Items 2d and 2e were pulled from Consent for clarification.

This will finish out the park development.
(2e): Donald Harmon, Director of Public Works, clarified the need for the right-of-way for the
expansion and realignment of Royder Road.
5. Presentation, possible action, and discussion on a proposal for a historical, cultural and
educational display in Northgate.
Jay Socol, Director of Public Communications, reported that there is a proposal to establish a
cultural marker in Northgate. Rob Clark, with The Eagle, noted that the marker would
commemorate “this old porch” immortalized in song by Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen. Mr.
Socol further explained that, in concept, Keen and Lovett could be depicted sitting, singing and
playing guitar - similar to how the men posed for a Texas Monthly cover photo - but with a chair
in between them to create an interactive element that would be perfect for visitors taking and
sharing photos. The idea to create a cultural, historical and educational display at Northgate has
received verbal and written support from the Northgate District Association and from additional
Northgate merchants. In addition to recognizing part of College Station’s history, there appears to
be a unique opportunity to create an iconic "destination within a destination" that would attract
and educate Aggies and visitors of all ages and generate a positive economic impact to our
Northgate merchants.
Texas A&M University System Chancellor John Sharp has generously pledged to fund half of the
concept, should it become a reality. The balance would be sought through private fund raising
efforts.
Council consensus was to go forward.
6. Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding the requirements for bicycle racks.
Lance Simms, Director of Planning and Development, provided an overview of the requirements
for bicycle racks in College station. He noted that for Texas cities over 50,000 population, College
WKSHP030917 Minutes Page 3
Station ranks #1 in people biking to work. The UDO currently requires bike racks if the building
is subject to non-residential architectural standards. There are certain zoning districts exempted:
Business Park Industrial, Light Industrial, Heavy Industrial, and Research & Development.
Northgate is excepted with different standards. Exempted uses include churches, educational
facilities, municipal industrial facilities, and private utility buildings.
The current UDO requires that each site provide parking for a base minimum of four bikes (more
for more intense uses); bike racks should be located within 150 feet of the primary entrance; and
bike racks are permitted on sidewalks or other paved surface provided they do not impede
pedestrian or vehicle movement.
Staff was asked to come back with recommendations.

Presentation,possible action,and discussion to approve a resolution by the City Council of the City of
College Station,Texas,directing publication of notice of intention to issue certificates of obligation,series
2017; and providing an effective date.
Recommendation(s):Staff recommends Council approve the attached resolution directing
publication of notice of the intention to issue certificates of obligation.
Summary:The City Council is authorized to approve the issuance of certificates of obligation
(COs) after approving a resolution directing notices to be published of the intent to issue the COs.
The City of College Station typically issues debt to fund various capital projects identified and approved as
a part of the annual budget.
Certificates of Obligation (COs)are based on the full faith and credit of the City and are paid primarily
through the debt service portion of the ad valorem tax rate.Certificates of Obligation normally include at
least one additional revenue stream besides the debt service portion of the tax rate such as utility
revenues.The City's policy for issuing Certificates of Obligation allows more flexibility in their issue than
General Obligation Bonds,which are authorized by the voters,particularly when other revenues are
anticipated to assist in debt service.
The City’s Financial Advisor recommended that the City issue Certificate of Obligations for utility projects
instead of Utility Revenue Bonds (URBs).The Utility systems will cover their associated portion of debt
service through utility revenues.
The Certificates issued will be used to fund street,public facilities,water and wastewater projects,and
pay debt issuance costs.The maximum amount of Certificates of Obligation indebtedness that may be
authorized to be sold is $70,000,000.
At the May 11th meeting,the City Council will consider approval of the sale parameters for the General
Obligation and Refunding Bonds,appoint a Paying Agent/Registrar,appoint Underwriters,adopt Bond
Ordinances and authorized the preparation of the Official Statements for the General Obligation and

Ordinances and authorized the preparation of the Official Statements for the General Obligation and
Refunding Bonds and the Certificates of Obligations.If the ordinances are approved,the City Council will
be delegating to the City Manager the authority to execute the bond sale and refunding.
Budget &Financial Summary:Staff reviewed the impact of the Certificates on the City's ability to
meet debt service requirements and the effect they may have on the ad valorem tax rate.The impact
on the utility rates will be reviewed as part of the financial forecast and FY18 budget.Debt for the
construction of the Police Station will require a tax increase in FY 18.The recommendation to move
forward with this issue.

Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure

Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.
Summary:To improve safety and mobility for people driving,people walking,and people riding bicycles near Creek View
Elementary School,an all-way stop is warranted at the intersection of Eagle Avenue and Alexandria Avenue.This change
would have limited impact on mobility for people driving along Eagle Avenue while improving mobility for people walking
across Eagle Avenue or people driving on Alexandria Avenue.
Parents at Creek View Elementary School requested that College Station Traffic Engineering consider the need for an all-
way stop at this intersection.Based upon traffic data collected by Traffic Engineering,current automobile delay for
Alexandria Avenue in the worse condition is 21 seconds per vehicle for people heading northbound on Alexandria Avenue
(this happens between 7 am and 8 am).With an all-way stop intersection,the average delay on all approaches will be 10
to 12 seconds per vehicle during the AM Peak.Additionally,Alexandria Avenue has more vehicles in the AM peak than
Eagle Avenue. And, throughout the day, the number of vehicles tends to be similar.

Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.
Summary:To improve safety and mobility for people driving,people walking,and people riding bicycles near Cypress
Grove Intermediate School,an all-way stop is warranted at the intersection of Graham Road and Alexandria
Avenue/Schaffer Road.
Citizens’requested that College Station Traffic Engineering consider the need for an all-way stop at this intersection.
Based upon traffic data collected by Traffic Engineering,current automobile delay for Alexandria Avenue in the worse
condition is 50.7 seconds per vehicle with a two-way stop with the northbound approach experiencing more than 3 minutes
of delay per vehicle (this happens between 7 am and 8 am).With an all-way stop intersection,the average delay for the
intersection becomes 23 seconds per vehicle in the morning peak.In the afternoon,the average delay at the intersection
becomes 16 seconds per vehicle.This intersection has had 3 crashes in the past 1 year that are correctable through the
use of an all-way stop.Based upon the 2016 data,this intersection meets the 1 hour volume warrant for considering the
installation of a traffic signal. At this time, traffic engineering recommends the installation of an all-way stop.

removing parking along Luther Street West between FM 2818 and Marion Pugh Drive.
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 remove parking along Luther Street West between Harvey Mitchell Parkway
and Marion Pugh Drive. During larger events, such as Texas A&M University home football games, people are parking in
the grass along Luther Street West in order to avoid paying for parking on West Campus. This parking behavior damages
the pavement edges of the roadway, creates ruts in drainage ways, and makes two-way traffic flow along this street difficult
(if not impossible). Additionally, with the ongoing construction of the Park West Development, safe and orderly traffic flow
along Luther Street West will become even more important.
Given these observations, to improve safety, mobility, and emergency vehicle access along these streets, the City of
College Station Traffic Management Team recommends approving this ordinance.
Given that property owners, residents, and people visiting residents are not using this street for parking, Traffic Engineering
did not hold a public meeting for this parking removal.
Budget & Financial Summary: The “NO PARKING” signs are planned operation and maintenance expenses accounted for

Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
·Improving Mobility
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.
Summary: This ordinance removes parking along Gilchrist Avenue within 50 feet of Williams Street. The purpose of this
ordinance is to provide space for CSISD buses to access Williams Street.
The College View Elementary School Principle and other CSISD staff requested this parking removal. Under existing
conditions, CSISD buses are having trouble accessing Williams Street because of parents stopping their vehicles too close
to Williams Street. Parents are parking in this area in order to avoid the parent pick-up and drop-off line.
Traffic Engineering evaluated the situation and brought this issue to the Traffic Management Team. To improve safety,
mobility, and emergency vehicle access along these streets, the City of College Station Traffic Management Team
recommends approving this ordinance.
Given the limited distance of this parking removal, Traffic Engineering did not hold a public meeting.

Road and Harvey Mitchell Parkway interchange.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
·Improving Mobility
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.
Summary:This ordinance prohibits U-Turns at the interchange where Wellborn Road (FM 2154)intersects with Harvey
Mitchell Parkway (FM 2818).This ordinance prohibits U-Turns at the traffic signal north of Harvey Mitchell Parkway for
vehicles traveling northbound and vehicles travelling southbound on Wellborn Road.This ordinance also prohibits U-Turns
at the traffic signal south of Harvey Mitchell Parkway for vehicles traveling northbound on Wellborn Road.
College Station PD requested that College Station Traffic Engineering evaluate a need for u-turn prohibitions at this
interchange.
Traffic Engineering found that a prohibition is needed for people driving northbound because there are no dedicated turn
bays at these signals and vehicles trying to make u-turns are stopping in the through lane in order to find gaps in traffic.
This u-turn movement has contributed 4 crashes in the past 3 years.
Traffic Engineering found that a prohibition is needed for the southbound movement at the northern intersection because
the intersection does not have sufficient width for a single continuous movement.This results in people making three point
turns within the intersection,which decreases intersection capacity and increases the likelihood of a crash at the

Information Technology and Gateway improvement projects that were included in the FY17 Capital
Improvements Program Budget.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
1.Financially Sustainable City
2.Core Services and Infrastructure
Recommendation:Staff recommends approval of the “Resolution Declaring Intention to Reimburse
Certain Expenditures with Proceeds from Debt.”
Summary:The FY17 Approved Budget included Information Technology projects as well as a second City
Gateway Signage project.These projects are anticipated to be funded with Certificates of Obligation that
have not yet been issued.On projects for which spending will occur in advance of the debt issue,a
“Resolution Declaring Intention to Reimburse Certain Expenditures with Proceeds from Debt”must be
approved by Council.Typically,the resolution is brought to Council along with the initial contract for the
project (i.e.the engineering contract).However,in some cases,the contract may be below the threshold
required for Council approval and/or spending may take place before the contract is brought to Council
(i.e.staff time charged to the project for initial planning).This “Resolution Declaring Intention to
Reimburse Certain Expenditures with Proceeds from Debt”is being brought to Council to cover
expenditures for projects on which spending is estimated to occur in advance of the debt issue.
Budget & Financial Summary:The “Resolution Declaring Intention to Reimburse Certain Expenditures
with Proceeds from Debt” is necessary for this item because the long term debt has not been issued for
the projects. The debt that this resolution is intended to cover is estimated to be issued in FY17 and in
FY18.

Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas by changing the zoning district boundaries from R
Rural to MF Multi-Family and NAP Natural Areas Protected for approximately 16.485 acres, generally
located west of the intersection of State Highway 30 and Linda Lane.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Good Governance
·Financially Sustainable City
·Diverse Growing Economy
Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission will consider this item at their meeting on
March 16th. Their recommendation will be presented at the City Council meeting. Staff recommends
approval.
Summary:
The applicant is requesting a zoning change from R Rural to MF Multi-Family and NAP Natural Areas
Protected. This an initial step toward developing a multi-family residential development.
REVIEW CRITERIA
1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject property is designated Urban
and Natural Areas Protected on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map.
The Urban land use designation is identified in areas designated for areas that should have a very
College Station, TX Printed on 3/17/2017Page 1 of 3
powered by Legistar™
File #:17-0122,Version:1
intense level of development activity. Land uses associated with this type of designation are
reserved for townhomes, duplexes and high density apartments. Much of the area surrounding
this tract is either flood way or floodplain as identified by FEMA, and is within the Natural Planning
Corridor VIII, Carter Creek Corridor in the Comprehensive Plan Concept Map. The Natural Areas
Protected designation is given in these areas to preserve the natural function of the water way
and to limit development from encroaching into flood hazard areas. The proposed development is
consistent with the future land use designations identified for this area.
2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood: The property is currently zoned R Rural. This zoning
was given to this property as a land use placeholder upon annexation into the city pending further
development complying with the Comprehensive Plan. The existing R Rural zoning allows for
large lot residential and/or agricultural uses. While much of the land surrounding this property is
located in the ETJ not guided by zoning regulation, the land use pattern is mostly large lot
residential which is compatible with a Rural zoning. However, a Rural zoning does not support a
more intense development pattern that is anticipated for the land directly along State Highway 30.
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 MF Multi-Family and NAP Natural Areas
Protected. The Multi-Family zoning designation outside of the floodplain is suitable on this tract
considering its access along State Highway 30 and the increase in more intense development
activity along this corridor. The NAP will serve as buffer to the existing residential homes to the
south, but more importantly will provide protection to the creek and surrounding land, preserving
its natural function and aesthetic that is currently not being protected under the entitled Rural
zoning. As mentioned this area is also seeing several changing conditions that warrant the
suitability of this property changing land uses. With a continued rise in development in and around
the Copperfield and Summit Crossing area and commercial development interest on adjacent
tracts, a Multi-Family and NAP use is an appropriate request for this tract.
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 given the similar zonings and uses
of nearby property in and out of the city limits. However, conditions in the area along this corridor
are changing with increased development interest near Copperfield Parkway and Summit
Crossing. Additionally, the adjacent tract to the west was also recently rezoned for General
Commercial thus increasing potential for more intense development along Highway 30 and
reducing the suitability of a rural land use along this corridor.
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 rural designation is not appropriate or feasible for this property knowing the changing
development pattern along the Highway 30 corridor. With continued growth along Copperfield
Parkway and the expansion of the Summit Crossing development the need for rural or agricultural
land is reducing when compared to the demand to have sites available for higher density
residential and non-residential developments.
6.Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
College Station, TX Printed on 3/17/2017Page 2 of 3
powered by Legistar™
File #:17-0122,Version:1
suitable and adequate for the proposed use: There is an existing 12” water line located along
the opposite side of Harvey road from the subject property. The tract has an 18” wastewater line
available to serve the property that runs along the rear of the tract. The Developer’s engineer has
provided a sealed sewer demand letter that proposes to not exceed the current capacity allocated
for this line.
Southern and western portions of subject property lay within the FEMA 100 fear floodplain of
Harvey Hillside Creek. Detention is required with site development. Drainage and any other
infrastructure required with the site development shall be designed and constructed in accordance
with the BCS Unified Design Guidelines.
The Thoroughfare Plan identifies Harvey Road (State Highway 30) as a future 4-lane Major
Arterial. Harvey Road is currently constructed as a 2-lane rural highway with shoulders on each
side. The subject tract has about 1,500 feet of frontage on Harvey Road and is not adjacent to an
existing or planned intersection. Multiple driveways are anticipated and their location and potential
need for right-turn deceleration lanes will be determined with a TxDOT driveway permit at the time
of site development.
A traffic impact analysis (TIA) was submitted and indicated that turning movements from three
proposed site driveways would operate at a Level of Service (LOS) F having an average delay of
about 60 seconds with the 95th percentile vehicle queue forecasted to be less than one vehicle.
This indicates that despite the delay, there are adequate gaps in traffic on Harvey Road for exiting
vehicles. As the LOS F is from private driveways not affecting the function of a public street, no
traffic mitigation is required.
