMARY: Fiscal Analy~is shows a negative annual impact of$19,885 if the
pr?~~ty .\Vere lo.developat the maximum allowable density. Fiscal Analysis shows a negative
annual impact of $22,001 if the property develops at the requested density.
OIT)',ATTORNEY RECOMMENDATIONS: NJA
COU~CILACTION DESIRED: Approval or denial of request.
