7. CONSENT ITEMS
CCM 092525 Minutes Page 2
Presentation, discussion, and possible action on consent items which consist of ministerial, or
"housekeeping" items as allowed by law: A Councilmember may request additional information
at this time. Anv Councilmember may remove an item from the Consent Agenda for a separate
vote.
Item (7.4) was pulled by the Council for clarification.
(7.4) Michael DeHaven, Assistant Finance Director, clarified that depository services encompass more
than just checking accounts, including anti -fraud measures and financial tools. Banks require an
operating balance to earn interest credits and offsetting fees, so monthly fee payments are unnecessary.
Operating accounts maintain about $5 million, with extra funds in money market or interest rate
accounts; some banks have caps on earnings. Banks must collateralize deposits at 105%, using
treasuries and agency bonds held at the Federal Reserve Bank. In case of issues, funds can be retrieved
within days. Splitting deposits across multiple banks does not necessarily reduce risk as all deposits
are fully collateralized. Using one institution simplifies transactions, though investments are managed
separately in local government pools, treasuries, and agency bonds. Investment updates will be
provided at the Budget and Finance Committee meetings and via monthly Council reports.
7.1. Presentation, discussion, and possible action of minutes for:
• September 11, 2025 Council Meeting

outline their objectives for the upcoming year.
Ainsleigh Broadwell, VP of Municipal Affairs, Texas A&M Student Government Association (SGA),
came before council to present the priorities of the SGA and its initiatives. She stated that the current

included as a future agenda item at the Council meeting held on August 14, 2025. Residents of the
Pebble Creek Subdivision have recently expressed concerns regarding the potential future widening
and extension of Pebble Creek Parkway, and its impact on their neighborhood, which generated an
online petition initiated by residents this summer seeks to remove Pebble Creek Parkway from the
CCM 092525 Minutes Page 4
City's Thoroughfare Plan. These issues were reiterated through the public engagement efforts of the
Comprehensive Plan Evaluation & Report conducted this year.
Mr. Schubert provided background information on the role of thoroughfares and other streets in

potential options that could be implemented.

Courtney Cannon, College Station, voiced concerns about road expansion changing the
neighborhood's family -friendly nature and is worried about increased traffic, crime, and risks to
children. She suggests an alternative: expanding Lakeway Drive, which is suited for heavier traffic,
and turning the end of Pebble Creek Parkway into a green space with picnic tables and parking. This
would preserve the community's integrity and safety. Courtney urged the Council to prioritize this
recommendation and thanked them for their consideration.
Commissioner Fred Brown of College Station shared Mayor Ringer's "first rule" advice: prioritize
your constituents first, then the city. If there's a conflict, focus on the constituents. He recalled
opposing the extension of Appomattox to Harvey Road due to public opposition, following the first
rule. Commissioner Brown also mentioned land trades that led to Pebble Creek's development and
advised the Council to prioritize their constituents when making tough decisions.
Tom Jackson, College Station, stated that expanding Pebble Creek Parkway would fragment the
community and lower property values. His research shows that road noise and increased traffic
negatively affect property values and while values are currently rising, this could change with new
developments. Maintaining neighborhood integrity and protecting property values is crucial.
Kerry Roper, College Station, urged the Council to remove the southern extension of Pebble Creek
Parkway from future plans and waive the requirement for the developer to connect it. He suggested
Lakeway Drive as an alternative and proposed reclassifying Pebble Creek Parkway from an arterial to
a neighborhood street (Collector). Mr. Roper also requested Council not to defer the decision, as the
developer seeks approval this fall.
Residents voiced their concerns regarding the potential future widening and extension of Pebble Creek
Parkway and its impact on their neighborhood. They suggested the removal of this extension and
proposed finding a solution that maintains neighborhood integrity. The concerns include traffic
impact, noise, safety, long-term implications, health issues, decreased property values, family impact,
neighborhood integrity, the effects on growth, and diminished quality of life. Speakers were:

Jeannine Smith from College Station addressed the Council regarding safety concerns. The studies she
has seen indicate:
• Neighborhoods without traffic experience increased safety.
• Poor road design constitutes a public health issue.
• Incorrectly placed traffic calming devices are ineffective.
She went on to stated that vehicles frequently exceed speed limits and fail to stop at the intersection
of Royal Adelade and St. Andrews, posing a danger to pedestrians and golfers. Further extensions will
worsen the issues, especially with the 35 MPH speed limit often exceeded.

the condition that Pebble Creek Parkway not extend to the south of the Pebble Creek subdivision
except to allow for emergency vehicles. Council also directed staff to amend the Thoroughfare Plan
to remove existing Pebble Creek Parkway from being a future 4-lane road.
8.4. Presentation, discussion, and possible action on an update on the Economic Development
Master Plan.
Michael Ostrowski, Chief Development Officer, announced that on May 8, 2025, the City Council
approved a contract with TIP Strategies, Inc. to update the City's Economic Development Master Plan.
Mr. Ostrowski introduced Tracye McDaniel, TIP Strategies President.
Tracye McDaniel, TIP Strategies President, presented the project scope, TIP Strategies conducted in
several in -person visits to College Station to:

CCM 092525 Minutes Page 8

from June 25-27, where they held focus groups and individual meetings with local stakeholders. They
also met with the steering committee established by City Council on June 12, 2025. After engaging

focus areas. The cost will not exceed $145,000, with a one-time Service Level Adjustment of $150,000
