There was no action required from Executive Session.
4. Presentation, possible action, and discussion on items listed on the consent agenda.
2c: Dave Coleman, Director of Water Services, explained that the City has the option of
assessing impact fees in the City and portions of the ETJ. He provided a map of the ETJ areas
being considered. He noted this would not have an adverse impact on residents in the ETJ.
2b: David Schmitz, Parks Director, provided some graphics showing the mobile stage. It is
fully self-contained and can be pulled with a one-ton vehicle.
2e: David Schmitz, Parks Director, said it is a simple repair and replacement at Brothers Pond.
The other pier at Central Park will be demolished, and a new one will be installed.
2i, 2j, 2k: Troy Rother, Traffic Engineer, reported that this is an effort with the school district
to centralize the drop-off site and improve safety for the students as they walk to school.
5. Presentation, possible action, and discussion on the Fiscal Year 2017 BVSWMA, Inc.
Proposed Budget.
Bryan Griesbach, Executive Director, BVSWMA, Inc., presented the proposed 2017 BVSWMA,
Inc. budget. Proposed Budget Revenue is $7,552,080 and the Total Expenses are $8,257,285. The
proposed budget also reduces the gate rate for both cities from $21.19 to $20.50 per ton.
6. Presentation, possible action, and discussion on an ordinance amending Chapter 10,
“Traffic Code” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas by adding
Section 10-14 “Use of Wireless Communication Devices While Operating a Motor Vehicle or
Bicycle” and providing a severability clause; declaring a penalty; and providing and effective
date.
Scott McCollum, Police Chief, stated there are many kinds of distracted driving, and driver
inattention while using wireless communication devices is a growing public safety concern.
Tonight’s proposed ordinance proposes modifications to provide a mechanism of enforcement and
deterrence with an objective to reduce injury and property loss due to crashes caused by distracted
WKSHP071416 Minutes Page 3
driving, and to ultimately save lives. Texas is one of only four states without a law prohibiting all
drivers from texting while driving. Efforts to pass a State law prohibiting texting and driving has
failed in the past three legislative sessions. The primary reasons have been due to enforcement
and privacy concerns. Locally, the Texas A&M Student Senate is supportive of an initiative to
restrict use of electronic communication devices. However, they have expressed concern
regarding biased student enforcement. The recent City survey has indicated a public desire to
restrict electronic communication use while driving.
Council consensus was to direct staff to emphasize “hands free” while the vehicle is moving.
The Workshop was recessed at 6:58 p.m. in order to convene the Regular meeting at its posted
time.
Workshop reconvened at 8:44 p.m.
7. Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding a presentation on Old Wellborn
Road.
Jeff Whitaker, Kimley-Horn, reported that there are two CIP projects that impact Old Wellborn.
Rock Prairie Road is being widened from Wellborn to Holleman. In addition, Deacon Road is
being extended to Wellborn Road. Both of these current projects will impact Old Wellborn.
Currently, Old Wellborn is a low traffic generator; however, due to its alignment with the railroad
and Wellborn Road, there are traffic operation ad safety concerns. There are four alternative routes
being evaluated to provide relief to the intersection of FM 2818 and Holleman: General Parkway,
Jones-Butler extension, a combination of both, and the Luther extension. They recommend that
Old Wellborn be replaced by General Parkway.
8. Council Calendar
Council reviewed the calendar.
9. Presentation, possible action, and discussion on future agenda items: a Councilmember
may inquire about a subject for which notice has not been given. A statement of specific
factual information or the recitation of existing policy may be given. Any deliberation shall
be limited to a proposal to place the subject on an agenda for a subsequent meeting.

Dave Coleman, director of Water Services, stated that this item is to consider the land use
assumptions (LUA) and capital improvements plan (CIP) for citywide water impact fees, and to
RM071416 Minutes Page 4
consider the land use assumptions and capital improvements plan for citywide and extra-territorial
jurisdiction wastewater impact fees. There was general consensus by the water and wastewater
IFAC that the LUA and CIP for the water and wastewater impact fees seem reasonable.
Richard Weatherly, Freese and Nichols, clarified the impact fee process.
At approximately 7:28 p.m., Mayor Berry opened the Public Hearing.
Buck Prewitt, 2302 Scotney Ct., urged that Council not price College Station out of the medium
income market. This will definitely impact the medium income person – the workers. The need
for homes has changed a great deal. There are more of the “worker” homes moving to Bryan and
out to the ETJ. There are retired Aggies and families with children wanting to move to College
Station, and the costs will be so much greater on starter homes.
There being no further comments, the Public Hearing was closed at 7:33 p.m.
MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Nichols and a second by Councilmember
Brick, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to adopt Resolution 07-14-16-
01, approving the land use assumptions and capital improvement plan for water and wastewater
impact fees. The motion carried unanimously.
2. Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding approval of
Resolution 07-14-16-02, approving the land use assumptions and capital improvement plan

Jeff Whitaker, Kimley-Horn, clarified the impact fee process and how the projections were
derived.
At approximately 7:55 p.m., Mayor Berry opened the Public Hearing.
Buck Prewitt, 2302 Scotney Ct., asked what types of roadways was used in these assumptions.
Mr. Whitaker stated that some concrete was used and residential was included as well.
Joe Guerra, 2079 Ravenstone Loop, said this is a big number. One option is to go back to the old
land use plan.
There being no further comments, the Public Hearing was closed at 7:59 p.m.
MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Brick and a second by Councilmember
Mooney, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to adopt Resolution 07-14-

Included in the Plan are goals,objectives,and funding recommendations for projects and programs.
Each year,the City is required to submit to the U.S.Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD)a one-year Action Plan describing projects and activities to be funded with the community
development grants received.Action Plan activities must correspond to the 5-Year Consolidated
Plan.
HUD requires that the Action Plan and Budget be delivered by August 16,2016,therefore these are
presented prior to the Council’s consideration of the overall City budget.The new grant amounts
available for PY 2016 includes $983,111 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)funds and
$372,121 in HOME Investment Partnership Grant (HOME)funds.The budget includes previously
programmed but unspent grant funds from current years in the amount of $291,526 in CDBG and
$747,466 in HOME,in addition to expected program income in the amount of $33,930 (HOME)to be
received from reconstruction loans executed in previous years and recaptured funds from the
disposition of the Holleman property in the amount of $2,386,933 (CDBG).
CDBG and HOME funds may only be used to:(1)benefit low-and moderate-income persons;(2)aid
in the elimination of slum and blighting influences,and/or;(3)meet a particular urgent need.Further,
CDBG funds may be used to meet local needs through a wide range of community development
activities, while HOME funds may only be used for affordable housing activities.
The proposed plans and budget were developed using input received from a series of public
hearings,program committee meetings,and citizen input.The goals and objectives in the 2010-2014
Consolidated Plan were followed in preparing this year’s Plan.These goals and objectives were
prepared to meet the specific needs of lower-income citizens,and to provide support for families
working towards self-sufficiency and are now being presented to Council for discussion and input.
Historically,the City has utilized these funds for a variety of programs and activities,including:
affordable housing programs (homebuyer assistance,security deposit assistance,rehabilitation,
leveraged development for new construction,and minor repairs);funding of direct services to low-
income families;economic development;code enforcement;acquisition;demolition;and park,street,

Presentation, possible action, and discussion on an ordinance amending Chapter 10, “Traffic Code”, Section 2
“Traffic Control Devices”, J “One-Way Streets and Alleyways”, (1) “Traffic Schedule VII - One-Way Streets and
Alleyways”, of the Code of Ordinances of The City of College Station, Texas, by making Boswell Street a One-
Way Street all the time.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
·Improving Mobility
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.
Summary: The purpose of this ordinance is to make Boswell Street a one-way a street at all times and remove the time-of-
day restriction. In June of 2016 the College Station Police Department requested that Traffic Engineering evaluate the
potential of making Boswell Street a one-way street at all times.
This ordinance is needed because it is difficult for residents along Boswell to obey the State of Texas Traffic Code under
the current ordinance. Under the current time-of-day ordinance, a vehicle that is legally parked facing the direction that
traffic flows before 4:30 PM are no longer doing so after 4:30 PM.
To determine which alternative was most acceptable to the residents that live on the street College Station PD went door-to
-door acquiring feedback. Of the 8 residents contacted, 3 would rather see the street be two-way, 4 would prefer the street
be one-way 24 hours, and 1 did not provide an opinion because they were in the process of moving out. To obtain
feedback on the direction of travel and parking removal that would be needed to make two-way operation work during
parent pick-up and drop-off time, traffic engineering held a public meeting on July 6, 2016, there were 13 people in
attendance at this meeting. Everyone at this public meeting (parents, residents, property owners) preferred one-way traffic
with zero parking restrictions as opposed to two-way operation with parking restrictions during parent pick-up and drop-off

times.
Based upon citizen preference, the Traffic Management Team has no opposition to making Boswell Street a one-way street
at all times and removing the time-of-day restriction.
Budget & Financial Summary: The signs and pavement markings needed to make this a one-way street at all times are a
planned operation and maintenance expenses accounted for in the Public Works Traffic Operations budget.

Presentation, possible action, and discussion on 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” to
remove stopping, standing, and parking along Langford Street and Boswell Street.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.
Summary: The purpose of this ordinance is to remove parking, standing, and stopping along Langford Street and a short
segment of Boswell Street near South Knoll Elementary. Residents and property owners along Langford Street requested
that the city of College Station evaluate traffic safety along Langford Street during parent pick-up and drop-off at South
Knoll Elementary.
Some of the concerns raised by residents, property owners, and parents are the safety of children walking along Langford,
the safety of children crossing Boswell at the intersection with Langford, and the mobility of parents that are trying to use
the parent pick-up and drop-off areas as directed. Based upon these concerns, traffic engineering prepared a set of
potential changes that were presented at a public meeting on July 6, 2016. Those invited to the meeting included parents,
affected property owners, and affected residents. There were 13 residents, property owners, and parents in attendance at
the public meeting and 5 people provided feedback via email. Based upon this feedback, traffic engineering reduced the
amount of parking removal in the proposed plan to that provided within the ordinance by still allowing parking along most of
Boswell and not removing any parking along Lawyer. Of the people at the public meeting, approximately 80 percent were
property owners and residents were okay with the modified plan. Among the parents, there is concern that the removal of
parking will make it more difficult for parents to walk their children into the school during pick-up and drop-off periods.

Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an annual water meter purchase contract
with National Meter & Automation, Inc. for a maximum annual amount of $463,000.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the contract
Summary:This contract will allow Water Services to purchase annually up to 3,600 of the ¾” water
meters, and up to 2,200 of the 1” water meters from National Meter & Automation, for a maximum
annual cost of $463,000. These are traditional mechanical meters.
For the past six years, we have purchased exclusively electronic water meters from Sensus Corp, to
prepare for an eventual automated meter reading system. However, these meters have had issues
with register wiring and cracks in the meter body, which are being fixed by Sensus. In the interim, we
must purchase some traditional meters to meet the present needs, while the issues with the
electronic meters are being resolved. We intend to return to purchasing electronic meters as soon as
possible.
National Meter & Automation, Inc. was the lowest responsible bidder that meets College Station
Water Services meter specifications. As shown on the attached Bid Tab, four sealed competitive bids
were received and opened on May 18, 2016. Two of the bidders, Mueller and RG3, were found to be
quoting meters that do not meet the contract specifications. National Meter & Automation, Inc. offers
meters at the best value to the city based on price, discounts, delivery terms, and product quality.
This price agreement is for a term of one year plus two one-year renewal options.

Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding construction contract 16300454 with Smith
Pump Company in the amount of $82,291 for the rehabilitation of Transfer Pump number three.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
Recommendation: Staff recommends approval.
Summary: Transfer Pump 3 (TP03) is one of four Transfer Pumps the City owns and operates as
part of the Sandy Point Pump Station. Transfer Pumps are a critical part of the water production
process, as they deliver semi-treated water from the well field to the Dowling Road Pump Station for
final treatment and distribution to our customers.
TP03 has been in-service for almost twenty years and while the pump performance has been
acceptable, routine inspections revealed significant corrosion on the above-water components of the
vertical turbine pump assembly, which indicates rehabilitation is prudent at this time.
This project will provide complete tear-down inspection of the pump and measure mechanical fits and
seal fit finishes for equipment components and ensure replacement parts meet, or exceed OEM
requirements. This completed work will return TP03 to “like new” condition and should ensure the
reliable performance of TP03 for at least another decade.
Sealed competitive bids were solicited for this repair work through ITB 16-079 and it was determined
that Smith Pump Company was the lowest responsive bidder. The contract cost of $82,291 is
reasonable, and staff recommends the contract be approved.
Budget & Financial Summary:Funds have been budgeted through the SLA process for this work
and are available within the Water Services operating budget to complete this project.

LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The transfer pumps at Sandy Point Pump Station move water from the cooling towers to
Dowling Road Pump Station where it is distributed to our customers. These pumps must have
certain components serviced on a regular basis to maintain reliability and capacity. Additionally,
they are subject to corrosion damage from extended periods of service. It has been approximately
ten years since Transfer Pump #3 was serviced. Futher, during our annual inspection of the clear
well where it is located, serious corrosion was observed. This proposal is to have the transfer
pump removed from the clearwell for dissasembly and inspection. At that time a decision will be

The Contractor shall appoint and keep on the Project during the progress of the work a competent Project Manager and any necessary assistants, all satisfactory to City's Representative, to act as the Contractor's representative and to supervise its employees and subcontractors. All directions given to the Project Manager shall be binding as if given to the Contractor. Adequate supervision by competent and reasonable representatives of the Contractor is essential to the proper performance of the work, and lack of such supervision shall be grounds for suspending the operations of the Contractor and is a breach of this Agreement. 5.03. Unless otherwise stipulated, the Contractor shall provide and pay for all labor, materials, tools, equipment, transportation, facilities, and drawings, including engineering, and any other services necessary or reasonably incidental to the performance of the work by the Contractor. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to furnish a completed work product that meets the requirements of the City.

Any injury or damage to the Contractor or the Project caused by an act of God, natural cause, a party or entity not privy to this Agreement, or other force majeure shall be assumed and borne by the Contractor. 6.

NATURE OF THE WORK 8.01. It is understood and agreed that the Contractor has, by careful examination, studied and compared the various Drawings and other Contract Documents, satisfied itself as to the nature and location of the
Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 5
work, the conditions of the ground and soil, the nature of any structures, the character, quality, and quantity
of the material to be utilized, the character of equipment and facilities needed for and during the
prosecution of the work, the time needed to complete the work, Contractor's ability to meet all deadlines
and schedules required by this Agreement, the general and local conditions, including but not limited to
weather, and all other matters that in any way affect the work under this Agreement. These obligations are
for the purpose of facilitating construction by the Contractor and are not for the purpose of discovering
errors, omissions, or inconsistencies in the Contract Documents; however, any errors, inconsistencies or
omissions discovered, or which reasonably should have been discovered by the Contractor shall be reported
promptly to the City as a request for information in such form as the City may require. However, the
Contractor shall not perform any act or do any work on the Project that places the safety of persons at risk
or potentially damages materials or equipment used in the Project, and the Contractor shall do nothing that
would render any test or tests erroneous.
8.02. Any design errors or omissions noted by the Contractor during this review shall be reported
promptly to the City, but it is recognized that the Contractor’s review is made in the Contractor’s capacity as
a contractor and not as a licensed design professional unless otherwise specifically provided in the Contract
Documents. The Contractor is not required to ascertain that the Contract Documents are in accordance
with applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, building codes, and rules and regulations, but any nonconformity
discovered by or which reasonably should have been discovered or made known to the Contractor shall be
reported promptly to the City.
8.03. If the Contractor fails to perform the obligations of Paragraphs 8.01. and 8.02., the Contractor shall
pay such costs and damages to the City as would have been avoided if the Contractor had performed such
obligations. The Contractor shall not be liable to the City for damages resulting from errors, inconsistencies
or omissions in the Contract Documents or for differences between field measurements or conditions and
the Contract Documents unless the Contractor recognized or reasonably should have recognized such error,
inconsistency, omission or difference and knowingly failed to report it to the City.
9. POST-AGREEMENT AWARD MEETINGS
9.01. Prior to the commencement of the work, the parties shall meet and attend a post-agreement award
meeting at the time and place determined by City's Representative. At the post-agreement award meeting,

specifications submitted for review. No later than ten (10) days prior to the post-agreement award meeting,

the completion of stages of work hereunder.

Contract No. 16300454 Page 6
9.02. The City's Representative, within five (5) working days after the initial post-agreement award
conference or any other meetings, may submit minutes of the meeting to the Contractor. The Contractor
shall thereafter have five (5) working days to review the minutes and make its objections, changes, or
reductions thereto in writing. The Contractor shall thereafter sign the minutes and promptly return them to
City's Representative. Where there is disagreement, City's Representative will make the final determination.
10. PROGRESS OF WORK
10.01. Unless otherwise specifically provided, the Contractor shall prosecute its work at such time and
sessions, in such order of precedence, and in such manner as shall be most conducive to the economy of the
Project; provided, however, that the order and time of prosecution shall be such that the Project shall be
Substantially Completed in accordance with this Agreement, the plans and specifications, and within the
time of completion designated in the schedules agreed upon by the parties.
10.02. Further, the parties shall be subject to the following:
(a) The Contractor shall submit a progress schedule and payment schedule of the work
contemplated by this Agreement at the initial post-agreement award meeting and subsequent
meetings.
(b) City's Representative shall be entitled to make objections to the Contractor's schedule
submitted herein. The Contractor shall promptly resubmit a revised schedule to City's
Representative.
(c) The Project Superintendent/Manager shall coordinate its activities with City's
Representative. If required by the City, the Contractor shall provide a weekly schedule of planned
activities, which may be reviewed on a daily basis.
(d) The Contractor shall submit, at such time as may reasonably be requested by City's
Representative, additional schedules that shall list the order in which the Contractor proposes to
carry on the work with dates at which the Contractor will start the several parts of the work and the
estimated dates of completion of the several parts.
(e) The Contractor shall attend additional meetings called by City's Representative upon twenty-
four (24) hours written notice unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties.
(f) When the City is having other work done, either by agreement or by its own force, City's
Representative may direct the time and manner of work done under this Agreement so that conflicts
will be avoided and the various work being done by and for the City shall be coordinated.
(g) In the event that it is determined by the City that the progress of the work is not in
accordance with the approved progress and payment schedule, the City may so inform the
Contractor and require the Contractor to take such action as is necessary to insure completion of the
Project within the time specified.
10.03. The process of approving Contractor’s schedules and updates to Contractor’s schedules shall not
constitute a warranty by the City that any non-Contractor milestones or activities will occur as set out in the
Contractor’s schedules. Approval of a contractor’s schedules does not constitute a commitment by the City
to furnish any City-furnished information or material any earlier than the City would otherwise be obligated
to furnish that information or material under the Contract Documents. Failure of the Work to proceed in
the sequence scheduled by Contractor shall not alone serve as the basis for a Claim for additional
compensation or time. In the event there is interference with the Work which is beyond its control,
Contractor shall attempt to reschedule the Work in a manner that will hold the additional time and costs
beyond its control to a minimum. The Contractor shall monitor the progress of the Work for conformance
Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 7
with the requirements of the construction schedules and shall promptly advise the City of any delays or
potential delays. In the event any schedule indicates any delays, the Contractor shall propose an affirmative
plan to correct the delay. In no event shall any schedule constitute an adjustment in the Contract Time, any
Milestone Date or the Contract Sum unless any such adjustment is agreed to by the City and authorized
pursuant to Change Order.
10.04. Work Stoppage. If in the judgment of either the City or City's Representative any of the work or
materials furnished is not in strict accordance with this Agreement or any portion of the work is being
performed so as to create a hazardous condition, they may, in their sole discretion, order the work of the
Contractor or any sub contractor wholly or partially stopped until any objectionable person, work, or
material is removed from the premises. Such stoppage or suspension shall neither invalidate any of the
Contractor's performance obligations under this Agreement, including the time of performance and
deadlines therefore, nor will any extra charge be allowed the Contractor by reason of such stoppage or
suspension.
11. SITE CONDITIONS AND MANAGEMENT
11.01. Where the Contractor is working around or in existing structures, it shall verify conditions at the
site, including but not limited to, door openings and passages. Any items constructed or manufactured off-
site or outside of buildings shall be done so that they are not too bulky for existing facilities. The
Contractor shall provide special apparatus as required to handle any such items. All special handling
equipment charges shall be at the Contractor's expense. Further, Contractor shall include in its price for the
Work, all labor, materials, equipment and/or engineering services required to protect the adjacent properties
and/or structures from damage due to performance of the Work.
11.02. The Contractor shall be responsible for all power, light, and water required to perform the work.
11.03. Throughout the progress of the work, the Contractor shall keep the working area free from debris
of all types, and remove from premises all rubbish, resulting from any work being done by him. At the
completion of the work, the Contractor shall leave the premises in a clean and finished condition. Any
failure to do so may be remedied and charged back to the Contractor.
11.04. Layout of Work. Except as specifically provided herein, the Contractor shall lay out all work in a
manner acceptable to City's Representative in accordance with applicable City of College Station codes and
ordinances. City's Representative will review the Contractor's layout of all structures and any other layout
work done by the Contractor at the construction meeting, or at the Contractor's request, but this review
does not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility of accurately locating all work in accordance with the
plans and specifications.
11.05. Lines and Grades. All lines and grades shall be furnished by the Contractor. Benchmarks and
control stakes have been provided by the City’s Representative. All benchmarks and control stakes shall be
carefully preserved by the Contractor. In case of destruction or removal of the same by the Contractor, its
subcontractors, or employees, such stakes, marks, etc. shall be replaced by the Contractor at the
Contractor's expense. If the Contractor fails to do so, the City may do so and charge back the Contractor.
Additional construction staking as needed for the work, including lines and grades, shall be the sole
responsibility of the Contractor, and the Contractor shall receive no extra time or compensation therefor.
11.06. Contractor's Structures. The building or locating of structures for housing men or the erection of
tents or other forms of protection will be permitted only at such places as City's Representative shall permit.
The Contractor shall not damage the property where such structures are allowed and shall at all times
maintain sanitary conditions in and about such structures in a manner satisfactory to the City. The City may
charge the Contractor for any damage or injury to the City, its property, or third persons as a result of the
location or use of such structures.

Contract No. 16300454 Page 8
11.07. The Contractor and any entity over whom the Contractor has control shall not erect any sign on the
Project site without the prior written consent of the City.
11.08. City may have other work related to the Project performed at the Project site during the time the
Work is performed. Contractor should schedule its Work to coordinate with the work of other contractors
and utilities with the understanding that some of that work may be performed at times other than as set out
in the Contract Documents or as otherwise anticipated. City will endeavor to have such other work
performed so as not to unduly interfere with Contractor's performance when Contractor notifies City of
specific reasonable needs well in advance of those needs and where it is possible to do so. Although
Contractor should anticipate some delays and interference to its sequence of Work because of work by
other contractors and utilities, and will not be entitled to either an extension of time or additional
compensation because of them, in the event of substantial delay caused by another contractor or a utility,
after advance notice of its needs by Contractor, Contractor will be entitled to make a claim for an extension
of time as provided herein.
11.09. When two or more contractors, including Contractor, are employed on related or adjacent work or
obtain materials from the same material source, or when work must be completed by one contractor before
another can begin, each shall conduct his operations in such a manner as not to cause any unnecessary delay
or hindrance to the other. Each contractor, including Contractor if applicable, shall be responsible to the
other for all damage to work, to persons, or to property caused to the other by his operations, and for loss
caused the other due to unreasonable or unjustified delays or failure to finish the work or portions thereof,
or furnish materials within the time requested. Should Contractor cause damage to the work or property of
any separate contractor at the Project site, or should any claim arising out of Contractor's separate
contractor at the Project site, or should any claim arising out of Contractor's performance of the Work at
the Project site be made by any separate contractor against Contractor, City or other consultants, or any
other person, Contractor shall promptly attempt to settle with such other contractor by agreement, or to
otherwise resolve the dispute. Contractor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws,
indemnify and hold City harmless from and against all claims, damages, losses and expenses
(including, but not limited to, fees of architects, attorneys and other professionals and court costs)
arising directly, indirectly or consequentially out of any action, legal or equitable, brought by any
separate contractor against City to the extent based on a claim arising out of Contractor's
negligence.
12. MATERIALS
12.01. Materials or work described in words that when so applied have well-known technical or trade
meaning shall be held to refer to such recognized standards. All work shall be done and all materials
furnished in strict conformity with this Agreement, the other Contract Documents, and recognized industry
standards. When specific products, systems or items of equipment are referred to in the Contract
Documents, any ancillary devices necessary for connecting the products, systems or items of equipment
shall also be provided. When standards, codes, manufacturer’s instructions and guarantees are required by
the Contract Documents, the current edition at the time of Contract execution shall apply, unless another
edition is specified in the Contract Documents. References to standards, codes, manufacturer’s instructions

Contract Documents, and (2) any exclusions or waivers that are inconsistent with the Contract Documents

that it shall properly handle, transport, store and safeguard the materials.
(b) Further, the Contractor shall repair, repaint or replace any and all materials or any part

Representative.
(c) Before transporting any of the materials furnished or ordered by the City, the Contractor
shall establish to the City's satisfaction that it has obtained insurance against losses, theft, damage,
equal to or greater than the amounts spent by the City in securing said materials. It shall be
incumbent upon the Contractor to verify the cost of materials.
(d) The City shall not be obligated to furnish materials in excess of the quantities, size, kind, and
type set forth in the attached List of City Furnished Materials and List of Materials Ordered by the
City. If the City furnishes, and the Contractor accepts, materials in excess thereof, the values of
such excess materials shall be their actual cost as stated by the City.

materials and equipment on the List of Materials Ordered by the City at its expense and shall be
responsible for all shipping costs.
12.04. Materials and supplies shall be new and of good quality. Upon request, the Contractor shall
supply proof of quality and manufacturer. No refurbished, reconditioned, or other previously utilized
materials or supplies will be used without the prior signed authorization of City's Representative. The
Contractor may utilize substitutes of equal quality and function only upon the prior written authorization of
the City's Representative. The City's Representative may require documentation as to quality and function,
including manufacturer's specifications, to insure that the proposed substitute is equal to the required
material or supply. The City's Representative shall have sole discretion over the use of substitute materials
and supplies. Contractor shall bear the risk of any delay in performance caused by submitting substitutions.
12.05. Only materials and equipment which are to be used directly in the Work shall be brought to and
stored on the Project site by the Contractor. After equipment is no longer required for the Work, it shall be
promptly removed from the Project site. Protection of construction material and equipment stored at the
Project site from weather, theft, damage and all other perils is solely the responsibility of the Contractor.
13. ENTRY, OBSERVATION, TESTING & POSSESSION
13.01. The City reserves the right to enter the Project site or sites by such employee(s) or agent(s) as it may
elect for the purpose of inspecting the work. The City further reserves the right to enter the Project site or

Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 10
13.02. The City's Representative shall have the right, at all reasonable times, to observe and test the work.
The Contractor shall make necessary arrangements and provide proper facilities and access for such

Representative and shall give ample notice as to the time each part of the work will be ready for observation.

Documents, the City shall pay the costs of repair and restoration of the work.
13.04. City shall have the right to take possession of and use any completed or partially completed portions
of the Project prior to the time for completing the entire Project or such portions which may not have
expired. The parties agree and understand that possession and use shall not constitute an acceptance of any
work not completed in accordance with this Agreement. Further, insurance changes required to keep
Contractor’s insurance in effect shall be the responsibility of Contractor.
14. REJECTED WORK
14.01. All work deemed not in conformity with this Agreement as determined by the City in its sole
discretion, may be rejected by the City. City's Representative may reject any work found to be defective or
not in accordance with the Contract Documents, regardless of the stage of the work's completion or the
time or place of discovery of such defects or inconsistencies and regardless of whether City's Representative
has previously accepted the work through oversight or otherwise. Neither observations nor inspections,
tests, or approvals made by City's Representative, or other persons authorized under this Agreement to
make such observations, inspections, tests, or approvals, shall relieve the Contractor from the obligation to
perform the work in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement and the other Contract
Documents.
14.02. If the work or any part thereof is rejected by the City, it shall be deemed by City's Representative as
not in conformity with this Agreement. Any remedial action required, as set forth herein, shall be at the
Contractor's expense, as follows:
(a) The Contractor may be required, at the City's option, after notice from City's Representative,
to remedy such work so that it shall be in full compliance with this Agreement. All rejected work or
materials shall be immediately replaced in order to conform with this Agreement.
(b) If the City deems it inexpedient to correct work damaged or not done in accordance with
this Agreement, an equitable deduction from the agreed sum may be made by the City at the City's
sole discretion.
15. SUBCONTRACTING & SUBCONTRACTORS
15.01. The Contractor agrees that it will retain personal control and will give its personal attention to the
fulfillment of this Agreement. The Contractor further agrees that subletting of any portion or feature of the
work or materials required in the performance of this Agreement shall not relieve the Contractor from its
full obligation to the City as provided by this Agreement.
15.02. Subcontractors must be approved by City's Representative prior to hiring or beginning any work on
the Project. If City's Representative judges any subcontractor to be failing to perform the work in strict
accordance with the drawings and specifications, the Contractor, after due notice, shall discharge the same,
but this shall in no way release the Contractor from its obligations and responsibility under this Agreement.
Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 11
Every subcontractor shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Contract
Documents as far as applicable to their work. The Contractor shall be fully responsible to the City for the
acts and omissions of its subcontractors. Nothing contained herein shall create any contractual or
employment relations between any subcontractor and the City.
16. PAYMENT
16.01. The City stipulates that it is an exempt organization as defined by the Limited Sales, Excise and Use
Tax Act and, as such, is exempt from the payment of the sales tax on materials and supplies used in the
performance of this Contract. The Contractor shall issue exemption certificates to its suppliers and
Subcontractors in lieu of said sales tax for all such materials and supplies, and said exemption certificates
must comply with the State Comptroller’s Ruling No. 95-0.07 and shall be subject to the provision of the
State Comptroller’s Ruling No. 95-0.09, effective October 1, 1969.
16.02. Progress Payment Applications. The Contractor shall submit applications for payment as
provided for herein. Applications for payment will be processed by City's Representative. Before the first
Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit to the City a schedule of values allocated to various
portions of the Work, prepared in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the
City may require. This schedule, unless objected to by the City, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the
Contractor’s Applications for Payment. On or before the 5th day of each month, the Contractor shall
submit to City's Representative, for approval or modification, a statement showing as completely as
practicable the total value of the actual work performed by the Contractor and accepted by the City up to
and including the last day of the preceding month. The statement shall also include the value of all
materials not previously submitted for payment which have been delivered to the site but have not yet been
incorporated into the work.
16.03. Progress Payments. On or before the 30th calendar day following the City's receipt of a progress
payment application made in conformity with Paragraph 16.02, the City shall pay to the Contractor the
approved amount of the progress payment based on the Contractor's applications for payment, and the
recommendation and approval of City's Representative. Prior to Substantial Completion, progress
payments will be made in an amount equal to the percentage of work completed by the Contractor and
approved by the City, but in each case less the aggregate of payments previously made, less retainage, and
less amounts as City's Representative shall determine and the City may withhold in accordance with this
Agreement. Upon Final Completion, including the delivery of all close out documents, such as “as built”
drawings, warranties, guarantees, required additional materials, releases, operation and maintenance manuals,
and acceptance of the work in accordance with this Agreement, the City shall pay the remainder of the
balance due under this Agreement, less any sums withheld under other terms of this Agreement and less the
retainage, which shall be retained for a period of thirty (30) calendar days from the date of Final
Completion. Acceptance of retainage by Contractor shall constitute a Waiver and Release of all claims by
Contractor.
16.04. Retainage. From each approved statement, the City shall retain until final payment, ten percent
(10%), where the full contract amount is less than $400,000.00, and five percent (5%), where the full
contract amount is $400,000.00 or more. The City may also retain from each approved statement any other
sums authorized under the terms of this Agreement.
16.05. If the actual amount of work to be done and the materials to be furnished differ from estimates and
where the basis for payment is the unit price method, then payment shall be for the actual amount of
accepted work done and materials furnished on the Project.
16.06. Reduction in the scope or quantity of work on unit price items shall merely reduce the number of
units. In the event that materials have been delivered prior to notice of such reduction, the City will have
the option either to pay freight & transportation costs and any re-stocking charges actually incurred by the
Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 12
Contractor or to purchase the materials. The Contractor shall never be entitled to anticipated or lost profits
on the deleted or reduced portion of a job, whether bid on a unit price or lump sum basis.
16.07. The Contractor shall have the sole obligation to pay any and all charges or fees and give all notices
necessary to and incidental to the lawful prosecution of the work hereunder. The Contractor shall not and
shall have no authority whatsoever to obligate the City to make any payments to another party nor make any
promises or representation of any nature on behalf of the City, without the specific written approval of the
City.
16.08. The Contractor shall include in the Contract Sum all allowances stated in the Contract Documents.
Items covered by allowances shall be supplied for such amounts and by such persons or entities as the City
may direct, but the Contractor shall not be required to employ persons or entities to whom the Contractor
has reasonable objection.
16.09. Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents:
(a) allowances shall cover the cost to the Contractor of materials and equipment delivered at the
site and all required taxes, less applicable trade discounts;
(b) Contractor’s costs for unloading and handling at the site, labor, installation costs, overhead,
profit and other expenses contemplated for stated allowance amounts shall be included in
the Contract Amount but not in the allowances;
(c) whenever costs are more than or less than allowances, the Contract Amount shall be
adjusted accordingly by Change Order. The amount of the Change Order shall reflect (1)
the difference between actual costs and the allowances under Paragraph 16.9(a) and (2)
changes in the Contractor’s costs under Paragraph 16.9(b).
16.10. Suspension of Payments. The City, at any time, may suspend monthly progress payments on the
work if it determines that the projected liquidated damages may exceed retainage. The City, at any time,
may suspend monthly progress payments if it believes that the Contractor will not complete the work due to
actual default or that the Contractor has represented or done some act that indicates that it will not
complete the work in accordance with this Agreement or within the time period submitted in its bid.
Provided, however, City is in no way obligated to Contractor’s surety to withhold payment pursuant to the
provisions of this Paragraph.
16.11. Withhold Funds. Regardless of any bond, the City may, on account of subsequently discovered
evidence and in addition to the retainage withheld under Paragraph 16.04, withhold funds or nullify all or
part of any acceptance or certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect itself from loss on
account of any of the following, or as otherwise provided in this Agreement:
(a) Defective work.
(b) Claims made or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims by unpaid vendors
or other third parties.
(c) Failure of the Contractor to make prompt payments to subcontractors for labor or material
or materialmen.
(d) Claims made or reasonable evidence indicating claims will be made for damage to another
by the Contractor.
(e) Claims made or reasonable evidence indicating claims will be made for damage to third
parties, including adjacent property owners.
(f) Claims made or reasonable evidence indicating claims will be made for unremedied damage
to property owned by the City.
(g) City's determination of an amount of liquidated damages.
(h) Charges made for repairs to the Contractor's defective work or repairs made by the City to
correct damage to other property.

(i) Other amounts authorized under this Agreement or under any other agreement made
between City and Contractor.
Provided, however, City is in no way obligated to Contractor’s surety to withhold payment pursuant to the
provisions of this Paragraph.
17. EXTRA WORK CHARGES
17.01. No changes shall be made, nor will bills for changes, alterations, modifications, deviations, and extra
orders be recognized or paid for except upon the written order from authorized personnel of the City.
17.02. For "Extra Work", as defined in Paragraph 1.07 and authorized through written change orders, and
pursuant to Section 252.048(d) of the Texas Local Government Code, the original contract price may not be
increased by more than twenty-five percent (25%). Written change orders that do not exceed twenty-five
percent (25%) of the original contract amount may be made or approved by the City Manager or his
delegate if the change order is less than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00). Changes in excess of Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) must be approved by the City Council prior to commencement of the
services or work. Any requests by the Contractor for a change to the Contract Amount shall be made
prior to the beginning of the work covered by the proposed change or the right to payment for
Extra Work shall be waived. No course of conduct or dealings between the parties, nor implied
acceptance of alterations or additions to the Work or changes to the Contract schedule shall be the basis for
any claim for an increase in compensation or change in time. Any cost incurred by Contractor in
connection with any Extra Work shall be included in Contractor’s requested change order and Contractor’s
failure to include any such cost shall act to Waive and Release any claim for such non included cost.
17.03. The Contractor shall complete all work as specified or indicated in the Contract Documents. The
Contractor shall complete all Extra Work in connection therewith. All work and materials shall be in strict
conformity with the specifications. The Substantial Completion of the work shall not excuse the Contractor
from performing all the work undertaken, whether of a minor or major nature, and thereby completing the
Project in accordance with the Contract Documents. In the event that the Contractor fails to perform the
work as required for Substantial Completion or Final Completion, the City may contract with a third party
to complete the work and the Contractor shall assume and pay the costs of the performance of the work as
contracted.
(a) It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all Extra Work under the direction of City's
Representative when presented with a written work order signed by City.
(b) No claim for Extra Work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by the
City. In case any orders or instructions appear to the Contractor to involve Extra Work for which it
should receive compensation or an adjustment in the construction time, it shall make written request
to City's Representative for a written order from City authorizing such Extra Work.
(c) Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute Extra Work, or
as to the payment therefor, and the City insists upon its performance, then the Contractor shall
proceed with the work after making written requests for written orders in a change order and shall
keep adequate and accurate account of the actual field costs therefor, as provided under Method C.
(d) It is also agreed that the compensation to be paid to the Contractor for performing Extra
Work shall be determined by one or more of the following methods:
Method A - By agreed unit prices, or
Method B - By agreed lump sum, or
Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 14
Method C - If neither Method A nor Method B is agreed upon before the Extra Work is
commenced, then the Contractor shall be paid the actual field cost of the
work.
(e) Method A - Unit Prices. The Contractor agrees to perform Extra Work for the unit prices
in the Contractor's Proposal. The Contractor also agrees and warrants that when it is necessary to
construct units not shown in the Contract Documents, it shall construct such units for a price
arrived at as follows:
(1) The cost of materials shall be determined by the invoices;
(2) The cost of labor shall be the reasonable cost thereof, as determined by the City, but
in no event shall it exceed an amount determined by calculating the ratio of the total labor
costs to the total costs to the total material costs in the section of the Proposal involved, and
multiplying the cost of materials for the unit in question by this ratio. Provided, however,
that the ratio shall be calculated for only those units that are similar to the new unit for
which a price is to be determined.
(f) Method B - Lump Sum. The lump sum shall be reasonably close to the amount for similar
work previously done or combinations of similar units. Invoices for materials used shall be
provided in support of the agreed lump sum.
(g) Method C - Actual Field Costs. The actual field cost is hereby defined to include the cost
of all applicable workmen and laborers, as well as materials, supplies, teams, trucks, rentals on
machinery and equipment, for the time actually employed or used for such Extra Work, plus actual
transportation charges necessarily incurred, together with other costs reasonably incurred directly on
account of such Extra Work, including social security, old age benefits, maintenance bonds, public
liability, property damage, worker's compensation, and all other insurance as may be required by law
or ordinances or required and agreed to by the City or City's Representative. City's Representative
may direct the form in which accounts of the actual field costs shall be kept and records of these
accounts shall be made available to City's Representative. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the prices
for the use of machinery and equipment shall be determined by using one hundred percent (100%),
unless otherwise specified, of the latest schedule of equipment and ownership expenses adopted by
the Associated General Contractors of America. Where practical, the terms and prices for the use of
machinery and equipment shall be incorporated in the written Extra Work order. Actual field costs
shall not exceed the prevailing market price therefor within reasonable tolerances as determined by
City's Representative. The amount due to Contractor for costs other than actual field costs shall be
calculated in accordance with the following standards:
(1) No indirect or consequential damages will be allowed.
(2) All damages must be directly and specifically shown to be caused by a proven wrong.
No recovery shall be based on a comparison by planned expenditures to total actual
expenditures or on estimated losses of labor efficiency, or on a comparison of planned
manloading to actual manloading, or any other analysis that is used to show damages
indirectly.
(3) Damages are limited to extra costs specifically shown to have been directly caused by a
proven wrong.
(4) The maximum daily limit on any recovery for delay shall be the amount established by
the Contractor for job overhead costs, defined in the pay applications, divided by the
total number of days specified for completion called for in the original Contract. Absent
Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 15
an overhead amount in the Schedule of Values, the amount estimated by Contractor for
job overhead cost shall be used.

written notice that the work has been Substantially Completed, City's Representative shall inspect the work
for the preparation of a final punch list.
(a) If City's Representative and the City find that the work is not Substantially Completed, then
they shall so notify the Contractor who shall then complete the work. City's Representative shall not
be required to provide a list of unfinished work.
(b) If the City Representative and City find that the work is Substantially Completed, the City
shall issue to the Contractor its certificate of Substantial Completion.
19.02. The Substantial Completion of the work shall not excuse the Contractor from performing all of the

with the Contract Documents.
20. FINAL COMPLETION
20.01. Contractor shall notify the City's Representative when it believes that the work has reached Final
Completion as defined in Paragraph 1.08. If the City's Representative and the City accept and deems such

municipal, or other authorities and submit the same to the City. The City may withhold any payments due
under this Agreement until the necessary certificates are procured and delivered.
20.03. Neither the final payment nor any acceptance nor certificate nor any provision of this Agreement
shall relieve the Contractor of any responsibility for faulty workmanship or materials. At the option of the
City, the Contractor shall remedy any defects and pay for any damage to other work which may appear after
final acceptance of the work.

Contract No. 16300454 Page 16
21. DELAYS
21.01. The Contractor, in undertaking to complete the work within the times herein fixed, has taken into
consideration and made allowance for all hindrances and delays incident to such work, whether growing out
of delays in securing material or workmen or delays arising from inclement weather or otherwise.
21.02. The City may, in its sole discretion, delay the work during inclement weather in order to preserve the
Project, insure safety of work forces, and the preservation of materials and equipment. In such event and
upon a written request from the Contractor, the City may grant an extension of time pursuant to Paragraph
22 to offset for such stoppage of the work.
21.03. In the event of delays resulting from changes ordered in the work by the City or other delays caused
by the City or for the City’s convenience, the Contractor may apply to the City for recovery of incidental
damages resulting from increased storage costs or other costs necessary to protect the value of the work. In
no event shall any consequential or other damages be allowed or any other charges or claims be made by the
Contractor for hindrances or delays resulting from any other cause.
22. EXTENSIONS OF TIME
The Contractor has submitted its proposal in full recognition of the time required for the completion of this
Project, taking into consideration all factors including, but not limited to the average climatic range and
industrial conditions. The Contractor has considered the liquidated damage provision of this Agreement
and understands and agrees that it shall not be entitled to, nor will it request, an extension of time for either
Substantial Completion or Final Completion, except when the work has been delayed by one or more of the
following:
(1) an act or neglect of the City, the City's Representative, employees of the City, or other contractors
employed by the City;
(2) by changes ordered in the work, or reductions thereto approved in writing;
(3) by "rain days" (days with rainfall in excess of one-tenth of an inch) during the term of this
Agreement that exceed the average number of rain days for such term for this locality, both as
determined by the Texas A&M University weather service; or
(4) by other causes that the City and the Contractor agree may reasonably justify delay and that were
beyond the Contractor’s reasonable control and ability to estimate, predict, or avoid, such as delays
caused by unforeseen labor disputes, fire, natural disasters, acts of war, and other rare and
unpredictable events. This term does not include normal delays incident to the delivery of
materials, tools, or labor that reasonably could have been predicted and/or accounted for in the
Contractor’s proposal or decision to bid.
If one or more of the foregoing conditions is present, the Contractor may apply in writing for an extension
of time, within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of the event causing the delay, submitting therewith all
written justification as may be required by the City's Representative. Within ten (10) calendar days after
receipt of a written request for an extension of time, which is supported by all requested documentation, the
City shall, in writing and in its sole discretion, grant or deny the request. Under no circumstances shall any
extension of time by the City be valid and binding unless it is in writing and in conformity with the other
terms of this Agreement.
23. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
23.01. The time for the Substantial and Final Completion of the work described herein are reasonable
times for the completion of each, taking into consideration all conditions, including but not limited to the
average climatic conditions and usual industrial conditions prevailing in this locality. The amount of
liquidated damages for the Contractor's failure to meet the deadlines for Substantial and/or Final
Form Revised on 7-10-12
Contract No. 16300454 Page 17
Completion are fixed and agreed on by the Contractor because of the impracticability and extreme difficulty
in fixing and ascertaining the actual damages that the City would in such an event sustain. The amounts to
be charged are agreed to be damages the City would sustain and shall be retained by the City from current
periodic estimates for payment or from final payment.
23.02. As a result of the difficulty in estimation, calculation and ascertainment of City’s damages due to a
failure of Contractor to achieve timely completion of the Work, if the Contractor should neglect, fail, or
refuse to either Substantially Complete or Finally Complete the work within the time herein specified, or any
proper extension thereof granted by the City's Representative pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 22 of this
Agreement, then the Contractor does hereby agree as part of the consideration for the awarding of this
Agreement that the City may permanently withhold from the Contractor's total compensation the sum of
TWO HUNDRED AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($200.00) for each and every calendar day that the
Contractor shall be in default after the time stipulated for Substantial Completion and/or Final Completion,
not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages for the breach of this Agreement. It being specifically

the deadlines specified for Substantial Completion and/or Final Completion.
24. CHARGES FOR INJURY OR REPAIR
24.01. The Contractor shall be liable for any damages incurred or repairs made necessary by reason of its
work and/or caused by it. Repairs of any kind required by the City will be made and charged to the

25.07. After receipt of written notice from the City to begin corrective work, the Contractor shall promptly
begin the corrective work. The obligation to correct any defective work shall survive the termination of this
Agreement. The guarantee to correct the defective work shall not constitute the exclusive remedy of City,
nor shall other remedies be limited to the terms of either the warranty or the guarantee.

28.02. The Contractor may make such changes and alterations as the City may require in the work or any
part thereof without affecting the validity of this Agreement and any accompanying bond. If such changes
or alterations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for any claim

29. SURETY
29.01. If the Contractor has abandoned the Project or the City has terminated the contract for cause and
the Contractor’s Surety, after notice demanding completion is sent, fails to commence the completion of the
work in compliance with this Agreement, then the City at its option may provide for completion of the
work in either of the following manners:
29.01.01. The City may employ such force of men and use of instruments, machinery, equipment, tools,
materials, and supplies as said the City may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of
such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, materials, and supplies to said the Contractor, and the expense so
charged shall be deducted and paid by the City out of such monies as may be due or that may thereafter at
any time become due to the Contractor and Surety.
29.01.02. The City may, after notice published as required by law, accept sealed bids and let this Agreement
for the completion of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions that are provided in this
Agreement. In case of any increase in cost to the City under the new agreement as compared to what would
have been the cost under this Agreement, such increase together with all of the City’s damages due to
Contractor’s abandonment and/or default, including liquidated damages, as provided pursuant to Paragraph
38, entitled “TERMINATION FOR CAUSE” shall be charged to the Contractor and the surety shall be
and remain bound therefor. However, should the cost to complete such new agreement prove to be less
than that which would have been the cost to complete the work under this Agreement, the Contractor shall
be credited therewith after all deductions are made in accordance with this Agreement.
29.02. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the Contract Amount and the Contractor fails to pay
the amount due to the City within the time designated and there remains any machinery, equipment, tools,
materials, or supplies on the site of the work, notice thereof, together with an itemized list of such
equipment and materials, shall be mailed to the Contractor at its respective address designated in this
Agreement; provided, however, that actual written notice given in any manner shall satisfy this condition.
After mailing, or otherwise giving such notice, such property shall be held at the risk of the Contractor
subject only to the duty of City's Representative to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After
fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of said notice, City's Representative may sell such machinery,
equipment, tools, materials, or supplies and apply the net sum derived from such sale to the credit of the
Contractor. Such sale may be made at either public or private sale, with or without notice, as City's
Representative may elect. City's Representative shall release any machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or
supplies which remain on the job site and belong to persons other than the Contractor to their proper
owners.
29.03. In the event the account shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which would
have been the cost to City had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this
Agreement, or when the Contractor shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the City, then all
machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the
Contractor.
30. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
30.01. The Contractor's work and materials shall comply with all state and federal laws, municipal
ordinances, regulations, codes, and directions of inspectors appointed by proper authorities having
jurisdiction.
30.02. The Contractor shall perform and require all subcontractors to perform the work in accordance with
applicable laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations of the State of Texas and the United States and in
compliance with OSHA and other laws as they apply to its employees. In the event any of the conditions of
the specifications violate the code for any industry, then such code conditions shall prevail.

processes for which the Contractor shall be solely responsible. The Contractor is solely responsible for
handling and use of hazardous materials or waste, and informing employees of any such hazardous materials
or waste. The Contractor shall provide copies of all hazardous materials and waste data sheets to the
College Station Fire Department marked "Attn.: Assistant Chief".
31.02. The Contractor has the sole obligation to protect or warn any individual of potential hazards created
by the performance of the work set forth herein. The Contractor shall, at its own expense, take such
precautionary measures for the protection of persons, property, and the work as may be necessary.
31.03. The Contractor shall be held responsible for all damages to property, personal injuries and/or death
due to failure of safety devices of any type or nature that may be required to protect or warn any individual
of potential hazards created by the performance of the work set forth herein; and when any property
damage is incurred, the damaged portion shall immediately be replaced or compensated for by the
Contractor at its own cost and expense.

City and all of its respective officials, agents and employees harmless from and against any and all
claims, damages, losses, causes of action, suits and liabilities of every kind, including, but not
limited to, expenses of litigation, court costs, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees, arising out of,
incidental to or resulting from the activities prohibited in this Paragraph 31.04.
31.05. In the event Contractor encounters on the Project site any Hazardous Substance, or what
Contractor may reasonably believe to be a Hazardous Substance, and which is being introduced to the
Work, or exists on the Project site, in a manner violative of any applicable Environmental Laws, Contractor
shall immediately stop work in the area affected and report the condition to City in writing. The Work in
the affected area shall not thereafter be resumed except by written authorization of City if in fact a
Hazardous Substance has been encountered and has not been rendered harmless. In the event Contractor
fails to stop the Work upon encountering a Hazardous Substance at the Project site, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, Contractor hereby indemnifies and holds City and all of its officials, agents and
employees harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, causes of action, suits
and liabilities of every kind, including, but not limited to, expenses of litigation, court costs,
punitive damages and attorneys' fees, arising out of, incidental to or resulting from Contractor's
failure to stop the Work.
31.06. City and Contractor may enter into a separate agreement and/or Change Order for Contractor to
remediate and/or render harmless the Hazardous Substance, but Contractor shall not be required to
remediate and/or render harmless the Hazardous Substance absent such agreement. Contractor shall not be
required to resume work in any area affected by the Hazardous Substance until such time as the Hazardous
Substance has been remediated and/or rendered harmless.

Exhibit A - FY16 Budget Amendment #2 Detail Listing
The proposed budget amendment is to increase the FY16 budget for the items listed below by $626,873.
Also included is one contingency transfer item and one inter-fund transfer. Contingency transfers
greater than $50,000 and inter-fund transfers require Council approval and are therefore included as
part of this Budget Amendment. This amendment also reduces the net Full-Time-Equivalent (FTE)
personnel count by 5.0 positions.
1. General Fund Pay Plan Contingency Budget Transfer – $358,306 (Contingency Transfer)
As part of the FY16 Approved Budget, $641,704 was allocated in the General Fund for the first
phase of the implementation of the salary survey recommendations. The entire $641,704 will be
utilized, however due to the timing of the implementation of the results, the estimated FY16
impact to the General Fund departments is $358,306. The remaining funds will stay in the fund
balance to offset the recurring fiscal impact in future years. This item will allow for the transfer
of the budget from a pay plan contingency account in the General Fund to the applicable
General Fund Departmental accounts. Intra-departmental transfers within the General Fund, as
well as contingency transfers greater than $50,000, must be approved by Council.
2. Police Department Grants – $156,197 (Budget Amendment)
In FY16, the City of College Station Police Department has been awarded several grants. These
grant funds were used to purchase bullet proof vests, firearms and a variety of other equipment.
The funds for these purchases have been reimbursed by the grants or have been requested for
reimbursement. This item will appropriate budget in the Police Department to offset the grant
expenditures that have been incurred.
3. Budget Increase for Holiday Pay in Police Department – $125,000 (Budget Amendment)
As part of the FY16 Approved Budget, an SLA was included to account for a change in how the
sworn officers in the Police Department are compensated for time worked on holidays. After the
program was put into place, it was determined that additional funds were needed in order to
fully fund the program. This item will appropriate budget in the Police Department to offset the
costs that have been incurred related to the implementation of this program. The FY17
proposed budget has been adjusted accordingly.
4. Police Department Body Camera and In Car Camera Contract – $50,440 (Budget Amendment)
On June 23, 2016, Council approved a contract for the replacement of the Police Department’s
current in-car camera system to an expanded in-car camera system that includes body cameras.
As the replacement of the system is not budgeted for FY16, this budget amendment item in the
amount of $50,440 is requested in Equipment Replacement Fund to cover the first phase of year
1 of the contract. This FY16 budget increase is covered by funds previously contributed to the
Equipment Replacement Fund for replacement of the existing system.
5. Police Seizure Fund One-time Purchases – $37,000 (Budget Amendment)
The Police Seizure Fund accounts for items received by the City through the Police Department
as a result of criminal investigations. In FY16, more funds have been received than were
anticipated. This item will provide the budget appropriation in the Police Seizure Fund so that
this revenue can be used for one-time purchases to assist in police activities.
6. E-Citation Writers in the Court Technology Fund – $18,900 (Budget Amendment)
This item is for the purchase of ten (10) Zebra Enterprise e-citation ticket-writing devices in
order to increase availability of the devices to officers (the devices are currently shared by
several officers on a “check out” basis). The budget amendment will be funded with Court
Technology Fund balance.
Exhibit A - FY16 Budget Amendment #2 Detail Listing
7. Budget Transfer from Court Security Fund General Fund – $19,960 (Budget Transfer)
This item will transfer to the General Fund a portion of the salary and benefits budget that is
currently budgeted in the Court Security Fund for the Deputy Court Marshal position. The Court
Security Fund is funded by court fees that have been declining in recent years, resulting in a
drop in revenue. This transfer will move one half of the Deputy Court Marshal’s salary and
benefits budget to the General Fund, where the corresponding expenditures will be incurred.
The FY17 proposed budget has been adjusted accordingly.
8. Senior Planner Position – (1.0 FTE Increase)
In order to focus on the core services of providing quality reviews and inspections of the built
environment, regular review, updates, and continuing to respond to increased service demands
a Senior Planner position was added mid-year to the Planning and Development Services
Department. The funding for FY16 will come from department saving in Planning and
Development Services. The FY17 proposed budget has been adjusted accordingly.
9. Compensation Analyst Position – (1.0 FTE Increase)
A Compensation Analyst position was added mid-year to Human Resources in order to
contribute to and maintain the salary structure that is in the process of being updated for FY16
and FY17. The position is expected to be hired in June. The funding for FY16 will come from
department saving in Human Resources. The FY17 proposed budget has been adjusted
accordingly.
10. Staff Accountant Position – $13,870 (Budget Amendment and 1.0 FTE increase)
A Staff Accountant position was added to Fiscal Services mid-year in order to address additional
responsibilities that presented themselves during the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
(CAFR) reporting process as well as with the continued ERP implementation. This addition will
remain critical with the continued growth of the City. This position was hired in May, however,
due to savings in other position changes, only $13,870 is needed to fund this position for the
remainder of FY16. The FY17 proposed budget has been adjusted accordingly.
11. Meter Reading Contract Labor – $127,576 (Budget Amendment and 8.0 FTE Decrease)
Due to high rates of turnover and frequent vacancies in the Meter Services division of Utility
Customer Service, a decision was made and approved by Council in FY16 to outsource the meter
reading function. The an anticipated cost difference of $127,576 due, in part, to the timing of
the contract as there was overlap in FY16 between the contract start and the reduction of the
8.0 positions that previously handled the meter reading. The difference in future years should
not be as significant and the FY17 proposed budget has been adjusted accordingly. The funding
for this item will come from the Utility Customer Service Fund balance.
12. Credit Card Fees in Utility Customer Services – $40,000 (Budget Amendment)
Credit card fees have been increasing in volume as more customers use their credit cards to pay
their utility bills and hookup fees. This budget amendment item will provide the additional
budget needed to offset this overage. The increase will be funded out of the Utility Customer
Service Fund balance. The FY17 proposed budget has been adjusted accordingly.
13. Drainage Trailer Mounted Vacon – $57,890 (Budget Amendment)
The FY16 Approved Budget included a Service Level Adjustment (SLA) in the amount of $80,000
for a Drainage Trailer Mounted Vacon equipment. After further review, it has been determined
Exhibit A - FY16 Budget Amendment #2 Detail Listing
that additional funds will be needed for the purchase. This item will appropriate the additional
needed budget and the difference will come from the Drainage Fund balance.

Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Diverse Growing Economy
Recommendation(s):The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their July 7,
2016 meeting. The Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the applicants request
with staff’s recommendation to limit the size of the permitted retail sales use to a maximum of 15,000
square feet.
Summary:This request is to rezone the subject property from R Rural to PDD Planned Development
College Station, TX Printed on 7/22/2016Page 1 of 4

File #:16-0441,Version:1
District with a base zoning district of BP Business Park. This request is being made as a step toward
developing a mixed-use office complex. The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following
review criteria for zoning map amendments:
REVIEW CRITERIA
1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject lot is designated Business Park on the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map and is also located in Presidential Corridor
Gateway District. With easy access to Easterwood Airport and being in close proximity to the recently built
Health Science Center as part of the Texas A&M University System, this Gateway District should be
accommodating business including research and development, office, and light industrial. These uses
should build on the assets existing in the area while protecting and enhancing this primary gateway into
the City. The proposed development is consistent with the allowable land uses for Presidential Corridor
Gateway District and also with surrounding future land use designations.
2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the
character of the neighborhood: The existing R Rural zoning allows for large lot residential and/or
agricultural uses, which is not compatible or supportive of more intense development that is anticipated for
the area. Given the property’s close proximity to the BioCorridor Planned Development District, this area is
expected to contain uses that support the investment plan that has been set in this District. An R Rural
designation does not support the planned growth.
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 proposed land uses permitted through
this request are those allowed in BP Business Park with the addition of education facilities, college and
university, educational facility-indoor instruction hotels, restaurant, day care (commercial), Nightclub, Bar
or Tavern, permitted with a Conditional Use Permit, and retail sales and service. The additional uses are
uses that would be seen more in a General Commercial zoning district as they are services that would
serve the larger region. While the BP Business Park designation is intended for more industrial, research
and development or office development activity, the additional uses are appropriate as they support the
sues planned in the BioCorridor PDD and the property’s frontage along State Highway 47 and Health
Science Center Parkway. Staff is recommending a size restriction be placed on retail sales uses of a
maximum of 15, 000 square feet each as the direction given and planned for this area directly outside of
the BioCorridor PDD includes some allowances for small scale retail/sales to support the district and the
immediate area while restricting the opportunity for regionally serving ‘big box’ retailers. The intent of the
area surrounding the BioCorridor District is to help preserve and support the district by providing similar
and supplementary uses that focus on research and development, manufacturing, office uses, and other
additional uses that would serve those that live and work in the area. The applicant feels the request to
add the additional uses are necessary to provide an atmosphere capable of creating the mixed use
development desired for the BioCorridor 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 property is currently zoned R
Rural. The current zoning district is suitable for the property given the similar zonings and uses of nearby
property. However, this is one of the first rezoning’s requested in the area outside of the BioCorridor PDD.
While R Rural is suitable with the current land uses the area is expected to see continued change moving
forward.
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 can currently be
marketed under the existing R Rural zoning district. However, the applicant has stated that the use is not
appropriate or feasible for this property knowing the current development happening on nearby property
and the anticipated change in development pattern for the area.
6.Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally suitable
College Station, TX Printed on 7/22/2016Page 2 of 4
powered by Legistar™
File #:16-0441,Version:1
and adequate for the proposed use: There is an existing 18-inch water main to the northeast of the
property, which will need to be extended to and through the property to provide water service. The sanitary
service for this property will be provided by the City of Bryan. Drainage and other public infrastructure
required with site development shall be designed and constructed in accordance with BCS Unified Design
Guidelines. Existing infrastructure appears to be adequate for the proposed use at this time. Access to this
portion of the property with the extension of a Public Way that will be constructed with the development of
the adjacent property to the East. Considering the proposed uses a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) may be
required with the site development of this property.
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 Concept Plan includes uses permitted through BP Business Park with the addition of
education facilities, college and university, educational facility- indoor instruction, hotels, restaurant, and retail
sales and service as permitted uses. The development will follow all requirements of BP Business Park zoning
district with buildings ranging in height from 25 feet to 76 feet following the Easterwood Airport height
restrictions.

Uses permitted under BP Business Park zoning
Base Zoning and Meritorious Modifications
At the time of site plan, the project will need to meet all applicable site development standards and platting
requirements of the Unified Development Ordinance for the BP Business Park zoning, except where
meritorious modifications are granted with the PDD zoning. The applicant is requesting the following
meritorious modification:
Allowing education facilities, college and university, educational facility- indoor instruction, hotels, day
care-commercial, nightclub, bar or tavern permitted with a conditional use permit, restaurant, and retail
sales and service as permitted uses.
Community Benefits
The applicant has listed the following as community benefits proposed by the development that will offset the
modifications requested under the PDD Planned Development District:

Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their June 16,
2016 meeting and voted 6-0 to recommend approval.

Character designations and calls for the creation of zoning districts that align with the objectives of
the Plan as one means of implementation.Since the adoption of the plan,several zoning districts

the Plan as one means of implementation.Since the adoption of the plan,several zoning districts
have been created that can be used city wide that also comply with the vision of the Wellborn
Community Plan.Using the land uses adopted as part of the Wellborn Community Plan and
stakeholder feedback,staff proposes two new residential districts and one new commercial district
that will only be permitted in the Wellborn Community Plan Area.
WE Wellborn Estate -This land use designation is generally for areas that,due to public
service limitations or a prevailing rural character,should have limited development activities.
These areas will tend to consist of low-density single-family residential lots of two acres or
more but may be one acre if clustered around undeveloped open space.
WRS Wellborn Restricted Suburban - This district is generally for areas that should have a
moderate level of development activities. These areas will tend to consist of medium-density
single-family residential lots (minimum 20,000 square feet) and may be clustered for reduced
lot sizes (minimum 8,000 square feet). When using the cluster option, open space should be
provided so density is not increased. Such open space should be in addition to a minimum
open space requirement of 15% of the developing area.
WC Wellborn Commercial -This district is generally for concentrations of commercial activities
that focus primarily on the nearby residents versus the larger community.Such uses shall be
limited in size and not accommodate for drive-thru services.Specific design elements should
be incorporated into such developments so as to limit the visual impact on the community and
enhance the defined character.
Public Input Process -A focus group meeting was held on November 10,2016 at the Greens Prairie
Elementary School and was attended by approximately 27 community members.Information
regarding the meeting was mailed to residents,property owners,and business owners within the
Wellborn Community Plan Area.Signs were also posted along major streets in the Wellborn area.
The purpose of the meeting was to discuss draft concept sheets for the new districts based on the
direction of the Wellborn Community Plan.Information gathered during the public meeting was used
to revise the draft fact sheets and posted online for public review.Online review was open from
February 18,2016 to March 11,2016 and three contacts were received.Staff continued to accept
feedback after the review period closed to receive additional input.
The new zoning districts were developed from feedback received from community members along
with the language provided in the Wellborn Community Plan.

Sec. 12-5.3. - Non-Residential Zoning Districts.
A. Natural Areas Protected (NAP).
This district is designed for publicly-owned property or private property intended for the conservation
of natural areas. Properties with this designation are relatively undeveloped and are often used for
recreational or open space purposes or for the conveyance of floodwaters. Properties with this
designation are not projected for conversion to more intense land use in the future by the
Comprehensive Plan.
B. Office (O).
This district will accommodate selected commercial businesses that provide a service rather than sell
products, either retail or wholesale. The uses allowed have relatively low traffic generation and require
limited location identification.
C. Suburban Commercial (SC).
Page 12
This district is intended to provide for low-density commercial uses that provide services to nearby
neighborhoods. The SC Suburban Commercial District is intended to be compatible with the character
of suburban single-family neighborhoods. Buildings have a residential character and scal e, and sites
are heavily landscaped to minimize the impacts of non-residential uses and associated parking areas
on adjacent residential zoning districts. The district allows for a range of uses, with the impacts
mitigated through buffering and architecture of the buildings.
D. Wellborn Commercial (WC).
This district is intended to provide for low-density commercial uses that provide services to nearby
neighborhoods. Such uses shall be limited in size and not accommodate for drive-thru services.
Specific design elements should be incorporated into such developments to limit the visual impact on
the community and enhance the defined character. This zoning distict is only permitted in areas
designated as Wellborn Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use and Character Map.
E. General Commercial (GC).
This district is designed to provide locations for general commercial purposes, that is, retail sales and
service uses that function to serve the entire community and its visitors.
F. Commercial Industrial (CI).
This district is designed to provide a location for outlets offering goods and services to a limited
segment of the general public. The uses included primarily serve other commercial and industrial
enterprises.
G. Business Park (BP).
This district is designed for uses that primarily serve other commercial and industrial enterprises, and
include administrative and professional offices, commercial industrial, research and development
oriented light industrial, light manufacturing, and non-polluting industries. Uses in this district need
good access to arterial level thoroughfares, but have relatively low traffic generation and require limited
location identification.
The development of business parks should be in a campus like setting with structures grouped and
clustered, and should be heavily landscaped to minimize the impacts of business park uses and
associated parking areas on adjacent properties and public roadways. Impacts of the uses will be
limited through buffering and architecture of the buildings.
The following supplemental standards shall apply to this district:
1. All processes and business activities shall be conducted inside buildings with the exception of
Commercial Gardens; and
2. All BP zoning districts will be a minimum of five (5) acres in area.
H. Business Park Industrial (BPI).
This district is designed to provide land for manufacturing and industrial activities that have nuisance
characteristics greater than activities permitted in the BP Business Park district. Permitted uses within
this district are generally not compatible with residential uses of any density or lower intensity
commercial uses. Generally, these uses need good access to arterial roadways, but should be offset
from public roadways and adjacent properties by using the BP Business Park district and its ass ociated
development to screen and buffer the uses. The uses allowed have relatively low traffic generation
and require limited location identification.
I. College and University (CU).
This district is applied to land which is located within the boundaries of the Texas A&M University
campus or is owned by the University.

1. Zoning TIA.
Any zoning request, except for certain "redevelopment" areas, requests for R, WE, E, WRS,
GS, R-1B, D, or T zoning classifications which is expected to generate at least one hundred
fifty (150) vehicle trips during any peak hour period requires a TIA. Where the
Comprehensive Plan designates a property as "Redevelopment" a TIA is required if the
zoning request is expected to generate at least one hundred fifty (150) vehicle trips during
any peak hour period more than those generated by the currently approved use(s) on the
property. A zoning request involving multiple zoning districts is required to have a T IA based
on the total traffic generated for all the proposed districts. A TIA may be required for a zoning
request that generates less than one hundred fifty (150) trips in the peak hour, where the
Page 36
peaking characteristics could have a detrimental impact on the transportation system as
determined by the Administrator.
A TIA shall be required unless the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the
Administrator that a TIA is not necessary for the proposed rezoning request. In cases where
a TIA is required, the rezoning application will be considered incomplete until the TIA is
submitted.

these areas. This district may also serve as a reserved area in which the future growth of
the City can occur.
B. Wellborn Estate (WE).
This district includes land that, due to public service limitations or a prevailing rural
character, should have limited development activities. These areas tend to consist of low-
density single-family residential lots of two acres or more but may be one acre if clustered
around undeveloped open space. This zoning district is only permitted in areas designated
as Wellborn Estate or Wellborn Estate-Open on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land
Use and Character Map. The cluster option may be used only in the area designated
Wellborn Estate-Open on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use and Character Map.

through the use of plazas, outdoor dining, and bicycle parking.
(P) Reference Section 12-8.3.H.4.e when using the cluster option in the Wellborn

“Sec. 12-5.3. - Non-Residential Zoning Districts.
A. Natural Areas Protected (NAP).
This district is designed for publicly-owned property or private property intended for the
conservation of natural areas. Properties with this designation are relatively undeveloped and
are often used for recreational or open space purposes or for the conveyance of floodwaters.
Properties with this designation are not projected for conversion to more intense land use in
the future by the Comprehensive Plan.
B. Office (O).
This district will accommodate selected commercial businesses that provide a service rather
than sell products, either retail or wholesale. The uses allowed have relatively low traffic
generation and require limited location identification.
C. Suburban Commercial (SC).
This district is intended to provide for low-density commercial uses that provide services to
nearby neighborhoods. The SC Suburban Commercial District is intended to be compatible
with the character of suburban single-family neighborhoods. Buildings have a residential
character and scale, and sites are heavily landscaped to minimize the impacts of non-
residential uses and associated parking areas on adjacent residential zoning districts. The
district allows for a range of uses, with the impacts mitigated through buffering and
architecture of the buildings.
D. Wellborn Commercial (WC).
This district is intended to provide for low-density commercial uses that provide services to
nearby neighborhoods. Such uses shall be limited in size and not accommodate for drive-thru
services. Specific design elements should be incorporated into such developments to limit the
visual impact on the community and enhance the defined character. This zoning district is
only permitted in areas designated as Wellborn Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Land
Use and Character Map.
E. General Commercial (GC).
Ordinance No. ____ Page 15 of 59
This district is designed to provide locations for general commercial purposes, that is, retail
sales and service uses that function to serve the entire community and its visitors.
F. Commercial Industrial (CI).
This district is designed to provide a location for outlets offering goods and services to a
limited segment of the general public. The uses included primarily serve other commercial
and industrial enterprises.
G. Business Park (BP).
This district is designed for uses that primarily serve other commercial and industrial
enterprises, and include administrative and professional offices, commercial industrial,
research and development oriented light industrial, light manufacturing, and non-polluting
industries. Uses in this district need good access to arterial level thoroughfares, but have
relatively low traffic generation and require limited location identification.
The development of business parks should be in a campus like setting with structures grouped
and clustered, and should be heavily landscaped to minimize the impacts of business park uses
and associated parking areas on adjacent properties and public roadways. Impacts of the uses
will be limited through buffering and architecture of the buildings.
The following supplemental standards shall apply to this district:
1. All processes and business activities shall be conducted inside buildings with the
exception of Commercial Gardens; and
2. All BP zoning districts will be a minimum of five (5) acres in area.
H. Business Park Industrial (BPI).
This district is designed to provide land for manufacturing and industrial activities that have
nuisance characteristics greater than activities permitted in the BP Business Park district.
Permitted uses within this district are generally not compatible with residential uses of any
density or lower intensity commercial uses. Generally, these uses need good access to arterial
roadways, but should be offset from public roadways and adjacent properties by using the BP
Business Park district and its associated development to screen and buffer the uses. The uses
allowed have relatively low traffic generation and require limited location identification.
I. College and University (CU).
This district is applied to land which is located within the boundaries of the Texas A&M
University campus or is owned by the University.”
“Sec. 12-5.4. - Non-Residential Dimensional Standards.

In computing the number of parking spaces required, the following rules shall govern:
1. Parking requirements based on square footage shall be based upon the gross floor area,
unless otherwise stated. Service areas such as mechanical rooms, restrooms, and closets
shall be included in the calculation of "gross floor area" for determining required parking
spaces;
2. Where fractional spaces result in computing required parking spaces, the required number
of spaces must be increased to the nearest whole number;
3. The parking space requirements for a use not specifically listed shall be the same as those
for the most similar to the proposed use, as determined by the Administrator;
4. Whenever a building or use constructed or established after the effective date of this UDO
is changed or enlarged in floor area, number of employees, number of dwelling units,
seating capacity, or otherwise, parking requirements shall be met on the basis of the
enlargement or change. Whenever a building or use existing prior to the effective date of
this UDO is enlarged, the enlarged building or increased use shall then and thereafter
comply with the parking requirements set forth herein;
5. Where requirements are established on the basis of the number of seats, such requirements
shall be based on the seating capacity as determined by the Building Official;
6. Where a manufacturing/industrial use has more than one (1) working shift of employees,
parking shall be provided to accommodate overlap requirements during transition
periods;
7. When the developer of a large-scale development can demonstrate that such development
will require fewer parking spaces than required by the standards of this Section, the
Administrator may permit a reduction in the number of required parking spaces for the
development. Such a reduction in parking spaces shall be justified through the
development of a parking study prepared by a professional engineer or transportation
planner and submitted to the Administrator. The balance of the land necessary to meet
Ordinance No. ____ Page 36 of 59
these requirements shall be held in reserve as an undeveloped area, to meet any future
needs generated by an expansion of the business, a change in land use, or underestimated
parking demand;
8. The Design Review Board may waive parking space requirements in the Northgate and
Wolf Pen Creek districts if the development meets the goals of the master plan for the
respective district.

“Sec. 12-7.13.C.1 - Zoning TIA.
Any zoning request, except for certain "redevelopment" areas, requests for R, WE,
E, WRS, GS, R-1B, D, or T zoning classifications which is expected to generate at
least one hundred fifty (150) vehicle trips during any peak hour period requires a
TIA. Where the Comprehensive Plan designates a property as "Redevelopment" a
TIA is required if the zoning request is expected to generate at least one hundred fifty
(150) vehicle trips during any peak hour period more than those generated by the
currently approved use(s) on the property. A zoning request involving multiple
zoning districts is required to have a TIA based on the total traffic generated for all
the proposed districts. A TIA may be required for a zoning request that generates less
than one hundred fifty (150) trips in the peak hour, where the peaking characteristics
could have a detrimental impact on the transportation system as determined by the
Administrator.
A TIA shall be required unless the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the
Administrator that a TIA is not necessary for the proposed rezoning request. In cases
where a TIA is required, the rezoning application will be considered incomplete until
the TIA is submitted.”
