REZONING SUPPORTING INFORMATION
1. List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change necessary.
The College Station housing market has expanded in recent years resulting in an oversupply of 3 and 4 bedrooms
rental units. In respond to that and to meet the specific needs of a nice and quiet niche market, we are proposing a
development with a unit mix that consists of 9 & 2 bedroom units. The zoning change is in respond to the current
market needs of a development with 1 & 2 bedrooms mix near the Wolf Pen Creek area.
Revised 4/14 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.
This change is in accordance with the comprehensive plan for the area. The area is designated as urban on the
future land use plan. This land use designation is generally for areas that should have a very intense level of
development activities. These areas will tend to consist of townhouses, duplexes, triplexes and high-density
apartments. The Wolf Pen Creek area is a very desirable area for this type of development. This type of
development is helpful to reduce the stressed on on -street parking.
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?
This area has been redeveloped for the last several years to serve the students housing. The proposed
development will be sensitive to the design and character of the existing neighborhood. The development will meet
all UDO standards.
4. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the rezoning district requested.
The property suitable for triplex/multifamily uses as described in the designated as "Urban" on the future land use
plan. Adequate utilities are present for the proposed development. The development has only two street access
point and parking along the rear instead of the front, providing a much improved landscape across the front.
5. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
Since the current zoning is General Suburban (GS), this development will align with future land use plan. This
development is appropriate as it is best use of the property.
6. Explain the marketability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
We believed the oversupply of big houses with too many bedrooms in the existing market is not a desirable
situation. This development will improve the marketability and feasibility of the development in respond to the
UDO's regulation of the parking and the enforcement of the no more than 4 unrelated residents in a unit.
7. List any other reasons to support this zone change.
This development will give alternative housing to the general population. We believe this will improve the on -street
parking because of ample parking at the rear of the development. The proposed PDD will better serve and control
the 'no more than 4 unrelated residents" housing issue. This development will improve the quality living and
presentation to the neighborhood. This development will fulfill the future land use plan in the comprehensive plan f
the area with higher density housing near/close to TAMU campus.
Revised 4/14 Page 3 of 7
8. State the purpose and intent of the proposed development.
The purpose is to provide alternative high quality housing at a reasonable pricing and still be profitable. This
development is in response to the demands of the community of College Station residents for a quality living and
still meets the intended comprehensive plan of the city. The PDD will encourage responsible development of the
site in a manner that is compatible with future land use. This development will use sound energy efficient housing
principles in accordance with the US Green Building Council.

5. Explain 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 provides modern redevelopment of under utilized land, housing for the residents that will be
desired for many years to come and a higher density housing near/close to the TAMU campus.
6. Explain how the proposal is in conformity with the policies, goals, and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed PDD is in conformity with the "Urban" designation of the future land use plan. Urban -This land use
designation is generally for areas that should have a very intense level of development activities. These areas will
tend to consist of townhouses, duplexes, triplexes and high-density apartments. The proximity of this development
to TAMU campus makes this a very desirable project.
7. Explain how the concept plan proposal is compatible with existing or permitted uses on abutting sites and will not
M
adversely affect adjacent development.
The concept plan provides the prescribed buffering and set backs for the joining single family housing to the sides
of the property to multifamily housing. The property to the back is already zone R-4.

Revised 4/14 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 plan enhances the area by providing high quality alternative housing in an under utilized area. Neighborhood
property safety and value have been carefully thought through.
11. Explain how the concept plan proposal will not adversely affect the safety and convenience of vehicular, bicycle, or
pedestrian circulation in the vicinity, 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.
While the project proposes a high density units, the density of bedrooms and vehicles may not be any higher than
that of multiple single family lots with a high number of bedrooms. By providing only two access points of vehicle
entry and providing ample parking to the sides and rear of the project, the project discourages on -street parking
often found in large student oriented houses in the area. By providing housing within the bus system, and biking
distance to campus, this project reduces the overall impact on public infrastructure.
Please note that a "complete site plan" must be submitted to Planning & Development Services for a formal review after
the "concept plan" has been approved by the City Council prior to the issuance of a building permit - except for single-
family development.
