ING CERTAIN OVERLAY DISTRICT PROVISIONS IN SUB-SECTIONS A, B, AND K,
AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, on October 12, 1995 the College Station City Council determined that
certain provisions within the City's Zoning Ordinance that pertain to the Overlay District

nance and to ensure compliance with the intent of the ordinance;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
COLLEGE STATION:
That sub-sections A, B, and K of Section 8.19 of the Ordinance No. 1638, the Zoning
Ordinance, of the City of College Station are hereby amended to read as follows:
In the event that an area is rezoned to apply the overlay district, this district shall
apply to all multi-family, commercial, and industrial property, and where applica-
ble, to single family, duplex or townhouse development. The underlying district
establishes the permitted uses and shall remain in full force, and the require-
ments of the overlay district are to be applied in addition to the underlying use
and site restrictions.
PURPOSE: This district is established to enhance the image of key entry points,
major corridors, and other areas of concern, as determined by the City Council,
by maintaining a sense of openness and continuity. In cases of conflict between
this overlay district and the underlying zones, the more restrictive regulation
shall apply.
SPECIAL RESTRICTIONS FOR GASOLINE SERVICE STATIONS: In cases
where the underlying zoning district permits gasoline service stations and a
station is proposed, the following restrictions shall apply:
1. ACTIVITIES RESTRICTED:
no major emergency auto repair.

all activities except those associated with fuel pumping must be
