RE: Zoning and Property Use - 1500 Nantucket
Dear Ms. Mayfield:
In response to your letter dated March 6, 1997 regarding the status of the property
located at 1500 Nantucket, my research has provided the following information:
It appears from your letter and the Appraisal District tax records that there has been illegal:
.subdivision of lot 3 sometime since the filing of the 1984 plat. Therefore, a replat will
need to be submitted and approved prior to any building, .repair,: plumbing or electrical
permits being issued by the City. However, a replat of this lot would result inlots that do
not meet the minimum lot size requirements of the A-O zone. The only way to legitimize
this situation is o receive a variance to the lot size requirements in A-O prior: to filing: a
replat of the property, or seek and receive a rezoning to some classification with. smaller
minimum lot size requirements (prior to filing the replat). This latter approach might be
difficult due to the factthat the.land useplan shows this propertyfor low.density
residential uses and there could potentially be opposition from the Nantucket. residents for
anything other than residential zoning.
There is no guarantee thatthe Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA) would grant the lot
size variance, however this process is shorter and less expensive than a rezoning.. If the
ZBA does grant a variance to the lot size, .then you could. market the property for
continued use as a office* as long as no expansions occurred without ZBA approval.. In
addition you could market the property: for any use permitted. in the A-O zone, however,
once the use is changed from an office to another permitted use, the non-conforming
status is lost and only permitted A-0 uses would be allowed from. that point forward. It
could no longer be used for an office without a rezoning.

*To help you further, the following is an excerpt from books of development definitions we use in
classifying uses. '
1. "Office - A building or portion of a building where services are performed involving
~ predominately administrative, professional or clerical operations."
2. "Office - ...used for. conducting the affairs of abusiness, profession, service, industry,
government and generally furnished with desks, tables, files, communication equipment, The term office
is almost generic without the necessity of spelling out all' the functions. that may be carried out. in an office.
Indeed, as modem technology expands, office functions include .tasks that in the. past would have been
considered production, industrial or commercial.. For example, desktop publishing, high speed data `
transmission, and large varieties of research are:now carried out in offices."

Re: Zoning and. Property. Use
1500 Nantucket
Dear'Ms. Key,
I am writing this letter of request as a Realtor, representing a property
owner and hopefully seller of the above stated property.
The owner of this property is Joseph A. Falcone and the legal address of
the property is Lot 3 (pt. of.) Block 13, Nantucket #2 Brazos County, Texas.
I have had this property listed since March e5, 1996 through today's date.
We have lowered the price from $148,000 to $99,900 trying. to sell the property
as either an office building or residential. We have. had more interest as office
versus residential. Under the new city zoning, it is unclear o me as a Realtor
how I will be allowed to represent this seller's .property,. office or residential or
both. This building has never been used as residential and until a few months
ago (about 3 or 4) it was continually used as office pace for several commercial
users. It has a breakfast type bar with a microwave, a small under the counter
refrigerator and a sink but this is only. a small area and no room to really expand.
We could sell as residential but with the Nantucket office nexf door, which
has. at least three businesses officing there and these two buildings are on the
same lift station for sewer. 'Without'expensive modification, this building.. may be
li~it~d t3 office ~~ace.
Ms. Key, this is a great building with a beautiful view and I am continuing
to market it as both residential and commercial office building, but 1 am unsure of
what to tell potential buyers which will .hurt the seller's progress of selling this
property.
Please let me know, if you can, which direction I can go with. this property.
Respectfully,
~, ~ J

DO YOU WANT A NEW NEIGHBORHOOD IN NANTUCKET?
Phyllis Hobson filed a new plat for the last phase of the
Nantucket Subdivision at~College.Station City Hall on Wednesday
16`h July 1997.
This new plat shows a plan for 115 new lots to be carved out of
the 60 undeveloped acres that .exist at the front of Nantucket
Drive on the left hand side going in. Her plan is to drive two.
new roads to the left of Nantucket Dr. to serve`52 city sized
lots of ~a acre each, and to use the entrances on the access roads
to serve 52 lots which will. be '-~ acre each. The lots will be sold
for between $30-40,000, each home will be a minimum of 2000
sq.ft. To .see what this means to us, compare the two plats that
follow. Number 1, filed in 1992 shows the low density I acre
lots that were planned for this area. Number 2 show the 115 new
lots. .
In the other 600 acres of the Nantucket Subdivision there are
only approximately 240 other lots, so with I15 new ones she is
increasing the number of lots by almost SOg. Moreover, she is
putting those lots in an area that is only 10~ the size of the
rest of-Nantucket!- Hence, she is proposing to build a new
neighborhood in Nantucket. The reason is obvious, lot sales will
generate between $3-4,000,000.
In-the plat filed in the courthouse and on record, the area she.
is proposing to subdivide shows a minimum lot size of l acre, and
thus only 25-35 new iots.. This is the minimum tot size possible
.for lots on~a septic system. However, the reason that smaller
..lots are now. possible is that she petitioned College Station to
annex all the land at the: front of Nantucket. last year. This
succeeded, and she then entered negotiations to bring the city
sewer that ends in Pebble Creek across Highway 6 to Nantucket.
Funds have been alloca ed by the city to begin work on extending
the sewer in the fall, so that it will be in Nantucket by, the
summer of next year making this new development possible.' Both
the sewer and new neighborhood construction will involve years of
.trucks, dirt, and trash, and there is no doubt that Nantucket
drive will be torn up for months as the new development is
created. Do you remember how bad it was when the road was
destroyed last time?
The question is what do Nantucket residents think about this?
Few people know about it because we have- no homeowners
association: as you may know this is controlled by Ms. Hobson. A
few of us who -found out have got together, and we are presenting
this information to you row as we have to quickly decide what to
do. Ms. Hobson`s proposal goes before the College Station zoning
commission on August 7t'' tsee below) .
Ps a group of concerned Nantucket residents we want to prevent
this new development from going ahead based on two main concerns:
First, we bought lots out here on the basis that Nantucket would
b e low density housing that used to mean a minimum of 1-2 acre
lots. We believe that the new development would alter the whole
• character and feeling of Nantucket. In fact, a111~the initial
°~ advertising for Nantucket was based on the idea that the rights
of property owners would be protected, and the large lots was the
principal selling point...When you bought your lot what were you
told? Did you believe that something like this could happen?
Second, we believe that property values would be severely hurt-
possibly by 10-20~. Nantucket's-claim'to fame is its large lots
and country atmosphere. If we lose this, we will become just one
more city neighborhood-and subdivisions like Pebble Creek which
have good roads, schools, etc. will always have an advantage over
us. Moreover, new developments are planned to the South of us.
Third, it is not clear to u~ that these lots would sell. People
who want a small lot would probably prefer to live in Pebble
Creek, not backed up to noisy Highway 6. Why would they want to
live in Nantucket which has no amenities? We are all aware of
the. failure of the Nantucket retirement home concept. Why would
it be .any different for a city lot development? This whole area
could become an eyesore for years to come, further affecting
property values..
At ..present,. two Nantucket residents who are .attorneys are
studying the plats filed of record in the courthouse,: deed
restrictions, etc., to see if there are any legal grounds for
opposing this new development, and there does appear to be some
-hope here. .There is also the issue of .selling large lots to
buyers, with the understanding that homes in the neighborhood
• will be a minimum of two. acre s, and then turning around and
selling small lots when all~the large ones are sold.
• ~ • If •we can act .legally we are going to have to raisemoney to
fight 'a court case. We will need to form our .own homeowners
committee and devote time and money to fighting this but also
.planning what we think the future of Nantucket should be.
beyond the legal path, however, there is the zoning issue. As it
was explained to us, if Nantucket residents .can demonstrate that
they are solidly opposed to this, and if they can present a
compelling case to the city council as to why it should not go
.through, she may not be able to get the rezoning permission that
she needs to go ahead with the proposed new development.
The planning and zoning commission meets on August 7th probably
in the. College Station .conference center on George Bush Drive to
discuss this issue.. Their recommendation will be presented to
the full council on August 28"' probably at city hall.
Obviously, given the speed. at which the zoning issue is moving we
need to meet to talk and decide what to do. Unless enough people
are prepared to do something nothing will happen. Therefore we
propose that we meet at the-park on the lake in Nantucket next
Saturday, 26~' July at gam to discuss these issues and how to
proceed. In the meantime, we encourage you to talk to your
friends and neighbors in Nantucket both to make sure. they know
about this. issue and to talk about the future of Nantucket.
I can't give you much more information that I have in this
letter, but please call me, Gareth Jones at 690-6712, if you have
anything you wish to discuss before this meeting.

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WAS SUBMITTED IN
SUPPORT OF THE PROPOSED. NANTUCKET
DEVELOPMENT
JULY 23, 1997
TO: NANTUCKET RESIDENTS
A'LETTER FROM GARETH 70NES HAS CROSSED MY DESK THAT NEEDS SOME CLARIFICATION
AND`CORRECTION. THIS IS A LETTER YOLT'MAY' HAVE `RECENED: '''COPIES ARE ALSO POSTID
AT THE MAILBOXES.
IN HIS LETTER, MR'JONES REFERS TO A "PLAT NU11iIBER Y ; WHICH HE STATES IS FILED AT
THE COUNTY COURTHOUSE. THIS IS NOT TRUE.: ONLY FINAL PLATS ARE FILED WITH THE
.COUNTY AND CITY. THE PLAT THAT HE SHOWS WITH HIS LETTER IS ONE OF MANY
PRELIIVIINARY PLATS WHICH MY ENGINEERS GIVE TO THE CITY AND COUNTY AS WE WORK
THROUGH;THE DIFFERENT'PHASES OF THE DEVELOPMENT. ONLY ONE OF THE MANY
PRELIIvIINARY PLATS WILL BE CHOSEN AND DECLARED THE FINAL PLAT TO BE RECORDED
FOR EACH PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT. THAT IS WHY NANTUCKET CONSISTS OF PHASES I, II,
III, IV; V, PELICAN POINT, SNUG HARBOR I .SNUG HARBOR II, KENSAII, POINT AND'LEISURE
ISLAND.
THE PLAT NUMBER l .THAT MR. JONES DESCRIBES IS A PLAT SHOWING COMMERCIAL AND
ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONAL LOTS. THIS IS AN AREA. THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN SET
ASIDE FOR LIGHT-COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT.
` WHENNANTUCKET WAS ORIGINALLY PLANNED, IT WAS TO HAVE A 19.4 ACRE COMMERCIAL
DEVELOPMENT WITH A;CATFISH RESTAURANT LOCATED AT THE NORTH ENTRANCE (MISTY
LANE).' WI-IERE PELICAN POINT IS NOW LOCATED THERE HAD BEEN PROPOSED ON THE
MASTER:PLAN A TENNIS CONDOMINNM PROJECT OVERLOOKING THE LAKE. WHERE' MY
FORMER HOME IS LOCATED THE MASTER PLAN SHOWS A TOWNHOME PROJECT, .INCLUDING
ALL OF SNUG HARBOR I AND II.
AS THE'ECONOMY CHANGE&FROM YEAR'TO YEAR, EACH SECTION OF`TI~ UNDEVELOPED
MASTER PLAN MUST BE ADDRESSED. IN OUR LATEST REVIEW WE HAVE REMOVED FOUR OF
-THE SEVEN PLANNED STREETS IN THE RETIREMENT AREA,. REDUCING THE DENSITY IN THAT
REVIvED AREA FROM 47 LOTS TO 7 LOTS; EACH LOT BEING APPROXIMATELY ONE-ACRE IN
SIZE..
MOVING TOWARD HIGHWAY 6 AND SOUTH OF THE ENTRY, MY NEW PRELIIvIINARY PLr1N HAS
DONE AWAY WITH THE COMMERCIAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONAL AREAS,..
REPLACING IT WITH SINGLE FAMII,Y DWELLING SITES.'
I HAVE BEEN IN REAL ESTATE IN THIS COMMUNITY FOR 31 YEARS, AND I CAN ASSURE YOU
THAT THE VALUE OF ALL RESIDENTIAL HOMESITES WII.L BE BETTER SERVED BY MORE
RESIDENTIAL HOMESITES NEARBY THAN COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT NEARBY.. THE
RESIDENTIAL HOMESITES THAT BACK-UP TO HIGHWAY 6 (PHASES 11 & 12) ARE 240 FEET
1502 Nantucket Drive College Station, Texas 77845 (409) 690-3000
+~ b
DEEP. I WII.L BE RESTRICTING THE BACK 75 FEET TO 100 FEET. (THAT PART OF THE LOT
NEAREST THE HIGHWAY) TO BE-LEFT WOODED WITH NO FENCING OR STRUCTURES TO BE
PLACED ON THAT PORTION OF THE LOT. THIS WII.L LEAVE A BEAUTIFUL WOODED LOOK TO
NANTUCKET THAT YOU NOW SEE, AS OPPOSED TO THE CLEARING OF COMMERCIAL LOTS
FOR A CONVENIENCE CENTER, ETC.
MR. JONES' LETTER ALSO STATED THAT NANTUCKET HAS NO PROPERTY OWNERS'
ASSOCIATION. NANTUCKET HAS A PROPERTY OWNERS' ASSOCIATION. IT WAS
INCORPORATED AND FILED. WITH THE SECRETARY OF STATE IN 1987. WE HAVE PAID OUR
' FRANCHISE FEE.YEARLY AND HAVE A CPA PERFORM.OUR IRS REPORTS YEARLY.
I HAVE APPOINTED A STEERING COMMITTEE TO,BEGIN IMPLEMENTATIONAF THE
CONVERSION OF MY MANAGEMENT TO THE PROPERTY OWNERS' MANAGEMENT. IN THE
NEXT FEW WEEKS YOU WILLBE RECEIVING AN ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THIS.COMMITTEE
REGARDING A MEETING TO ELECT FIVE DIRECTORS, WHO WILL APPOINT THE OFFICERS OF
THE POA. THIS CONVERSION WILLBE COMPLETED SO THAT OFFICERS,'COMMITTEES AND
'THE BUDGET'CAN BE IN PLACE FOR JANUARY 1,:1998.
I HAVE:WORKED VERY HARD'IN THE LAST FIFTEEN YEARS TO.DESIGN, PLAN, AND BUILD A
"HALLMARK" SUBDIVISION; "ONE THAT YOU AND I CAN BOTH BE PROUD OF NOW AND iN THE
FUTURE. IT WILL TAKE SEVERAL MORE YEARS TO COMPLETE, AND I WILL BE IN MY OFFICE

'~ Re Application by Ms Phyllis Hobson- for replattin~ portions of Nantucket Subdivision
Greetings;
The'purpose of this letter is to lend support to the,. plans by Ms. Phyllis Hobson to replat
E~ portions of the Nantucket subdivision.
My wife and I have been residents of Nantucket for about 4 years, having moved into our
~ current residence-in August of 1993... Ms. Hobson was the Realtor who participated in the
purchase of the lot where our residence is located.
It has been our experience that Ms. Hobson has consistently acted in the best interest of
the residents of Nantucket. This is .certainly reasonable since her role as,a developer of
home sites depends on the home sites being a net asset to both the potential buyer and to
the community. at-large. In fact, Ms. Hobson counseled me on occasion to respond to
neighborhood situations in a way that was the best for the neighborhood while it did cost
me additional over other strategies.' I have always found her counsel,to be :valid and
.insightful
While most of us in Nantucket prize the country. atmosphere that we enjoy, our subdivison
is in the direct path of the future growth of College.. Station.. So growth will occur in the
Nantucket area. The best strategy for the current residents of Nantucket is to manage the
growth in a way to preserve. and. enhance the atmosphere of the neighborhood.
~ It is understandable that people would prefer the area under discussion to not have. any.
~i development. This is an unreasonable position. Ms. Hobson has substantial investment
in the property and for her to not realize any income. from that property would not be
reasonable.
The area that is being proposed for replatting is near Highway 6 and as such is less
' desirable property than most.. of us in Nantucket currently own.. It is unlikely that a
potential buyer would put the large investment into a country home like what many of us
.have done..: Therefore, this property could easily become commercial (strip centers, etc.:),
storage facilities (which are popular), high density apartments, or perhaps something that
is even less desirable. The proposal is a viable. way of balancing. the needs of the
community and the developer.
~.
8 ~..b
'., ~

w"
Ms. Hobson's proposal would substantially increase the population. of the area and place
increased loads on the streets, etc. But the increase would be less than any of the other
viable alternatives. Please:.note that I do not. consider'no development: to be viable. The
'~ additional load on the streets is a matter that does need the attention of Ms. Hobson. and
.the City of College Station, but it appears to me that this;problem is under control.
In summary, I support what Ms. Hobson is proposing primarily due to my confidence in
her. I have reviewed various .letters that have been distributed to the residents and I see
no problem with any of the proposals that I have seen.. Ms Hobson's proposal creates a
', win-win-win scenario for the developer, the residents, and the City of College Station.

Dear I ardes & Gentlemen:..-
It has come to my attention Chat the commercial area along the SH 6 Eton
the Nantucket Subdivision is, the subject of re-platting and re-zoning. As aehomeow er
in'Nantucket Two 1 '
u d like
to express my opinion.
When placing a contract on our home in 1991, I reviewed the recorded plat of Nantucket
in the County Clerk's. office .and Brazos County Appraisal District. I noticed the
commercial area along the frontage: road. of Highway 6. I envisioned the potential of
future commercial development similar to that along the entrance to Shenandoah and
South (Yaks brine. This did not concern me due to my location on the western side of
.the su6dvision;,however, I believed at some point in time it could'disturb the continuit
of the neighborhood, y
'~ I viewed the. proposed re-plat of this secfion of commercial ~~, ~ residential usage when
visiting with Ms.. Phyllis Hobson. L applaud hec' foresight in instituting this char e. It
is 'my opinion that this will uphold the conformity of he subdivision sus g
marketability of the area and, .mares ~ ~ fain the
pecifically, individual homes within'rhe :subdivision.
i The implementation of the natural greenseaped buffer zone between the new section and
~ the access .road is an excellent idea,
~I
Yn summary, I support Ms. Hobson's efforts to re- Iat the r
commercial to residential. ~' P ~~ section from

From:.Glen Carter
Subject: Nantucket Subdivision Re-plat Meeting
-My name is Glen Carter, I am currently building a home in the KensailPoint tract which is
part of Nantucket. I cannot attend the scheduled meeting for Thurs. Aug. T~. I am writing
.this letter to express my feeling onthe matter.
In June of 1992 I purchased 9.6 acres form Nantucket.. subdivision and re-plated and
~~ renamed the tract as Kensail Point. The tract backs up to the existing Nantucket Offices.
At the time I purchased the land Phyllis Hobson fully disclosed to: me her intentions of the
future build out of the `area between my .tract the: Hwy. 6. She .indicated that there would
be a restaurant and other. commercial sites available along Hwy.6 which was currently
plated as commercial use. I was fully aware when I purchased my tract that there could be
commercial properties along the frontage of Hwy. 6 from the daann, south.
In support of what Phyllis is now trying to do, I believe that it is in he best interest of the
home owners of Nantucket to allow Phyllis to re-plan the above mentioned land for
residential use omy and eliminate the possibility for any commercial properties in the
Nantucket subdivision. My vote is to allow Phyllis to move forward with the re-plating
project while acting in the best interest of the Naa~.ucket Home owners..
Thank yam.
Sincerely,

THE FOLLOWING :INFORMATION WAS SUBMITTED IN
OPPOSITION TO THE PROPOSED NANTUCKET
DEVELOPMENT
' '~~ DO YOU WANT A NEW NEIGHBORHOOD IN NANTUCKET?
Phyllis Hobson filed a new plat for the last phase of the
Nantucket Subdivision at~College Station Gity Hall on Wednesday
16th July 1997.
This new plat shows a plan for 115 new lots to be carved out of
the 60 undeveloped acres that exist at the front of Nantucket
Drive on the left hand side going in. Her plan is to drive two
new roads to .the left of Nantucket Dr. to serve 52 city sized
hots of '~ acre each, and to use the entrances. on the access roads
to serve 52 lots .which will be ~ acre each. The lots will be sold
for between $30-40,.000, each. home will be a minimum of 2000
s q.ft. To see what this means to us, compare the two plats that
°follow. Number 1, filed in'1992 shows the low density Z acre
lots that were-planned for this area. Number 2 show .the 115 new
lots.
Tn the other `600 .acres of the Nantucket <Subdvision -there are
only approximately 240 `other':. lots, `so with 115 new ones she is
increasing the number of lots by almost 50~. Moreover, .she is
:putting those lots in an area that is only 10~ the size of the
rest of_Nantucket! Hence, she-is proposing 'to build a new.
neighborhood in Nantucket. The reason is obvious, lot sales will
.generate between $3-4,000,000.
In-;the plat filed in the._courthouse and on record, the area she
is proposing to subdivide shows a minimum lot size of l acre, and
. thus only 25-35 new lots.. This is the minimum lot size possible
. for to s on_~ a septic system. However, the reason that smaller
lots are now possible is that. she petitioned College Station to
annex all. the land at the front of Nantucket. last year. This
succeeded, and she then entered negotiations to bring the city
..sewer that ends in Pebble Creek across Highway 6 to"Nantucket.
Funds have been al ocated by the city to begin°work on extending
the sewer in the fall, so that it wily be in Nantucket by the
summer of next year .making .this new development possible. Both
the sewer and-new neighborhood construction will involve-years of
trucks, dirt,. and trash, and there is no doubt that Nantucket
drive :wall be torn.. up for months as the new development is
created. Do you remember how bad it was when the road. was
destroyed last time?
The question is what do Nantucket residents think about this?
Few people know about it because we have no homeowners
association.: as you may-know this is controlled by Ms. Hobson. A
few of us who found out have got tsgether, and we are presenting
this information to you row as we have to quickly decide what to
do. Ms. Hobson's proposal goes before the College Station zoning
commission on August 7"' (see below) .
Ps a group of concerned Nantucket residents we want 'to prevent
this new development from going ahead based on two main concerns:
First, we bought-lots out here on the basis that Nantucket would
be low density housing that used to mean a minimum of 1-2 acre
dots. We believe that the new development would alter .the whole
a° character and feeling of Nantucket. In fact, all~the initial.
advertising. for Nantucket was based on the idea that the rights
-of property owners would be protected, and the large lots was the
principal selling point.. When you bought your lot what were you
told? Did you believe that something like this could happen?
Second, we believe that property values would be severely hurt-
possibly by 10-20~. _ Nantucket's claim to fame is its large lots
and country atmosphere. If we lose this, we will become just one
more city neighborhood and subdivisions like Pebble Creek which
.have good roads, schools, etc. will always have an advantage over
us. Moreover, new developments are planned to the South of us.
Third, it is'not clear to us that these lots:wouid sell. People
who want a small lot would probably .prefer o live in-Pebble
..:.Creek, not backed up to noisy Highway 6. Why would'they,want to
live in Nantucket .which has no amenities? We are-all: aware of
the failure of the Nantucket retirement .home. concept. Why would
it be any`dfferent forea city lot development? :':This whole area
could. become an eyesore for years to come, further affecting
property value's.
At-present, two, Nantucket residents who are :attorneys are
studying the.-plats filed of record-in the courthouse, deed
restrictions, etc., to see if here, are, any legal grounds for
opposing this;-new development, and there does appear to be some
-hope here. There is also the sue of selling large Tots to
buyers, with the understanding` that homes in °the neighoorhood
will be a minimum of two acres, and then turning around and
selling. small .lots. when all~the large ones are sold.
If ~we can act legally we are going to have to raise money to
fight a .court case... We will need to form our own homeowners
commi tee and-devote time and -money to fighting this but also
planning what we think the future of Nantucket should be.
Beyond the legal .path, however, there is the ,zoning issue. As it
was explained: to us, if,Nantucket residents can demons rate that
:...they are solidly.opposed to,ths,_ and. if. they can. present a
compelling case to the city council as to why it should not go
hrough,- she may -not be able to .get--the rezoning ;permission that
she needs to go ahead with the proposed new ;;development.
The planning and zoning commission ;meets on August 7`h probably
in- the College Station °conference -center on George Bush. Drive to
discuss this issue. Their recommendation will be presented to
the :full council ,on_ August 28`h x;robably at city hall.
,Obviously, ,given the speed_at::which the zoning issue is: moving we
need to meet to `talk and decide what to do . Unless'.. enough people
are prepared to do something nothing will happen. Therefore we
propose that we meet at the park on the lake in Nantucket next
Saturday, 26~ July at gam to discuss these. issues and how to
proceed. In the.-meantime,. we encourage you to talk to your
friends and neighbors in Nantucket both to make--sure they know
about this issue. and to talk about the future of Nantucket.
I can't give you much more information that I have in this
letter, but please call me, Gareth Jones at 690-6712, if you have
anything you wish to discuss before: this meeting. _

MEMORAleTDUM
TO: Planning & Zoning Commissi n
FROM: Jane R. Kee, City Planner
RE: Nantucket Master Plat an zoning
BATE: August 12, 1997
As you will recall, at the last P&Z meeting a motion to table consideration of the master
preliminary plat failed. There was some confusion during the meeting as to the effect of a
tabling of a plat:` The°State Statute requires that action be taken onplats within 30 days of
when a plat is formally filed with the:City. -This date of "formal filing" is not defined. The
statute refers only to final plats. It does not address preliminary plats. The City's local
ordinance calls for action within 30 days of formal filing whether consideration is of a
preliminary plat or a final plat. Tabling is not considered an action. The only actions are to
approve,'approve with conditions or deny. A denial does. not preclude a developer from
going onto Council for final consideration. Another motion to defer action to the next
P&Z meeting was made and approved. Therefore, the Commission must take action on
this plat at he2lst. meeting or it is considered,automatically approved. The item does
not call for a public hearing or any notification and it is at the Chairman's discretion
whether to allow any public comment on this platting issue.
The Commission also tabled consideration of the rezoning request of the 6 acre ract
located. in the Nantucket area, at the last P&Z;meeting This item does require a public
hearing and proper notification. The public hearing:was..opened and closed at hat last
meeting: 'There has been no advertisement for another public hearing before the P&Z.
The Commission must vote to take this item offthe table for. consideration. Then the
Commission may discuss the item, make a motion for approval, approval with conditions,
denial or another'tabling. There has been no additional public hearing advertised,
therefore, it is not advisable to allow public input again on this item. There will be another
public hearing advertised when this item. goes before City Council.- It will not go forward
to Council until the P&Z makes a recommendation.
As a courtesy, staff mailed out notices of this P&Z meeting. The notices stated that there
will be no public hearing. on the rezoning: and that it is at the Chairman's discretion
whether to allow comment on the plat. A copy is included with this memorandum.

DATT: flugust 1~, I997
SUBJECT: Revisions to the Master Plan of Nantucket as cansid~red and tabled on august 7,
1997.
The Master Plan has been revised in order to melt tl,e concerns expressed on August 7, 1997 at
the P&Z meeting by the neighborhood. We have met as many of those concerns as possible as
described belowa
1. 1Lccess to Nantucket Drive has been restricted by deleting two streets from Nantuelcet
Drive and reducing the number of lets on Sandollar Cove.
2. A continuous 7~ Toot buffer is provided for the whale length along Highway C.
3, A 40 i~~ot buffer has. been provided along Nantucl~ct Drive i~rom the existing landscaped
area to the rear of the first Iot fronting on SandctIlar Cove.
4. All the property within tl~e city Iinuts now is renamed South IIampton and will not be a
part ofNantucket Subdivision or Nantucket T~Iozneowner r'~ssociaton. This will eliminate
the right to use Nantucket facilities_
5. The new plan loses six lots. Tlus makes tho grass acreage of. the area within the city
limits 2.13 Iots per acre.
We withdraw the zoning request currently tabled due to the changes of the Master Plazl. The new
zozling request will rezone tl~e entire land that is within the city iiznits shown on the new Master
plan rrotl~ ao to Rl.
The previous Master Plar- oF65.26 acres had a total. gross density of 2.36 lots per acre. This new
Master Pian reduces the density to 3.?7 Lots per acre.

Dear Madam or Sir:
This plat represents the last portions of Nantucket to be developed. All previous phases were
developed in accordance with College Station E. T. J. standards and under Brazos County
regulations. Streets were developed under'the County guidelines aThe i ht d ay w dths vary
Now this Master Plan is a blending of E. T. J. and Clty standards. g
from standard City policy due to conveyance of flooding in the right-of--way and to allow
drainage where storm sewers are restricted:
We request variances on street size per right-of--way width (8-G.10) and sidewalk requirements
as per right-of--way width (8-M.1) as follows.

and commercial and office along highway: Intention is to change to all single
family development.
Annexed into the City last year. `Developer's intention - to build out remainder of
what was part of the Nantucket. Subdivision with residential lots that will partly be
in the City Limits and connected to City sewer through an impact fee line.
No impact fees approved by the City Council for this area at this time.
FIRST PLAT TO PNZ
MPP with lot sizes ranging from 1/4 acre to just over 1/2 acre was submitted to the
PNZ at their 8-7 meeting.
Plat showed 3 streets accessing Na~itucket Drive. After much: opposition to the
smaller lot sizes and much discussion, action on the plat was deferred until the
next meeting to give the residents oaf Nantucket and the developer more
opportunity to resolve differences.
REVISED PLAT -density map
By the 8-21 meeting changes had been made to the plat:
No access to Nantucket. Drive,
Landscape buffers along the highway and Nantucket Drive,
Subdivision name was changed to South Hampton so that lots would not be
apart of Nantucket nor allowed to use private facilities,.
But density remained the same. with a loss of only 3 lots.

-~ DENSITY CALCS.
,~
Overall gross density in Nantucket right now, not including the Leisure
Island section (an area devoted to smallet~ retirement lots on private
streets) averages 2 acres per lot.
Leisure Island averages very small lots at .17 acres per lot.
Average gross density of the new phases is .46 acres per lot.
Overall. avg. density of all existing and proposed phases is approximately
1.4 acres per lot.
LAND USE PLAN
Low density single family development -density range of .5 to 3 acres per
dwelling unit.
Overall average density of Nantucket with the proposed new phases falls within
this range.

a1PPOSITION
Opposition came from Nantucket residents and centered on the smaller lots being
proposed. Residents perceived a change in the character of the neighborhood with
the small lot sizes.
Residents also felt that Nantucket had always been advertised as a large lot rural
single family subdivision and that smaller lots were contrary to this representation.
Residents felt the integrity of their neighborhood would be violated with the
change to lots this much smaller.
They did indicate at they final hearing that 1/2 acre lots, although smaller than
those presently in Nantucket, would be more desirable.. Those .minutes. are in your
packets.
This plat was denied by the Planning & Zoning Commission (5-2 vote) at their
~ August 21st meeting.

RECOMMENDATION
Approval due to compliance with the land use plan and the fact that the average
.density falls within the acceptable range shown on the land use plan as well as
approval of the sidewalk variance request and street variances .(noted in your
packet) with the following comment:
pplicant requested varianc to sidewalk r uirements in order to discourage ~~
r idents of this subdivisio from moving into nd through Nantucket. App-licant
als requested variance to the street specificati (refer to Engineerin
comm s . Staffs orts both variance requests.. ~/`$
_~
This plat can be developed only once an acceptable zoning classification is
placed on the. property. This plat does not meet the minimum requirements
of the current A-O district.
R-1 single family zoning w veld a this development, but wou d also
allow much smaller lot s es than pro osed. The City would b obligated to
approve any future cha es in the pl as long as changes me t the R-1
restrictions. t
The A-OR district requ'~res minimum acre lots but this does of meet the
applicant's needs.
The PUD zoning is th only district w ere the zoning-and plat re tied
together and thus th only one where's changes to the plat w uld have to
come back before b th PNZ and Counci through the public he ring
rocess: These ch nges would be part o rezoning and there ore, both
.dies would hav more discretion in revie and considerati It does not
ap ar that thi plat as configured could meet City's P
requi s.
This is not a public hearing item nor an item that requires notification. However,
the person representing the residents ofNantucket was notified of thin meeting two
weeks ago and there are individuals here who I'm sure would like to address the
Council. There were petitions that are not in your packet that were submitted in
opposition prior to the first PNZ meeting containing 76 names. They state
opposition to the rezoning that was original submitted and later withdrawn and the
original plat. There were no additional written petitions submitted at the 8-21
meeting when the revised plat was considered. These petitions do not have the
effect of requiring more than a majority vote of Council.

Council Action Options: Approve the preliminary plat as submitted or with
conditions or deny the plat with" stated reasons for denial. Council may defer
action but local ordinance requires that Council must act within 45 days of PNZ
action or the plat is considered approved. PNZ acted on August 21, 1997.
October 5, 1997 would be the 45th day from that action.

' Section 4 describes when Plats, Prelim. Plats and Master Plans are required.
~ These changes require that property be platted prior to development
In the past, plats have been required only where there was a property division
taking place. This does not allow the City to require the developer to extend
certain infrastructure in compliance with the.Comprehensive Plan. Exactions of
this kind can be achieved only through the platting process.
Section 4 further states that no permits or utility service will be granted until
platting has occurred
l~ There is a compliance section added stating that improvements. must be
constructed at the time of development (Section 4-G)
Proposed language in Section 4 E further clarifies what happens when a
development is proposed and there is inadequate infrastructure capacity. It states
that either the develop pays for improvements, waits for the City to do so, or enters
into a development agreement with the City for .cost participation.
A final proposed change deals with the timing for action on preliminary plats and
master preliminary plats and plans. Section 6-B.3.4. changes the time for action
from. 30 days to 90 days. This will allow the Commission flexibility to table a
preliminary plat when there. are major planning issues to be resolved or additional
information that needs to be researrhed and presented.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Councilman Dick Birdwell
FROM: George K. Noe, City Manager
DATE: May 1, 1998
RE: South Hampton Concerns
e~~
You asked that I provide you with a response to a number of the issues that were raised in Phyllis
Hobson's letter of Apri17, 1998 regarding the South Hampton Development and the solution that
was reached with her that enabled her to proceed.
In the first section of Ms. Hobson's memo, she describes her discussions with staff regarding the
extension of wastewater services to .her development. Although I would question some of the
details of her description of the summer 1996 meeting, Ms. Hobson's summary of the outcome is
accurate. She indicated that she wanted to develop South Hampton to higher, more urban
densities and would anticipate it being an R-1 level. She would need to have wastewater services
to make such densities possible. She discussed possible cooperative efforts. I indicated that past
policy allowed for service only. inside our City limits and that the area would have to be annexed.
We further suggested using the impact fee process for .funding the line since such a method
ensured equity of participation on the part of all who benefit from the line. It was noted that the
impact fee line would have to be approved by City Council. We closed with an understanding
that Ms. Hobson would request annexation and that the City would proceed with work to
establish an impact fee area to establish the needed wastewater line to the area. There was no
discussion of water service issues at that meeting.
I would state for the record that staff followed through on its commitment to Ms. Hobson in this
regard. The impact fee studies and hearings were performed and the staff recommendation was
consistent with our discussion with her. The Council chose to approve something less than that
request. Instead, the final decision was to require Ms. Hobson to pay for the extension of service
under Hwy 6. This decision concerned her. She also was concerned that I did not object to
Council's .decision. I did elect not to comment further during the Council debate of this issue.
We had made the recommendation as promised and Ms. Hobson was getting 90% of what she
had asked for and I had no reason to restate the staff position. That was a judgment call on my
part and I'm sorry if that decision upset Ms. Hobson at that time.
P. O. Box 9960 1101 Texas Avenue College Station, TX 77842 Tel: 409 764-3510
The other major concern expressed by Ms. Hobson related to the water service questions. All of
us who have been involved with this project admit (including Ms. Hobson) that we didn't spend
time discussing the water service issues earlier because we just didn't recognize it as a problem.
In point of fact, we should have seen it coming giving the uniqueness of the situation. The area
is served by Wellborn Water and Bryan electric and has no municipal wastewater save that
provided by the Nantucket private plant. Staff notes show that water service and fire flows were
discussed at an April, 1997 pre-development meeting. There was no follow-up on that
discussion by the developer, her consultauit or City staff. The issue did surface in January as
work on the. final plat and construction plans were underway. The City's position pursuant to
past Council policy was that the area would have to receive water service from the City of
College Station. This issue came. up during a meeting between staff and the Wellborn Water
Supply .Board and it was generally concluded .that the area should be served by the City. since
Wellborn was (is) not prepared to service at urban standards with required fire flows. I truly
believe that Ms. Hobson expected to be able to utilize Wellborn for this development. She
explored options for City of CS connection (one down the west side. of Highway 6 and one
crossing under from a line that runs on the .east side of Highway 6), she found he cost to be
prohibitive for her'development.
Ms. Hobson. did attempt to have a meeting with various staff members on February 10. It was
coordinated by MDG. Jim Callaway did arrive late due to a prior meeting running late; Mark
Smith was delayed because of flooding problems that occurred with a storm event earlier that
morning. Neither Bill Riley nor Veronica Morgan received anotice/invite. The meeting .did not --
produce any resolution of the issues. I was contacted and asked to arrange a meeting to include
the Mayor. and .various staff members to discuss Phyllis' concerns on the wastewater extension
decision and the use of City utilities. I indicated that I would be pleased to have a meeting that
would include her'folks, the .Mayor and myself. The issues I had been told were to be discussed
were Council policy issues and the staff members were not in a position to make any change so
that their presence' would not be productive. Ms. Hobson elected not to hold a meeting with the
Mayor and I. Instead, she began to explore the process for deannexation.
Mayor McIlhaney and I met with Ms. Hobson and representatives of MDG (including North
Barden) on April 21. At that time, it was proposed by MDG that the City serve South Hampton
"through" the previously constructed lines that were now part of the Wellborn system.
Customers would be City of College Station customers with a meter at the entry to the
development, enabling the two of us to net out the South Hampton usage. It was also suggested
that the area could meet the necessary fire flow standards under that scenario. I agreed to go over
this approach with staff and to let North Barden know of the response the next afternoon.
In visiting with staff the next day, I found out that this idea had been discussed only once and
had been rejected because it was believed that Wellborn would not agree. After review, we
responded to Mr. Barden that the City ~~vould agree to serve through the Wellborn system if
service wasmetered to allow for net water use to be determined, the customers would be College
Station customers, the service would come from the lines installed to City .standards and
inspected by the City, the. subdivision would meet all the fire flow .standards and that the
Wellborn Water Supply Corp.. agree to that arrangement. That position was communicated
to North Barden on Apri122. He arranged a meeting that included several members of City staff
(Bill Riley, Jim Callaway) and representatives of Wellborn Water Supply Corp.. After much
discussion, the representatives of WWSC (under pressure. from Ms. Hobson and somewhat
reluctantly) agreed to the arrangement. With the ability to provide water service in this way,. Ms.
Hobson was .prepared to move forward with her original project. To that end, she 'withdrew her
petition for deannexation.
I personally .believe that we had these problems with this particular development because the
developer believed that she could utilize Wellborn water and we did not make our .questions
regarding water service known early on. This was discussed during our April 23 meeting and
generally agreed to by all the parties. This area represents a unique situation in that the area is
part of Wellborn service territory but it has lines that are built to a higher. city standard. As a
staff, we have noted the difficulty that we had in this case and have agreed that'..` we need to
review our policies and practices relative to water service to make sure that we do not have a
recurrence of this problem.
I hope this is responsive to your request. If you have any further questions, please feel free to
contact me.

Re: Variance. Request for Master Preliminary Plat of Nantucket Phases 6, 7, 8, 8A, 8B, 9, 10, 11
& 12 and Oversize Participation.
Dear Madam or Sir:
This plat represents the last portions of Nantucket to be developed. All previous phases were
developed in accordance with'College Station E. T. J. standards and'under Brazos County
regulations. Streets were developed under the County guidelines as no curb and with bar ditches
Now this Master Plan is a blending of E. T. J. and City standards. The right-of--way widths vary
from standard: City policy due` to conveyance. of flooding in the right-of--way and to allow
drainage where storm sewers are restrictedl.
We request variances on street size per right-ofway width (8-G.10) and sidewalk requirements
as per right-of-way width (8-M.1) as follows:
Street R.O.W. Width Pvmnt Width Sidewalk
Mariner's Cove 70' 38' 1 side only
Sand Dollar Cove 70' 38' 1 side only
Sand Dollar Cove 50' portion 2T None
Ebbtide Cove 60' 27' 1 side only
Windrift Cove 60' 27' 1 side only
Cranberry Court 60' 2T 1 side only
Cranberry Court. 50' portion 2T None

Sanitary Sewer will be considered. for oversize participation from Alum Creek to this Master
Plan. Also, any line that needs,to service adjacent areas through this subdivision will be
considered.
Currently .there is no public sewer to Nantlacket. The sanitary sewer proposed to run along Alum
Creek .from Highway 6 to the existing city main has not been sized, located as to exact position,
or any depths determined. Any developer reimbursements or oversize participation will follow
prior. to final platting.
