RE: 730 Earl Rudder Freeway, College Station Texas
Lots 2RA & 2RC, Block 1, Gateway Subdivision
Dear Mr. Wattel:
This letter is to inform you that the above referenced property has received an administrative
adjustment of six parking spaces to the 73 parking spaces required for the proposed 4,595 square feet
of restaurant space. This requirement is based on a parking ratio of one space per 250 square feet of
shopping center and one space per 65 for more intense use over 25% of the total square footage.
According to the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), Section 3.15, the Administrator has the
authority to grant an adjustment of up to 10 percent from any numerical zoning standard set forth in
Articles 5, 6, or 7 of the UDO. To approve the application for an administrative adjustment, the
Administrator shall make an affirmative finding that specific criteria, as outlined in Section 3.15.E of the
UDO, have been met.
The Administrator has found that:
Granting the 8.2% adjustment will ensure the same general level of land use compatibility as
the otherwise applicable standards because the amount of the adjustment is negligible and will -
not significantly alter the intensity of the land usei
Granting the adjustment will not materially or adversely affect adjacent land uses or the
physical character of uses in the immediate vicinity of the proposed development, because of
the significant grade change from adjacent restaurants and that this particular development is
not oriented toward the surrounding restaurant uses.
Granting the adjustment will be generally consistent with the purposes and intent of this UDO
owing to the fact that the reduction of six parking spaces is negligible.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 979.764.3570
