Also, Stewart said the conditions of access at the. time of approval of the preliminary plat specified to have 2 accesses, one which was to go away when the median is put irr Univ.

Via Fax (713)268-3723 Re; Proposed Baymont Inn on University Drive in College Station. Dear Mike, Below. is a punch list of items that need to be addressed .prior to issuance of a Development Permit and Certificate of Occupancy on the above mentioned Baymont Inn. Development Permit: (Prior to issuance of a development permit, the following items must be addressed.) (1) Issuance of the TxDOT Permit. for the work to be -done in the University Drive right-of--way. (Staff submitted- this permit along with the approved civil site plans on Monday, March 1, 1999 to the local TxDOT offices.) Certificate of Occupancy: (Prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy, the ,following items must be addressed) (1)-Dedicate the off site private drainage-easement for the detention. area. (At .this time, the developer must also include the maintenance entity of this facility.). (2) LOMR must be approved by FEMA. (In discussions with FEMA per Veronica. Morgan's letter to you dated November 5, 1998, FEMA has indicated LOMB approval should be a condition of a C.O. The LOMB has been reviewed by City staffand will be FedEx'd to FEMA on Tuesday, February 23, 1999.) (3) Dedicate the 15' private access easement on the reserve tract for the proposed driveway. (This easement is 'being. returned to you by our Legal :Department. Since this is a private easement that does not contain. anypublic infrastructure,. it is your responsibility to file. Once filed, provide a copy of the easement and/or the volume and page number on the .approved site plan.) (4) Dedicate a 3'0' public access .easement to the creek for maintenance. ~' Baymont :Checklist Mike Harp. Case #98-225 Page 2 of 2 Certificate of Occupancy! (cont.): (5) Dedicate an ofd-site public drainage easement to cover the creek in its proposed location. (6) Dedicate the off-site public utility easement for the waterline.. (Stewart Kling submitted the metes and bounds description and associated drawing of the utility easement. Once the Easement Information Sheet is submitted' with the necessary attachments, staff will process the easement and file it for record.) Once staff has reviewed the architectural plans for the new hotel, I will be able to put together a punch list for the issuance of a building permit. We also suggest having a preconstruction meeting with staff to discuss the off-site elements and how they will impact the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for Baymont Inn. Issues that need to'be addressed are when will the channel be constructed, who will.. do it and how will it tie into the pond work for Levtex, (The pond cannot. be constructed prior to the channel. work because he proposed pond location is `m the middle of the existing creek.)- Staff. has time available on the afternoon of Tuesday, .March 2, 1999 to meet with yourself, a representative of the' Wheeler property and. appropriate engineering staff. If you have any questions or need additional .information, please contact me at .(409) '764'-3570. Sincerely, _~ Natalie Thomas Ruiz Development Coordinator cc: Case Fie #98-225 ICON QLEE STAT P. O. Box 9960 1101 Texas Avenue College Station, TX 77842 Tel; 409 764 3500 LevTex Hotel Ventures 7660 Woodway Drive Suite 460. November 5, 1998 Houston, Texas 77063 Attn: Mtke Harp Via Fax (713) 268-3723: Dear Mike: .Below are ,the .questions that .you asked in your .letter of"October 21; 1998 and our response: 1. Can we get approval for the Final Plat prior to FEMA approval? Yes, according to FF.MA even though this is an unnumbered "A"zone and their regzrlations require, because. of the size of the.' platting„ that this area be studied and submitted to them, we can approve and file the final plat for record prior to their approval of the study. They did say thaf the floodplain line and floodway lines will be subfect to their .approval. .Because of our discussions, I would suggest that such wording be placed on the plat. 2. Can we get a building permit prior to FEMA approval? Yes, due to the topography on the site and the fact that- the .location of the building. is we1L beyond the approximate graphical floodplain line and the proposed studied line FF'~fA has. said that with that information and the height of the proposed building finished floor (+10) we cauld issue building permits. 3. Is this building permit in any way conditional to FEMA approval? If we were to start construction on oursiteand FEMA were to reject the report submitted by Kling; does this have any impact on our site? Could grades change (finish floor, parking lot, etc.)? Could FEMAS response create additional construction cost to our site? Perhaps to all questions. The one item. that FF_MA said that we must disclose to you is that if for some reason your finished floor ends up being less .that one foot above the 100year base flood elevation, as approved by FEMA, then you would be required to floodproof your structure to the-one foot plus elevation. This is pretty far fetched with the fact that your finished floor is now set crt en feet above the proposed 100-year flood elevation, but it is a risk that FEMA said we must disclose. .Horne of Texas A&M University 4. We have been informed by Stewart that the drainage report for FEMA has been returned to you and ..that the remarks you had made on his .previous report were minimal. Has this report beenretut-fied to you? When do you feel. that if will be ready to submit to FEMA? It is rue that we have reviewed the .report to FF'i1~fA some time .ago and that our comments were minimal. No, the report has not been returned to the City as of this writing.. In my latest conversation with Kling Engineering their estimated time. frame for resubmttal at present is unknown. I have :asked for. a time frame but as yet have not received any further information. 5. The .40 acre detention area between our site and the .proposed floodway as defined by Kling. on the Final Plat has been agreed to- be :.purchased by our company.. We were intending to have this platted at a later date.. This. date to be determined when Wheeler develops the remaining tracts. Is this okay with the city:? We will allow a separate instrument easement to cover the detention area with a maintenance entity to be named. The City will need to receive some soz•t of documentation to assure that someone is responsible for the maintenance and what level of maintenance that will include., So, yes we will allow you to plat if at a later date but it will need to have a separate instrument easement on it now. 6. Assuming that we can get Final Plat approval prior to FEMA approval (asked in question 1). Can we amend the Final Plat at a later date to include the detention area so that we get Final Plat approval for the overall acreage? Yes, you can amend the final plat at a later date to add the detention area and if the floodplain and floodway lines have changed from. the: original fried copy. those could be amended as well. 7. If we cannot get Final Plat approval prior to FEMA approval can we amend the Preliminary Plat at a ater date to include the Detention Area so that we can get Final Plat approval for the overall acreage? Not applicable. There is one more bit of information that I will .pass onto you. In discussions with FEMA, it appears that we will need to make a condition of the certificate of occupancy that the LOMB is approved by FEMA. Since. this channel work will most likely be done .prior to the building or at least concurrently with, this should not pose,a problem unless it is not submitted to FEMA`in a timely manner. I hope that these answers help. I apologize for the delay but FEMA has .most all of their mitigation officers in San Antonio helping with the disaster and it took quite a while to get in touch with them.

Below are the (chronological) facts I’ve assembled on the subject outstanding surety: - In 1998, FW Bert and Mae Dean Wheeler Family Trust provided a check to the city in the amount of $15,245.00 for the surety to cover the required 412 LF of 8 inch waterline (along University Drive from Lincoln Ave to Phase 2 (Lot 1, Block 1). This surety was required to file the Final Plat. A receipt records the check was deposited with the City. - The subject Final Plat of Wheeler Subdivision Phase Two (single lot subdivision) was filed on Nov 10, 1998 at the Court House as recorded in Volume 3308, Page 44. This Final Plat was subsequently re-platted (simply expanding Lot 1 and renaming to Lot 1R) and filed on May 28, 1999 in Volume 3490, Page 269. - Development of Wheeler Phase Two did not occur in 1998 or subsequent years as anticipated and the associated 8 inch waterline was likewise not constructed. - In 2005, development was re-initiated on this lot by Kyle Legends I, LP with the AmeriSuites Hotel project. This development determined however that a 12 inch waterline was required for the proposed hotel (along the same alignment as the previously proposed 8 inch). The hotel (now Hyatt Place) and 12 inch waterline were constructed in 2005. (Related note, there was a Development Agreement with Kyle Legends for over-sizing the sanitary sewer line for this project where the city participated $5,454.) - I did not find any reference in the 2005 development files referencing the 1998 surety. Apparently, the development including the construction of the 12 inch waterline occurred without the knowledge of the 1998 surety being held at the city. - City staff in reviewing all surety files and funds now in 2012, has discovered the subject 1998 surety funds are outstanding. Due to the 12 inch water line construction, the 1998 surety is no longer needed by City. - I would suggest the 1998 Surety be returned to developer that provided the funds. 1
