The City of College Station has begun a process to update its Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of this update is to create a more workable plan that can help guide decisions about future growth and development. WHAT IS THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN? The Comprehensive Plan is a statement of the community's vision for the future and a guide to achieving that vision. Generally, the purpose of a Comprehensive Plan is to anticipate growth and to guide that growth in a manner that provides College Station with a balance of land uses that promote economic growth while retaining the quality of life. The Comprehensive Plan is not a “zoning regulation” and it does not affect existing approved zoning. Instead, it provides the foundation for making changes or developing new regulations that implement identifiie vision, goals and policies. The Comprehensive Plan includes, among other components, a Land Use Plan and a Transportation Plan. WHEN WAS THE CURRENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ADOPTED? The current Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1997. While small area and neighborhood plans have been developed since 1997, the curreen Comprehensive Plan has not been reviewed in its entirety since its adoption. Since 1997, College Station’s population has increased by 40%, building permits have been issued for over 5,000 single-family homes and College Station has increased in size by over 4,000 acres. WHY DO WE NEED A NEW COMPREHENSIVE PLAN? The City is updating the Comprehensive Plan in order to determine the City's vision for the future; decide which types of development opportuniitie are compatible with the vision; determine where and how the City should grow; provide guidance in making land use decisions; preseerv and improve the integrity of neighborhoods and overall quality of life; and promote economic development. HOW LONG WILL THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE TAKE? The update is anticipated to take several years to complete. Because public input is a vital part of a successful planning process, there will be many public meetings, work sessions, and workshops. If you are interested in receiving information regarding the Comprehensive Plan Updaate sign up for the College Station CityLink E-notifier to receive emails and meeting schedules by selecting the "2006 Comprehensive Plan Update" under "Notice Categories," or contact Jennifer Prochazka at jprochazka@cstx.gov.

The changes, which go into effect on 3 July, are summarized below: Non-commercial and political signs: Language was added to section 7.4.R, limiting the size of non-commercial and political signs to 50 square feet. New language also clarifies that signs may not be placed in any public RightoofWay and provides a time limit for the placement of signs (allows sign placement up to 90 days prior to the event and requires sign removal within 10 days after the event). Sign removal: Language was added to Section 7.4.Y, requiring signs to be removed if the associated building is demolished. When new signage is installed, it will be required to comply with the current provisions of the Unified Development Ordinance. Community Spirit Signs: Community spirit signs were relocated to Section 7.4.E (Exempt Signs) and language was added that provides for on-premise as well as off-premise community spirit signs. Signage for neighborhood groups: Provisions have been made in Section 7.4.E (Exempt Signs) to allow for neighborhood event signage with the following conditions: The name of the association sponsoring the event is featured on the signs The neighborhood group/association is registered with the City of College Station The signs are located within the perimeter of the neighborhood The signs are in good repair, and; The signs may be placed up to 14 days prior to the event, and removed within 24 hours after the event. Commercial Banners: Section 7.4.J was added to address the use of commercial banners.

Changes to the Unified Development Ordinance Approved by City Council The College Station City Council recently approved several changes to the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) as a result of the annual review process. The changes, effective 3 July, are summarized by section below: General Approval Procedures (Section 3.1) Section 3.1 of the UDO was amended to make notice requirements consistent with the Texas Local Government Code. The proposed language will make the timing of both published and mailed notices consistent regardless of the applicatiio type. Currently, some application types only require ten days for the mailed notice but 15 days for the published notice. Administrative Adjustments (Section 3.15) Developers can only apply to the Administrator for an Administrative Adjustment to those requirements related to residential, non-residential, and design district dimensional standards (Sections 5.2, 5.4 and 5.7, respectively). All other requests for a variance to the UDO will be heard by the Zoning Board of Adjustment Limited Mix of Uses in PDDs (Section 5.5.C) Section 5.5.C “Planned Development District (PDD)” was changed to allow for some mix of uses in a PDD. The purpoos of this amendment was to delete Section 5.5.C.4 that restricts the combination of commercial and residential land uses in a PDD. Currently, this practice is only permitted in a P-MUD, or Planned Mixed-Use District. These distriict do vary such that the P-MUD zoning district is identified in Section 6.2 Types of Use (Use Table) with a specific menu of permitted uses. Permitted uses in PDDs are specifically identified within the context of the rezoning to PDD. Further, P-MUD has specific requirements and thresholds that address the ratio of the mixed uses. A PDD that propoose a mix of uses (residential and non-residential) is only appropriate in areas where the Land Use Plan reflects Planned Development or Redevelopment. WPC Setback (Section 5.7) All residential zoning districts in College Station (with the exception of A-O and A-OR) are permitted to reduce the requiire front setback to 15 feet when approved rear access is provided, or when side yard or rear yard parking is providded The Wolf Pen Creek (WPC) Design District requires a front setback of 25 feet for all uses, including multi-family projects. This was changed to allow for a reduced setback for multi-family projects when the above mentioned conditiion are met. Wireless Transmission Facility (Section 6.3) Section 6.3 was amended is to encourage collocated wireless facilities by making their application process less arduoou and to improve the organization of this section of the UDO as it relates to the type of wireless facility proposed.

Site Design Standards References/Parking Ratios/Curbing and Surfacing (Sections 7.2.F, 7.2.G, 7.2.H) Sections 7.2.F, 7.2.G, and 7.2.H were amended to refer to the Site Design Standards. The off-street parking table now includes a ratio for freestanding furniture sales at one (1) space per 350 square feet. The table was also amendiin by changing the ratio for motor vehicle service areas from one (1) space per 100 square feet to one (1) space per 200 square feet. This section was also changed to consistently identify the Administrator as the person with the discreetio to allow for alternative drive surfaces and to specify surfacing requirements. Drive-Thru Facility Queuing Requirements (Section 7.2.J) This amendment requires the design of queuing areas for drive-through facilities. Change to Alternative Parking Option (Section 7.2.K) Bicycle parking was removed as an alternative parking option. Geometric Design of Driveway Access (Section 7.3) Section 7.3 was amended as follows: 􀂏 Section 7.3.C.7 “Geometric Design of Driveway Access” to change acceptable curb return radii for residential from 2.5’-10’ to 3’-10’, and from 20’-30' to 25’-30’ for non-residential; 􀂏 To identify the Administrator as the person whom may require a larger radii; and To change the range for a residential driveway approach width from 10'-28' to 12'-25'.
