ENGINEERING COMMENTS NO. 3
1. Please change Private ROW designation to Common Area. ROW implies a public right.
2. You can designate the entire common area space as PUE, but be aware that structures are
not allowed in a PUE. Any pavilions, signs, etc could not be constructed in these areas.
Other projects have run into difficulties with this broad designation.

ENGINEERING COMMENTS
1. Minimum PUE width for water and sanitary sewer individually is 15'. If there are multiple
utilities in the PUE, then 20' at a minimum.
/2. Does the Wellborn Water Supply Corporation blanket easement cover the entire property?
City of College Station requires first rights to PUEs. This blanket will need to be released
prior to dedication of any PUEs.
„/3. Remove BTU and Wellborn designations from PUE areas. It is my understanding that both
of these can be placed in a standard PUE.
-/4. How is sanitary sewer being provided to Lots 1, 4, 5 and 6 of Block 2. A public main is
required.
,15. The 30' Road Easement issue still needs to be resolved. Provide the documents referenced
by volume and page numbers indicated on plat. Is it public or private? If public it needs to
be abandoned. If private, do parties listed in dedication documents need to agree to
realignment? You will not be able to fence within this ROW/Easement until these issues are
resolved. Indicate driveway will be removed.
✓6. Also, as you are planning to gate this development, please provide documentation that you
have permission to place a fence in the middle of the dedicated access easement on the
northern property boundary. Or, verify that your intention is not to place the fence on your
property line. How are you planning to provide this easement connection to Granite
Boulevard?
7. There are still utilities without PUEs.
8. PUE delineation is not clear in areas where alleys turn and where they intersect with the
private streets.
✓9. It may be more appropriate to designate the private street and alley ways as common areas
since we are including more property that just the pavement area.
✓ O. Why are security gates behind the alleys?
11. Once storm sewer to detention pond leaves ROW, it is private. Cleary indicate private
designation.
A2. Where is outfall on detention pond (2.62 acre area)?

Re: Variance Request
Dear Commissioners:
Please allow this letter to serve as a variance request by KyleView Estates, Ltd.
("KyleView"). KyleView specifically requests a variance from the street stub out requirement of
Section 8-G.2 of the City's Subdivision Regulations.
Kyleview is seeking to build a neotraditional, gated community of homes with a median
value of $270,000.00. Because it is intended to be a gated community with fences on all sides, my
client does not want to build street stub-outs to adjoining properties, but instead intends to fence the
entire residential community. We believe the variance requirements are met in the following
respects:
1. That there are special circumstances or conditions affecting the land involved such that strict
application of the provisions of this chapter will deprive the applicant of the reasonable use
of the land.
A. This gated community is on the edge of the city limits line. By not allowing stub outs
to adjoining land, it protects the neighborhood from potentially nonconforming uses
from the non-zoned adjacent land in the ETJ.
B. The surrounding landowners already have access to public roadways and in some
instances through the property. Specifically, the properties to the south have access
easements through the property. To the west, the two tracts are owned by one owner
who has direct access to Capstone Road and actually touches the entry way of Block
One on the current plat.
C. Because this a is a gated community, the residents will be responsible for road
maintenance and the upkeep of the common area amenities. Therefore, those outside
the gated community should not be allowed to use those facilities.
2. That the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property
right of applicant.
A. Because the plan is for a neotraditional development, the edges of the property will
be used as alleyways. If stub-outs are required, it will affect this alleyway plan.
B. This is a gated community. There are also amenities planned for the edges of the
property. To assure safety of the residents, the plan is to fence the outer perimeter.
If stub-outs are required with corresponding public dedications, it will defeat the
purposes of this gated community.
3. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or
welfare, or injurious to other property in the area, or to the City in administering this chapter.
A. All of the surrounding properties either have easements through the property and/or
direct access to public roadways.
B. There are no planned thoroughfares through the gated portion of the property.
C. Because the roadways within the community are privately maintained, there is no
public detriment.
D. By ordinance, the gate design and implementation will not pose a threat to the public
health, safety and welfare.
4. That the granting of the variance will not have the effect of preventing the orderly
subdivision of other land in the area in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
A. All of the surrounding properties either have easements through the property and/or
direct access to public roadways. Those can be used for future development
purposes.
B. There are no planned thoroughfares through the gated portion of the property.
C. The surrounding parcels are in the ETJ, and not part of the City.
For these reasons, KyleView requests the approval of this variance.
Thank you for your consideration.
Very truly y ,

Response to Staff Comments
1722 Broadmoor
Suite 210
Bryan, TX 77802
Dear Ms. Hartl:
Below is a listing of the comments dated April 15, 2008 regarding the preliminary plat for the
referenced project. Following each comment is our response in italics. Please also note that the
development name has changed from Kyle View Estates to Aspen Heights.
PLANNING COMMENTS
1. Our GIS Staff has indicated that there are chords missing at the northeastern corner of
the property. Please provide the missing chords to determine lot closure. After consulting
with our surveyor, it was noted that some of the chord information was not shown. We
have added the chord distance and chord bearing.
2. What is the acreage of the ROW in the property? The street right of way is
approximately 7.09 acres. The private alley acreage is approximately 4.77 acres.
3. Per Section 8-G.2 Relation to adjoining Street Systems, "where adjoining areas are not
subdivided, the arrangement of streets in the subdivision shall make provision for the
proper projection of streets into such areas." Please provide such projections in each in
each direction where properties are not subdivided or submit a variance request to this
requirement. A Variance Request has been prepared and is included with this re-
submittal.
4. Please remove the title "Master" from the title block. This will be referred to as a
Preliminary Plat. Noted.
5. Please revise the vicinity map to reflect the newly annexed areas as of March 29, 2008.
The vicinity map has been revised.
6. Be aware that A-O setbacks will apply to the proposed commercial and office uses
unless the appropriate rezonings are requested. Noted.
7. Please add the lot line dimensions to the plat. These dimensions have been added.
8. There is a dashed line 20' from the property lines of all lots in this plat. What does this
line represent? Please be aware that all setback lines must be removed from the plat.
This line has been removed.
9. The ROW width and pavement width need to be dimensioned. We have removed the
typical section that showed this information and dimensioned it with traditional labels.
We have also included an inset showing a closer view where that labeling became toc
tedious.
10. Staff is unable to identify any sidewalks on the plat. How will residents access the 20'

pedestrian access? We have added sidewalks along the street right of ways connecting
pedestrian accesses, common areas, and perimeter walking/jogging trail.
11. What kind of pavement material will be used for the pedestrian access? Also please label
the pedestrian access as a pedestrian access easement. The current plan is to construct
this with either gravel or crushed rock. The label has been revised as requested.
12. All common areas, streets, gates and other neighborhood amenities must be maintained
by the established HOA. Please add a note to the plat that addresses common area
maintenance. This note has been added.
13. Where will the gates be located? Please show their location on the plat. These gates are
now shown.
14. Please add the lot acreage to each lot. These acreages have been added.
15. The alleys may be included in the common area and do not have to be delineated in such
areas. Noted.
16. Please add sidewalks where required according to Section 8-M of the Subdivision
Regulations. We have added sidewalks in accordance with this section.
ENGINEERING COMMENTS
1. Is the lift station and force main part of this project, or will you be waiting for the City
project to be awarded at Council to proceed? The latter applies. This portion of the
project will be bid through the City, but Developer constructed.
2. If not designating private streets and alleys as common area, please note on plat the
maintenance responsibility. Also clearly designate them as private. This note has been
added. The streets and alleys have been labeled as private.
3. Show all existing PUEs indicating volume and page numbers. We have added filing
information for the new PUE acquired for the Wellborn SUD waterline along the south
side of Capstone Drive and filing information for a blanket easement also for Wellborn
SUD. I cannot find any other unlabeled existing PUE's.
4. Show all required PUEs on the Plat. These are shown and labeled.
5. All utilities and services crossing the private streets and alleys are required to be in a
PUE. Noted.
6. Off-site PUE for storm and sanitary will be required prior to Final Plat going to P&Z.
Noted.
7. Show fire hydrant locations. These locations are now shown.
8. Proof of fire flow will be required with Final Plat. Noted.
9. As proposed, the existing 30' Road Easement will have to be abandoned, and will be a
requirement to Final Plat. A completely separate 30' private alley is now shown abutting
the existing 30' road easement.
10. Show acreage of Lots in Block 2. This acreage is now shown.
GENERAL ELECTRICAL COMMENTS
1. This plat is out of the College Station Utility electric service area. Customer will have to
get with their electric supplier for this area to determine electric service specifications and
requirements. Noted.
FIRE COMMENTS
1. Entrance locations do not meet IFC 2006 "D" 107 "Remoteness". Mr. Smith noted that
as the plan was submitted all traffic would have to travel through a single intersection
(Granite Boulevard and Slate Street). We have added a segment of alley and striped it
as a fire lane which now allows a second and third access point to Capstone Drive
without forcing traffic through the Granite/Slate intersection.

Sounds more complicated this way, but then I do remember City employment.
If you will grab a copy of the PP from Crissy or the file, then you can follow along with these substitutions. If
both suggestions work for a given street, let me know and we'll pick. If neither suggestion works, please let me
know which of the 'extra' names might fit with that suffix.
• Granite Boulevard should be renamed Aspen Heights Boulevard or Breckenridge Boulevard
• Slate Street should be renamed Buena Vista Drive or Treeline Drive
• Gabbro Court should be renamed Boulder Court or Colorado Court
• Basalt Court should be renamed Copper Court or Sherman Court
• Gneiss Court should be renamed Pikes Peak Court or Angel Fire Court
• Obsidian Court should be renamed Vail Court or Denver Court
• Dolomite Court should be renamed Jackson Hole Court or Steamboat Court

ENGINEERING COMMENTS
1. Is the lift station and force main part of this project, or will you be waiting for the City
project to be awarded at Council to proceed? The latter applies. This portion of the
project will be bid through the City, but Developer constructed.
2. If not designating private streets and alleys as common area, please note on plat the
maintenance responsibility. Also clearly designate them as private. This note has been
added. The streets and alleys have been labeled as private.
3. Show all existing PUEs indicating volume and page numbers. We have added filing
information for the new PUE acquired for the Wellborn SUD waterline along the south
side of Capstone Drive and filing information for a blanket easement also for Wellborn
SUD. I cannot find any other unlabeled existing PUE's.
4. Show all required PUEs on the Plat. These are shown and labeled.
5. All utilities and services crossing the private streets and alleys are required to be in a
PUE. Noted.
6. Off-site PUE for storm and sanitary will be required prior to Final Plat going to P&Z.
Noted.
7. Show fire hydrant locations. These locations are now shown.
8. Proof of fire flow will be required with Final Plat. Noted.
9. As proposed, the existing 30' Road Easement will have to be abandoned, and will be a
requirement to Final Plat. A completely separate 30' private alley is now shown abutting
the existing 30' road easement.
10. Show acreage of Lots in Block 2. This acreage is now shown.
GENERAL ELECTRICAL COMMENTS
1. This plat is out of the College Station Utility electric service area. Customer will have to
get with their electric supplier for this area to determine electric service specifications and
requirements. Noted.
FIRE COMMENTS
1. Entrance locations do not meet IFC 2006 "D" 107 "Remoteness". Mr. Smith noted that
as the plan was submitted all traffic would have to travel through a single intersection
(Granite Boulevard and Slate Street). We have added a segment of alley and striped it
as a fire lane which now allows a second and third access point to Capstone Drive
without forcing traffic through the Granite/Slate intersection.
ADDRESSING COMMENTS
1. Please show all street names on plat for review. Street names are now shown.
Please do not hesitate to contact Brett McCully or myself if you have any questions,
r wire further information to complete your review.

FYI
"Brett" <bmccully@bleylengineering.com> 5/7/2008 5:44 PM
Crissy,
I have received two pages of comments on the kyle view project, but first of all want to double check that Mandi's
addressing comments were the last (i.e. none from water/electric/sanitation).
Secondly, I do think that it would help a great deal for us to meet and go over several of the engineering items just to
make sure that we are all on the same page, and that we can make plan revisions accordingly.
Thirdly, to make the best use of our time, I am including my initial responses to the 12 engineering comments in order.
1. Understood, and we would like help in noting where we missed our labeling enough to show less than required.
We have attempted to show that the easement covers the entire private ROW and/or Alley plus the additional
space on each side.
2. 1 will have to get with Paul on what the existing easement covers, and how it can be replaced with specific use
easements.
3. We have been specifically directed by both BTU and Wellborn SUD that they need this designation. Apparently
neither utility is comfortable with their franchise rights position with respect to the city, and they are exercising
their CCN rights to request specific easement nomenclature.
4. Public sewer main(s) will be extended to serve these lots
5. There are two existing private easements. This developer has tried for a long period of time to replace both
easements to no avail. Assuming this remains the case, this development is allowed to add private gates across
the easement (with keys to the easement benefactors), but no other restrictions. Therefore our fencing is planned
along the edges of this easement, with the exception of a minimum number of gates. It is our understanding that
the existing driveway on Capstone west of Granite cannot be removed without consent of the easement owners.
This is also complicated by Capstone remaining within the County where different access management criteria
are used.
6. The development fencing will be placed on the edges of the existing easements, and therefore not require such
permission. We would like to talk to staff about options regarding a lay-down curb where the easement meets
granite blvd. to allow for this physical access.
7. This will be fixed.
8. This will be fixed.
9. We would like to discuss this option with staff further to better understand implications. This could also be used to
address the planning comment regarding clarification of maintenance responsibilities.

10. This security gate is located to separate the private easement holder's access from the secured residential area.
We would like to discuss how to show this more effectively.
11. This will be fixed.
12. We will clarify the outfall location.
Please let me know what times are available to meet so I can verify with Paul's Schedule.
Thanks!
Brett

PLANNING COMMENTS
1. Please include the private alleys in the maintenance responsibilities of the HOA.
Reviewed by: Crissy Hartl
Date: May 7, 2008
ENGINEERING COMMENTS
1. Minimum PUE width for water and sanitary sewer individually is 15'. If there are multiple
utilities in the PUE, then 20' at a minimum.
2. Does the Wellborn Water Supply Corporation blanket easement cover the entire property?
City of College Station requires first rights to PUEs. This blanket will need to be released
prior to dedication of any PUEs.
3. Remove BTU and Wellborn designations from PUE areas. It is my understanding that both
of these can be placed in a standard PUE.
4. How is sanitary sewer being provided to Lots 1, 4, 5 and 6 of Block 2. A public main is
required.
5. The 30' Road Easement issue still needs to be resolved. Provide the documents referenced
by volume and page numbers indicated on plat. Is it public or private? If public it needs to
be abandoned. If private, do parties listed in dedication documents need to agree to
realignment? You will not be able to fence within this ROW/Easement until these issues are
resolved. Indicate driveway will be removed.
6. Also, as you are planning to gate this development, please provide documentation that you
have permission to place a fence in the middle of the dedicated access easement on the
northern property boundary. Or, verify that your intention is not to place the fence on your
property line. How are you planning to provide this easement connection to Granite
Boulevard?
7. There are still utilities without PUEs.
8. PUE delineation is not clear in areas where alleys turn and where they intersect with the
private streets.
9. It may be more appropriate to designate the private street and alley ways as common areas
since we are including more property that just the pavement area.
10. Why are security gates behind the alleys?
11. Once storm sewer to detention pond leaves ROW, it is private. Cleary indicate private
designation.
12. Where is outfall on detention pond (2.62 acre area)?
