located at the southwest corner of Harvey Mitchell Parkway South and Holleman Drive South.
The motion carried unanimously.
2. Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding a request to delay annexation of
approximately 46 acres generally located northwest of the intersection of W.D. Fitch
Parkway and Tonkaway Lake Road.
Lance Simms, Director of Planning and Development, reported that in October 2007, the owner
of the subject property entered into a non-annexation development agreement with the City of
College Station. The property owner has also entered into a saltwater disposal lease and the
Owner's lessee has started construction on a truck unloading facility, both on the subject property.
Staff believes the construction violates the terms of the non-annexation development agreement
and, therefore, constitutes a petition for voluntary annexation. The attorney for the owner has
requested that the City delay annexation until the termination date of the non-annexation
development agreement(October 2017).
Staff recommends not moving forward with annexation of the subject property at this time. In
order to provide maximum flexibility regarding annexation of the property, staff also recommends
not approving a specific annexation date.
MOTION: Upon a motion by Councilmember Schultz and a second by Councilmember Aldrich,
the City Council voted five (5) for and none (0) opposed,to delay annexation of approximately 46
acres generally located northwest of the intersection of W.D. Fitch Parkway and Tonkaway Lake
Road, with no specific annexation date. The motion to amend carried unanimously.
3. Adjournment.
MOTION: There being no further business, Mayor Pro Tern Mooney adjourned the Regular
Meeting of the City Council at 7:50 p.m. on Thursday, November 13, 2014.
