Area Description-approximately 233 acres generally bordered by Royder Road,FM 2154 (AKA Wellborn Road),and Greens Prairie Trail. II. INTRODUCTION This service plan has been prepared in accordance with the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE, Sections 43.021, 43.065, and 43.056(b)-(o) (Vernon 2008,AND VERNON SUPP. 2009, as amended from time to time).Municipal facilities and services to the annexed area described above and illustrated in Figure 1 will be provided or made available on behalf of the City in accordance with the following plan. This plan provides a program under which the City of College Station will provide full municipal services to the annexed areas.All services will be provided within the time provided in the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE, Section 43.056(B). This Service Plan does not: • require the creation of another political subdivision; • require a landowner in the area to fund the capital improvements necessary to provide municipal services in a manner inconsistent with Chapter 395,TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE; or • provide services in the area in a manner that would have the effect of reducing, by more than a negligible amount, the level of fire and police protection and emergency medical services provided within the corporate boundaries of the municipality before annexation. The level of services, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance provided to the annexed area is comparable to the level of services, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance available in other parts of the City with topography,land use,and population density similar to those reasonably contemplated or projected in the annexed area.

WATER AND WASTEWATER SERVICE PROVISION This Water and Wastewater Service Plan("Plan")provides a program under which the City of College Station will provide full municipal services to the annexed area. For the purpose of this plan, "full municipal services" includes water and sewer services provided by the City within its full-purpose boundaries. The level of water and sewer service, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance provided in the annexed area will be comparable to the level of services, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance available in other parts of the City before annexation with topography, land use, and population density similar to those reasonably contemplated or projected in the area. The City will not provide water or wastewater service in areas where another entity holds the CCN unless or until the City of College Station acquires the CCN.Municipal services may be provided by any of the methods by which the City provides services to other comparable areas within the City.All services will be provided within the time provided in the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE SEC. 43.056(B).The City may extend facilities under this plan or otherwise serve these areas through the use of Impact Fees as permitted under CHAPTER 395 OF THE TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE. Wastewater facilities for future development that increases densities beyond the capital improvements specified in this plan will be extended in accordance with the City's Water and Wastewater policy in existence at the time of development. The water and wastewater extension policy is discussed in Section V, Water and Wastewater Capital Improvements. In general,the policy for extension of utility service is development driven, meaning that utility line extensions are typically installed by developers,in conjunction with development projects. The City may accept ownership and maintenance of major facilities, such as gravity sewer lines, manholes, lift stations and/or wastewater package plants, as required by the particular development. The City may elect to pay for upgrades or oversize of infrastructure projects being installed by developers. As an area develops, developers or homeowners extend water distribution and wastewater collection lines to individual lots. Generally,until an area becomes densely populated,the cost of utility extension is not feasible to be borne by a few lot owners. Also,in the case of wastewater treatment,developments with large lots will normally be constructed with on-site sewage treatment facilities that are privately owned and operated. Water The annexation area is in the water CCN service territory of Wellborn Special Utility District. The City of College Station does not have the right to provide water service in the annexation area,therefore,no water infrastructure will be provided by the City after annexation. Wastewater Wastewater service in the annexation area is currently provided by private on-site sewer facilities. The City recently installed a 12-inch gravity sewer main along the west side of Royder Road. Future development within the annexation area may access this sewer main through a combination of gravity lines and/or force mains. As in other areas of College Station with similar topography, land use,and population density, the area currently served by private sewer treatment systems will remain on private systems ORDINANCE NO. 2015-3653 Page 14 until such time as significant development occurs to warrant the extension of an organized sanitary sewer collection system. V. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS Should the City make capital improvements to serve the annexed areas, the City reserves the right to levy an impact fee to the properties annexed according to Chapter 395 of the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE and the City's Code of Ordinances. The City may, from time to time, include construction of new, expanded or replacement facilities in its Capital Improvements Program (CIP). Facilities to be included in the CIP shall be determined on a City-wide basis. Priorities shall be established by the CIP plans of the City,projected growth trends,and the City Council through its development plans and policies. A. Police Protection(including animal control) No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide Police Services to the proposed annexation area. Police protection will be provided to the annexed areas through existing City facilities at a level of service comparable to the level of service in other parts of the City before annexation with topography, land use, and population density similar to those reasonable contemplated or projected in the area. B. Fire Protection(including EMS) No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide Fire Protection to the proposed annexation area.Fire protection will be provided to the annexed areas through existing City facilities and mutual aid agreements at a level of service comparable to the level of service in other parts of the City before annexation with topography, land use and population density similar to those reasonable contemplated or projected in the area. C. Solid Waste Collection No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide solid waste collection to the proposed annexation area. Solid waste collection services will be provided to the annexed areas through the City's existing facilities or through franchise agreements with private services at a level of service comparable to the level of service in other parts of the City before annexation with topography, land use and population density similar to those reasonable contemplated or projected in the area. D. Maintenance of Public Roads and Streets No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide right-of-way maintenance. Maintenance will be provided through the existing facilities at a level of service not less than exists in the area immediately preceding annexation. Any future improvement and/or enlargement of roads within existing rights-of-way will be included in future capital improvement programs in compliance with the City's thoroughfare plan and/or as needed to facilitate the maneuvering of emergency and sanitation service vehicles. E. Parks,Playgrounds and Swimming Pools No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide parks and recreation services to the proposed annexation area. Parks and recreation services will be provided ORDINANCE NO. 2015-3653 Page 15 through existing facilities at a level of service not less than exists in the area immediately preceding annexation. Additional park development in the annexed areas will be addressed through the development standards and procedures of the City as residential development occurs. Such park development includes, but is not limited to, dedication of park land and/or money in lieu of land in accordance with the City of College Station Unified Development Ordinance and an existing interlocal agreement with the College Station Independent School District. F. Other Public Buildings and Facilities No capital improvements are necessary at this time to provide other public buildings and facilities to the proposed annexation area. Other public facilities, buildings or services will be provided through the existing facilities at a level of service not less than exists in the area immediately preceding annexation. WATER AND WASTEWATER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS The water and wastewater utility extension policy of the City of College Station is as follows: The cost of off-site extension of water and wastewater facilities to serve a lot,tract,plat, or land development shall be borne by the owner or developer of the lot,tract, plat, or land by direct installation or through the use of Impact Fees. Where such extension is consistent with plans for the development of the City and its utility system the City may, by decision of the City Council, participate in the cost of construction so as to provide for additional capacity for the overall development of an area. The cost of water and wastewater facilities necessary to serve existing lots or new development within a subdivision plat or land development shall be borne by the lot owner or developer of the plat or land by direct installation or through the use of Impact Fees. Standard tap fees or other installation fees in effect on a citywide basis are in addition to impact fees levied. Water No water infrastructure will be provided to this area after annexation. The annexation area is located within the water CCN service territory of Wellborn SUD. Therefore,the properties will continue to be served by Wellborn SUD after annexation. Wastewater Properties within the annexation area are either vacant or served by private on-site sewer treatment systems.Properties currently served by private on-site systems will continue to be served by said systems until such time development and/or redevelopment warrants the extension of an organized sanitary collection system. ORDINANCE NO. 2015-3653 Page 16 VI. LEVEL OF SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED It is the intent of the City of College Station to provide the level of services required by State law. The City Council finds and determines that the services, infrastructure and infrastructure maintenance proposed by this plan are comparable to that provided to other parts of the City with topography, land use, and population density reasonably similar to the annexed area and will not reduce the level of services available to the territory prior to annexation. Nothing in this plan shall require the City to provide a uniform level of full municipal services to each area of the City, including the annexed area, if different characteristics of topography, land use,and population density are considered a sufficient basis for providing different levels of service. VII. TERM This service plan shall be valid for a term of ten(10)years. Renewal of the service plan shall be at the discretion of the City Council. VIII. AMENDMENTS The service plan may be amended if the City Council determines at a public hearing that changed conditions or subsequent occurrences make this service plan unworkable or obsolete. The City Council may amend the service plan to conform to the changed conditions or subsequent occurrences pursuant to the TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE, Section 43.056 (VERNON 2008 and VERNON SUPP.2009).
