Memorandum
Date: March 13, 2003
To: Planning and Zoning Commission
From: Lee Battle, Senior Planne
Re: Report on Mixed -Use
The Mixed -Use study was initiated to analyze opportunities for mixed -use development
in College Station and determine if any changes to the City's policies or Land Use Plan
are needed to help implement or encourage this development pattern. A subcommittee of
the Commission met over a period of three months to study this issue. Enclosed you will
find a report that shows the results of those discussions as well as proposed
recommendations.
This item has been placed on both the workshop and regular meeting agendas for your
discussion and consideration. The intent is to allow some time at the workshop for
discussion about the mixed -use concept. The regular agenda item is necessary to
consider proposed amendments to the Land Use Plan.
All affected property owners have been notified by mail. The entire report and all maps
have been made available on the City's web site. Staff has also contacted neighborhood
associations adjacent to properties being affected by the proposed Land Use Plan
amendments. At this time staff has had several conversations with property owners, but
has not encountered any opposition.
