Chen Engineering 6161 Savoy, Suite 310 Houston, Texas 77036 RE: 2420 Texas Avenue South College Station Texas Lot 1, Parkway Plaza Phase 7 Dear Mr. Lee, This letter is to inform you that the above referenced property has received an administrative adjustment of three parking spaces to the 42 spaces required for the proposed 4,155 square foot drive - thru restaurant, provided that a bicycle rack is sited in an approved location on the property (the number of parking spaces required is based on a parking ratio of one space per 100 square feet of drive -thru restaurant building area). According to the Unified Development Ordinance (LIDO), Section 3.15, the Administrator has the authority to authorize adjustment of up to 10 percent from any numerical zoning standard set forth in Articles 5, 6, or 7 of the UDO. To approve the application for an administrative adjustment, the Administrator shall make an affirmative finding that specific criteria, as outlined in Section 3.15.E of the UDO, have been met. The Administrator has found that: Granting the adjustment will ensure the same general level of land use compatibility as the otherwise applicable standards because the amount of the adjustment is negligible and will not significantly alter the intensity of the land use, Granting the adjustment will not materially or adversely affect adjacent land uses or the physical character of uses in the immediate vicinity of the proposed development because the existing McDonald's is redeveloping as the same use and with the same general site layout; and Granting the adjustment will be generally consistent with the purposes and intent of this UDO owing to the fact that a bicycle rack will be provided in lieu of the 3 required parking spaces. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at (979) 764 -3570.
