Commissioner Osborne asked for clarification on definitions of a family. Commissioner Mather asked for clarification on blood relation. Commissioner Osborne explained that blood relation would be limited to the to the degree that can be documented.

definition of a family, as well as who gives authorization. Staff Planner Broadnax explained that authorized caretakers are state certified long-term live-in
care. Commissioner Mather asked for clarification on accessory dwelling units.
Assistant City Manager Prochazka stated that permitted accessory dwelling units have a separate limitation of no more than two unrelated. Commissioner Guerra suggested rewording the first sentence of the ordinance to read, “A family is any number of persons occupying a single dwelling unit, provided that no such family shall contain more than four persons, unless all members are related by (1) related by blood, adoption, guardianship, or marriage, or (2) are part of a group home for disabled persons, or an authorized caretaker…”.

Regular Agenda
Rezoning – Pershing Pointe Villas PDD
To: Planning & Zoning Commission
From: Rachel Lazo, Senior Planner
Agenda Caption: Public hearing, presentation, discussion and possible action regarding an ordinance
amending Appendix A, “Unified Development Ordinance, “Article 4, Zoning Districts,” Section 4.2
“Official Zoning Map,” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas by changing the
zoning district boundary from T Townhouse to PDD Planned Development District on approximately 5
acres of land generally located at the intersection of Towers Parkway and Momma Bear Drive. Case #
REZ2020-000007 (Note: Final action of this item will be considered at the January 14, 2021 City Council
Meeting – Subject to change).
Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request and associated concept plan.
Summary: This request is to rezone approximately 5 acres of the Pershing Pointe Villas townhouse
development located near the intersection of Deacon Drive West and Holleman Drive South from T
Townhouse to PDD Planned Development District with a base zoning district of T Townhouse.
The tract was rezoned to T Townhouse in October 2016 and Preliminary Planned as part of a larger
townhouse development in March 2017. In March 2020, the Preliminary Plan was revised to modify one
phase of the development to accommodate a detached single-family product. This request is in effort to
provide additional single-family housing types for the remaining unplatted portion of the overall
development.
REZONING REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Whether the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan:
The subject tract is designated on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map as
General Suburban and on the Concept Map as Growth Area V. The Comprehensive Plan states that
the General Suburban portion within Growth Area V is suitable for high-density single-family lots,
townhomes, and duplexes. The proposed zoning permits townhomes and duplexes, allowing the
property to be developed consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
2. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed zoning district will be appropriate in the context of
the surrounding area:
The existing T Townhouse zoning allows for dense residential uses, which is compatible of the
development in the surrounding area. Given the property’s close proximity to multiple townhouse
developments, and its designation of Growth Area V in the Comprehensive Plan, a PDD which
allows for townhouse and duplex developments supports the planned growth in the area. The
continuation of high-density single-family is compatible with the adjacent Barracks and
manufactured home developments.
3. Whether the property to be rezoned is physically suitable for the proposed zoning district:
The size and location of the subject property is suitable for residential uses. The site meets the
minimal dimensional standards for the T Townhouse district. The proposed lots will have frontage
Page 11 of 23
Page 2 of 3
to and take access directly from Momma Bear Drive. It is adjacent to multiple townhouse
developments. There is no floodplain on the property, and it is relatively flat. There is an existing
50-foot pipeline easement that bisects the property which should not negatively affect the
property, and the developer is proposing to exclude the area encumbered by this easement from
the developable area.
4. Whether there is available water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities
generally suitable and adequate for uses permitted by the proposed zoning district:
Wellborn Special Utility District has indicated that they have sufficient infrastructure in the area
and intend to provide domestic water and fire flow to the tract. College Station Utilities also has
existing sanitary sewer mains through the property and adequate capacity to provide wastewater
service.
The subject property generally drains to the northeast within the Bee Creek Drainage Basin. The
tract is not encumbered by FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). Downstream detention has
already been provided to accommodate full build-out. Additional drainage improvements and
other public infrastructure required with site development shall be designed and constructed in
accordance with the B/CS Unified Design Guidelines.
The subject property has access to Holleman Drive and Deacon Drive, which are designated as a 4-
lane Minor Arterial and a 2-lane Major Collector, respectively, on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan. A
Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was not required as part of the rezoning request. At this time,
infrastructure is adequate for the uses permitted by the proposed PDD zoning district.
5. The marketability of the property:
The property can be marketed under the current zoning of T Townhouse which allows for
residential uses. However, the marketability of the property would increase if rezoned to allow for
additional housing types, as proposed.
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
Page 12 of 23
Page 3 of 3
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 stated purpose and intent of the requested PDD is to “provide more diversity to the Pershing
pointe development by allowing a unique housing style with buildings that only have end units.”
The Concept Plan proposes a townhouse development with some two-unit dwellings that appear to
be physically similar to the adjacent residential homes. Buildings are proposed to require attached
garages. Access from Momma Bear Drive is proposed.
Modifications Requested: T Townhouse is proposed as the base zoning district with a modification to
allow Duplex as a permitted use. A second modification has been proposed to allow the duplex units to
meet the dimensional and buffer standards of the base zoning district.
Community Benefits: The applicant offers the following as community benefits:
Duplex units to provide diversity to the Pershing Pointe townhouse development by allowing a unique housing style with buildings that only have end units.
All units will be required to have an attached garage in order to increase interest for owner occupied units and match the aesthetic of the existing and proposed structures within the development.

Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request and associated concept plan.
