(2q): Jeff Kersten, Assistant City Manager, clarified the location of the MRC Senior Living

5. Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding the City of College Station
Capital Plan.
Donald Harmon, Director of Public Works, presented an update on capital projects at the
Council’s request, following the public meetings by the Citizens Advisory Committee. In the
process, each department identifies its needs and prioritizes those projects. Projects may not be
completed in the order of prioritization dependent on costs, available funding, design duration,
etc. He noted that the draft capital plan does not include proposed bond projects.
6. Presentation, possible action, and discussion on the 2015 Bond Citizen Advisory
Committee’s prioritized project recommendations for the potential 2015 bond election and
funding alternatives.
Chuck Gilman, Deputy City Manager, provided an overview of the CAC’s recommendations,
staff’s recommendations, and the advantages and disadvantages of the funding options available.
Certificates of Obligation could be utilized for several projects: Greens Prairie Trail Safety
/improvements; UPRR grade crossing at Capstone; FM2818 capacity improvements design;
Holleman Drive South widening design; and Police Station design.
WKSHP081315Minutes Page 3
Other projects could be paid with cash: traffic signals; sidewalks and oversized participation;
system-wide park improvements; and a Community Center study. General Obligation bonds
would be used for UPRR grade crossings and road improvements; neighborhood street
improvements; Greens Prairie and Royder Road safety improvements; Holleman Drive South
widening; and Rock Prairie Road improvements.
Jeff Kersten, Assistant City Manager, stated that General Obligation Bonds require voter
authorization through a Bond Election, which College Station has traditionally held. There is a
cost associated with holding an election. The bonds would be issued over a multi-year period.
As for Certificates of Obligation, Council can authorize the is suance of CO’s. Notice of intent to
issue CO’s must be publicized 30 days prior to issuance; citizens may voice their opposition to
issuance by petition. CO’s can be issued over a multi-year period. The bond market does not
consider CO’s and GO’s differently; the same bond rating applies, and they trade the same on the
market.
Three options were provided. Option 1 is to hold a bond election for the projects identified by
the CAC and issue GO’s. Option 2 includes issuing CO’s, holding a bond election, and using
cash on some projects, and consider the use of CO’s or hold a bond election in 2016 for facility-
related projects. Option 3 looks at issuing CO’s and using cash on some projects, with a
possible bond election or use of CO’s in 2016 for facility-related projects.
Staff recommends Option 3 -- issuing Certificates of Obligation for all of the transportation
projects and the design of a Police Station; paying cash for sidewalks and oversize participation,
traffic signals, system-wide park improvements, and the study/evaluation for a Community
Center. Additionally, a bond election or CO’s would be considered in 2016 for the Police
Station, Fire Station, and/or a Community Center. This addresses the projects prioritized by the
Citizens Advisory Committee and includes additional transportation projects. It also allows time
to plan and design the police station and allows time to further study Community Center options.
Council consensus was to go forward with staff’s recommendation to proceed with Option 3.
7. Presentation, possible action, and discussion on the FY 2015-2016 Proposed Budget.
Jeff Kersten, Assistant City Manager, presented the proposed FY 2015-2016 budget, which
breaks down to $217,465,476 for Operations and Maintenance and $86,650,959 for total capital,
resulting in a total proposed net budget of $304,116,435. Staff is proposing maintaining the
current tax rate of 45.25 cents per $100 valuation.
Budget workshop meetings are scheduled for August 17th, August 18th, August 19th (if needed),
and August 20th (if needed) to review the proposed budget and the key budget decision points.
Public Hearings on the tax rate are scheduled for September 2 and 10. The Public Hearing on the
budget will be held on September 10. Adoption of the budget and the tax rate is scheduled for
September 21.

pavement width, the City of College Station Fire Department needs the parking to be removed on
both sides of Munson Drive from Rose Circle to Dominik Drive.
The City of College Station Traffic Management Team considered t he Fire Departments request
and recommends that the parking removal ordinance be approved prior to the design moving

Restricted Suburban and 3.732 acres of SC Suburban Commercial, both tracts being
located in the Thomas Caruthers League, Abstract No.9, College Station, Brazos County,
Texas. Said Tracts being portions of the remainder of a called 26.25 acre tract as described

Jennifer Prochazka, Planning and Development Services, reported that staff has received from

The applicant has proposed an eight-foot tall wooden fence along the rear property line of three
lots adjacent to the arena. Three trees will also be planted on each of the three adjacent lots.
Tony Jones, applicant, came before Council to address some of the concerns expressed by the
adjacent property owners, such as landscape buffering and light pollution.
Jeffery Leatherwood, 4618 Midsummer Lane, manager of the Flying Ace Ranch, reported that
the rodeo arena is the heartbeat of their business, and the tenants train at night.
Tim Spiars, 3101 Robert Drive, Richardson, said the main concern are the lights. He provided
drawings demonstrating the line of sight. The solution does not work. There has not been a
work session to discuss options. He proposes eastern red cedars with ten-twelve foot centers
within the ten-foot buffer. The fence should be board-on-board to eliminate any gaps and
extended down to the first paddock. That should block just about anything. The fence could
transition to a six-foot after that point.
John Spiars, 4100 Ryan Lane, stated they are an existing business. When people start calling the
police to complain about the lights, it will adversely impact them. They have invested a
substantial amount.

revenue of $27.59 million.
Ad valorem taxes account for 27.14% of our general fund revenues. Our certified property
valuation is $7.14 billion, for an approximate 7.31% increase in value over last year. $215
million is a new value. We are continuing to see growth on the property value side. Our current

revenues coming into the General Fund will be $18.3 million, and the Debt Service Fund portion

Staff recommends Council approval.
Summary:
The College Station Police Department has four surplus radar units that the City of Normangee can
utilize for law enforcement purposes. The City of Normangee will purchase four (4) radar units from
the City of College Station for $1.00. The nominal amount is because the City of Normangee will
incur installation costs. Additionally, it is believed that if the items were auctioned, it would cost the
City of College Station more to post the items to auction than what could be recovered for them.

Presentation,possible action,and discussion regarding approval of City of College Station General
Service Contract with Buyers Barricades for $77,420 to deploy and remove traffic control devices
according to the Texas A&M Football Post GameTraffic Control Plan.

Summary: On November 24, 2014, the City Council approved an Interlocal Agreement (ILA) between
the City of College Station and Texas A&M University to equally share in the cost of deployment and
purchase of traffic control devices that will be used to implement the Game Day Traffic Control Plan.
Then on January 8, 2015, City Council approved a budget amendment to provide the necessary
funds to begin purchasing the traffic control equipment. The first purchase was made after the July
9, 2015 meeting when Council approved the purchase of 12 portable changeable message boards.
On July 14, 2015, the City started advertising to receive bids on the deployment of the game day
traffic control devices. On July 28, two bids were submitted and opened. The low bidder, Buyers
Barricades out of Houston, Texas, submitted the lowest bid at $11,060 per game. This comes to a
total of $77,420 for the seven football games during the 2015 football season.

Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an Infrastructure and Economic Development
Agreement with Pappas Restaurants, Inc. for the redevelopment of approximately 4.37 acres at 1600
University Drive, Lot 1, Block 16 of the Glenhaven Estates Phase 6 Subdivision.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
·Diverse Growing Economy
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the Infrastrucutre and Economic Development
Agreement.
Summary: Pappas Restaurants, Inc. purchased the existing vacant medical clinic for the
development of a new restaurant in the University Drive Corridor. Original plans for the site included
preserving the existing buliding that was originally constructed over the top of an existing creek prior
to minimum drainage design standards adopted by the City. The modified creek under the building
serves as the public drainage system outfall for the adjacent Glenhaven Estates Subdivision.
Current drainage design standards would not allow the existing configuration and it is in the best
interest of the City and Pappas Restaurants, Inc. to relocate the drainage away from the building.
We have worked together on the attached Infrastructure and Economic Development Agreement that
provides for the re-routing of the drainage system, dedication of public utility easements and
compliance with modern drainage standards. The City's participation in the drainage improvements
totals $127,430. Pappas Restaurants, Inc. has agreed to complete construction of the new
restaurant by September 1, 2016.
Budget & Financial Summary: The City's portion of the drainage improvements are available via the
Drainage Fund.

Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion of an ordinance amending Chapter 10,
“Traffic Code”, Section 4 “Administrative Adjudication of Parking Violations”, E “Parking Regulations
of Certain Described Areas”, (1) “Traffic Schedule XIV - No Parking Here to Corner or No Parking
Anytime”, of the Code of Ordinances, to remove parking along Renee Lane.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
·Improving Mobility
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.
Summary: This ordinance is for no parking anytime along both sides of Renee Lane between Barron
Road and the termination of the roadway 260 feet north of Passendale Lane.
This parking removal is needed to provide sufficient travel width for the City of College Station Fire
Department to respond to calls along this roadway and to local residents.
The Traffic Management Team evaluated this roadway because of a request from a citizen to remove
parking along the roadway because they were having trouble accessing their homes. During the
evaluation, the Fire Department determined that parking along Renee Lane would affect their ability
to respond to an emergency in the area.
On July 28, 2015, City of College Station staff held a public meeting to dicuss no parking with
property owners and residents that own property or live on Renee Lane. Seven people attended this
meeting, and all seven people support this ordinance. Traffic Engineering also received an email
from another resident that could not attend the meeting. That person also supports this ordinance.

Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item on August 6, 2015
and voted 6-0 to approve the rezoning request. City staff also recommends approval of the PDD
zoning.
Summary: The applicant has requested a PDD Planned Development District rezoning based on the
MU Mixed Use zoning district for the development of a multi-story hotel with a parking garage. The
MU district allows hotel uses to meet both the residential and non-residential requirements. The
properties are currently developed as single-family homes and a restaurant, but proposed to be
consolidated for redevelopment.
REZONING REVIEW CRITERIA
1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject area is designated on the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map as Urban and Redevelopment. The
Comprehensive Plan states that this designation is for areas that should have the most intense
level of development consisting of vertical mixed use and other aspects of urban character. The
proposed zoning permits mixed-use along University Drive East, allowing the property to be
redeveloped consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood: The property immediately to the north is developed
with apartment buildings and a cell tower. Properties to the east are developed as single-family
homes, generally not compatible with a hotel with a structured parking garage. These homes,
however, are designated for redevelopment to urban densities in the future. To the west, across
Jane Street, and to the south, across University Drive East, properties are developed as office,
retail and restaurant and are compatible with the proposed hotel development.
3.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: The property is in close
proximity to Texas A&M University, with frontage to University Drive East and access to two local
streets. With the appropriate upgrades to existing utility infrastructure at the time of private
development of the property (as discussed below), the subject property is suitable for the
proposed hotel use and other uses permitted by the MU Mixed Use base zoning district.
4.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The majority of
the property is currently zoned for O Office, but developed as single-family homes. The
properties are suitable for office development. The portion of the property with frontage to
University Drive East is currently zoned GC General Commercial and developed as a restaurant.
The property is suitable for the restaurant use and other uses permitted in the GC district.
5.Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:The subject
property is marketable with its current zoning of O Office and GC General Commercial, however,
the requested rezoning allows for the consolidation and redevelopment of properties into a mixed-
use development.
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use: Water distribution and sanitary sewer
infrastructure is limited immediately adjacent to the property. The waterlines in the area are
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 2 of 5
powered by Legistar™
File #:15-0468,Version:1
currently undersized for the proposed use and will have to be upgraded by the developer with this
project. The developer will provide the necessary waterline improvements to serve the
development. The newly constructed Cooner Street sewerline has sufficient capacity for this
development, however sewerline upgrades from the subject property to the Cooner Street line
may be required by the developer at the time of site development.
The subject property is located in the Burton Creek Drainage Basin and development of the
subject property is required to meet the minimum standards of the City’s Storm Water Design
Guidelines. The subject property is not encroached by a Special Flood Hazard Area per FEMA
FIRM Panel 215F.
The subject property has frontage on University Drive East, a 6-lane Major Arterial on the City’s
Thoroughfare Plan. The property has access to Jane Street and Eisenhower Street, both local
streets.
REVIEW OF CONCEPT PLAN
The Concept Plan provides an illustration of the general layout of the proposed building and parking
areas as well as other site related features. In proposing a PDD, an applicant may also request
variations to the general platting and site development standards provided that those variations are
outweighed by demonstrated community benefits of the proposed development. The Unified
Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria as the basis for reviewing PDD
Concept Plans:
The proposal will constitute an environment of sustained stability and will be in harmony with the
character of the surrounding area;
The proposal is in conformity with the policies, goals, and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan, and
any subsequently adopted Plans, and will be consistent with the intent and purpose of this
Section;
The proposal is compatible with existing or permitted uses on abutting sites and will not adversely
affect adjacent development;
Every dwelling unit need not front on a public street but shall have access to a public street directly or
via a court, walkway, public area, or area owned by a homeowners association;
The development includes provision of adequate public improvements, including, but not limited to,
parks, schools, and other public facilities;
The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, welfare, or materially injurious to
properties or improvements in the vicinity; and
The development 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 reasonably anticipated in the area considering existing zoning and
land uses in the area.
General
The Concept Plan includes the consolidation and redevelopment of properties for a hotel and
structured parking. The buildings are multi-story and placed close to the street to create an urban
character. A small surface parking lot is proposed at the corner of University Drive East and Jane
Street and an access drive connecting Jane Street to Eisenhower Street at the rear of the property.
The proposed Concept Plan includes new sidewalk along all rights-of-way, which will provide
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 3 of 5
powered by Legistar™
File #:15-0468,Version:1
opportunities for safe pedestrian activity. As redevelopment occurs in the area, more sidewalks will
be built and create a network of pedestrian facilities.
Building Height - The hotel building will be approximately 95 feet tall and the two-level parking garage
will be approximately 25 feet tall, at the highest point.
Drainage - The applicant states that the site sits at a hilltop and drainage from the site flows in four
directions: to the northeast along University Drive East, to the southwest along University Drive East,
to the west along Jane Street, and to the west along Eisenhower Street. The site will be graded to
match or reduce the flows along University Drive East by reducing the drainage area, and the flows
along Jane Street and Eisenhower Street will be matched or reduced by underground stormwater
detention.
Requested Modifications
The applicant has requested the following modifications from the requirements of the Unified
Development Ordinance (UDO).
1.Maximum Front Setback Requirement-The applicant has requested to vary from UDO
Section 12-5.2 “Residential Dimensional Standards,” specifically the maximum front
setback requirement. The MU district requires a maximum front setback of 15 feet. The front
setback may be increased to 85 feet to accommodate parking between the street and the
building. Parking has been provided in front of the building, however, the driveway from Jane
Street to the parking lot is required to be placed at least 130 feet from University Drive East to
provide safer driveway spacing. This driveway and parking area also provides required fire
truck access to ensure proper building fire protection coverage.
2.Required Cross-Access Between Commercial Sites - The applicant has requested to
vary from UDO Section 12-7.4.B.2 “Cross-Access Easements.” Developing and
redeveloping properties are required to provide cross-access to adjoining properties. Two
potential locations were identified for an easement: across the front of the properties and
through the parking lot along University Drive East, or across the properties along Eisenhower
Street. The applicant states that as the hotel guest drop-off area there are safety concerns for
the guests if through-traffic were allowed through the lot. The applicant also states that the
alternative location along Eisenhower Street interferes with the amount of buildable area and
placement of the garage. As an alternative, the Concept Plan includes a pedestrian cross
access sidewalk along the front of the properties as well as cross access between Jane Street
and Eisenhower Street at the rear of the property.
These properties sit on a small block of land where cross-access would not serve the same
purpose for vehicular circulation as it would on a larger piece of property, such as a large
shopping center with several pad sites. The cross-access at the back of the property will
provide an alternative for crossing between Jane Street and Eisenhower Street without
interfering with University Drive traffic. Cross-access easements also allow consumers the
ability to access adjacent properties without leaving the larger property. The applicant states
that it is unlikely that the consumers using the neighboring property would need to access the
hotel; however, the guests who would like to access the adjacent property may utilize the
sidewalk along the front of the properties as a safe pedestrian alternative.
3.Non-Residential Architectural Standards for the Parking Garage - The applicant has
requested to vary from UDO Section 12-7.10 “Non-Residential Architectural Standards”
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 4 of 5
powered by Legistar™
File #:15-0468,Version:1
(NRA) for the parking garage. A two-level garage is proposed. As a non-residential structure,
it is required to meet the NRA standards, including requirements for building materials, façade
and roofline articulation, architectural relief, and building colors. The applicant states that the
required architectural relief elements for both the horizontal façade and roofline present
construction challenges as garages are typically built using precast concrete walls. As an
alternative, the applicant is offering to use a green screen as a form of horizontal architectural
relief at the same percentage standard (no more than 66 percent of the façade is permitted to
be on the same plane). Additionally, the applicant is requesting a waiver to roofline
articulation and allowable building material requirement as the use of concrete on facades
facing a right-of-way will consist of more than 10 percent. The garage will meet building color
standards.
Requested Zoning Condition
The applicant has requested approval of the PDD Planned Development District with the condition
that the zoning be made effective upon the sale of the subject properties to MH Hospitality.

General Requirements
The PDD Planned Development District is based on the MU Mixed-Use district with some
modifications.
The Concept Plan includes a conceptual layout of buildings and parking areas. The purpose and
intent of the zoning is for the consolidation and redevelopment of properties for a hotel use and
structured parking. The buildings are multi-story and placed close to the street to create an urban
character. A small surface parking lot is proposed at the corner of University Drive East and Jane
Street and an access drive connecting Jane Street to Eisenhower Street at the rear of the property.
The Concept Plan includes new sidewalk along all rights-of-ways.
Permitted Uses
Uses permitted in the MU Mixed Use district.
Building Height – The primary structure will be approximately 95 feet tall and the two-level
parking garage will be approximately 25 feet tall, at the highest point.
Modifications
The following meritorious modifications to MU Mixed Use district requirements are included:
1. Maximum Front Setback Requirement-
UDO Section 12-5.2 “Residential Dimensional Standards,” specifically the maximum
front setback requirement to accommodate the minimum driveway spacing and the required
fire truck access to ensure proper building fire protection coverage.
2. Required Cross-Access Between Commercial Sites –
UDO Section 12-7.4.B.2 “Cross-Access Easements.” As an alternative, the Concept Plan
includes a pedestrian cross access sidewalk along the front of the properties as well as cross
access between Jane Street and Eisenhower Street at the rear of the property.
3. Non-Residential Architectural Standards for the Parking Garage-
UDO Section 12-7.10 “Non-Residential Architectural Standards” (NRA) for the parking
garage. As an alternative, the applicant is offering to use a green screen as a form of
horizontal architectural relief at the same percentage standard (no more than 66 percent of
the façade is permitted to be on the same plane). The garage will meet building color
standards.
Community Benefits
The following community benefits were offered as part of the request:
The project includes the consolidation and rebuilding of several properties that have been
identified as prime for redevelopment. These properties are adjacent to a major intersection
in College Station and in proximity to other mixed-use developments, creating a desired
urban feel to the area.
ORDINANCE NO.__________________ Page 6
The redevelopment will require the development to upgrade substandard infrastructure,
including new water and sewer lines and improving rights-of-way with curbing and
sidewalks. These public improvements, while required, will be expedited with this project.
The improvements to the property and infrastructure have the potential to be a catalyst for
future redevelopments to surrounding properties and continue the urban renewal in the area.

Overlay zoning district for approximately 32 acres, being located in the single-family portion of the
McCulloch Subdivision, an area generally bordered to the north by Holleman Drive, to the south by
Nevada Street, to the west by Pecan Tree Estates Subdivision, Phases 1 and 2, and to the east by
lots fronting the southwest side of Georgia Street (1112 through 1228 Georgia), and including a
portion of the lots fronting the north end of Georgia Street (1100 through 1113 Georgia) in College
Station, Brazos County, Texas.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Neighborhood Integrity
Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item on August 20,
2015. Their recommendation will be presented to the City Council during the presentation of this
item. Staff recommends approval of the overlay zoning.
Summary: Property owners from the McCulloch Subdivision submitted a petition signed by the
majority of owners requesting a Neighborhood Conservation Overlay (NCO) zoning, one of the City’s
Single-Family Overlay districts. The request is in response to large homes recently constructed in

and around the neighborhood.
NCO is a type of zoning district that can be placed “over” the existing GS General Suburban zoning
to provide additional standards for development in the area of the overlay. NCO is intended to help
protect established neighborhoods from inappropriate infill development by prescribing setbacks, lot
coverage, building height, or other controls based on the existing character of the neighborhood. If
approved, an overlay carries additional standards that will be required to be met for any expansion,
development, or redevelopment of property within the district.
As part of the overlay district,the property owners are proposing the following additional single-family
restrictions:
1.Maximum one-story structures;
2.Minimum 25-foot front setback; and
3.Maximum 31%lot coverage (including impervious surfaces such as structures and
driveways/parking).
Additional information can be found in the attached Neighborhood Conservation Study.
REVIEW CRITERIA
1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The McCulloch Subdivision is designated as
“Neighborhood Conservation” on the City’s Future Land Use & Character Map. This area was
included in the Southside Area Neighborhood Plan, adopted as an amendment to the City’s
Comprehensive Plan in 2012. During the neighborhood planning process, area residents
expressed a desire to protect the neighborhood from infill development that is out of character
with the surrounding neighborhood. The Future Land Use & Character designation for this area
was changed from General Suburban to Neighborhood Conservation with the adoption of the
Southside Area Neighborhood Plan.
2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood:The intent of the Neighborhood Conservation Overlay
is to protect and preserve neighborhoods through a district that is focused on the specific needs
of the neighborhood. The NCO is intended to protect the distinct character and unique assets of
the McCulloch Subdivision. The underlying GS General Suburban district will remain the same.
Proposed NCO restrictions are intended to ensure that new development and redevelopment are
in keeping with the character of the existing structures in the neighborhood.
3.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: Because the base GS
General Suburban district will remain in place, the permitted uses will not change with the
proposed overlay. The overlay proposes to limit the size of structures in the neighborhood by
limiting the height, setback, and overall lot coverage for new development and redevelopment in
the neighborhood.
4.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: Because the
base GS General Suburban district will remain in place, the permitted uses will not change with
the proposed overlay.
5.Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 2 of 3

File #:15-0469,Version:1
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The permitted
uses will not change with the proposed overlay zone. The properties are marketable for single-
family use permitted by the GS General Suburban zoning on the property.
6.Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use: The area is currently developed as a single-
family neighborhood. Because the area was platted and developed in the 1940s there are narrow
street right-of-ways and pavement. There are no sidewalks in the area.

Summary
The McCulloch Subdivision is located just south of Holleman Drive and north of Nevada Street, generally
between Welsh Avenue and Oney Hervey Drive. The neighborhood includes 139 single-family homes and
is just south of the City’s Lincoln Recreation Center.
Single-family portion of the McCulloch Subdivision
Neighborhood representatives in the McCulloch Subdivision have submitted an application to request a
NCO Neighborhood Conservation Overlay zoning, one of the City’s Single-Family Overlay districts. The
request is in response to large homes intended for student occupancy being constructed in the
neighborhood.
NCO is a type of zoning district that can be placed “over” the existing GS General Suburban zoning to
provide additional standards for development in the area of the overlay. NCO is intended to help protect
established neighborhoods from inappropriate infill development by prescribing setbacks, lot coverage,
building height, or other controls based on the existing character of the neighborhood. If approved by the
City Council, an overlay carries additional standards that will be required to be met for any expansion,
development, or redevelopment of property. Neighborhood representatives have requested the

following specific restrictions to help ensure that redevelopment and infill development is consistent with
existing homes in the area:
• Maximum one-story single-family structures;
• Minimum 25-foot front building setback; and
• Maximum 31% lot coverage for single-family homes and associated parking.
The ordinance requires that a petition for a Single-Family Overlay District be signed by at least fifty (50)
percent plus one (1) of property owners in the proposed district area. The petition submitted met this
requirement and was verified by City staff using Brazos County Appraisal District (BCAD) data.
Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance
The McCulloch Subdivision is designated as “Neighborhood Conservation” on the City’s Future Land Use
and Character Map. According to the Comprehensive Plan, the “Neighborhood Conservation” designation
is intended for areas that are generally built-out and were platted before current development regulations
were in place often resulting in non-conforming situations. These areas are appropriate for overlays or
zoning classifications that provide additional character protection and address non-conforming issues.
This area was included in the Southside Area Neighborhood Plan. Through the planning process, residents
and property owners in the McCulloch Subdivision expressed their desire to see the pattern of
development remain primarily as it is today. Some additional restrictions currently exist for subdivision
in older neighborhoods, including a minimum lot size of 8,500 square feet (larger than GS General
Suburban zoning), and a minimum lot width being at least the average of the lot width on the block. While
these additional restrictions certainly do not preclude further subdivision in the area, they do help to
preserve the neighborhood pattern and reduce the total number of homes constructed in this area in the
future.
Prior to the Southside Area Neighborhood Plan, the City’s Comprehensive Plan designated this area as
General Suburban – supporting a potential change to denser housing. Area residents and property owners
participated in the planning process and indicated that increased density in this area is not a desire
character shift. To help ensure the character remains compatible with the existing single-family homes in
the area, a change to the Future Land Use and Character Map was approved with the adoption of the
Southside Area Neighborhood Plan. The Future Land Use and Character Map shows this property as
Neighborhood Conservation. The map below illustrates the previous character designation and the
current character designation.

Future Land Use & Character Map amended with the
adoption of the Southside Area Neighborhood Plan
The Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) offers two Single-Family Overlay districts, the NPO
Neighborhood Prevailing Overlay District and the NCO Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District, both
intended to provide additional standards for new construction and redevelopment in established
neighborhoods. The NCO differs from the NPO in that it allows neighborhoods to choose from a variety
of standards to address neighborhood specific issues. The NPO requires compliance with all
neighborhood-specific standards based on the prevailing standards in the neighborhood.
The purpose of this study is to accompany the NCO Neighborhood Conservation Overlay request for the
single-family properties in the McCulloch Subdivision. As described in the Unified Development
Ordinance, this study includes the following:
1) A survey of existing conditions and unique characteristics of the neighborhood;
2) An outline of the issues that threaten preservation of those characteristics; and
3) Items that may be included in the Neighborhood Conservation Overlay.
Survey of Existing Conditions and Unique Characteristics
The McCulloch Subdivision, was one of the earlier African-American communities in College Station. The
area was subdivided in 1946 following the removal of on-campus houses from A&M College – because of
this, many of the first residents were College employees required to relocate off of campus. Many of these
founding families have maintained ownership within the area resulting in the continuation of the cultural
heritage of the neighborhood.

Unique Community Assets & Qualities
Lincoln Recreation Center
The City’s Lincoln Recreation Center provides a variety of recreational and social
services to area residents, including youth programing, senior services, and
community outreach.
The Lincoln Center is a State Historic Site with a marker for “African-American
Education in College Station,” as the location of the first formal school for African
American education in College Station. The school opened in 1942.
Lincoln House of Hope
The Lincoln House of Hope, located just east of the Lincoln Recreational Center, was opened in 2009 as a
ministry of A&M Church of Christ in response to needs in the surrounding neighborhood. Programs
include personal finance workshops, WIC services, food distribution, and youth programs.
Area Churches
Three historically African-American churches exist within the McCulloch Subdivision boundaries and two
more lie just on the periphery. Generally, the churches are small and serve as neighborhood churches for
residents. It is common for residents to walk to church within the neighborhood. As members move out
of the community, on-street parking has increased.
• Christ Holy Missionary Baptist Church on Arizona Street,
• Pleasant Grove Baptist Church on Detroit Street,
• Victory Temple Christ Holy Sanctified Church on Detroit Street,
• First United Methodist Church- College Station on Wellborn Road, and
• St. Matthew Baptist Church on Holleman Drive.
Neighborhood Design
This area was subdivided in a grid-pattern for single-family development in 1946. In the McCulloch
Subdivision, building plot sizes vary, with some areas of the subdivision having 5,000 square-foot
lots/building plots and others having half of an acre or more.
Developed in the 1940s, the street right-of-way width in the McCulloch subdivision is just 40 feet. Today’s
standards for local /residential streets is 50 feet. The streets sections are also substandard in width in
some areas and there are no existing sidewalks in the McCulloch Subdivision.

Affordable Housing
The McCulloch neighborhood is found within Census Tract 16.05, Block Group 2. This area is bounded by
Holleman Drive to the north, Welsh Avenue to the east, Southwest Parkway to the south, and Wellborn
Road to the west. This area is considered by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
as a low-income area with the Median Family Income being $25,833, one of the lowest in the City. There
are 1,570 residents in Census Tract 16.05. Of those, 1,225 are Low/Mod Income Residents and 885 earn
at or below 50% of the area median income.
As of 2015, it is estimated that there are 77 owner-occupied homes in the McCulloch subdivision.
• 16 of these homes were built by B/CS Habitat for Humanity
• 12 more were facilitated the City, including 5 built by BVCAA; BVCAA has completed construction
of another single-family home, which is currently for sale.
McCulloch Subdivision
Neighborhood Conservation Study
______________________________________________________________________________

Those 77 homes have experienced significant increases in land values over the last 5 years (2010-2015),
based on data from the Brazos Central Appraisal District:
• Average one-year growth (2014-2015): 95% (Median: 94%)
• Average three-year growth (2012-2015): 137% (Median: 120%)
• Average five-year growth (2010-2015): 239% (Median: 240%)
Land is becoming a larger part of the total property value, increasing 20% over five years.
• In 2010 land constituted an average of 29% of the total property value.
• In 2015 land constituted an average of 49% of the total property value.
Overall increases in property values:
• 5-year average: 100%
• 5-year median: 45%
<*Difference is so stark because some of the homes surveyed were built after 2010, so the improvement value resulted
in enormous property value increases (up to 1,169%). Therefore, the median value is more reliable.
Issues that Threaten Preservation of Neighborhood Character
McCulloch residents have begun to see properties in the neighborhood and in adjacent areas bought and
developed for new homes that they believe to be out of character with the existing homes in the area.
Generally, these homes are two-story and over twice the average size of existing homes in the
neighborhood. Neighborhood representatives have requested the Neighborhood Conservation Overlay
zoning in an effort to help ensure that redevelopment and infill development is consistent with the
existing homes and development pattern in the neighborhood. General concerns of inconsistent
redevelopment include:
• Increased property taxes and diminished affordability;
• Life-long residents leaving the community;
• Increased number of vehicles, parking, and speeding reducing safety;
• Future of area churches; and
• Future of the Lincoln Recreation Center’s community services and programs.
McCulloch Subdivision
Neighborhood Conservation Study
______________________________________________________________________________

Affordability
Area residents and property owners have indicated that multi-story dwellings that are marketed to and
rented by unrelated individuals places the neighborhood at risk of increased property taxes, limiting the
affordability of the neighborhood. As described previously, property values have increased significantly in
this area in the past five years because of the redevelopment potential.
Vehicles, Parking, and Speeding
Other concerns include increased vehicles attributed to rent-by-the-bedroom dwellings that create
unsightly on-site parking, additional on-street parking, and potential issues with speeding. Because there
are not sidewalks in the neighborhood and the street rights-of-ways are narrower than City standards,
residents and property owners are concerned with the safety of children playing outside.
Area Churches
Neighborhood Representatives are concerned for the future of area churches as life-long residents and
parishioners move out of the area because of affordability or neighborhood character issues. These
historically African-American churches are located within the neighborhood streets with limited on- and
off-street parking. The parking provided was never intended for entire congregations to drive into the
neighborhood. Currently many of the parishioners walk to services and activities at the churches.
Lincoln Recreation Center and the Lincoln House of Hope
The Lincoln Center functions as an extension to the neighborhood as a community center providing
programs and activities for both adults and youths, including afterschool care, summer day camps, and
recreation programs. Area residents are concerned with the future of the services and programs offered
at both the Lincoln Recreation Center and the Lincoln House of Hope as life-long residents move out of
the community.
Infill and Redevelopment
Below are pictures of properties redeveloping in the Pecan Tree Estates subdivision to the west that have
parking located in the rear of the lots. These structures are inconsistent with the character of the
McCulloch Subdivision.

Neighborhood Conservation Items
The Neighborhood Conservation Overlay is intended to help protect established neighborhoods from
inappropriate infill development by prescribing physical requirements based on the existing character of
the neighborhood. If approved by the City Council, an overlay carries additional standards that will be
required to be met for any expansion, development, or redevelopment of property. Neighborhood
representatives have requested the following specific restrictions to help ensure that redevelopment and
infill development is consistent with existing homes in the area:
• Maximum one-story single-family structures;
• Minimum 25-foot front building setback; and
• Maximum 31% lot coverage for single-family homes and associated parking.
One-Story vs. Two-Story structures
The McCulloch Subdivision includes 139 single-family homes – 129 one-story homes and ten two-story
homes. Of the two-story homes, eight are newly constructed.
Front Setback
The standard GS General Suburban front setback is a minimum 25 feet. In this and other older areas of
College Station the Unified Development Ordinance prescribes a “contextual” front setback, requiring that
the home be placed no further back nor no closer to the road than the adjacent structures along the
McCulloch Subdivision
Neighborhood Conservation Study
______________________________________________________________________________

street. Neighborhood representatives prefer a minimum front setback of 25 feet regardless of whether
the parking is located in the front or the rear of the structure to ensure predictability. Existing front
setbacks in the neighborhood vary.
Lot Coverage
The average “lot” size in the neighborhood is 7,224 square feet (5,500 median) and the average homes
size is 1,226 square feet (1,185 median).
Both the average and the median lot coverage in the neighborhood (including an estimated four parking
spaces) is 31%. The majority of the homes do not have four parking spaces, making this a conservative
estimate.
To ensure consistency with existing development patterns, neighborhood representatives have requested
a maximum lot coverage of 31%. Maximum lot coverage includes impervious cover including the home,
accessory structures, driveway, parking area, etc.

File #:15-0471,Version:1
1.57 acres located north of Barron Road and between Renee Lane and Victoria Avenue.
REVIEW CRITERIA
1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan:The subject area is designated as General
Suburban on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map. This allows for an
intense level of development activities consisting of high-density single-family residential lots
with a minimum of 5,000 square feet in area. The proposed rezoning is consistent with this
designation.
2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood:The current zoning of R Rural is compatible with the
immediately adjacent properties. The proposed rezoning of GS General Suburban will allow for
single-family residential development that is consistent with the development pattern across
Victoria Avenue and of the larger surrounding area.
3.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment:The current zoning
designation of R Rural allows for large lot single-family and agricultural uses and is not
compatible with the future land use designation for this area that is significantly more intense. A
rezoning to GS General Suburban would be compatible with area development and meets the
property owner’s intent to develop single-family housing.
4.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:The current
zoning does allow for single-family residential use but at a very low density of approximately one
dwelling unit for every three acres. This property is located along Victoria Avenue, a two-lane
major collector, and a rezoning is appropriate to allow for a higher density single-family
residential development.
5.Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:The property
could remain R Rural, but allowing GS General Suburban would make it more marketable and
similar with the surrounding neighborhoods.
6.Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use:The subject property is located in the College
Station Utility District’s water service area. There is an existing 8-inch water line along Renee
Lane at the edge of the subject property. Development of the subdivision will be required to meet
the City’s fire flow requirements. There are two 8-inch sanitary sewer lines adjacent to the
property which will need to be extended according to BCS Unified Design Guidelines. The
subject tract is located in the Lick Creek drainage basin. Future development of the tract will be
required to meet the requirements of City Storm Water Design Guidelines. The property is also
located along Victoria Avenue, an existing two-lane major collector.

Relationship to Strategic Goals:Diverse Growing Economy
Recommendation(s):The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item on August 6 and

Summary:The applicant has requested a PDD Planned Development District zoning on
approximately 12 acres located on the northern boundary of Christ United Methodist Church along
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 1 of 5

the east side of State Highway 6 South. The PDD, with a base zoning district of MF Multi-Family, will
combine senior independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing.
The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria for zoning map
amendments:
REVIEW CRITERIA
1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan:The subject property is designated as
General Commercial and Natural Areas Reserved on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use
and Character Map.
Land Use - General Commercial: intended for concentrations of commercial activities that
cater both to nearby residents and to the larger community or region. Generally, these areas
tend to be large in size and located near the intersection of two regionally significant roads
(arterials and freeways). It is preferred that in such areas development be concentrated in
nodes rather than spread out in strips.
Land Use - Natural Areas Reserved: intended for areas that represent a constraint to
development and that should be preserved for their natural function or for open space qualities.
These areas include floodplains and riparian buffers, as well as recreation facilities.
The proposed PDD Planned Development District zoning uses a base zoning district of MF
Multi-Family to allow for a development that will provide senior independent living and assisted
living to elderly/aging residents of College Station.
The subject property is also located within the Medical District Master Plan which aims to
support the City’s goal of designating a special district that will establish identity, promote
continuity, and invite significant new investment to fulfill the demand for medical and health
care related uses in the emerging medical district and in the City of College Station. The plan
designates the subject property as Commercial which calls for more professional office space
and services. Uses include Retail, Personal Service, Medical Related, and Hotels.
The Comprehensive Plan Thoroughfare Plan shows future Lakeway Drive aligned with the
rear of the subject property. Across Lakeway Drive, the plan calls for Mixed Urban Residential.
This designation calls for a neighborhood that contains a variety of residential types and sizes.
Uses include Townhome, Live-Work, Apartment, Independent Living, and Assisted Living. To
the north of the site the Medical District Plan calls for Parks, Open Space, and Natural
Greenways. Without frontage to State Highway 6, the subject property has the opportunity to
provide residential options in the Medical District.
2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood:Christ United Methodist Church is located to the south
of this property and is zoned GC General Commercial. To the east is the College Station
Substation zoned R Rural. To the north is vacant land zoned R Rural and owned by the City of
College Station. The subject property is currently zoned GC General Commercial. The proposed
PDD for senior independent and assisted living along with associated medical uses compatible
with the character and development of the surrounding area.
3.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 2 of 5
powered by Legistar™
File #:15-0472,Version:1
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment:The proposed PDD
uses a base zoning district of MF Multi-Family. Without frontage to State Highway 6 and with
proximity to Christ United Methodist Church, future hike and bike trails, and medical facilities,
residential uses are suitable for this property. MF Multi-family also allows for the opportunity for
non-residential uses when incorporated into residential structures.
4.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:The subject
property is currently zoned GC General Commercial. The property may be suitable for this
zoning district, but until the construction of Lakeway Drive and further development with the
Medical District area, commercial is likely more suitable for the front 3.5 acres along State
Highway 6 South.
5. Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the district
applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:According to the
applicant, senior housing/assisted living developments are highly desirable in the College
Station marketplace. With proximity to the hospital, future hike and bike trails, and the Medical
District, senior housing/assisted living may be marketable.
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use:Water Service will be provided by City of
College Station via existing 18-inch water main along State Highway 6 South. There is an 8-inch
sanitary sewer line available along State Highway 6 South that ultimately ties into the lift station
between Barron Road and Eagle Ave. There is currently limited capacity in the lift station, and
the proposed number of dwelling units appear to exceed the current capacity. Lift station
improvements by the developer will be required to serve the proposed dwelling units. The lot is
in the Lick Creek drainage basin. Detention is required with this development. When replatting,
the lot will be required to break block length by connecting a public street or public way from
State Highway 6 South to the future Lakeway Drive. Drainage and other public infrastructure
required with the site shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the B/CS Unified
Design Guidelines. Existing infrastructure, except for sanitary sewer, appears to currently have
capacity to adequately serve the proposed use.
REVIEW OF CONCEPT PLAN
The Concept Plan provides an illustration of the general layout of the proposed building and
parking areas as well as other site related features. In proposing a PDD, an applicant may also
request variations to the general platting and site development standards provided that those
variations are outweighed by demonstrated community benefits of the proposed development. The
Unified Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria as the basis for reviewing
PDD Concept Plans:
1.The proposal will constitute an environment of sustained stability and will be in harmony
with the character of the surrounding area;
2.The proposal is in conformity with the policies, goals, and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan, and any subsequently adopted Plans, and will be consistent with the
intent and purpose of this Section;
3.The proposal is compatible with existing or permitted uses on abutting sites and will not
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 3 of 5

File #:15-0472,Version:1
adversely affect adjacent development;
4.Every dwelling unit need not front on a public street but shall have access to a public
street directly or via a court, walkway, public area, or area owned by a homeowners
association;
5.The development includes provision of adequate public improvements, including, but not
limited to, parks, schools, and other public facilities;
6.The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, welfare, or materially
injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and
7.The development 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 reasonably anticipated in the area considering existing zoning
and land uses in the area.
General:The proposed Concept Plan includes units for senior independent living, assisted living,
memory care, and skilled nursing in different phases. All structures will be a maximum of 4-stories
tall and may have architectural elements above 4-stories that could be as tall as 70 feet above
ground level (e.g., cupolas). If a trail system is provided around the pond common area it will be
privately owned and maintained. Certain structures will incorporate covered parking for residents
at grade/first floor level. A Public Way will be provided along the shared property line with Christ
United Methodist Church from State Highway 6 to the future Lakeway Drive.
Modifications Requested:MF Multi-Family is proposed as the base zoning district with the
following modifications. All other standards not expressly requested and approved will meet MF
Multi-Family standards:
•Density:The applicant requests to reduce the minimum density requirement from 12
dwelling units per acre to 9 dwelling units per acre.
•Parking: The applicant requests to reduce the number of parking spaces for multi-family
units from 1.5 spaces per bedroom for 1 and 2 bedroom units to 1 parking space per
bedroom. Additional Parking will be provided for other uses on-site at the ratios required by
the Unified Development Ordinance.
Community Benefits:The applicant offers the following as community benefits:
•The unique product of this development is to meet the needs of the growing retiree
population and provide a residential option with on-site care facilities.
•The development will provide a direct access to the new hike and bike trails for its residents
and other consumers to utilize.
• A location convenient to hospitals and medical facilities which lessens the burden on the City’s
transportation system.
• The proximity of the project to Christ United Methodist Church is advantageous as it provides
access to the church to allow participation in the Church’s programming within walking distance.

Relationship to Strategic Goals:Diverse Growing Economy
Recommendations:The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their May 7, 2015
meeting and voted 4-1 to recommend approval of the rezoning request. The Parks and Recreation
Advisory Board considered the additional parkland fees as one of the proposed community benefits
to help offset the proposed meritorious modifications at their May 12, 2015 meeting and voted 7-0 to
recommend to accept the fee changes but included as part of their motion that they were not
comfortable with the fees for future projects and would ask Council to consider additional fees for
developments with higher bedroom counts per unit.

Update: The Council deferred this item from the June 25, 2015 meeting to the second Council
meeting in August so further traffic analysis could be performed by the applicant. On August 7, 2015,
staff received the attached correspondence from Texas A&M University Transportation Services that
transit service would be provided to the Holleman Drive South corridor starting in fall 2016. The
applicant recently submitted the revised traffic impact analysis (TIA) and it is currently being reviewed
by staff. Staff will provide further information at the meeting.
Previous Summary:The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria for
zoning map amendments:
Review Criteria
1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject area is designated on the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map as Urban and is located in Growth
Area V. The Urban designation is generally for areas that should have a very intense level of
development activities. These areas will tend to consist of townhomes, duplexes, and high-density
apartments. General commercial and office uses, business parks, and vertical mixed-use may
also be permitted within Growth Area V. The proposed PDD Planned Development District is for a
multi-family development so the proposed land use is consistent with the uses anticipated in the
Comprehensive Plan for this area. The availability of adequate infrastructure, however, factors
into the appropriate timing of development.
2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood: The property in the immediate vicinity is mostly zoned
R Rural and largely undeveloped. Across Holleman Drive South from the subject tract is the Quail
Run Subdivision located outside the City limits in the extraterritorial jurisdiction. Some of the
property to the north is developed as warehouse, office, and storage uses. The proposed zoning
would not be a continuation of the general character of the area but of the general character
anticipated as this area develops.
3.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: The subject tract is
suitable for multi-family uses. The area is in relative proximity to the Texas A&M University
campus and is close to other existing and planned multi-family developments. Being located
adjacent to the railroad does not make residential development ideal, though this development
pattern has occurred in other areas along the railroad due to the demand for additional residential
units.
4.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The subject tract
is on the northern edge of a large undeveloped area that includes multiple tracts that in aggregate
are approximately 150 acres. While the long-term development trends in this area will likely
stimulate development, the subject tract is currently adjacent to other large undeveloped tracts
and could continue to serve as agriculture uses in the interim.
5.Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The subject tract
is largely zoned R Rural which is not very marketable for development purposes but can be
utilized for lesser intense uses. The portion of the tract along the railroad was zoned for single-
family, GS General Suburban, upon annexation as this was the default zoning district at the time.
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 2 of 6

File #:15-0481,Version:1
Single-family uses adjacent to the railroad is not highly marketable.
6.Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use: The majority of the subject tract lies within City of
College Station Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) for water service. The southern
portion of the proposed request is located in Wellborn Special Utility District (SUD) CCN. Through
discussion with Wellborn SUD, they have agreed to consider to allow the City to serve the entire
development. This arrangement would be finalized if the project were approved and continued
forward with development. There is an existing 8-inch waterline along Holleman Drive South
available to serve the tract. Water transmission mains also exist on the northern and eastern
property lines but may not be tapped with site development based on their size.
Along the east side of the tract there is a 12-inch sanitary sewer main which currently has
capacity to serve the development. This property is located within the Steeplechase-Wellborn
Sanitary Sewer Impact Fee Area. Detention is required in this area, where stormwater from the
tract generally discharges to the east within the Bee Creek Drainage Basin. Drainage and other
public infrastructure required with site development shall be designed and constructed in
accordance with BCS Unified Design Guidelines.
The subject tract is adjacent to Holleman Drive South which is identified on the Thoroughfare
Plan as a four-lane Major Collector, but is currently constructed as a two-lane rural section road in
this area. A four-lane section exists to the north between North Dowling Road and Harvey Mitchell
Parkway South (FM 2818). Funding for the future expansion of Holleman Drive South has not
been identified. A Minor Collector (future General Parkway) is also identified on the Thoroughfare
Plan on the subject tract and this portion would be constructed with the development. General
Parkway would be extended further south with future development of those tracts until it reaches
Cain Road approximately a half mile away. Additional streets and public ways would be expected
as part of subdivision regulation’s block length requirement as tracts in the area develop to help
create a local transportation network to provide alternative routes and distribution of traffic.
A traffic impact analysis (TIA) was provided with the rezoning application. According to the
TIA, the proposed development will generate approximately 2,700 trips per day. The intersection
of Holleman Drive South and Harvey Mitchell Parkway South currently has traffic movements
experiencing an unacceptable level of service which will continue to decline as development
occurs along the Holleman Drive South corridor. In the P.M. peak hour, upon completion of the
development, all northbound movements at the intersection of Harvey Mitchell Parkway South
and Holleman Drive South will reach an unacceptable level of service, defined by delays
exceeding 55 seconds per vehicle. During this same time period, southbound traffic on Holleman
Drive West is anticipated to experience an increased delay of 20 seconds per vehicle.
The intersections of Harvey Mitchell Parkway South with Holleman Drive South and Rock
Prairie Road West with Wellborn Road (FM 2154) provide the main egress points for traffic
coming from this portion of the City and adjacent areas of the County. The Thoroughfare Plan
shows a future railroad crossing at Deacon Drive West, which would provide an additional future
signalized point of egress for developments further south of the tract and should lessen traffic
demand at the Harvey Mitchell Parkway South and Holleman Drive South intersection. The
railroad crossing, however, is not currently funded, though is being considered as one of the
potential projects to be included in the bond election anticipated later this year. If included and the
bond package and approved by the voters, the project would be scheduled for design and
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 3 of 6

File #:15-0481,Version:1
construction in future years. In addition, the 2040 Metropolitan Transportation Plan anticipates
improvements and widening of Harvey Mitchell Parkway South between Raymond Stotzer
Parkway (FM 60) and Wellborn Road in 2019, which should improve the level of service at the
intersection of Harvey Mitchell Parkway South and Holleman Drive South. These potential
improvements, however, are not currently in place to provide the additional capacity for
development of this size and scale. Of note, two rezonings for multi-family development along
Holleman Drive South near Harvey Mitchell Parkway were approved within the past six months.
These rezonings were amendments to an existing PDD Planned Development District that was
approved for multi-family and commercial uses in 2008. The TIAs submitted with those requests
identified significant transportation improvements and mitigation to be constructed.
Review of Concept Plan
The Concept Plan provides an illustration of the general layout of the proposed building and parking
areas as well as other site related features. In proposing a PDD, an applicant may also request
variations to the general platting and site development standards provided that those variations are
outweighed by demonstrated community benefits of the proposed development. The Unified
Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria as the basis for reviewing PDD
Concept Plans:
1.The proposal will constitute an environment of sustained stability and will be in harmony
with the character of the surrounding area;
2.The proposal is in conformity with the policies, goals, and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan, and any subsequently adopted Plans, and will be consistent with the
intent and purpose of this Section;
3.The proposal is compatible with existing or permitted uses on abutting sites and will not
adversely affect adjacent development;
4.Every dwelling unit need not front on a public street but shall have access to a public
street directly or via a court, walkway, public area, or area owned by a homeowners
association;
5.The development includes provision of adequate public improvements, including, but not
limited to, parks, schools, and other public facilities;
6.The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, welfare, or materially
injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and
7.The development 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 reasonably anticipated in the area considering
existing zoning and land uses in the area.
General
The proposed PDD Planned Development District is based on the new MF Multi-Family district that
was adopted in December with some modifications. As shown on the Concept Plan, the proposed
zoning is for a gated multi-family development consisting mostly of single-detached and duplex units
that range between 2 and 5 bedrooms. The proposed minimum density of 8.7 units per acre is a
modification request by the applicant to the MF Multi-Family district requirement of a minimum of 12
units per acre.
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 4 of 6
powered by Legistar™
File #:15-0481,Version:1
The proposed buildings will range from 20 to 40 feet in height. As shown on the Concept Plan, gated
driveways are proposed to Holleman Drive South, the General Parkway extension, and the proposed
Public Way. A 50-foot wide utility corridor is identified along the northern property boundary for the
existing water transmission line and anticipated parallel water transmission line. Stormwater
detention will be provided in the southeast corner of the site near the railroad.
The applicant has requested a provision to hold the effective date of the rezoning ordinance to be
contingent upon the sale of the property from the current owner with the deed being recorded at the
courthouse within the next six months (on or before November 30, 2015). This has come at the
request of the current owner to retain the existing zoning if the closing does not occur.
Meritorious Modifications
The applicant has requested the following meritorious modifications, as identified in italics, with
additional description provided:
•Allow five-bedroom units types to allow up to five unrelated individuals in a dwelling unit.
The development anticipates a mixture of 2, 3, 4 and 5 bedroom units and renting the units by
the bedroom. The applicant states allowing 2-5 bedroom units will provide more leasing
options and help keep leases affordable. The applicant is also proposing additional parkland
dedication fees for the additional bedrooms as described in the Community Benefits section.
•Reduce the minimum density required for MF Multi-Family districts from 12 units per acre
to 8.7 units per acre. The density reduction is requested to allow the arrangement of buildings
and units to increase open space, common and gathering areas, and allow more quality of life
amenities by providing a more neighborhood style development with smaller scale buildings.
•Reduce the required throat depth of driveways leading up to a gated entrance to be no
more than 60 feet. The ordinance requires that gated entrances have a minimum throat depth
from the intersecting street in order to allow sufficient room for vehicles to stack without
backing up into the adjacent roadway. The throat depth requirement for gated areas in which
more than 26 units are served is a minimum of 100 feet in depth.
•Allow for block length and block perimeter waivers for the development. The Urban
designation allows a maximum block length of 660 feet and a maximum block perimeter of
2,000 feet. The Concept Plan proposes a Public Way which would provide an alternate route
between General Parkway and Dowling Road when it would be extended with the future
development of the tract to the north. The dimensions of the subject tract require additional
street connections though the applicant has proposed to gate the development which
eliminates the potential for these additional connections.
Community Benefits
The applicant has identified community benefits, as identified in italics, to offset the proposed
meritorious modifications with additional description provided:
•To enhance traffic flow along Holleman Drive South, a right turn lane will be constructed
for northbound traffic to turn on Dowling Road. This will encourage drivers to use Dowling
Road and then take Jones Butler Road toward campus, thereby bypassing the intersection of
FM 2818 and Holleman Drive South. Utilizing Dowling Road to the east as an alternate route
to Jones Butler Road so as to avoid the intersection of Harvey Mitchell Parkway South and
Holleman Drive South is desirable. It is not known though how beneficial providing a turn lane
will be at encouraging the use of the alternate route.
•Provide a private shuttle service from the development to the TAMU campus in the event
that Texas A&M Transportation Services will not be expanding their bus route. Transit service
should have the effect of decreasing some of the traffic demand. Providing a requirement for
College Station, TX Printed on 8/21/2015Page 5 of 6

File #:15-0481,Version:1
the operation of a private shuttle service within a zoning ordinance could be problematic to
administer and enforce.
•Construct approximately 900 feet of General Parkway as required by City ordinance. The
development was reconfigured to provide a public way from General Parkway to the northwest
property line. Two of the entrances into these gated areas have been moved onto this public
way.The requirement to construct General Parkway and additional street connections is
required by application of the standard ordinance.
•Provide additional parkland funds for additional community enhancement of park facilities
as warranted. This extra parkland fees amount will be based upon the number of “extra”
bedrooms added to the project by the 5-bedroom units.The difference in units lost by having 5
bedroom units instead of 4 bedroom units would be paid. Based on the current design of
having 51 5-bedroom units (12.75 less units), additional parkland fees in the amount of
$20,859 would be provided. This fee arrangement will help offset additional density allowed by
the 5-bedroom units. The Parks & Recreation Advisory Board provided a recommendation
regarding the allowance to require additional fees at their May 12th meeting and recommended
to accept the fee changes but included as part of their motion that they were not comfortable
with the fee amounts for future projects and would ask Council to consider additional fees for
developments with higher bedroom counts per unit.

General Requirements
The PDD Planned Development District is based on the MF Multi-Family district with some
modifications. The development will be a gated multi-family development consisting mostly of
single-detached and two-unit buildings that range between 2 and 5 bedrooms. The primary
buildings will range from 20 to 40 feet in height. The Concept Plan provides the conceptual
layout of buildings, parking, and other features and improvements.
Meritorious Modifications
The following meritorious modifications to MF Multi-Family district requirements are included:
Allow five-bedroom units types to allow up to five unrelated individuals in a dwelling
unit.
Reduce the minimum density from 12 units per acre to 8.7 units per acre.
Reduce the required throat depth of driveways leading up to a gated entrance to be no
more than 60 feet.
Allow for block length and block perimeter waivers for the development.
Community Benefits
The following community benefits were offered as part of the request:
Enhance traffic flow along Holleman Drive South, a right turn lane will be constructed
for northbound traffic to turn on Dowling Road. This will encourage drivers to use
Dowling Road and then take Jones Butler Road toward campus, thereby bypassing the
intersection of FM 2818 and Holleman Drive South.
Provide a private shuttle service from the development to the TAMU campus in the event
that Texas A&M Transportation Services will not be expanding their bus route.
Construct approximately 900 feet of General Parkway as required by City ordinance. The
development was reconfigured to provide a public way from the General Parkway
extension to the northwest property line. Two of the entrances into these gated areas have
been moved onto this public way.
Provide additional parkland funds for additional community enhancement of park
facilities as warranted. This extra parkland fees amount will be based upon the number of
“extra” bedrooms added to the project by the 5-bedroom units.
