You have received this correspondence as you have been identified as a property owner in the area of interest, one of the commercial tenants, or a property owner near the identified area. Please refer to the attached Small Area Map depicting the boundary of the area of interest outlined in white. The stakeholder meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, December 11, 2013 at 6:00 PM in the College Station City Hall Council Chambers located at 1101 Texas Avenue. Background and Purpose The commercial properties in this area developed several decades ago and are part of the heritage of the College Hills area. Due to their age, they do not meet many of the zoning and development standards that are required for commercial sites today. As a result of these non-conformities, reinvestment and expansion opportunities have been limited. As part of the Eastgate Neighborhood Plan that was adopted by City Council in June 2011, one of the action items was to implement strategies to increase the viability of these properties, particularly with parking spaces as most of them are located in public right-of-way. As appropriate, an overlay could reduce or waive development requirements for this area while also creating other measures that would help maintain the general character and scale of these properties that serve as a gateway to the College Hills neighborhood. The properties are zoned GC General Commercial and an overlay would not change the allowed uses but would provide supplemental standards and exceptions. Next Steps After receiving input, City staff will draft ordinance language and make it available for comment. Once finalized, property owners and meeting participants will be notified of the public meetings {likely in Spring 2014) where a proposed ordinance could be considered for adoption during public hearings by the Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council. If you have any specific questions or are unable to attend the meeting and would like additional information please contact me at {979)764-3570 or via email at jschubert@cstx.gov.
