Phillips Parkway and Brewster Drive from R Rural to GS General Suburban. The tract was originally zoned A-O Agricultural-Open upon annexation to the City in 1995. Also, this zoning request is in effort to DDN213932!Njovuft!Qbhf!6! provide additional single-family housing supply to this area of the city.

The extension of Brewster Drive as a proposed 2- Etonbury Avenue as a 2-lane Minor Collector is along the western edge. There are two residential streets stubbed to the tract, Tradewind Drive and Bramber Drive, that will be extended with platting.

Brandi Tedrick, Planning and Development, stated that the applicant has proposed a PDD Planned Development District for approximately 0.6 acres generally located at the corner of Southland Street commercial center onto this property and develop a drive-thru restaurant with buffering to the adjacent single-family neighborhood. She explained that the Comprehensive Plan proposes a commercial development connecting to the existing Southwest Crossing commercial center with a proposed drive-thru restaurant.

This rezoning request proposes a Concept Plan for Tract 6 in accordance with the existing PDD district zoning. No other changes are proposed to the PDD. Mr. Dimeolo explained that the applicant is proposing an updated concept plan for tract 6, totaling approximately 13 acres, fronting on Midtown Drive and the State Highway 6 Frontage Road.

The building and surrounding parking area occupy approximately DDN213932!Njovuft!Qbhf!8! two acres out of the total 13 acres.

Public Hearing, presentation, discussion, and possible action regarding Ordinance No. 2021-4308 amending Appendix A, "Unified Development Ordinance," Article 8, "Subdivision Design and Improvements," Section 8.8 "Requirements for Park Land Dedication," of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas in its entirety, including amending the official Park Zones Map. Michael Ostrowski, Planning and Development Director stated that for parkland dedication purposes, developers are required to dedicate either land and/or fee in lieu of land for new residential development (both single-family and multi-family). The intent is that this dedication or fee will offset the demand that the new residents will place of the parks system. In addition to land, developers are also required to either construct or provide a fee for the improvements of the parks facilities. These funds are not to be used for maintenance or current parks facilities, but rather new or improved parks facilities. The land and improvements required for each development are to be located within the same park zone where the development is taking place. Through a couple of City Council work sessions, the City Council has directed staff to make several changes to the parkland dedication requirements within the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). The proposed changes are broken down into three categories (1) zones, (2) fees, and (3) credits. The Parks and Recreation Board met on October 12, 2021 and recommended approval of the item as presented. The Planning and Zoning Commission met on October 21, 2021 and recommended approval of the item as presented. Staff recommends approval. At approximately 9:27p.m., Mayor Mooney opened the Public Hearing. There being no comments, the Public Hearing was closed at 9:27 p.m. A consensus of Council directed staff to return with options to add an appeals process, fee changes, an affordability policy, and contact with development community for further recommendations. DDN213932!Njovuft!Qbhf!9! Items 9.5 and 9.6 presented has one item with separate motions. 9.5. Presentation, discussion, and possible action regarding Ordinance No. 2021-4309 amending the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map from Suburban Commercial to Urban for approximately 10 acres, generally located at 1660 Graham Road. Michael Ostrowski, Planning and Development Director, stated that the applicant is requesting an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map from Suburban Commercial to Urban on approximately 10 acres located at Longmire and Graham Rd. The subject property and properties to the north and east are primarily designated as Suburban Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use and Character Map, while the properties to the west and south are General Suburban. In February 2021, City Council denied a Comprehensive Plan Amendment request for Urban on the same parcel, as the former developer at the time intended to develop a multi-family product. Mr. Ostrowski explained that this request for the Urban land use designation is accompanied by a rezoning request for a PDD Planned Development District with a T Townhouse base to allow for a transitional single-family residential use between the Dove Crossing Subdivision and the ILT charter school campus. The City Council heard this item at their September 9, 2021, meeting, held the public hearing, and postponed action on the item this day, October 28, 2021. This application coincides with the 10-year Comprehensive Plan update, which will eliminate the Urban land use designation and reclassify all properties that were previously designated as Urban. The new Mixed Residential land use is the most appropriate for the townhouse uses proposed with this development. If approved by City Council, the Urban land use for this property will take effect immediately and then be reclassified to Mixed Residential when the 10-year Comprehensive Plan Update goes into effect on November 8, 2021. The Planning and Zoning Commission heard this item at their August 19, 2021, meeting where they voted unanimously to recommend approval. Staff also recommends approval of the request to Urban with the understanding that if this request is approved by City Council, the 10-year Comprehensive Plan update will necessitate a redesignation to Mixed Residential, which best reflects the proposed townhouse use and inherently limits the scale and density of this development.
