Item No. 5.1.
1612 A & B Park Place Rezoning
Sponsor: Garrett Segraves, Staff Planner
Reviewed By CBC: Planning & Zoning Commission
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 boundaries from GS General Suburban to MH Middle Housing on
approximately 0.5 acres generally located at 1612 Park Place A & B. Case #REZ2025-000020 (Note:
Final action of this item will be considered at the November 13, 2025, City Council Meeting – Subject
to change).
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
Diverse and Growing Economy
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request.
Summary: This request is to rezone 0.494 acres of land located at 1612 Park Place A and 1612
Park Place B, from GS General Suburban to MH Middle Housing. Both lots are developed as a two-
story, 4-bedroom home with associated parking. The rezoning intends to increase the marketability of
the property and to allow for future development.
REZONING REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Whether the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map designates the subject property and
all surrounding properties as Mixed Residential. The Comprehensive Plan generally describes the
Mixed Residential land use designation as follows:
Areas appropriate for a mix of moderate-density residential development, including townhomes,
duplexes, small multifamily buildings (3-12 units), 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 district is to:
• Accommodate a walkable pattern of small lots, small blocks, and a well-connected street
pattern
• Accommodate streetscape features such as sidewalks, street trees, and lighting
• Encourage community facilities, parks, and greenways within neighborhoods
• Support neighborhoods with a mix of housing types and where larger or more dense housing
is located near community facilities or adjacent to commercial or neighborhood centers
The zoning districts generally appropriate for Mixed Residential land use include D Duplex, T
Townhouse, MH Middle Housing, and limited-scale single-family. The proposed zoning district of MH
Middle Housing would be in line with the Comprehensive Plan.
Page 10 of 34
2. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed zoning district will be appropriate in the
context of the surrounding area:
The property fronts Park Place, which is classified as a Local Street and is not on the City’s
Thoroughfare Plan. The properties to the North and East are zoned GS General Suburban and are
single-family. The properties to the South are zoned PDD Planned Development District and are also
single-family. The properties to the West are a mix of GS General Suburban zoning and the
previously mentioned PDD, both of which are single-family.
The MH Middle Housing zoning district is designed to be flexible and provide a variety of housing
options by-right.
The proposed zoning district is appropriate for the surrounding area as it would allow for a mix of
moderate-density residential development.
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 uses allowed within the proposed
zoning district. The site has adequate space to meet the minimal dimensional standards for MH
Middle Housing. There is no floodplain on the property.
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. Detention is required in accordance with the BCS guidelines. Drainage and any other
infrastructure required for the site development shall be designed and constructed in accordance with
the BCS Unified Design Guidelines.
The subject property has frontage to Park Place, which is designated as a local street and is not on
the City’s Thoroughfare Plan.
5. The marketability of the property:
Rezoning the property from GS General Suburban to MH Middle Housing would allow the lot to be
developed into a variety of housing options by right, making the property more marketable.

approximately 3.60 acres at 3768 McCullough Road, generally located northeast of the intersection
of Wellborn Road and McCullough Road. Case #REZ2025-000006 (Note: Final action of this item will
be considered at the November 13, 2025 City Council Meeting – Subject to change).
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
Diverse and Growing Economy
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the PDD Planned Development District request
and associated Concept Plan.
Summary: This request is to rezone approximately 3.60 acres of land being a portion of an unplatted
property generally located at 3768 McCullough Road from R Rural to PDD Planned Development
District with a base zoning of WC Wellborn Commercial. This property was annexed into the City of
College Station in 2011 and is currently an undeveloped portion of a church property. The applicant
intends to develop this property as an extension of the adjacent PDD use, which includes buildings,
driveways, detention, and landscape buffer as shown on the Concept Plan. The proposed
development is proposed to take access through the adjacent church driveway.
REZONING REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Whether the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan:
The subject property is currently designated on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use &
Character Map as Neighborhood Commercial and is located within the Wellborn Community Plan.
For the Neighborhood Commercial land use, the Comprehensive Plan provides the following:
Areas of commercial activities that cater primarily to nearby residents. These areas tend to be
smaller format than general commercial and located adjacent to major roads along the fringe of
residential areas.
The intent of the district is to:
• Accommodate limited commercial services compared to General Commercial.
• Encourage transitions in building height and mass when adjacent to residential neighborhoods.
• Support some residential uses that are compatible with the surrounding neighborhood character.
The zoning districts that are generally appropriate within the land use include: SC Suburban
Commercial and O Office zoning. Within the Wellborn District, limited to Wellborn Commercial
Zoning.
The Wellborn District Plan was adopted by City Council in October 2023. The Wellborn Community
Plan centers on the unique, rural character of the area as well as to preserve the character of
Page 19 of 34
Wellborn Community.
The proposed PDD Planned Development District uses a base zoning of WC Wellborn Commercial
that does not allow for self-storage uses, unless existing prior to 2011. The applicant has requested
to allow for this use as part of the PDD modifications.
2. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed zoning district will be appropriate in the
context of the surrounding area:
The adjacent existing land uses to the north and east are large lot single-family varying in size. Other
commercial uses are located along FM 2154 towards the intersection of McCullough. The property to
the south is an existing church, of which this property utilizes a portion of. To the west, the property is
currently vacant however was zoned PDD in 2020 for self-storage and warehouse uses. The
proposed development associated with the zoning change is appropriate for the surrounding area as
it would allow for an extension of the existing PDD.
3. Whether the property to be rezoned is physically suitable for the proposed zoning district:
The size and location of the subject property is suitable for a commercial development. The site has
adequate space to meet the minimal dimensional standards as set forth in the Unified Development
Ordinance, however they are proposing to take access to Wellborn Road via an access easement
through the adjacent property.
4. Whether there are available water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities
generally suitable and adequate for uses permitted by the proposed zoning district:
Wastewater will be provided by College Station Utilities. Water is provided by Wellborn SUD and fire
flow for the site will be sourced from an existing Wellborn SUD line located along Wellborn Road.
Drainage and all other infrastructure required with site development shall be designed and
constructed in accordance with the B/CS Unified Design Guidelines.
The subject property is located near the intersection of Wellborn Road and McCullough Road. The
designation of Wellborn Road is identified as a future 4-lane Major Arterial, while McCullough Road is
a future 2-lane Minor Collector on the Thoroughfare Plan. Currently Wellborn Road is constructed as
a 2-lane roadway, while the other is more narrow. With the rezoning to PDD it would likely increase
the potential traffic generated in comparison to the existing R Rural designation, however the
proposed use is expected to generate less than 150 trips in any peak hour. Therefore, a Traffic
Impact Analysis (TIA) was not required to be submitted with the application.
5. The marketability of the property:
The uses allowed by the proposed zoning district is marketable for the area. The applicant states that
the property is landlocked and has to be added to one of the adjacent properties in order to be viable
for development.
REVIEW OF CONCEPT PLAN
The Concept Plan provides an illustration of the general layout of the proposed building and parking
areas as well as other site related features.
In proposing a PDD, an applicant may also request variations to the general platting and site
development standards provided that those variations are outweighed by demonstrated community
benefits of the proposed development. The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following
review criteria as the basis for reviewing PDD Concept Plans:

List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change
necessary.
The area being requested for the rezoning is currently un-developed with a PUE for a city sewer line.
Indicate whether or not this zone change is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. If it is not,
explain why the Plan is incorrect.
A recent comp plan amendment was approved changing the land use to Neighborhood Commercial which
allows for this proposed PDD.
How will this zone change be compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby
property and with the character of the neighborhood?
There are currently only two residential homes on adjacent property with the closest being approximately 100
feet away and the second being over 480 feet from the property line. The proposed larger landscape buffer
along the perimeter of the development is designed to mitigate impacts to these homes.
Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the rezoning district requested.
Neighboring property is undeveloped, pasture land with a church from whom the property is being purchased
from. The PD is proposing a larger landscape buffer with a screening fence along the property line which will
mitigate any potential impacts to the rural zoning on neighboring properties.
Page 26 of 34
Page 2 of 4
Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
The current zoning is Rural and the property is currently undeveloped, pasture land. Agricultural uses are the
highest and best for this lot currently allowed by the zoning.
Explain the marketability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district.
This property is landlocked without direct access to a public road and is currently un-developed. The current
zoning is Rural which has no marketability. This area is growing and expanding with commercial
development, for which the Rural zoning doesn’t allow. By rezoning this property to match existing and
proposed developments along Wellborn road, this property will achieve its highest and best use.
List any other reasons to support this zone change.
N/A
Maximum Building Height.
25-feet
Proposed Drainage.
Currently, the property drains by sheet flow to the northwest property corner. With the proposed development,
onsite storm water piping and detention will collect and discharge stormwater at the same northwest corner
with a flow equal to or less than pre-development flows.
Variations Sought.
a. Allowed Uses
i. Wholesales/ Services
ii. Warehousing/ Distribution
iii. Self- storage
iv. Educational Facilities
b. Prohibited Uses
i. Commercial daycares
ii. Restaurants
c. Wellborn Commercial (WC) Non-Residential Architectural Standards, which includes facade
articulation, building entry design, architectural relief, and building materials will not apply to
this site as it does not front Wellborn Road and is screened by other development.
Page 27 of 34
Page 3 of 4
d. The minimum roof pitch requirements shall be reduced to three inches over twelve inches
(3/12).
e. Allow parking adjacent to residential uses if required by proposed use.
Community Benefits.
a. 30-foot landscaped buffer on 3 sides, which is larger than the required 20-feet, with the
following requirements:
i. A minimum of two (2) 1.25” caliper non-canopy trees per Fifteen (15) linear feet of
landscape buffer, which doubles the current requirement.
ii. A minimum of Two (2) two-inch caliper canopy tree per twenty-five (25) linear feet of
landscape buffer, which doubles the current requirement.
b. All buildings will be single-story and will not exceed 25-fee in height to the highest point on the
roof.
Sustained Stability.
Development of the project will be phased with additional buildings being built after construction of the first set
is completed and rented. In this way, development pace of the site will not out-run demand, resulting in un-
used or vacant buildings.
Conformity.
This project is adjacent to an existing PDD with similar uses and design. The other neighboring property is
undeveloped, pasture land and a church from whom the project site is being purchased from. There are
currently only two residential homes on adjacent property with the closest being approximately 100 feet away
and the second being over 480 feet from the property line of the additional property.
Compatibility with use.
As mentioned above, there is an existing PD, previously approved and under review by City staff for site plan
approval, which is adjacent to this site and has similar modifications and community benefits.
Access to Streets.
The existing driveway from Wellborn Road to the church will be shared with this developed.
Page 28 of 34
Page 4 of 4
Public Improvements.
No improvements required.
Public Health.
No perceived impact or change to Public Health. This is similar development to the adjacent property and
surround area.
Safety.
This will be a gated facility with access restricted to tenants only which will help reduce crime. Additional
there are wider drive aisles for moving van & trucks which will help improve access for fire and emergency
personnel should they be needed.
