LOCATION OF PROPERTY:
Address 351 Dominik
Lot 2A-2D Block A Subdivision Dominion on Dominik
Description if.there is no Lot, Block and Subdivision
Current Zoning of Subject Property: Zero Lot-Line Single Family
Applicable Ordinance Section: 5.2
ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT REQUEST
The following specific adjustment (up to 10%) from the ordinance requirements is requested: We are
requesting that the rear setback requirement for these lots (2A-2D) to be reduced from 20'to 18'. These lots
are positioned back to back with lots (2E-2J), which share a common drive separating them as they are all
parts of the same development. Because they share this common drive, ample space separates the units, 40
feet to be exact(20'setback + 20'setback).
This adjustment will not be contrary to the public interest by virtue of the following facts: The lots back up to
similar zero lot line lots with a common private drive. Assuming the request is granted, this drive
woud remain ample 38' wide.
The granting of the adjustment will not materially or adversely affect adjacent land uses or the physical
character of the uses in the immediate vicinity because of the following: These lots all are part of the same
development, "The Dominion on Dominik"
The granting of the adjustment will be consistent with the purpose and intent of the Unified Development
Ordinance because of the following: It will allow for the addition of 4 beautiful town-homes very close to the
campus of Texas A&M University for students, faculty, and/or retired old Aqqies who wish to return to College
Station on a lot that has been vacant since before 1991 when I first began attending school at the university
As an old Aq, I am very impressed with the development along University drive in the area now deemed
"Restaurant Row". I truly believe that the town-homes in question, could similarly spark a wave of
development close to campus which will 1) help address issues regarding a shortage of new housing in the
area, 2) with increased property values, will provide increased tax revenue for the city.
The applicant has prepared this application and certifies that the facts stated herein and exhibits attached
hereto are true, correct and complete.

RE: The Dominion on Dominik-Lots 2A,2B,2C,and 2D
Dear Mr.Lasher:
Staff has reviewed your application for an Administrative Adjustment of 2 feet (or 10%) to the
required rear setback for the above referenced properties and determined that it will not be granted.
In order to approve an Administrative Adjustment, the Administrator must make an affirmative finding
that specific criteria,as outlined in Section 3.15.E of the Unified Development Ordinance,have been met.
The criteria are as follows:
• Granting the adjustment will ensure the same general level of land use compatibility as the
otherwise applicable standards;
• 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;and
• Granting the adjustment will be generally consistent with the purposes and intent of this
UDO.
At this juncture, if you wish to pursue a variance,your case will need to be presented to the Zoning
Board of Adjustment. Please contact me at 979.764.3570 should you have questions or need
additional information.
Sincerely,
Lance Simms,CBO
Assistant Director of Planning&Development Services
