Item: Consideration of a FINAL PLAT for GATEWAY SUBDIVISION PH. 1 located at the northwest
comer of University Drive and SH 6. (99-70)
Applicant: FRANK NMIALOPOLOUS
Item Summary: The preliminary plat previously approved for this tract divided the property into 8 C-B
Business Commercial zoned lots and two areas reserved for future development. The final plat under
consideration is Phase 1 of this preliminary plat. It consists of approximately 39 acres and includes the 8
C-B lots. Six of these lots front on University Drive and two others have frontage on the SH-6 Frontage
Road. Reserve areas A and B total approximately 38 acres. Reserve A includes a 20.59-acre tract zoned
R-5 medium density apartments and a 5.68-acre tract zoned C-B. Reserve B is an 11.49-acre tract zoned
C-B.
The property is bound by University Drive on the south, the SH-6 East Bypass on the east, the Bryan/C.S.
city limit line on the north, and the reserve tract on the west. The Land Use Plan shows this area as
mixed use and no existing or future thoroughfares are shown on the Thoroughfare Plan for this area. The
T-fare Plan was amended last December to remove the extension of Glenhaven Drive north of University
Drive.
Numerous shared and cross access easements have been included on the plat to aid in distributing traffic
to and between various access points on University Drive and the SH 6 Frontage Road. Two access
easements on University Drive and a third on the Frontage Road will provide primary access and internal
circulation for the site.
Item Background: A preliminary plat for the Gateway was approved by the Commission in July 1, 1999.
This final plat complies with the approved preliminary plat.
Budgetary & Financial Summary: The applicant has not requested any oversize participation.
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the final plat with the following conditions:
• That the easement running along the rear of the property be centered on the sanitary sewer line and
this easement be labeled on the plat as a 20 foot public utility easement (P.U.E.). This should be
shown for its entirety on and off this plat through the properties depicted.
• That adjacent easements to the property be added and noted as proposed or existing
• That the word "PRIVATE" be added to all access easements and that all utility easements be labeled
"PUBLIC"
• Remove the ownership from Lot 1.
Related Advisory Board Recommendations: NA
Commission Action Options: The Commission has final authority over the final plat. The options
regarding the final plat are approval as submitted, approval with conditions, or denial. Defer action or
table only at applicant's request.

INFRASTRUCTURE AND FACILITIES
Water: Water will be extended from University Drive from two locations. Design calculations
justifying the proposed 8 and 12-inch lines are currently under review. The easement for the
waterline is provided on this preliminary plat. Staff has concerns regarding the preservation of
trees along University Drive frontage and conflicts that the waterline construction may have
with this endeavor. If the waterline cannot avoid large specimen trees staff would request that
the developer either bore those sections of waterline or move the waterline to the rear along the
access easement.
Sewer: Will be provided through existing lines and a proposed 8-inch line being located along
the rear access easement behind Lots 4 through 8.
Streets: The property is bound by University Drive and SH 6 East Bypass West Frontage Road.
University Drive is shown as a major arterial and the SH 6 East Bypass is shown as a Freeway
on the City's Thoroughfare Plan. The extension of Glenhaven Drive through this site was
removed from the Thoroughfare Plan in December of 1998. Access to all lots is as shown on
the plat via shared access easements.
Off-site Easements: Staff has requested that the offsite sanitary sewer easement be shown
through the reserve area to the west of this plat.
Drainage: Detention will be determined at the time of site plan review. There should be a note
on the plat stating that easements will be located at the time of site design for the off-site
drainage coming from Scott and White and for that running through the Reserve Tract A. If
regional detention will be used, a separate instrument easement can be provided at a future date
to cover that private facility.
Flood Plain: Some 42.5 acres are in the floodplain, although none of the site has floodway on it
according to the applicant.
Oversize request: None requested.
Sidewalks: At this time, because of the impending 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.
Impact Fees: N/A
