REZONING SUPPORTING INFORMATION
1. List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change necessary .
10/1 0
The existing retail center is predominantly vacant and prime for redevelopment. A zone change is necessary in
order to develop a mix of residential and commercial uses in a more urban setting. The proposed POD zoning
district will allow a mix of commercial and residential land uses with more urban development standards.
Page 2 of 7
2 . Indicate whether or not this zone change is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan . If it is not, explain why the
Plan is incorrect.
The POD rezoning is in accordance with the City's Comprehensive Plan . The subject property is currently located
wUhin Area V, the University Drive Hospitality Corridor and designated for general commercial and hospitality land
uses .
3 . How will this zone change be compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with
the character of the neighborhood?
The proposed POD zoning district includes commercial land uses within the existing permitted GC General
Commercial zoning district and incorporates new high density residential land uses. The mix of uses and scale of
the project is more compatible with the surrounding neighborhood including the Hilton hotel, the former Albertson's
retail center and the Tarrow Office Park.
4 . Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the rezoning district requested.
A mix of commercial and residential land uses is critical to redeveloping the subject property. Incorporating more
urban development standards will provide the design flexibility necessary to create a new center that allows for
living, working and recreating within close proximity.
5. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
The subject property is suitable for the commerical land uses permitted in the existing GC General Commercial
zoning district; however, the proposed POD will allow the introduction of residential uses and development
standards to create a more urban environment.
6 . Explain the marketability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
The existing under-performing retail center is currently permitted by right within the existing GC General
Commercial zoning district. The exising zoning district limits marketability to commercial land uses commonly
found along the University Drive Corridor. A mix of land uses with urban development standards will encourage the
redevelopment of the existing center into a more sustainable project for the City of College Station.
7 . List any other reasons to support this zone change .
10 /10
The proposed POD will support the redevelopment of an existing under-performing property in a prominent area of
the city -along the University Drive primary image corridor. The City's Economic Development Master Plan states
that "it is essential that redevelopment and reinvestment in underutilized facilities and properties occur".
Page 3 of 7
8 . State the purpose and intent of the proposed development.
The purpose and intent of the POD is to encourage the redevelopment of an existing underperforming retail center
along the University Drive Hospitality Corridor. The new development will provide a destination for residents and
visitors to shop, dine, live and recreate in a more urban environment. Introducing high density residential land uses
and more urban development standards will incent the major reinvestment of an underutilized property in a
prominent area of College Station .
CONCEPT PLAN SUPPORTING INFORMATION
1. What is the range of future building heights?
The range of future buildings heights will be one to seven stories . Overall maximum height will be limited via the
base zoning districts of GC General Commercial and R-6 High Density Apartments.
2. Provide a general statement regarding the proposed drainage.
The existing site is predominantly impervious cover with building and parking. With the site plan, both pre and post
development flows will be analyzed to ensure flows have not increased from the site or have been mitigated.
3 . List the general bulk or dimensional variations sought.
See attached.
4. If variations are sought, please provide a list of community benefits and/or innovative design concepts to justify the
request.
See attached.
10/10 Pag e 4 of 7
5 . Expla in how the concept plan proposal will constitute and environment of sustained stability and will be in harmony
with the character of the surrounding area .
The concept plan incorporates a mix of commercial and residential land uses in a more urban environment to blend
with the character of the surrounding area. The mix of uses and scale of the project is in harmony with such
adjacent developments as the Hilton hotel, Tarrow Office Park, Albertsons Retail Center and the Golden Corral
center.
6 . Explain how the proposal is in conformity with the policies, goals, and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed POD is in conformance with the City's Comprehensive Plan . Redevelopment of the center will
improve the aesthetics along the University Drive Corridor and implement the hospitality goals of the area . The
creation of a destination will anchor the west end of the hospitality corridor. Approving the proposed POD will
implement a major strategy of the City's Economic Development Master Plan by encouraging the redevelopment
and reinvestment of an underutilized facility in a prominent location . The Plan specifically recommends that the
City "facilitate the development of retail, employment and higher density housing in appropriate areas with an
emphasis on integrated design and pedestrian and bicycle traffic as viable transportation alternatives".
7. Explain how the concept plan proposal is compatible with existing or permitted uses on abutting sites and will not
adversely affect adjacent development.
The concept plan is compatible with the adjacent commercial land uses including overall size and scale . The
existing commercial land uses allowed within the GC General Commercial zoning district will be preserved and
residential uses will be incorporated to provide a more sustainable development.
8. State how dwellin units shall have access to a ublic street if the do not front on a ublic street.
-------~
The property is surrounded by public streets on all sides.
9 . State how the development has provided adequate public improvements , including , but not limited to : parks , schools ,
and other public facilities .
All public improvements currently exist on the property.
10/10 Page 5 of 7
10 . Explain how the concept plan proposal will not be detrimental to the public health , safety , or welfare, or be materially
injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.
The concept plan and POD zoning proposes the entire redevelopment of the existing retail center to meet or
exceed local development codes and ordinances . In addition to improving public health, safety and welfare , the
redevelopment will be an asset to the entire community and enhance the University Drive Primary Image Corridor.
11 . Explain how the concept plan proposal will not adversely affect the safety and convenience of vehicular, bicycle , or
pedestrian circulation in the v icinity, including traffic reasonably expected to be generated by the proposed use and
other uses reasonable anticipated in the area considering existing zoning and land uses in the area .
The subject property is currently surrounded by public streets including a major arterial, University Drive . Adequate
facilities including sidewalks and bicycle racks will be provided to accommodate pedestrian circulation . The mix of
land uses and urban development standards provide for a more sustainable project that serves the hospitality
needs of the community. The center piece of the new development is an outdoor pedestrian plaza that provides a
destination for community events, shopping and leisure activities.

CHIMNEY HILL POD
aRedevelopment is critical for any community to thrive or even survive through
various development cycles and transitions. It is essential that redevelopment and
reinvestment in underutilized faciliti.es and properties occur."
City of College Station's Comprehensive Plan, Economic Development Master Plan
The City's Comprehensive Plan recognizes the importance of the subject property and the
Univers ity Drive Hospitality Corridor designated for general commercial and hospitality land
uses . In addition to the Land Use Plan and Community Character strategies, the Economic
Development Master Plan encourages redevelopment of underutilized facilities in prominent
areas of the city. Initiating a major redevelopment of the subject property ensures compliance
with the City's Comprehensive Plan and offers the following community benefits:
1. Creation of a more urban mixed use concept development within a highly visible,
underutilized property anchoring the western end of the University Drive Hospitality
Corridor.
2. Converting an underperforming land use along a Primary Image Gateway w ithin close
proximity to Texas A&M University.
3. Major redevelopment of a vacant property currently owned by the City of College
Station .
4. Creation of a destination opportunity for residents and visitors centered around a public
outdoor plaza area with unique shopping, dining and living opportunities.
5. Higher density residential development within close proximity to Texas A&M University
marketed toward young professionals within the community.
6. Implementing a major strategy in the City's Economic Development Master Plan -
supporting redevelopment and reinvestment. The Plan calls for the City to "continue to
lead the redevelopment efforts of areas such as Northgate and the University Drive
Corridor and continue to assist in the reinvestment efforts of private interests."
7. Encouraging mixed-use development. The City's Economic Development Master Plan
specifically recommends that the City "facilitate the development of retail, employment
and higher density housing in appropriate areas with an emphasis on integrated design
and pedestrian and bicycle traffic as viable transportation alternatives."
8. Providing additional retail and dining offerings for non-student populations. The city's
Economic Development Master Plan identified this element as a challenge within the
local economy.
In order to incorporate a residential component within the proposed redevelopment a rezoning
is required. The PDD zoning classification is the only tool in the Unified Development
Ordinance (UDO) currently available to implement the vertical mix of uses and urban character
envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. Although not an ideal zoning tool for this application,
the PDD is being used to establish these urban standards and stimulate the redevelopment of a
suburban commercial strip center into a more urban mix of residential and commercial uses.
The following are the development standards for the PDD:
Permitted Uses & Bulk Standards
Permitted Uses
Maintain the permitted land uses within the existing GC General Commercial zoning district and
adding multi-family land uses per the R-6 High Density Apartments zoning district. Permitted
uses also include a pedestrian-oriented outdoor plaza designed for community events. Uses
within the plaza include a pavilion, tower architectural feature, outdoor sales, display and other
park-like amenities.
Setbacks
The following setbacks are proposed:
Minimum Front Setback (along University Drive) 20'
Minimum Side Setback (between buildings) 7.5'
Minimum Side Street Setback (along East Tarrow) 15'
Minimum Rear Setback (along Tarrow and Building E) 10'
Residential Density
Maximum residential density is thirty (30) dwelling units per acre per the R-6 High Density
Apartments base zoning district.
Building Height
Building height is regulated via the base zoning districts of GC General Commercial and R-6 High
Density Apartments.
Parking
In an effort to create a more walkable environment, a combination of traditional surface
parking and a parking garage will be used . The following parking reductions were based upon
three elements: (1) The City's suburban parking standards for commercial and residential land
uses ; (2) The City's more urban parking standards found in the Northgate zoning districts; and,
(3) The projected parking demands based upon uses permitted via the PDD . The following
parking requirements are proposed:
Resident i al Uses
Non-Residential Uses
1 parking space per bed
1 parking space per 250 sq. ft.*
(*No increases for more intense commercial uses as
defined by the UDO.}
Allow up to 20% of compact parking spaces within parking garages .
Meritorious Modifications
Oft-Street Parking Standards
Minimum parking lot setback of 8' along Tarrow Street including the removal of a
double landscaped island every seven parking spaces.
Right-of-Way Dedication
No additional right-of-way is anticipated for University Drive, Tarrow or East Tarrow.
Non -Res i dential Architectural Standards
Section 12-7.10 Non-Residential Architectural Standards will apply except for the following
modifications:
Building Mass, Design & Materials:
Parking Garages are exempt from NRA requirements. Parking garages may be
constructed of a pre -cast concrete product and painted to complement abutting
buildings.
Accessory Buildings :
Accessory buildings shall not be required to meet the NRA standards .
Siqnaqe
The sign regulations for the base zoning districts of GC comm~rcial and R-6 residential will
be utilized for this development with the following modifications:
• Sign s may be approved administratively by staff with appeals to staff's
interpretations to be considered by the Design Review Board .
• Wayfinding signage (UDO Section 12-7.5 .AA Campus Wayfinding Signs) is permitted
for this development and may also be located at street intersections including
driveways with parking.
• In addition to one freestanding sign, low profile signs are allowed at a rate of one
per building.
• Light pole signage may be utilized within the plaza area only and is limited to a
maximum of 14 light pole signs with 36 square feet per light pole. These signs are
not in lieu of freestanding signage, are intended as development identification and
special event signage, will not be utilized for tenant signage, and do not count
against attached signage limitations.
• Apartment Identification Signage is allowed as follows:
o Two detached signs -One placed at University and East Tarrow and a second
placed at University Drive and Tarrow only advertising the subdivision or
area. No commercial tenant advertising shall occur on the apartment ID
signs.
• Attached signage is permitted for all residential and non -resident i al buildings.
o The residential portion of the public entry fac;:ade shall be calculated in the
allowance for attached signage square footage.
o The facades of buildings B, C, D and E facing University Drive should be
included in the public entry fac;:ade calculation .

Re: PDD zoning of the Chimney Hill property on University Drive in College Station.
Dear Mr. Demiano ,
The purpose of this letter is to confirm the zoning of the existing Chimney Hill Retail Center
located at 701 & 715 University Drive East at the intersection of University Drive East and Tarrow
Street in College Station, Texas.
On May 12 , 2014 , the College Station City Council adopted ordinance number 2014-3569 to
rezone the Chimney Hill Retail Plaza Subdivision to PDD Planned Development District. As
stated in the ordinance, it would become effective once a deed is executed for purchase of the
property and recorded in the Official Records of Brazos County , Texas on or before September
15, 2014. On August 14, 2014, the College Station City Council adopted ordinance number 2014-
3593 which amended ordinance number 2014-3569 to change the effective date such that the
ordinance would become effective once a deed is executed for purchase of the property and
recorded in the Official Records of Brazos County, Texas on or before December 31, 2014. As of
today , City staff has also approved the requested minor amendment to the PDD Concept Plan to
reconfigure some of the site layout characteristics such as the parking garage , hotel/residential
area, and surface parking.
Permitted land uses within the PDD Planned Development District include all GC General
Commercial land uses along with multi-family land uses as allowed in the R-6 High Density Multi-
family zoning district. If you have any questions , please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely ,

RE : Chimney Hill Rezoning
I just looked at the ordinance that I drafted before P&Z and will be included in Council packets. There is a statement in it that
says "A hotel use is also permitted in the area designated for residential." So wherever there is residential could be hotel use
instead and it does not specify the hotel use replaces all of the residential so you could have both.
Thanks,
Jason

Good morning! I just wanted to follow-up on the hotel issue with the PDD. We want to make sure that hotel uses can
be in addition to residential uses -not substituted for residential uses.
I think our application is written to allow this I just wanted to confirm and make sure this was clear before Council.
Thanks Jason!

REVIEW CRITERIA
Existing shopping center to be demol ished as part of
redevelopment.
1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan:
2. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood:
3. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment:
Planning & Zoning Commission
May 1 , 2014
Page 4 of 7
4. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:
5. Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use:
The subject property is designated as General Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan 's
Future Land Use and Character Map and is within the area identified as the Hospitality Corridor
along University Drive East. The proposed project seeks to redevelop an aging shopping center
along one of the College Station's primary image corridors . The site was originally constructed
in the late 1970s and the proposed project will retain mostly ground floor commercial while
allowing for residential uses in the northeast corner of the site and on the upper floors of the
main building . A hotel use is also permitted in the area designated for residential use .
The subject property is surrounded by thoroughfares and developed property zoned GC
General Commercial. The proposed development will continue the commercial nature of the
immediate vicinity while allowing residential uses in which the parking will be accommodated
within a parking garage. Given the amount of access and proximity to major thoroughfares ,
commercial uses remain suitable for this centrally located property. A greater inten~ity of uses
though is commonly needed to support the costs associated with a redevelopment project of
this nature . While marketable as a commercial-only property, the opportunity provided by
redevelopment allows for the creation of a unique , destination-based development along one of
the City 's main corridors . The existing OV Corridor Overlay that begins at Earl Rudder Freeway
and ends on this property at Tarrow Street will be removed as part of this request. This will allow
the project to reduce setbacks and create a more pedestrian-friendly environment internally .
There is a 12-inch water line along East Tarrow, a 20-inch water line along Tarrow Street , and
an 8-inch sanitary sewer line off East Tarrow to serve the property . Some of the infrastructure
and easements on the site will need to be abandoned and/or relocated for the redevelopment to
occur. Storm drainage is to Burton Creek and post-development flows will not be able to exceed
pre-development flows.
Access to the subject tract will be via Tarrow Street/East Tarrow, a four-lane Minor Arterial , and
University Drive East , a six-lane Major Arterial. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was submitted
as part of this rezoning application . Based on the analysis, an additional right-turn lane is
required on Tarrow Street for the southbound approach to University Drive East as it falls below
the acceptable level of service with the forecasted and site-generated traffic. A right-turn
deceleration lane will be required for the proposed consolidated driveway from University Drive
East due to the anticipated volume of right turns into the site .
REVIEW OF CONCEPT PLAN
The applicant has provided the following information related to the purpose and intent of the
proposed zoning district:
"The purpose and intent of the POD is to encourage the redevelopment of an existing
underperforming retail center along the University Drive Hospitality Corridor. The
new development will provide a destination for residents and visitors to shop, dine,
live , and recreate in a more urban environment. Introducing high density residential
land uses and more urban development standards will incent the major reinvestment
of an underutilized property in a prominent area of College Station ."
Planning & Zoning Commission
May 1 , 2014
Page 5 of 7
The Concept Plan proposes to demolish the existing buildings and construct a vertical mixed
use building and four one-story buildings in phases that orient toward an interior plaza . A
parking garage will be attached to the vertical mixed-use building and provide additional
parking . The two driveways along University Drive East will be consolidated into one with a
right-turn deceleration lane provided. The existing driveway location on East Tarrow with left-
turn lane will remain and three new driveways are proposed along Tarrow Street with one
aligning with the former Albertson's shopping center driveway and another with Arguello Drive .
Base Zoning and Meritorious Modifications
The development will utilize GC General Commercial and R-6 High Density Multi-Family as the
base zoning districts .
Permitted Uses
GC General Commercial uses along with multi-family land uses as allowed in R-6 High Density
Multi-Family Permitted are permitted in addition to a pedestrian-oriented outdoor plaza designed
for community events that include a pavilion , tower architectural feature, outdoor sales , display
and other park-like amenities .
Density
The maximum residential density is 30 units per acre as per the R-6 High Density Multi-Family
zoning district.
Setbacks
Instead of standard zoning setbacks , the applicant has proposed :
Minimum Front Setback (along University Drive East)
Minimum Side Setback (between buildings)
Minimum Side Street Setback (along East Tarrow)
Minimum Rear Setback (along Tarrow Street)
Height
20 feet (normally 25 feet)
7.5 feet
15 feet
10 feet (normally 15 feet)
Building height will be regulated by GC General Commercial and R-6 High Density Multi-Family
base zoning districts. Building heights will range between one and seven stories .
Parking
Parking for residential uses will be 1 parking space per bed. Non-residential parking will be 1
parking space per 250 gross square feet with no increase for more intense commercial uses as
defined by the Unified Development Ordinance . Up to 20% of the parking spaces within the
parking garage may be compact spaces.
Other Meritorious Modifications
Off-Street Parking Standards : Minimum parking lot setback is reduced to 8 feet along Tarrow
Street with double landscape islands not being required every seven parking spaces .
Right-of-Way Dedication: No additional right-of-way is anticipated for University Drive East , East
Tarrow, or Tarrow Street unless needed for the additional turn-lane mitigation .
Non-Residential Architecture Standards : Accessory buildings and parking garages are exempt
from the requirements except that parking garages may be constructed of a pre-case concrete
product and painted to complement abutting buildings .
Planning & Zoning Commission
May 1 , 2014

Signage
The sign regulations for the base zoning districts of GC General Commercial and R-6 High
Density Multi-Family will be utilized for this development with the following modifications:
• Signs may be approved administratively by staff with appeals to staff's interpretations to
be considered by the Design Review Board ;
• Wayfinding signage (UDO Section 12-7 .5.AA Campus Wayfinding Signs) is permitted for
this development and may also be located at street intersections including driveways
with parking ;
• In addition to one freestanding sign , low profile signs are allowed at one per building ;
• Light pole signage may be utilized within the interior plaza area only and is limited to a
maximum of 14 light pole signs with 36 square feet per light pole . These signs are not in
lieu of freestanding signage , are intended as development identificat ion and special
event signage , will not be utilized for tenant signage, and do not count against attached
signage limitations ;
• Apartment Identification signage is allowed with two detached signs -one placed at
University Drive East and East Tarrow and a second placed at University Drive East and
Tarrow Street only advertising the subdivision , development, or area . No commercial
tenant advertising shall occur on the Apartment Identification signs ; and
• Attached signage is permitted for all residential and non-residential buildings .
o The residential portion of the public entry fa<;ade shall be calculated in the allowance
for attached signage square footage.
o The facades of the commercial-only buildings along University Drive East are to be
included in the public entry fa<;ade calculation.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval with the condition that an additional right-turn lane be provided on
southbound Tarrow Street at the intersection University Drive East and that the ordinance is not
effective unless a deed executed for purchase of the property is recorded in the Official Records
of Brazos County , Texas on or before September 15 , 2014.

specifics. Please let me know if you need anything else.
Thanks again for your quick response!

Natalie,
Thank you for turning this in, I had the chance to look over it this evening. We spoke very generally about some of the
modifications on Friday so I want to follow up on more of the specifics to see if we can tighten it up. As I'm out of the office
tomorrow for the Good Friday holiday, I'll be more descriptive to help explain the different points:
' 1) Off-street parking: A waiver to interior islands is requested but I don't believe it is needed as the proposed concept plan
; well exceeds any minimum requirement. One interior island is required for every 15 spaces . As islands can consolidated
together into larger islands to meet the requirement, the large plaza would cover all the additional island area needed so this
requirement is already being met. Perfect. We will remove this adjustment with the understanding that the plaza area counts
towards our interior island requirement.
2) Right-of-Way: A commitment for no right-of-way being needed is not appropriate at this point as the design of the
additional turn lane on Tarrow Street has not been done or reviewed by the City. The language in the Sub Regs allows the
flexibility at that point to require ROW appropriate dedication based on design considerations, or not require it if it's not
needed. The ROW issue is a big one for us. We would like to leave the adjustment request as is for now and continue
discussing the option included int the TIA -restriping the existing pavement to add the requested turn lane. We modified our
TIA estimates to include the additional lane and believe we can work within the existing ROW .
3) NRA Building Mass, Design & Materials: When the SC Suburban Commercial ordinance was written, a portion of that
section was formatted incorrectly such that it appears that flat roof are not allowed anywhere . This is not correct, only in SC are
flat roofs prohibited so a that modification is not needed for this request. As for the roofline, the standard does not apply
buildings over 3 stories. I'm not sure why the 1-story outparcel buildings would not meet the requirement or how these
buildings are different from other commercial buildings. If proposing a modification of this nature, a true community benefit
(creating or exceeding a standard not otherwise required of the development) would need to be provided. I understand the
flat roof clarification -we're allowed to have flat roofs on all buildings . However, on the 1 story buildings, no more than 66% of
the roof line may be on the same elevation. We agree to remove this adjustment and make sure that every roof line facing a
ROW must vary so that no more than 66% of the roof line is on the same elevation.
4) NRA Landscaping & Parking Screening : The double landscaping only doubles the site area points part of the calculation, not
the streetscape points calculation. There appears to be plenty of landscape and island areas where this requirement can be
met. We agree to remove this adjustment with the understanding that streetscaping points are not doubled.
1
5} NRA Accessory Building : I'm nots what accessory buildings are involved bu l ouple years ago there was a UDO
amendment that no longer requires architectural relief elements for accessory buildings that are not more than 25 feet x 25
feet i n dimens ion . This was in response to the pool house at Country Inn & Suites on Southwest Parkway . These buildings st i ll
need to use the same type of material as the primary buildings but I don 't see that as a large obstacle to meet. What is the
purpose of need i ng this one? The reason we included this adjustment is for potential restrooms near the pool, the outdoor
pavilion and other potential structures in the plaza . We're not opposed to using similar materials and colors, we just didn't
want to preclude an accessory building with minimum eave heights and articulation requirements .
i 6) Signage :
a. Wayfinding signage is usually restricted to PDDs of at least 20 acres. While I'm okay in allowing for this
development, I believe the allowance for commercial logos and graphics exceeds what is needed when
considering all the other allowances for sign age being made for this development. We agree to not incorporate
commercial graphics and logos on the wayfinding signage with the understanding that it is allowed with this
POD.
b. Measured at grade : The requirement to measure a sign's height based on the elevation of the street is only
written in the Freestanding sign section. This limitation does not apply to Low Profile or Apartment
Identification signs so the statement can be removed from both of those sections. Understood and we will
remove from POD with the understanding that staff will allow measurement from grade.
c. Light pole signs: Remove the "discretion of the developer" phrase for this section and replace with some
other standard . In Wolf Pen Creek, one sign is allowed for every 150 feet of frontage . This standard would still
allow plenty, more than ever could be desired , but at least not give the appearance that it is opened ended to
innumerable amount. Since light pole signage is only allowed within the plaza ar ea, we don't see this as an
issue . However, we agree to a maximum number of 14 light pole signs within the plaza area.
d. Apartment Identification signage : It is not clear what would be allowed . If a detached sign is allowed on
each corner AND a 1 attached sign per frontage (so 3 frontages), then five 100-square signs are allowed. This
seems excessive when considering all the other signage that is also allowed. I think we 're confusing low profile
signage and apartment ID signage -I know I have in trying to get a sign taller than 4' in height . In terms of
detached signs, here's what we would like :
• 1 Fre e standing Sign
• 2 E ntrance Si gn s -Th ese sign s w ill onl y adv ertise th e name of the area, such as Chimney
Hill or w h atever the name ends up b eing. They w ill not h ave te n ant signage, on ly the
n ame of the area w hi ch we h op e to be a destinati on . (I've called th em A partment ID
signs beca u se they 're 100 sq. ft . and can b e tall er than 4'.)
• We w ill r emo ve the additiona l Apartment ID sign at the entr anc e on E ast Tarrow.
• 3 Low Profi le Si gns -To u se anywhere on s ite -pad sites , Tarrow dr iveways , etc.
e. Attached signage : With the allowance for Apartment Identification signage, an allowance for residential
attached signage in addition to Apartment Identification signage seems excessive . Please remove the
residential allowance . Our thought process was to allow attached ID signage at the top of the building -7th or
8th story. If we use our ID signage there, we will not be allowed signage on the first floor at the entrance of the
building . We need additional attached signage on the first floor.
I apologize for providing so much detail but I hope it helps be clear in my thoughts as we are running short on time . I am
needing to submit the updated language as part of the draft zoning ordinance to Legal by noon on Monday. Please update
these items or at least respond to me by Monday morning so I can help this project proceed on time.

5) NRA Accessory Building : I'm not sure what accessory buildings are invo lved but a couple years ago there was a UDO
amendment that no longer requires architectural relief elements for accessory bu il dings that are not more than 25 f eet x
25 feet in dimension. This was in response to the pool house at Country Inn & Suites on Southwest Parkway. These
buildings still need to use the same type of material as the primary buildings but I don't see that as a large obstacle t o
meet. What is the purpose of needing this one?
6) Signage:
a. Wayfind i ng signage is usually restricted to PDDs of at least 20 acres . While I'm okay i n allowing fo r this
development, I believe the allowance for commercial logos and graphics exceeds what is needed when
considering all the other allowances for signage being made for this deve lopment.
b. Measured at grade : The requirement to measure a sign's he ight based on the elevat ion of the stree t is only
written in the Freestand i ng sign section . This li mitation does not apply to Low Profile o r Apartment Identification
signs so the statement can be removed from both of those sections.
c. Li ght pole signs: Remove the "discretion of the developer" phrase for this section and replace with some other
standard. In Wolf Pen Creek, one sign is allowed for every 150 feet of frontage . This standard would still allow
plenty, more than ever could be desired, but at least not give the appearance that it is opened ended to
innumerable amount.
d . Apartment Identification signage: It is not clear what would be allowed. If a detached sign is allowed on each
corner AND a 1 attached sign per frontage (so 3 frontages), then five 100-square signs are allowed . This seems
excessive when considering a ll the other signage that is also al lowed .
e. Attached signage: With the al lowance fo r Apartment Identificat ion signage, an allowance for residentia l
attached signage in addition to Apartment Identification signage seems excessive. Please remove the residential
allowance.

RESPONSE TO STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS NO. 1
Project: CHIMNEY HILL REDEVELOPMENT (REZ)-(14-00900076)
PLANNING
1. Revise the format of the Concept Plan so that the text, title block , and legend are legible at
letter size paper which is the size that it will be as an exhibit into the rezoning ordinance .
Also , please simplify the plan so as not to unnecessarily constrain future , desired revisions.
RESPONSE: Concept Plan and Rezoning Graphic have been reformatted.
The following responds to the Chimney Hill POD memo:
Permitted Uses & Bulk Standards
2. Permitted Uses: A permitted use is a pedestrian-oriented outdoor plaza designed for
community events. It is recognized that this area could be used for events though a Special
Event Permit will still be required for outdoor events where more than 250 people are
anticipated . RESPONSE: Noted. A special event permit will be required for events where
more than 250 people are anticipated.
3 . Setbacks : Remove the asterick for the Front Setback being able to be reduced to 15 feet. A
20-foot utility easement exists along the University Drive East frontage of Lots 3&4 and this
will need to be retained as University Drive East is a TxDOT facility , infrastructure is to be
placed outside of TxDOT right-of-way . In addition, the proposed setbacks do not comply
with #2 in Exhibit "F" of the RESPONSE : As discussed, this item has been removed from
the POD. Instead, we agreed to work with staff and identify specific areas of the site where
a waiver to the 20' setback will be necessary. We will follow-up with a memorandum of
understanding .
4. Building Height: revise the CG zoning district to be GC for General Commercial.
RESPONSE: Revised.
Parking & Dimensional Standards
5 . Off-Street Parking Standards: Remove the Alternative Paving and Curbing Standard . Per
the January 101h letter from the City, a lay down curb has been agreed to in order to achieve
the fire lane widths and maintain the one-way vehicular circulation around the plaza. It does
not appear from the Concept Plan that a reduced parking setback to 8 feet is necessary.
RESPONSE: As discussed, we have removed the waiver to the alternative paving and
curbing standards since this was previously agreed upon in the Economic Development
Agreement. Given the traffic improvements along Tarrow Street and constraints on site, we
have modified the parking lot setback to apply only to Tarrow Street frontage .
6. Block Length: As per #8 of the January 101h letter, this block meets current block length
requirements so this statement should be removed . RESPONSE: This has been removed
from the rezoning request.
7 . Right-of-Way Dedication : See Transportation comment regarding mitigation at Tarrow Street
and University Drive , right-of-way dedication may be necessary. RESPONSE: Current
solutions to the Tarrow Street intersection do not include additional right-of-way. It is our
desire to work within existing right-of-way if possible .
8 . Util ity Placement/Setbacks: See Engineering comment regarding building/utility separation .
RESPONSE: As discussed, this item is being incorporated into a memorandum of
understanding showing the potential conflict locations .
9 . Sidewalk Placement: The proposed sidewalks meet or exceed current standard, this section
can be removed . RESPONSE: This has been removed from the rezoning request
10 . Driveway Placement: See Transportation comment regarding driveway spacing.
RESPONSE: Noted.
Meritorious Modifications
11. Non-Residential Architecture Standards : There seems to be a lot of proposed modifications
that relate to building , parking and landscaping requirements for larger buildings plots. A
number of these could be satisfied by choosing to use the architecture standards for
Northgate. Let us discuss this alternative . RESPONSE: Our request has been modified to
reduce the NRA threshold from 150, 000 sq. ft. to less than 50, 000 sq . ft. based upon the
calculation of only the non-residential square footage .
12 . Signage : The request proposes numerous types of signage permitted in various districts
within the City. Let's discuss what is needed for the project and choose an acceptable sign
package based on a modified General Commercial/Multi-Family , Northgate , or Wolf Pen
Creek standards. RESPONSE: Our request has been modified to further clarify the sign
package. In addition, I've incorporated the framework for a memorandum of understanding
outlining what signs are allowed. This may help clarify the modifications we 're requesting.
ENGINEERING COMMENTS NO. 1
1. As in ongoing discussions, the proposed buildings have several conflicts with existing
utilities and easements that need to be removed , abandoned , reconstructed and new
easements dedicated , etc . RESPONSE: Noted. We 're in the process of working on the
abandonment application.
2 . Based on the sewer demands provided in the March 141h Bury letter there is adequate
downstream sewer capacity . Though no problem is anticipated regarding water capacity for
this development, this development will need to confirm specific fire flow demands in a
Water Report to confirm adequacy . RESPONSE : Noted.
3 . A 10-ft setback between buildings and new water and sewer lines has been requested with
this submittal. This deviates from the previous request which was reflected in the January
101h , 2014 agreement letter, Item No . 2 , as well as what is depicted on the Concept Plan . It
should be noted that the agreed setback were specific to public infrastructure , where private
infrastructure does not have same restriction. Specific locations where this is requested will
need to be submitted for consideration . RESPONSE : As discussed, we have removed this item
from the POD zoning request. Instead, we're preparing a memorandum of understanding outlining
the areas where the setback may pose a problem. We agree to work this issue out at staff level prior
to the POD being approved.
4. FYI, a City of Bryan Temporary Blanket Easement on Lot 2 is being processed to be
abandoned by the City of Bryan . This will need to be finalized to develop the corner in the
vicinity of Lot 2 . RESPONSE: Noted.
TRANSPORTATION
1. Please change the location of driveway F to line up with either Arguello Drive or the existing
private driveway. RESPONSE: Our driveway have been aligned with Arguello as
requested.
2. Although the intersection of University Drive E and Tarrow Street maintain a level of service
Das a whole , the south bound right turn onto University Drive E has a LOS F. Please show
that a second right turn lane will be provided on Tarrow Street with this development.
RESPONSE: Please see proposal in revised TIA. Our goal is to add the second right-tum
lane within the existing right-of-way. Please see our proposal and we can discuss further.
3 . The sidewalks at driveway D should be reconfigured so that pedestrians have a straight
crossing at the driveway instead of a diagonal due to the offset sidewalks . RESPONSE:
Danielle asked that this item be removed.
4 . Please submit a hard copy of the TIA for our files . RESPONSE: Submitted with the revised
Concept Plan .
FIRE
1. Additional discuss is needed regarding the fire lane access and coverage for this project.
RESPONSE: / left a message for Steve Smith to meet and discuss the fire lane and overall
coverage issues. Still working to schedule a meeting.
SANITATION
1. Will need to show dumpster sites on future site plans. RESPONSE: Dumpster locations will
be shown at the time of full site plan .
CHIMNEY HILL POD
//Redevelopment is critical for any community to thrive or even survive through
various development cycles and transitions. It is essential that redevelopment and
reinvestment in underutilized facilities and properties occur. n
City of College Station's Comprehensive Plan, Economic Development Master Plan
The City's Comprehensive Plan recognizes the importance of the subject property and the
University Drive Hospitality Corridor designated for general commercial and hospitality land
uses. In addition to the Land Use Plan and Community Character strategies, the Economic
Development Master Plan encourages redevelopment of underutilized facilities in prominent
areas of the city. Initiating a major redevelopment of the subject property ensures compliance
with the City's Comprehensive Plan and offers the following community benefits:
1. Creation of a more urban mixed use concept development within a highly visible,
underutilized property anchoring the western end of the University Drive Hospitality
Corridor.
2. Converting an underperforming land use along a Primary Image Gateway within close
proximity to Texas A&M University.
3 . Major redevelopment of a vacant property currently owned by the City of College
Station.
4. Creation of a destination opportunity for residents and visitors centered around a public
outdoor plaza area with unique shopping, dining and living opportunities.
5. Higher density residential development within close proximity to Texas A&M University
marketed toward young professionals within the community.
6. Implementing a major strategy in the City's Economic Development Master Plan -
supporting redevelopment and reinvestment. The Plan calls for the City to "continue to
lead the redevelopment efforts of areas such as Northgate and the University Drive
Corridor and continue to assist in the reinvestment efforts of private interests."
7. Encouraging mixed-use development. The City's Economic Development Master Plan
specifically recommends that the City "facilitate the development of retail, employment
and higher density housing in appropriate areas with an emphasis on integrated design
and pedestrian and bicycle traffic as viable transportation alternatives."
8. Providing additional retail and dining offerings for non-student populations. The city's
Economic Development Master Plan identified this element as a challenge within the
local economy.
In order to incorporate a residential component within the proposed redevelopment a rezoning
is required. The POD zoning classification is the only tool in the Unified Development
Ordinance (UDO) currently available to implement the vertical mix of uses and urban character
envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. Although not an ideal zoning tool for this application,
the POD is being used to establish these urban standards and stimulate the redevelopment of a
suburban commercial strip center into a more urban mix of residential and commercial uses.
The following are the development standards for the POD:
Permitted Uses & Bulk Standards
Permitted Uses
Maintain the permitted land uses within the existing GC General Commercial zoning district and
adding multi-family land uses per the R-6 High Density Apartments zoning district. Permitted
uses also include a pedestrian-oriented outdoor plaza designed for community events. Uses
within the plaza include a pavilion, tower architectural feature, outdoor sales, display and other
park-like amenities.
Setbacks
The following setbacks are proposed:
Minimum Front Setback (along University Drive) 20'
Minimum Side Setback (between buildings) 7.5'
Minimum Side Street Setback (along East Tarrow) 15'
Minimum Rear Setback (along Tarrow and Building E) 10'
Residential Density
Maximum residential density is thirty (30) dwelling units per acre per the R-6 High Density
Apartments base zoning district.
Building Height
Building height is regulated via the base zoning districts of GC General Commercial and R-6 High
Density Apartments.
Parking
In an effort to create a more walkable environment, a combination of traditional surface
parking and a parking garage will be used. The following parking reductions were based upon
three elements: (1) The City's suburban parking standards for commercial and residential land
uses; (2) The City's more urban parking standards found in the Northgate zoning districts; and,
(3) The projected parking demands based upon uses permitted via the PDD . The following
parking requirements are proposed:
Residential Uses
Non-Residential Uses
1 parking space per bed
1 parking space per 250 sq. ft.*
(*No increases for more intense commercial uses as
defined by the UDO .}
Allow up to 20% of compact parking spaces within parking garages .
Meritorious Modifications
Off-Street Parking Standards
Interior Parking Islands are not required.
Minimum parking lot setback of 8' along Tarrow Street including the removal of a
double landscaped island every seven parking spaces.
Right-of-Way Dedication
No additional right-of-way is anticipated for University Drive, Tarrow or East Tarrow.
Non-Residential Architectural Standards
Section 12-7.10 Non-Residential Architectural Standards will apply except for the following
modifications:
Building Mass, Design & Materials:
Flat roofs with parapet walls to screen mechanical equipment are permitted.
The flat roof or parapet along any fa~ade facing a public right-of-way shall not
have to vary and 100% of the roofline may be on the same elevation.

Parking Garages are exempt from NRA requirements. Parking garages may be
constructed of a pre-cast concrete product and painted to complement abutting
buildings.
Landscaping & Parking Screening:
The minimum landscape points for a site shall not be doubled to two times the
minimum landscape points.
Accessory Buildings:
Accessory buildings shall not be required to meet the NRA standards.
Siqnaqe
The sign regulations for the base zoning districts of GC commercial and R-6 residential will
be utilized for this development with the following modifications:
• Signs may be approved administratively by staff with appeals to staff's
interpretations to be considered by the Design Review Board.
• Wayfinding signage (UDO Section 12-7.5.AA Campus Wayfinding Signs) is permitted
for this development and may also be located at street intersections including
driveways with parking. Wayfinding signage may contain commercial logos and
graphics.
• In addition to one freestanding sign, low profile signs are allowed at a rate of one
per building.
• Low profile signs are measured at grade for height limitations, not based upon
adjacent curb height.
• Light pole signage may be utilized within the plaza area only and is limited to 36
square feet per light pole. These signs are not in lieu of freestanding signage, are
intended as development identification and special event signage, will not be
utilized for tenant signage, and do not count against attached signage limitations.
Total number of light poles and spacing is at the discretion of the developer.
• Apartment Identification Signage is allowed as follows:
o Attached to the residential building as permitted.
o Two detached signs -One placed at University and East Tarrow and a second
placed at University Drive and Tarrow only advertising the subdivision or
area. No commercial tenant advertising shall occur on the apartment ID
signs.
. ' .....
o Sign height shall be measured at grade .
• Attached signage is permitted for all residential and non-residential buildings.
•

2. Permitted Uses : A permitted use is a pedestrian-oriented outdoor plaza designed for
community events . It is recognized that this area could be used for events though a Special
Event Permit will still be required for outdoor events where more than 250 people are
anticipated .
3. Setbacks : Remove the asterick for the Front Setback being able to be reduced to 15 feet. A
20-foot utility easement exists along the University Drive East frontage of Lots 3&4 and this
will need to be retained as University Drive East is a TxDOT facility, infrastructure is to be
placed outside of TxDOT right-of-way . In addition, the proposed setbacks do not comply
with #2 in Exhibit "F" of the
4 . Building Height: revise the CG zoning district to be GC for General Commercial.
Parking & Dimensional Standards
5. Off-Street Parking Standards : Remove the Alternative Paving and Curbing Standard . Per
the January 101h letter from the City , a lay down curb has been agreed to in order to achieve
the fire lane widths and maintain the one-way vehicular circulation around the plaza. It does
not appear from the Concept Plan that a reduced parking setback to 8 feet is necessary.
6. Block Length : As per #8 of the January 1 oth letter, this block meets current block length
requirements so this statement should be removed .
7. Right-of-Way Dedication: See Transportation comment regarding mitigation at Tarrow Street
and University Drive, right-of-way dedication may be necessary .
8. Utility Placement/Setbacks : See Engineering comment regarding building/utility separation .
9. Sidewalk Placement: The proposed sidewalks meet or exceed current standard, this section
can be removed .
10. Driveway Placement: See Transportation comment regarding driveway spacing.
Meritorious Modifications
11. Non-Residential Architecture Standards: There seems to be a lot of proposed modifications
that relate to building, parking and landscaping requirements for larger buildings plots . A
number of these could be satisfied by choosing to use the architecture standards for
Northgate. Let us discuss this alternative .
12. Signage: The request proposes numerous types of signage permitted in various districts
within the City. Let's discuss what is needed for the project and choose an acceptable sign
package based on a modified General Commercial/Multi-Family , Northgate, or Wolf Pen
Creek standards.

ENGINEERING COMMENTS NO. 1
1. As in ongoing discussions , the proposed buildings have several conflicts with existing
utilities and easements that need to be removed, abandoned , reconstructed and new
easements dedicated, etc .
2 . Based on the sewer demands provided in the March 14 1h Bury letter there is adequate
downstream sewer capacity . Though no problem is anticipated regarding water capacity for
this development, this development will need to confirm specific fire flow demands in a
Water Report to confirm adequacy .
3. A 10-ft setback between buildings and new water and sewer lines has been requested with
this submittal. This deviates from the previous request which was reflected in the January
101h , 2014 agreement letter, Item No . 2 , as well as what is depicted on the Concept Plan . It
should be noted that the agreed setback were specific to public infrastructure , where private
infrastructure does not have same restriction . Specific locations where this is requested will
need to be submitted for consideration .
4 . FYI, a City of Bryan Temporary Blanket Easement on Lot 2 is being processed to be
abandoned by the City of Bryan. This will need to be finalized to develop the corner in the
vicinity of Lot 2 .

TRANSPORTATION
1. Please change the location of driveway F to line up with either Arguello Drive or the existing
private driveway.
2 . Although the intersection of University Drive E and Tarrow Street maintain a level of service
D as a whole , the south bound right turn onto University Drive E has a LOS F. Please show
that a second right turn lane will be provided on Tarrow Street with this development.
3. The sidewalks at driveway D should be reconfigured so that pedestrians have a straight
crossing at the driveway instead of a diagonal due to the offset sidewalks .

CHIMNEY HILL POD
NRedevelopment is critical for any community to thrive or even survive through
various development cycles and transitions. It is essential that redevelopment and
reinvestment in underutilized facilities and properties occur. n
City of College Station's Comprehensive Plan, Economic Development Master Plan
The City's Comprehensive Plan recognizes the importance of the subject property and the
University Drive Hospitality Corridor designated for general commercial and hospitality land
uses. In addit ion to the Land Use Plan and Community Character strategies, the Economic
Development Master Plan encourages redevelopment of underutilized facilities in prominent
areas of the city. Initiating a major redevelopment of the subject property ensures compliance
with the City's Comprehensive Plan and offers the following community benefits:
1. Creation of a more urban mixed use concept development within a highly visible,
underutilized property anchoring the western end of the University Drive Hospitality
Corridor.
2. Converting an underperforming land use along a Primary Image Gateway within close
proximity to Texas A&M University.
3 . Major redevelopment of a vacant property currently owned by the City of College
Station.
4 . Creation of a destination opportunity for residents and visitors centered around a public
outdoor plaza area with unique shopping, dining and living opportunities .
5 . Higher density residential development within close proximity to Texas A&M University
marketed toward young professionals within the community.
6 . Implementing a major strategy in the City's Economic Development Master Plan -
supporting redevelopment and reinvestment . The Plan calls for the City to "continue to
lead the redevelopment efforts of areas such as Northgate and the University Drive
Corridor and continue to assist in the reinvestment efforts of private interests ."
7 . Encouraging mixed-use development. The City's Economic Development Master Plan
specifically recommends that the City "facilitate the development of retail, employment
and higher density housing in appropriate areas with an emphasis on integrated design
and pedestrian and bicycle traffic as viable transportation alternatives ."
8. Providing additional retail and dining offerings for non -student populations. The city's
Economic Development Master Plan identified this element as a challenge with i n the
local economy.
In order to incorporate a residential component within the proposed redevelopment a rezoning
is required. The PDD zoning classification is the only tool in the Unified Development
Ordinance (UDO) currently available to implement the vertical mix of uses and urban character
envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. Although not an ideal zoning tool for this application,
the PDD is being used to establish these urban standards and stimulate the redevelopment of a
suburban commercial strip center into a more urban mix of residential and commercial uses.
The following are the development standards for the PDD:
Permitted Uses & Bulk Standards
Permitted Uses
Maintain the permitted land uses within the existing GC General Commercial zoning district and
adding multi-family land uses per the R-6 High Density Apartments zoning district. Permitted
uses also include a pedestrian-oriented outdoor plaza designed for community events. Uses
within the plaza include a pavilion, tower architectural feature, outdoor sales, display and other
park-like amenities .
Setbacks
The following setbacks are proposed:
Minimum Front Setback (along University Drive) 20'*
Minimum Side Setback (between buildings) 7.5'
Minimum Side Street Setback (along East Tarrow) 15'
Minimum Rear Setback (along Tarrow and Building E) 10'
*Minimum front setback along University Drive may be reduced to fifteen (15) feet when rear access is
provided or when parking is provided in the rear.
Residential Density
Maximum residential density is thirty (30) dwelling units per acre per the R-6 High Density
Apartments base zoning district.
Building Height
Building height is regulated via the base zoning districts of CG and R-6.
Parking & Dimensional Standards
Parking
In an effort to create a more walkable environment, a combination of traditional surface
parking and a parking garage will be used. The following parking reductions were based upon
three elements : (1) The City's suburban parking standards for commercial and residential land
uses; (2) The City's more urban parking standards found in the Northgate zoning districts; and,
(3) The projected parking demands based upon uses permitted via the PDD . The following
parking requirements are proposed :
Residential Uses
Non-Residential Uses
1 parking space per bed
1 parking space per 250 sq. ft .*
(*No increases for more intense commercial uses as
defined by the UDO.)
Allow up to 20% of compact parking spaces within parking garages.·
Oft-Street Parking Standards
Interior Parking Islands are not required.
Alternative Paving and Curbing Standards -utilize lay down curb, pavers, stamped
and/or dyed concrete to delineate parking islands, fire lanes, end islands, edge of
parking lot and other parking lot features . Fire lanes may occur on pavement as well as
lay down curb and sidewalk areas with adequate pavement thickness .
Minimum parking lot setback of 8' including the removal of a double landscaped island
every seven parking spaces.
Block Length
Allow for block length variances along University Drive, Tarrow Street and East Tarrow.
Right-of-Way Dedication
No additional right-of-way is anticipated for University Drive, Tarrow or East Tarrow.
Utility Placement/Setbacks
Allow a 10' setback between bu i ldings and new water or sewer lines. Allow a 20'
setback between buildings and existing water or sewer lines.
Sidewalk Placement
A meandering sidewalk with a min i mum 3' offset from the back of curb is planned
around the perimeter of the site as follows:
• University Drive -8' wide pavement
• Tarrow & East Tarrow -6' wide pavement
• Internal pedestrian walks connecting the outdoor plaza to the external system -
5' wide pavement
Driveway Placement
Driveway locations are allowed per the attached Concept Plan . Throat depth for
driveways on Tarrow Street may be reduced to 38'.

Mr. Doug Demiano
Senior Vice President -PM Realty Group
1000 Main Street, Suite 2400
Houston, Texas 77002
hi:..· Dear~:
As you are aware, Exhibit F to the Purchase & Sale Agreement between the
Research Valley Partnership and PM Realty Group (PMRG) identifies 11 items
that PMRG desires to accomplish during its inspection period for the purchase of
the Chimney Hill Shopping Center.
The purpose of this letter is to initiate the dialogue between city staff, PMRG, and
its design team regarding those items. Please keep in mind that this does not
constitute an official review by the City of College Station, but serves as initial
observations and current thinking based upon available information provided thus
far.
1. The property is currently in an Overlay District that causes some large
setbacks that will not fit with the urban feel of this design . The Buyer will
request that the City will remove the property out of the Overlay District
and allow 25' setbacks from all street frontages.
This could be accomplished through a rezoning to Planned Development
District (PDD) and removal of the property from the corridor Overlay (OV)
zoning district. Both actions could be requested with one rezoning
application. As part of the PDD rezoning, the applicant could request
alternative building setbacks .
2. The Water/Wastewater Dept. is requiring a 20' setback from its utility
lines. If a utility company installs a water line in the middle of a 20' PUE
plus the 20' setback then that pushes our buildings back to 30' from the
ROW. The Buyer will request that the City will grant this variance that
the buildings can be no more than 25' from the property line.
The Water Services Department is agreeable to the request.

3. There are several easements that will need to be abandoned. With the
phasing of the project some will need to come off at different times to
maintain fire protection or services to existing buildings. The
abandonment process is quite lengthy. The Buyer does not want to hold
up the project abandoning easements and would like the City to place a
new blanket easement over the site then abandon all easements. The City
can tell us when we can take utilities out of service. When complete then
Buyer can establish the new easements by metes and bounds description
post-Closing.
The City has previously agreed, pursuant to the Economic Development
Agreement Section 3.3.3(c), to reserve a blanket easement from the
conveyance of the property. Upon approval of the Approved Plans it will, by
recordable document, reduce and limit such easements to areas specified in
the Approved Plans.
It should be noted that private (franchised) utility providers may have
infrastructure or requests associated with their consent to abandonments.
4. The Fire Marshalls office wants to maintain 26' fire lanes with swing
room for an aerial bucket truck along the North drive of the center
courtyard. The Buyer would like for them to allow more narrow fire
lanes with a lay down curb so that the sidewalk can be utilized as a
portion of the fire lane.
The Fire Marshal's Office is receptive to the idea o.f lay down curbs.
5. The Buyer would like the City to eliminate some of the sidewalk
requirements where existing trees line the streets by allowing internal
circulation so that the sidewalk requirement doesn't cause removal of
existing streetscape trees.
The PDD rezoning could also be used to address this request. Staff would be
supportive of a solution that provides for pedestrian movements within the site
while retaining the existing streetscape trees along the site perimeter.
Mr. Doug Demiano
Page 3
January 10, 2014
6. The Buyer and City will work together to fmd mutual agreeable parking
requirements due to the mixed use nature of this development and be
willing to grant some variances of the current parking codes if the Buyer
can demonstrate effective parking ratios.
There are several possible ways to address this request. Section 7. 3 of the
Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) provides for alternative parking
plans. The UDO also allows the administrator to grant administrative
adjustments up to I 0% to parking requirements. Lastly, the P DD rezoning
could also be used to establish an alternative parking ratio.
7. The Buyer will submit its proposed elevations and architectural elements
during the Inspection Period for the garage and buildings, and the City
will confirm that these proposed design elements will be acceptable.
Staff will be happy to perform a review of proposed building elevations during
the inspection period for compliance with the non-residential architectural
requirements.
8. The Buyer and City will work together to achieve block length variances
that will integrate the proposed drives as per the proposed development
plans.
Based upon the street frontage of the site, staff does not believe that block
length variances are needed. However, if they are needed, variances can be
considered by the Planning & Zoning Commission.
9. The Buyer and City will work together in regard to obtaining Utility
Letters of Availability with regard to storm water, sanitary sewer and
domestic water systems.
The Water Services Department is ready to provide the Utility Letters of
Availability upon formal request by PMRG or its design team during either
the inspection period or the site plan process.
Mr. Doug Demiano
Page 4
January 10, 2014
10. City will provide written confirmation that the proposed development by
the Buyer will not require on-site detention.
The existing impervious condition of the property can be utilized as the
existing condition. If the future site grading is similar, detention will likely not
be required. However, a drainage report will be required to demonstrate that
flows are, at a minimum, not increased. Sta.ff recommends that sub-surface
(parking lot) detention be explored to improve downstream drainage.
11. The Buyer and City will work together in regard to the Traffic Impact
Analysis that the Buyer will conduct. City agrees to confirm what
requirements it will place upon the Buyer with regard to the proposed
development prior to Closing.
Staff will be happy to work with the buyer regarding the traffic impact
analysis (FIA). We recommend the buyer coordinate a meeting with our
Transportation Planning Coordinator at the outset to discuss the scope and
assumptions related to the TIA.
If necessary, staff would welcome a meeting to discuss the above items further or
any new items of concern separate from Exhibit F. In order to facilitate said
meeting, please contact Jason Schubert, Principal Planner with Planning &
Development Services, at 979-764-3697 or jschubert@cstx.gov.
Let me remind you that both City Council and staff are very excited for this
project and what it means to the community. We look forward to continuing to
work with you and your team as the project continues to move forward.
Sincerely,
~~

In regards to the fire lane access for our aerial unit, the lay down curbs can be an option. However, the divided
entrance off Tarrow will not be able to be divided as shown on the overview as it will also be a fire lane that
serves the leasing office and residential lobby building. Keep in mind that this is not an official review, it is only
initial observation of the site overview .
When the plans come in for official review Deputy fire Marshal Steve Smith will be handling this project.

Subject: Chimney Hill
Chief Hurt,
I wanted to follow-up with you regarding our last conversation about Chimney Hill. As a reminder, the prospective
buyer/developer (PMRG) provided the City a memo outlining items of concern of theirs that would likely need to be addressed
prior to closing. Some of the items were wish list items and others are more significant. There are a total of eleven items that
affect several different departments (e .g. PDS, Water, Legal, etc).
I'm working to provide an initial response back to the developer addressing each item with staff's preliminary thoughts and
stating that we would welcome discussing the details further. Below are the comments from the developer regarding Fire.
"4. The Fire Marshalls office wants to maintain 26' fi re lanes with swing room for an aerial buck truck along the North
drive of the center courtyard. The Buyer would like for them to allow more narrow fire lanes with a lay down curb so
that the sidewalk can be utilized as a portion of the fire lane."
Will someone from the Fire Marshal's Office provide their initial feedback and comments? I'd like to provide the response back
to PMRG before the end of the week .
If I need to clarify anything, please let me know.
Thanks for your help.

At this time, I cannot co mplete ly co nfirm t hat adequate capacity exist on th e w ater system side, as I'm no t sure what

No problem at all and tomorrow should be fine. Here is how I've noted the comment so far:
"There is adequate water and sewer capacity based on early provided densities, however the concept
plan densities are not explicit."
But if you can confirm there #s, then I'll re-do the note saying that densities per letter dated
xx are acceptable _,

abandoning easements and would like the Seller to place a new blanket
easement over the site then abandon all easements. The Seller can ~ell us
when we can take utilities out of service. When complete then Buyer can
establish the new easements by metes and bounds description post-Closing.
