Handouts: Revised Park Land Dedication Ordinance (approved by Council in January 2002
and goes into effect on July 25, 2002); Draft of Proposed Developer Incentives; Woodcreek,
Thomas, Gabbard, and Castlegate Parks site maps; a Developer Questionnaire.
Background: Vision Statement #4, Strategy 4.a "To plan for community growth, we will
maintain comprehensive parks planning processes and documentation."
The first proposal looked at cash incentives in the form of rebates back to the developer, for
street frontage that was over and above the usual requirement stated in the Park Land
Dedication Ordinance. The proposal had been presented to Parks Board and then to City
Council, and Council asked for some other ideas.
Meeting Purpose and Goal: Create incentives for developers to provide adequate
neighborhood parks.
Woodcreek, Thomas, Gabbard, and Castlegate Parks were used as examples to discuss the
ideal characteristics of a neighborhood park:
• Good access and visibility are the two key issues;
• Seven to ten (7-10) acres in size is preferable;
• Ideally some of the park will be fairly open and level ground;
• All residents in the neighborhood should be within a one-half mile, maximum walking
distance from the park.
The development community representatives present were asked to answer two questions in
order to help identify possible incentives:
1. As a developer, what actions can you take to provide larger neighborhood parks in locations
that will better serve residents?
2. Based upon the comments received from question #1, what potential incentives could the
City offer to encourage you to take the actions identified?
Discussion went around the table and the following suggestions were made:
• Better define what is considered detention/retention areas and other useable space, which is
not allowed to be used for park land dedication;
• Give some type of rebate to the developer for providing more street frontage than is required;
• Tie greenbelts, detention/retention, and parks together with a trail system to encourage
pedestrian traffic;
• Parks should enhance the visual character of the city and detention should count towards
some type of credit;
• Need to link/unite greenways and parks under one fund and one concept;
• Combine park land dedication with greenways and detention and give credit for it; - allow
some land in the 100-year flood plain; and
• Find a way to "share" property that is in a 100-year flood plain or greenbelt and give credits.
Highlights and Ideas for Incentives:
1. Develop a "credit" system, whereby developers would get credit for greenways, detention,
parks;
2. Development "trade-offs" to encourage the overall concept; make sure the city's process
doesn't discourage creative development;
3. Process for planning development starts early; improve the process for coordinating parks,
greenways, and detention; there needs to be a breakdown of the barriers between the
entities that control them;
5. Money - it is the money and the cost to developers, builders, homeowners, and the city
that's driving everyone; and
6. Make some aspects of development more economical, to redistribute the costs of the
project— could take the money and put towards parks.

College Station Parks & Recreation Department
Terms for Use of City Softball Fields for Non League Activities
Use Policy Statement:
The City of College Station recognizes that it is appropriate to subsidize youth athletic
activities. Such activities contribute to educational development and encourages leisure
literacy, which are increasingly important aspects of life. Youth is defined as all students
up to, and including, twelfth grade.
The City requires any group that desires to operate a league utilizing city facilities, to
enter into a contractual agreement (Facility Users Agreement) with the City. The City
recognizes that there are youth groups, who desire to utilize City facilities at a free or
discounted rate but do not operate under a "league" format. These user groups would not
function under the same set of guidelines established for youth groups that operate
leagues.
It is the desire of the City to support these special youth groups by offering some bench
for field usage. We feel that since these groups are often, if not always, selective in their
participation, almost always require a "try out to be placed on the team, and do not
operate under a "league" format, should probably not receive the same level of support as
other contracted league groups. The City does however recognize the importance of the
existence of such groups because they provide a source for advanced levels of play for the
serious, talented and dedicated youth participant.
Explanation of Fees and Benefits:
In January of 2000, the City of College Station implemented a surcharge fee of$5.00 per
individual/per league/per year or $75.00 per team/per league/per year. These funds are
placed into a special city account and used to pay for replacement, repair, or additions to
athletic fields and complexes. Implementing this fee was an effort to generate funds from
the individuals that utilize city facilities for their organized athletic activities to pay for
such items, rather than utilize bond funds for capital improvements.
Benefits to the user group(s): Upon receiving the $75.00 per team surcharge (as
reference above) plus an additional $125.00, for a total of $200.00, non league youth
teams will receive 30 "non-charged" rentals (without lig_hts), for practices, to last no
1011geI than two (2) hours per pr,ictice per day. Alternatively, upon receiving the S75.00
per team surcharge (as reference above) plus an additional S225.00_ For a total of i.,.3()0.0(),
non league Youth teams will receive 4r non-charged" rentals (without lighk)„ for
practices, to last no longer than two (2) hours per practice per day. Any practices over the
base number provided will be charged at the regular field rental rate as approved by the
City of College Station City Council. These rentals to be used before any paid rentals are
made. Lights for any reservation will be charged an additional five dollars ($5.00) per
two-hour rental. Reservations/rentals for both day and night must be made in person at
the Central Park Office. The Parks & Recreation Department will make arrangements to
have a City Employee turn lights on and off as needed at the Bee Creek and Lemontree
Softball Complexes. Two (2) weeks worth of reservations may be made at a time with a
minimum of 24 hours notice for the first reservation/rental. Fields will be available on
Wednesdays, and Sundays for rentals during the College Station Parks and Recreation
Department's regular youth softball league, with Friday's available unless the league
requires them for rainouts and makeup games. In these cases the league play will take
priority over rentals. The fields will be available any day of the week during non-league
times.
Practice "Round Robin" Tournaments:
No field preparations will be made for "scrimmages" or "round robin" type
tournaments (which are intended to serve as practices). Fees for the use of one (1) or
more field will be the same as the reservation/rental information mention above. It will
be required that the reservation/rental party notify the Central Parks Office, at the time
the reservation is made, as to the number of teams expected, so that proper notification
can be given to the Parks Operation Staff for additional trash runs.
Official Softball Tournaments:
Should any team(s) desire to host a tournament then all scheduled fees, requirements and
benefits would apply (see Softball Field Rental Information Agreement). An Official
Softball Tournament is defined as any Amateur Softball Association sanctioned fast pitch
or slow pitch tournament.
Revisions:
The City of College Station reserves the right to modify this policy from time to time as
deemed necessary by the Director of Parks and Recreation.

BRAZOS VALLEY
VETERANS MEMORIAL
MEMORANDUM
TO: Veterans Memorial Design Committee Members
FROM: Dr. P. David Romei, Chairman
DATE: 6 May 2002
SUBJECT: Veterans Memorial Update
The Board of Directors has approved a contract for the infrastructure
construction at the memorial site with Madison Construction Company.
Construction is underway and we anticipate its completion on Thursday,
31 October 2002.
The sculpture is at the bronzing foundry in New York and is on schedule
for completion by mid-July. I shall visit with the artist on site during the
latter part of this month and inspect the final wax model. Thereafter, the
bronze will be poured into the molds bringing our memorial to life. We
anticipate delivery during the first week of August.
The final blueprints and specifications for the site and its improvements
are in my office and available for review. Please feel free to visit the site
and invest yourselves in what shall surely be the most beautiful and
meaningful work of art in the Brazos Valley.
Arrangements for the dedication ceremony and activities related thereto
are underway. We shall keep you informed about future developments.
Thank you.
