Some of the options include:  Defining Shared Detached Housing, which is also referred to as an Ag-Shack or Stealth Dorm.  Regulating the size of dwellings in certain areas.  Creating a High Occupancy Overlay District where additional density could be allowed, thus reducing pressure on other neighborhoods.  Creating an additional overlay district designed to preserve certain characteristics of neighborhoods.  Eliminating the ability to reduce a front setback when rear access is provided, or when side yard or rear yard parking is provided.  Eliminating or requiring additional approval to have shared access.  Eliminating the ability to combine parking areas and to require a setback to the property line.  Restricting the parking in front of a dwelling within the front setback area.  Regulating how landscape materials, which can also be used as parking materials, must exist on a property.

The ordinance currently excludes scooters and other electric modes of transportation but since that time electric modes have been introduced. Staff received direction in October 2021 to amend the ordinance to allow electric micro-mobility devices (bicycles and scooters), require lock-to parking, and regulate speed. A draft ordinance amendment was created based on direction received. Staff provided an overview of the current regulations as it relates to private micro-mobility and crashes that have occurred in the community. Proposed Changes:  Rename Dockless Bike Share Program to Shared Micro-Mobility  Allow electric bicycles and scooters  Include language about an abandonment fee if operator leaves without taking their devices (to be added through the Fee Resolution)  Further define Geofence zones 1. TAMU geofence  Area determined in partnership with TAMU and COCS 2. Other geofence zones  Areas outside of the TAMU geofence (no overlap)  Can overlap with other operator geofences  Include requirements  Cyber liability insurance (cyber-attacks, data breaches, etc.)  15 mph speed limit  With an option to have lower speed limits in designated areas  Rebalancing  If devices are left more than 5 days in one location  When 75% of available bicycle parking is occupied  Upon request by the City  Parking hubs – a minimum amount of micro-mobility devices is maintained in one location  ‘Lock-to’ parking  Locking devices to a bicycle rack or operator designated parking area Majority of Council directed staff to move forward with proposed changes as presented. 8.

Public Hearing, presentation, discussion, and possible action to consider Ordinance No. 2022-4351 on a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to the Neighborhood Center future land use description, intent, and generally appropriate zoning districts within Chapter 2, Distinctive Places of the Comprehensive Plan.
