Box 9960 College Station, Texas 77842 Re.: The Meadows, Phase 1A& 113 Block Length Variance Request MBESI No. 10570009 Dear Chairman and Commissioners: On behalf of the owner and developer of The Meadows, Phase 1A & 1 B, we respectfully request a variance from Article 8. Subdivision Design and Improvements of the Unified Development Ordinance, Section 8.2, B., 10., b. Block Length. The ordinance currently limits the maximum block length to 1,500' for rural residential subdivisions. Due to topographical and hydrological constraints, we request that a block length of approximately 2,200 feet be allowed along the south side of the property. The variance process in accordance with Section 8.3 Waiver of Subdivision Standards requires the Planning & Zoning Commission to find in favor of four issues before the variance can be approved. Following is our response to these issues for the above requested variance: Section 8.3, A., 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 his land. Response: The existing property is bound by Peach Creek along the south side. Due to the meandering of Peach Creek and width of floodplain at this location, providing a street projection to the south is not feasible. The projection of a street to the south is not necessary because the adjacent property to the south is also owned by Peach Creek Partners. Ltd. and has direct access to State Highway 6 and F.M. 159. Therefore, no property to the south will be "land" locked if a street projection is not provided. Section 8.3, A., 2.: That the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. Response: The variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of the property rights of the applicant. A street projection to the south would place an encumbrance on the property because a street constructed at this location across the floodplain is not practical or feasible.

Response: Granting this variance would not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare and is not injurious to the property to the south (i.e. which is also owned by Peach Creek Partners, Ltd.) The property to the south has access along State Highway 6 and F.M. 159. Providing no street projection to the south would not have a detrimental impact on the property being developed nor the property to the south. • Section 8.3, A., 3.: 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. Response: Granting this variance will not prevent the orderly subdivision of other land in the area because, as stated previously, the property to the south has access available along State Highway 6 and F.M. 159. On behalf of the developer, we respectfully ask for your approval of this variance request for the reasons outlined above. We are more than happy to answer any questions you may have regarding this variance request. Thank you. Sincerely, /" J. Dale Browne, Jr, P. cc: Jack McFarlane, Peach Creek Development Corp.
