(Note: Discussion of this item is scheduled for the March 11, 2021 City Council Meeting on the workshop agenda – subject to change.) Background: City Council requested that City staff draft a Restricted Occupancy Overlay (ROO) ordinance and associated handbook that would allow single-family property owners the option to request an overlay zoning restricting occupancy to no more than two unrelated persons in their subdivision. The Council asked for a process that mirrored the City’s Neighborhood Conservation Overlay ordinance and handbook, as well as used the City of Bryan’s Residential-Neighborhood Conservation zoning district as a base. Staff conducted research, drafted an ordinance and handbook, and presented these during workshop sessions of the Planning & Zoning Commission on June 18, 2020 and City Council on June 25, 2020. The Council requested additional public input on a few key items so that everyone impacted and particularly neighborhoods, the real estate and development community, and university students could provide meaningful input. Staff began that process in August 2020 and quickly identified there were substantial concerns regarding the City’s definition of “related’ and how it affected the determination of a “family.” In response to citizen concern and Council direction, staff paused the ROO public input process and overhauled the definitions to address their restrictive nature and modernize them in accordance with legal precedent. The updated definitions, which substantially revised “family” and removed “related,” were adopted by the City Council on December 10, 2020. With the new “family” definition in place, staff launched the ROO public input process. Staff hosted three public input meetings that were specifically tailored to the aforementioned groups, including February 8 for the real estate and development community, February 22 for university students, and February 23, 2021 for neighborhood organizations. Staff also hosted an online poll from February 9 through 26. Staff will present a summary of input from those meetings and the poll for the Planning & Zoning Commission’s consideration.

Case #PP2020-000015 Staff Planner DiMeolo presented the waiver request and Preliminary Plan to the Commission, recommending approval. Commissioner Guerra asked where Sara Lane will tie into. Staff Planner DiMeolo stated that the developer has proposed to have a temporary access easement for turn around at the end of Sara Lane. Transportation Planning Coordinator Schubert stated Sara Lane extension is a requirement of the subdivision regulations and will extend into open property. Commissioner Guerra asked if it is anticipated that Sara Lane ties to a road or thoroughfare. Page 7 of 44 January 21, 2021 P&Z Meeting Minutes Page 3 of 3 Transportation Planning Coordinator Schubert confirmed that Sara Lane will likely tie into a thoroughfare as it is probable that development along FM 158 will be commercial property along with additional phases of Summit Crossing. Commissioner Guerra inquired about the detention ponds on the property, asking if they are in the flood plain. Engineering Services & Construction inspections manager Armstrong stated that the area of detention is not floodplain or tributary. Mr. Armstrong further explained that Summit Crossing is using this area as regional detention for development. Commissioner Mather motioned to recommend approval of the waiver request and Preliminary Plan citing all criteria have been met. Osborne seconded the motion, motion passed (7-0). 7. Discussion and possible action on future agenda items – A Planning & Zoning Member may inquire about a subject for which notice has not been given.

Case # REZ2021-000002 (Note: Final action on this item is scheduled for the March 25, 2021 City Council meeting - subject to change) Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request. Summary: The applicant is requesting to rezone the subject property from R Rural and CI Commercial Industrial to BP Business Park on the periphery of the BioCorridor. This request is the first step towards developing the subject tract and the adjacent parcel to the north as part of a planned campus development. REZONING REVIEW CRITERIA 1. Whether the proposal is consistent 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 the Presidential Corridor Gateway District. The Comprehensive Plan describes Business Park as areas that include office, research and development, or industrial uses planned and developed as a unified project. This area was identified in the Comprehensive Plan as one that should focus on accommodating businesses 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. In addition, the City’s Economic Development Master Plan’s goal for this area is to provide adequate opportunities to respond to market opportunities as it relates to supporting and stimulating biotechnology research and advanced manufacturing. The proposed zoning district is consistent with the existing uses in the nearby area, such as Fujifilm and Viasat. 2. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed zoning district will be appropriate in the context of the surrounding area: The property has over 1,000 feet of frontage and takes access to Raymond Stotzer Parkway, which is an existing Freeway/Expressway. The subject area is directly adjacent to the BioCorridor, which allows for various office, research and development, and industrial uses. The rezoning request is in anticipation of a planned campus development on the adjacent property to the north. The proposed zoning district will further the Comprehensive Plan’s goal for unified development and provide additional opportunities to support primary job creation. Page 20 of 44 3. Whether the property to be rezoned is physically suitable for the proposed zoning district: The site meets the minimum dimensional standards for the Business Park zoning district and is planned to be part of a larger campus development. The size and location of the subject property is suitable for business park uses. 4. Whether there is available water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally suitable and adequate for uses permitted by the proposed zoning district: There is an existing Wellborn water line along Raymond Stotzer Frontage Road. There is a City of College Station Water Master Plan line along the north of the subject property that will be extended with platting. The sanitary service for this property will be provided by the City of Bryan and is located along the north property line. Drainage and other public infrastructure required with site development shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the BCS Unified Design Guidelines. Existing infrastructure appears to be adequate for the proposed use at this time. 5. The marketability of the property: The tract is currently marketable with its current zoning, but the present uses, rural residential and group housing, are not appropriate for its location.

Development in the Bio-Corridor Page 2 of 2 Page 28 of 44 March 4, 2021 Regular Agenda Rezoning – Williams Creek Reserve Rezoning 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 boundaries from R Rural to E Estate and NAP Natural Areas Protected on approximately 57 acres of land located at 9500 Rock Prairie Road. Case # REZ2020-000011 (Note: Final action on this item is scheduled for the March 25, 2021 City Council meeting - subject to change) Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request with the condition listed at the end of this report related to the existing oil and gas well on site development. Summary: This request is to rezone approximately 57 acres of land located east of the intersection at Rock Prairie Road and William D. Fitch. The subject property currently has an operating oil and gas well on site and is a planned expansion of the existing Williams Creek Reserve Subdivision. The condition proposed will ensure any future residential development will provide adequate spacing from the wellsite. REZONING REVIEW CRITERIA 1. Whether the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject property is designated as Estate and Natural Areas Reserved on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map. The Estate designation is generally for areas that, due to public service limitations or prevailing rural character, should have limited development activities. These areas will tend to consist of low-density single-family residential lots of at least one acre in size or lots that average 20,000 square feet clustered around open space. Natural Areas Reserved is intended for areas that should be preserved for their natural function, such as floodplain and riparian buffers. This request is 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 proposed Estate zoning allows for large-lot single family residential uses. Given the property’s adjacency to the existing Williams Creek Reserve Subdivision and rural residential lots to the east, the proposed use would be easily incorporated with the existing developments. The proposed Natural Areas Protected zoning is anticipated to protect the FEMA floodplain from excessive development and maintain its natural state. While this area is currently zoned R Rural, the proposed zoning districts comply with the anticipated future land uses along this corridor as outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. 3. Whether the property to be rezoned is physically suitable for the proposed zoning district: The property has over 1,300 feet of frontage and takes access to Rock Prairie Road, which is a future 4-lane Major Arterial. The proposed Estate zoning is suitable for the future subdivision of land for acreage homesites and would have adequate access and utility availability. The northern Page 30 of 44 portion of the subject property contains FEMA-designated 100-year floodplain and is proposed to be protected from development by being zoned NAP Natural Areas Protected. Additionally, the condition proposed with the rezoning request will provide a minimum separation from the existing oil wellsite that is required to safely develop additional residential lots. The subject property is physically suitable for the proposed zoning districts. 4. Whether there is available water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally suitable and adequate for uses permitted by the proposed zoning district: Fire flow and domestic water service will generally be served by Wellborn SUD; however, there is a small portion of the property along Rock Prairie Road within the City of College Station’s Water CCN that will require the extension of City service lines. Currently, there are no sanitary sewer lines in the area available to serve the property. Individual lots may use On-Site Sewage Facilities (OSSFs) permitted by the Brazos County Health Department. With site development, the property will need to be designed to accommodate future public sanitary sewer service. The subject property generally drains to the northeast within the Carter’s Creek drainage basin and contains FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). 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 frontage along Rock Prairie Road, which is designated on the Thoroughfare Plan as a proposed 4-lane Major Arterial. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was not required as part of the rezoning request. 5. The marketability of the property: The applicant states that the marketability of the tract is limited with the existing R Rural zoning as a low number of lots could be created that do not support the cost of the required infrastructure. Should the rezoning request be approved, it is anticipated to increase the marketability of the property. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request with the following condition: The development of Williams Creek Reserve located on 57 acres on Rock Prairie Road will be limited by the existing McCullough-McCollough Unit 1 oil and gas well located on the property. No residential lots will be located within 300’ of the wellhead per International Fire Code requirements or within the Acceptable Separation Distance for Thermal Radiation for People (ASDPNPD) of 483 feet from the 73’’ x 20’ Heater Treater located at the wellsite. This distance was calculated using the Acceptable Separation Distance Assessment Tool provided by the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development. SUPPORTING MATERIALS 1.

Summary: The zoning and development ordinance for the BioCorridor Planned Development District establishes a BioCorridor Board as a body of representatives from the cities and the Texas A&M University System that would be able to make subjective decisions regarding specific requests in the area (such as appeals to site plan requirements and parking waivers) and recommendations to other decision-making bodies (such as subdivision waiver requests to the Planning & Zoning Commission). The ordinance calls for City Council to appoint three representatives from the City of College Station to the Board. Membership requires that: • One be a member of City Council and • Two be members of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
