"Types of Use,” Section 6.4 "Specific Use Standards,” Article 7, "General Development
Standards," Section 7.2 "General Provisions,” Section 7.3 "Off-Street Parking Standards,”
Section 7.6 "Landscaping and Tree Protection,” Section 7.7 "Buffer Requirements,” Article 11,
"Definitions," Section 11.2 "Defined Terms,” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College
Station, Texas, regarding the creation of a new use called Shared Housing.
Michael Ostrowski, Planning and Development Services Director, stated that on September 22, 2022,
City Council tabled this item to allow staff the opportunity to meet with the building/development
community to discuss potential concerns. Staff held a building and development breakfast on
September 29, 2022, where they presented the tabled item, answered questions, and received feedback
on potential modifications to the ordinance and potential next steps. Some attendees expressed
concerns with some of the criteria being used to help define Shared Housing. In addition, if a Shared
Housing use is established, several attendees expressed a desire to identify locations for these uses to
locate legally, which included a discussion regarding the City initiating these rezonings, especially
where many of these uses already exist or are likely to exist in the future. After hearing the comments
regarding the definition, staff propose the following modifications to address some of the concerns
heard, as well as to provide additional clarity:
Below is a listing of changes/additions being proposed as part of this ordinance amendment:
Section 6.3 – Add Shared Housing to the use table and make it a permitted use within the MF
– Multi-Family and Northgate districts. The intent would also be to make them a permitted use
within the MH – Middle Housing district once it is created.
Section 6.3 – Remove the Northgate High-Density Dwelling Unit as the Shared Housing use
would replace it.
Section 7.2 – Require that structures with Shared Housing uses be subject to the Low-Density
Residential Height Protection requirements. They will be exempt as part of the Middle
Housing zoning district creation, other than on the periphery of the Mixed Residential land use
(where it meets a lower classification/use).
Section 7.3 – Set the parking standards for Shared Housing uses to one per room that are at
least 70 s.f. in area, excluding a kitchen, a living room, and a laundry room. The Administrator
may also exclude additional rooms, but not below the number of bedrooms.
Section 7.7 – Require Shared Housing uses to buffer to lower classification uses or zoning
districts. They will be exempt as part of the Middle Housing zoning district creation, other
than on the periphery of the Mixed Residential land use (where it meets a lower
classification/use).
Section 11.2 – Remove the Northgate High Density Dwelling Unit definition, as it is being
replaced by the Shared Housing use.
Section 11.2 – Add a definition for Shared Housing.
The Planning and Zoning Commission heard this item at their September 1, 2022 meeting and
unanimously recommended approval. Staff also recommends approval.

CCM101322 Minutes Page 11

Housing.
