A "Preliminary Plat" will be presented at the March 215 meeting of the College Station Planning and Zoning Commission; and in accordance with procedures followed by the P & Z Commission, you and other nearby neighbors will receive ten days prior to the March 21" meeting, a notice of the public hearing conducted at the meeting. In order for yrnl to have an npport.unity to review the proposed re-Platting prior to March 21', and to get answers to questions you may have. I would like to have an opportunity to share this information with you at your convent=s. The Preliminary Plat to be submitted to the P & Z Commission was not available from the engineering firm as of this writing, but a close approximation of the plat will be available next week; and I am available to meet with you at your resideuce, ur at rnrrother place of your chuosuig, to review the information - or we can visit by phone, if you prefer. To reach me on a direct basis, please call my cell phone (575-6248), which is a local-dial number. If my line is busy, please leave your name and number so I may return the call. The proposed re-platting is in compliance with all zoning, code and moratorium requirements of the City of College Station. As you may know, Woodland Estates is zoned R-1 (single family residences only); and the minimum size of all home sites re-platted In this residential area must comply with the requirements of a "nioraturiuut" Wuptud by the City of College Station to preserve the character tula integrity of the surrowlding neighborhood. Under tho moratorium, the width of rc-platted lots must be as wide as the average of all other lots in the adjacent neighborhood. The proposed re-platting complies fully with the City's moratorium. Should you not be familiar with the locale of Woodland Estates Subdivision, it is bordered by Munson, Dominick, Westover and Holt.. The subdivision, however, primarily touches only Munson Avenue (not the other streets mentioned), because most of the original subdivision was re-platted and re-named over the years. My wife, Cathy, and I lived in RCS for 20 years before moving to the Temple-Belton area five years ago for employment reasons; but having recently wrapped up my professional career, we are selling our residence on I ake Helton and moving back home. A tract of land became available to us in Woodland Estates to build a new home; but after determining that several hundred thousand dollars of development costs was required to satisfy City requirements fbr cul-de-sac access, drainage control, utilities, etc., we realized the only way financially feasible to construct our hu me uit the propcrty was to kx;ludc additional holm sites over which to spread the required development costs. The lots to be re-platted are larger than most in the area; and we believe the upscale custom hunitb built oil the lots will enhance the market value of the surrounding neighborhood. Please give me a call.
