Home My WebLink AboutMiscellaneous{ ~5~c.~ ~~ .City of College Station Council Meeting.. May 23,,1996 An ordinance amending brdinance_no. 1.638, the Zoning Ordinance of the city of College Station, TX by adding section 7.23 creating a light industrial zoningdistrict`and specifying requirements within that district. Good evening Mayor, council. My name is Susan Clegg and I live at 9008 Sandstone in the Sandstone subdivision. I am here tonight an behalf. of the. East Bypass Home Owners Coalition. As you may. know, this coalition is made up of representatives from the board of directors from each°of the home owner's associations along the east by-.pass; which includes the subdivisions of Wndwood, Raintree, Emerald Forest, Foxfire, three associations from Woodcreek -~ Shadowcrest,'Stonebridge, and Amberlake - as well as a representative from Sandstone which currently has no home owners association. This represents almost 1200 homes. W~,are pleased to lend our support and endorsement of this new R&D', ordinance tonight. 'This ordinance has evolved out of a series of discussions begun almost a year ago between the HOK consulting firm,. the city Manning staff, Mr. Bowers and his team, and'the coalition. The end product that you have tonight represents many hours of work and a proactive involvement by all instead of a reactive response by a few. What makes this ordinance,specal is that during its development, there were no hidden agendas on anyone's part;. that is, each of us wanted the same thing - a zone that would preserve the atmosphere of the community as one of a progressive and modern community„ one that protects the welfare _ and val~ie of its neighborhoods, and one that would help attract modern companies and businesses to the area. I think we have'. achieved these goals. This new ordinance will allow land to be zoned. for research and development and light industrial businesses that are viewed as compatible with existing neighborhoods, but which were previously only permitted under the heavier M-1 industrial zone. In essence it allows for some of the uses of the M-1 zone while prohibiting many others, including general retail. In addition, it specifies acceptable types of.construction materials, provides for increased building set-backs,: generous buffer and. landscape zones, restricts maximum building heights and floor ratios, limits lighting, noise, and traffic and perhaps most importantly the hours of normal operations. The purpose statement sums it up ncelyz "These uses are those that will meet the performance criteria established in this section and have little or no impact on surrounding, areas, thereby maintaining the character 'and integrity of neighborhoods". While this ordinancehasts roots in the proposed use for a specific tract of land along.. the east bypass, it is applicable to other areas of the city,'and consequently should be used when and where appropriate.- It provides the city with: another option .for consideration when dealing with sensitive tracts of Land. However, as with any new idea, `there may be some unforeseen problems in the future that deal with specific details included in this ordinance.... Should that occur, it is hoped that the city planning staff, along with citizen input, will fine tune it. If adjustments need to be made, let's make them. Let's not abandon the zone classification and its use in favor of other zones less compatble'with the surrounding area. The city, its officials and citizens, have come a long way ._ The workingrelationship that occurred betv~een everyone involved_in the development of this. ordinance is testimony to just how far we have come. Let's not ever go backwards. The experience gained in developing this ordinance can now hopefully, be used toward creating yet another new zone classification - one of.'~mixed use". This too has opportunities to plow new ground, correct past oversights., and move another step forward. College Station has great potential and opportunities, as we all know, but we also know that it can turn into great problems and challenges if not handled in a forward-looking direction. I am pleased to have been a part of this effort and to represent the other members of the coalition that dedicated many hours. The professionalism of the .city planning staff, especially Ms. Jand Key, was of the highest caliber, as was ths.t of Mr. Bowers and his staff. The East Bypass Home Owner's coalition is pleased to support the adoption of this ordinance. 96-106 ARTHUR HARRISON DBA HARRISON HOMES 503 N TEXAS AVENUE BRYAN, TX 77803 96-106 LARRY & KATHLEEN TEVERBAUGH 9225 BROOKWATER CR COLLEGE STATION, TX 77845 96-106 HOLY CROSS LUTHERAN CHURCH 1200 FOXFIltE COLLEGE STATION, TX 77845 96-106 Keith H.
