Arsenio Rodrigues is currently pursuing the Ph. D. Degree in Architecture at TAMU. He received his Master of Architecture Degree from TAMU as well and his Bachelor of Architecture Degree from Goa University in India. Arsenio looks forward to working with the College Station neighbors and being involved with the community. He will be offering support to the neighborhoods that are pursuing Historic Preservation District designation and to neighborhoods that are forming new neighborhood associations. Besides interning with Neighborhood Services, Arsenio is currently teaching design studios at the College of Architecture. Previously, he also taught photography.

His long term goals include practicing and teaching architecture, and conducting research to find ways the built environment can contribute to the spiritual aspects of our health in our everyday contemporary places. In 2005, Arsenio was selected to serve on the TAMU Honor Council. He keeps busy participating with various campus organizations and volunteering at College Station and Bryan nursing homes by entertaining the residents with Elvis Presley dance music.

Page 11 Other Planning News Cont... Coming Soon - 2006 Comprehensive Plan Update! 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 regu- lation” and it does not affect existing approved zoning. Instead, it provides the foundation for making changes or developing new regulations that implement identified 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 current Comprehensive Plan has not been reviewed in its entirety since its adoption. Since 1997, College Station’s population has in- creased 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 opportunities are compatible with the vision; determine where and how the City should grow; provide guidance in making land use decisions; preserve 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 Comprehen- sive Plan Update, 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. Congratulations! Neighborhood Services has a proud history of volunteer service most recently evidenced by the WWII event last Sept. 3, 2005. Our volunteers are working for their community by helping to educate the community about preser- vation and striving to preserve its history. In recognition of these outstanding achievements, Neighborhood Services and Project HOLD are proud to announce the availability of the PRESIDENT’S VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARD, a prestigious national honor offered in recogni- tion of volunteer commitment. Established in 2003, this new AWARD is given by the President of the United States and honors individuals, families and groups who have demonstrated a sustained commitment to volunteer service over the course of 12 months. We have teamed with hundreds of organizations and businesses across the country to deliver this Award to our most outstanding volunteers. As a Certifying Organization of the PRESIDENT’S VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARD, we can nominate potential recipients and distribute the Award to those who meet or exceed the AWARD criteria. We are extremely proud to join the President of the United States in recognizing the volunteers who consistently take the time to make a difference in the lives of others. Volunteers strengthen America and inspire others to get involved. We are proud to honor our volunteers who are answering the call with this AWARD. (Continued on page 12) Page 12 Volume 7 Issue 2 Children, adults, families and groups can receive the AWARD and, given their ongoing service activity, many of our volunteers may already meet the requirements. To qualify for the PRESIDENT’S VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARD, volunteers simply submit a record of their service hours to Neighborhood Services, and we will verify the service and deliver the AWARD. Volunteer service hours are not limited to those performed on behalf of Neighborhood Services or Project HOLD. In fact, service hours can be accumulated through work on a variety of projects throughout the year. The only requirement is that the necessary hours be completed within 12 months; recipients can qualify for a new AWARD each year. We hope that our volunteers will strive to earn the PRESIDENT’S VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARD every year. Even if you’ve never volunteered be- fore, the AWARD is within your reach. In fact, the strength and success of our nation depends on every one of us taking an active role in the community where we live. You can also help strengthen America by asking your friends, families and neighbors to join you in helping your com- munity. Most people say ‘yes’ if asked to volunteer - all it takes is a personal request.” The PRESIDENT’S VOLUNTEER SERVICE AWARD is issued by the President’s Council on Service and Civic Participation - created by President George W. Bush to recognize the valuable contributions volunteers make to our nation.
