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 1999, AND VERNON SUPP. 2007, as amended from
time to time). Municipal facilities and services to the annexed areas described above 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 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 areas 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 contemplated or
projected in the annexed area.

areas.
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 Texas Department of Transportation and will
be added to the City's maintenance activities immediately following annexation. Maintenance
priorities are determined on a City-wide basis taking into consideration factors such as age, traffic

same level of service as similar facilities throughout the City. Service is provided on a “cost
recovery” basis, and permit fees partially offset the costs of services delivered. Construction
activities underway prior to annexation may continue provided that all construction after
annexation must comply with City codes and ordinances.
All permits required by City codes and ordinances must be obtained for construction underway at
the time of annexation. Permit fees will be waived for building construction underway prior to
annexation.
B. Planning and Development Services
Planning and development services will be made available on the effective date of the annexation.

Subdivision Regulations, Chapter 9 of the College Station Code of Ordinances.
Upon annexation, planning and development services will be provided by way of the Unified
Development Ordinance and other applicable codes and standards. The College Station City
Council adopted the current Comprehensive Plan in August of 1997. The Comprehensive Plan
contains a Land Use Plan that designates future land uses to manage the quality and quantity of
growth by matching land use intensity with planned infrastructure. Upon annexation, all
properties will be zoned A-O (Agricultural Open). The City's Comprehensive Plan will be used as
the basis for evaluating rezoning requests after properties are annexed.

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. Municipal services
to be provided within the annexed area may be any of the methods by which the City provides services to
other comparable areas. All services will be provided within the time provided in TEXAS LOCAL
GOVERNMENT CODE SEC. 43.056(B). The City may extend facilities under this plan or otherwise serve
this area through the use of Impact Fees as permitted under CHAPTER 395 OF THE TEXAS LOCAL
GOVERNMENT CODE.
Water and 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” in that utility line extensions are typically installed
by developers, in conjunction with major 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.
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 facilities that are privately owned and operated.
AREA 1
Water
The City of College Station currently holds the Water Certificate of Convenience and
Necessity (CCN) for the majority of Annexation Area 1. Generally, the area south of
F&B Road and east of Turkey Creek Road is within the City’s CCN. This area is served
by a small diameter water line located along the south side of a portion of F&B Road.
This line turns south and also serves properties along a portion of Turkey Creek Road
(see Exhibit “A”). The City of College Station currently maintains the waterline, water
meters and billing process.
The City is also constructing an 8” diameter water line along the north side of Raymond
Stotzer Parkway to serve the new City Cemetery. This line will be available for
extension to serve future development per the City’s water extension policy.
Brushy Water Supply Corporation holds the CCN service territory for a small portion of
Area 1. Therefore, this area will continue to receive its water supply from Brushy Water
Supply Corporation.
Wastewater
Properties within Annexation Area 1 are currently served by private on-site sewer facilities
(OSSF). As in other areas of College Station with similar topography, land use, and population
density, this area will remain on private systems until such time as significant development occurs
to warrant the extension of an organized sanitary sewer collection system.
82
9
AREA 2
Water
Annexation Area 2 is in the water CCN service territory of Wellborn Special Utility District
(WSUD). The City of College does not have the right to provide water service in annexation Area
2, therefore, no water infrastructure will be provided by the City in the area after annexation.
Wastewater
Properties within Annexation Area 2 are currently served by private on-site sewer facilities with
the exception of 18 homes in the Carter Lake Subdivision that are served by an aerated lagoon
operated by the Carter Lake Water Supply Corporation (see Exhibit “B”). The City of College
Station will assume ownership, operation, and maintenance of the Carter Lake wastewater
treatment facility (aerated lagoons) once the following is provided:
1) A survey of the existing wastewater collection lines;
2) Standard City easements for the existing wastewater collection lines;
3) The deed to the wastewater treatment lagoon property (or other acceptable means to operate
the facility);
4) Written agreements from the property owners served by the Carter Lake Water Supply
Corporation acknowledging that their private septic tanks will be cleaned every two years,
and;
5) Transfer of CCN and discharge permit from the Carter Lake Water Supply Corporation to
the City of College Station.
Once the City takes ownership, maintenance and operation of the wastewater treatment system,
the individuals connected to the system will pay a flat monthly sewer service fee per the City’s
adopted fee schedule.
As in other similarly developed areas of College Station, the remaining properties in Area 2 will
remain on private systems until such time as significant development occurs to warrant the
extension of an organized sanitary sewer collection system.
AREA 3a
Water
Water service in Annexation Area 3a is currently within the water service territory of WSUD. The
City of College Station does not have the right to serve areas outside of our CCN, therefore, no
water infrastructure will be provided to Area 3a after annexation.
Wastewater
Wastewater service in Area 3a is currently provided by private on-site sewer facilities. The City
recently extended the Steeplechase sewer line across Rock Prairie Road West, near I&GN Road.
Exhibit “C” illustrates this sewer service line. Future development in area 3a may access this
sewer line 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 until such
time as significant development occurs to warrant the extension of an organized sanitary sewer
collection system.

AREA 3b
Water
Water service in Annexation Area 3b is currently within the water service territory of WSUD. The
City of College Station does not have the right to serve areas outside of our CCN, therefore, no
water infrastructure will be provided to Area 3b after annexation.
Wastewater
Wastewater service in Area 3b is currently provided by the private on-site sewer facilities and the
City of College Station. The City serves Area 3b via a 12”sewer trunk line recently installed north
of Cain Road and extending through Las Palomas Subdivision. Exhibit “D” illustrates this sewer
service line. The City Council recently granted an exception to the sewer extension policy to Great
Oaks Subdivision and Oakland Ridge Subdivision, both located within Annexation Area 3b. This
exception allows future phases of those developments to connect to the City’s sewer system.
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 until such
time as significant development occurs to warrant the extension of an organized sanitary sewer
collection system.
AREA 4
Water
Annexation Area 4 is located entirely within the water CCN service territory of WSUD. The City of
College Station does not have the right to serve areas outside of our CCN. Therefore, no water
infrastructure will be provided by the City after annexation.
Wastewater
Waster water service for Annexation Area 4 is currently provided by the City of College Station
and private on-site sewer facilities. College Station principally serves Creek Meadows
Subdivision, a new residential development, via a gravity line and force main that runs along
Greens Prairie Trail and Greens Prairie Road West (see Exhibit “E”). The balance of Area 4 is
currently served by private OSSFs. As in other areas of College Station with similar topography,
land use, and population density, this will continue until such time as significant development
occurs to warrant the extension of an organized sanitary sewer collection system.
AREA 5 (Annexation area five was removed by the City Council at the 28 February 2008
meeting)
AREA 6
Water
Annexation Area 6 is located with the water CCN service territory of WSUD, therefore, no water
infrastructure will be provided to this area after annexation.
Wastewater
Currently, there are no structures located within Annexation Area 6. However, a new
development (Kyle View Estates) is proposed within annexation area 6 and the developer has
agreed to annexation as a condition to receive City sewer service. The developer proposes to
construct the necessary sewer line and lift station to connect Kyle View Estates to the City’ sewer
system (see Exhibit “F”). The City has entered into a Development Agreement with the developer,
whereby the developer will build a larger lift station on the east side of Wellborn Road, to enhance
84
11
the City’s sewage collection system and open a larger area for potential sewer service. As part of
the Development Agreement, the City is paying the difference for the increased sewer system
capacity.
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)
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 and Community Enhancement)
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 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.
The City will evaluate and update, as needed, its Strategic Plan to address the response time,
personnel, facility and equipment needs for these areas of the City as the annexed areas develop.
C. Solid Waste Collection
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
Right-of-way maintenance will be provided through the existing facilities at a level of service not
less than exists in the area immediately preceding annexation. The improvement and enlargement of
roads within existing rights-of-way will be included in future capital improvements programs as
practical and where needed to facilitate the maneuvering of emergency and sanitation service
vehicles.
E. Parks, Playgrounds and Swimming Pools
Parks and recreation services will be provided through the 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 Subdivision Regulations.
F. Other Public Building and Facilities
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.

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.

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 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
88
15
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 1999 and Vernon Supp. 2007).

Regular Agenda Item 2
Comprehensive Plan Amendment for 2950 Rock Prairie Road West
To: Glenn Brown, City Manager
From: Bob Cowell, AICP, Director of Planning & Development Services
Agenda Caption: Public hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion on a
Comprehensive Plan Amendment from Retail Neighborhood and Single-Family Residential,
Medium Density to Single-Family Residential, High Density for 10.44 acres located at 2950
Rock Prairie Road West generally located west of the intersection with Old Wellborn Road on
the north side of Rock Prairie Road West.
Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval
of Single Family Residential, High Density (7-0) at their February 21st meeting. Staff also
recommended approval.
Comprehensive Plan Review Criteria:
1. Changed or changing conditions in the subject area or the City: The subject area
was annexed into the City in 2002. In 2003, the City initiated a small area plan for the
area known as the Wellborn Road/I&GN Triangle. This area includes the subject
property and is bounded by Wellborn Rd to the east, Jones Butler (I&GN) Rd to the west,
Harvey Mitchell Pkwy to the north, and North Graham Rd to the south. The subject
property land uses of Retail Neighborhood for approximately 5 acres fronting Rock
Prairie Rd W and Single Family Residential Medium Density for approximately 5.5 acres
to the north of that.
The applicant is requesting Single Family Residential High Density in order to pursue a
rezoning request for a R-3, Townhouse zoning district. The applicant states that the
conditions warranting the Comprehensive Plan Amendment include “the increased
demand for townhouses for retirees, students and young professionals who want home
ownership, but without the maintenance requirements of a typical single family home
and yard.”
Other recent developments in the subject area include the development of the 20-acre
Williamsgate Subdivision which is about 125 feet west of the subject property. It was
rezoned to R-1, Single Family Residential in 2004 and has been subsequently platted.
Two properties along Old Wellborn Rd were rezoned to C-2 Commercial-Industrial in
2003 and 2004 and have been developed C-2 retail uses. These developments have
followed the land use pattern the small area plan provides. Wellborn Road, a Major
Arterial on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan will also be widened by TxDOT from two lanes to
six lanes with an anticipated letting of the project later this year.
2. Compatibility with the remainder of the Comprehensive Plan: Several land use
designations surround the subject property. Single Family Residential Medium Density is
to the north and west, Retail Neighborhood and Transitional to the east and Industrial /
Research & Development to the south of Rock Prairie Rd W.
Single Family Residential Medium Density allows for single family uses with densities
ranging between 3 to 6 dwelling units per acres while the Single Family Residential High
Density allows for single family uses with 7 to 9 dwelling units per acres. In addition to
98
detached single family, the High Density designation allows for townhouse zoning
districts.
Industrial / Research & Development is described in the Comprehensive Plan as “areas
permitting medium to large-scale development of tax-generating developments such as
industrial/R&D parks, technology centers, clean manufacturing, and
assembly/distribution.” The Industrial/R&D area south of Rock Prairie Road W is
approximately 43 acres in size and a significant portion has been platted as the Rock
Prairie Road West Business Park.
The Wellborn Road / I&GN Triangle small area plan created the land use designation of
“Transitional.” This designation replaced the Single Family Residential Medium Density
for approximately 63 acres along Old Wellborn Rd and adjacent to the railroad. About
38 acres of this area is south of Cain Road. The plan acknowledged that while single
family was not impossible next to the railroad, the market would likely place pressure for
other land uses. The small area plan states several different uses may be appropriate in
Transitional including: commercial/warehouse, light industrial, general retail, office and
multi-family. Since the designation allows for many different, including some intense
land uses, Staff recognizes that the request may help transition to lower intensity
developments to the west.
Retail Neighborhood anticipates “areas permitting neighborhood-scale development of
tax-generating developments such as small retail centers, service commercial,
restaurants, etc.” Including the subject property, the area has approximately 11 acres
of Retail Neighborhood. If this request is granted, almost 6 acres Retail Neighborhood
area will still remain on the property to the east. As for other planned commercial uses,
there is about 29 acres of land designated as Retail Regional along Wellborn Road near
Rock Prairie Road and another 10 acres at the intersection of Wellborn Road and Cain
Road. With a significant amount of other commercial designations available in the area
and some Retail Neighborhood being retained, Staff acknowledges the additional Retail
Neighborhood provided by the subject property as not being essential.

Regular Agenda 3
Summerglen Neighborhood Prevailing Overlay Rezoning
To: Glenn Brown, City Manager
From: Bob Cowell, AICP, Director of Planning & Development Services
Agenda Caption: Public hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion on an
ordinance rezoning Glenhaven Subdivision Phase 1 and 3 to apply a Neighborhood
Prevailing Overlay (NPO) for those properties located on Summerglen Drive between
University Drive East and Glenhaven Drive
Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously
recommended approval at their February 21 st meeting. Staff recommended approval
Rezoning Review Criteria:
1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The Single Family Overlays are
consistent with Comprehensive Plan Goal 3 – College Station should continue to protect,
preserve, and enhance existing and future neighborhoods. The Neighborhood Prevailing
Overlay is intended to promote development that is compatible with the existing
character of the neighborhood and preserve the unique characteristics of College
Station’s established neighborhoods while balancing the need for the redevelopment of
vacant or underutilized property.
The Summerglen Neighborhood Association represents 29 homes on Summerglen Drive
that were platted 20 years ago and is an established section of the Glenhaven
Subdivision. The character is primarily single-story residences with street-facing
garages.
2. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property
and with the character of the neighborhood: The immediately adjacent properties
are zoned for single-family and office, and the overlay is compatible with the adjacent
properties.
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
properties are all developed as single-family uses making it eligible for a Single-Family
Overlay.
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:
There is no change in use involved in the designation of a Single-Family Overlay.
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 property may continue to be maintained for single-family uses on the property and
marketed as such. The overlay will impact an owner’s ability to make additions or major
modifications to the existing structures, and the ability to rebuild on a lot.
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities
generally suitable and adequate for the proposed use: As an existing
108
neighborhood, adequate water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities
exist to support the uses in the overlay.

Regular Agenda Item 4
Rezoning for 3990 & 3994 University Drive East
To: Glenn Brown, City Manager
From: Bob Cowell, AICP, Director of Planning & Development Services
Agenda Caption: Public hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion on a
rezoning from A-O, Agricultural Open to C-1, General Commercial for a 28.34 acres tract
located at 3990 and 3994 University Drive East located approximately 1600 feet west of the
intersection of University Drive East and SH 30.
Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended
approval of the rezoning. Staff recommended approval.
Summary: The subject request was analyzed for compliance with the review criteria for a
rezoning as stated in the Unified Development Ordinance as follows:
REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The subject property is vacant and is
designated as Planned Development under the Land Use Plan. This area is part of the
30/60 Study, which calls for land uses that are complimentary to larger-scaled
development. A PDD, Planned Development District or standard zoning districts that
allow regional retail uses are considered appropriate for the area.
2. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby
property and with the character of the neighborhood: The proposed zoning is
compatible with existing zoning as commercial uses are compatible with other
commercial uses as well as multi-family land uses. The surrounding properties
include Park Hudson located across University Drive East in Bryan, Texas which
currently has multi-family, commercial and medical development. Crescent Pointe is
located to the west and includes a large office building and additional phases that
have multi-family development and offices. The Summit Crossing development
currently calls for town-homes and duplexes.
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 property is suitable for the proposed zoning district due in part to its access
to University Drive East, a Major Arterial on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan. In addition,
the district would be adjacent to an existing commercial district. The 30/60 Study
calls for uses that complement larger-scaled commercial development, such as
hotels and restaurants, and they should be incorporated into the larger
developments. Small stand-alone development should be avoided.
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 property’s current zoning district limits the potential for
development. A-O, Agricultural Open allows for agricultural uses, very low-intensity
residential, or open space.
116
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 owner is seeking to enhance the marketability of the property
through the proposed zone change. The applicant intends to market part of the
property as a hotel.
6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities
generally suitable and adequate for the proposed use: There is an existing
water main available to serve this property. Sanitary sewer service will have to be
extended from off-site and available capacity verified to serve this property.
Drainage is mainly to the south toward a well defined drainage way, also off-site.
Off-site utility easements will be required for sanitary and stormwater conveyance.
All utilities shall be designed in accordance with BCS Unified Design Guidelines at the
time of Platting and Site Development.

Matt Robinson, Staff Planner, presented the rezoning and recommended approval.
There was discussion in general regarding the rezoning.
Parviz Vessali, 110 Pershing, stated that he did not consider rezoning the property to
PDD because he had never had a good experience with a PDD rezoning and that it cuts
down on the timing of development.
Commissioner Dictson stated that it is frustrating to him that developers are having
problems with PDD rezonings.
Director Cowell stated it is not that the developers are having problems with PDD
rezonings, but that it is the length of time required in a PDD rezoning.
Commissioner Dictson asked if the owner owned the back of the property and Mr.
Robinson stated that he did own the back of the property.
