building located at 4090 Raymond Stotzer Parkway, from A-O Agricultural Open to C-2
Industrial Commercial. (99-127)
Senior Planner McCully presented the staff report and said that the subject property is in the process of
being remodeled from a nonconforming service station that was annexed into the City several years
ago to a construction office. The changes made thus faz have fallen under legal nonconforming status,
but the applicant intended to expand the use to include on-site storage of construction materials, which
is beyond the scope of legal nonconforming status. T'he Land Use Plan reflects the area as future light
industriaUreseazch and development. That classification would call for exclusively industrial
development, and the requested C-2 includes several industrial type uses in addition to general
commercial uses, such as those allowed in C-1. 'The industrial uses listed in the C-2 district would be in
compliance with the plan. Staff recommended approval of the rezoning request.
Chairman Rife opened the public hearing.
Mr. Matt Klunkert, 8413 Shadow Oaks, (the owner) explained that this use would be for a commercial
industrial construction company. There would be very little equipment stored on site, and would not
involve any fuel storage. The surrounding properties are owned by Texas A&M University.
Chairman Rife closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Horlen moved to recommend approval of the rezoning request. Commissioner Warren
seconded the motion.
Commissioner Floyd said that he was in favor of the intentions of the applicant. He commended the
applicant for building a nice building, and felt it was an improvement to one of the major gateways into
College Station. His concerns were with the other permitted uses in the C-2 classification.
Commissioner Kaiser was also concerned with what other types of businesses could be brought in if
this business were to relocate.
h'
Commissioner Mooney expressed his concern with security for this business with the storage of
equipment. He felt that intense screening would allow for security and beautification of the
development. `'~
Chairman Rife called for the vote, and the motion to approve the rezoning failed 1-5; Commissioner
Horlen voted in favor of the motion.
Commissioner Floyd moved to deny the request without prejudice. Commissioner Mooney seconded
the motion, which passed unopposed 6-0.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 10: Public hearing and consideration of a rezoning for Sandstone
Addition, Lot 20, a 14.41 acre tract located in the Sandstone Subdivision at the end of Oakwood
Trail. (99-130)
P&Z Minutes December 16, 1999 Page 9 oj12
City Planner Kee presented the staff report and stated that the Foxfire and Sandstone subdivisions
surround the subject tract on the east, south and west, and Sandstone Park on the north. It contains
14.41 acres and lies at the end of Oakwood Trail in the Sandstone Subdivision. Foxfire is zoned A-OR
Rural Residential (minimum one acre lots) and Sandstone is zoned R-1 Single Family although the lots
meet the A-OR dimensions. The developer intends to build lazge (over one acre lots) for single family
development. The land use plan reflects this area for low density single family development. This
density calls for lots ranging from '/2 acre to 3 acres in size. The proposal would contain 91ots ranging
from just over one acre to just over 4 acres. Staff recommended approval of the rezoning request.
Chairman Rife opened the public hearing.
Mr. Bruce Miles, 2710 Oakwood said that he owns the tract adjacent to the proposal. He is concerned
with the lot sizes not matching up with the existing.
Mr. Philip Blackburn, was present to represent Mr. Tony Jones (the applicant). He said that the
intention is to develop upscale estate-like homes. The streets would be blacktop with laydown curbs.
The four acre tract would not be included, and there would be no access to this tract. There is a current
drainage system that would be upgraded to accommodate this development. He explained that Mr.
Tony Jones spoke with numerous people in the Sandstone area. He assumed Mr. Miles was not one
that was spoken to, but was not sure why.
Chairman Rife closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Mooney moved to recommend approval of the rezoning request. Commissioner Horlen
seconded the motion, which passed 4-2; Commissioners Floyd and Warren voted in opposition.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 11: Public hearing and consideration of a rezoning for approximately 7.16
acres located on the northwest corner of Holleman and Harvey Mitchell Parkway from R-1
Single Family Residential to C-1 General Commercial (2.08 acres) and R-2 Duplex Residential
(5.7 acres). (99-129)
Senior Planner McCully presented the staff report and stated that the applicant was preparing the
property for a duplex development with a convenience store/service station at the corner of Holleman
and Harvey Mitchell Pazkway. A preliminary plat showing a new neighborhood street to serve most of
the duplex property is currently under review and will appeaz before the Commission in the neaz future.
The Land Use Plan reflects the tract and the rest of the property' tot he north towazd Luther as high
density single family. However, in the last few yeazs, the development trend for the azea bound by
Marion Pugh, Luther, and Harvey Mitchell Parkway has been infill in the form of apartment
complexes. The duplex portion of the request is compatible with the existing land use pattern in the
azea, that of duplexes, fourplexes, and apartment complexes. The Land Use Plan shows mixed use for
the azea to the south across Holleman and extending to the Wellborn Road intersection. This would
indicate potential commercial uses south of Holleman with high density residential uses to the north.
Therefore, the C-1 portion of the request is technically not in compliance with the land use plan.
However, development policies relating to commercial development would support some type of
commercial use on both sides of this intersection, especially one that would serve the residential
neighborhood. This intersection with Harvey Mitchell is also the most likely location for a future
traffic light, which would further support some commercial uses. Harvey Mitchell is classified as a
freeway/expressway on the Thoroughfare Plan. Access to this type of roadway should be limited to
