MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 2, 2015
TO: Planning & Zoning Commission Members
FROM: Jennifer Prochazka, AICP, Principal Planner
jprochazka@cstx.gov
SUBJECT: UDO Amendment—"Northgate High-Density Dwelling Unit"
Case #15-00900067
Item: Public hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an
amendment to Chapter 12 - Unified Development Ordinance, Article 6 "Use
Regulations" Section 12-6.3 "Types of Use," and Article 11 "Definitions" Section 12-11.2
"Defined Terms," of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas,
regarding the addition of"Northgate High-Density Dwelling Unit."
Background: A "Multi-family Dwelling" is defined by the Unified Development Ordinance
(UDO) as "a residential structure providing complete, independent living facilities for
three (3) or more families or households living independently of each other and including
permanent provisions for living, sleeping, cooking, eating, and sanitation in each unit.
Condominiums are included in this definition."
Multi-family Dwellings are currently permitted in the Northgate zoning districts, however,
like all multi-family uses in College Station, they are limited to a maximum of four (4)
unrelated individuals residing together in each unit as a "family."
The Northgate Redevelopment Implementation Plan, adopted in 2003 and used as a
supplement to the City's Comprehensive Plan, calls for increased residential density and
housing type diversity and encourages infill and/or redevelopment of underutilized
residential sites. The Unified Development Ordinance states that Northgate is "intended
to be a unique, pedestrian-friendly, dense urban environment..."
Item Summary: In response to potential development opportunities in the Northgate
area, Staff proposes amendments to the UDO that would permit more than four (4)
unrelated individuals to reside together in a single-living unit. A definition of "Northgate
High-Density Dwelling Unit" is proposed to be added to the UDO permitting this
increased number of unrelated individuals, with six (6) proposed as a maximum density
per dwelling unit. Similar apartment-type structures intended for fewer than four (4)
unrelated individuals will remain permitted under the "Multi-family" use.

Additionally, the Use Table in the UDO is proposed to be modified by the addition of
"Northgate High-Density Dwelling Unit." The proposed use would be permitted in the
Northgate districts.
The UDO is proposed to be amended as follows:
Article 11. "Definitions"
Sec. 12-11.2. Defined Terms.
Northgate District definitions (applicable only to development in Northgate):
Northgate High-Density Dwelling: A residential structure providing complete,
independent living facilities for three (3) or more households, living independently
of each other and including permanent provisions for living, sleeping, cooking,
eating, and sanitation in each unit. Households in a Northgate High-Density
Dwelling include more than four(4) but not greater than six (6) unrelated
individuals.
Article 6. "Use Regulations"
Sec. 12-6.3. Types of Use.
C. Use Table
Northgate High-Density Dwellings permitted in NG-1, NG-2 and NG-3.
