type, in this area. Staff Planner Schrum stated that staff has seen interest from this area to pursue this type of zoning.
Commissioner Collins asked if staff would describe this area as being used for single family. Staff Planner Schrum stated that the market is driving the housing in this area, and staff
would describe the area as single-family residential.
Chairperson Christiansen clarified that before the Middle Housing zoning district existed, there were several zoning districts that could have been requested and asked how the applicant decided on a Middle Housing zoning.
Staff Planner Schrum stated that housing products in this area can lean towards shared housing and that the Middle Housing zoning district provides the ability to have it as a conforming legal use in the area.

Staff Planner Schrum stated that the applicant provided a traffic analysis that showed the trip generation to be under the limit for alleviation requirements.
Commissioner Collins expressed concerns for patchwork zoning in the area and asked if this was part of a grander plan to rezone a larger area. Staff Planner Schrum stated that staff has had preliminary discussions regarding city-
initiated rezonings for Middle Housing, also stating that staff is using the Comprehensive
Plan to help implement the desired future development pattern, and that the rezoning would not create spot zoning. Director Ostrowski stated that staff would not consider this a spot zoning request, as the
request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Ostrowski also clarified that this is
the first request for this zoning district in the city, stating that the City is looking at city-initiated rezonings, collaborating with a working group that is analyzing areas throughout the City to identify areas to proceed with rezoning.
Chairperson Christiansen asked for clarification that staff is not planning to create spot
zoning. Director Ostrowski clarified that staff was directed by City Council to convene a working group to identify areas for city-initiated Middle Housing rezoning.
Commissioner Collins expressed concerns with city-initiated rezonings resulting in economic incentives for people who want to change their zoning for these residences compared to those that want the zoning but are not a part of a pro-active rezoning.
Director Ostrowski clarified that this area is being considered for city-initiated rezoning to
create an equal playing field. Developments must meet all requirements for the specified use. Chairperson Christiansen asked for clarification that staff is comfortable with this lot being
rezoned by itself.
Director Ostrowski confirmed that staff is comfortable with the single lot rezoning. Applicant, Crissy Hartl, Mitchell & Morgan Engineers, was available to address and
answer questions from the Commission.
Chairperson Christiansen asked how the applicant chose a Middle Housing Zoning District.
Crissy Hartl stated that the applicant felt that this was the appropriate zoning district based
on the Comprehensive Plan.

Commissioner Mirza asked for a description of what the applicant is planning to build.
Crissy Hartl stated that the applicant does not have a design at this time but will build
for an allowed use. Commissioner Collins clarified that a Middle Housing designation met the applicant’s criteria, asking for the applicant’s criteria in picking the lot.
Crissy Hartl stated that the applicant owns the property as an investment property and is looking to provide housing beneficial to students with a close proximity to campus. Commissioner McIlhaney asked if Mitchell & Morgan is seeing more interest in a
Middle Housing Zoning District.
Crissy Hartl stated that they are seeing a lot of interest in the zoning district and are working on a variety of housing products throughout the city.
Chairperson Christiansen opened the public hearing.
George Dresser, College Park Subdivision, College Station, expressed concerns with greater density in the neighborhood.
Chairperson Christiansen closed the public hearing.
Chairperson Christiansen asked for clarification that staff is comfortable going forward setting the precedent for Middle Housing.
Director Ostrowski stated that staff is comfortable based on the Comprehensive Plan’s
designation of this area as Mixed-Residential, the greater density of this area, and the surrounding types of uses. Commissioner Collins stated that the Commissioners agreed to support and to be guided
by the Comprehensive Plan when they were interviewed for the Commission.
Commissioner McIlhaney expressed support for a Middle Housing designation. Commissioner McIlhaney motioned to recommend approval of the Rezoning,
Commissioner White seconded the motion. Commissioner Mirza expressed support for mixed-housing and different layouts. Commissioner Chaloupka expressed support for the rezoning, stating that this is an area

Regular Agenda
Rezoning – Cooner St
To: Planning & Zoning Commission
From: Robin Macias, Staff 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 MF Multi-Family to MH Middle Housing for approximately 1.12 acres
being Lots 13-16 of the Cooner Addition, generally located at 301 – 307 Cooner Street. Case # REZ2023-
000002 (Note: Final action of this item will be considered at the March 23, 2023 City Council Meeting –
Subject to change).
Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the request.
Summary: This request is to rezone approximately 1.12 acres of land being four platted lots generally
located at 301 – 307 Cooner St from MF Multi-Family to MH Middle Housing. The subject properties
were platted in 1940 and are currently developed as single-family homes and multi-family. It is the
applicant’s intent to redevelop the lots to build duplexes.
REZONING REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Whether the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan:
The subject properties are designated on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use & Character
Map as Mixed Residential and are within the Texas Avenue and University Drive
Redevelopment Area. For the Mixed Residential land use, the Comprehensive Plan provides the
following:
Areas appropriate for a mix of moderate density residential development including
townhomes, duplexes, small multifamily buildings (3-12 unit), and limited small-lot single
family. These areas are appropriate for residential infill and redevelopment that allows
original character to evolve. These areas may serve as buffers between more intense multi-
family residential or mixed-use development and suburban residential or neighborhood
conservation areas.
The intent of the Mixed Residential land use is to accommodate a walkable pattern of small
lots, small blocks, and well-connected street pattern that supports surrounding neighborhoods.
Developments in this district should prioritize a mix of housing types and scales located near
community facilities or adjacent to commercial or neighborhood centers. This rezoning request
aligns with that vision.
The zoning districts that are generally appropriate within this land use include: middle housing,
duplex, townhouse, and limited-scale single-family zoning.
The Comprehensive Plan discusses residential infill and redevelopment in both Chapter 3,
Page 22 of 45
Strong Neighborhoods and Chapter 8, Managed Growth. The plan states, “infill development
offers the opportunity to mediate and enhance the identity of neighborhoods.” The plan goes
on to mention that infill and redevelopment can create more viable and vibrant places
throughout the city. Residential infill, especially in areas of the city designated for
redevelopment, improves the efficiency of land use while enhancing the character of
surrounding neighborhoods. As a tool for redevelopment, the request allows a mix of housing
types with smaller lot sizes and is aligned with the Comprehensive Plan. The MH Middle
Housing zoning district allows a variety of housing options by right—detached single-family
homes, duplexes, townhomes, Courtyard houses, small and medium multiplexes, and live-work
units.
2. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed zoning district will be appropriate in the context of
the surrounding area:
The subject property is surrounded by single-family homes in the City of Bryan to the north and
duplex and multi-family developments to the east, south and west. The residential uses permitted
in MH Middle Housing zoning district are appropriate in the context of the area as it would allow
for additional, medium-density residential development in the area.
3. Whether the property to be rezoned is physically suitable for the proposed zoning district:
The size and location of the subject properties are suitable for single-family, townhouse, duplex,
and multiplex uses, although some uses would require replatting of the lots to fit the dimensional
standards of the MH Middle Housing zoning district.
4. Whether there is available water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities
generally suitable and adequate for uses permitted by the proposed zoning district:
The existing water and wastewater infrastructure is adequate to support the needs of this
development. Drainage and any other infrastructure required with the site development shall be
designed and constructed in accordance with the BCS Unified Design Guidelines. The subject
property fronts Cooner Street. Each residential lot will take access off Cooner Street as it is a local
street. Per the MH Middle Housing zoning standards, rear parking is required if the proposed use
requires four or more parking spaces. The proposed use is expected to generate less than 150
trips in any peak hour; therefore, a TIA was not required.
5. The marketability of the property:
The uses allowed by the proposed zoning district are generally marketable for the area. The
applicant mentions that the properties are close to Texas A&M University and will serve the
student population, and while the current uses allowed are marketable, duplexes are equally as
appropriate and marketable for these lots.

List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change
necessary.
As the student population at Texas A&M University continues to grow, the need for housing close to the
University becomes more important. The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this need and includes a new land
use designation ideal for infill redevelopment that will accommodate a variety of moderate density residential
land uses. These properties are ideal for redevelopment and this rezoning to allow middle housing residences,
such as duplexes will further implement the Plan.
Indicate whether or not this zone change is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. If it is not,
explain why the Plan is incorrect.
The Comprehensive Plan indicates these properties are designated for Mixed Residential uses. Mixed
residential is intended for a mix of medium density uses and the MH Middle Housing zoning district was created
to implement the desire for varied densities. There is a variety of housing types along Cooner Street and in the
vicinity. Duplexes will further support the mix of housing types and is in accordance with the Comprehensive
Plan. These properties are also located within a Redevelopment area on the Comprehensive Plan.
Redeveloping these properties will enhance the character and value of the neighborhood.
How will this zone change be compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby
property and with the character of the neighborhood?
Multi-family development is also suitable for the property and would be more appropriate if there was an
opportunity to consolidate additional property. With only these properties available for redevelopment, the MH
Middle Housing zoning district is more suitable for these lots.

Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the rezoning district requested.
Duplexes contribute to the desired mix of densities and housing types specified in the Mixed Residential land
use designation making this development very suitable for the property. Duplexes are especially suitable due to
the proximity to Texas A&M University.
Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
Duplexes contribute to the desired mix of densities and housing types specified in the Mixed Residential land

the proximity to Texas A&M University.
Explain the marketability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
Multi-family uses as permitted by the existing zoning district are marketable on this property, similar to how other
surrounding properties have developed. These properties are close in proximity to Texas A&M University and
will serve the student population. Duplexes are equally as appropriate and marketable for these lots and will
serve the same purpose.
List any other reasons to support this zone change.

MEMORANDUM
March 2, 2023 TO: Members of the Planning & Zoning Commission FROM: Molly Hitchcock, AICP Assistant Director, Planning & Development Services
SUBJECT: UDO Amendment regarding Conditional Use Permits
Item: Public Hearing, presentation, discussion, and possible action regarding an ordinance amending Appendix A, “Unified Development Ordinance,” Article 3, "Development Review Procedures,” Section 3.16, “Conditional Use Permits" of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, regarding conditional use permits. Case #ORDA2022-000009 (Final action on this item is scheduled for the March 23, 2023 City Council Meeting – subject to change). Summary: The Conditional Use permitting process allows the City Council, upon recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission, discretionary approval of land uses with unique or widely varying operating characteristics or unusual site development features. A
Conditional Use permit is approved for particular use, on specific property, with a site plan that meets all Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) requirements and additional requirements that the City Council deems necessary to ensure the appropriateness and compatibility of the use
with neighboring properties. The UDO defines the process for permitting a Conditional Use, but it does not speak to minor
changes or the duration, suspension, revocation, or expiration of a Conditional Use. The proposed amendment: 1. Makes minor formatting changes, such as capitalizing defined terms. 2. Gives the UDO Administrator the ability to approve minor changes to a Conditional Use permit when structure heights are not increased, a building expansion is 10% or less, the building and/or use does not become closer to adjacent residential uses, and required open space is not reduced. More substantial changes would still require City Council approval through a new Conditional Use permit. 3. States the duration of a Conditional Use permit. 4. Defines the terms by which a Conditional Use expires. 5. Gives the City the ability to temporarily suspend a Conditional Use for public health and
safety reasons (24 hours or until the danger is removed). 6. Clarifies that it is unlawful to violate the terms of a Conditional Use permit. 7. Establishes the City’s ability to revoke a Conditional Use permit, for what reasons, and
the process to do so.

The proposed ability of the UDO Administrator to approve minor changes to a Conditional Use
will allow for a more efficient Conditional Use permitting process. The UDO allows the Administrator similar discretion for minor adjustments to development standards and Planned Development District Concept Maps, and the process is similar to the practice in other
communities in Texas. Without language regarding the end of use, a Conditional Use may continue at a location until the use is amended, has been replaced by a different use, or the property rezoned. The proposed amendment will clearly state when a Conditional Use expires. A process is also defined to allow for the reconsideration and possible revocation of Conditional Uses permits that were obtained fraudulently, where the conditions of approval were violated, the uses were expanded without permission, or there were convictions of other code or ordinance violations. Background: At their August 25, 2022 workshop meeting, the City Council heard a presentation from College Station Police Chief Billy Couch regarding the current conditions of
the Northgate Entertainment District and future options for improvement. One of the long-term solutions offered to Council to improve the environment of Northgate was to implement Conditional Use Permits for bars, similar to elsewhere in the City. Currently, nightclubs, bars,
and taverns are allowed by Conditional Use Permit in College Station, with the exception of the Northgate zoning districts, where they are allowed by right. The Council directed staff to explore this and other solutions that were discussed.
Staff continues to research solutions as directed but have identified a need to amend the current Conditional Use Permit process as proposed. To note—while the proposed changes originated from research regarding nightclubs, bars, and taverns, the amendment does not solely apply to these land uses but will affect all Conditional Use permits in the City. Land uses requiring Conditional Use approval include:
• new multifamily developments and drive-in/thru windows in the WPC Wolf Pen Creek design district;
• outdoor educational facilities in the WE Wellborn Estate and E Estate zoning districts;
• commercial amusements in the SC Suburban Commercial, WC Wellborn Commercial, and retired C-3 Light Commercial zoning districts;
• commercial day care facilities in the MU Mixed-Use zoning district and retired R-4 Multi-Family and R-6 High Density Multi-Family districts;
• mobile food courts in MF Multi-Family, MU Mixed-Use, P-MUD Planned Mixed-Use District, GC General Commercial, WPC Wolf Pen Creek, NG-1 Core Northgate, and
NG-2 Transitional Northgate;
• nightclubs, bars, and taverns in MF Multi-Family, MU Mixed-Use, P-MUD Planned
Mixed-Use District, GC General Commercial, and WPC Wolf Pen Creek;
• recreational vehicle parks in GC General Commercial;
• retail sales and service of alcohol in MF Multi-Family and WPC Wolf Pen Creek;
• warehousing/distribution in BP Business Park; and
• major cell tower facilities in R Rural, O Office, GC General Commercial, CI Commercial Industrial, BP Business Park, and BPI Business Park Industrial districts and retired C-3
Light Commercial, M-1 Light Industrial, and R&D Research and Development districts. Supporting Materials: 1. UDO Section 3.16 Conditional Use Permit redlines

MEMORANDUM
March 2, 2023 TO: Members of the Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Matthew Ellis, AICP, Staff Planner SUBJECT: Progress Update on the Texas Avenue & University Drive Redevelopment Plan
Item: Presentation, discussion, and possible action on the ongoing Texas Avenue & University Drive Redevelopment Plan effort. (Note: Discussion of this item is scheduled for the March 23, 2023 City Council Meeting on the workshop agenda – subject to change.)
Recommendation: To receive the presentation and provide direction to staff. Summary: Staff will provide an update on the Texas Avenue & University Drive Redevelopment Plan, an important priority project from the FY23 PDS Plan of Work that is underway. This item comes from Comprehensive Plan Action 2.2 to prioritize and undertake detailed plans for priority redevelopment areas. Four priority planning areas were identified during the Comprehensive Plan update in 2021, including the Texas Avenue & University Drive Redevelopment Area. Currently through Phase 2, this planning effort has engaged property owners and interested
residents in a process to imagine the area with a new distinct identity that welcomes visitors and residents into the City. Other goals include incorporating vertical and horizontal mixed-uses, supporting existing commercial uses, and providing a greater mix of housing options to support
the growing population seeking to live, work, and play near Texas A&M University. Staff have engaged a wide audience throughout the community thus far. This included holding
three working group meetings, two property and business owner meetings, two area-wide meetings, two meetings on the Texas A&M University campus, and a virtual area-wide meeting, as well as launching a virtual engagement website to gather anonymous feedback. Additionally,
staff is directly engaging with property developers with significant ties in the area, representatives from the Texas Department of Transportation, and Texas A&M University on future projects in the planning area. Staff also continue to coordinate internally to ensure the
plan’s development meets the needs of all departments and maintains the City’s excellent services. Staff will be seeking direction on the proposed goal language and potential action items that help to implement the proposed goals.

MEMORANDUM
March 2, 2023 TO: Members of the Planning & Zoning Commission FROM: Alyssa Halle-Schramm, AICP, Long Range Planning Administrator SUBJECT: Priority Areas for City-Initiated Rezoning to the MH Middle Housing Zoning District
Item: Presentation, discussion, and possible action on priority areas for possible City-initiated rezoning to the MH Middle Housing zoning district. (Note: Discussion of this item is scheduled for the March 9, 2023 City Council Meeting on the workshop agenda – subject to change.)
Recommendation: To receive the presentation and provide direction to staff. Summary: Staff will present prioritized areas for possible City-initiated rezoning to the newly created MH Middle Housing zoning district. Background: This item comes from both Comprehensive Plan Action 2.1 to undertake amendments to the Unified Development Ordinance’s zoning districts to implement the updated Future Land Use & Character categories and Action 2.11 to continue to initiate proactive zoning
map updates in strategic areas to encourage transitions to the desired community character, encourage redevelopment, and implement the Future Land Use & Character Map.
Staff collaborated with residents, developers, and the broader community to create the MH Middle Housing zoning district that allows a flexible mix of housing products by-right, including small lot single-family, duplexes, townhouses, small and medium multiplexes, and live-work units. The Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council unanimously approved the new MH Middle Housing zoning district in October 2022. At that time, the Council directed staff to form a working group to consider appropriate areas for possible City-initiated rezoning to the new district to redirect development pressures out of established neighborhoods, encourage redevelopment in appropriate areas, and realize the vision set forth in the Future Land Use & Character Map. The working group consisted of seven members, including three neighborhood representatives, three development community representatives, and one representative from the Texas A&M University’s School of Architecture. This group met with staff from November 2022 through February 2023 to discuss and prioritize areas. The working group developed a general
methodology to 1) focus on areas classified as Mixed Residential on the Future Land Use & Character Map, 2) eliminate from consideration areas that are zoned for multi-family to not downzone properties, 3) eliminate from consideration properties that are zoned PDD Planned

Planning & Development Services • 1101 Texas Avenue, PO Box 9960 • College Station, TX 77840
Office 979.764.3570 / Fax 979.764.3496
Development District as those contain custom zoning requirements, and 4) gain general group consensus on the appropriateness of the remaining properties. The working group classified
those as being recommended to move forward with at this time, or those that need further consideration and/or focused engagement efforts with the specific property owners and/or neighborhoods.
Staff will present the working group’s prioritizations, with a focus on the recommended properties, and seek Commission and Council feedback. After determining which areas are appropriate to move forward, staff will conduct further analysis of each area to ensure there is adequate infrastructure in place to support rezoning the property or properties at this time. Staff will then host public engagement opportunities to discuss the potential zoning changes with surrounding neighborhoods and any interested parties. Once a property or properties have gone through these processes, staff will begin the formal rezoning process that includes public hearings and review before the Commission and Council.
