Mr. Schubert also stated that a TIA was performed for a multi-family development.
Commissioner Guerra asked if the turn lane was part of the mitigation recommendation, and if the developer was responsible for its installation. Transportation Planning Coordinator Schubert stated that the intersection became failing when considering the background growth, and the F&B Road approach was the weak link. Mr. Schubert
also stated that the percentage of traffic from the multi-family development was below the threshold to construct a turn lane. Chairperson Kee opened the public hearing.

Case #CPA2019-000005 (Note: Final action of this item will be considered at the September 12, 2019 City Council Meeting – Subject to change.) Senior Planner Constantino presented the Comprehensive Plan Amendment to the Commission, recommending approval. Commissioner Guerra noted the existing and proposed use for the property, and asked why the property is changing to a more extreme land use. Mr. Guerra provided alternative land use options. Senior Planner Constantino stated that the area is zoned M1 Light Industrial which is a retired
zoning district. Mr. Constantino stated that medical office use is currently non-conforming, and a land use amendment would allow a change in zoning to General Commercial.
Director of Planning & Development Services Prochazka stated that as a City, we would like to capitalize on the property in the corridor of Veteran’s Park by changing the land use to General Commercial and that industrial is no longer appropriate in this area.
Chairperson Kee opened the public hearing. No one spoke. Chairperson Kee closed the public hearing. Commissioner Oldham motioned to recommend approval of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Commissioner Christiansen seconded the motion. Commissioner Guerra stated that the area surrounding property should be preserved and protected,
and that General Commercial zoning is not appropriate. The motion passed (5-2) with Commissioners Guerra and Cunha voting in opposition. 11.

September 5, 2019 P&Z Meeting Minutes Page 6 of 7
Commissioner Mather stated that there seems to be a disconnect between the land use and zoning.
Mr. Mather clarified existing and proposed zoning. Chairperson Kee stated that the staff report explained that a TIA was not required for this property.
Ms. Kee asked for the most intense use that can occur on General Commercial developments. Senior Planner Constantino stated that the property intends to remain in current use for some time.
Mr. Constantino also stated that hotel and gas station developments would be more intense uses, which would trigger a TIA with a site plan application. Commissioner Guerra asked why the Office zoning district was not used for the property. Senior Planner Constantino stated that given that development in area is zoned General Commercial for intended growth, a General Commercial zoning opens up development potential in the corridor. Director of Planning & Development Services Prochazka stated that General Commercial is a desired zoning based on policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
Property Owner, Tim Ware, 3030 University Drive East, College Station, was available to speak on the rezoning.
Chairperson Kee opened the public hearing. No one spoke.
Chairperson Kee closed the public hearing. There was general discussion amongst the Commission. Commissioner Osborne motioned to recommend approval of the Rezoning. Commissioner Mather seconded the motion. Commissioner Guerra stated that General Commercial zoning is too intense for a region trying to protect and preserve natural areas. Mr. Guerra further stated that an Office zoning would have been more appropriate.
Commissioner Osborne spoke on his motion, stating that this property is contained within a major corridor through town, the City should take advantage of development in this prime area. The motion passed (6-1) with Commissioner Guerra voting in opposition.
12. Discussion and possible action on future agenda items – A Planning & Zoning Member may inquire about a subject for which notice has not been given. A statement of specific factual information or the recitation of existing policy may be given.

Project Overview The property is located outside of College Station City
Limits in the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) and proposes
to subdivide the tract into 28 single family residential lots
and a lot that will be used for detention. The preliminary
plan is subject to change dependent on the pending status
of jurisdictional waters by the United States Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE). The current layout assumes that there
are no USACE jurisdictional waters on the property.
Parkland Dedication $625 per lot will be required at the time of Final Plat.
Traffic Impact Analysis Not required
Compliant with Comprehensive Plan
(including Master Plans) and Unified
Development Ordinance
Yes, with the exception of waivers being requested with
this preliminary plan.
Compliant with Subdivision Regulations Yes, with the exception of the waivers being requested for
UDO Section 8.4.C.3 ‘Street Projections’, 8.4.C.8
‘Geometric Standards, Street Design Criteria’, and 8.4.E
‘Blocks’.
Staff Recommendation Staff is recommending denial of all waivers. If any waiver is
denied, the plan must be denied as it would not be in
compliance with the Subdivision Regulations of the Unified
Development Ordinance (UDO). If all waivers are granted,
the preliminary plan should be approved contingent upon
receiving the letter of determination from USACE that
there are no jurisdictional waters on the property.

Regular Agenda
Comprehensive Plan Amendment – University Terrace Apartments
To: Planning & Zoning Commission
From: Alaina Chafin, AICP, CNU-A, Land Development Planning Administrator
Agenda Caption: Public Hearing, presentation, discussion, and possible action regarding an ordinance
amending the Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use and Character Map from Natural Areas Reserved
to Urban and Natural Areas Reserved for approximately 2.7 acres of land located at 1700 George Bush
Drive. Case #CPA2019-000004 (Note: Final action of this item will be considered at the October 10th City
Council Meeting- Subject to change.)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and
Character Map amendment.
Summary: The applicant has requested an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use
and Character Map from Natural Areas Reserved to Urban and Natural Areas Reserved to better align
with the current zoning and multi-family development existing on the property, and to prepare the
property for marketability and potential redevelopment in the future. The Urban land use 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.
REVIEW CRITERIA
1. Changed or changing conditions in the subject area of the City: The subject property has a future
land use designation of Natural Areas Reserved, but is currently entitled to more intense land uses
through its current zoning of R-6 High Density Multi-Family.
The subject property and immediate area is designated as Natural Areas Reserved on the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map, recognizing Wolf Pen Creek and its
Tributary that are located throughout the area. Property located to the north across George Bush
Drive is under the jurisdiction of the Texas A&M University System and along with Texas A&M
University land use designation, carries Natural Areas Reserved. Natural Areas Reserved 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
recreational facilities.
The subject property was included in the Southside Area Neighborhood Plan and was generally
referred to as The Redmond Terrace Subdivision – Area 1. The Redmond Terrace Subdivision
includes single-family development designated as Neighborhood Conservation on the Future Land
Use Map, commercial uses designated as General Commercial and Redevelopment Area along Texas
Avenue (a major commercial corridor), and Wolf Pen Creek tributary designated as Natural Areas –
Reserved. The area also includes several multifamily developments that fall in the Natural Areas –
Reserved area. The focus of property owners in Area 1 was to conserve the existing larger-lot single
family development pattern, hence the designation of Neighborhood Conservation for the single
family area.
The subject property is zoned R-6 High Density Multi-Family, and is currently developed as an
apartment complex built in the 1960s, with the majority of the property located outside of the
floodplain. Located in the core of College Station and within walking distance from Texas A&M
University, the area has seen significant growth with the redevelopment of the Redmond Terrace
Shopping Center in 2003, redevelopment of the Center at Aggieland Shopping Center in 2014, and
the construction of the new TRYP hotel and Redmond Condos recently completed in 2016.
Given this increased development activity in the area and the limited area currently impacted by
floodplain, the proposed amendment from Natural Areas Reserved to Urban and Natural Areas
Reserved would be more representative of the preferred future land use of the subject area and
continue to reflect the current zoning of the property and the multi-family development that exists
today.
2. Compatibility with the existing uses, development patterns, and character of the immediate area
concerned, the general area, and the City as a whole: The immediate area consists of Texas A&M
University on the north side of George Bush Drive, commercial shopping centers and a hotel located
along Texas Avenue to the east, multi-family and single-family development to the south, and a
single-family neighborhood to the west with the majority of the homes being rental property.
The subject property shown in the image above (highlighted in blue) is zoned R-6 High Density Multi-
Family and was platted in 1958. The 2.7-acre property provides housing with walking distance to
Texas A&M as well as shopping and places of employment. While Urban is a more intense land use
than the current land use designation of Natural Areas Reserved, the proposed designation reflects
the existing land use of the subject property which is entitled for intense apartment land use and
has been functioning as an apartment complex since the construction of the building in 1964. The
proposed amendment is compatible with the development that exists and is currently happening in
the subject area. The Urban land use designation will tend to consist of townhomes, duplexes, and
high-density apartments. This land use designation also allows for a transition from the more
intense General Commercial land uses located along Texas Avenue and the single-family
development located to the west of the subject property.
3. Impact on environmentally sensitive and natural areas: The subject property (highlighted in yellow
in the image below) is bounded by the Wolf Pen Creek Tributary C to the east, Milliff Road to the
south, Rosemary Lane to the west and George Bush Drive to the north. Wolf Pen Creek is a
significant natural feature running through northern College Station. With the subject property
currently developed with multi-family housing and a portion of the tributary located between the
subject property and the Redmond Terrace Shopping Center within a manmade channel, no
additional impacts on environmentally sensitive and natural areas are anticipated. A portion of the
subject property lies within the FEMA-regulated floodplain and floodway, and this area will remain
protected as Natural Areas-Reserved.
4. Impacts on infrastructure including water, wastewater, drainage, and the transportation network:
Current water and sanitary sewer service are being provided to the development by College Station
Utilities. Based on anticipated utility demands provided by the applicant, the current water system
is adequate to serve the proposed uses. With future redevelopment of the site, sanitary sewer
mains adjacent and immediately downstream of the property may need to be replaced in order to
accommodate a more dense development.
A portion of the subject property lies within the FEMA-regulated floodplain and floodway. Any
future development will be required to comply with the City’s drainage ordinances and the B/CS
Unified Stormwater Design Guidelines.
The subject property currently takes access through existing driveways to George Bush Drive and
Milliff Road, and has frontage to Rosemary Lane. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was not required for
review as part of the amendment to the Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use and Character
Map. While a traffic impact analysis is not required for comprehensive plan amendment
application, a traffic impact analysis may be performed at the time of a future rezoning request
and/or site development depending on the scale and uses that are proposed.
5. Consistency with the goals and strategies set forth in the Comprehensive Plan: The proposal is
consistent with the goals and strategies of the Comprehensive Plan. The goal for College Station’s
Future Land Use and Character is to create a community with strong, unique neighborhoods,
protected rural areas, special districts, distinct corridors, and a protected and enhanced natural
environment. The proposed Urban future land use encourages compatible growth by reflecting the
existing development of the property and providing a transition between land uses of the
surrounding area. The Urban future land use also provides for more diverse land use options on a
developed property situated along the periphery of a commercial corridor.

What element of the Comprehensive Plan and at what location is requested to be amended?
Land Use and Character Designation at the south east corner of the intersection of George Bush and Texas
Ave.
What is the amendment requested?
NAR to Urban and NAR
How will this change be compatible with the existing uses, development patterns, and character of the
immediate area concerned, the general area, and the city as a whole?
The subject area is existing multi-family housing that is currently designated as Natural Areas-Reserved on the
land use plan. This revision to Urban would be consistent with adjacent uses and the proximity to Texas A&M.

SUPPORTING INFORMATION
What is the reason for the amendment?
N/A
Page 1 of 2
Explain the impact on environmentally sensitive and natural areas and infrastructure, including water,
wastewater, drainage and transportation network.
Because this area is already developed with multi family housing, the land use designation of NAR is not an
accurate depiction of what is currently in place. The site is already developed and will not have an impact on
environmentally sensitive areas in the future. The adjacent tributary to Wolf Pen Creek is located entirely on the
neighboring property and would not be impacted by this change. There will be no impact on infrastructure,
water, wastewater, drainage, or transportation.
Explain how this change will be consistant with the goals and strategies set forth in the Comprehensive
Plan.
Because this area is already developed with multi family housing, the land use designation of NAR is not an
