Background: As part of the 2017 Plan of Work, City Council and Planning and Zoning Commission directed staff to review current city landscaping requirements, including streetscaping and buffer standards, and the water usage needed to maintain current landscaping requirements. Staff was also directed to explore options for water-conserving landscaping. Staff received feedback from stakeholders in the development community, neighborhood associations, and the general public on this item through two public meetings held in a “come and go” format on August 30th. On September 21st, Planning and Zoning Commission heard the results of this meeting and endorsed staff’s general recommendations at the time. Staff has further developed the specifics of this proposal and will now be seeking the Planning and Zoning Commission’s direction on the following:  Encouraging drought tolerant irrigation by increasing point credit from 10 percent to 20 percent for water-conserving irrigation systems.  Providing an extra 50 percent increase in landscaping points for Texas native plants.  Incentivizing the retention of older/larger trees by doubling the point values for each protected tree.  Creating administrative flexibility to waive buffer requirements adjacent to common area, and exempting buffers adjacent to FEMA 100-year floodplain.  Allowing Staff to adjust buffer width up to 5 feet if providing above and beyond minimum requirements for screening.  Removing the double landscape point requirements for building plots over 15 acres.  Removing the heightened 2.5-inch caliper tree requirement for building plots over 15 acres and allow these sites to meet the 2-inch caliper tree requirement of other sites.  Providing water conserving landscaping options, such as xeriscaping in lieu of sod.  Requiring buffer by developed/proposed use instead of by zoning district. This item is currently scheduled to be heard by City Council on Thursday, January 11th, 2018. 1101 Texas Avenue South, PO Box 9960 College Station, Texas 77842 Phone 979.764.3570 / Fax 979.764.3496 MEMORANDUM DATE: December 21, 2017 TO: Planning & Zoning Commission FROM: Lance Simms, Director of Planning & Development Services SUBJECT: Public Hearing Notifications Item Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an overview of current community notification requirements and practices for cases involving a public hearing as identified in the 2017 Planning & Zoning Commission’s Plan of Work. Background This item is included in the 2017 Planning & Zoning Commission’s Plan of Work. Under “educational/informational items”, the Commission’s Plan of Work states, “Review current community notification requirements and practices for cases involving a public hearing”. The purpose of this memorandum is to provide an overview of the types of public hearing notifications provided by the City, whether required or discretionary. Required Notifications When an item requiring a public hearing is to be considered by the Planning & Zoning Commission, the City is legally required to:  Post the meeting agenda on the City’s official website  Post the meeting agenda at City Hall at least 72 hours before the meeting  Publishing a notice in The Eagle at least 15 days prior to the meeting; and,  Mail a notice to property owners within 200 feet of the parcel under consideration at least 15 days prior to the meeting (applies to rezonings, conditional use permits, and certain replats). At a minimum, the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) requires that published and mailed notices provide:  The general location of the land that is the subject of the application;  The substance of the application, including the magnitude of proposed development and the current zoning district; P&Z Memo – Pg. 2  The time, date, and location of the public hearing; and  A phone number to contact the City Discretionary/Courtesy Notifications Based on past direction from the City Council, Staff also provides public hearing notifications that exceed the UDO requirements. For example, in addition to the notifications outlined above, registered homeowner/neighborhood associations are notified of rezoning requests when the parcel under consideration is located nearby. Also, as a standard practice, Staff places public hearing signs on the parcel under consideration. The sign provides the Planning & Development Services’ contact information and the type of case being considered (e.g., comprehensive plan amendment, rezoning, variance, or replat). Neighborhood Meetings Finally, Staff also encourages applicants to proactively reach out to adjacent neighborhoods and host an informational meeting before a comprehensive plan amendment or rezoning request is considered by the Commission and City Council. These meetings have proven beneficial to date and provide a forum for the applicant to present an overview of the proposed development or request while seeking feedback from neighborhood residents. The applicant often chooses to amend their proposal to address concerns raised by those attending the informational meeting. Recent examples include the Aggieland Outfitters rezoning and the University Town Center comprehensive plan amendment/rezoning. City Staff is also available to attend these informational meetings as needed or requested. Attachments: 1. UDO Section - Required Public Notices 2.

Case# ORDA2017-000013. Background: On November 16th, Planning and Zoning Commission endorsed staff’s recommendations on providing additional flexibility and leniency on how and to what extent non-conforming uses and structures come into compliance with current requirements. One of those items was to increase the amount an existing building or structure devoted to a non-conforming land use can be enlarged by right to 50% without needing to go to the Zoning Board of Adjustments. Staff is now modifying this proposal to exclude extending this right to areas designated as Neighborhood Conservation in the Future Land Use and Character Map. Areas with a Neighborhood Conservation future land use designation often were platted before current development regulations were in place, often resulting in non-conforming situations and the Comprehensive Plan states that these areas are appropriate for additional character protection and addressing non-conforming issues. Given this language, staff believes that the current non-conforming uses provision that allows up to a 25% expansion of non- conforming uses with the authorization of the Zoning Board of Adjustments, rather than allowing an expansion of non-conforming uses by right, better fits the direction of the Comprehensive Plan for these areas. Planning & Development Services  1101 Texas Avenue, PO Box 9960  College Station, TX 77840 Office 979.764.3570 / Fax 979.764.3496 In addition to addressing non-conforming uses, as previously discussed, the proposed ordinance amendment would:  Provide an administrative approval process that allows flexibility for existing non- conforming, non-residential structures where there are physical limitations that do not allow compliance with all UDO standards. In these situations, the Administrator would be allowed to make exceptions to parking and landscaping standards as well as reduce buffer width and planting requirements. The Administrator would not be able to reduce the number of parking spaces or landscaping points more than 50%.  Increase the total area of materials that can be changed or replaced on a non-residential buildings or multi-family building façade without requiring full compliance from 10% to 50%.

Expansion. a. For properties designated as Neighborhood Conservation in the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map: When authorized by the Zoning Board of Adjustment in accordance with the provisions of this Article, enlargement or completion of a building devoted to a nonconforming use may be made upon the lot occupied by such building, where such extension is necessary and incidental to the existing use of such building and does not exceed twenty-five (25) percent of the original area of nonconformity. b. For properties in all other areas: Buildings and structures devoted to nonconforming uses located within the area annexed by Ordinance No. 3331, adopted by the City Council on April 14, 2011, may be enlarged, extended, or structurally altered provided such enlargement, extension, or structural alteration is incidental to the existing use of such existing buildings and the enlargement does not exceed twenty-five fifty (2550) percent of the original area of nonconformity. Enlargements greater than twenty-five fifty (2550) percent of the original area of nonconformity shall require approval of the Zoning Board of Adjustment. 2. Conditional Use. A use existing on the effective date of this UDO, or subsequent amendment applicable to its use, which would only be permitted as a conditional use, shall be a lawful nonconforming use until altered pursuant to the Conditional Use Permit section of this UDO. In the event of issuance of a conditional use permit, such use becomes a permitted and lawful use. B. Termination. The City Council shall have the authority to initiate, on its motion, action to bring about the discontinuance of a nonconforming use under any plan whereby full value of the structure can be amortized within a definite period of time, taking into consideration the general character of the area and the necessity for all property to conform to the regulations of this UDO. C. Abandonment. Page 2 Whenever a nonconforming use has been discontinued and changed to a conforming use, or whenever a nonconforming use has been discontinued or abandoned for more than three (3) months, a presumption of intent to abandon said use shall have been established and the right to continue the former nonconforming use shall no longer exist. Subsequent operation as a nonconforming use shall be unlawful. (Ord. No. 2011-3355 , § 1(Exh. A), 6-23-2011; Ord. No. 2012-3449 , Pt. 1(Exh. M), 9-27-2012) Sec. 12-9.3. - Nonconforming Structures. A.

In NG-1, NG-2, and NG-3, the whole building plot must come into compliance with the requirements of this UDO when more than fifty (50) percent of a building(s) on the site is enlarged or altered. B. Termination. The City Council shall have the authority to initiate on its motion, or cause to be presented by interested property owner, action to bring about the discontinuance of a nonconforming structure under any plan whereby full value of the structure can be amortized within a definite period of time, taking into consideration the general character of the neighborhood and the necessity for all property to conform to the regulations of this UDO. C. Abandonment. Whenever a nonconforming structure has been discontinued or abandoned for more than three (3) months, a presumption of intent to abandon said structure shall have been established and the right to continue the former nonconforming structure shall no longer exist.
