Case #05- 129 (TF/AG) STAFF REPORT Project Manager: Trey Fletcher Email: tletcher@cstx.gov Report Date: Sept. 22, 2005 Meeting Date: October 6, 2005 Item: Presentation, discussion, and possible action on a Preliminary Plat for the Valley Park Center consisting of 4 lots on 11.63 acres generally located at the northwest corner of Harvey Mitchell Parkway (FM 2818) and Raymond Stotzer Parkway (FM 60). (05-500129) Applicant: Steve Duncan, Pledger Kalkomey agent for owners, Southcorp Holdings I, L.P. and Por Nada Joint Venture Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plat as submitted. Item Summary: The developer of the Valley Park Center is proposing a planned, light industrial business park consisting uses a mix of uses that are permitted in C-1 and C-2 zoning districts. Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The Land Use Plan shows this area as Regional Retail. Regional Retail is defined in the Comprehensive Plan as "areas • permitting regional-scale development of tax generating developments such as retail centers, service commercial, restaurants, etc. These uses are generally dependent on good access to highways and major arterials." The F&B Small Area Plan (2003) evaluated this area generally between FM 2818 and Turkey Creek Road, north of FM 60. The land use portion of this plan acknowledged this notion and provided additional thoroughfare access to the interior of the area (see Infrastructure & Facilities comments), and suggested that Regional Retail while still appropriate in this location should also accommodate C-2 and light industrial uses. Consideration for this was based on several factors, including: • Limited access from FM 2818 • Limited visibility due to the grade separation and elevated speed limits • Beneficial proximity to Easterwood Airport, Research Park, and truck routes Due to the proximity to Easterwood Airport, an Avigation and Clear Zone Easement exists at the southernmost portion of the parcel. In this area, land uses and height are restricted. The Preliminary Plat is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. Item Background: Annexed: 1970 • Rezoned: The entire tract was zoned C-1 General Commercial, most of the tract was rezoned to C-2 Commercial-Industrial in August, 2005. • Platted: Two tracts (2.0-acre and 9.63 acres); a preliminary plat application incorporating both has been filed (05-129) S~ • 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Development activity in the vicinity: Approximately 7.5 acres along F&B Road were annexed by petition in 2004. The tract was rezoned from A-O to C- 1, in 2004. A preliminary plat has been approved for the same area. Amini- storage warehouse was proposed on a portion of the property. Budgetary & Financial Summary: Oversize participation has been requested for the extension of a water line indicated on the Water System Master Plan. Related Advisory Board Recommendations: N/A Commission Action Options: The Commission has final authority over the Preliminary Plat. The options regarding the final plat are: ^ Approval with conditions; ^ Approval as submitted; ^ Denial; ^ Defer action only at applicant's request; or, ^ Table only at applicant's request. apporting Materials: Location Map Aerial Map Application Infrastructure and Facilities Copy of Preliminary Plat n U } Q ~ TECHNOLOGY LOOP Z • v ~.~, ~ a w z`O~S ~ o a a ~~ ~ ~tGa~~~Q~ ~J N ~J~y~ l~ U ~- ~ i~ ~ ~ ~~,, w ~'~o~ U o Y ~ Q 4 ~ >- .o~o/ Q ~ J bf s~ Q ~'~o, ~ ~~5 Go W ~~ ~ W Od, P~`o? ~ P+ ~ 5~ 9 y ~G~ ~ Z v°~~ ° WW ~n~nn~n ^G^ L~J ~ I.L 0 ~ .> J ~ W _ _ o ~~~J~~~~~~~• ~ e, ~ ea Z °o <.

Case #05-161 (LB/AB) STAFF REPORT Project Manager: Lindsay Boyer Report Date: September 21, 2005 Email: Iboyer@cstx.gov Meeting Date: October 6, 2005 Item: Presentation, discussion, and possible action on a Preliminary Plat for the Spring Creek Commons Subdivision consisting of 5 lots on 50.547 acres, developing in 4 phases and generally located at the northeast corner of Greens Prairie Road and SH 6. Applicant: Mitchell and Morgan, engineer for the owner. Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat. Item Summary: The subject property is being platted in preparation for a retail development. This property includes the extension of Lakeway Drive, a Major Collector on the Thoroughfare Plan, through the property. The plat shows development in four phases, with the first phase being located along Greens Prairie Road. Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The Comprehensive Land Use plan designates this area as Retail Regional. The property has frontage on SH 6, a • freeway, and Greens Prairie Road, a major arterial on the Thoroughfare Plan. This plat includes a 50-foot vegetated buffer that is a condition of the rezoning request. The condition requires a 100-foot buffer along the east side of the property behind the houses, unless the drainage channel is improved upon development of the property. The proposed plat includes the improvement of this drainage channel, which reduces the buffer to 50 feet. The proposed plat includes three access points from the frontage road; which are in compliance with Texas Department of Transportation driveway separation standards, and cross access is being granted through all the lots in this development. There is also access from Lakeway and Greens Prairie Road. This Plat is in compliance with all subdivision regulations. Item Background: This property was annexed in 1983, and zoned A-O.

Chairman Shafer stated that a comment was made earlier about the • notion of tabling the item. The reason for this was because the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board had not completed a review of the Master Plan and making any final determinations on what would happen in terms of parkland dedication. P&Z Minutes Regular Agenda September 15, 2005 Page 3 of 6 Commissioner Shafer stated that the Commission was not able to make a decision on item 8, but that the Commission would like to hear about items 7 and 8 together. • ennifer Reeves, Staff Planner, recommended approval of the rezoning request from A-0, J Agricultural Open to R-1, Single-Family Residential. She stated the change to R-1, Single- Family Residential is in compliance with the Land Use Plan. Ms. Reeves stated that the Commissioners were given a copy of all the e-mails regarding the Fotjik tract, and there were three or four that were specifically in opposition of the rezoning request. Ken Fogle, Transportation Planner, gave a presentation regarding access in the area. Mr. Fogle stated that Raintree was planned, and had always been planned, to have multiple access into it. In 1997 the Thoroughfare Plan vas amended with the full Comprehensive Plan update, and at that time Appomattox was removed and the extension of Raintree was added back. Mr. Fogle stated that safety and efficiency are two of the main reasons to allow multiple accesses in this area. Larry Claborn, 8303 Wildwood Circle, College Station, Texas. Mr. Claborn stated that he is in favor of the project but that his concern was with the sewer treatment plan and would like for someone to check on it and make sure it can handle the capacity before continuing with any expansion. Janice McBride, Ella Colvin and Cindy Dillard spoke ui opposition to the rezoning, h~laster Development Plan and Thoroughfare Plan. They ..voices concerns about the possible environmental impact and reclaiming the .land. They also stated that currently the • neighborhood is a quiet and safe neighborhood with a low crime rate. They felt that if the item vas approved it would. increase the crime rate in the area due to multiple accesses and it would not be as safe for their children to play in the parks or ride their bikes. Ms. Dillard also handed out a copy of a petition signed by residents against the Thoroughfare Plan and flyers handed out in the neighborhood for this project. Steve Arden, Developer,. 311 Cecelia Loop, College Station, Texas. lair. Arden gave a short presentation regarding the project and the concerns of the residents. Mr. Arden stated that it was his intent to bring both the rezoning and master plan to the Commission at the same time but that unfortunately it did not work out that way. Mr. Arden stated that he is asking for the support of the Commission in making a ruling on the rezoning and not wait until the Master Plan comes back to the Commission. Commissioner Nichols asked if Mr. Arden would address the questions regarding the old oil well pad and the sewer capacity. Mr. Arden stated that the old oil well pad had been inspected and a phase 1 environmental study had been completed and the cleanup was supervised by the Railroad Commission and it proves to be clean. Mr. Arden stated that there are a couple of old gas line stubs that remain, but that they will be taken out because they are no longer in use. Mr. Arden also stated that he would let Mr. McClure address the sewer issue. Mike McClure, 9262 Brookwater Circle, College Station, Texas. Mr. McClure stated that he • would defer this question to city staff, but that it was his understanding that the capacity was there and if there was a problem with the odor it is an operational issue. P&Z Minutes Regular Agenda September 15, 2005 Page 4 of 6 Alan Gibbs, Senior Assistant City Engineer stated that the capacity of the plant was more than adequate for a plant of its size. Mr. Gibbs stated that any complaints are an operational • issue. Commissioner Davis motioned to table the rezoning until additional information could be obtained and that the Rezoning, Thoroughfare Plan and Mater Plan can be heard at the same time. Commissioner Strong seconded the motion, motion passed (4-1). Commissioners Scott Shafer, Bill Davis, John Nichols and Harold Strong were in favor of the motion. Commissioner Ken Reynolds opposed the motion. Steve Arden requested clarification from Roxanne Nemcik, Assistant City Attorney, regarding the legality of tabling the rezoning since it did meet all requirements. Roxanne Nemcik, Assistant City Attorney, stated that a zoning is discretionary and that the Commission can decide to table the zoning, deny the zoning or grant the zoning. Ms. Nemcik stated that there is nothing that requires the Commission to approve the rezoning, that the Commission can grant, deny or table a rezoning to a future date. The Mater Plan is part of the platting process and that in the Unified Development Ordinance it states that the zoning should be in accordinance with the Comprehensive Plan'and it will not be allowed to plat unless the zoning is in accordinance with the plat. 8. Presentation, consideration and possible action on a blaster Development Plan for the Fojtik tract consisting of 47.7 acres generally located at off of North Forest Parkway to the north, and just east of Earl Rudder Freeway.

Case #05-163 (~') • MEMORANDUM TO: Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Ken Fogle, Transportation Planner I DATE: November 13, 2003 RE: Thoroughfare Plan Amendment -Appomattox Drive When the Raintree subdivision developed in the 1970's, Appomattox Drive was shown on the City of College Station Thoroughfare Plan as a minor arterial. When the subdivision was platted, a portion of Appomattox Drive was constructed and dedicated to the City. In addition, seventeen lots were allowed to front and take access off of this arterial roadway. This situation remained the same without Appomattox Drive being extended until 1997. Because of this, residents became accustomed to Appomattox Drive operating like a cul-de-sac rather than a major thoroughfare. With the City of College Station Comprehensive Plan update in 1997, the proposed extension of this roadway was removed from the thoroughfare plan primarily due to concerns of cut-through traffic. At that time, an extension of Raintree Drive to North Forest Parkway was included in the • Thoroughfare Plan to provide a secondary access to the subdivision. In August 2005, Mr. Steve Arden proposed to develop the Foltilc tract; development of this tract would connect Raintree Drive to North Forest Parkway. As part of this development, Mr. Arden has expressed interest in extending Appomattox Drive as a minor collector through the proposed development with the intent of it ultimately connecting to Raintree Drive. City staff is in agreement with this proposal and are jointly seeking this thoroughfare plan amendment. Over the past two years, the City of College Station has worked to improve connectivity within and between residential subdivisions. The primary benefits of connectivity include improving emergency response and mobility. Emergency response is improved by providing multiple access points into a neighborhood which shortens response times and provides alternate ingress and egress points in case of an evacuation. Mobility is improved by shortening trips which also makes walking and biking trips more practical. In addition, there are economic and environmental benefits that should not be overlooked. In addition to these benefits, there are other specific benefits of the Appomattox connection. One of the neighborhood concerns regarding the connection of Raintree Drive to North Forest Parkway is that is that Raintree Drive will become a primary thoroughfare carrying a significant amount of traffic through the neighborhood. The addition of Appomattox Drive will provide a parallel route to Raintree Drive m;nim;zing the amount of traffic through the neighborhood. Another benefit involves the undeveloped land between the former Westinghouse facility and the • existing Raintree subdivision. There are about fifteen (15) acres in this area that may be appropriate for residential development in the future. If they were to develop residentially, about 1,000 more residential trips would be generated with the only access points being on Antietam Drive and Sumpter Drive, which are residential streets that currently dead end into this tract. • City staff will be meeting with residents of the Raintree and Emerald Forest subdivisions on September 27~, 2005 to discuss this item further. At that time, neighborhood concerns will likley be raised. These concerns will be addressed in the staff presentation. If you have any questions prior to the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, please feel free to contact me by a-mail (kfogleC3cstx.gov) or phone (979.764.3556). • C~ ~~ C7 • Q~~ C6~ . , .~ BrazosLand Realty ~ Properties September 11, 2005 Mr. Joey Dunn, Director Planning & Development Services City of Coltege Station Mr. Dunn: Pending development of 47.752 Acres known as the Fojtik track, located between the present dead end of Raintree Dr. and North Forest Drive requires the connection of those two streets by the City's Thoroughfare Plan. A Master Plan has been submitted to the City for the development of the 47 acres into single family residential lots which meets the required traffic connections. As you are aware, processing of the master plan and zoning is underway through your Department. Unfortunately, even though the Master Plan meets the street alignment ordinance requirements the results are not satisfactory for either the Fojtik tract or our neighbors in the Raintree Subdivision. We are therefore, requesting to join with the City in a Comprenhensive Plan amendment which presently requires Raintree Dr. to be the collector street through the Raintree subdivision and the Fojtik property. A combination of terrain/drainage ways, major easements, ownership boundaries, adjacent zoning and the Raintree subdivision design all combine to preclude Raintree Dr. from being an effective traffic collector. Rather than providing for good traffic dispersal, Raintree Dr. utilized as the traffic collector funnels traffic through existing and future residential streets. Previous decisions made without an understanding of all of the physical characteristics have placed an undo burden on residents of Raintree Subdivision and future residents of the Fojtik track. Of particular concern, is the ten to twelve unused M-1 zoned acres between the Westinghouse/Northrup facility and the Raintree Addition. Land that when improved as presently zoned or separated for a future alternate use would utilize access through present dead end streets, Antietam and Sumpter Drives, or an ordinance required stub from the Fojtik subdivision. Like our Raintree neighbors, we do not want traffic from incompatible uses traveling through residential neighborhoods. Even with the connection of Raintree Dr. through the Fojtik property, Appomattox is a necessity between Raintree Dr. and North Forest Pkwy. Emergency service, connectivity to Antietam and Sumpter Drives, access to presently undeveloped M-1, land and general east side traffic circulation would all be enhanced by re-establishing Appomattox as the neighborhood collector on the Comprehensive Plan. Your helpfulness in addressing this issue is appreciated.

Applicant: Steve Arden, Brazos Land Reality Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request from A-O Agricultural Open to R-1 Single Family. Item Summary: This item was reviewed by the Commission last month on September 16th and tabled until they could have a public hearing on the Comprehensive Plan amendment. The applicant feels this zone change is necessary because of substantial and continued growth in the southern part of College Station. • Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The subject property is currently zoned A-O Agricultural Open and is shown on the Land Use Plan as single family medium density. The properties to the north are zoned R-1 Single-Family Residential which is a portion of Raintree Subdivision and M-1 Light Industrial which is the old Northrop Grumman building. These two tracts are shown on the Land Use Plan as Retail Neighborhood and Single Family Medium Density. The property to the west is zoned A-O and R-1, and is shown on the Land Use Plan as Institutional, which is currently Saint Thomas Aquinas Church. The properties to the east and south are shown on The Land Use Plan as single family medium density. The property to the south is currently zoned R-1 and developed as Emerald Forest Subdivision. The property to the east is zoned A-O and is currently undeveloped. The City's Thoroughfare Plan reflects Raintree Drive connecting to North Forest Parkway. Raintree Drive is considered a minor collector on the Thoroughfare Plan. Appomattox is also considered a minor collector. The zone change to R-1 Single Family is in compliance with the Land Use Plan; therefore, Staff is recommending approval of this request. Item Background: The subject property was annexed in the City of College Station city limits September of 1977, and is currently not platted. • • Commission Action Options: The Commission acts as a recommending body on the question of rezoning, which will be ultimately decided by City Council. The Commission options are: 1. Recommend approval of rezoning as submitted; 2. Recommend denial; 3. Table indefinitely; or, 4. Defer action to a specified date. Supporting Materials: 1.

We have lived on Sumter Drive for 18 years and have enjoyed the fact that we don't have to be concerned with a lot of traffic flowing through our neighborhood. Because of that, we are opposed to opening Raintree Drive for future developments. The safety of our children and those of us who spend time walking/running would be jeopardized if more cars were trying to use our only outlet to the rest of the city. by addition, we cannot be sure of just what kind of development is planned. We don't know exactly what type of housing will be built. This could possibly lead to problems for those of us who have bought homes here thinking that we would live on a dead-end • street. Please forward this information with our concerns to those who will be meeting to talk about this matter this evening. Thank you.

We live at 2506 Sumter in the Raintree subdivision. We will attend a funeral in Houston on Thursday and cannot attend the hearing, which we had planned on doing. We have a few concerns/questions: (a) What type of R-1 single family homes are proposed to be built in the rezoned area? Will these homes likely be properties that are valued lower, the same, or higher than the current values of properties in either Raintree or Emerald Forest? (b) What--ifany--will be the access(es) from Raintree to this new proposed subdivision? The access that A&M Church of Christ now has on certain days has affected safe • traffic flow in the neighborhood. More "through" streets into/out of Raintree threaten our neighborhood integrity and safety. (c) How will surface water drainage be managed? Our property has less than adequate drainage when heavy rains occur. Our property is actually lower than the street level. Other properties/streets in the back areas of Raintree seem to have rain drainage problems, as well. How will development in the proposed area worsen or improve this drainage problem? We realize that change and development are inevitable in a growing community like College Station. I trust our elected and appointed officials understand the importance of development in a manner that maintains the integrity of established neighborhoods and .improves conditions in the neighborhoods.

I can suggest a great solution to this issue. High traffic areas in subdivisions within Austin have speed bumps to keep the traffic in line.

MEMORANDUM MEMORANDUM Report Date: September 22, 2005 Meeting Date: October 6, 2005 TO: Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Jennifer Reeves, Staff Planner Email: jreeves@cstx.gov SUBJECT: Master Development Plan for Fojtik (MDP) Item: Presentation, consideration and possible action on a Master Development Plan for the Fojtik tract (MDP) consisting of 47.7 acres generally located at off of North Forest Parkway to the north, and just east of Earl Rudder Freeway. (05- 00500140) • A licant: Steve Arden, Brazos Land Realit pp Y Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Master Development Plan with the condition that a Comprehensive Plan amendment be approved for the extension of Appomattox before any portion of the street is reflected on future preliminary or final plats. There would also have to be a variance to the maximum 1200-foot block length requirement at the preliminary plat stage as well. Item Summary: This item was reviewed by the Commission September 16th and tabled until they could have a public hearing on the Comprehensive Plan amendment. The Master Development Plan (MDP) for the Fotjik tract encompasses 47.7- Acres.The Plan proposes Single Family Medium Density (3-6 DU/AC). Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The subject property is currently zoned A-0 Agricultural Open and is shown on the Land Use Plan as single family medium density. The properties to the north are zoned R-1 Single Family Residential which is a portion of Raintree Subdivision and M-1 Light Industrial which is the old Northrop Grumman building, These two tracts are shown on the • Land Use Plan and Retail Neighborhood and Single Family Medium Density. The • property to the west is zoned A-O and R-1, and is shown on the Land Use Plan as Institutional, which is currently Saint Thomas Aquinas Church. The properties to the east and south are shown on The Land Use Plan as single family medium density. The property to the south is currently zoned R-1 and developed as Emerald Forest Subdivision. The property to the east is zoned A-O and is currently undeveloped. The City's Thoroughfare Plan reflects Raintree Drive connecting to North Forest Parkway. Raintree Drive is considered a minor collector on the Thoroughfare Plan. Appomattox is also considered a minor collector. The land use that is being proposed on the Master Development Plan is in compliance with the City's Land Use Plan therefore, Staff is recommending approval of this request with the condition that the extension of Appomattox is approved via a Comprehensive Plan amendment allowing the future stub out and that the block variance is approved at the preliminary plat stage.

Chandler 2500 Monitor Court College Station, TX 77845 SUBJECT: Extending Raintree Drive Raintree Drive should not be open to the new proposed subdivision behind the Catholic Church. The developers should provide outlets directly to the feeder road on Hwy. 6. An excellent access road is already available on the south side of the church and a second access road should be developed on the north side of the church. Increased traffic on Raintree Drive will further deteriorate the road that is already in very poor condition from the park to the current entrance on Hwy. 6. • U file://C:\Documents and Settings\jreeves\Local Settings\Temp\GW}00002.HTM 9/12/2005 ik. .~ '€ Page 1 of 1 Jennifer Reeves -Raintree Development • From: "Kathy Newman" <newmansC~cox.net> To: <jreevesC~cstx.gov> Date: 9/14/2005 1:31 PM Subject: Raintree Development I would like to voice my opinion in the cut through of Raintree.

(OS-00500140) I am writing to tell you I am very much opposed to the extension of Raintree Drive to North Forest Parkway. Extending Raintree Drive to North Forest Parkway will simply make Raintree Drive an extension of Southwest Parkway and make automobile traffic along Raintree Drive both dangerous and noisy for the residents of the Raintree subdivision. The planning department has conducted numerous neighborhood workshops where residents have expressed neighborhood identity and limiting traffic as their prime concerns. By extending Raintree Drive, you will simply being oring what the residents of the eastside neighborhoods have expressed as their main concerns and worked to prevent over the last twenty years. Additionally, by extending Raintree Drive the city will be moving backward (to current trends in neighborhood planning) by making the priority of its planning automobile traffic and not the • citizens and children that live and play in the neighborhoods. Our neighborhoods should be pedestrian environments that will encourage foot traffic, neighborhood interaction and enhance the sense of local community and not thoroughfares for automobiles. As an added concern, Raintree Drive does not have sidewalks along both sides of the street and some areas of Raintree Drive and the Raintree subdivision have no sidewalks. By extending Raintree Drive, the city will be increasing risk to residents of Raintree by increasing the automobile traffic along a street where residents are already forced to walk on the street. Further, the City's comprehensive plan at one time (around 1999) showed a greenway buffer between lots along Sumter Drive that back up to the Fojtik tract and any planned development to the Southeast. I could not discern a buffer on the proposed development plan. Has this buffer been conveniently deleted? In addition, the city still has not resolved odor issues from the sewage treatment plant to the southeast of the Raintree subdivision. This has been a lingering issue for many years. Any new development near this sewage plant will further increase the number of upset citizens that will have to live with this obnoxious problem. Please do the right thing and keep Raintree a unique and safe neighborhood. Sincerely, • John A.

Raintree Dr. is the only entrance in and out of the neighborhood. Because of this, it is already a busy street. We live on Raintree and fear that allowing more traffic onto the street will endanger our children's safety. We have three children who walk to the park that is next door to us on Raintree Dr. Many kids ride their bikes or walk to the park. Do we really need to put children's safety at risk for the convience of a few people? We moved to this subdivision a year ago so our children could have a safe, quiet, family friendly neighborhood to five in. Allowing other neighborhoods to use Raintree as a cut through street will ruin the neighborhood as we know it by creating even more traffic flow, endangering our children's safety, creating more noise by cars whizzing by, and increased crime. Please, for our children's sake, do not allow Raintree Dr. to be the shortcut for other subdivisions.

The City has received a rezoning application to rezone approximately 48 acres of the Fojtik tract which is located just north of North Forest Parkway and just east of HWY.6 behind St.Thomas Aquinas Church. The zone request would be to rezone from the current zoning which is A-O Agricultural Open to R-1 Single Family which would be in compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan/Land Use Plan (adopted by City Council). The proposal is for a future development of a single family neighborhood, not multi-family (like apartment or duplex). Steve Arden is the applicant/developer. The subdivision would not be an addition the Raintree subdivision, this would be a new subdivision with it's own name and I believe the main entrance would be off of North Forest Parkway. There is also Master Plan being proposed for this development that does show Raintree Drive connecting with this development. Raintree Drive is being shown on the City's adopted Thoroughfare Plan to connect to Northforest Parkway. The Planning and Zoning Meeting is scheduled for September 15th at 7:00 PM in the Council Chambers at City Hall. The Rezoning is scheduled for a public hearing, however the Master Plan is not scheduled for a public hearing but it is on the regular agenda for the Commission to take action on. I hope I have answered all of your questions. Please feel free to contact me by phone or by email if I can assist you any further.

Yesterday we were made aware of a proposed extension of Raintree Drive to enable developers to build new housing. We, of course, have questions: What type of housing is proposed? Single family? Apartments? Who are the developers? Would the construction be an addition to the Raintree Subdivision or would a new subdivision be developed? What actual property is being considered for development? We are just full of questions, aren't we?

I appreciate the information you were able to share and enlightening me to the current situation. As we discussed, I do not have a problem with the zoning change itself. I do have concerns regarding opening Raintree Drive to through traffic. As we discussed, the Raintree Neighborhood is a family oriented neighborhood. There is one way in and one way out. Due to this configuration, the street traffic is limited. Children ride their bikes and pull their wagons along Raintree Drive. People walk their dogs, jog or take their morning or evening stroll along Raintree Drive. Currently the only sidewalk along Raintree Drive is on one side of the street. It goes from the entrance to the neighborhood to approximately one block south of Raintree Park. There are no other sidewalks. I have lived in the Raintree neighboghood since April 1993. I have enjoyed the quality of life in this neighborhood. I believe by opening Raintree Drive, the quality of life will only be lessened. Over the years Raintree has had its annual Fourth of July parade for the residents of Raintree. The parade proceeds down Raintree Drive from Sumpter to Raintree Park every year. If this road becomes a • through way, I feel this parade will no longer be able to occur. Loosing this tradition will only hurt the quality of life in our neighborhood. Also, during Halloween, Raintree is a busy place with children going house to house trick or treating. By opening up Raintree, you will be allowing more traffic into the neighborhood, exposing the children to more vehicular traffic than is currently experienced. Crime in Raintree is relatively limited. I believe with a limited means of access to the neighborhood, the criminal element for the most part stays out of Raintree due to lack of convenient escape. I understand the Master Plan calls for Raintree Drive to be a through street at some point in time. However, I do not believe the time is now. I understand that the area affected by the zoning change requires multiple access. I feel this access may be obtained by multiple entrances along North Forest Parkway and not through Raintree. I thank you for your time and consideration to this matter. We will be looking forward to the final outcome of this matter. Respectfully, Edward J.

We are fairly new homeowners to the area. One of the biggest reasons why we chose this cozy little area is because it's safe. It's quiet. It's low traffic. While we were house hunting, our gauge (to judge a house/neighborhood) was: would I be safe walking in this neighborhood, pregnant. Raintree is a big YES, as of right now. My husband and I were just saying yesterday how we loved our little secret pocket of a sub division. We are asking you to please do NOT do this to us.

We have enjoyed the fact that the subdivision has only one way in and out. Crime has been almost nonexistent and traffic has been minimal compared to most areas of the city. Until parents and landlords started buying property in the subdivision to house college students and friends and friends of friends I feel that Raintree has been one of the best areas in this city to live. Our property values are already in question due to the influx of college student housing in the subdivision. The addition of low income housing tagged on to the end of the street will insure that property values go down. The last attempt by the city to open Raintree was a plan to connect Appomattox from Winwood subdivision to Emerald Forrest. This has not yet happened but I'm sure it still exists in some developers or the cities plans. If a developer wants to build housing behind Raintree subdivision that's fine, just figure out a way to access it without extending Raintree Drive. Keep Raintree a closed subdivision.

We purchased our home on Calico Court because of the quiet and the beauty of the neighborhood plus the greatest feeling of security we have had in our entire lives. We have only lived here three months, this is our retirement home. We do not want to ever move again. The people here are friendly, helpful and considerate. Opening Raintree Dr. up will create a heavy and dangerous traffic situation. We have many children in the neighborhood who ride their bikes everywhere, walk to and from bus stops, and play in the park in relative safety. Young adults run and jog alone at dawn and dusk. Someone is always out walking a dog. The crime rate in Raintree is practically nonexistent. According to the classifieds, Bryan-College Station is overwhelmed by homes and condos for sale. Overbuilding means that many homeowners are being hurt financially by the city to whom they pay taxes. Not all development is good development especially when the developer is the only one with something to gain. With so much land available, why destroy an established neighborhood which has the quality of life the city has vowed to maintain? We beseech the Planning and Zoning Board and the City Council to deny this development and to ensure that the residents do not have to fight this type of thing again. • Respectfully, Mr. & Mrs. Wm. B. Colvin 2602 Calico Court 695-6815 Please forward to the Planning & Zoning Board and the City Council. • ~,~ s J Jennifer Reeves - Raintree...

State Highway 6, the College Station City Limits and University Drive East delineate the area for consideration. Case #05- 164 (TF) • STAFF REPORT Prepared by: Trey Fletcher, Sr. Planner Report Date: 09-26-2005 Email: tetcher@cstx.gov Meeting Date: 10-6-2005 Item: Public hearing, presentation, discussion and possible action on a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to amend the Land Use Plan for 450 Earl Rudder Freeway South and vicinity from Floodplain and Streams to Regional Retail. State Highway 6, the College Station City Limits and University Drive East delineate the area for consideration. (05- 164) Item Summary: This item is for the consideration of an amendment to the comprehensive Land Use Plan. The property owner is requesting to amend the land use plan from Floodplain and Streams to Regional Retail for a portion of the property, and the City of College Station is concurrently requesting to amend the plan in the vicinity where General Commercial zoning is established and commercial development has occurred or is anticipated. The property owner has obtained a fill permit from the City in compliance with the City's drainage ordinance and policies for reclamation. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the request as presented, and described as follows: • Amend the portion of the subject tract as requested located at 450 Earl Rudder • Freeway South from Floodplain and Streams to Regional Retail. • Amend parcels to the south that are zoned C-1, General Commercial from Floodplain and Streams to Regional Retail as shown. Item Background: This Comprehensive Plan Amendment is being processed concurrently with a related rezoning application from R-1 Single-family Residential to C-1 General Commercial. A portion of the parcel was filled years ago. This request and the corresponding rezoning request only apply to the elevated portion of the parcel. The remainder will retain its Floodplain and Streams designation as well as the R-1 Single- family Residential zoning. The applicant has filed a Letter of Map Revision based on Fill (LOMR-F) with FEMA and is under review. Previous development pressures on this parcel have sought to rezone the entire parcel, and not been successful. While Land Use Goal #5 states that College Station should encourage development that is in harmony with the environment, only improving the previously filled portion of the parcel satisfies this, as well as Goal #1. Land Use Goal #1 states that College Station should continue to provide and locate adequate amounts of appropriately zoned land for all necessary types of land uses in an efficient, convenient, harmonious, and ecologically sound manner. Relationship to Strategic Plan: Planning & Development: We will continue to promote swell-planned community.

Item Summary: The applicant is proposing to rezone a portion of a 10 acre tract that will be reclaimed from the floodplain. Of the remaining acreage, 4.47 acres will retain the R-1 zoning, and 1.08 acres are in the City of Bryan, and zoned C.

For the purpose of landscaping, College Station, Texas falls within Zone 8 of the USDA Hardiness Zone Map. Dwarf plants will not be allowed in required screening or buffer areas. B. Application of Section • • The landscaping requirements of this Section apply to ail land located in the City of College Station proposed for site development with the exception of those zoned NG-1, NG-2, and NG-3. The requirements also do not apply to single-family, duplex, or townhouse uses, except as follows: i. The requirements of this Section have limited application to properties developed for duplexes, as follows: a.A minimum of 200 points of landscaping as calculated in this Section shall be provided for each new duplex unit. b.Where parking is provided in the front yard, an eight-foot landscaped setback shall be required between the property line and the nearest side of the parking pad. This eight-foot setback area must be landscaped and contain athree-foot high screen consisting of a continuous berm, hedge, or wall. In addition, an eight-foot landscaped setback shall be required between the dwelling unit and the nearest side of the parking pad. c. The maintenance and completion requirements of this Section also apply to duplex uses. Every development must employ an irrigation system. All new plantings must be irrigated. An irrigation system shall be designed so that it does not negatively impact existing trees and natural areas. Soaker hose and drip irrigation system designs may be permitted as the Administrator deems appropriate. All plantings must be in accordance with the College Station Plant List, or as deemed appropriate by the USDA for Zone 8 in their Hardiness Zone Map. The plant list is approved and amended as needed by the Administrator. 2. The landscaping requirements of this Section shall apply to manufactured home parks, but not to individual manufactured homes on separate lots. 3. All landscaping/streetscaping requirements under this Section shall run with the land once the development has begun and shall apply against any owner or subsequent owner. 4. The landscaping requirements of this Section apply to ail unsubdivided property, improved subdivided lots other than single-family, . duplex, or townhouse lots, and to other improved lands where buildings or structures are being added or replaced within the City. 5. Each phase of a multi-phase project shall comply with this Section. 6. All plantings must be in accordance with the College Station Plant List, or as deemed appropriate by the USDA for Zone 8 in their Hardiness Zone Map. The plant list is approved and amended as needed by the Administrator. C. Landscaping Requirements 1. The landscaping requirements shall be determined on a point basis by the following: a.Landscape Points required: 30 points per 1,000 square feet of site area; b.The minimum number of points for any development is 800 points; c. Undeveloped floodplains may be removed from site size calculations; however, existing trees within that floodplain shall not be claimed for points; and d.Projects may be phased with the phase lines being drawn 20 feet beyond any new site amenity. The portion left for subsequent phases shall be of developable size and quality. 2. Point values will be awarded for any type of canopy tree, non-canopy • tree, or shrub, provided that the species claimed for point credit are not listed on the Non-Point Tree List as prepared by the Administrator. All caliper measurements shall be 12 inches above grade. a.Landscaping points are accrued as follows: • • • Plant Material Points • • Accrued er Plant .

To receive barricaded points for existing trees, they must be barricaded one foot per caliper inch. A barricade detail must be provided on the landscape plan. Barricades must be in place prior to any activity on the property including, but not limited to, grading. If in any event the required barricades are not in place prior to any activity and maintained during construction, barricaded points will be forfeited. 3.One hundred percent coverage of groundcover, decorative paving, decorative rock, or a perennial grass is required in parking lot islands, swales and drainage areas, and the parking lot setback unless otherwise landscaped or existing plants are preserved. One hundred percent coverage of groundcover or perennial grass is also required in all unpaved portions of street or highway right-of-way or on adjacent property that has been disturbed during construction. If grass is to be used for groundcover, 100% live grass groundcover is required whether by solid sod overlay or pre- planting and successful takeover of grasses. No point value shall be awarded for ground cover. Per Ordinance No. 2753 dated September 23, 2004 4. Every project must expend a minimum of 50% of its point total on • canopy trees. 5. For existing plantings, the Administrator may require a health appraisal. • 6. All new plantings must be irrigated. An irrigation system shall be designed so that it does not negatively impact existing trees and natural areas. Soaker hose and drip irrigation system designs may be permitted as the Administrator deems appropriate. • • 7. Additional Point Credits a.A 10 percent point credit will be awarded where the irrigation system employed is a recognized water-conserving system. b.A 10 percent point credit will be awarded if 25 percent or more of parking area consists of enhanced paving. c.A 10 percent point credit will be awarded for every one percent of site area devoted to special facilities including water features, public art, or other public features determined by the Administrator. 8. All landscape materials shall be installed in accordance with the current planting procedures established by the most recent addition of The American Standard for Nursery Stock, as published by the American Association of Nurserymen. 9. Landscaping must be reasonably dispersed throughout all visible areas of the site. D. Streetscape Requirements 1. The streetscaping requirements shall be determined along all major arterials, freeways, and expressways by the following: a.Within 50 feet of the property line along the street, one canopy tree for every 25 linear feet of frontage shall be installed. Two non-canopy trees may be substituted for each one canopy tree. b.Canopy and non-canopy trees must be selected from the College Station Streetscape Plant List and may be grouped as desired. c.One existing tree (minimum four-inch caliper) may be substituted for a new tree. Existing trees must be of acceptable health, as determined by the Administrator. 2. The streetscaping requirements shall be determined along all other roadways by the following: a.Within 50 feet of the property line along the street, one canopy tree for every 32 feet of frontage shall be installed. Two non- canopy trees may be substituted for one canopy tree. b.Canopy and non-canopy trees must be selected from the Administrator's Streetscape Plant List and may be grouped as desired. c.One existing tree (minimum four-inch caliper) may be substituted for a new tree. Existing trees must be of acceptable health, as determined by the Administrator. 3. Three hundred additional landscape points shall be required for every 50 linear feet of frontage on a right-of-way.

Driveways and areas located within a required visibility triangle shall be excluded from the Streetscape requirements in paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 above. • 5. Parking areas adjacent to a right-of-way shall be screened from the right-of-way. Screening is required along 100 percent of the street frontage (such as 10 shrubs for every 30 linear feet of frontage), with the exception of areas within the visibility triangle. Screening may be accomplished using plantings, berms, structural elements, or combinations thereof, and must be a minimum of three feet above the parking lot pavement elevation. Walls and planting strips shall be located at least two feet from any parking area. Where the street and the adjacent site are at different elevations, the Administrator may alter the height of the screening to ensure adequate screening. Fifty percent of all shrubs used for screening shall be evergreen. 6. Dumpsters, concrete retaining walls where more than six vertical inches of untreated concrete are visible, off-street loading areas, utility connections, and any other site characteristics that could be considered visually offensive must be adequately screened.

However, the applicant may receive an extension of four months from the date of the Certificate of Occupancy upon the approval of an application for extension with a bond or letter of credit in the amount of 150 percent of the landscape/streetscape bid, as well as the irrigation required for the project. Failure to complete the landscaping/ streetscaping according to the approved Landscape/Streetscape Plan at the expiration of the bond or letter of credit shall constitute forfeiting the bond or cashing of the letter of credit. Also, failure to complete the approved landscaping/streetscaping shall constitute a violation of this UDO. H. Review and Approval Landscape/Streetscape Plans shall be reviewed and approved by the Administrator. I. Parking, Storage, or Display No parking, storage, or display of vehicles or merchandise shall be allowed in the required landscape/streetscape areas or on required parking islands. 7. Alternative Compliance Permitted • Variations to the requirements of this Section may be approved if the landscape/streetscape plan is sealed by a registered landscape architect and approved by the Administrator. Such plans must show reasonable evidence that the requirements as set forth in this Section were used as a guide. 7.2 Buffer Requirements A. Purpose The purpose of buffer requirements, which generally include a buffer yard, plantings, and a fence or wall, is to provide a visual barrier between different zoning districts and to help mitigate any negative impacts of adjacent land uses on developed or developing properties. A buffer should visibly separate one use from another and shield or block noise, glares, or other nuisances. B. Applicability 1. Perimeter buffers shall be provided on building plots abutting developed (platted) or developing (in the process of platting) sites in accordance with the standards of this Section, as outlined in Section 7.6.F, Minimum Buffer Standards. The following shall provide buffers: a.Vacant sites that develop; b.Existing sites when additions, expansions, and/or redevelopments equal or are greater than 25% of the existing • improvements; • c. Existing sites when cumulative additions, expansions, and/or redevelopments total 25% or more of the existing improvements; d.Existing sites when a change of use intensifies the development in terms of elements such as traffic, processes, noise, water or air pollution, etc.; e.Existing sites with lawfully established non-conforming uses when the use is expanded; and f. Sexually-oriented businesses. 2. Exceptions to the terms of this Section will be made when: a.The adjacent developed use is non-conforming; b.The adjacent developed use is agricultural; c. The Land Use Plan designates the area as Redevelopment; d.The property is zoned P-MUD and the buffer requirement was determined through the rezoning process; or e. Properties in NG and RDD districts. C. Relationship To Other Landscaping Standards All buffer requirements shall be included on a development's Landscaping Plan. Landscaping provided to meet the buffer landscaping standards of this Section may not be counted towards meeting a project's landscape point requirements. The area of a site dedicated to a perimeter buffer • shall not be included in calculating a site's minimum landscaping point requirements. D. Location The buffer shall abut property boundaries shared with less intense uses or zoning districts as shown in Section 7.6.F, Minimum Buffer Standards. In the event that a property abuts a less intense use and a less intense zoning district, the more stringent buffer shall be required along the shared boundary. E. Permitted Uses i.A buffer yard may be used for passive recreation or stormwater management. It may contain pedestrian, bike, or equestrian trails provided that: a.No plant material is eliminated; b.The total width of the buffer yard is maintained; and c. All other regulations of this Section are met. 2. No active recreation area, storage of materials, parking, driveways, or structures, except for approved pedestrian, bike or equestrian trails and necessary utility boxes and equipment, shall be located within the buffer yard. 3. Pedestrian access through a perimeter fence or wall and buffer yard may be provided at the abutting resident's, homeowners association's, or the Administrator's option to provide convenient pedestrian access to nonresidential uses such as commercial areas or schools. • F. Minimum Buffer Standards The buffer requirements are designed to permit and encourage flexibility in the widths of buffer yards, the number of plants required in the buffer yard, and opaque screens. Standard buffer requirements are depicted in the table below. • • 1. Buffer Yards a.Buffer yards shall be measured from the common property line and may be located within established building setbacks. b.Where utility or drainage easements or other similar situations • exists in the required buffer yard, the buffer yard may be reduced by the width of the easement; however, an additional 5 feet may be required beyond the width of the easement in these situations to allow for the required plantings and fence or wall. All new plantings and irrigation shall be located outside of the easement. The Administrator has the discretion to allow a required fence or wall within the easement. 2. Plantings a.If a fence or wall is not required per the table above, the following plantings shall be installed in the buffer yard: Per Ordinance No. 2753 dated September 23, 2004 (1) A minimum of one 5-gallon shrub at a minimum of three feet in height per three linear feet of landscaping buffer. (2) A minimum of one 2-inch caliper canopy tree per 25 linear feet of landscape buffer. b.If a fence or wall is required per the table above, the following plantings shall be installed in the buffer yard: Per Ordinance No. 2753 dated September 23, 2004 (1) A minimum of one 1.25-inch caliper non-canopy tree per 15 linear feet of landscaping buffer. The Administrator may allow the substitution of a minimum of one 5-gallon shrub at a minimum of three feet in height per three linear feet of landscaping buffer for the non-canopy tree requirement, or may require the substitution to mitigate potential negative impacts of a development. * Includes duplexes. t Includes manufactured homes, mobile homes, manufactured home parks, and townhouses. [number] Depth of buffer yard (1) Fence (2) Wall (2) A minimum of one 2-inch caliper canopy tree per 25 linear feet of landscape buffer. c. All buffer yard landscaping areas not dedicated to trees or shrubs shall be landscaped with grass, ground cover, or other appropriate landscape treatment in accordance with Section 7.5.C.3, Landscaping and Tree Protection. d.Fifty percent of all required shrubs within the buffer yard shall be evergreen. e. Plant materials shall show a variety of texture, color, shape, and other characteristics. Recommended buffer materials can be found in the College Station Plant List or in those listed as appropriate for Zone 8 on the USDA Hardiness Zone Map. f. The arrangement of trees and shrubs in the buffer area shall be done in a manner that provides a visual separation between abutting land uses. Shrubs shall be massed in rows or groups to achieve the maximum screening effect. g.Irrigation is required for all new plantings. h.Existing vegetation may count toward the planting requirement if: (i) The vegetation is in good health and the landscaping plan verifies that it will meet the plantings criteria listed above (non-point trees may count towards a natural buffer); and • (2) The vegetation is protected in accordance with Section 7.5.C.2.c, Landscaping and Tree Protection, of this UDO. i. Plantings will not be allowed to encroach into a required visibility triangle for a public or private right-of-way except as provided for in Section 7.1.C, Visibility at all Intersections in All Districts. 3. Fences and walls a. Fences may be solid wood or solid wood accented by masonry, stone, EFIS (Exterior Finish Insulation System), or concrete columns. Walls may be masonry, stone, EFIS, concrete, or a combination of these materials, and shall be finished on both sides (framing not visible). Walls and masonry columns for fences must meet the footing standards prescribed by the Building Code for such structures. Per Ordinance No. 2753 dated September 23, 2004 b.Fences and walls shall be a minimum of six feet in height and a maximum of eight feet. Walls over six feet must obtain a building permit. When the adjacent property and the buffer yard are at different elevations, the Administrator may require a greater fence or wall height to ensure adequate buffering. c. Fences and walls shall be placed within one foot of the common boundary line when physically possible. In the event that there is a physical constraint that will not allow the construction of a fence on the common boundary line (including, but not limited to, the existence of a creek, access easement, or existing vegetation), the Administrator may authorize an alternative fence location. d.Fences or walls will not be allowed to encroach into a required visibility triangle for a public or private right-of-way. 4. Substitutions a. Existing natural vegetation may be used in lieu of plantings and a fence or wall under the following circumstances: (1) The existing vegetation consists of canopy and non- canopy trees which are shown through a tree survey to meet the minimum buffer planting requirements (non- point trees may be considered) and is of sufficient density to provide 100 percent opacity to a height of six feet; and (2) The vegetation is protected in accordance with Section 7.5.C.2.c, Landscaping and Tree Protection, of this UDO. b.Fences and walls may be substituted with a solid plant or hedge wall that is greater than six feet in height with approximately 100 percent opacity. All shrubs planted for a hedge wall must be a minimum of 15 gallons each. The solid plant or hedge wall must be evergreen and may not be counted towards meeting the buffer planting requirement. c. Fences and walls may be substituted with a landscaped earthen berm if the combination of berm and landscaping is not less than six feet in height from the elevation at the property line with approximately 100% opacity. The berm plantings must be • evergreen and may not be counted towards meeting the buffer planting requirement. Berms must be a minimum of four feet in height with a maximum slope of 3:1. Berms in excess of six feet in height shall have a maximum slope of 4:1 as measured from the exterior property line. d.The required height of fences or walls may be reduced if used in combination with an earthen berm or a landscaped earthen berm if the height of the screening is six feet from the elevation at the property line with approximately 100 percent opacity. The berm plantings must be evergreen and may not be counted towards meeting the buffer planting requirement. e.Walls may be substituted with fences if the required buffer yard area and plantings are doubled. Per Ordinance No. 2753 dated September 23, 2004 f. Walls and fences may be omitted if the required buffer yard area and plantings are tripled. Per Ordinance No. 2753 dated September 23, 2004 G. Maintenance and Replacement 1. Upon installation or protection of required landscape materials, appropriate measures shall be taken to ensure their continued health and maintenance. Required landscape areas and buffers shall be free of garbage and trash, weeds, pests, and disease. • Required plant materials that do not remain healthy shall be replaced consistently with these provisions. 2. All landscaping materials and/or fences, walls, or berms shall be maintained by the owner(s) of the property that was required to install such landscaping materials and/or fences, walls, or berms under this Section. 3. Any canopy tree removed or otherwise destroyed by the willful act or negligence of the property owner, tenant, or contractor shall be replaced by a tree of the same or larger caliper. • • H. Appeals i. Appeals of the terms of this Section, with the exception of Section G, Maintenance and Replacement, shall be to the Design Review Board (DRB). 2.An appeal shall be made within 30 days of the date of the notification of the decision by filing with the Administrator a notice of appeal specifying the grounds thereof. 3. The DRB may authorize on appeal alternative buffer standards for a specific property or a waiver to the Buffer Requirements of this Section when such standards or variance will not be contrary to the public interest where, owing to unique and special conditions not normally found in like areas, a strict enforcement of the provisions of the ordinance by the Administrator would result in unnecessary hardship, and so that the spirit of this Section shall be observed and substantial justice done. • A Jennifer Reeves -PLANNING & ZONING Pa e 1 `: • From: <ellaco@cox.net> To: <jreeves@cstx.gov> Date: 10/6/2005 10:08:49 AM Subject: PLANNING & ZONING We vigorously oppose opening Raintree Dr. The supposition that it will not increase traffic is wrong. Anyone coming home from the north and most of the west part of town will use Raintree. Why would they drive past Raintree all the way to Emerald Pkwy. to make a u-turn back to N. Forest? Raintree has a long curve that can be very dangerous when there are cars parked on both sides of the street. On weekend nights, there are many cars parked on both sides of the street. I assume these are student parties as it is always the same houses. There are many houses that face on Raintree so that when they have guests, the guests must park on the street. This significantly reduces the roadway and drivers have to be very careful. I am unable to attend the Commission meeting but sincerely hope that you will read and consider our concerns. Ella L. Colvin 2602 Calico Court 695-6815 • r~ Jennifer Reeves - P&Z - Thorou hfare at Raintree Pa e 1 From: To: Date: Subject: Cindy Dillard Jennifer Reeves 10/6/2005 4:09:34 PM P&Z -Thoroughfare at Raintree Please pass my comments to the P&Z Board. Good Evening Gentlemen, Unfortunately I am unable to attend the meeting tonight. Please take a few minutes to review my comments. Thank you for your time and attention. 1) Not one resident of Raintree has voiced approval of this thoroughfare plan. All the comments have been against it. Previous e-mails, comments and petition. Please put the interests of MANY against that of a few. 2)There are 27 homes facing Raintree, which doesn't sound like many unless your home is one of them. Mr. Arden is not proposing to build homes facing Raintree because he knows they have less value, which ours will if this thoroughfare plan is approved. 3) We have little or no crime because of limited access. Please check this with P.D. 4) Mr. Arden and the planners can find another access point for his development with out destroying a 25 year old established neighborhood, but of course this will cost him more. 5) Traffic is sometimes already dangerous when cars are parked on both sides of the curve. We are not congested but will be if you vote for this thoroughfare plan. 6) Mr. Arden stated at the last P&Z that "everyone would like to live on a secluded cul-de-sac but that just isn't possible." Well he lives on a cul-de-sac which he choose. The residents of Raintree ALSO CHOOSE. I work full time and have 2 children and have not had time to gather more signatures against this plan. I will have many more if and when this reaches City Council. With all due respect, I implore you to protect all the residents of Raintree who you represent. Please vote as if this were YOUR neighborhood and YOUR home. Thank you once again for your time and attention to this very important matter.
