The summary includes the most stringent exaction methodology, to our existing policy of accepting dedications . The second attachment is Ted Mayo's considerations that he provided before he left . Since our December meeting, I met with Roxanne to discuss the issues ; and provided her with the name of an attorney that was involved in these matters while employed by the City of Denton. Additionally, I have piles of studies and reference materials , most of which were referred to me by Bobby Hernandez with the EPA, but a lot of research was also completed by Jennifer Mixon before my employment with the City . I'm looking forward to meeting again so that we can put this matter to rest one way or the other, and thought that we might meet once more before the joint City Council/Commission meeting in April. Attachments H o m e of Texas A&M U ni versity Implementation of Greenways into the Unified Development Code Purpose : Specification of various methodologies to incorporate acquisition of greenway properties into the Unified Development Ordinance. Main points to relate : 1. Greenway issues should be separated from the parkland dedication ordinance and be viewed in the context of flood control , water quality and quality of life . 2. Greenways will relate to parkland in terms of linkages and connections. 3. The City of College Station has approximately 2200 acres in the FEMA 100-year flood plain , 800 acres of that are developable ; approximately 600 acres are undeveloped . 4 . The. City should be viewed under two separate conditions; the currently developed stream channels in the northern part of the community, and the mostly undeveloped southern part of the community . Future development areas would also include areas proposed for annexation or located in the ETJ. The City can acquire the greenway in several ways . The following listing details the methods from most stringent to our existing methodology . Most stringent -Watershed-wide Base Flood Elevation (BFE): 100-year floodplain - fully developed watershed land use. Zero Rise through emctions similar to the method used by the City of Allen, Texas and other municipalities within the Rowlett Creek watershed. The 100 year base flood elevation (BFE) and floodplain used for design, planning and acquisition is evaluated upon total storm water discharge characteristics that will , through continued urbanization, be generated from a fully developed watershed . The City of Allen has a floodplain dedication ordinance that requires the dedication of all the 100-year floodplain area of primary creeks throughout the city. Dedication is required at the time of final platting . The City views creekways as stormwater channels, that serve additional dual purposes of offering open space and trail use. They also require the developer to construct hike/bike trails along the full length of the greenways at no cost to the City. The developers have constructed approximately 10 miles of trails, and charge higher lot fees for all lots across from the trails system. The City believes this is a part of infrastructure development . Furthermore, if the fully developed flood conditions keep water within the banks of the creek, the City requires the developer to dedicate enough land outside the floodplain to accommodate the trail ; this provides a buffer from creek bank erosion. They also require, where possible, that only single loaded streets be constructed adjacent to greenways . This allows for unlimited access in times of floods , .·' and it opens this space up for all to enjoy . No floodplain filling is allowed on an y of the primary streams. Zero ri se throug h exactions can be less stringent than the methodology used by the City of Allen which exacts based on ultimate development. The City of College Station currently uses the FEMA l 00-year base floodplain and we could continue to use those to avoid the expense of mapping the entire City . Flood plain areas within the City that are currently unmapped would require the developer to provide the information if the development is greater than 5 acres or 50 lots . Moderately stringent control measures would utilize the previously proposed zero rise ordinance language and incorporate the proposed riparian buffer ordinance. This method of protecting the floodplain only allows reclamation if: 1. There is no rise in the 100-year base flood elevation 2 . There is no increased flooding to other property 3 . There is no increase in erosive water velocity . 4 . There is no alteration of undeveloped portions of primary stream channels A proposal and power point presentation were previously prepared and presented detailing this method of floodplain/greenway protection. The riparian (stream) buffer portion of this method would require developers to provide buffers adjacent to stream systems which could be as small as 100 feet or could encompass the entire 100-year floodplain . A proposed buffer ordinance is attached . The least stringent method to acquire and protect floodplains and greenways would be to continue as the City of College Station has. This involves volunteer greenway dedications as new developments are brought into development services for review, and/or the actual purchase of the 100-year floodplain with the use of greenway bond funds . This method could be improved by requiring that the dedication occur when the first plat is submitted rather than at the end , and through the enforcement of erosion and sedimentation control measures before and during construction. COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF FLOODPLAIN/GREENWAY EXACTIONS 1. The developer would realize savings in stormwater retention/detention structures as the preserved floodplain could accommodate much of this need . We understand that the stormwater detention facility on the Crowley development cost the developer approximately $500,000 . 2 . The City would realize savings in the operation and maintenance of drainage facilities . 3. The state and federal permitting process for the development community would be streamlined . 4 . The City's long term liability may be reduced (i .e. San Antonio example). 5. Implementation of the City's requirements under Phase II of the clean water act would begin through the establishment of riparian buffers (water quality setbacks). Jhere are many other cost/benefit factors that the community realizes through the protection of these natural resources ; they include neighborhood quality of life improvements, habitat protection , and improved water quality . Section I. Background City of College Station, Texas Stream Buffer Ordinance DRAFT Whereas, buffers adjacent to stream systems provide nwnerous environmental protection and resource management benefits which can include the following : a) restoring and maintaining the chemical , physical and biological integrity of the water resources b) removing pollutants delivered in urban stormwater c) reducing erosion and controlling sedimentation d) stabilizing stream banks e) providing infiltration of stonnwater runoff f) maintaining base flow of streams g) contributing the organic matter that is a source of food and energy for the aquatic ecosystem h) providing tree canopy to shade streams and promote desirable aquatic organisms i) providing riparian wildlife habitat j) furnishing scenic value and recreational opportunity It is the desire of the City of College Station to protect and maintain the native vegetation in riparian and wetland areas by implementing specifications for the establishment, protection and maintenance of vegetation along all stream systems within our jurisdictional authority . Section IL Intent The purpose of this ordinance is to establish minimal acceptable requirements for the design of buffers to protect the streams, wetlands and floodplains of the City of College Station, to protect the water quality of watercourses and significant water resources within the City of College Station, to protect the City of College Station's riparian and aquatic ecosystems ; and to provide for the environmentally sound use of the City of College Station's land resources. Section ill. Definitions Active Channel: The area of the stream that is subject to frequent flows (approximately once per one and a half years), and that includes the portion of the channel below where tl1e floodplain flattens . Best Management Practices (BMP's): Conservation practices or management measures which control soil loss and reduce water quality degradation caused by nutrients, animal wastes, toxins, sedirnenl and runoff. Buffer: A vegetated area, including trees , shrubs and herbaceous vegetation, which exists or is established to protect a stream system, lake, or reservoir. Alteration of this natural area is strictly limited. Development: l) The improvement of property for any purpose involving building; 2) Subdivision, or division of a tract or parcel of land in to 2 or more parcels; 3) the combination of any two or more lots, tracts, or parcels of property for any purpose; 4) the preparation of land for any of the above purposes. Non-Tidal Wetland: Those areas not influenced by tidal fluctuations that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Non-point Source Pollution: Pollution which is generated by various land use activities rather than from an identifiable or discrete source, and is conveyed to waterways through natural processes, such as rainfall, storm runoff or ground water seepage rather than direct discharge. One Hundred Year Floodplain: The area of land adjacent to a stream that is subject to inundation during a storm event that has a recurrence interval of one hundred (100) years. Pollution: Any contamination or alteration of the physical, chemical, or biological properties of any waters that will render the waters harmful or detrimental to : public health, safety or welfare; domestic, commercial, industrial, agricultural, recreational, or other legitimate beneficial uses; livestock, wild animals, or birds; fish or other aquatic life. Stream Channel: Part of a water course either naturally or artificially created which contains an intermittent or perennial base flow of groundwater origin. Base flows of groundwater origin can be distinguished by any of the following physical indicators : l) Hydrophytic vegetation, bydric soil or other hydrologic indicators in the area(s) where groundwater enters the stream channel, in the vicinity of the stream headwaters, channel bed or channel banks 2) Flowing water not directly related to a storm event 3) Historical records of a local high groundwater table, such as well and stream gauge records. Stream Order: A classification system for streams based on stream hierarchy. The smaller the stream, the lower its numerical classification. For example, a first order stream does not have tributaries and normally originates from springs and/or seeps. At the confluence of two first order streams, a second order stream begins, and so on. Stream System: A stream channel together with one or both of the following: l) 100-year floodplain and/or 2) Hydrologically-related non-tidal wetlands Streams: Perennial and intermittent watercourses identified through site inspection and USGS maps. Perennial streams are those which are depicted on a USGS map with a solid blue line. Intermittent streams are those which are depicted on a USGS map with a dotted blue line. Water Pollution Hazard: A land use or activity that causes a relatively high risk of potential water pollution. Section IV.

Section VIL Buffer Management and Maintenance A) The forest buffer, including wetlands and floodplains , shall be managed to enhance and maximize the unique value of these resources . Management includes specific limitations on alteration of the natural conditions of these resources . The following practices and activities are restricted within Zones 1 and 2 of the forest buffer, except with approval by theTCNR. 1) Clearing of existing vegetation. 2) Soil disturbance by grading, stripping, or other practices . 3) Filling or dumping 4) Drainage by ditching, underdrains , or other systems 5) Use, storage, or application of pesticides , except for the spot spraying of noxious weeds or non-native species consistent with recommendations of TCNR 6) Housing, grazing, or other maintenance of livestock. 7) Storage or operation of motorized vehicles, except for maintenance and emergency use approved by the City of College Station . B) The following structures, practices , and activities are permitted in the forest buffer, with specific design or maintenance features , subject to the review of the City of College Station : I) Roads, bridges, paths, and utilities : a) An analysis needs to be conducted to ensure that no economically feasible alternative is available. b) The right of way should be the minimum width needed to allow for maintenance access and installation c) The angle of the crossing shall be perpendicular to the stream or buffer in order to minimize clearing requirements. d) The minimum number of road crossings should be used within each subdivision, and no more than one fairway crossing is allowed for every 1,000 feet of buffer. 2) Stormwater management e) An analysis needs to be conducted to ensure that no economically feasible alternative is available, and that the project is either necessary for flood control, or significantly improves the water quality or habitat in the stream. f) In new developments, on-site and non-structural alternatives will be preferred over larger facilities within the stream buffer. g) When constructing stormwater management facilities (i.e ., BMP's), tl1e area cleared will be limited to the area required for construction, and adequate maintenance access, as outlined in the most recent edition of the City of College Station's Stormwater Management Plan. h) Material dredged or otherwise removed from a BMP shall be stored outside tile buffer. 3) Stream restoration projects, facilities and activities approved by TCNR are permitted within the forest buffer. 4) Water quality monitoring and stream gauging are permitted within tile forest buffer, as approved by the City of College Station. 5) Individual trees within the forest buffer may be removed which are in danger of falling, causing damage to dwellings or other structures, or causing blockage of the stream. 6) Other timber cutting techniques approved by the City of College Station may be undertaken within tile forest buffer under tile advice and guidance of tile City of College Station Urban Forester, if necessary to preserve tile forest from extensive pest infestation, disease infestation, or tllreat from fire .

If you haven't yet done so, you might start by looking at the rig ht-of-way and land acquisition process . You can find the document on the p: drive under 'administrative polices and procedures'. f ~stions regarding easements vs. purchase, I think we have typically purchased fee interest for the greenways acquisitions. If we purchase easement interests, the appraisal report will typically value the property with only a slight discount, so it makes some sense to buy all of the interest rather than just an easement. But we can explore the benefits of purchasing easement interests if you have some thoughts on the subject. ~~ ontlh ~· When negotiati g to purchase land we offer the appraised value. In certain ci rcum stances we may, only if necessary to avoid condemnation, offer up to the amount it might cost to go through a spec ial commissioners' hearing -currently estimated at $3,000 -$5,000. We have talked about updating this calculation but have yet to do so. Any one of the attorneys may assist you with future land acquisitions so if you would like to meet you can schedule a meeting and include Angela, Mary Ann and myself. It will be nice to meet you.

I'll be taking on the land agent role as well as the project manager role and wha t ever other roles I'm not aware of yet :) so I would like to be prepared on how I should represent the City before I started meeting with landowners. Carla -I think you worked on the Resolution Determining Need for the Raintree properties with Mark M. and Bob Cow ell and didn't know if I shou ld be speaking with you directly. I'm currently working on th ese acquisitions with Gene B. A couple of questions I have so far include ... (I realize some of these may need to be directed to someone else) 1. At what point do you need to review the title commitment? 2.Where do we stand with conservation easements? I worked for the City of Raleigh, North Carolina and about half of the Greenway we had were easements. I'd really like to explore this opportunity. 3 . What's ou r liabilify on Greenway we purchase vs . easements? And the impl icatio ns for maintenance and emergency access points? 4. How much above the fair market value are we allowed to offer? The Land Agents have mentioned $3 -5 K. Thank you for your time and let me know who I should set up a meeting with . I look forward to meeting with y'all.

I would do the following ... Appraisal date is not pertinent to Council, I would delete it. Describe locations in layman terms (east side of SH 6 bypass, north of Raintree). Give a brief description of the current property use (grazing, future residential, etc). Give a brief description of the proposed use (bike trails, greenways, etc). If you are going to use it as a hand-out, then blow it up to at least 14 point type. Glenn has taught me that any handout needs to be very brief so the members will pay attention to you rather that reading a detailed sheet. >>>Judy Downs 08/16/01 01 :15PM >>> Mark, I am trying to develop a summary of appraisals as a comparison data base to show City Council. Mark thought that you would be the best one to provide information. Attached is a draft summary to let you know the type of information I wanted to provide . Can you help add to this?

Only the Recovery Land funds were granted ($200 ,000). • TPWD grants are being targeted this fall . We are participating in public hearings as changes are being proposed to their grant programs this fall . + Develop Guideline Incentives • Guideline incentives are part of the Oty's UDO. Several sections relating to greenway or flood plain dedication are yet to be addressed. Some connectivity issues were addressed as part of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan update. Currently, the City's transportation planner is developing Pedestrian Access policies and criteria. • A search of other cities ' incentive programs was done and is provided in this binder. Strategy #2: Regulation + Amend the Regulations • The UDO has not yet been amended to include a section on greenway development. • In 2003, draft guidelines for acceptance of greenways and a draft riparian buffer ordinance were developed. + Monitor the parkland dedication ordinance • Parks staff and the Parks Board continue to struggle with accepting greenways and to also meet their park needs. In some areas, parks adjacent to greenways are being accepted. This discussion is ongoing. Our analysis shows that the Parks department has accepted 54. 5 acres of park that are also greenways. This analysis suggests that the development community would rather dedicate greenways as parks since it contributes to their parkland dedication requirement. However, the Parks Department may not receive adequate space for the development of traditional recreational facilities. + Amend the City's drainage ordinance • The Director of Public Works drafted Drainage ordinance amendments . These changes are pending inclusion in the UDO. + Investigate overlay zones • Development Services staff does not recommend the rezoning of greenways (which are generally zoned AO) to a higher zoning classification. Leaving the greenway AO precludes intensive development. + Amend the Zoning Ordinance • This will be a function of the revised UDO. • Future annexations should require greenway dedication • This strategy is outstanding. The City's legal department does not believe we can require this. Strategy #3: Construction, Maintenance, and Operations • Acquire funding for greenway development . • $1 mHlion in Capital Improvement Plan funding to buHd hike and bike traHs was passed in 2003 in the City bond election. • Design and Construct trails • The bond funds should be leveraged with other monies. • Public traHs that have been constructed meet the plan guidelines, subdivision ordinance guidelines and AASHTO standards. • Develop a program for long term maintenance • Outstanding implementation strategy. It is proposed that an operations and maintenance plan be included in the master plan update. • Incorporate maintenance costs into future budgets • Outstanding implementation strategy. It is proposed this would be addressed along with the above goal of developing an operations and maintenance plan. • Design greenways in floodplains to handle flood water • Kristan Clann and Laura Harris attended a stream and riparian r~storation workshop in 2004. • As we negotiate for greenways, we have a goal of ensuring the floodway and floodplain are left undeveloped and in their natural state. Section #4: Coordination/Promotion + Funding a staff position • Strategy implemented with the hiring of a Greenways Program Manager. + Coordinate with other agencies • Staff has developed liaisons with TxDOT, the Army Corps of Engineers, US Fish and WHdlife Service, TAMU and others for program implementation . • Monitor and Advocate a Greenways System • Implementation continues through the Brazos Greenways Council. + Engage Neighborhood Associations • Meetjngs have occurred wjth several HOA 's. • Kristan js presenting at the September Nejghborhood Semjnar Supper. + Develop and maintain a detailed inventory • A student jntern worked on thjs project. The detaHed jnventory js also proposed as part of the Master Plan update and should be an ongojng project. + Provide for access to greenways • Ongojng, jn collaboration wjth the Parks Dept. + Develop and Maintain Public Information • Ongojng. 11,000 copjes of the greenways and traHs pamphlet have been djstributed and advertjsements were placed in the City calendar. • Through the task force recommendations, we wW update the greenways brochure to reflect the update. • Krjstan js workjng wjth BGC and (jty of Bryan to develop a comprehensive brochure of traHs in Bf CS and TAMU.

Since the City receives these properties when the final plat is filed, there can be damage from construction, siltation, erosion, etc. • Properties may be represented as "future greenway dedication" at the time of a rezoning request. The exact nature of the "dedication" is not firm. Sometimes it may be an actual dedication and other times, the landowner may negotiate for city acquisition . Sometimes those negotiations fail and the "future greenway dedication" never actually becomes a dedication. + Encourage Voluntary conservation, preservation and dedication of greenways by landowners • Developer educational packets have been sent out 3 times. • Kristan Clann Et Mark Smith have been stressing the value of greenways to neighborhood and homeowners. If voluntary dedications of -floodplain land can be worked out at time of platting, the developer is able to market those greenways as open space and can provide adequate drainage for the development through a natural means. + Develop a program for acquisition ' !Yu '\ • fhe City. has acquired229.4£acr s of greenway through fee simple acquisition. - • 239 acres of greenway negotiations failed for a variety of reasons (primarily appraised value). • These acquisitions did not necessarily follow the priority listing in the greenway master plan . • The City has acquired 7.05 acres through straight donation. + Acquire land acquisition services • The City hired a land agent in 2001. The greenway program manager generally handles greenway land acquisition negotiations unless they are part of another City project. + Pursue external funding sources • Grant applications were submitted in 2003 and prior for TEA-21 trail Greenway Bond Fund Expenditure Summary Bond funds approved : $3 ,640 ,000 Bond funds issued : 1999 500 ,000 200 1 500 ,000 2002 785 ,000 2003 1,000 ,000 Total issued 2 ,785 ,000 Remaining to be issued : Expenditures to date : gor Freeman Fire Station #5 C ity Center (pending) $855 ,000 Total committed to date Funds Ava ilable Pending Proj ects : $299 ,507 285 ,825 69 ,126 lL.:$;..;.;1 ,~7 4 __ 4 __ \ ~ 1,200 ,000 $1 ,856 ,202 $1 ,783 ,798 Alum Cree k 24 5 acres for $611 ,320 ($200 ,000 grant) Greenway Bond Fund Expenditure Summary Bond funds approved: $ 3,640 ,000 Bond funds issued: 1999 $ 500 ,000 2001 $ 500 ,000 2002 $ 785 ,000 2003 $ 1,000 ,000 Total issued $ 2,785,000 Remaining to be issued: $ Expenditures to date: AS400 Project to date (8/22/03 ) Craegor Freeman Fire Statio n #5 City Center (pendi ng ) 855 ,000 Total committed to date Funds Av ailable Pending Projects: Alum Creek Shenandoah SIZE (ac) Appraised Value 245 $ 611 ,320 -6 $ 299 ,507 $ 285 ,825 $ 69 ,126 $ 1,744 $ 1,200 ,000 $ 1,856 ,202 $ 1,783 ,798 City of College Station Greenway Program Property Purchase Encumberances Owner Appraisal Acreage Freeman (for Parks) $65 ,000 67 Craegor (ED parcel) $285 ,852 102.9 Swoboda (trail) $210 ,000 54 .7 Schultz $40 ,000 Marsh Reeves $182 ,081 8.36 OD Butler $340 ,000 17.03 Ritchie Method ist Church 1.88 Thurmond (Fire Station) $69 ,696 1 .6 City Center $800 ,000 1992629 Owner (Use) Craegor (greenway and ED) Craegor (ED) Freeman Hartzell Elkins (greenway) Hartzell Elkins (greenway) Marsh Reeves (ED) McGill (greenway) Swoboda (greenway) KTH Kapchinski Kapchinski Rain tree Development Marsh Reeves (greenway) OD Butler Thurmond (Fire Dept) City of College Station Appraisal Summary Thursday, January 24, 2002 Location Acres Value ($/acre) Thomas 234.81 $1,760,000 Caruthers $7 ,495/acre League, Abstract 9 Robert 16 .89 $350,000 Stevenson $20, 722/acre League, Abstract 54 67 $8,507 /acre Lots 1-10, 10 lots $104,611 Block 6 Sun ($10,461/lot) Meadows Robert .6479 $6,500 Stevenson $10, 0 3 2/ acre League, Abstract 54 38 $21,780 Morgan 6.4 $207,589 Rector $32,284/acre .'l4 Abstract 46 Morgan 54.70 $210,000 Rector $3,838.85/acre Abstract 46 8.183 $20,000 49 $30,556 46 $11,440 7.97 $40,000 \\.<~ $5,019/acre 8 .36 $182,081 $21,780/acre 17.03 $340,000 $19 ,964/acre 1.6 $69,696 $43,560/acre \ .oo PROJECT: FUND: PROJECT MANAGER: PROJECT CLIENT: GREENWAYS PROJECTS PROJECT#: SD9903 912 -DRAINAGE UTILITY FUND PROJECT BUDGET: $3,640,000 FUNDING Venessa Garza SOURCES: General Obligation Bonds Planning & Development Services PROJECT DESCRIPTION/STATUS This proj ect serves to hold funds for new greenways projects .
