Vennochi Jr. Date: 10 Jan 01 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 -B 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.

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.
