Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding approval of an Amendment to Resolution No.
1-22-15-2c, determining public need and necessity for the City to initiate, complete, and acquire
certain property located at the northwest corner of the intersection of West OSR and Sandy Point
Road, Bryan, Brazos County, Texas, for the purpose of the Well Field Collection System Loop
Project, by adding additional property descriptions to the Resolution.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:
·Core Services and Infrastructure
Recommendation(s): Staff recommends Council approval of the Amendment to a Resolution
Determining Public Need and Necessity for the Well Field Collection System Loop Project.
Summary: Council previously approved a Resolution authorizing the acquisition of a public utility
easement and temporary construction easement for the Well Field Collection System Loop Project.
The project will include the design, construction, and easement acquisition for a well field collection
line along West OSR in northwest Brazos County. This proposed line connection will incorporate a
redundant well field collection system and will also allow for flow to be diverted during maintenance
and/or outages in the well fields. This specific segment of line will connect the existing Well #6
Collection Line to the existing Well #7 Collection Line via a proposed 30" ductile iron water
transmission line along West OSR.
Since approval of the Resolution on January 22, 2015, Water Services has identified additional need
for fiber optic cable in the area to serve the water system. This will require an easement(s) on
property adjacent to the property previously described in the original Resolution. Attached is an
Amendment to Resolution Determining Public Need and Necessity and a revised Exhibit "A"
College Station, TX Printed on 4/2/2015Page 1 of 2

File #:15-0164,Version:1
reflecting the current properties that may require easements for the project. Approval of this
Amendment will authorize staff to negotiate for the purchase of the easements necessary to
complete the project.
Budget & Financial Summary: A total budget of $900,000 is included for this project in the Water
Capital Improvement Projects Fund. The design and land acquisition phases of this project are
currently in progress with construction scheduled for FY17.

Relationship to Strategic Goals:Diverse and Growing Economy
Recommendation(s):The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their March 19,
2015 meeting and voted 4-0 to recommend approval of the rezoning. Staff also recommends
approval with the condition that the impacts of any floodplain alterations be contained within the
subject properties.
Summary:This request is to rezone the subject property from GS General Suburban to GC General
Commercial and NAP Natural Areas Protected.
The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria for zoning map
amendments:
REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: A Comprehensive Plan amendment was
recently approved in December 2013 changing the designation from Suburban Commercial and
Natural Areas Reserved to General Commercial and Natural Areas-Reserved. This rezoning is in
compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map.
2. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood:
The existing zoning of the property is GS General Suburban which is intended for single-
family residential. This is not compatible with the existing zoning of nearby property which
consists of Office, Urban, and General Commercial zoning districts. The property directly to the
north is privately owned, zoned GS General Suburban and unplatted. The land north and
northwest of that is land owned by the City of College Station, which is currently being used as
parkland and greenway. There are no other single-family homes in the immediate area and the
applicant believes it is unlikely they will develop. As this property is located near the intersection
of two regionally significant roads (arterials and freeways), it is more suitable for GC General
Commercial.
3. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment:
The subject tracts are a suitable location for GC General Commercial. It is located with the
entire frontage along a major arterial. It is a concentrated node and not spread out as a strip. It
does not have existing surrounding single-family residential uses, although there is adjacent
single-family zoned property, it is owned by the City of College Station. A portion of this property
is undeveloped and planned for the Municipal Center District per the Comprehensive Plan while
the other portion is parkland serving as Steven C. Beachy Central Park. According to the
applicant, this zoning amendment will also promote private development in a distinct district
bounded by Harvey Mitchell Parkway and the Bee Creek floodplain.
4. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:
The subject tracts, with its proximity to Earl Rudder Freeway South and Harvey Mitchell
Parkway, are not highly suitable for single-family as there are no other single-family developments
within the immediate vicinity. The land that is just north and northwest of the subject tracts is

File #:15-0166,Version:1
zoned GS General Suburban, however is owned by the City of College Station and will not
develop as single-family. The Comprehensive Plan also designates the area to the north as
Natural Areas - Reserved.
5. Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment:
The applicant has stated that the development of this project could potentially include the
design of a hotel, restaurants, and/or a variety of retail stores. "The property is not of the size to
handle a 'big box' retailer, so fears of 'big box' at this location are unfounded".
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use: Water service to the tract may be provided by
existing 12- and 24-inch water mains running along the north side of Harvey Mitchell Parkway
South. There is a proposed master waterline which will connect to the existing water main along
Harvey Mitchell Parkway South and run north along the Earl Rudder Freeway South Frontage
Road. Domestic and fire flow demands may necessitate future water main extensions at the time
of site development. There is currently an 18-inch sanitary sewer main along the east side of the
tract adjacent to the Earl Rudder Freeway South Frontage Road available to serve the property.
The sanitary sewer master plan has identified this sanitary sewer line as needing to be upsized in
the future. The proposed GC General Commercial zoning may create more intensity; however,
preliminary analysis of the system has indicated that there is available capacity to serve this type
of development.
The subject tract is located in the Bee Creek drainage basin and contains FEMA Special
Flood Hazard Area. No mitigation or analysis has been submitted for the proposed floodplain
encroachment to date. Development of the subject tract will be required to meet the City's "No
Adverse Impact" requirements of the Flood Ordinance and B/CS Unified Storm Water Design
Guidelines. Site development impacts on the drainage system will be evaluated further at that
time.

Place, Block 1, Lot 2a-1b, generally located at 2504 Texas Avenue South, more generally located near the
southwest corner of Texas Avenue South and Southwest Parkway.
Relationship to Strategic Goals:Diverse Growing Economy
Recommendation(s):The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their March 20,
2015 meeting and voted 4-0 to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit. Staff also
recommends approval.
Summary:This request is for a conditional use permit - use and site to extend an existing 35-foot
tall wireless telecommunications tower to a new height of 70-feet.
The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria for conditional use permits:
REVIEW CRITERIA
1.The proposed use shall meet the purpose and intent of the Unified Development Ordinance
(UDO) and meet all minimum standards for this type of use per the UDO.
The applicant has met all minimum standards per the UDO for a major wireless
College Station, TX Printed on 4/2/2015Page 1 of 3

File #:15-0167,Version:1
telecommunications tower. The proposal is to extend an existing tower to allow for improved
range and service availability related to cellular telecommunications. The tower extension will be
constructed to allow for collocation of other telecommunications providers.
2.The proposed use shall be consistent with the development policies and goals and
objectives as embodied in the Comprehensive Plan for development in the City.The subject
tract is shown on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map as General
Commercial. This land use designation is generally for areas that include services for the entire
community and its visitors. Enhancing the capability and functionality of an existing service would
be meeting the intentions outlined within the Comprehensive Plan.
3.The proposed use shall not be detrimental to the health, welfare, or safety of the
surrounding neighborhood or its occupants, not be substantially or permanently injurious
to neighboring property. The applicant is looking to improve overall coverage including indoor
coverage and adding capacity to prevent dropped calls. It is approximately 256 feet away from
neighboring R-6 High Density Multi-family zoning and 220 feet from the commercial structures to
the north. These distances exceed the minimum requirements of the UDO.
4.The proposed site plan and circulation plan shall be harmonious with the character of the
surrounding area. The proposed tower is located approximately 455 feet from Texas Avenue
with the base being screened by a 6-foot fence. Access is taken from an existing driveway on the
site. It is located in a GC General Commercial zoning district allowing it to be harmonious with
the character of what would be permitted in the immediate surrounding area .
5.The proposed use shall not negatively impact existing uses in the area or in the City
through impacts on public infrastructure such as roads, parking facilities, electrical, or
water and sewer systems, or on public services such as police and fire protection, solid
waste collection, or the ability of existing infrastructure and services to adequately provide
services.The proposed tower will be an unmanned facility which will not require either water or
wastewater service. The tower will have minimal impact on the surrounding infrastructure or
public services.
6.The proposed use shall not negatively impact existing uses in the area or in the City.
The GC General Commercial zoning district provides land for a multitude of retail, and sales
services to meet the needs of the entire community. The tower extension is not expected to
negatively impact the existing uses in the area, but is working to improve conditions related to
cellular communication services and availability.

of the Official Records of Brazos County, Texas, generally located south of Market Street between

Relationship to Strategic Goals:Diverse Growing Economy
Recommendations:The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board considered the additional parkland
fees as one of the proposed community benefits to help offset the proposed meritorious modifications
at their March 10, 2015 meeting and voted 6-0 to recommend approval. The Planning and Zoning
Commission considered this item at their March 19, 2015 meeting and voted 4-0 to recommend
approval of the rezoning request. Staff also recommends approval.
Summary:This request amends the existing PDD Planned Development District for the subject
property. The PDD zoning with Concept Plan were originally approved by Council in November 2008
and a revised PDD Concept Plan was approved by staff in November 2010. This rezoning amends a
portion of the original PDD by removing a small commercial area along Holleman Drive South and
replacing it with multi-family use. The potential future realignment of North Dowling Road has also

been moved to the west to allow it to occur at the existing Market Street intersection with Holleman
Drive South, which is planned to be signalized with the development in the area.
The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria for zoning map
amendments:
REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject area is designated on the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map as Urban and Natural Areas Reserved
and is located in Growth Area VI. The Urban designation is generally for areas that should have a
very intense level of development activities. These areas will tend to consist of townhomes,
duplexes, and high-density apartments. General commercial and office uses, business parks, and
vertical mixed-use may also be permitted within growth and redevelopment areas. The Natural
Areas Reserved designation is generally for areas that represent a constraint to development and
that should be preserved for their natural function or open space qualities. These areas include
floodplains and riparian buffers, as well as recreation facilities. The proposed zoning permits multi
-family and retains natural open space in an existing pond area and floodplain. The proposed land
use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
2. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and
with the character of the neighborhood: The subject tract is part of an existing PDD Planned
Development District that has other multi-family and commercial uses. The property to the east is
owned by the City of College Station and is anticipated to be used for expansion of the existing
water facilities. The property to the south across North Dowling Road is developed as rural
residential lots. The Concept Plan retains a 35-foot buffer area along North Dowling Road that
includes landscaping, fence, and berm to help mitigate the intensity of the development with the
less intense development to the south.
3. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: The proposed PDD
zoning allows for multi-family uses and retains the existing pond area. Multi-family development is
suitable for the subject tract in that it has a relative proximity to the Texas A&M University campus
and is located in an area of largely other multi-family developments.
4. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The existing
PDD Planned Development District allows for multi-family uses and a small commercial site along
Holleman Drive South. The subject tract is suitable for these uses.
5. Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the
district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The applicant
states the marketability of the multi-family is still very viable though the small commercial area is
very difficult. Commercial areas tend to develop following residential development.
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally
suitable and adequate for the proposed use: The subject tract is located adjacent to a 12-inch
water main along Holleman Drive South and an 8-inch water main at the intersection of Junction
Boys Road and Brownstone Drive. An 8-inch sanitary sewer main stubs to the tract from the
property to the west. New water mains and sanitary sewer lines will be extended through the
College Station, TX Printed on 4/2/2015Page 2 of 5

File #:15-0169,Version:1
property to support future development. The existing utilities appear to be adequate to support
the proposed zoning on the property.
The subject property is located in the Whites Creek Drainage Basin and development of the
subject property is required to meet the minimum standards of the City's Storm Water Design
Guidelines. The subject property is encroached by FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area - Zone A, in
which no base flood elevations have been determined.
The subject property is located adjacent to two roadways identified on the Thoroughfare Plan,
Holleman Drive South (4-lane major collector) and North Dowling Road (2-lane major collector).
The alignment of the proposed public roadway would allow for the potential realignment of North
Dowling Road to Holleman Drive South at the intersection with Market Street. A Traffic Impact
Analysis (TIA) was submitted with the rezoning. The signalization of the existing intersection of
Holleman Drive South and Market Street would likely be warranted and has been identified as
mitigation with development in the area. Final traffic mitigation measures will be determined prior
to site development.
REVIEW OF CONCEPT PLAN
The Concept Plan provides an illustration of the general layout of the proposed building and parking
areas as well as other site related features. In proposing a PDD, an applicant may also request
variations to the general zoning, platting and site development standards provided that those
variations are balanced with innovative design or demonstrated community benefits from the
proposed development. The Unified Development Ordinance provides the following review criteria
as the basis for reviewing PDD Concept Plans:
1.The proposal will constitute an environment of sustained stability and will be in harmony
with the character of the surrounding area;
2.The proposal is in conformity with the policies, goals, and objectives of the
Comprehensive Plan, and any subsequently adopted Plans, and will be consistent with the
intent and purpose of this Section;
3.The proposal is compatible with existing or permitted uses on abutting sites and will not
adversely affect adjacent development;
4.Every dwelling unit need not front on a public street but shall have access to a public
street directly or via a court, walkway, public area, or area owned by a homeowners
association;
5.The development includes provision of adequate public improvements, including, but not
limited to, parks, schools, and other public facilities;
6.The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, welfare, or
materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and
7.The development will not adversely affect the safety and convenience of vehicular,
bicycle, or pedestrian circulation in the vicinity, including traffic reasonably expected to be
generated by the proposed use and other uses reasonably anticipated in the area considering
existing zoning and land uses in the area.
General
The Concept Plan is mainly multi-family with some open spaces areas. The commercial pad site
identified on the existing PDD (area B3) has been removed from the proposed Concept Plan. The
potential future realignment of North Dowling Road has been moved to the west to allow it to occur at
the existing Market Street intersection with Holleman Drive South, which is planned to be signalized
with the development in the area.
College Station, TX Printed on 4/2/2015Page 3 of 5

File #:15-0169,Version:1
The proposed multi-family will remain based on R-4 Multi-Family zoning district requirements which
has a maximum density of 20 units per acre. The multi-family areas are proposed to be gated with
main entry/exit boulevard driveways along the proposed Junction Boys Road and an exit only
driveways on Holleman Drive South and North Dowling Road. The maximum height of buildings will
be limited to three stories and architecture elements that may be as tall as 70 feet. These heights are
the same as the existing PDD and similar to other multi-family developments in the area.
A multi-use path is proposed along the proposed public road through the tract and the private
hike/bike trail along the portion of North Dowling Road carries over from the existing PDD. The
hike/bike trail systems is intended to provide connection between the residential and commercial
areas of the original PDD as well as provide recreational opportunities for the residents.
A 35-foot to 50-foot wide buffer area remains proposed along the existing North Dowling Road to
buffer the proposed multi-family areas from the adjacent single-family and rural areas. This buffer
area will consist of a separating berm averaging 4 feet in height with a fence located on the
development side of the berm and landscaping. The berm transition up and down so as to along 70
percent of North Dowling Road's frontage. The buffer will serve as a community benefit as multi-
family developments are not required to buffer along rights-of-way and this will help transition the
developments to the existing single-family and rural area outside of the City.
Meritorious Modifications
The applicant has requested the following meritorious modifications:
·Allow for block length variances along North Dowling Road. This modification request
carries forward from the existing PDD approved in 2008. The current block length requirement
is 660 feet for areas designated Urban in the Comprehensive Plan. A public roadway is
proposed to bisect the tract and there are few alternatives to this remaining portion of the
original PDD area.
·Allow for 20-foot curb radii at intersections to create a more pedestrian friendly
environment. This modification request carries forward from the existing PDD approved in
2008. The allowable range of curb return radii is between 25 and 30 feet. The option to utilize
a tighter radii will shorten the distance for pedestrians to cross an intersection and create a
more pedestrian friendly environment.
·Allow for cottages (single detached units) and duplexes to be constructed within the PDD
(R-4 based) category. This modification request carries forward from the existing PDD
approved in 2008. The new MF Multi-Family district adopted in December 2014 allows this by
right though the applicant has chosen to retain the R-4 Multi-Family district as the base district
that does not allow these units on the same lot as multi-family units.
·Allow five-bedroom units types to allow up to five unrelated individuals in a dwelling unit.
This modification has been added to clarify what was already anticipated with the existing
PDD approved in 2008. A mix of three, four, and five-bedroom units with an average of 4.31
bedrooms per unit is proposed with the development. The applicant is proposing to provide
additional parkland dedication fees for the additional bedrooms over the average of four
bedrooms per unit as described in the Community Benefits section.
Community Benefits
The applicant has identified the following community benefits to offset the proposed meritorious
modifications:
· The stormwater detention will be provided in the irrigation pond area. This feature along
College Station, TX Printed on 4/2/2015Page 4 of 5
powered by Legistar™
File #:15-0169,Version:1
Holleman Drive South provides for a nice view corridor from the street.
· There is a hike/bike trail along the internal public street that the public will be able to
enjoy.
· There is only one access driveway from the residential area as well as the one connection
of the public road to North Dowling Road. Keeping this number to a minimum will help ease
the North Dowling Road traffic concerns that may arise from the adjacent single family
residential properties.
· Additional parkland dedication fees to pay the cost differential between having all four
bedroom units and the additional bedrooms provided as a result of having five-bedroom units.
The development currently anticipates an average of 4.31 bedrooms per unit. The Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board recommended approval of this community benefit at their March
10, 2015 meeting.

EXHIBIT A
That Chapter 12, “Unified Development Ordinance,” Section 12-4.2, “Official Zoning Map,” of
the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, is hereby amended as follows:
The following property is rezoned from PDD Planned Development District to PDD Planned
Development District to amend the Concept Plan layout and uses:
ORDINANCE NO.__________________ Page 3
ORDINANCE NO.__________________ Page 4
EXHIBIT B
General Requirements
The proposed multi-family is based on R-4 Multi-Family zoning district requirements which has
a maximum density of 20 units per acre. As shown on the Concept Plan, the multi-family areas
are gated with main entry/exit boulevard driveways along the proposed public road and potential
exit only driveways on Holleman Drive South and North Dowling Road. The maximum height
of buildings will be limited to three stories and architecture elements that may be as tall as 70
feet.
A multi-use path is proposed along the proposed public road through the tract and a private
hike/bike trail continues along the portion of North Dowling Road to the west of the public road.
As described on the Concept Plan, a 35-foot to 50-foot wide buffer area is required along the
existing North Dowling Road that will consist of berms, landscaping, and a fence. The buffer
will serve as a community benefit as multi-family developments are not required to buffer along
rights-of-way and this will help transition the development to the existing single-family and rural
area across and down North Dowling Road.
Meritorious Modifications
Allow for block length and block perimeter variances along North Dowling Road.
Allow for 20-foot curb radii at intersections to create a more pedestrian friendly
environment.
Allow for cottages (single detached units) and duplexes to be constructed within the PDD
(R-4 based) category.
Allow five-bedroom units types to allow up to five unrelated individuals in a dwelling
unit with each bedroom limited to one occupant.
Community Benefits
The following community benefits to offset the proposed meritorious modifications have also
been identified by the applicant:
Stormwater detention will be provided in the irrigation pond area. This feature along
Holleman Drive South provides for a nice view corridor from the street.
There is a hike/bike trail along the internal public street that the public will be able to
enjoy.
There is only one access driveway from the residential area as well as the one connection
of the public road to North Dowling Road. Keeping this number to a minimum will help
ease the North Dowling Road traffic concerns that may arise from the adjacent single
family residential properties.
Additional parkland dedication fees to pay the cost differential between having all four
bedroom units and the additional bedrooms provided as a result of having five-bedroom
units. The development currently anticipates an average of 4.31 bedrooms per unit.

CITY OF COLLEGE STATION SERVICE PLAN
FOR THE AREA TO BE ANNEXED
EFFECTIVE MAY 8, 2015
I. ANNEXATION AREA
The annexation area is located on the southwest side of the City of College Station, in the City’s
Extraterritorial Jurisdiction. The area is illustrated in Figure 1 and generally described below.
Area Description - approximately 233 acres generally bordered by Royder Road, FM 2154
(AKA Wellborn Road), and Greens Prairie Trail.
II. INTRODUCTION
This service plan has been prepared in accordance with the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT
CODE, Sections 43.021, 43.065, and 43.056(b)-(o) (Vernon 2008, AND VERNON SUPP. 2009,
as amended from time to time). Municipal facilities and services to the annexed area described
above and illustrated in Figure 1 will be provided or made available on behalf of the City in
accordance with the following plan. This plan provides a program under which the City of
College Station will provide full municipal services to the annexed areas. All services will be
provided within the time provided in the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE, Section
43.056(B).
This Service Plan does not:
require the creation of another political subdivision;
require a landowner in the area to fund the capital improvements necessary to
provide municipal services in a manner inconsistent with Chapter 395, TEXAS
LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE; or
provide services in the area in a manner that would have the effect of reducing,
by more than a negligible amount, the level of fire and police protection and
emergency medical services provided within the corporate boundaries of the
municipality before annexation.
The level of services, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance provided to the annexed
area is comparable to the level of services, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance
available in other parts of the City with topography, land use, and population density similar to
those reasonably contemplated or projected in the annexed area.

including defibrillation, medical administration, IV therapy, advanced airway
management, and initial treatment of injuries.
D. Solid Waste Collection
The College Station Public Works Department will provide fee-based solid waste
collection service for residential and commercial customers. Customers in the annexed
area may elect to continue using a private solid waste management service provider for
a period of two years after the effective date of annexation in accordance with provisions
of the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE. The City will not charge a fee to a person
who continues to use the services of a privately-owned solid waste management service
provider during the aforementioned two-year period.
Residential Service – Residential solid waste collection (including brush and bulk items)
is provided once per week. All residential service will be provided at a point of collection
adjacent to, and accessible from, a public right-of-way or an improved surface acceptable
to the City. Residential solid waste collection vehicles will not conduct operations on
private property. However, residential service may be provided on private streets that
comply with the Sanitation Division’s requirements for surface material, vehicle
clearance, and turning radii. In the case of multiple residences located on a privately-
owned road or drive, the City may require the establishment of a mass collection point
at an area adjacent to the nearest public right-of-way. The City will provide one solid
waste container per residential account. Additional containers are available for an
additional fee.
Commercial Service - Containers and collection points may be located on private
property provided they can be easily accessed from a public right -of-way and the route
of access and the collection point meets the Sanitation Division’s surface requirements,
vehicle clearance, and turning radii. The City will provide standard commercial
containers.
Utility Account Required - In order to secure solid waste collection services in the
annexed areas, each property owner must establish a utility account with the City of
College Station. The City will not be responsible for damage to private drives, private
streets, or parking areas caused by trucks servicing solid waste containers.
E. Water and Wastewater Facilities
The City of College Station will provide water and wastewater service to areas that are
not located within the certificated service territory of another utility. The level of water
and wastewater service, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance provided in the
annexed area will be comparable to the level of services, infrastructure, and infrastructure
maintenance available in other parts of the City before annexation with topography, land
use, and population density similar to those reasonably contemplated or projected in the
area. Municipal services to be provided within the annexed area may be provided by any
of the methods in which the City provides services to other comparable areas.
ORDINANCE NO.__________________ Page 11
F. Roads and Streets
The Public Works Department will maintain public roads and streets at a level
comparable to the maintenance prior to annexation. These services include emergency
pavement repair and preventative street maintenance. Right-of-way mowing activities
along State highways are addressed in the City's maintenance agreement with the Texas
Department of Transportation and will be added to the City's maintenance activities

IV. WATER AND WASTEWATER SERVICE PROVISION
This Water and Wastewater Service Plan (“Plan”) provides a program under which the City of
College Station will provide full municipal services to the annexed area. For the purpose of
this plan, “full municipal services” includes water and sewer services provided by the City
within its full-purpose boundaries. The level of water and sewer service, infrastructure, and
infrastructure maintenance provided in the annexed area will be comparable to the level of
services, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance available in other parts of the City
before annexation with topography, land use, and population density similar to those
reasonably contemplated or projected in the area. The City will not provide water or
wastewater service in areas where another entity holds the CCN unless or until the City of
College Station acquires the CCN. Municipal services may be provided by any of the methods
by which the City provides services to other comparable areas within the City. All services will
be provided within the time provided in the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE SEC.
43.056(B). The City may extend facilities under this plan or otherwise serve these areas through
the use of Impact Fees as permitted under CHAPTER 395 OF THE TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT
CODE.
Wastewater facilities for future development that increases densities beyond the capital
improvements specified in this plan will be extended in accordance with the City’s Water and
Wastewater policy in existence at the time of development. The water and wastewater
extension policy is discussed in Section V, Water and Wastewater Capital Improvements. In
general, the policy for extension of utility service is development driven, meaning that utility
line extensions are typically installed by developers, in conjunction with development projects.
The City may accept ownership and maintenance of major facilities, such as gravity sewer
lines, manholes, lift stations and/or wastewater package plants, as required by the particular
development. The City may elect to pay for upgrades or oversize of infrastructure projects
being installed by developers. As an area develops, developers or homeowners extend water
distribution and wastewater collection lines to individual lots.
Generally, until an area becomes densely populated, the cost of utility extension is not feasible
to be borne by a few lot owners. Also, in the case of wastewater treatment, developments with
large lots will normally be constructed with on-site sewage treatment facilities that are privately
owned and operated.
Water
The annexation area is in the water CCN service territory of Wellborn Special Utility District.
The City of College Station does not have the right to provide water service in the annexation
area, therefore, no water infrastructure will be provided by the City after annexation.
Wastewater
Wastewater service in the annexation area is currently provided by private on -site sewer
facilities. The City recently installed a 12-inch gravity sewer main along the west side of
Royder Road. Future development within the annexation area may access this sewer main
through a combination of gravity lines and/or force mains.
As in other areas of College Station with similar topography, land use, and population density,
the area currently served by private sewer treatment systems will remain on private systems
ORDINANCE NO.__________________ Page 14
until such time as significant development occurs to warrant the extension of an organized
sanitary sewer collection system.
V. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
Should the City make capital improvements to serve the annexed areas, the City reserves the
right to levy an impact fee to the properties annexed according to Chapter 395 of the TEXAS
LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE and the City's Code of Ordinances. The City may, from time to
time, include construction of new, expanded or replacement facilities in its Capital
Improvements Program (CIP). Facilities to be included in the CIP shall be determined on a
City-wide basis. Priorities shall be established by the CIP plans of the City, projected growth
trends, and the City Council through its development plans and policies.
A. Police Protection (including animal control)
No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide Police Services to the
proposed annexation area. Police protection will be provided to the annexed areas
through existing City facilities at a level of service comparable to the level of service in
other parts of the City before annexation with topography, land use, and population
density similar to those reasonable contemplated or projected in the area.
B. Fire Protection (including EMS)
No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide Fire Protection to the
proposed annexation area. Fire protection will be provided to the annexed areas through
existing City facilities and mutual aid agreements at a level of service comparable to the

and population density similar to those reasonable contemplated or projected in the area.
C. Solid Waste Collection
No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide solid waste collection to
the proposed annexation area. Solid waste collection services will be provided to the
annexed areas through the City's existing facilities or through franchise agreements with
private services at a level of service comparable to the level of service in other parts of
the City before annexation with topography, land use and population density similar to
those reasonable contemplated or projected in the area.
D. Maintenance of Public Roads and Streets
No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide right-of-way maintenance.
Maintenance will be provided through the existing facilities at a level of service not less
than exists in the area immediately preceding annexation. Any future improvement
and/or enlargement of roads within existing rights-of-way will be included in future
capital improvement programs in compliance with the City’s thoroughfare plan and/or
as needed to facilitate the maneuvering of emergency and sanitation service vehicles.

services to the proposed annexation area. Parks and recreation services will be provided
ORDINANCE NO.__________________ Page 15
through existing facilities at a level of service not less than exists in the area immediately
preceding annexation.
Additional park development in the annexed areas will be addressed through the
development standards and procedures of the City as residential development occurs.
Such park development includes, but is not limited to, dedication of park land and/or
money in lieu of land in accordance with the City of College Station Unified
Development Ordinance and an existing interlocal agreement with the College Station
Independent School District.
F. Other Public Buildings and Facilities
No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide other public buildings and
facilities to the proposed annexation area. Other public facilities, buildings or services
will be provided through the existing facilities at a level of service not less than exists in
the area immediately preceding annexation.
WATER AND WASTEWATER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
The water and wastewater utility extension policy of the City of College Station is as
follows:
The cost of off-site extension of water and wastewater facilities to serve a lot, tract, plat,
or land development shall be borne by the owner or developer of the lot, tract, plat, or
land by direct installation or through the use of Impact Fees. Where such extension is
consistent with plans for the development of the City and its utility system the City may,
by decision of the City Council, participate in the cost of construction so as to provide
for additional capacity for the overall development of an area.
The cost of water and wastewater facilities necessary to serve existing lots or new
development within a subdivision plat or land development shall be borne by the lot
owner or developer of the plat or land by direct installation or through the use of Impact
Fees. Standard tap fees or other installation fees in effect on a citywide basis are in
addition to impact fees levied.
Water
No water infrastructure will be provided to this area after annexation. The annexation
area is located within the water CCN service territory of Wellborn SUD. Therefore, the
properties will continue to be served by Wellborn SUD after annexation.
Wastewater
Properties within the annexation area are either vacant or served by private on-site
sewer treatment systems. Properties currently served by private on-site systems will
continue to be served by said systems until such time development and/or
redevelopment warrants the extension of an organized sanitary collection system.
ORDINANCE NO.__________________ Page 16
VI. LEVEL OF SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED
It is the intent of the City of College Station to provide the level of services required by State
law. The City Council finds and determines that the services, infrastructure and infrastructure
maintenance proposed by this plan are comparable to that provided to other parts of the City
with topography, land use, and population density reasonably similar to the annexed area and
will not reduce the level of services available to the territory prior to annexation.
Nothing in this plan shall require the City to provide a uniform level of full municipal services
to each area of the City, including the annexed area, if different characteristics of topography,
land use, and population density are considered a sufficient basis for providing different levels
of service.
VII. TERM
This service plan shall be valid for a term of ten (10) years. Renewal of the service plan shall
be at the discretion of the City Council.
VIII. AMENDMENTS
The service plan may be amended if the City Council determines at a public hearing that
changed conditions or subsequent occurrences make this service plan unworkable or obsolete.
The City Council may amend the service plan to conform to the changed conditions or
subsequent occurrences pursuant to the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE, Section 43.056
(VERNON 2008 and VERNON SUPP. 2009).
