MEMORANDUM
March 6, 2003
TO: Design Review Board
FROM: Molly Hitchcock
Email: mhitchcock@ci.college-station.tx.us
SUBJECT: Possible rezoning of the property at the corner of Holleman and
Texas from WPC Wolf Pen Creek Development Corridor to C-1 General
Commercial
Item: Discussion and possible action on a recommendation to the Planning and Zoning
Commission to initiate a rezoning of Lot 1 and a portion of Lot 2, Block 3 of the Pooh's
Park Subdivision from WPC Wolf Pen Creek Development Corridor to C-1 General
Commercial.
Item Summary: Rezonings in the Wolf Pen Creek area from WPC to C-1 have isolated
a small area of WPC at the corner of Holleman and Texas. At their March 6, 2003
workshop, the Planning and Zoning Commission will consider initiating a rezoning of the
subject properties to C-1. As the review board of the district, the DRB is asked for their
recommendation as to whether this rezoning should be pursued.
At this time, the subject properties (the Homestead Center and a portion of Jot Cleaners)
are required to go through the design review process and meet the standards of the
WPC zoning district for any changes to the sites. All other properties west of the George
Bush Drive extension and south of Wolf Pen Creek (except for Washington Chapel
Baptist Church) have only to meet the standards of C-1.
Item Background: In 1989 City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1819, which created the
Wolf Pen Creek Development Corridor and defined its boundaries. The Upper Corridor-
North included the tracts of land between Texas and Dartmouth and Harvey and
Holleman. Since the initial rezoning, George Bush Drive was extended through the
Upper Corridor and there have been six rezonings to C-1 in the area west of the
extension.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The whole area defined in Ordinance No. 1819
as WPC is still shown on the Land Use Plan as WPC. The rezonings that have occurred
since 1989 indicate to staff that Retail Regional is an acceptable alternative at the corner
of Holleman and Texas. The Wolf Pen Creek Master Plan shows this area to be
commercial, with an entry/focal point at or near the church property.
