Development Engineering
Item: Consideration of a Preliminary Plat for the Gateway Ph 2 (PP) located at
1401 University Drive E. (0-232).
Applicant: Miller, Danny
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the final plat with the
following conditions. There needs to be only one access drive for the entire
5.700-acre tract. There needs to be access through the subject tract that serves
both the R-5 tract to the north and the A-P tract to the west. There needs to be a
100' landscape buffer between the C-13 and R-5 tracts.
Item Summary:
• This property is a 5.700-acre tract, to be platted as two separate lots. It is
part of the 25.566-acre parent tract.
• The applicant intends to build a hotel on the eastern most lot, Lot 1. There is
no use proposed for the western lot, Lot 2, at this time.
• It is zoned as C-B, business commercial.
• The subject property is bounded on the:
North by vacant R-5 zoning to the College Station city line;
South by University Drive (TxDOT ROW) with office uses across the road;
East by Gateway Phase I (zoned as C-B also, most of which is currently
vacant, except for the Exxon station, Cheddar's and The Texas Roadhouse);
West by a vacant A-P zoned lot.
• The Lot 2 contains mostly floodplain but is still considered developable
towards the front of the lot on University Drive. The rear of the lot contains
part of the access easement necessary to access the R-5 zoning to the north.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations:
• The City's Land Use Plan classifies this area as Mixed Use. The layout of the
tract accommodates uses that comply with the mixed use concept.
• University Drive is depicted as a major arterial on the Thoroughfare Plan.
• There will not be any Parkland or Open Space Dedication.
• At this time, because of the widening of University Drive by TXDOT, the
developer will not be required to install sidewalks on University Drive. The
TXDOT project will include sidewalks on both sides of University Drive.
• This preliminary plat complies with the Master Preliminary Plat that was
approved in October of 1998.
• There is no rezoning required.
Item Background: The subject property was rezoned from R-1 to R-5 in 1995
along with the 20 R-5 zoned acres to the north. At that time, the intent was for all
of the R-5 area to become a single multi-family development. In 1997, the

property was rezoned to C-B, which essentially disconnected the future multi-
family property from any street frontage. That rezoning included 4 conditions,
three of which need to be shown on the plat at this time. There needs to be only
one access drive for the entire 5.700-acre tract. There needs to be access
through the subject tract that serves both the R-5 tract to the north and the A-P
tract to the west; and that there needs to be a 100' landscape buffer between the
C-B and R-5 tracts.
Budgetary & Financial Summary: There is no oversized participation involved
in this property.
Commission Action Options: The Commission has final authority over the
Preliminary Plat. Options regarding this item are as follows:
• Approval with conditions
• Denial
• Table only at applicant's request

• Only one access drive for the entire 5.700-acre tract.
• Access through the subject tract to serve both the R-5 tract to the north and the A-P tract to the
west.

He explained that this property is a 5.700-acre tract, to be platted as two separate lots and is part of the
25.566-acre parent tract. The subject property was rezoned from R-1 to R-5 in 1995 along with the 20
R-5 zoned acres to the north. At that time, the intent was for all of the R-5 area to become a single
multi-family development. In 1997, the property was rezoned to C-B, which essentially disconnected
the future multi-family property from any street frontage. That rezoning included 4 conditions, three
of which were indicated earlier in my report and should be shown on the plat at this time.
Commissioner Floyd asked if the staff was agreeing to the single access point as being where it is
currently shown on the plat and how does that access point line up with Forest Drive? Mr. Vennochi
stated that the access point lines up exactly with Forest Drive according to TX DOT and may be
considered for possible future signal-light installation.
Opened the meeting for public comment.
Danny Miller, 1101 Capital of Texas Highway, Austin, stated that the conditions are acceptable. He
added that the intent of this development is to locate the driveway and a site plan has been prepared
that reflects the access point and it's exact alignment with Forest Drive for signalization by TX DOT at
the time of widening the road.
Chairman Mooney opened the meeting for public comment. No one came forward with a comment.
The item was moved to discussion among the Commissioners.
Commissioner Floyd motioned for approval with conditions as stated by staff. Commissioner Horlen
seconded the motion. The motion passed 7-0.

Item: Consideration of a Final Plat for the Gateway Ph 2 (FP) located at 1401
University Drive E. (1-500047).
