Case #REZ2025-000011 (Note: Final action of this item will be considered at the October 9, 2025, City Council Meeting – Subject to change) Relationship to Strategic Goals: • Diverse Growing Economy Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request. Summary: This request is to rezone 4.073 acres of land located at the corner of Yaupon Lane and Bradley Road, from R Rural to E Estate. The property is currently undeveloped, but the current owner plans to subdivide the property for use by his family. 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 Estate Residential. The Comprehensive Plan generally describes the Estate Residential land use designation as follows: Areas that have a low level of development activities. These areas are appropriate for very low- density residential lots of one-acre or greater lot sizes or average 20,000 square feet lots when clustered around open space. The intent of the district is to: • Support a wide range of lot sizes, long blocks, and curvilinear streets. • When establishing new residential areas or expanding existing developments, provide pedestrian and vehicular connectivity between adjacent developments. The zoning districts that are generally appropriate within the Estate Residential land use include: E Estate, R Rural, and MHP Manufactured Home Park. The proposed zoning district of E Estate would be in line with the Comprehensive Plan. 2. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed zoning district will be appropriate in the context of the surrounding area: The property has frontage to Bradley Road, which is classified as a Private Street and is not on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan. All adjacent properties are zoned R Rural and are currently developed as Page 12 of 414 large single-family lots. The E Estate zoning district is designed to provide land for low-density single-family lots. The proposed zoning district is appropriate for the surrounding area as it would allow for the development of large-lot single-family homes. 3. Whether the property to be rezoned is physically suitable for the proposed zoning district: The size and location of the subject property are suitable for uses allowed within the proposed zoning district. The site has adequate space to meet the minimal dimensional standards for E Estate. 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 Bradley Road, which is designated as a private street and is not on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan. 5. The marketability of the property: Rezoning the property from R Rural to E Estate would allow the lot to be subdivided, providing additional residential lots, making the property more marketable.

The Windham Tract Rezoning Sponsor: Bekha Blasingame, 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 boundary from R Rural to GS General Suburban, for approximately 237.65 acres, generally located on Greens Prairie Road, east of the intersection of Greens Prairie Road and W.S. Phillips Parkway. Case #REZ2025-000007 (Note: Final action of this item will be considered at the October 9, 2025 City Council Meeting – Subject to change). Relationship to Strategic Goals: Diverse & Growing Economy Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval. Summary: This request is to rezone approximately 237.65 acres of land, generally located on Greens Prairie Rd east of the intersection of Greens Prairie Rd and WS Phillips Pkwy, from R Rural to GS General Suburban. The tract proposed to be rezoned consists of an unplatted property and is currently undeveloped. The intent of the rezoning is to build a residential subdivision consisting of approximately 800 lots. The property was annexed in 2002 and was automatically assigned the zoning district of R Rural. Though the zoning district of R Rural allows for the use of single-family homes, it requires a much larger lot area and requires larger dimensional standards. This zoning request is in effort to allow the applicant to develop the property to the smaller standards of GS General Suburban. 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 as Suburban Residential. The Comprehensive Plan generally describes the Suburban Residential land use designation as follows: Single family residential areas that consist of low to moderate single family lots. These areas may also include limited townhomes, duplexes, other housing types, and some non-residential uses that are compatible with surrounding single-family areas. Development types tend to be highly consistent with a subdivision or neighborhood. The intent of the district is to: o Encourage community facilities, parks, and greenways within neighborhoods o Accommodate streetscape features such as sidewalks, street trees, and lighting o Support neighborhoods with a mix of housing types o When establishing new residential areas or expanding existing developments, provide pedestrian and vehicular connectivity between adjacent developments Page 22 of 414 The zoning districts that are generally appropriate for within the Suburban Residential land use include: RS Restricted Suburban and GS General Suburban. The goal of Chapter 3 of the Comprehensive Plan is to have viable and attractive neighborhoods that maintain long-term neighborhood integrity while collectively providing a wide range of housing options and other services for a diverse population. Chapter 3 states that new neighborhoods should be designed to fit within the existing fabric of the community and complement the natural environment. Sustainable neighborhoods should be developed with integrated parks that are easily and safely reached on foot or bicycle. Development policies should encourage the clustering of homes to reduce the environmental impacts on sensitive areas like floodplain. The proposed rezoning request from R Rural to GS General Suburban aligns with the Comprehensive Plan. 2. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed zoning district will be appropriate in the context of the surrounding area: The property has frontage to Greens Prairie Rd. Adjacent properties are zoned PDD Planned Development District to the north and northeast, RS Restricted Suburban to the east, R Rural to the southeast, the City of College Station’s Extraterritorial Jurisdiction to the south, and GS General Suburban to the west. There are smaller sections with frontage to Greens Prairie Rd to the west and northwest that are not a part of this rezoning request that will remain zoned R Rural. The adjacent properties to the north, east, and west are currently developed as residential subdivisions. The property to the northeast of the subject property and the smaller areas along Greens Prairie Rd are currently undeveloped. The properties to the south are located in the City’s ETJ. The GS General Suburban zoning district is intended to provide for single-family residential purposes and accessory uses and to accommodate sufficient, suitable residential neighborhoods, protected and/or buffered from incompatible uses, and provide the necessary and adequate facilities and services. The proposed zoning district is appropriate for the surrounding area as it would continue the use of suburban residential subdivisions. 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 uses allowed within the proposed zoning district. The site has adequate space to meet the minimal dimensional standards for GS General Suburban. 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 future extension needs of this development. The design of extensions to the City's Water and Wastewater systems will be reviewed with platting of the tract. Drainage and any other infrastructure required with site development shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the BCS Unified Design Guidelines. The subject property is generally located on Greens Prairie Rd. Right of Way alignments Page 23 of 414 and dedications would be determined during the preliminary plan. The subject tract has frontage on Greens Prairie Road and the future extension of W.S. Phillips Parkway and Oldham Oaks Avenue. W.S. Phillips Parkway has a thoroughfare classification of minor arterial, and Oldham Oaks Avenue is listed as a minor collector. Both will be extended with the platting of the tract and eventually intersect on the southeastern edge of the development. A traffic impact analysis (TIA) has been completed with this project with a total build out estimated for 2035. The site’s assumed trip generation and traffic mitigation recommendations outlined in the TIA will be fulfilled as buildout happens. 5. The marketability of the property: The existing zoning of R Rural does not comply with the Future Land Use of Suburban Residential and the applicant states the current zoning is not suitable for the type of development the City intends for this area. However, the proposed zoning district would allow for greater density of single family homes, making it more marketable. Budget & Financial Summary: N/A Attachments: 1. Aerial and Small Area Map 2.

The tract is currently vacant and proposes residential development with a variety of lot widths. The variation in lot width will allow for a range of homes at different prices points, appealing to more buyers in the housing market. Indicate whether or not this zone change is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. If it is not, explain why the Plan is incorrect. This rezoning request is in compliance with the College Station Comprehensive Plan. The Future Land Use and Character map calls for this area to be Suburban Residential, which General Suburban zoning complies with. How will this zone change be compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood? Residential is suitable for this tract as the Comprehensive Plan calls for residential in this area. Suburban, large lot and PDD residential are immediately adjacent to this rezoning request. As this project is proposing solely single-family residential within the project boundary, it will conform to nearby uses. The project also proposes to extend pedestrian improvements that currently exist in nearby neighborhoods. Page 28 of 414 Page 2 of 2 Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the rezoning district requested. The proposed General Suburban zoning will serve as a transition from the PDD to the north, large lot residential (within ETJ) to the south, and Restricted Suburban to the east. General Suburban zoning exists to the west of the tract. Explain the suitability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district. The current zoning district, Rural (R), does not allow for suburban type residential development as called for by the Future Land Use and Character map. The current zoning is not suitable for the type of development the City intends for this area. Explain the marketability of the property for uses permitted by the current zoning district. The frontage on Greens Prairie Road, which provides quick and direct access to William Fitch and Highway 6, along with the variety of lots widths make this a marketable area for new residential development. List any other reasons to support this zone change. New housing stock for College Station, improved drainage in the immediate area, and compliance with the Comprehensive Plan.

Removal of The Planning and Zoning Commission as Designated Impact Fee Advisory Committee Sponsor: Carol Cotter Reviewed By CBC: N/A Agenda Caption: Public Hearing, presentation, discussion, and possible action regarding an ordinance amending Appendix A, Unified Development Ordinance, Article 2, “Development Review Bodies,” Section 2.2, “Planning and Zoning Commission,” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, regarding the removal of the Planning and Zoning Commission’s designation as the Impact Fee Advisory Committee. Case #ORDA2025-000008. (Note: Final action on this item is scheduled for the September 25, 2025 City Council Meeting – subject to change.) Relationship to Strategic Goals: • Financially Sustainable City, • Core Services and Infrastructure, • Diverse Growing Economy, and • Improving Mobility Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of this Ordinance amendment. Summary: In its regular session earlier this summer, the 89th Texas Legislature passed SB 1883, amending Chapter 395 of The Local Government Code. The bill revised requirements relating to the implementation and administration of impact fees, including removal of the authority of a political subdivision’s Planning and Zoning Commission to act as the Impact Fee Advisory Committee. Currently, the Planning and Zoning Commission, with the addition of representative ad HOC members, is the designated Impact Fee Advisory Committee. This Ordinance amendment is the first step in aligning our local code with the new state law and ensures compliance moving forward. Budget & Financial Summary: Attachments: 1.

OVERVIEW AND PURPOSE College Station’s Comprehensive Plan, adopted in May 2009 and updated in October 2021, serves as a statement of the community’s vision for the future. It provides goals, policies, and actions on a broad range of topics and provides strategic direction to guide the City’s physical growth while maintaining a high quality of life. As a long-range document with an anticipated life span of 20 years, the Comprehensive Plan calls for an Evaluation and Appraisal Report to be prepared every five years. This report was created by City staff with input from citizens, City leaders, various City departments, the Planning and Zoning Commission, and other appropriate boards and commissions. The purpose of this report is to serve as a “checkup” on the Comprehensive Plan by identifying the Plan’s successes and shortcomings and recommending appropriate modifications in response to changing conditions. This report and its associated appendices: • Provides a review of the basic conditions and assumptions related to the City’s growth. • Evaluates implementation progress related to the Plan’s goals, strategies, and action items. • Summarizes the public engagement process and results used to inform the recommendations in this report. • Provides recommendations for modifications to the Plan’s policies, action items, and structure to ensure continued alignment with the community’s vision. 2. PROCESS This 5-year Evaluation and Appraisal process, branded the Five Years Forward project, began in February 2025 and concluded in September 2025. A six-member group called the Comprehensive Plan Evaluation Committee (CPEC) met throughout the process to provide input and feedback to guide both the evaluation process and final recommendations. The CPEC was composed of three Planning and Zoning Commissioners and three City Councilmembers. Public outreach activities: • Community Planning Survey 2025 (135 responses) • Focus Groups – Medical, Housing, and Business & Economy sectors • Public Meetings & Workshops – Seminar Supper, Open House, City Council public hearing • Informal Events – Three Food Truck Wednesdays • Digital & Media Outreach – Blog, radio, podcast, website, social media, and public notices Other community stakeholder input activities: • Boards & Commissions Survey and feedback discussions • City Councilmember structured interviews • Staff implementation team discussions Details of the community and stakeholder input processes can be found in Appendix C: Engagement Report. Page 217 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION & APPRAISAL REPORT |4 3. CHANGING CONDITIONS In 2024, City staff prepared an assessment of existing conditions to provide context for the Comprehensive Plan evaluation. This assessment, presented in Appendix A: 2024 Existing Conditions Report, analyzes population growth and projections, demographic and socioeconomic trends, existing land use, and other patterns of physical development. The report draws primarily on the latest estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau, along with data from various City databases. As the City looks to the future, significant conditions and trends include: Demographics & Growth •The population of College Station reached 128,370 in 2023, reflecting a 7.9% increase since 2019. •The Census Bureau estimated 48,615 College Station residents were enrolled in college or graduate school in 2023,representing about 38% of the city’s total population (ACS 2023). Economic Development •The employment rate in the College Station-Bryan MSA has increased by 16.2% since 2018, outpacing state and nationalaverages. •The unemployment rate remains low at 3.2% (2023), reflecting a stable job market. •The housing market has seen rising home prices, with the median home price of $322,903 in 2023. Land Use •Residential land use dominates at 45.54%, with single-family homes making up the largest share of the residential category. •Urban residential and mixed residential land uses account for 15.3% of future land use. •Between 2019-2023, multi-family led in units constructed totaling 2,963 units. Transportation & Mobility •Currently, the city maintains 57.7 miles of bike lanes, 21.2 miles of bike routes, 387.7 miles of sidewalks, and 40.6 miles ofmultiuse paths, supporting active transportation options. •Roadway improvements and infrastructure investments are planned to accommodate growth. 4. PLAN SUCCESSES The Comprehensive Plan’s Implementation chapter establishes a framework for ongoing reporting and evaluation. Each year, the City produces a summary report highlighting notable progress and development activity. Every five years, a more comprehensive evaluation (such as this report) is conducted and often results in amendments to the Plan. As part of this evaluation and appraisal process, a 5-Year Implementation Progress Report (Appendix C) was completed to assess the status of each action item in the Comprehensive Plan. Staff used status categories from the City’s implementation tracking software, AchieveIt, to classify each item as On Track, Off Track, At Risk, Not Started, or Achieved. Over the past five years, the City celebrated several key programming achievements and capital project milestones. To encourage responsible growth and support community character, staff developed the Northeast Gateway Redevelopment Plan (2023) and the Wellborn District Plan (2023). To address the City’s growing need for affordable housing, staff collaborated with a citizen steering committee to create the 2024 Housing Action Plan. In 2024, two major tree-planting projects added 117 trees in Bee Creek Park and Tarrow Park, helping to mitigate the urban heat island effect. Additionally, the City broke ground for Fire Station #7 in 2025, ensuring the continued provision of exceptional services.

Edits include internal and external policy references, reorganization, capitalization, acronyms, numbers, tables, and images. No policy changes were made with this ordinance amendment.” Off-Street Parking Requirements (2023) Amends Sections 5.8.B Northgate by adding tandem parking as a design option for structured parking garages. Amends Section 7.2.J Bicycle Facilities by removing bicycle requirements and placing them in Section 7.3. And finally amends Section 7.3 by adding in bicycle parking, updating minimum and maximum ratios, removing minimum parking requirements from redevelopment areas, and adding additional reductions to parking requirements. Lot-by-Lot Grading (2023) Creates a requirement that single family construction must account for, and provide, lot grading information to mitigate drainage issues between properties upon redeveloped and initial development. Conditional Use Permit for Nightclubs, Bars, Taverns (2023) Amends Conditional Use processing, specifically giving the UDO Administrator the ability to approve minor changes to a Conditional Use permit, stating the duration of a Conditional Use permit, giving the City the ability to temporarily suspend a Conditional Use for public health and safety reasons, clarifying how a violation of the terms of a Conditional Use permit is unlawful, and establishing a process to revoke a Conditional Use permit. Sunsetting Small Area Plans (2022) Amends the Dimensions, Access, and Location section of the Off-Street Parking Standards to be applicable to properties that are designated as Redevelopment Areas on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map. Sidewalks (2022) Amends Sidewalks section of the Subdivision Regulations to reduce the number of zones for fee in lieu of sidewalk construction to four, adds an appeals process, allows staff to require fee in lieu, and requires sidewalks along thoroughfares in rural context areas. Single-Family Overlay Amendment (ROO & NCO) (2022) Amends the single-family overlay application process for the Restricted Occupancy Overlay (ROO) and Neighborhood Conservation Overlay (NCO) to allow multiple contiguous phases of original subdivisions to apply jointly, submit one application, and pay one application fee. Middle Housing (2022) Creates a new Middle Housing zoning district, which allows for a flexible mix of housing types between single-family homes and multiplexes and establishes development standards for each housing type. Shared Housing (2022) Creates a new use known as Shared Housing, which allows for more than four unrelated persons to occupy a single dwelling unit, establishes which zoning districts the use is allowed in, establishes development standards for the use, and eliminates the Northgate High Density Dwelling Unit use. Cluster Subdivisions (2022) Amends the Cluster Developments section of the Unified Development Ordinance to reduce the minimum lot width and depth of a residential lot and increase the amount of required open space. Page 222 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION & APPRAISAL REPORT |9 Parkland Dedication (2022) Eliminates the distinction between community and neighborhood parks for dedication purposes, reduces the number of parkland dedication zones to four, adds an appeals process, allows developers of private parks to receive up to a 25% credit, and updates the dedication and fee amounts. Zoning Board of Adjustment Power, Duties, and Processes (2022) Updates the processes involved with written interpretations, variances, and administrative appeals to align with H.B. 1475 and H.B. 2497 adopted in the 86th and 87th Texas Legislatures, respectively, and amends the Unified Development Ordinance’s list of power and duties of the Board to reflect all power and duties that have been assigned to the Board throughout the Code of Ordinances. Shared Mobility (2022) Renames the ordinance from Dockless Bike Share Program to Shared Micromobility, allows shared electric micromobility devices (bicycles and scooters), includes an abandonment fee if an operator leaves the community without taking their devices and further defines geofence zones. It also now includes requirements for cyber liability insurance, a 15-mph speed limit for devices, rebalancing, parking hubs and devices must be locked to a bicycle rack or operator designated parking area. Comprehensive Plan Notifications (2021) Requires mailed notices for property-specific Comprehensive Plan Amendments to the Future Land Use & Character Map, as well as neighborhood meetings for these proposed amendments. Limits the timeframe in which Comprehensive Plan Amendment applications may be submitted during major Comprehensive Plan updates and evaluations. Restricted Occupancy Overlay (ROO) (2021) Creates a new overlay zoning option for single-family subdivisions to restrict occupancy to no more than two unrelated persons. An application for a ROO requires a majority (50% + one) of a subdivision’s property owners to sign a petition supporting the application. A legacy (grandfather) clause allows existing occupancy levels up to four unrelated persons to continue under certain conditions. The city’s existing restrictions of no more than four unrelated persons remain for all areas without the overlay. Related and Family Definition (2020) Addresses public concern regarding the restrictive nature of the definitions of “family” and “related” and modernize the ordinance in accordance with legal precedent. The proposed amendment creates a more permissive definition of “family” that removes language referring to degrees of consanguinity (blood relation) and affinity (marriage relation), clarifies specific familial types, and codifies a new method of counting relationships to ensure a maximum of one family unit and three unrelated individuals will be allowed per dwelling unit. Replat Notification Requirements (2020) Adds the option to Specific Notice Requirements for the City to notify neighboring property owners of the Planning & Zoning Commission’s approval of certain replats in lieu of holding public hearings for the replats. This option was adopted by the 86th Texas Legislature in response to concerns that public hearings were required for replats that state statute requires the Planning & Zoning Commission to approve. Page 223 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION & APPRAISAL REPORT |10 PART II: GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS A. Stronger emphasis on sustainability and environmental resilience. Goals and action items related to sustainability, environmental resilience, and natural resource stewardship are incorporated in most chapters of the Plan. However, while some chapters include strong contextual narrative detailing the City’s specific strategies and actions in these areas, others do not. • Chapter 2 (Distinctive Places) and Chapter 8 (Managed Growth) should include more detailed narrative on the City’s efforts to promote environmental stewardship and resilience, particularly in the context of growth and ongoing development/redevelopment. B. Add an “as of” date to all maps. While most maps in the Comprehensive Plan remain unchanged after the Plan is adopted, certain maps are updated on a rolling basis. Maps that are regularly updated, such as Map 2.2 Future Land Use and Character, are available on the City’s website and may differ from the version included in the adopted Plan document. • To avoid potential confusion, all maps in the adopted Plan should include a clearly visible “as of” date. C. Remove repeated or redundant narrative throughout the Plan. Some content is unnecessarily repeated across chapters, which reduces the Plan’s overall clarity and conciseness. To improve readability, duplicated narrative should be removed where it does not add distinct value. • Example: Chapter 8, pp. 138–141. This section repeats content directly from Chapter 7: Exceptional Services. The intended purpose of its use in Chapter 8 is to emphasize that infrastructure to support high-quality City services must keep pace with growth. This point can be effectively conveyed in a brief summary, rather than repeating several pages of identical text from the previous chapter. D. Incorporate strategies to ensure rapid response to changes in technology. Stakeholders did not express concern that the City was lagging in response to technological changes, and they did not call for specific changes to the Plan to address this recommendation. Stakeholders simply emphasized that rapid changes in technology should be considered as the City plans for the future, particularly in terms of municipal service delivery and transportation/micro-mobility options. Page 224 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION & APPRAISAL REPORT |11 PART III: RECOMMENDATIONS BY CHAPTER CHAPTER 1: PLAN FOUNDATION Recommendations for Chapter 1 are administrative in nature and primarily related to updating contextual narrative and outdated data. • Update Background Section. • Update Planning Process and Public Participation. ◦Shorten and summarize text related to 10-Year Update and add information on the current 5-Year Evaluation Process. • Update Figure 1.2 - Replace “District & Neighborhood Plans” with “Small Area Plans.” • Update the summary of existing conditions with current data. • Update Chapter 10 description to explain the difference between ongoing action items and strategic action items. CHAPTER 2: DISTINCTIVE PLACES • Update Table 2.1 Summary of Future Land Use Acreages. • Update the Planning Areas section to remove retired small area plans and update descriptions to reflect planning activities since the adoption of the Plan. • Update Map 2.1 to reflect changes to the Planning Areas. ◦Remove retired Plans (Medical District). ◦Expand Harvey Road Redevelopment planning area to set northern boundary at Dominik Drive. ◦Update Lick Creek Corridor Planning Area to remove the small portion that projects to the southwest. • Update to Map 2.2 - Future Land Use & Character. ◦Incorporate any Future Land Use changes since the last Plan update. ◦Convert the Future Land Use designation to Parks & Greenways for any parkland dedicated to the City since the last Plan update. ◦Remove the Future Land Use designation from any thoroughfares constructed since the last Plan update. • Continue to enhance City outreach and communication efforts to help residents and property owners better understand land use vs. zoning and how the Comprehensive Plan shapes development decisions. CHAPTER 3: STRONG NEIGHBORHOODS • Update and consolidate existing conditions data to highlight housing demand, availability, affordability, and quality. • Edit references to obsolete zoning tool: Restricted Occupancy Overlay (ROO). ◦Incorporate narrative on the City’s efforts to meet the community’s diverse housing needs through the adoption of the Middle Housing MH zoning district. This section should also provide background on the development of ROOs and Housing Occupancy Overlays (HOOs), as well as state legislation that eliminated the City’s authority to use these tools. • Incorporate narrative on the development and adoption of the Housing Action Plan (2024), as well as its ongoing implementation guided by the Housing Plan Advisory Committee. • Include the term student housing or make it clear that housing for students should be a significant consideration in the housing needs of the community. • Continue to explore new tools for neighborhood conservation and density management to balance growth pressures with community character. Page 225 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION & APPRAISAL REPORT |12 CHAPTER 4: PROSPEROUS ECONOMY The recommendations related to Chapter 4 stem from stakeholder concerns that the City’s economic development strategies are either hidden or appear to be deprioritized within the Comprehensive Plan. Rather than drafting separate goals and strategies that may not align precisely with the Economic Development Master Plan, it is recommended that additional narrative and action items from the master plan be incorporated directly into the body of Chapter 4. • Following the adoption of the updated Economic Development Master Plan (anticipated in late 2025), incorporate its goals, strategies, and action items into the body of Chapter 4, include strategies to: ◦Attract businesses that add value to the community and clarity around the types of businesses the City is pursuing. ◦Address changing workforce development needs with an emphasis on local talent retention and jobs that do not necessarily require a four-year degree. CHAPTER 5: ENGAGING SPACES Feedback related to parks, recreational spaces, and natural areas was generally positive, with stakeholders expressing a strong desire to see continued prioritization of efforts that support these valued community spaces and programs. • Update Map 5.1 ◦Include new parks and areas of parkland dedication. • Edit section “Coordination, Collaboration, and Adequate Funding” to include the City’s approach to maintaining high quality parks through micro-capital investments. • Continue to ensure planning efforts consider ways to support the park system with a focus on connectivity to parks, trail expansions, and preservation of natural areas in growth areas. CHAPTER 6: INTEGRATED MOBILITY • Remove Map 6.1 ◦This map is intended to illustrate how the City’s transportation network could evolve by 2045; however, it does not dictate how roads must be built as development occurs—that is determined by the functional classification of roads (Map 6.3). This distinction has caused confusion among developers and residents. As a result, it is recommended that the map be removed. • Evaluate appropriateness of the Thoroughfare Plan and recommend any necessary amendments in the following areas: ◦Pebble Creek Parkway – During the evaluation process, residents of the Pebble Creek neighborhood expressed concerns regarding the proposed extension and expansion of Pebble Creek Parkway, as shown in the adopted Thoroughfare Plan. Residents stated that any extension or expansion of Pebble Creek Parkway would negatively impact their neighborhood and overall quality of life. The Comprehensive Plan Evaluation Committee recommended that the appropriateness of this segment of the Thoroughfare Plan be evaluated. • Continue to expand pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, transit service, and regional mobility improvements. ◦Mircomobility trends that include e-scooters and related electric personal transportation devices should be addressed in the Active Transportation Master Plan (Update to the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Greenways Master Plan, May 2018). CHAPTER 7: EXCEPTIONAL SERVICES Stakeholders expressed overall satisfaction with City services and did not recommend specific changes to this chapter of the Plan. However, across most stakeholder groups, there was strong emphasis on the City remaining vigilant in maintaining high service levels as the population grows, as well as ensuring the long-term availability of water and reliable electricity. • Continue to ensure the Plan and associated Master Plans accurately project out future service level adjustments to keep pace with growth and available resources, particularly for electric and water services. Page 226 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION & APPRAISAL REPORT |13 CHAPTER 8: MANAGED GROWTH Recommendations for Chapter 8 primarily address state legislation that has further limited Texas municipalities’ ability to manage orderly growth and development in areas surrounding the community. • Update the chapter to reflect legislative changes (SB 2038, 88th Legislative Session) that allow property owners to petition for release from the ETJ. ◦Include discussion of the potential for future annexation of substandard developments. ◦Include discussion on the impact new ETJ development may have on existing ETJ residents. • Remove Map 8.1 & Table 8.1 ◦Due to several state legislative changes since 2019, this map and table are obsolete and no longer reflective of the City’s approach to managing and anticipating growth. • Clarify how the 11 criteria for annexation (listed under Table 8.1) would be used to evaluate a request for voluntary annexation. CHAPTER 9: COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS While no changes to the City’s current strategy or approach to partnerships were recommended, stakeholders across multiple feedback channels emphasized that maintaining collaborative relationships should remain a high priority, particularly with Texas A&M University. • Continue to maintain strong intergovernmental partnerships and stay agile to legislative changes impacting planning tools. CHAPTER 10: PLAN IMPLEMENTATION • Clearly outline in the Comprehensive Plan and UDO Annual Review which action items have dedicated funding sources and specify their funding timeframes. • Update Table 10.1 Action Plan & Funding Sources ◦Re-evaluate the category each action item is sorted into: (1) Ongoing and (2) Strategic; add text that explains the difference between the two categories ◦Action Item 3.12 is repeated in the Implementation Plan; replace second entry with action item 3.13. ◦Rewrite action items: ▪To combine items that are essentially the same in terms of desired outcome and implementation. ▫Example: Action Item 9.3 & 9.5 are assigned to the City Manager’s Office and both focus on maintaining a consistent relationship with the university through ongoing meetings and committees. In each reporting update, staff provide almost identical information for both items, indicating that they are essentially the same in implementation. ▪To clarify the item’s intent and align with specific staff responsibilities for implementation. ▫Example: Action Item 5.1 is carried out by City Parks & Recreation staff through sports and special events programming. However, the current wording includes three parts, also involving Economic Development & Tourism and promoting special districts as places to live, work, and play. Staff consider this action item to represent two distinct tasks that should be separated and assigned to the appropriate City departments. Page 227 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EVALUATION & APPRAISAL REPORT |14 ◦Reassign action items: ▪To align with updates to the organizational structure or naming conventions. ▫Dissolution of the Community Services Department: Action items previously assigned to the Community Services Department should be redistributed to Planning & Development Services, the Fire Department, and Economic Development. ▪To accurately reflect the department leading implementation of the action item ▫Example: Action Item 2.7 - Reassign this action item to the Planning & Development Services Department. In practice, the planning department reviews development plans to ensure required parks and mobility connections are incorporated during development. The implementation plan should be updated to reflect this practice. ▫Example: Action Item 9.6 – Reassign this action item to Neighborhood Services. In the implementation plan, this action item is assigned to both Community Services and Neighborhood Services, while in the project management software it is assigned solely to Community Services. However, both departments agree that this initiative is led and managed by Neighborhood Services.

The Existing Conditions Report is updated approximately every five years to assess the changing conditions in the community and inform future planning efforts. The 2024 Existing Conditions Report provides a snapshot of the current conditions that exist in College Station between 2019 and 2023. This report includes current conditions and trends for the following key areas: local context, natural environment, demographics, economic development, land use, public facilities, and transportation. The city looks at these key areas holistically to determine the appropriate expectations and direction of the Comprehensive Plan, including its implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. INTRODUCTION 3 Page 232 of 414 Location College Station is a city in Brazos County, situated at the eastern edge of the Central Texas region. Located in the center of the Texas Triangle, College Station is within a three-hour drive of five of the nation’s 20 largest cities: Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Austin, and Fort Worth. (Figure 1). College Station is positioned along State Highway 6 running north and south and in near proximity to State Highway 21 running west and east. Commuting to the larger cities (especially the Houston and Austin metro areas) and/ or telecommuting from College Station is an increasing reality for residents. The City encompasses approximately 51.2 square miles and has an Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) of 160.87 square miles. In 2018, when the City’s population exceeded 100,000 residents, the City’s ETJ expanded in accordance with Chapter 42 of the Texas Local Government Code. Currently, the City’s ETJ extends five miles from the City limits, except where it abuts the City of Bryan and where the two cities have negotiated their ETJ’s. The City shares a portion of its northern city limit line with the City of Bryan, and together the two cities form the core of the College Station-Bryan Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). The College Station-Bryan MSA is made up of Brazos, Burleson, and Robertson Counties and is home to approximately 278,000 residents. It is the 14th largest MSA in Texas and ranks fifth in the state for percent change in population, showing an 18.6% growth in population between 2012 and 2022 (Table 1).

In the fall of 2023, 68,115 students attended the College Station campus1. Texas A&M University is the oldest public institution of higher education in Texas, and the Texas A&M University Foundation had over $3.2 billion dollars of endowment in 2023. The university has a triple designation as a land, sea, and space grant institution, reflecting the broad scope of the research endeavors it brings to the city, including ongoing projects funded by agencies such as NASA, the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the Office of Naval Research.

Because of the school’s isolation, school administrators provided facilities for those who were associated with the College and the campus became the focal point of community development. The area was designated “College Station, Texas” by the Postal Service in 1877, who derived the name from the train station located to the west of the campus. Growth of both the community and College influenced residents’ desire to create a municipal government. The City of College Station was incorporated in 1938 as a result of a petition by 23 men representing on and off-campus interests to the Board of Directors of Texas A&M. College Station witnessed growth to the north, east and south during the 1940s; however, the city’s status as a general law city limited officials’ ability to annex territory. Without a city charter, the council could only annex property in areas where residents petitioned for inclusion into the city limits. While the home rule amendment from 1912 allowed Texas cities with at least 5,000 inhabitants the legal right to compose and amend their own charters, College Station did not meet the required population threshold until the late 1940s. The City was the first general law city in the state to employ a City Manager in the 1940s and employed a “business manager” before that. The 1950 Census recorded College Station’s population at 7,268, and on January 8, 1952, residents voted 220-11 to adopt a home rule charter with a council- manager form of government. The City first adopted zoning regulations in 1940, shortly after incorporation, to encourage orderly and desired growth of the City. The City began formal planning for growth and development in the 1960s. The Comprehensive Plan The City of College Station aims to be a vibrant, forward-thinking, knowledge-based community, that promotes the highest quality of life for its residents and visitors. City leaders, stakeholders, and staff strive toward creating distinctive places, strong neighborhoods, a prosperous economy, engaging spaces, integrated mobility, exceptional services, managed growth, and collaborative partnerships. This vision and associated aspirations are laid out in the City’s Comprehensive Plan. Figure 2: City Aspirations 5 Page 234 of 414 College Station’s third Comprehensive Plan was originally adopted in May 2009 after thousands of hours of citizen participation. The plan covered a 20-year horizon and guided the city’s growth and development. The 2009 Comprehensive Plan was conceived as a “living document” and recommended that the City regularly evaluate and update the Plan as conditions change in the community. In 2019, City leadership and staff launched the 10-year evaluation of the plan – branded The Next 10 – that engaged over 800 citizens and stakeholders across the community and culminated in the 10- Year Evaluation & Appraisal Report. The report, officially adopted by the City Council in October 2020, recommended modifications to the Comprehensive Plan in response to changing conditions. Throughout 2021, City staff implemented the recommended changes which included revisions to goals, policies, actions, narrative, and maps, as well as the maps in associated master plans. The City Council adopted the updated Comprehensive Plan in October 2021. Recognitions and Rankings In recent years, College Station has received many national recognitions and rankings in a variety of economic and social categories. Since 2019, College Station has gradually risen in the ranking for many quality-of-life metrics related to public schools, raising a family, and retirement. The City of College Station is also recognized as a high performing organization by several national accreditation agencies. Currently the City is among a small group of municipalities in Texas to simultaneously have national accreditations in police, fire, public safety communications, parks and recreation, water, and public works. The City of College Station boasts a long history of planning excellence. In 2024, the City was recognized for the 18th year by the Richard R. Lillie FAICP Planning Excellence Program. This program recognizes municipalities that take a wholistic approach to community planning. The City is also known for its award- winning Comprehensive Plan, which was awarded the 2022 Comprehensive Plan Award by the Texas Chapter of the American Planning Association and the Central Texas section of the Texas APA Chapter. These two awards recognized the City’s Comprehensive Plan for advancing “the science and art of planning.” 6 Page 235 of 414 NATURAL ENVIRONMENT Climate and Weather Located about 367-feet above sea level, College Station has a subtropical and temperate climate. The winters are mild with periods of low temperatures that usually last less than two months (Figure 3). Snow and ice are rare, but several winter storms, including 2021 Winter Storm Uri, have changed the average snowfall. Summers are hot and humid with the primary variation in weather being occasional rain showers (Figure 3).

Most of the city is comprised of loamy soil that has high shrink-swell, potentially creating challenges to foundation work necessary for urban development. Land around the floodplains is predominantly sandy and loamy, also impacting the shrinking and swelling of the soil. The floodplains consist of loamy and clayey soils that are not considered appropriate for urban development (See Figure 4). 052.5 Miles BRAZOS COUNTY SOILS ROBERTSONCOUNTY MADISONCOUNTY GRIMESCOUNTY WASHINGTONCOUNTY BURLESONCOUNTY UPLAND SOILS STREAM TERRACE SOILS FLOODPLAIN SOILS DATA SOURCE: USDA COLLEGESTATIONCOLLEGESTATION BRYANBRYAN Ecoregion College Station is in the East Central Texas Plains, also known as the Post Oak Savannah or the Texas Claypan Area. The terrain of the Post Oak Savannah ranges from nearly flat to irregular rolling plains, and the landscape is moderately dissected by a low density of streams, flowing into several broad river systems. The City of College Station is flanked by the Brazos River to the southwest and Navasota River to the east, with the natural topography ranging from gently hilly in the center of town to relatively level terrain along the Brazos and Navasota River floodplains. The undeveloped landscape is characterized by a mosaic of post oak woodland and grassland. Drought, grazing, and fire are the primary natural processes that have affected this ecoregion over time. Historically, this region would have experienced frequent low-intensity fire, maintaining the savannah structure with large mature trees and an understory of grasses. The combination of fire suppression and heavy livestock grazing has increased the cover of low-growing woody plants with poor fire-resistance, particularly Eastern Red Cedar and Honey Mesquite.

The Lower Brazos Region encompasses approximately 23,442 square miles and includes 30 major lakes and reservoirs. The Lower Brazos River runs west of College Station, along the border between Brazos County and Burleson County, on its way to the coast, where it enters the Gulf of Mexico near Lake Jackson and Freeport. A network of waterways exists throughout the City of College Station. The largest is Carter Creek, with Wolf Pen Creek, Bee Creek, Lick Creek, Spring Creek, and Alum Creek running into it. There are approximately 3,959.30 acres of floodplain in the City limits, which accounts for 8.3 % of the city’s land area. The City employs development standards, future land use planning, and zoning provisions to protect and preserve the natural function of the floodplains. The future land use designation of Natural & Open Areas and the zoning district of Natural Areas Protected (NAP) are used to conserve natural areas and provide conveyance of floodwaters. Currently, 87.7 acres of floodplains are preserved in College Station through Natural Areas Protected (NAP) zoning. Additionally, the City proactively purchased a number of properties in the floodplain in order to mitigate disruptions to natural conveyance structures. Currently, the City of College Station owns 803.6 acres of floodplain in the City limits; most of this land is programed as city parks, greenways, and open spaces for the public’s enjoyment. The City’s floodplain management program helps citizens minimize flood-related property damage as well as protect water quality, provide ideal wildlife habitat, and maintain dynamic travel corridors. The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) has designated the College Station as a Class-6 Community in recognition of the city’s flood management efforts beyond the minimum National Flood Insurance Program standards. Subsequently, the flood insurance rates in College Station have been reduced by twenty (20) percent for structures in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA) and ten (10) percent in all areas outside of the SFHA since 2020. Figure 5: Floodplain Map of College Station9 Page 238 of 414 DEMOGRAPHICS Population The estimated population of College Station as of December 2023 was 128,370 (Planning and Development Services, 2024). Over the last five years, the City’s population grew by approximately 7.9%, with an average annual growth rate of 1.5% (Table 2). This slower growth rate reflects the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly through reduced student movement and the shift to distance learning during 2020 and early 2021. 10 Page 239 of 414 Table 2: College Station Population 2009-2023; Source: Planning and Development Services Year Estimated Population Annual Growth Rate 5-Year Growth Rate 2009 93,450 2.81% 10.1% 2010 94,929 1.58% 2011 96,767 1.94% 2012 98,085 1.36% 2013 100,096 2.05% 2014 102,332 2.23% 18.9% 2015 106,581 4.15% 2016 109,927 3.14% 2017 116,893 6.34% 2018 118,967 1.77% 2019 121,489 2.12% 7.9% 2020 122,085 0.49% 2021 124,511 1.99% 2022 126,005 1.20% 2023 128,370 1.88% The City’s population estimates are calculated by adding projected population growth to a base number; typically, the population estimate from the most recent decennial census. Population growth is calculated by multiplying the number of demolition permits and recently issued residential certificates of occupancy by a multiplier. The multiplier is based on the average household size and occupancy rate from the most recent American Community Survey data releases. 11 Page 240 of 414 Growth Projections for 2030 Population projections for College Station were conducted at 2%, 2.5%, and 3% annual growth rates. Figure 7 compares trends and projections for 2030 against those from 2018 and 2023. Between 2014 and 2018, the City experienced an 18.9% growth rate, which influenced higher projections for 2030. However, the 2020 dip in growth altered this trajectory, leading to more conservative estimates. Figure 6: 2030 Population Projections for College Station; Source: Planning and Development Services STATE AND REGIONAL PROJECTIONS In 2022, the Texas State Demographer projected the state’s population to reach between 44.4 million and 54.4 million by 2060. For Brazos County, the conservative estimate was 356,762, with a high-end projection of 458,282 (Figure 6). The College Station-Bryan metropolitan area is expected to grow to 424,700 by 2060, ranking 36th among 384 U.S. metropolitan areas (Stebbins, 2022). 200,000 180,000 160,000 140,000 120,000 100,000 80,000 60,000 40,000 20,000 0 2010 2015 2020 2025 2030 2018 Projections 2023 Projections Recorded Population 109,927(2016) 128,370(2023) 3.0%, 156,7172.5%, 151,6532.0%, 146,729 12 Page 241 of 414 Density The mean population density by block group in College Station is 8.75 people per acre, with the densest block group reaching 31 people per acre.

In the early years (2018-2019), inventory levels were higher, with months of inventory consistently above 4 months, reflecting a balanced market. However, during the pandemic years (2020-2021), inventory levels dropped dramatically as demand outpaced supply. By December 2021, months of inventory fell to just 0.42, marking a seller’s market. Starting in 2022, inventory levels began to recover as market conditions shifted. By the end of 2023, months of inventory reached 2.47, signaling a move toward more balanced market conditions. Property Tax and Assessed Value Over the last decade, College Station’s total taxable assessed value has almost doubled (Figure 68). Between 2018 and 2023 alone, total taxable assessed value increased by 34%, primarily fueled by rising prices and added value through new construction.

Page 268 of 414 LAND USE This section examines the land use patterns and planning strategies in College Station. It covers the City’s growth and annexation history, current and future land use designations, zoning regulations, and the challenges and opportunities facing land use planning in the City. Understanding these elements is crucial for guiding the City’s development and ensuring a balanced, sustainable urban environment. The data on future land use, zoning, and existing land use provides a comprehensive view of how College Station is planning and managing its growth. City Growth and Annexation Annexation is a tool for cities to extend land development regulations – particularly zoning – to manage growth and land use to implement the comprehensive plan. Subsequently, annexation also extends the City’s ETJ boundaries, enabling it to regulate the subdivision of land over a larger area. Since incorporation in 1938, the City of College Station has actively annexed property into its City limits. Between 1938 and 1960, the areas primarily surrounding Texas A&M University were brought into the City limits. By 1980, the City had expanded along Earl Rudder Freeway (State Highway 6) down to Greens Prairie Road, currently referred to as William D. Fitch Parkway. Annexations after 1990 expanded the City limit lines further east along Carter Creek and south and west along Wellborn Road. 40 Page 269 of 414 ANNEXATION 021Miles DATA SOURCE: CITY OF COLLEGE STATION < 1959 1960-1979 1980-1999 2000-2019 DECADE ANNEXED Figure 44: Annexation by Decade Map; Source: City of College Station 1940 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 2020 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 Figure 43: Growth of College Station’s City Limits (1940-2020); Source: City of College Station 41 Page 270 of 414 NON-ANNEXATION AGREEMENTS 2028 2031 EXPIRATION YEAR DATA SOURCE: CITY OF COLLEGE STATION 0 2.51.25 Miles At the time of incorporation, the City’s ETJ extended one mile beyond the City limits. As a result of annexations and population growth, the City’s ETJ expanded as prescribed by the Texas Local Government Code. Table 17: Extent of Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Over Time; Source: City of College Station ETJ Boundary – Miles beyond City Limits Population threshold Year of Expansion 2 25,000 1974 3.5 50,000 1980 5 100,000+ 2018 In 2006, the City began the process of creating an annexation program for properties in the ETJ with an agricultural exemption. The Texas legislature enacted a State law to preserve agricultural land and protect it from municipal annexation. As a part of the law, the City was required to offer development agreements to the property owners of agriculturally appraised land, which protects the land from annexation for 10 years if the property maintains agricultural status and remains undeveloped. As of 2018, the City has entered into development agreements that cover 2,211 acres of agricultural land initially proposed for annexation. Figure 45: Non-Annexation Agreements Map; Source: City of College Station 42 Page 271 of 414 On May 24, 2019, municipal annexation as it existed over the last century was stopped by House Bill 347 (HB347), removing the ability of cities to unilaterally annex new territory. Prior to HB347, annexations were a key tool for cities to manage population growth and ensure financial security for infrastructure and facilities that provide municipal services (Texas Municipal League 2019). This landmark legislation significantly altered the landscape for municipal growth in Texas, requiring most annexations by cities in Texas to receive landowner or voter approval. The City of College Station annexed four acres at the request of the property owner in 2019 under the new annexation regulations. This property was surrounded by the College Station city limits and as so situated, did not expand the city’s extra-territorial jurisdiction. State law allows cities to annex areas without consent if the area is subject to a Strategic Partnership Agreement, which defines the option and timing for future annexation through the agreement. College Station currently has two Strategic Partnership Agreements—one for Brazos County Municipal Utility District No. 1 (Southern Pointe), and one for Brazos County MUD No. 2 (Millican Reserve). The City anticipates additional MUDs will be added to Millican Reserve as development progresses in phases. MUDs also allow cities to control growth through Development Agreements. PLATTED GROWTH Platting involves creating a detailed map of a property showing how it will be divided into lots. The platting process prepares a property for development and subdivision by ensuring it can be properly served by utilities, can access the transportation network, and meets zoning requirements. Growth and platting activity during College Station’s early years reflects the influence of Texas A&M University as the physical, economic, and social center. Over the years, platting activity has steadily expanded outward, particularly to the south. By interlocal agreement, the City does not review plats in the portions of the ETJ within Burleson and Grimes Counties. From 2019 to 2023, the city processed 67 final plats covering 738 acres.

The data on electricity consumption and infrastructure in College Station offers insights into the city’s energy demand and the capacity of its electrical system. Over the years, annual electricity consumption has steadily increased, reflecting growth in population, development, and economic activities. The consumption figures, from 913 million kWh in 2019 to just under 1 billion kWh in 2023, signify a consistent rise in energy needs. The peak in 2022 at 998.4 million kWh suggests that both residential and commercial activities have surged in recent years.

College Station disinfects its drinking water with gas chlorine to provide an effective chlorine residual. After the water is disinfected, it is pumped into the water distribution system, which includes elevated storage tanks. The elevated storage tanks provide an adequate supply of water pressure for homes, businesses, and fire protection within the College Station water certificated area (CCN). College Station’s water system includes over 490 miles of water distribution lines, 10 groundwater wells, 2 pump stations, 2 ground water storage tanks, and 3 elevated storage tanks. The water system is rated “Superior” by the State of Texas and has received awards for outstanding operations and maintenance from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The city has approximately 117,571 residential water consumers and sees an average consumption of 130 GPCD per person per day. Notably, the City saw annual water consumption exceed 5,000 million gallons of water starting in 2022. Due to the recent increase in water consumption, the average annual water consumption between 2019 and 2023 was 5,004.92 million gallons. Currently the City has approved well permits for the construction of three new groundwater wells. Water consumption also reflects a growth pattern, with usage steadily increasing from around 4,000 million gallons (MG) in 2014 to over 5,900 MG in 2022.

Key features include various specialized facilities, such as three disc golf courses located in Oaks, Wolf Pen Creek, and Southern Oaks Parks, offering both recreational and social engagement opportunities. Wolf Pen Creek, the largest of these parks, spans 63.71 acres, while Southern Oaks and Oaks Parks are smaller but provide accessible 9-hole courses. The City also supports active recreation with facilities such as pickleball courts in Brian Bachmann and Bee Creek Parks. Brian Bachmann Park, covering 42.32 acres, stands out with its wide array of amenities, including a community pool, multiple sports fields, and a pavilion, making it a hub for community activity. Similarly, Bee Creek Park’s 44.60 acres house softball fields, playgrounds, and trails, emphasizing multi- functional recreational spaces. Paved trails are a staple in most parks, while unpaved trails in Lick Creek, Bee Creek, and Billie Madeley Parks offer opportunities for nature exploration. Page 295 of 414 Law Enforcement and Emergency Services POLICE The College Station Police Department (CSPD) is primarily responsible for the protection of life, liberty, and property for people that are within the City limits. It provides these services through various means including enforcement of criminal laws and ordinances, providing education, recovery of property, animal control, traffic enforcement, and investigation of crimes. CSPD is made up of three bureaus: the Administrative Services Bureau, Field Operations Bureau, and Operational Support Bureau. The Administrative Services Bureau includes many different divisions within the department that supplement and enhance the overall operations of the department. These include divisions for Information Services, Communications, Support Services, and Technical Services. The Field Operations Bureau is the largest bureau in CSPD and encompasses uniformed patrol, police assistants, traffic enforcement unit, and the College Station Tourism and Entertainment Policing. The Uniformed Patrol Division is the largest division in CSPD and includes 91 Officers, 13 Sergeants, 3 Lieutenants, 2 K9s, and a Drone Team.

CSFD employed 166 professional staff. CSFD has one building facility (dispatch and administration) and six fire stations. CSFD staffs 5 fire engines, 2 platform ladder trucks, 1 quint, 4 ambulances, 1 water tender, 1 airport truck, 1 safety officer, and 3 battalion chiefs. Additionally, the department operates special teams that includes hazardous materials, wildland, swift water, bicycle response, medical task force, and search and rescue. A seventh fire station is currently in the development process. CSFD is an accredited agency by the Commission on Fire Accreditation International (CFAI). CFAI determines accreditation by ensuring CSFD meets or exceeds the highest standards of performance and safety and requires reaccreditation every five years. Additionally, CSFD holds an Insurance Service Office (ISO) Class 1/8Y Public Protection Classification (PPC) rating. Effective April 1, 2019, an ISO Class 1 Rating places CSFD in the top-tier of agencies in the United States that provide fire protection. The enhanced rating validates that fire protection, water service, and communications are in the top-tier. The PPC score is a measure of the community’s overall ability to reduce property losses due to fires. The scale of a PPC rating ranges from 1-10, with Class 1 being the highest rating. Finally, College Station has a premier collection of emergency response training facilities in its backyard: Brayton Fire Training Field, Disaster City®, and the Emergency Operations Training Center — all operated by the Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service (TEEX). Emergency Medical Services (EMS) of the CSFD ensures that all department vehicles, including ambulances, fire engines, and ladder trucks have the capability to perform advanced-level medical care up to the Mobile Intensive Care Unit (MICU) level. The capabilities of these units include defibrillation, cardioversion, pacing, ECG and EKG interpretation, IV therapy, IO Access, medication administration, advanced airway management and intubation, chest decompression, and other advanced skills. CSFD EMS provides Medical Standy for community events. Since the City’s last fire station opened in 2012, the population has grown by 34%, and the call volume for emergency fire/EMS services has increased by 83%.

For the 2023- 2024 school year, the district served 14,430 students across its elementary, intermediate, middle, and high schools, with high schools seeing the largest enrollment at 4,423 students. 31% of enrolled students were in high school, 15% in middle school, 14% in intermediate, and 40% in elementary. Graduation rates have consistently increased over the years, climbing from 91.9% in 2014 to 95.1% in 2022. College Station’s first public charter school, International Leadership of Texas, has been open since the 2018-2019 school year. Two other school districts serve a small proportion of students in College Station and its extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). Generally, Bryan ISD serves College Station residents east of Carter Creek and on the west side of Easterwood Airport. Navasota ISD serves the southernmost portion of College Station’s ETJ, just south of Peach Creek.

Most residents’ means of transportation to work is to drive alone (74.8%), while 6.3% carpool, 3.5% use public transit, 4% walk, 2.3% travel by bicycle, and 8% work remotely. The availability of vehicles among residents also highlights the area’s demographic characteristics. About 5.5% of occupied housing units have no vehicles available, while 37.2% of units have one vehicle, and 38.1% have two vehicles. Thoroughfares College Station’s economic vitality, character, and identity rely on a well-connected transportation system. The City’s thoroughfare network applies context-sensitive design principles to address multi-modal transportation needs while aligning with land use and character objectives. The Thoroughfare Plan, part of the Comprehensive Plan (Chapter 6: Mobility), outlines a long-term vision for the major street network required to support future mobility demands. It serves as a guide for future transportation investments and classifies roadways based on their function, including access to adjacent land uses, mobility for through traffic, and surrounding context. The plan identifies the locations of planned and existing roadways classified as minor collectors or higher within College Station and its ETJ (extraterritorial jurisdiction). 75 Page 304 of 414 THOROUGHFARE PLAN 0 2.51.25 Miles DATA SOURCE: CITY OF COLLEGE STATION FREEWAY/EXPRESSWAY PROPOSED FREEWAY/EXPRESSWAY 6 LANE MAJOR ARTERIAL PROPOSED 6 LANE MAJOR ARTERIAL 4 LANE MAJOR ARTERIAL PROPOSED 4 LANE MAJOR ARTERIAL MINOR ARTERIAL PROPOSED MINOR ARTERIAL MAJOR COLLECTOR PROPOSED MAJOR COLLECTOR MINOR COLLECTOR PROPOSED MINOR COLLECTOR CITY LIMITS ETJ PROPOSED GRADE SEPARATED CROSSING GRADE SEPARATED CROSSING UNIVERSITY DRGEORGE BUSH DRFM 60F M 2 1 5 4 PRAIRIEHARVEY RDWILLIAM D FITCH PKWYSH 30 HOLLEMAN DR SBARRON RDGREENS PRAIRIE RD S H 6 S H 6 RD ROCK FM 2 1 5 4 TE X A S A V E S FM 2818F M 2 8 1 8 Figure 75: Thoroughfare Plan Map; Source: City of College Station Page 305 of 414 Figure 76: Thoroughfare Expansions and Improvements Map; Source: City of College Station FUTURE THOROUGHFARES & EXPANSIONS 0 2.51.25 Miles DATA SOURCE: CITY OF COLLEGE STATION FUTURE EXPANSIONS FUTURE THOROUGHFARES CITY LIMITS ETJ FUTURE GRADE SEPARATED CROSSINGS UNIVERSITY DRGEORGE BUSH DRFM 60FM 2 1 5 4 PRAIRIEHARVEY RDWILLIAM D FITCH PKWYSH 30 HOLLEMAN DR SBARRON RDGREENS PRAIRIE RD SH 6 S H 6 RD ROCK FM 2 1 5 4 TE X A S A V E S FM 2818 F M 2 8 1 8 EALGE AVEGRAHAM RDGRAHAM RDDEACONDRUNIVERSITY DR EHOLLEMAN DRSOUTH WE S TPKWYPage 306 of 414 The Future Thoroughfare and Expansions Map outlines future thoroughfare plans and expansions within the City of College Station. Future road expansions aim to improve connectivity, particularly in areas currently underserved by major roads. Proposed grade separated crossings are strategically placed to reduce congestion and improve safety at major intersections or railroad crossings. The planned infrastructure also aims to accommodate growth outside the existing municipal boundaries. The Plan highlights a concentration of thoroughfare development along major routes such as Rock Prairie Road and FM 2154. The future thoroughfares are designed to enhance regional connectivity, linking College Station with neighboring areas, particularly along SH 30 and other routes heading outward. PARKING Off-street parking requirements are detailed in the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) under Article 5 (“District Purpose Statements and Supplemental Standards,”) and Article 7 (“General Development Standards,”). On August 10, 2023, the City of College Station adopted Ordinance #2023-4454, which updated the off-street parking requirements as follows: 1. established off-street parking maximums for commercial parking; 2. reduced the minimum off-street parking required for commercial parking in half; and 3. removed minimum requirement for off-street parking for commercial developments that are in Redevelopment areas. On-street parking is generally permitted in both residential and non-residential areas if streets meet specific standards to ensure emergency access (UDO Section 8.3.V). Specifically, streets wider than 27 feet allow parking on both sides, streets 24 to 27 feet wide permit parking on one side, and streets narrower than 24 feet have parking removed on both sides. In the Northgate District, 104 marked ParkMobile spaces are available on Nagle, Stasney, Tauber, Lodge, and Cross streets. TRAFFIC The Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) is a critical metric to understand traffic flow dynamics. The data analyzed are from 2023. Stations on Highway 6 show consistent increases in AADT over the years. These stations report recent values exceeding 70,000 vehicles per day, highlighting the corridor’s significance as a major arterial route. Some routes, such as Harvey Mitchell Parkway, show significant year-to-year variation, reflecting potential external influences such as the academic calendar of Texas A&M University. Some roads, particularly minor or regional routes, show declining traffic or stagnation. 78 Page 307 of 414 2023 ESTIMATED DAILY TRAFFIC VOLUME DATA SOURCE: CITY OF COLLEGE STATION 021MilesFM 60FM 2 8 1 8 FM 2154SH 40SH 6 S H 6 HARVEY RDUNIVERSITY DRGEORGE BUSH DRFM 215 4 FM 281 8TE XAS AV E S ROCK PRAIRIE RD GREENS PRAIRIE RDBARRON RDEAGLE AVEGRAHAM RDDEACON DRSOUTHWEST PKWYHOLLEMAN DR SF M 2 1 5 4 UNIVERSITY DRE0-5,000 5,001-15,000 15,001-25,000 25,001-40,000 40,001-65,000 65,001 + NUMBER OF VEHICLES PER DAY Figure 77: Estimated Daily Traffic Volume Map; Source: Texas Department of Transportation Page 308 of 414 HIGHWAYS Traffic stations on Highway 6 consistently report the highest AADT values, with volumes exceeding 60,000 to 70,000 vehicles daily. This reflects its importance as a major thoroughfare for long-distance and regional travel. Traffic fluctuations between years may indicate periodic maintenance or alternate routing during construction. MAJOR ROADS Traffic along Harvey Mitchell Parkway (FM 2818) varies. AADT values range from 20,000 to 40,000 depending on the segment. Major arterial roadways like Texas Avenue, University Drive, and Harvey Mitchell Parkway highlight higher traffic volumes in proximity to city centers and intersections. Moderate but steady traffic is reported along University Drive (FM 60), with stations reporting AADT around 30,000. COLLECTOR ROADS Traffic levels are significantly lower on collector roads. These roads typically range from 1,000 to 10,000 AADT depending on the segment. Examples include Longmire (3,936 AADT) and Lincoln (5,255 AADT). GEOSPATIAL TRAFFIC PATTERNS Traffic patterns can be spatially analyzed, and three primary themes emerge: urban core traffic, periphery roads traffic, and directional variations in traffic (Figure 82). Stations near the city’s core report the highest AADT values. This aligns with the density of development and associated economic activities. As distance from the City increases, traffic volumes decrease. Finally, northbound and southbound lanes sometimes show differing AADT, indicating directional traffic surges likely driven by commuting patterns. 80 Page 309 of 414 Crashes Analyzing crash patterns can help us identify crash locations, severity, road types, and intersections with the highest crash occurrences. CRASH LOCATIONS The distribution of crashes by location from 2019 to 2023 reveals several trends (Figure 78). Non- Intersection Areas account for the highest number of crashes, nearing 10,000 incidents in the five-year period. Intersections follow as the second most common crash location, highlighting the need for enhanced traffic management at these points. Intersection-Related Crashes (occurring near intersections) also contribute significantly, suggesting challenges in areas transitioning into or out of intersections. Driveway Access Points have the fewest crashes, but they still represent a noteworthy safety concern for vehicles entering or exiting properties. Figure 78: Crashes by Intersection Code, 2019-2023; Source: City of College Station CRASH SEVERITY The most common category for crash severity is the “Not Injured” category, with over 11,000 cases between 2019 and 2023. In this time frame, 96% crashes in the City are categorized as minor crashes, including crashes that had suspected minor injuries, possible injuries, or no injuries. Suspected Minor Injuries are the second most common outcome, followed by Possible Injuries. Fatalities and Serious Injuries are relatively rare. 2.86% of crashes in College Station were categorized as major crashes. Major crashes include those that have fatalities or suspected serious injuries.

Texas Avenue S and Poplar Street ranks as the most crash-prone intersection, which is heavily influenced by the number of crashes at intersections directly North and South of the intersection (e.g., Texas and University and Texas and Live Oak intersections, respectively). In response to the high number of crashes at that intersection, the median opening at Texas Avenue and Live Oak Street was closed in 2024 and crashes have since decreased in this area and are expected to continue this decline in crashes in the future. Wellborn Road and George Bush Road and other intersections along major thoroughfares like Texas Avenue and Earl Rudder Freeway feature prominently in the top 10.

Currently, the city maintains 57.7 miles of bike lanes, 21.2 miles of bike routes, 387.7 miles of sidewalks, and 40.6 miles of multiuse paths. BICYCLE PLAN The City contains a network of existing bicycle lanes concentrated in urbanized areas and major corridors. This indicates current efforts to facilitate bicycle commuting within the city core. Existing shared-use paths complement bicycle lanes, offering additional off-road options for cyclists and connecting recreational spaces or less urbanized areas. 83 Page 312 of 414 BICYCLE PLAN 021Miles DATA SOURCE: CITY OF COLLEGE STATION PROPOSED GRADE SEPARATED CROSSINGS FUNDED GRADE SEPARATED CROSSINGS EXISTING GRADE SEPARATED CROSSINGS EXISTING BICYCLE LANES FUNDED BICYCLE FACILITIES* PROPOSED BICYCLE FACILITIES* EXISTING BICYCLE ROUTES PROPOSED BICYCLE ROUTES EXISTING SHARED USE PATHS FUNDED SHARED USE PATHS PROPOSED SHARED USE PATHS CITY LIMITS ETJ *Bicycle facilities could be bicycle lanes, buered bicycle lanes, or separated bicycle lanes.

AFFORDABLE AND DIVERSE HOUSING Participants across all engagement formats emphasized that housing affordability remains the most urgent and persistent challenge in College Station. Residents noted rising rents, aging housing stock, limited landlord participation in voucher programs, and barriers to entry for low- and moderate-income (LMI) renters. Frequent input included: • Interest in expanding rental and utility assistance programs • Concerns about substandard rental conditions and enforcement gaps • Desire for policy tools such as tax incentives to increase affordability • Support for accessible homeownership options and middle-income housing types 2. TRANSPORTATION AND MOBILITY Transportation was a consistent topic of concern. Residents, boards, and staff described the public transit system as limited, infrequent, and difficult to navigate. Others pointed to gaps in pedestrian safety and the need for better regional coordination. Common feedback themes: • Frustration with limited bus coverage and inconsistent service frequency • Safety concerns related to pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure • Interest in expanding micro-mobility planning efforts (e.g., scooters, bikes) • Requests for clearer communication about existing services and coordination with Brazos Transit and TAMU 3. STRATEGIC GROWTH & NEIGHBORHOOD INTEGRITY Many stakeholders expressed concern about the pace and pattern of growth and its impact on neighborhood quality, infrastructure, resources, and housing stability. There was a shared interest in balancing new development with neighborhood preservation. Community members and officials frequently noted: • Many stakeholders emphasized the need for improved outreach and communication from the City to help residents and property owners better understand how land use policies translate into zoning decisions. • Stakeholder concerns regarding whether zoning decisions are being applied in a manner consistent with the Future Land Use Map and the Comprehensive Plan’s objective of preserving long-term neighborhood integrity. • The importance of transitional land use or buffering to reduce impacts • Concerns that City services and infrastructure is not keeping pace with population growth and new development 4. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT & WORKFORCE READINESS Several focus groups and Council interviews discussed the need for a more visible and integrated approach to economic development within the Plan. Participants highlighted the absence of strategic planning and targeted initiatives for workforce development and local talent retention aligned with evolving industry demands. Page 387 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |4 Input included: • Recognition of workforce gaps, particularly for non-degree occupations • Discussion about small business retention and entrepreneurship • Calls for clearer articulation of economic development goals in the Plan • Interest in upskilling and job training for residents 5. SUSTAINABILITY AND RESILIENCE Concerns about climate resilience, water supply, and environmental sustainability came up across many engagement formats, especially among council and board members. Stakeholders discussed: • The need for long-term planning for stormwater and heat mitigation • Interest in low-impact development and green infrastructure practices • Opportunities to better integrate environmental goals into land use planning 6. PARKS, TRAILS, AND PUBLIC SPACESResidents and boards praised the existing park system while highlighting opportunities to improve equity, connectivity, and maintenance. Community feedback included: • A desire to expand trail systems and greenway connectivity • Requests for more shade, tree canopy, and natural area preservation • Interest in integrating parks with local businesses and active streetscapes • Concerns about park access and distribution in newly developing areas 7. PARTICIPATION AND COMMUNICATIONAccess to services and participation was a key theme in focus groups and community meetings. Some stakeholders expressed concern about how well public processes and city services reach historically underrepresented populations. Common concerns included: • Gaps in service delivery for seniors, non-English speakers, and low-income residents • Barriers to participation in planning processes • Desire for more multilingual, multi-platform outreach strategies • Calls to simplify zoning and development communication 8. IMPLEMENTATION AND ACCOUNTABILITYCity staff and elected officials noted challenges in tracking and implementing certain action items within the Plan. There was interest in making the Plan easier to manage, monitor, and align with budget and departmental operations. Input from staff and elected officials emphasized: • The need for clearer departmental roles and ownership of action items • Frustration with vague or overly broad language in the implementation matrix • Interest in improving the use of tracking tools like AchieveIt • Suggestions to link Comprehensive Plan implementation more directly to Council priorities and annual budget processes Page 388 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |5 GENERAL PUBLIC FEEDBACK Public input, gathered through surveys, events, and conversations, revealed several areas of consistent importance to residents. Participants voiced what they value, what they find challenging, and where they see an opportunity for improvement in the years ahead. COMMUNITY PRIORITIES IDENTIFIED Community members consistently emphasized the following issues as important to the future of College Station: • The need for more affordable and diverse housing options, including support for renters and prospective homebuyers • Concerns about public safety resources keeping pace with population growth • A desire for expanded job training, employment opportunities, and small business support • Interest in stronger and more reliable public transportation services • Calls for more parks, trails, and recreational amenities in growing and underserved neighborhoods • Ongoing attention to flooding, drainage, and environmental protection measures ONGOING COMMUNITY CHALLENGES Residents identified a range of challenges that they believe the City will need to address in the coming years: • Rising costs of living, especially in housing, transportation, and basic services • Pressure on established neighborhoods from student-focused or high-density development • Strain on infrastructure and public facilities as growth continues • Gaps in access to healthcare, childcare, and education, particularly among lower-income households COMMUNITY-IDENTIFIED OPPORTUNITIES Despite these challenges, many participants expressed optimism about College Station’s future. They described ways the city could continue to grow while protecting its identity and improving quality of life for all.Frequently mentioned opportunities included: • Building stronger partnerships between City departments, schools, nonprofits, and employers • Creating more accessible pathways to education, job training, and employment • Revitalizing older neighborhoods in ways that promote equity and long-term stability • Using creative outreach methods to connect with residents and gather meaningful public input Many participants voiced a shared hope that College Station will continue to grow in a way that is thoughtful, all-encompassing, and sustainable, preserving the distinctive sense of place that makes it “feel like home.” LOCATION-BASED FEEDBACK FUTURE LAND USE Norton and Wellborn Rd., FM 2154A proposed change to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map from Neighborhood Commercial and Suburban Residential to Mixed Residential for approximately 20.7 acres generally located south of the intersection of Wellborn Page 389 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |6 Road and Norton Lane was made through the public engagement process. Mixed Residential is defined as areas appropriate for a mix of moderate density residential development including townhomes, duplexes, small multi-family buildings, and limited small-lot single family. Future Land Use (Neighborhood Commercial and Suburban Residential) Zoning (Rural) Business Center at Midtown DriveA proposed change to the Future Land Use and Character Map from Business Center to a Future Land Use compatible with Townhouse zoning (Urban Residential or Mixed Residential) for a portion of 313.73 acres of City property generally located east of Midtown Drive and north of William D. Fitch Parkway was made through the public engagement process. Urban Residential Page 390 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |7 is defined as areas appropriate for a range of high-density multifamily and attached residential development in various forms including townhomes, apartment buildings, mixed use buildings, and limited non-residential uses that are compatible with the surrounding area. Mixed Residential is defined as areas appropriate for a mix of moderate density residential development including townhomes, duplexes, small multi-family buildings, and limited small-lot single family. Future Land Use (Business Center and Natural & Open Areas) Zoning (Light Industrial) Page 391 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |8 THOROUGHFARE PLAN PEBBLE CREEK EXTENSION A proposed change to the Comprehensive Plan Thoroughfare Plan to remove the extension of Pebble Creek Parkway south from its current terminus at the intersection with St. Andrews Dr/ Royal Adelade Loop. Representatives from the Pebble Creek neighborhood expressed concern that this extension would negatively impact their quality of life, increase crime rates, devalue their homes, and potentially lead to the closure of the Pebble Creek Country Club. They are particularly concerned about the increased traffic, loss of green space, and the impact on pedestrians and golfers who use Pebble Creek Parkway. The representatives are seeking to have the thoroughfare extension removed from the plan. STAFF FEEBACK Throughout July 2025, the Long-Range Planning Division met with multiple City departments to gather staff reflections on implementation progress and coordination across the organization. Departments represented included those with responsibilities related to housing, development, engineering, infrastructure, capital planning, utilities, public safety, parks, and city management. Staff feedback focused on the practical realities of implementing the Plan and maintaining alignment with changing conditions, organizational shifts, and resource constraints. Common insights from staff included: • A recognition that many action items are broad, aspirational, or continuous in nature, making progress difficult to measure • The observation that some departmental assignments in the Plan no longer align with current workflows or organizational structure • Interest in incorporating phasing or prioritization to support budgeting and resource planning • The idea that the Comprehensive Plan could play a stronger role in shaping annual Council retreat priorities and long-range budget alignment • Noted limitations in the AchieveIt tracking system, which does not always align well with the Plan’s structure or allow for milestone-based progress tracking • A call for clearer timelines and implementation feasibility, particularly for items that may no longer be actionable or well-aligned with current priorities or resources. • The importance of refining or removing actions that are no longer feasible, ensuring that the Plan reflects what departments can reasonably implement over the planning horizon and organizational priorities. Staff emphasized that continued evaluation, coordination, and communication across departments will be essential for aligning implementation with both the Plan and real-world conditions. BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS FEEDBACK Between April 3 and April 14, 2025, the Long-Range Planning Division facilitated focused discussions with several City boards and commissions to gather input for the Comprehensive Plan Evaluation. These discussions provided insight from appointees with expertise in land use, preservation, infrastructure, mobility, and parks and recreation. Participants reflected on both ongoing challenges and areas of opportunity based on their service and community engagement.Boards and commissions engaged included: Page 392 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |9 • Planning & Zoning Commission • Historic Preservation Committee • Parks & Recreation Advisory Board • Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Greenways Advisory Board • Housing Plan Advisory Committee SHARED THEMES ACROSS BOARD DISCUSSIONS 1. Growth Pressures and Housing AffordabilityBoard members frequently discussed the impact of rapid growth on housing availability and affordability, especially for families and middle-income residents. Many noted that increased demand from student-oriented development is affecting the character and stability of existing neighborhoods. 2. Water and Environmental SustainabilityWater scarcity, urban heat, and long-term environmental resilience emerged as topics of concern, particularly in relation to park maintenance and future land use. Boards raised questions about how the Plan supports sustainability under increasing growth pressures. 3. Mobility and TransportationSeveral boards emphasized the need for safer and more connected pedestrian and bicycle networks. Micro-mobility, shaded routes, and regional coordination were also frequently discussed. 4. Parks and Green SpaceParticipants expressed strong appreciation for the City’s park system and described a desire to expand trail connectivity, prioritize maintenance, and strengthen the integration of green space into mixed-use and commercial areas. 5. Historic Preservation and Neighborhood CharacterThe Historic Preservation Committee and Planning & Zoning Commission raised concerns about the tension between redevelopment and preservation, particularly in older neighborhoods. Topics included accessory dwelling units (ADUs), parking, and the protection and importance of historic districts. 6. Public Engagement and TransparencyAcross all boards, participants reflected on the importance of predictable planning processes, transparency in land use decisions, and comprehensive outreach, particularly in the context of rezoning and Comprehensive Plan amendments. BOARD-SPECIFIC HIGHLIGHTS BOARD KEY INPUT Planning & Zoning Commission Emphasized the need for transparency in the Future Land Use Map, concerns about drainage/flooding, and maintaining single-family neighborhood protections. Historic Preservation Committee Discussed housing affordability in older neighborhoods, university area pressures, and the importance of protection for historic districts. Page 393 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |10 Parks & Recreation Advisory Board Focused on water availability for parks, park-business integration, and greenway connectivity. Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Greenways Advisory Board Highlighted traffic safety, shade and comfort for active mobility corridors, and coordination on survey efforts and planning tools. QUESTIONNAIRE THEMES FROM BOARD MEMBERS Following the discussions, board members also completed a written questionnaire. Their feedback reinforced the themes above and added the following: Common Priorities: • Preserving neighborhood integrity and encouraging compatible land use • Increasing affordable and diverse housing options • Improving pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure and transit access • Supporting reinvestment in aging corridors and mixed-use redevelopment • Expanding and connecting trails, parks, and green infrastructure Common Concerns: • Many stakeholders emphasized the need for improved outreach and communication from the City to help residents and property owners better understand how land use policies translate into zoning decisions. • Stakeholder concerns regarding whether zoning decisions are being applied in a manner consistent with the Future Land Use Map and the Comprehensive Plan’s objective of preserving long-term neighborhood integrity. • Impacts of rapid growth on public services and infrastructure, particularly in new development areas • Difficulty accessing city services and participating in public processes due to gaps in public transit services and limited public communication methods Boards expressed strong support for a planning process that reflects community priorities, manages change predictably, and integrates environmental and social values. CITY COUNCIL INTERVIEWS As part of the Five-Year Comprehensive Plan Evaluation process, Planning staff conducted individual interviews with each member of the College Station City Council during July 2025. These conversations offered valuable insight into Councilmembers’ perspectives on the Plan’s effectiveness, evolving community needs, and opportunities for refinement. Councilmembers generally expressed support for the Comprehensive Plan’s goals and structure. Many viewed the Plan as a forward-looking document that reflects the City’s aspirations and helps guide long-term decisions. They also identified areas for clarification and expansion based on current conditions and emerging trends. KEY AREAS OF EMPHASIS 1. Economic DevelopmentAll Councilmembers discussed the importance of economic development and expressed interest in seeing it more prominently featured in the Comprehensive Plan. While the Plan references the Economic Development Master Plan, some felt that high-level Page 394 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |11 goals, such as talent development, business attraction, and workforce retention, should be more explicitly addressed. Several Councilmembers emphasized the growing need for jobs that do not require a four-year degree and highlighted the potential for College Station to retain more local talent. 2. Housing and Neighborhood ConservationAffordability, housing diversity, and neighborhood preservation were frequently mentioned. Councilmembers shared concerns about the effects of state legislation that removed local occupancy regulations and discussed alternative tools, such as overlay districts, land use buffers, or design standards, to help maintain neighborhood stability. There was strong interest in increasing options for workforce and middle-income housing without compromising neighborhood character. 3. Mobility and Micro-MobilityTransportation technology and shifting mobility preferences were key themes. Councilmembers spoke about the need to integrate micromobility options (such as e-scooters and bikes) into the City’s planning framework, particularly as regional transportation projects evolve, such as SH 6 and Union Pacific railway. There was a shared interest in ensuring College Station remains connected, multimodal, and accessible. 4. Growth Uncertainty and Demographic ChangeSeveral Councilmembers reflected on the unpredictability of future growth, especially considering TAMU’s planned enrollment cap and shifting population dynamics. A growing senior population, alumni returning to raise families, and changes in housing preference were all cited as factors that may shape long-term development trends. ADDITIONAL COUNCIL THEMES • Housing & Density Management – Focus on preserving neighborhood character while accommodating more housing types • Sustainability & Environment – Interest in urban heat mitigation, green infrastructure, and environmental design • Alternative Mobility – Support for reducing car dependence and expanding mobility choices • Redevelopment Areas – Continued attention to areas like Northgate and aging commercial corridors • Greenways & Trails – Support for enhanced trail connectivity and natural space preservation • Public Engagement – Appreciation for transparent processes and broad community participation Council input underscored the value of a flexible and adaptive Plan, one that balances predictability with responsiveness and reflects the community’s evolving aspirations and realities. CONCLUSION The insights gathered through this engagement process reflect a community that is thoughtful, invested, and forward-looking. Participants from all corners of College Station, residents, service providers, businesses, boards, Councilmembers, and staff, offered meaningful input rooted in lived experience and shared aspiration. While perspectives varied, common themes emerged around housing affordability, mobility, economic opportunity, and neighborhood preservation. This report does not offer conclusions or directives but instead provides a reflection of what was heard. These voices will inform the evaluation of current policies, help guide refinements to the Comprehensive Plan and ensure that future actions remain grounded in the needs and values of the community.

Code enforcement in older neighborhoods not enough parks with natural hiking areas and greenspace (not SPORTS related) Medians/ Macy’s/ lack of coordination with rising school tax Coordinating school locations with busy roads so drop-off and pickup is efficient. The hesitancy to allow student housing in areas next to campus Pushing for road development east and developing a midtown area The city prioritizes A&M students over lifetime residents who own homes and businesses in College Station. Allowing a very small group of neighborhood activist eat up a large portion of staff time and resources in regards to the over occupancy issue. The government has no place in peoples bedrooms. Macy’s. Northgate. Development has gone astray here. Northgate is crowded and has lost its unique charm. Is it a downtown, is it student housing, is it an entertainment area? The city never should have purchased Macy’s. I do not believe we are incentivizing development to the maximum capacity that we can. I live in Midtown, an area that was promised x, y, and z for however many years and there is no movement on development. Additionally we need more housing. Lack of progress in Midtown, sports fields and indoor space. complete fiscal mismanagement No continuous planning. It seems the focus for development changes with each council resulting in incomplete development...see failed/stalled midtown. And no major new employment activity or major family entertainment venues for citizens & visitors. Not showing enough concern for the needs of the seniors, not investing in advertising in a way that will draw more seniors into the community, and not showing enough concern for the historical and lower income needs of several communities. few NON sports parks that have lots of green space, trees and nature walks Traffic Congestion navigation Increasing Impact and Park Fees Page 399 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |16 WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER SHORTCOMINGS IN THE CITY OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS? Residential development and support for local and small builders. We still need more bike lanes. And we need lap pools for swimmers. Keep building multi-use paths! Lack of facilities south of Rock Prairie Losing Amazon Drones, Post Oak Mall not being redeveloped, the old apartments along Harvey Road (from Bush to SH 6) not being redeveloped I think the largest shortcoming has been the law that was passed limiting the amount of people that live together if they are not related. Not really feasible to do much by bus or bike unless it’s near the university. increased fees and regulations have hindered development opportunities and increased the cost of living and housing in College Station Affordable housing, traffic congestion, no shade, displacement, no good jobs outside of the university Trying to address increased traffic by fixing car traffic instead of promoting other transportation options Traffic, over crowding. Traffic design implementation lanes/light/etc. Being reactive in planning rather than proactive. We cannot expand roadways enough for all the traffic. We need to emphasize mass transit. Lack of dog parks Traffic School support. The city worries more about final finishes than K-12. Still need more bicycle lanes and sidewalks traffic is terrible and the police don't patrol streets for speeders. Barron rd. has a ton of speeders and there is a firehouse and HS nearby. People speed up and down the road at all hours of the night. Roadway Safety, congestion, Traffic mitigation, gamedays especially, flooding protection, prioritization of the university (the lifeblood of this city). Not enough expansion of infrastructure. Houses can’t sell here because of so many new builds. Cost of living too high. Just feel like Bryan has jumped way ahead of Cstat with the development of Legends and the area surrounding it Addressing housing accommodations in a timely manner that allow low income citizens and students to have affordable options while also insuring neighborhood integrity. Housing Increased taxes, Barron & Wellborn Rd. Hasn’t even started construction, affordable housing, paid parking, Growth and population exceeds infrastructure capacity Not allowing electricity options for population to choose from, undated parks for kids, code enforcement of neighborhoods (too many cars, weeds, campers/trailers parked in driveways, unkept property) Page 400 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |17 WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER SHORTCOMINGS IN THE CITY OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS? Emergency services, traffic control, focusing on unimportant things like elaborate welcome signs, roads unmaintained. The list goes on Wasting money on the Macy’s building. Not performing proper soil testing for the Independence Ball Park Industrial development with tax rate growth. Affordable housing for low income families has absolutely tanked. Families cannot afford to live and there are not enough community resources. The city needs to offer a rental assistance program Bad investments Purchase of Mall property The city fails in making this a long term community to live in. We're behind communities such as Waco who have a bigger VA office for veterans, more museums, a water park, YMCA, even a zoo. The city could become less transient if it these were prioritized Lack of actual affordable housing, low income housing, senior housing, and decent paying jobs for lower income levels Traffic Fire department pay and retention The lack of housing for families that is affordable and not specifically designed for college students. Not having the emergency response departments keep up, numbers wise, with the extreme growth of the city and Texas A&M. Slow adoption of methods to keep peds safe. Also discontinuity of multimodal facilities such as when a bike lane abruptly ends at an intersection without transition to sidewalk or drivers not watching for peds especially with right turn on red Dealing with Macys disaster and paying more SALRIES, AND BEING UNABLE TO LIVE IN THE CITY YOU WORK wages, and road conditions Parking and cost of living Handling of sensitive topics - Northgate, Macy's, etc. Street and parking lot construction Being 5 more years behind other areas in adding athletic fields affordable housing Missing what looked like an opportunity to get Buc-ees within the city limits interdepartmental relations; planning for all the new construction around town Housing and traffic Focusing on the wrong things to work on. drainage and flooding Lack of beautification and walkability, especially within the core.

The use of the budget with nothing to show for it. Specifically for parks and rec Mall looks to be floundering. Other malls within a 50 mile drive have better staples and small anchors. We have knock of shops and low end retail or eve resell shops in our mall. Makes it pretty easy to justify going out of town for shopping. Street repair, employee pay Traffic, Middle Age Entertainment, and Housing for low to moderate income citizens. It seems like there is only housing for students or citizens that make a higher income in College Station. The type of development in CS is making the town ugly. So many wooded areas are being developed but absolutely no trees are being left. It seems that the town could leave trees in surrounding areas or parking lot. purchase of Macy's building, ball park that was never finished, poor management of taxpayer dollars Not planning on more parking at City Hall The city looks more like a suburb of Houston than an independent city with attractive economic opportunity Development of the Northgate District CoCS is constantly losing business to the city of Bryan. Bryan is doing an outstanding job attracting new business, bringing in new families, and improving their reputation. very old water system that is always breaking Traffic flow is a major fail in certain areas. Some are very simple fixes that would not require construction and long traffic delays. Business development opportunities Neighborhood integrity, Traffic capacity, Affordable housing. Prioritization of automobile-centric transportation planning, over multi-modal resilient network I think a great many of our city residences are upset about the medians. Despite the fact they provide useful traffic control. housing prices Not enough things to do in the area Public safety turnover/compensation, recreational/entertainment opportunities for citizens and visitors that are NOT parks (we have plenty of those). Wages are not keeping up with economy Park maintenance and improvements Projects like the ballpark or Macys purchases that have cost millions in poor outcomes that could’ve been used in better ways planning for future growth Failed independence park.

This will be a more pressing issue when out of county companies begin pumping water for the Austin area. In addition we need to find funding to drill new wells. Water.

Being born and raised here I have seen the growth and am excited to see where CS’s expansion becomes. Big business potential=growing pop We have the opportunity to truly make this city beautiful and enjoyable. More priority should be placed on natural spaces and parks as well as the requirement of a percentage of tree to be left on new developed property. We are ideally located in the Texas Triangle and are home of the largest university in the US. We are uniquely positioned to attract large companies and industries. Securing water resources. Miss that opportunity and there won’t be a need for another five-year plan. There is a lot of opportunity in south college station to make this area more of a destination for full-time residents as well as students. The opportunity to enhance quality of life by leveraging the city's location to bring more businesses and amenities. The opportunity to address the debt crisis now, proactively instead of continuing the current path to compound the pain we'll feel dealing with the issue.

Development of US made products and the need for more industrial growth.

Understandably the city exists because A&M so that always needs to be a priority, but families need to be on the same level. New residents Regaining a spot as a destination city for public service workers The amount of people who have and are coming to College Station and the abilities that provides for the city as a whole. Since most roads are physically constrained at this point, shifting people out of their cars (onto micromobility) and providing ways to make bus service more reliable such as que bypass at traffic lights. CAPITALIZING ON HOUSING FOR PEOPLE THAT LIVE ANBD WORK HERE, NOT JUST THE STUDENT POPULATION city needs to bring in big retail to keep spending local Continued positive growth but can infrastructure accommodate it?

Is the city going to adjust its priorities before it’s too late Attracting high-end employment and retail, we are growing fast and if we want to keep that money here we need retail activity. We have an opportunity to create high density housing (like NG) which provides relief for traffic in other areas of the city. Parks and Economic Development (opportunities for growth. The city should prioritize the environment and town history. Long term residents should be considered over temporary students. Hopefully the new Housing Plan will bring new ideas to allow for growth and more affordable housing.

Updating Post Oak Mall area with businesses and infrastructure that supports tourism and economic growth. Reimagination of multi-modal transportation network as people-first recreational space of community connection, instead of auto-centric thoroughfare With our nature I feel we can make a huge impact by improving habitats in our parks/green spaces, extending residents incentives to have more natural yards, and look for ways for the community to help with policy creation. Opening more things for younger people to do since College Station has a lot of younger folks Planning and development of the land east of SH 6.

Having a plan and making a change. Houston area expansion Redevelopment of Northgate area. growth making the streets better Continued growth despite the city's efforts to not take advantage of it. We have great opportunities for development if the city will stop hindering it. DO YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL COMMENTS REGARDING THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF COLLEGE STATION? Quality of life should be a priority growth needs to be controlled unlike what happened to Houston during fast growth phases; developments where people can walk to amenities and meet neighbors We need industry/ large business Make a bus route that people would reasonably want to use over driving. Quality stops and, most importantly, dedicated bus lanes City Hall would greatly help the citizens by not approving more HOOs in older areas of town. This would make our older neighborhoods less attractive to Ag-shack developers, (hopefully) making neighborhoods more affordable for lower-income families. Try to land a few more large corporations in the next five years that bring stable jobs to the area. Tens of thousands live here and commute to Houston for job opportunities. East off of fitch is a great area for business park around flood zones. Please listen to the actual residents that are raising families and have a stake in this town. It seems that even when thousands sign petitions/attend council meetings it falls on deaf ears. If we can manage to attract large companies and industries, we will need additional workforce housing. Since we are no longer able to annex, we need to look into redevelop with particular attention paid to increasing density. We need more green spaces in the city, like Wolf Pen Creek Park. Page 410 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |27 DO YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL COMMENTS REGARDING THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF COLLEGE STATION? Drove to the FedEx office near Pebble Creek recently and I saw the trails, benches, and open spaces waiting for businesses and employees. This is a great area with housing and retail nearby. Has this been forgotten? Prioritize Midtown Focus on midtown, athletic fields for local and tournament use, housing, and infrastructure (highways, roads, hotels, etc.) Focus less on class warfare and pet projects like the narrowing of Lincoln Avenue and purchasing Macy's to let it sit empty. Instead, re-focus on the actual purpose of government: managing city services at the planning department and emergency services. City should stay out of real estate ventures...encourage private development North gate remains We need to spend more time getting more input from the wealthy residents to get their input on the growth of the area. Need more affordable options need to maintain neighborhood integrity with growing student population Growing more sustainably will provide college station with great benefits in the long run. College Station Should promote growth because it is coming to the area Can we share the Union Pacific right-of-way to build a commuter rail connecting all the housing centers from Wellborn (where we could even locate a park and ride) to A&M/Northgate and continuing on to Downtown Bryan? Cut congestion? An important part of managing the growing population is to allow for easier transportation. More sidewalks and accessible public transportation will be important. Focusing only on car-centric infrastructure will only make traffic worse, similar to Houston Parking minimums are an unnecessary burden on businesses. Sidewalks need more space away from the road if the speed limit is above 30 mph. be proactive in re-development opportunities I want more dense development that offers more things to do in a short distance. New development, especially around campus, should be intended to serve multiple modes of transportation. Also public health. Stop hiring from large cities and focus on teachers. Ban minimum parking requirements. Upzone near campus. Remove No More than 4 Please look at youth sports in the city. Our kids deserve a quality and safe place to play all recreational sports, especially basketball. Develop incentives for investing in sustainable practices, such as: 1. Better compensate for solar panel over production that rolls onto the city grid, a rebate program for water saving practices (i.e. rainwater recapture, low water need landscaping, etc.) Stay animals Build roads faster and stop waiting so long like you did with greens prairie road. Need to update elementary schools, offer incentives for first time homebuyers to work and live in cstat Page 411 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |28 DO YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL COMMENTS REGARDING THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF COLLEGE STATION? Development should be based on need (ex: more baseball fields) and not on pet projects or high costs wants (ex: a multimillion dollar rec center that will compete with private businesses). Its time we focal on building our tax base for both commercial and industrial business. A neighborhood community will not generate the tax revenue needed to support the city or community. Papadeaux This city needs more pretty green space. Perhaps even a man made lake with trails around it somewhere Concentrate on the services that support the continued growth fire/pd I appreciate what the city has done managing traffic congestion with the management center to use existing capacity better. I wish I felt safer on my bike. A painted gutter next to 35+ mph traffic is not safe despite its widespread use nationwide. Pay IT NEEDS TO SLOW DOWN AND FOCUS BACK ON THE PEOPLE THAT KEEP THE CITY RUNNING, TEACHERS, EMERGENY SERVICES, UTILITIES, SANITATION ETC Development from student living, high rises, new neighborhoods, ETC has blown up in the last 5 years so a little concerned it will be too much too fast for infrastructure to keep up. Cant wait to see all the comments and try to figure out which direction to go? Thanks There has always been a shortage of family-friendly businesses in the city because of it being a college town. As we continue to grow, I think there should be additional emphasis on attracting industry geared to our full-time population to create balance. Great work in changing the trajectory to a much more positive and interactive role Having a better plan for all the construction around town that's going on, some of the planning hasn't been thought out very well Growth is too fast and development too slow bring bigger businesses to College Station The city needs to look into more family friendly establishments instead of just recruiting bars and restaurants. As the population increases, public safety and utilities/infrastructure should the first priority. City needs better health insurance in order to keep retention. Too many coworkers are being denied needed surgeries Opportunities the City controls: for example, turning Macy's into something that turns the mall in a positive direction. Or the Patricia St. land which could enable high-density and retail needs of the city overall to be realized. No, I believe the City is doing what the can but only thing I might say is maybe looking at focusing on things for middle age. It feels like there are your seasoned individuals here and your students but where are the middle age individuals. Protect the history, protect some of the nature and protect permanent residents. The biggest obstacle to grown in the College Station is the City of College Station Stop focusing so much on catering to the university and tourism. Support small business ventures and bring in businesses that contribute to the global economy, not just the local hospitality Focus more on bringing in good, quality business that will attract newcomers. Focus less on multi-multimillion dollar fire stations and police stations and more on lowering cost of living for the middle class citizens. cost of living and very high appraisals pushing out all but the wealthy. Page 412 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |29 DO YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL COMMENTS REGARDING THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF COLLEGE STATION? Still need more "Family-oriented" things to do, but it is getting better. Retrofit and infill development, along with prudent resource conservation will make the city more prosperous and more resilient I love working for the City and I would like to let you know y'all are doing a wonderful job. I just think that we need new things for the people to do. College Station is a fast growing city and we need more things opening to compensate for that CS has experienced tremendous growth and development but is lacking in terms of public safety support, especially within the police department. Wages increase so employees can afford to live in city they work in More industrial I feel that we are 10 years behind the curve in planning for growth. After living and working in the area for the last 23 years, I could see in the early 2000s that the area was going to grow exponentially. Now we are like Austin playing catch up While we have more people moving here it doesn't appear we have an equal number of stores/restaurants. focusing on making this a place where families and seniors want to be - housing, amenities, job opportunities, etc. Families and seniors invest more in the community than college students PRESERVE THE WILDLIFE AND TREES AND STOP KILLING THEM I feel like the whole city lacks when it comes to traffic, roads, etc. We want people to move here & live here but we do not have the infrastructure to support all of these people. I become more concerned about the availability of water with each high rise and neighborhood that goes in. Page 413 of 414 FIVE-YEAR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENGAGEMENT REPORT |30 Page 414 of 414
