Exhibit A
That Appendix A “Unified Development Ordinance,” Article 4 “Zoning Districts,” Section 4.2,
“Official Zoning Map” of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas, is hereby
amended as follows:
Lots 1 and 2 of College Station Medical + Senior Living is rezoned from PDD Planned
Development District to PDD Planned Development District:
ORDINANCE NO. 2022-4355 Page 4 of 7
Exhibit B
Purpose & Intent The purpose of the PDD zoning district is to provide senior-targeted
residential facilities and continuum of care that are located within walking distance to existing,
premier medical service providers and major retailers.
Permitted Uses The following uses will be permitted:
•Senior-Targeted Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Active-Adult communities;
•Senior-Targeted Mixed-Income Multifamily Developments;
•Nursing Homes;
•Convalescent Homes;
•Extended Care Facilities;
•Skilled Nursing Facilities; and
•Memory Care Facilities.
Definitions
•Senior: Adults 55 years of age or older.
•Senior-Targeted Community: A community that provides features, amenities, operational
standards, services and use restrictions that adults 55 years of age or older find desirable. By
choosing to provide senior-targeted amenities, and consciously not provide amenities desired by
the general public of ages less than 55, seniors often self-select into these communities. Many
senior-targeted communities are often age-restricted as well, to reinforce and bolster the sense of
safety and community desired by senior residents.
Senior-targeted communities feature amenities consciously planned into the development;
among these particular amenities, open space within half a block and recreational facilities are
the most common. These recreational facilities include walking trails and park spaces, along with
a lifestyle center/clubhouse that emphasize clubs and activities and feature resort-style amenities.
Amenities often include an indoor and/or outdoor heated swimming pool, whirlpool tub, steam
and/or sauna rooms, separate facilities for aerobics and weight training, rooms for cards, games
and billiards, and often feature a great room with a commercial kitchen as well as facilities for
tennis, golf, shuffleboard, bocce, and more. Clubs and activities focus on scrapbooking and other
crafts
•Active-Adult Communities: Active adult housing refers to communities either age-targeted or
age-restricted to people ages 55 or older. Active adult housing is often designed for complete
single-floor living, with features like laundry facilities and the master bedroom and bathroom on
the first floor. The properties have few, if any steps to get into the home, and often boast details
like toggle/rocker light switches, lever handles, shower stalls with seats, wide doorways, and
other features that make life easier for people who are experiencing the pains associated with
aging (like arthritis).
Active adult communities feature amenities consciously planned into the development; among
these particular amenities, open space within half a block and recreational facilities are the most
common. These recreational facilities include walking trails and park spaces, along with a

Building Height The residential portion of the site (see Concept Plan – Exhibit “C”) will consist
of residential uses with a maximum height 40 feet and will not meet the requirements as set forth
in Section 7.2.H "Low Density Residential Height Protection" to the adjacent park property.
Base Zoning and Meritorious Modifications In accordance with the above Purpose & Intent
statement, the Concept Plan (Exhibit “C”) proposes a residential area. The residential use area
will adhere to the dimensional standards and requirements of the MF Multi-Family district. At
the time of plat and site plan, the project will need to meet all applicable site development
standards and platting requirements of the UDO for the MF Multi-Family zoning classification,
except for the parking reduction and block length/block perimeter/access way meritorious
modifications that are described in Concept Plan Note 5 as provided in Exhibit “C”.
Parkland Dedication Credit for Construction of Multi-Use Path
Construction of a portion of the multi-use path identified on the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and
Greenways Master Plan that connects Arnold Road to Rio Grande Boulevard through Southwood
Community Park. Specifically, construct the portion of the multi-use path shown on the Concept
Plan adjacent to the development on the City’s park property from Arnold Road to Brian
Bachmann Park Drive. Construction of the multi-use path can be counted as credit toward the
Community Park Development fee-in-lieu funds that is required for the residential units
constructed with this development.
