I spoke with the Capstone people after that twice and he said during the second conversation that he had talked with some people who said that while it is a TNRCC requirement, it had been misinterpreted. Bill Riley just called me back to explain that in College Station, domestic meters do not have to have backflow preventers because we have a backflow preventer program.. So that is the answer - we don't need them here except on irrigation & sprinkler lines.

The Board requested that the same materials not be used since they are not'compatible with this area. Instead of requiring the deficiencies of phase one to be completed as part of the proposed .phase, the Board decided to have the City Planner write an enforcement letter to the property. owner. The property owner must submit a revised landscape,plan or a letter addressing the deficiencies including the new plant material that will be installed.

I made an inspection of these areas with. Terry Jones, the City's Engineering Inspector, on April 1, 1997 and the areas of concern are as follows: 1. The most southerly driveway to this site does not adhere to the required 0.25 inch per foot cross slope for ADA ramps. This driveway will need to be removed and replaced-using the proper cross slope. 2. The most northerly. manhole that was set on the .existing storm. drain between phases 1 and 2 must receive attention. Mr. Jones stated that he has been in contact with the contractor about the condition of the new manhole.. Thepipe that was broken out to,allow access does not meet City specifications and will therefore need to be corrected. The opening is not large enough nor is it properly broken back. There is steel extending out of the pipe that must be removed such that there are no protrusions. 3 . The precast headwall that was. installed in the creek channel does not meet 1;he design criterion established by Municipal Development Group, (NIDG) nor is it in the proper location. Mr. Jones and I measured the distance. from the curb inlet in the parking area to the headwall and found that the pipe extends too far into the creek. This does not allow for the proposed concrete rubble apron to be installed correctly. In order to achieve the correct design location, the headwall will need to be relocated with approximately one (1) joint of pipe being removed. The City has received a detail from MDG that indicates the precast headwall to be adequate. In ..order for the City to accept. this change using the precast headwall, Mr. North Bardell, P.E.' of MDG, must submit the .detail to the City's Engineering Department under his signature and seal, This detail must include he design for the toe-wall as well as how the rubble apron will tie-in to the headwall.

Date: 12/4/96 12:19pm Subject: University Commons 2 So that everyone will know, Jane, Sabine, Jim and I discussed a request made by MDG to relocate the pedestrian access (sidewalk) from the common line between the two phases and place it within the parking area. MDG made this request because they did not want to duplicate the concrete surface by constructing the sidewalk. We decided that to serve the public interests, the sidewalk would need to be constructed from the end of Eastmark to the cree . ~We decided that the pedestrian access within the parking area would not provide a safe point of access and "public" access to the creek would not appear available to the average citizen. 50, to meet the .goals and objectives outlined in the Wolf Pen Creek Corridor Study. we decided that it should not go through the parking area. In addition, we decided to allow "feeder" sidewalks (those sidewalks that are,'not part-of the path system) to be 6 feet in width rather than l0 feet. This however does not preclude the construction of a 10 foot sidewalk within the reserve area. If I left 'anything out, please make those additions. From: Natalie Thomas To: svolk Date:. 12/17/96 9:29am Subject: University Commons II I just spoke with Kent Campbell concerning the WPC dedication area for their next phase of development. They are dedication this area by separate instrument. MDG has told him they have the written description ready; however, he can't seem to get it from them. (Kent seems to think he will have the description & dedication-forms in within the next two weeks.) I agreed to allow Kent to submit a "letter of intent" concerning the dedication area stating that he knows the dedication MUST take place prior to issuance of a C.O. This would allow him to start construction as soon as the civil plans are approved - which MDG says theg will "walk through" today. Kent .assures me that he will get the dedication information to us as soon as possible. Thanks.

The Board met on-site to make its review. During discussion the Board expressed concerned about the condition of the landscaping on the site of the original phase. The Design Review Board was initially going to tie this issue to the certificates of occupancy for this newest phase. Instead they voted to handle this matter through the normal code enforcement process which allows 45 days for the replacement of dead material There are several areas on the existing site of Phase 1 where it appears that dead shrubs were removed. New shrubs should be put in their place in accordance with the originally approved landscape plan. There are also several trees that have died. Many of these were species that do not do well in this area.. You should consider changing species to ones that will survive and cause you less of a maintenance headache. There is also an area where grass is not being mowed and maintained. This is around the large tree that was preserved near the creek. The City will need a revised landscape plan. or a letter documenting any changes in plant material. If you need any help in determining appropriate plant materials please do not hesitate to call. We will be glad to help. There are several staff members in Parks and Planning who are very knowledgeable about local trees and shrubs. Please see that these replacements are made within 45 days of this letter. We appreciate your cooperation in keeping College Station and your project site as attractive and well maintained as possible. Thank you. Sincerely, Jane R.

Therefore, University Commons did not have to pay the parkland fee. University Contimons is in the process of adding a third phase to their development at the end of Colgate. They would like to know as soon as possible if the parkland dedia-ation fee will be required with this third phase. I looked in our files and we do not have any figures on which the original parkland dedication was based. Do you know how many more units can be developed in this subdivision without paying parkland? (I think there were many units left that could be built within that subdivision without parkland, but that was two years ago and I can't remember.) Please let me know what you fmd out.

Only 838 dwelling units have been constructed to date, leaving 185 units to be developed without additional parkland dedication fees.

V Development Coordinator "3c~~~ ~a~ "~ ~.xas ~~~~ ~.lrxiv~:r~.§1~ MEMORANDUM TO: Kent,Campbell, CapstoneDevelopment FROM: Natalie Thomas, Planning Technicia DATE:. October 28, 1996 RE: Questions concerning the IDesign Review Report dated October 25, 1996. In response to your questions that we discussed earlier today by telephone, I have put together this memo to help clarify the following items: (1) The vehicular/pedestrian access at the .end of .the Eastmark Drive cul-de-sac. The accessway should be contained in a "public access" easement. The existing 20' utility easement could. be dedicated as a "public access and utility" easement. Upon acceptance of the accessway, the .City will. be responsible for maintenance of the. paved section.. This accessway should be .constructed from the. existing Eastmark Drive to the minimum reservation line of Wolf Pen Creek. Removable bollards should be installed at the end of the paved section until the minimum reservation area is developed and the accessway is extended. (See the attached bollard information that is copied from page 51 of the. Wolf Pen Creek Master Plan.) _ There is not a formally adopted pavement "standard" for vehicular/pedestrian accessways on private property. However, there are. many sources that we use for. guidelines including the Subdivision Regulations, Wolf Pen Creek Master Plan and Standard Street Specifications..' We encourage you to .submit any innovative design criteria or alternate standards that you would like for us to consider. The following criteria is compiled from the various sources: _ In order to provide a combination vehicular and pedestrian. accessway,. the pavement section hould be at least 10' to 12' in v~~idth. The accessway must be durable and able to withstand .maintenance vehicles.."Concrete provides a -surface which will.: withstand the. traiTic and flooding conditions whereas other materials, such as cinders, pavers, or stone. create maintenance problems." (Wolf Pen Creek Master Plan, page 51) _ The City does have.. a "center drain alley section" (see attached) that is designed to handle maintenance traffic. This design. standard is a minimum. 6" pavement section with #4 bars on 18" centers both ways. This section. has a "V" in the middle to also drain the alley which will probably not be used at this location. This standard can be used as a guide. for pavement thickness and reinforcement. _ Staff is also willing to work with you on developing a standard if there is a drainage design problem that needs to be addressed. At a .recent site visit, staff noticed that some erosion has occurred in he area where the accessway is to be constructed. It is difficult to tell if there is a problem at this location without the completed drainage report; however, ..staff will work with you on any innovative design solution you want to submit. (For example, I have included a "traiUtrickle channel. cross-section from a project in Tulsa, Oklahoma that you may find helpful.) (2) Delaying the construction of the vehicular/pedestrian access. Staff discussed the .possibility of delaying the .construction of this accessway through the posting of a bond or letter of credit until the City develops the creek area. It was determined hat the vehicular access to the creek should be installed with this phase. Since there will be such a large portion of the creek in this area that will be maintained by the City and because there: will. be more drainage structures built to the. creek, the City. will need access to that property for. maintenance immediately. If flooding occurs. or there are problems with the existing or proposed outfall structures, the Cityhas no way to get equipment into the creek area without this access. (3) The dedication of the creek and minimum .reservation area.. to the City. .Please refer to the attached "Easement Information Sheet" for the requirements.. The. completed form and requested information will be required for the dedication area and the public access easement. The City's legal department will prepare .the. necessary documentation once the information for both,dedications is received. The dedication of the minimum reservation area must occur prior to issuance of a building permit. The dedication of the access easement must occur prior to issuance of a .certificate of occupancy. (4) Additional, parking lot screening required in the .Design Review .Board Report.. Please refer to the attached copy of the site plan that shows the additional screening of the parking lot near the most southerly driveway along Eastmark Drive. (5) Landscaping flan Revisions. You requested .that changes to the landscape plan be submitted in written form instead of changing the. submitted plan. Submitting this information in writing without revising the plan is acceptable as long as all of the items outlined in the report are addressed. I hope this memo helps clarify the. report you received by fax earlier this. morning. If you still have questions or need additional information, always feel free to call me at (409) 764-3570 or by a-mail (nthomas@ci.college-station.tx.us).

Halloween, 1996 ~~ RE: University Commons Phase II This project is for the expansion of the University Commons apartment complex located in the WPC corridor at the .intersection of Eastmark and Colgate. The plan submitted is for an additional 120 apartment units. to cover 8.6 acres. I The Planning and Zoning Commission has ultimate approval authority of all plans in the I' corridor. In order to approve a WPC project, the Commission must find that the following goals have been achieved: Minimum ordinance standards Logic of design Harmonious and compatible materials and architecture Adequate provisions for circulation -vehicular and pedestrian and for space utilization East of maintenance The Design Review Board. reviewed the proposal on October 25 with the previous standards in mind. The new phase will match the existing. phase in terms of architecture and colors. 'The Board found that in general, the proposal met the intent of the district. The Board recommended specifically that approval of the site plan be conditioned upon the several changes to the. site plan. These are listed in the.attached DRB report..
