The property consists of approximatly 1.9 -acres generally located on the east side of Wellborn Road between Rock Prairie road and Graham road. Applicant: Robert Williams, State Bank Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the C -1 zone request. Item Summary: The applicant purchased the subject property prior to the adoption of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) with the intent to build a bank facility. With the adoption of the UDO, drive -in /thru uses are no longer allowed in the C -3 zoning district, which would prevent State Bank from having a drive -thru banking system. However, drive -in /thru uses are allowed in C -1 General Commercial zoning district. Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The Land Use Plan shows the subject property as Retail Regional. The C -1 General Commercial zone change would allow for this type of use. Currently all of the properties between Rock Prairie Road and Mortier Drive are all shown on the Comprehensive Plan as Retail Regional. It is staffs understanding that the applicant has met with the adjacent Edelweiss Owners Association (HOA) about the zone request to C -1, and their drive -thru bank facility proposal. The applicant has stated that they have received positive feed back from the HOA. Since the zone change is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan and the applicant has met with the HOA and received positive feed back, staff is in support of this zone change. Item Background: The subject property was annexed into the City of College Station city limits March 1992 and it is currently platted. Commission Action Options: The Commission acts as a recommending body on the question of rezoning, which will be ultimately decided by City Council. The Commission options are: 1. Recommend approval of rezoning as submitted; 2. Recommend a less intense zoning classification; 3. Recommend denial; 4. Table indefinitely; or, 5. Defer action to a specified date.
