Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an ordinance amending Chapter 12, “Unified Development Ordinance,” Section 12-4.2, “Official Zoning Map,” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, by changing the zoning district boundaries from PDD Planned Development District to PDD Planned Development District to amend the concept plan and related text for approximately 8 acres in the Chimney Hill Retail Plaza, generally located at 701 & 715 University Drive East. Madison Thomas, Planning and Development, stated that this Planned Development District (PDD) request amends the existing PDD to realign it with the current vision for the site. This property was previously owned by the City of College Station and was sold in 2014 in conjunction with an adopted economic development agreement that provided an additional level of regulation with the PDD. The City Council recently approved an agreement to terminate the economic development agreement. Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request with the condition that sidewalks be added to the concept plan along Tarrow Street, as identified on the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Greenways Master Plan. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their July 20 meeting and voted unanimously to recommend approval. Crissy Hartl, Mitchell and Morgan, representing the applicant, addressed the recommendation by staff to construct sidewalks along Tarrow. They will be providing a sidewalk along East Tarrow and along the interior drive from University Drive to the roundabout. The applicant is requesting a modification to the requirement to provide a sidewalk from University Drive around the property to connect to join the proposed sidewalk on East Tarrow, which would require 1,500’ of a 6-8’ sidewalk and hinder future development. The development would be required by Texas accessibility standards to provide pedestrian access, as well as providing interior walkways throughout the site. At approximately 8:52 p.m., Mayor Mooney opened the Public Hearing. Richard West, College Station, business owner located on Tarrow, stated his concerns with what can be placed there if the PDD Planned Development District is amended as staff has recommended. There being no comments, the Public Hearing was closed at 8:56 p.m. MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilmember Benham and a second by Councilmember Rektorik, the City Council voted seven (7) for and none (0) opposed, to adopt Ordinance 2017- RM081017 Minutes Page 5 3917, amending Chapter 12, “Unified Development Ordinance,” Section 12-4.2, “Official Zoning Map,” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, by changing the zoning district boundaries from PDD Planned Development District to PDD Planned Development District to amend the concept plan and related text for approximately 8 acres in the Chimney Hill Retail Plaza, generally located at 701 & 715 University Drive East , with the condition that Sidewalks be added to the Concept Plan along Tarrow. The motion carried unanimously. 2. Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding approval of modifications to Article III of the Bylaws of the Research Valley Partnership, Inc. (RVP).

Relationship to Strategic Goals: ·Core Services and Infrastructure ·Improving Mobility Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment. Summary:The existing intersection of Thomas Street and Dexter Drive has Stop signs on the Thomas Street approaches to the intersection (i.e.,westbound and eastbound).A concern with appropriate sight line at this intersection was brought to Traffic Engineering’s attention by a citizen who resides in the neighborhood.Traffic Engineering performed the line of sight criteria identified in the “Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets”,finding the sight distance for vehicles setting at the existing Stop sign on the westbound Thomas Street approach inadequate to see vehicles approaching the intersection from the left (i.e.,traveling northbound on Dexter Drive).Due to the inadequate sight line for vehicles on the westbound Thomas Street approach to see vehicles traveling northbound on Dexter Drive,Traffic Engineering recommends to add Stop signs to the north-and southbound approaches to the intersection,making it an All-Way Stop controlled intersection. Budget &Financial Summary:The “Stop”signs are planned operation and maintenance expenses accounted for in the Public Works Traffic Operation budget. Attachments: 1.Ordinance 2.

Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding approval of modifications to Article III of the Bylaws of the Research Valley Partnership, Inc. (RVP). Relationship to Strategic Goals: ·Good Governance ·Diverse Growing Economy Recommendation(s): The Research Valley Partnership recommends approval of the bylaw changes to Article III. Summary: The RVP established a subcommittee to modify the current bylaws to more closely reflect the funding levels for the corporation. Directors may be appointed to the Board by those organizations, governments, educational institutions or business entities wishing to participate in the mission of the Corporation and which fit into one of three categories. There is also a provision that allows Texas A&M University to join the RVP as a full funding partner. Currently, full funding partners including the cities of Bryan, College Station and Brazos County invest approximately $350,000 each per year. The RVP voted to amend its bylaws on June 21, 2017. According to the bylaws, the City of College Station, City of Bryan, and Brazos County (and any other Oversight Entity) must approve any changes to Article III of the bylaws (concerning the appointment and qualifications of directors) in order for the changes to that Article to be effective. RVP Managing Director Sylvia McMullen presented the bylaw changes at the August 10, 2017 City Council meeting. The Council requested that Mrs. McMullen clarify language pertaining to Category I constituents. This category includes the major funding partners - City of College Station, City of Bryan, Brazos County and the Texas A&M University System. It requires a minimum contribution of $350,000 annually to fund the RVP. Language was added to make it clear that, "constituents in College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0463,Version:1 Category I will be required to contribute equal funding with equal representation". Budget & Financial Summary: College Station's annual contribution of $350,000 will remain the same for 2017-2018 budget year. The current funding level of $350,000 will be required annually for all Category I Constituents. These Constituents include the cities of Bryan, College Station and Brazos County as well as Texas A&M University should they choose to become a full funding partner.

Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an ordinance amending the Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use & Character Map from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial for approximately 1.3 acres being situated in the Plantation Oaks Addition, Block 1, Lot 1 located north of University Oaks Blvd. and west of Earl Rudder Freeway South. Relationship to Strategic Goals: ·Good Governance ·Core Services and Infrastructure ·Diverse Growing Economy Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission heard this item at their August 3rd meeting and a motion to recommend approval failed by a vote of 0-7. Summary::The applicant has requested an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use and Character Map from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial in order to request a rezoning to GC General Commercial. REVIEW CRITERIA 1.Changed or changing conditions in the subject area or the City:The subject property was rezoned to O Office in 2013, which is consistent with the Suburban Commercial land use on the Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use and Character Map, and has remained undeveloped. College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0456,Version:1 The surrounding properties to the north and west are designated as General Suburban and were developed as single-family residential through the 1970s. The properties to the south are designated as Urban Mix Use and are in a Redevelopment Area. These land use designation were given to the property due to the age of the existing multi-family development and zoning districts, GC General Commercial and R-6 High Density Multi-Family, currently on the property. TXDOT made changes to the ramps to Earl Rudder Freeway in 2015. An exit ramp located across the subject property was reversed, creating an on ramp that begins before the subject lot. In 2016, the property to the south, on the corner of University Oaks Blvd. and frontage road was developed as an office building. 2.Scope of the request:The request is to amend the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map designation for approximately 1.3 acres from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial. If approved by City Council, the applicant intends to pursue a rezoning of the property from O Office to GC General Commercial. A request for rezoning was submitted for consideration and will be heard following this item. 3.Availability of adequate information:General Commercial land use designation allows for the future development of commercial activities, including retail sale and service uses, which serve the nearby residents and larger community or region. Properties in this area are served by College Station Utilities (CSU). Domestic water and sanitary sewer service is serving the site. Additional infrastructure improvements may be needed with site improvement. The area of the subject site proposed as General Commercial was not enough warrant a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA). 4.Consistency with the goals and strategies set forth in the Plan:The goal for College Station’s Future Land Use and Character is to create a community with strong, unique neighborhoods, protected rural areas, special districts, distinct corridors, and a protected and enhanced natural environment. A relevant strategy identified to achieve this goal is to establish and protect distinct boundaries between various character areas. Although the property is near property designated as Urban Mixed Use, it also abuts properties designated and developed for single-family use. Given the limited width of the subject lot, approximately 140 feet at its widest point, there are concerns of the impacts General Commercial land uses on the abutting residential properties. The current designation of Suburban Commercial is suitable for commercial uses that serve the nearby community and are compatible with residential uses. These areas are intended to be smaller in size and compatible with surrounding single-family residential uses. The subject property’s current land use designation continues to be appropriate due to the limited width of the site and its close proximity and potential impact to the established single-family neighborhood. The proposed land use designation, General Commercial, is generally for concentrations of commercial activities that cater to both nearby residents and to the larger community or region. Generally, these areas tend to be large in size and located near the intersection of two regionally significant roads (arterials and freeways). It is preferred that in such areas development be concentrated in nodes rather than spread out in strips. Although the property has direct access to a freeway, the property is small in size and opportunities for consolidation land is not possible at this location due to the surrounding properties being developed as single-family. College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0456,Version:1 5.Consideration of the Future Land Use & Character and/or Thoroughfare Plans:The current land use of Suburban Commercial is intended for concentrations of commercial activities that cater primarily to nearby residents versus the larger community or region. Generally, these areas tend to be small in size and located adjacent to major roads (arterials and collectors). The design of Suburban Commercial structures are compatible in size, roof type and pitch, architecture, and lot coverage with the surrounding single-family residential uses. The proposed land use of General Commercial is intended for concentrations of commercial activities that cater both to nearby residents and to the larger community or region. Generally, these areas tend to be large in size and located near the intersection of two regionally significant roads (arterials and freeways). Earl Rudder Freeway is designated as a Freeway/Expressway and University Oaks Blvd. is designated as a Major Collector on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan. The frontage along University Oaks Boulevard would not allow for a driveway on this thoroughfare. Although the property’s location and direct access to the frontage road support General Commercial land use other variables, such as compatibility with single-family residential, do not support this land use. 6.Compatibility with the surrounding area:The proposed amendment to General Commercial would allow for the property to be zoned for commercial uses that serve the general community and region. Properties to the north and west are currently zoned GS General Suburban. Amending the Comprehensive Plan to General Commercial in this area would not compatible with the existing zoning and development directly adjacent to the property. The current land use designation, Suburban Commercial, is intended for smaller scale community or neighborhood services that is compatible in size and lot coverage with the surrounding near medium to low density single-family residential. 7.Impacts on infrastructure including water, wastewater, drainage, and the transportation network: Water service is currently provided by College Station Utilities. There is an existing 12-inch waterline along Earl Rudder Freeway. Sewer service is available via existing 8-inch sewer main across University Oaks Blvd. Additionally, the property is in the Carter’s Creek drainage basin. The site generally drains south. Drainage and other public infrastructure required with site development shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the B/CS Unified Design Guidelines. 8.Impact on the City’s ability to provide, fund, and maintain services:The proposed amendment for the subject property does not negatively impact the City’s ability to provide, fund, and maintain services. 9.Impact on environmentally sensitive and natural areas:The proposed amendment for the subject property does not negatively impact environmentally sensitive and natural areas or does not prevent the preservation of such areas. 10.Contribution to the overall direction and character of the community as captured in the Plan’s vision and goals:The goal for College Station’s Future Land Use and Character is College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 3 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0456,Version:1 to create a community with strong, unique neighborhoods, protected rural areas, special districts, distinct corridors, and a protected and enhanced natural environment. The proposed amendment from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial on approximately 1.3 acres impedes on this goal by proposing an incompatible, intense land use adjacent to single-family residential properties. The subject lot has limited site width for it to adequately protect the single-family homes from undesirable elements associated with intense use while providing adequate improvements for general commercial land uses.

Relationship to Strategic Goals: ·Good Governance ·Core Services and Infrastructure ·Diverse Growing Economy Recommendation(s): The Planning & Zoning Commission heard this item at their August 3rd, 2017 meeting and voted unanimously to recommend approval of the request. Summary: This request is to amend the zoning district boundaries on the property to rezone approximately 1.3 acres from O Office to GC General Commercial. This request is in conjunction with a request to amend the Comprehensive Plan from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial as the future land use. REVIEW CRITERIA 1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject property is designated as College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0457,Version:1 Suburban Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map. The Suburban Commercial designation is intended for commercial activities that cater primarily to nearby residents and are areas that tend to be small in size and located adjacent to major roadways. The design of structures in this land use are intended to be compatible in size, roof type and pitch, architecture, and lot coverage with the surrounding single-family residential uses. As a part of the zoning request the applicant is also requesting an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to change the future land use of the property designation to General Commercial. Should the land use amendment be approved the applicant’s request to rezone the property to GC General Commercial would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Should the request to amend the Comprehensive Plan be denied, the rezoning is no longer consistent with the future land use designation. It should be noted, that staff is recommending denial of the Comprehensive Plan amendment to the property. The property’s current zoning of O Office is an appropriate district to implement both land use scenarios of Suburban Commercial and General Commercial. 2.Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood: The property is currently zoned O Office, which accommodates selected commercial business that provide a service rather than sell products, either retail or wholesale. The property is currently vacant and undeveloped. Properties to the west are zoned GS General Suburban and developed as single-family residential. The property to the south, across University Oaks Blvd., is zoned GC General Commercial but developed as high density multi-family. Although the proposed zoning district, GC General Commercial, is compatible with the property across the thoroughfare and is typically appropriate along a highway, the size and configuration of the property makes GC General Commercial incompatible with the immediately adjacent single-family residential zoning district. A comparison of uses allowed in GC General Commercial versus O Office is attached to this report. 3.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the districts that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: Although the proposed rezoning to GC General Commercial is appropriate for this area due to its location on Earl Rudder Freeway, Freeway/Expressway, the site is not appropriate for this zoning district given limited site width, which places the potential impacts of incompatible uses permitted in General Commercial in close proximity with the adjacent residential neighborhoods. 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: Due to the subject property’s location and visibility along Earl Rudder Freeway it would traditionally be appropriate to have more regionally serving general commercial uses but the intensity of the commercial development should be considered given the unique limited width of the property and proximity to single-family residential. With the lot being adjacent to the Plantation Oaks and Carter’s Grove residential subdivision, it would be appropriate to have uses that were more in line with Suburban Commercial. The current zoning district, O Office, would allow for service type uses that would serve the general community and nearby residents. The current zoning district also provides development College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0457,Version:1 restrictions such as 10-foot landscaped buffer with a fence and building height limitations to aid in protecting the existing homes that are located within the residential neighborhoods. Additionally, O Office and GC General Commercial are subject to the same Non-Residential Architectural (NRA) Standards which allow for architectural design that is consistent in commercial development. 5.Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The current zoning district, O Office, on the property is currently marketable for commercial and office uses that provide services to the general community. 6.Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally suitable and adequate for the proposed use: Water service is currently provided by College Station Utilities. There is an existing 12-inch waterline along Earl Rudder Freeway. Sewer service is available via existing 8-inch sewer main across University Oaks Blvd. Additionally, the property is in the Carter’s Creek drainage basin. Site is generally draining south. Drainage and other public infrastructure required with site development shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the B/CS Unified Design Guidelines. The subject tract will take access from Earl Rudder Freeway, pending TxDOT approval. Due to the size of the tract, a new Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was not warranted.

Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an ordinance amending the Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use & Character Map from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial for approximately 1.7 acres generally located at 12055 FM 2154. Relationship to Strategic Goals: ·Good Governance ·Financially Sustainable City ·Core Services and Infrastructure ·Diverse Growing Economy Recommendation(s): The Planning & Zoning Commission heard this request at their August 3rd, 2017 meeting and voted unanimously to recommend approval of the request. Summary: The applicant has requested an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use and Character Map from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial in an effort to reflect the current land use of the property and in response to the recent zoning amendments on neighboring properties. The property and surrounding area are in Growth Area V and were designated as Suburban Commercial with the adoption of the current Comprehensive Plan. REVIEW CRITERIA 1.Changed or changing conditions in the subject area or the City:In 2016, City Council approved a rezoning on approximately 44 acres of the adjacent tract to GC General Commercial and approximately 21 acres be rezoned to MF Multi-Family. With the development of the adjacent property, Jones Crossing, Balcones Drive (2 lane Minor Collector) that will be constructed and College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0458,Version:1 connect to FM 2154 (Wellborn Road). The subject tract will have access to the future right-of-way from the western boundary. The subject tract and surrounding properties were identified in the Central College Station Neighborhood Plan adopted in 2010. The neighborhood plan states that the extension of Balcones Drive to Wellborn Road would allow opportunities for multi-family, urban style development. Although the request is not for a land use that would allow for multi-family, it would allow for more intense land uses, similar to the type of development intended by the neighborhood plan with the extension of Balcones Drive. 2.Scope of the request:The request is to amend the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map designation for approximately 1.7 acres from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial. If approved by City Council, the applicant intends to pursue a rezoning of the property from R Rural to GC General Commercial. A request for rezoning was submitted for consideration and will be heard following this item. 3.Availability of adequate information:General Commercial land use designation allows for the future development of commercial activities, including retail sale and service uses, which serve the nearby residents and larger community or region. Properties in this area are served by College Station Utilities (CSU). Domestic water and sanitary sewer service is serving the site. Additional infrastructure improvements may be needed with platting or redevelopment. The area of the subject site proposed as General Commercial was not enough warrant a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA). 4.Consistency with the goals and strategies set forth in the Plan:The goal for College Station’s Future Land Use and Character is to create a community with strong, unique neighborhoods, protected rural areas, special districts, distinct corridors, and a protected and enhanced natural environment. A relevant strategy identified to achieve this goal is to develop and maintain, through regular review, a land use plan that identifies, establishes, and enhances community character. The City’s economic development goals are to provide a diversified economy generating quality, stable, full-time jobs; bolstering the sales and property tax base; and contributing to a high quality of life. A relevant strategy identified to achieve these goals is to promote and support new investments that serve regional market opportunities. With the development of the adjacent tract and the residential density within the vicinity, staff recognizes the value of having General Commercial on the Future Land Use and Character Map at this location. The Map is conceptual in nature and this amendment will allow for the subject property to be rezoned keeping in character with adjacent property to the west. The current designation of Suburban Commercial is suitable for commercial uses that serve the nearby community and are compatible with residential uses. Since surrounding properties are currently entitled for a broader range of uses than would be allowed with Suburban Commercial, an amendment to the Future Land Use and Character Map will be more in line with existing entitled uses and the regional opportunity provided by proximity to Harvey Mitchell Parkway and FM 2154 (Wellborn Road). 5.Consideration of the Future Land Use & Character and/or Thoroughfare Plans:The subject property is currently designated as Suburban Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0458,Version:1 Future Land Use and Character Map. The proposed amendment is to General Commercial. The current land use of Suburban Commercial is intended for concentrations of commercial activities that cater primarily to nearby residents versus the larger community or region. Generally, these areas tend to be small in size and located adjacent to major roads (arterials and collectors). The design of Suburban Commercial structures are intended to be compatible in size, roof type and pitch, architecture, and lot coverage with the surrounding single-family residential use. The proposed land use of General Commercial is intended for concentrations of commercial activities that cater both to nearby residents and to the larger community or region. Generally, these areas tend to be large in size and located near the intersection of two regionally significant roads (arterials and freeways). FM 2154 (Wellborn Road) and Harvey Mitchell Parkway are designated as a Major Arterial on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan. Given its location and close proximity to this major intersection a General Commercial land use designation would be appropriate. 6.Compatibility with the surrounding area:The proposed amendment is compatible with the surrounding area. Properties to the west, along FM 2154 are currently zoned GC General Commercial. To the northeast of this property are properties designated Suburban Commercial and zoned D Duplex and PDD Planned Development consisting of residential townhomes/condo and duplex developments. This density supports and is compatible with the proposed zoning district. 7.Impacts on infrastructure including water, wastewater, drainage, and the transportation network: Water service is currently provided by College Station Utilities. There is an existing 3-inch waterline along FM 2154. Sewer service is available via existing 18-inch sewer main to the west of the property. Additionally, the property is in the Bee Creek drainage basin and is generally drains to the Northeast. Drainage and other public infrastructure required with site redevelopment shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the B/CS Unified Design Guidelines. 8.Impact on the City’s ability to provide, fund, and maintain services:The proposed amendment for the subject property does not negatively impact the City’s ability to provide, fund, and maintain services. 9.Impact on environmentally sensitive and natural areas:The proposed amendment for the subject property does not negatively impact environmentally sensitive and natural areas or does not prevent the preservation of such areas. 10.Contribution to the overall direction and character of the community as captured in the Plan’s vision and goals:The goal for College Station’s Future Land Use and Character is to create a community with strong, unique neighborhoods, protected rural areas, special districts, distinct corridors, and a protected and enhanced natural environment. The proposed amendment from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial on approximately 1.7 acres is in line with the Comprehensive Plan.

Relationship to Strategic Goals: ·Good Governance ·Financially Sustainable City ·Core Services and Infrastructure ·Neighborhood Integrity ·Diverse Growing Economy ·Improving Mobility ·Sustainable City rd College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0459,Version:1 Recommendation(s): The Planning & Zoning Commission heard this request at their August 3rd, 2017 meeting and voted unanimously to recommend approval of the request. Summary: This request is amending the zoning district boundaries on the property to rezone approximately 1.7 acres from R Rural to GC General Commercial. This request is in conjunction with a request to amend the Comprehensive Plan from Suburban Commercial to General Commercial as a future land use. The property is currently developed as Koppe Bridge Bar & Grill. REVIEW CRITERIA 1.Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject property is designated as Suburban Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map. The Suburban Commercial designation is intended for commercial activities that cater primarily to nearby residents and are areas that tend to be small in size and located adjacent to major roadways. The design of structures in this land use are intended to be compatible in size, roof type and pitch, architecture, and lot coverage with the surrounding single-family residential uses. As a part of the zoning request the applicant is also requesting an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to change the future land use of the property designation to General Commercial. Should the land use amendment be approved the applicant’s request to rezone the property to GC General Commercial would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Should the request to amend the Comprehensive Plan be denied the rezoning request would no longer be consistent with the future land use designation and staff would not be supporting the request to rezone. It should be noted, that staff is recommending approval of the Comprehensive Plan amendment to the property. 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, which allows for agricultural type uses and large lot single-family. The current use of the property as Koppe Bridge Bar & Grill, built in 1992, is an existing nonconforming use to the current zoning district due to annexation of the property that occurred in 1995. The property to the north and east, adjacent to the subject tract, are also zoned R Rural and are generally vacant and undeveloped with the exception of the two tracts that are developed as single-family residential. The property to the west, across future Balcones Drive, is zoned GC General Commercial, will allow for a broad range of commercial uses. This property is currently planned to be a HEB grocery store. The proposed zoning district, GC General Commercial, is compatible with the zoning district to the west and would make the current use on the property conforming. 3.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the districts that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: The proposed rezoning to GC General Commercial is suitable for this area due to its location on FM 2154 (Wellborn Road), a Major Arterial. Additionally, the property will be located at a signalized intersection when Balcones Drive is completed. The property is currently developed as commercial. Koppe Bar & Grill has existed on the property prior to annexation, in 1992. The proposed zoning district will make the use on the property conforming and allow for redevelopment in the future. 4.Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the College Station, TX Printed on 8/18/2017Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:17-0459,Version:1 district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The property is developed with a use that is permitted in GC General Commercial, the proposed zoning district. By rezoning the property the owner has the opportunity to redevelop the site in the future. 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: Although the property can be marketed if rezoned to zoning district that is consistent with the current Suburban Commercial land use, which allows for commercial uses, the marketability of the property will increase if rezoned to GC General Commercial. The marketability will further increase due to its location at a future signalized intersection of FM 2154 and the future Balcones Drive, a 2-lane minor collector that will be built with the Jones Crossing Development. 6.Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally suitable and adequate for the proposed use: Water service is currently provided by College Station Utilities. There is an existing 3-inch waterline along FM 2154. Sewer service is available via existing 18-inch sewer main to the west of the property. Additionally, the property is in the Bee Creek drainage basin. The site generally drains to the northeast. Drainage and other public infrastructure required with site redevelopment shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the B/CS Unified Design Guidelines. The subject tract will take access from FM 2154 (Wellborn Road), a 6-lane Major Arterial, and will have access to Balcones Drive, 2-lane Minor Collector, when completed. Due to the size of the tract, a new Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was not warranted.

The soil within the planted area shall not be compacted or stabilized and shall be contiguous with the soil at the natural grade. 2. Interior Islands. a. All interior islands shall be evenly distributed throughout the interior of the parking area. b. For every fifteen (15) interior parking spaces, one hundred eighty (180) square feet of landscaping must be provided somewhere in the interior rows of the parking lot. Interior island areas may be grouped and configured as desired provided that circulation aisles remain clear and the minimum island area is not less than one hundred eighty (180) square feet. Interior islands may have sidewalks through them. c. End island areas that exceed the minimum required may be counted toward the interior parking island requirement. d. All interior islands must be raised at least six (6) inches and curbed, with the majority of the area of each island planted or treated with enhanced paving. The soil within the planted area shall not be compacted or stabilized and shall be contiguous with the soil at the natural grade. 3. Large Parking Lots. This subsection shall apply only to sites subject to the Non-Residential Architectural Standards of this UDO except for MU Mixed-Use districts: a. In order to break up the parking lot area and minimize visual impact, one (1) of the following parking concepts is required on any parking lot with greater than one hundred twenty (120) parking spaces. Parking concepts shall be approved by the Administrator provided that it meets one (1) of the following minimum criteria. Pedestrian walkways are allowed within the below-described areas. 1. Concept 1. Every one hundred twenty (120) parking spaces shall be a separate and distinct parking area connected by driving lanes but separated by landscaping strips a minimum of eight (8) feet wide and the full length of the parking row. Where pedestrian facilities are located within landscape strips or where vehicles would overhang these strips, the strip shall be a minimum of ten (10) feet wide; 2. Concept 2. For every one hundred twenty (120) parking spaces, a one thousand eight hundred (1,800) square foot landscaped island shall be installed (Landscape Pods). Such island(s) shall be located internal to the parking lot and shall be located so as to visually break up each one hundred twenty (120) parking spaces. The landscaping square footage calculation for parking lots greater than one hundred twenty (120) parking spaces shall be pro-rated at fifteen (15) square feet of landscaping per parking space; or, 3. Concept 3. For every one hundred twenty (120) parking spaces, an additional one thousand eight hundred (1,800) square feet of landscaped area shall be added/distributed to the interior row(s) end island(s) located closest to the right-of-way line (i.e. in conjunction with the minimum setback creating a double row of landscaping) but in no event shall the additional landscaped area be located farther than one hundred (100) feet from the right-of-way frontage. The landscaping square footage calculation for parking lots greater than one hundred twenty (120) parking spaces shall be pro-rated at fifteen (15) square feet of landscaping per parking space. b. Interior island area requirements may be consolidated into end islands, landscape strips, and landscape pods. c. Shopping cart storage spaces shall be identified on the site plan. These spaces shall not be located in landscape islands or any areas designed for plantings or pedestrian or bike access. d. All landscaping strips, islands, pods, and areas used to segregate the one hundred twenty (120) space parking areas as provided for above under "Parking Lots" must include canopy trees or structural shading. This requirement shall not apply to auto sales lots. E. Requirements Apply to All Parking Areas. Every parcel of land hereafter used as a public parking area, including commercial parking lots, visitor parking areas for single-family and townhouse uses, and parcels used for open-air sales lots, shall be developed and maintained in accordance with the requirements in this Section and as described in the City of College Station Site Design Standards. The requirements in this Section do not apply to overflow parking for churches, nor to temporary overflow parking for City events and temporary parking for special events. F. Surfacing. 1. General. All surfacing of off-street parking areas shall be constructed of either asphalt or concrete as described in the City of College Station Site Design Standards. Alternatives to the standards may be approved by the Administrator if it is demonstrated that the materials and design are equal or superior to the requirements in the Standards. All off-street parking areas shall be graded to drain and be maintained so as to dispose of surface water accumulated within the area. Parking spaces shall be so arranged and marked so as to provide for orderly and safe parking of vehicles. 2. Non-Public, All-Weather Drive Surfaces. Temporary or permanent drive surfaces that are required for emergency access or turnaround for emergency vehicles must be constructed to function under all weather conditions. To accommodate a project during construction, phasing, or permanent installation, drive surfaces that do not meet the requirements for permanent pavement surfaces may be allowed at the discretion of the Administrator for the specific conditions stated below: a. Temporary All-Weather Surface (During Construction). A structure under construction must be accessible by an all-weather drive surface as specified in the City of College Station Site Design Standards. This temporary all-weather surface must be reworked or replaced to meet the permanent pavement standard as described in the City of College Station Site Design Standards prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy; b. Semi-Permanent All-Weather Surface (During Phasing). In cases during phasing of a large project, emergency access and turnarounds often must be added as a temporary measure until additional phases are constructed. These emergency access areas may consist of permanent pavement surfaces as specified in the City of College Station Site Design Standards. When the additional phase is constructed, these areas must be removed or reworked to meet the permanent pavement standards as described in the City of College Station Site Design Standards; c. Permanent Surfaces. 1) All-Weather Surface (Permanent). In some development scenarios, an emergency access or turnaround must be constructed to meet emergency access purposes and is not required for public traffic, service vehicles or sanitation vehicles. In these cases, the area required for emergency access only may consist meetofthe permanent pavement standards surface as specified in the City of College Station Site Design Standards. 2) Permeable Surface. a. The use of porous materials (such as permeable concrete and pavers) to mitigate storm water sheeting and pooling of water may be used in off-street parking areas if the material meets vehicular loading standards and is approved by the Administrator. b. Fire lanes may also be constructed of porous materials such as permeable concrete and pavers to mitigate storm water sheeting and pooling of water, so long as it is demonstrated that the permeable surface can obtain sufficient land and compaction ratings for its application as approved by the City of College Station Fire and Sanitation Departments. c. Single-family and townhouse visitor parking areas, as required in Single-Family Residential Parking Requirements for Platting, may also be constructed of porous materials such as permeable concrete and pavers to mitigate storm water sheeting and pooling of water. d. Permeable surfaces approved as provided above shall be maintained in accordance with industry standards and to achieve mitigation of storm water sheeting and pooling of water. Failure to maintain permeable surfaces as required herein, shall constitute a violation of the this Section of the UDO for which penalty provisions may be involved. G. Curbing Required. 1. General. The perimeter of all paved surfaces shall be curbed as described in the City of College Station Site Design Standards. Unless otherwise required pursuant of this Section, curbs may be omitted where drive aisles or parking spaces are located adjacent to a building if bollards or other protective devices are installed to protect pedestrian areas. Alternatives to the standards may be approved by the Administrator if it is demonstrated that the materials and design are equal or superior to the requirements in the Standards. 2. Temporary Curbing. A temporary curb may be permitted in lieu of the minimum standard stated in the City of College Station Site Design Standards, at the discretion of the Administrator, when a project is phased in such a way that a permanent, monolithic curb may preclude development of future phases or limit access to a recorded private or public access easement adjoining properties. Wheel stops shall not be permitted as a temporary curbing. Temporary curbing must have the appearance of permanent curbing and shall be temporarily attached to the pavement surfacing below and meet the minimum standards for dowelled-in curbs as described in the City of College Station Site Design Standards. H. Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces Required. 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. At least one (1) parking space must be provided unless otherwise specified in this UDO; 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; and 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 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; 8.7. 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.

An “Alternative Parking Plan” represents a proposal to meet vehicle parking and transportation access needs by means other than providing parking spaces on-site in accordance with the ratios established in Section 12-7.3.I, Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces Required. 2. Applicability. Applicants who wish to provide fewer or more off-street parking spaces than allowed above shall be required to secure approval of an Alternative Parking Plan, in accordance with the standards of this Section. The Administrator may require that an Alternative Parking Plan be submitted in cases where the Administrator deems the listed standard to be inappropriate based on the unique nature of the use or in cases where the applicable standard is unclear.’ 3. Contents. Alternative Parking Plans shall be submitted in a form established by the Administrator and made available to the public. At a minimum, such plans shall detail the type of alternative proposed and the rationale for such a proposal. 4. Review and Approval Procedure. The Administrator shall be authorized to approve Alternative Parking Plans. Appeals of the Administrator's decision may be made to the Planning and Zoning Commission. 5. Recording. An attested copy of an approved Alternative Parking Plan shall be submitted to the County Clerk's office for recordation on forms made available in the Department of Development Services. Proof of recordation of the agreement shall be presented to the Administrator prior to issuance of a Building Permit. An approved Alternative Parking Plan may be amended by the Administrator. 6. Eligible Alternatives. A number of specific parking and access alternatives are described below. The Administrator shall, however, be authorized to consider and approve any alternative to providing off-street parking spaces on the site of the subject development if the applicant demonstrates that the proposed plan shall result in a better situation with respect to surrounding neighborhoods, City-wide traffic circulation, and urban design than would strict compliance with otherwise applicable off-street parking standards. a. a. Demand-Based Parking. When the developer of a non-residential or multi-family 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 by the applicant through the development of a parking study prepared by a professional engineer or transportation planner and submitted to the Administrator. Duplex, townhomes and single family developments are not eligible for the demand-based parking option. a.b. Shared Parking. The Administrator may authorize a reduction in the number of required off-street parking spaces for multiple-use developments or for uses that are located near one another and that have different peak parking demands or different operating hours. Shared parking shall be subject to the following standards: 1. Location. Shared off-street parking spaces shall be located no farther than two hundred fifty five hundred (250500) feet from the building site. The Administrator may waive this distance limitation, if adequate assurances are offered regarding the usability of the shared lot and the principle use (such as the operation of a van or shuttle service, etc.). that van or shuttle service shall be operated between the shared lot and the principal use; 2. Zoning Classification. Shared-parking areas shall be considered accessory uses of principal uses that the parking spaces are intended to serve. Shared parking areas shall require the same or a more intensive zoning classification than that required for the most intensive of the uses served by the shared parking area; 3. Required Study and Analysis. The applicant shall submit a shared parking analysis to the Administrator that clearly demonstrates the feasibility of shared parking. The study shall be provided in a form established by the Administrator and made available to the public. It shall address, at a minimum, the size and type of the proposed development, the composition of tenants, the anticipated rate of parking turnover, and the anticipated peak parking and traffic loads for all uses that shall be sharing off-street parking spaces. The Administrator shall have the authority to require a revised study and analysis should conditions change that may result in a change in site parking conditions; 4. Shared Parking Agreement. A shared parking plan shall be enforced through written agreement among the owners of record. An attested copy of the agreement shall be submitted to the County Clerk's office for recordation on forms made available in the Department of Development Services. Proof of recordation of the agreement shall be presented to the Administrator prior to issuance of a Building Permit. A If a shared parking agreement may be is revoked by the parties to the agreement only if, either off-street parking ismust be provided pursuant to this Section, or if an Alternative Parking Plan ismust be approved by the Administrator; and 5. Revocation. Failure to comply with the shared parking provisions of this Section shall constitute a violation of this UDO and shall specifically be cause for revocation of a Certificate of Occupancy or Building Permit. b. Off-Site Parking. The Administrator may permit all or a portion of the required off-street parking spaces to be located on a remote and separate lot from the lot on which the principal use is located, subject to the standards of this Section. 1. Location. No off-site parking space shall be located more than two hundred fifty five hundred (250500) feet from the building site. The Administrator may waive this distance limitation if adequate assurances are offered regarding the usability of the off-site lot and the principle use (such as the operation of a van or shuttle service, etc.). that van or shuttle service shall be operated between the shared lot and the principal use; 2. Zoning Classification. Off-site parking areas shall be considered accessory uses of principal uses that the parking spaces are intended to serve. Off-site parking areas shall require the same or a more intensive zoning classification than that required for the use served; 3. Off-Site Parking Agreement. In the event that an off-site parking area is not under the same ownership as the principal use served, a written agreement among the owners of record shall be required. An attested copy of the agreement between the owners of record shall be submitted to the County Clerk's Office for recordation on forms made available in the office of the Administrator. Proof of recordation of the agreement shall be presented to the Administrator prior to issuance of a Building Permit. If Aan off-site parking agreement may be is revoked by the parties to the agreement, either only if off-street parking is must be provided on-site pursuant to this Section 12-7.3, Off-Street Parking Standards or if an Alternative Access and Parking Plan is must be approved by the Administrator. c. Bicycle Parking. The Administrator may authorize a reduction in the number of required off-street parking spaces for developments or uses that make special provisions to accommodate bicyclists. Examples of accommodations include bicycle lockers, employee shower facilities, and dressing areas for employees. (Ord. No. 2012-3449 , Pt. 1(Exh. I), 9-27-2012; Ord. No. 2012-3450 , Pt. 1(Exh.

Demand-Based Parking. When the developer of a non-residential or multi-family 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 by the applicant through the development of a parking study prepared by a professional engineer or transportation planner and submitted to the Administrator . Duplex, townhomes and single family developments are not eligible for the demand -based parking option. b. Shared Parking. The Administrator may authorize a reduction in the number of required off -street parking spaces for multiple-use developments or for uses that are located near one another and that have different peak parking demands or different operating hours. Shared pa rking shall be subject to the following standards: 1) Location. Shared off-street parking spaces shall be located no farther than five hundred (500) feet from the building site. The Administrator may waive this distance limitation, if adequate assurances are offered regarding the usability of the shared lot and the principle use (such as the operation of a van or shuttle service, etc.). 2) Zoning Classification. Shared-parking areas shall be considered accessory uses of principal uses that the parking spaces are intended to serve. Shared parking areas shall require the same or a more intensive zoning classification than that required for the most intensive of the uses served by the shared parking area; 3) Required Study and Analysis. The applicant shall submit a shared parking analysis to the Administrator that clearly demonstrates the feasibility of shared parking. The study shall be provided in a form established by the Administrator and made available to the public. It shall address , at a minimum, the size and type of the proposed development, the composition of tenants, the anticipated rate of parking turnover, and the anticipated peak parking and traffic loads for all uses that shall be sharing off -street parking spaces. The Administrator shall have the authority to require a revised study and analysis should conditions change that may result in a change in site parking conditions; 4) Shared Parking Agreement. A shared parking plan shall be enforced through written agreement among the owners of record. An attested copy of the agreement shall be submitted to the County Clerk's office for recordation on forms made available in the Department of Development Services. Proof of recordation of the agreement shall be presented to the Administrator prior to issuance of a Building Permit. If a shared parking agreement is revoked by the parties to the agreement, either off-street parking must be provided pursuant to this Section or an Alternative Parking Plan must be approved by the Administrator; and ORDINANCE NO. ___________ Page 16 of 16 5) Revocation. Failure to comply with the shared parking provisions of this Section shall constitute a violation of this UDO and shall specifically be cause for revocation of a Certificate of Occupancy or Building Permit. c. Off-Site Parking. The Administrator may permit all or a portion of the required off -street parking spaces to be located on a remote and separate lot from the lot on which the principal use is located, subject to the standards of this Section. 1) Location. No off-site parking space shall be located more than five hundred (500) feet from the building site. The Administrator may waive this distance limitation if adequate assurances are offered regarding the usability of the off -site lot and the principle use (such as the operation of a van or shuttle service, etc.). 2) Zoning Classification. Off-site parking areas shall be considered accessory uses of principal uses that the parking spaces are intended to serve. Off -site parking areas shall require the same or a more intensive zoning classification than th at required for the use served; 3) Off-Site Parking Agreement. In the event that an off -site parking area is not under the same ownership as the principal use served, a written agreement among the owners of re cord shall be required. An attested copy of the agreement between the owners of record shall be submitted to the County Clerk's Office for recordation on forms made available in the office of the Administrator. Proof of recordation of the agreement shall b e presented to the Administrator prior to issuance of a Building Permit.
