Council approves development agreement for family entertainment center and office condominiums; developer says site has 460 parking spaces and peak demand under
Summary
The council approved a development agreement authorizing a family entertainment center (about 70,000 sq ft) and up to 30 office condominiums on roughly 8.978 acres; developer Satya Guru said the plan provides 460 parking spaces with peak use under 300 and will share parking between uses in evenings and weekends; resolution passed 6–1.
Council reviewed Resolution R‑40‑53, a development agreement with Brazos Next LLC and Brazos Grand LLC for roughly 8.978 acres. City staff described the project elements: a family entertainment center of approximately 70,000 square feet (maximum 50 feet tall), up to 30 office condominium units (for professional offices), exterior finish requirements (brick, stucco, stone for 75% of facades) and shared parking arrangements enforced via covenants and use restrictions.
Developer Satya Guru described the entertainment concept—bowling, arcade, laser tag and a rope course—and said the site will provide 460 parking spaces (330 in front, 130 in back). Guru said analysis of comparable sites shows peak parking demand under 300 and that evening/weekend shared parking will meet needs: “We have a total of 460 on the site overall... the peak hours is less than 300.” Council members asked about parking, showers (none), and use restrictions for office condominiums; staff said parking requirements are met and covenants will limit uses in the office condo area. A motion to approve the resolution carried by council vote (6–1).
