Northwest Area
Development Plan
December 12, 2000
Adoption of this plan will expand the Northwest Area
Development Plan (ADP) area to include the area previously
known as the B1untzer ADP area and the northwestern portion of
the PortJAirport/Violet ADP. Adoption of the Plan will supersede
and rescind any prior adopted Area Development Plans for these
areas.
INTRODUCTION
T he Corpus Christi Comprehensive Plan is
mandated by the City Charter. The Charter requires the
City Council to " . . . establish comprehensive planning as
a continuous governmental function to guide, regulate,
and manage future development . . . " and that " . . . all
city improvements, ordinances, and regulations shall be
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. . . ". The
Comprehensive Plan is comprised of various plan
elements such as Policy Statements, Area Development
Plans, Capital Improvement Programs, and Master Utility
Plans. The comprehensive planning process is a means
for citizens and community leaders to guide community
development. The Comprehensive Plan, by definition, is
general, long range, and broad in scope. Its purpose is to
guide the City in policy formulation and in the
implementation of strategies related to population,
housing, environment, land use, transportation, and
public services.
The Northwest Area is located in the extreme
northwestern part of the City. The first Northwest Area

Development Plan (ADP) was adopted on August 16,1988 by the
City Council. The Plan area has been expanded to include the
Bluntzer Area (area west of County Road 73 to the ETJ and
Nueces River) and a portion of the PortJAirport/Violet ADP (area
west of Rand Morgan Road and north of State Highway 44).

The Plan area is bounded by the Nueces River on the north, Rand
Morgan Road on the east, State Highway 44 and the Robstown
city limits on the south and the Corpus Christi Extraterritorial
Jurisdiction (ETJ) to the west. (See Figure 1- Plan Update
Boundary Map.)
The Northwest Area contains approximately 65,809 acres (103 sq.
miles) with 10,900 acres (17 sq. miles) inside city limits and
54,909 acres (86 sq. miles) outside city limits (Figure 2).
Approximately 17% of the Plan Area is currently inside city limits
and 83% is located outside city limits in the City's Extraterritorial
Jurisdiction.

Implementation of the Plan and its policies will provide for the
health, safety and welfare of the Northwest community. The Plan
addresses land use and development issues such as the zoning and
platting of properties, Capital Improvement Programs, and other
specific concerns. In addition, coordination of the Capital
Improvements Program with the Northwest Area Development
Plan, will result in more cost effective development and tax dollar
savmgs.

The 2000 estimated
population of the
Northwest area is
32,000 with
approximately
27,000 residents
inside city limits
and 5,000 residents
outside city limits.
Since 1990 the
population of the area has increased by approximately 30%, or 3%
per year. This is almost triple the growth rate of the City's overall
population during the same period, which makes the Northwest

Increases in land use over the last 10 years are reflected in the
increasing volume of traffic accessing Northwest Boulevard (F.M.
624). From 1995 thru 2000 traffic volume increases per year on
Northwest Boulevard were the highest in the city, averaging 12%
per year over a five-year period. Because of the vast area that is
accessed by Northwest Boulevard ultimate development and
traffic generation is expected to far exceed the existing capacity
(30,000 average daily trips) of the roadway. Addressing this

POLICY STATEMENT A.l
Maintain and/or improve water quality in the
Nueces River upstream from the Calallen Dam to
Lake Corpus Christi to a level consistent with the
Texas Natural Resource Conservation
Commission's standards for contact recreation,
high quality aquatic habitat (See Figure 5 -
Wetlands), and public water supply. Documented
concerns regarding total dissolved solids and
phosphorus loading in this river segment warrants increased
protective measures to assure the viability of the region's
primary drinking water supply. (See Policy Statement E,6)
POLICY STATEMENT A.2
Encourage preservation of the expansive open space within
the Nueces River Floodplain. The City should take a leading
role to encourage preservation of the floodplain by land
donation, land dedication, purchase, acquisition of
conservation easements, annexation and zoning the land to
"FR" Farm Rural. (Also see Policy Statements E.2 and E.3)

B. LAND USE
POLICY STATEMENT B.1
The City Council, hereby, adopts the Northwest
Future Land Use Plan (Figure 6) and the
accompanying text as a guide for future land
use decisions. The Plan provides guidance for
future land use decisions including rezoning,
platting, fiscal management, and capital
improvement planning. The Plan supports
environmentally sound development and the
efficient provision of public services and facilities.
Table 3 contains the total acreage of future land
uses and potential population of an ultimately
developed Northwest area.
a) Areas designated Conservation/Preservation are to be
conserved and protected from urban development. This
designation applies only to existing floodways along the
Nueces River. This land use designation includes existing
agricultural uses, natural preserves, and the several large
sand and gravel excavation operations within the Nueces
River floodplain. On-site wastewater disposal systems are
not allowed in these areas or within 75' of these areas
under State and County restrictions. With regard to the
sand and gravel excavation operations the operators should
be encouraged/required to provide environmentally
sensitive reclamation of the land when the operations
cease. The overburden and the barrow pits produced by
these operations may be reclaimed as wetlands and
possibly provide stormwater detention facilities to prevent
downstream flooding.
b) Areas designated for Agricultural and Rural uses are
intended to encourage continuation of farming,
Draft Northwest ADP Update
December 12, 2000
Page 10
epartment 0 Planning
ranching, and large lot residential activities in a rural
setting within the lOO-year flood plain (including a
portion of the Drinking Water Watershed). New
development within the Agricultural and Rural land use
category is recommended for up to one residential unit per
five acres. One unit per five acres may be achieved on a
lot by lot basis (each lot 5 acres) or on smaller lots if a
portion of the development is not developed and
permanently kept in a natural state. Where smaller lots are
provided in combination with an undeveloped area the
overall density of the development shall not exceed 1 unit
per five acres. These low-density residential uses will be
consistent with the City's desire to protect drinking water
quality in the region's drinking water supply watershed
(upstream of the diversion dam on the Nueces River) and
to minimize repetitive losses due to flood damage.

c) Areas designated for Estate Residential uses, with a
maximum of one residential unit per acre, will
encourage large lot subdivisions consistent with
available infrastructure and will protect the Drinking
Water Watershed. Until wastewater services become
available, these areas should continue to be designated for
large lots. Several plan areas are designated for Estate
Residential uses including: the area located between
Industrial District #2 and Robstown; the area west of
County Road 73; and the area north of 1-37 and west of the
Koch Refinery West Plant.
d) Commercial development of a small scale for
convenience shopping needs is necessary and desirable
to serve the outlying portions of the Plan area. The
most appropriate locations for these types of uses are at
arterial/arterial intersections. Strip commercial
development is discouraged from occurring along arterial
roadways. Nodal commercial development is encouraged
whereby commercial uses are concentrated at the major
intersections of arterials as indicated on the Future Land
Use Plan. As more public services become available
(water and wastewater, etc.) and as the area develops,
larger scale commercial uses may be necessary.
e) The expansion of business1 uses along Northwest
Boulevard (F .M. 624) or any other arterial street
should be planned and zoned so that the traffic
carrying capacity of the street is protected. The plan
recognizes the many existing commercial uses located
along Northwest Boulevard, Leopard Street, and other
1 Professional Office/Light Commercial Uses and General
Commercial Land Use Categories - Professional Office
and Limited Commercial Uses are equivalent to the "AB"
Professional Office and the "B-IA" Neighborhood
Commercial Districts in the Zoning Ordinance. The
General Commercial land use category may include uses
found in the Neighborhood Commercial ("B-1") or the
General Commercial ("B-4") zoning districts.

arterial streets and calls for their continuance. However,
every available means should be used to manage traffic
flow/access (e,g. access management devices, marginal
access controls, driveway use restrictions, etc.) from
adjacent new uses and protect the City's investment in an
efficient transportation system,
~Cityot
....~III Corpus
=- = ChrISti
--
West of County Road 75, commercial uses on Northwest
Boulevard should only be allowed at arterial intersections.
Surrounding low-density residential activities should be
buffered from higher density commercial uses at the
intersections with medium density residential, office or
light commercial uses. This nodal approach to high-
density development will help to preserve traffic flow on
Northwest Boulevard and other arterial streets and
concentrate traffic generation at signalized intersections
where it can be efficiently managed. The depth of such
commercial developments should not exceed a depth of
300 to 500 feet.
I) Large-scale commercial uses are encouraged on both
sides of US 77 (IH-69) north of Robstown. South of
County Road 50 extended and on the east side of US 77,
light industrial uses are encouraged due to the availability
of rail line access. In addition, for the foreseeable future,
US 77 will be the area's 1-69 North American Free Trade
(NAFTA) Route, therefore large scale commercial and
industrial uses are warranted along this strategic
transportation corridor.
g) Industrial District #2 (located between Violet Road,
Rand Morgan Road, Connty Road 48 extended and
State Highway 44) provides an important economic
benefit to the area and the region and should be
continued with the following guidelines.
.!J Due to the prevailing southeast winds and
concerns of the Northwest Community, limit
expansion of new heavy industry in the district
to the footprint indicated on the future land use
plan.

n Create a minimum 1,000' light industrial land
use buffer on the south, west, and east'sides of
Industrial District #2.
,n The Estate Residential land use category will be
used as a land use buffer between areas of
industry aud higher density residential
development.
Industrial district agreements provide for a payment to the
City, in lieu of taxes, with a guarantee the City will not
annex the area for a set time period. Industrial District #2
is partially developed with several large heavy industrial
uses. Industrial District #2 provides a significant benefit
over Industrial District #1 (the Port/ship channel area) as
District #2 contains large spacious sites that are not
available in District #1. On the north side of Industrial
District #2, industry has purchased land to create a
"downwind" buffer area between the industry and existing
residential areas to the north.
h) Protect the Corpus Christi International Airport by
discouraging heavy industrial uses from locating under
flight approach zones. The primary airport approach
flight path is located over the Annaville/Calallan areas in a
southeast-northwest direction. The plan recommends
residential and light industrial uses in these underlying
areas. Note: This residential area is approximately 2 miles
from the end of the airport's existing and proposed
runways and meets the City's standard for keeping
residential uses at least 1 Yz miles from the ends of the
runways.
POLICY STATEMENT 8.2
The City, County, and utility districts/companies will work
together to prevent development of "colonias". For
purposes of this plan, Colonias are defined as developments
that do not meet minimum development standards for water,
wastewater, stormwater, access, and other requirements
normally associated with the development and platting of
subdivisions. Colonias are also referred to as illegal or
Draft Northwest ADP Update
December 12,2000
Page 16
unplatted subdivisions. In order to prevent such development
the City, County and utility districts will continue to closely
monitor development activity and coordinate requests for
water, wastewater, and electrical service to assure all public
health and safety requirements are met. A key to prevention
of new colonias is to tie approval of water and electrical
service connections with a guarantee that wastewater service
is available and meets all health requirements and that all
platting requirements of the City have been met.
For existing colonias, illegal subdivisions, and/or unplatted
subdivisions, the City and County will work with property
owners to provide for minimum health and safety standards.
Enforcement actions taken by the City will include actions
based on complaints and on a proactive basis,
POLICY STATEMENT B.3
Encourage development of recreational vehicle parks in
the northwest area to capture "Winter Texans" traveling
U.S. 77 (IH-69). Evaluation of proposals for specific RV sites
will be based on location, compatibility of surrounding land
uses, access to arterials and expressways, and other
appropriate factors,
POLICY STATEMENT B.4
The City designates Interstate 37, State Highway 44 and
the proposed South Loop as scenic corridors. Scenic
corridors are streets and highways the City wishes to visually
enhance due to their utility as highly travel corridors or as
entrances to the city. Design objectives for these areas are:
1. IH-37: The areas along IH-37 between the Nueces
River and Carbon Plant Road on the north and Rand
Morgan Road on the south should be limited to
residential and commercial uses. No industrial uses of
any kind including outdoor storage and construction
yards and no off-premise signage (billboards) should
be allowed within this designated scenic corridor. In
addition, the area north of IH-37 and east of Carbon
Plant Road to the westemmost edge of the existing
Koch refinery should be limited to agriculturaVrural

and public/semi-public uses and not permit off-premise
slgnage.
2. S.H. 44: The areas on both sides of the roadway
between the Robstown city limits and Oso Creek
should be limited to agriculturaVrural and residential
uses. No industrial uses of any kind including outdoor
storage and construction yards and no off-premise
signage should be allowed within this designated
scenic corridor. In addition, the area on both sides of
S,H, 44 between Oso Creek and the South Loop are
designated to be light industrial and commercial uses,
however, off-premise signage should not be permitted.
3. Additional Beautification Efforts: Development adjacent to
these scenic corridors will be required to provide a higher
standard of landscaping than for non-scenic corridor streets.
The City's Landscaping requirements in the Zoning
Ordinance should be changed to require all street yards for
multi-family, public-semi public, business and industrial uses
to provide a minimum of 0.04 points of landscaping per
square foot where property is developed adjacent to a
designated scenic corridor. Note: street yards are areas
between structures and the street right-of-way.
4. Strict enforcement of the City's Highway Beautification
Ordinance.
POLICY STATEMENT B.5
Development along all arterial and expressways will be
required to plant street trees on fifty-foot centers in a tree
planting zone located within 10 feet of any property line
abutting the street rights-of-way. The City's landscape
requirements in the Zoning Ordinance will be changed to
require street tree plantings from any species listed in the
Preferred Trees and Palms section of the City's Landscape
Ordinance. The Landscaping Requirements should allow, on
a 1 to 1 basis, an exception to new tree planting when an
existing tree of a minimum 6" caliper is located within 20 feet
of the right-of-way.

c. ANNEXATION
POLICY STATEMENT C.l
Pursue annexation of property in advance of
development, particularly, along major roadways
for the purpose of creating compatible land use
and development patterns. A significant amount
of development has occurred between 1990 and
2000 in the Northwest ETJ areas. Monitor increases
in development by creating a database for properties
in the ETJ. New development will be "tracked" by
creating a database of approved Health Department
permits for new septic systems in the extraterritorial
jurisdiction,
PLAN STATEMENT C.2
Prior to annexation, develop detailed assessments
of infrastructure and action plans for improving
and or replacing inadequate infrastructure in
outlying substandard developments. Pursue
federal and state grants for purposes of bringing
substandard infrastructure into conformance with
City standards. Detailed assessments of
infrastructure and action plans for the Suburban Acres and the
River Acres areas are a high priority.
PLAN STATEMENT C.3
The City should aggressively pursue annexation of the
developing areas within the Nueces River watershed within
Nueces County. The City's primary water intake from its
reservoir system is located in the Calallen area. Water quality
from this point and upstream is extremely important to all that
are served by this regional water resource.
Storm runoff from upland uses can dramatically impact the
quality of water in the Nueces River. Cleaner water in the

Nueces River has a direct impact on the City's water treatment
program at the 0, N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant.
Annexation will allow the City to insure that inappropriate
land uses and development are prohibited and building
standards imposed in this critical drinking water watershed.

The City Council adopts the Transportation Plan
(see Figure 7) as the
guide for future
transportation
decisions. Plan
recommendations
are based on the
"ultimate" street
network necessary to
serve a fully
developed plan area.
Unless otherwise
specified all streets are recommended to contain
curb, gutter and underground drainage. Wherever
this transportation plan calls for the ac uisition of
more right-of-way
than currently exists,
the future right-of-
way line shall be
used to determine
building setbacks.
Use of the future
right-of-way line to
measure setbacks
will prevent
construction of
buildings, signs or
any other permanent structures that would encroach
into the future right-of-way and setbacks. The
transportation network of this Plan constitutes an amendment
to the City's Transportation Plan.

Plan changes, which are subject to Texas Department of
Transportation funding, will be submitted for inclusion in
the Metropolitan Planning Organization's Urban
Transportation Plan. Changes to the City's
Transportation Plan include:
a) Relief of traffic congestion along Northwest Boulevard
(F.M. 624) and at the Five Points Intersection is a
major focus of the plan recommendations. Northwest
Boulevard has experienced the fastest growing traffic
volumes of any street segment in the City over the last five
years (1995-2000), This trend is expected to continue due
to healthy growth in the Northwest area and the unusual
traffic pattern caused by the geography of the
NorthwestIBluntzer Area. Most arterial streets can obtain
relief from increasing traffic on adjacent parallel arterials.
However, Northwest Boulevard does not benefit from any
paralleling arterials to the north because of the close
proximity of the Nueces River to the north. In addition,
Northwest Boulevard extends as a long straight arterial
street for many miles drawing traffic from growth
occurring in the City's Extraterritorial Jurisdiction and
beyond to Orange Grove and development on the west side
of Lake Corpus Christi.
Note: Projected traffic levels on Northwest Boulevard can
be expected to ultimately exceed existing and planned
capacities by a wide margin if relief routes to the south are
not made available, if land uses are not carefully
controlled and if good access management practices are
not followed. Projections of traffic indicate that without
relief routes to aid Northwest Boulevard traffic generation
from ultimate development would approach or even
exceed 50,000 average daily trips. This would far exceed
the existing capacity of the street, which is approximately
30,000 average daily trips and the planned capacity of
street.

The following recommendations will help to provide
relief to this growing traffic congestion problem:
1. Northwest Boulevard is recommended as an arterial
street with an ultimate 120' minimum right-of-way, six
traffic lanes, and a median. Median cuts should
maintain a spacing of not less than 600' or the Texas
Department of Transportation's standard, whichever is
greater. This type of roadway will increase the carrying
capacity of Northwest Boulevard (F.M, 624) at its
approach to 5 Points by 35 percent. The City will
encourage TxDot and the Metropolitan Planning
Organization (MPO) to make these improvements
one of their highest transportation improvement
priorities.
2. A two-lane 6O-foot right-of-way loop collector street
(south of Wal-Mart) is proposed between U.S. 77
and the extension of River East Drive. This loop
collector is proposed to relieve traffic congestion at
Five Points Intersection by providing a new route for
traffic destined west and away from the Five Points
area,
3. County Road 52 is recommended as an arterial
street with an ultimate 100' minimum right-of-way,
four travel lanes and a landscaped median. This
cross section is recommended between County Road
75 and the proposed South Loop Expressway, Portions
of County Road 52 east of the South Loop Expressway
and west of County Road 75 are recommended as a
collector with an ultimate 70' minimum right-of-way
with four travel lanes. County Road 52 will serve as:
· A relief route for through traffic to avoid
Northwest Boulevard congestion west of 5-
Points. County Road 75 extended will serve as
the connection between Northwest Boulevard
(F.M, 624) and County Road 52 and provide
east bound traffic an easy connection to County
Road 52 and U.S, 77;
Draft Northwest ADP Update
December 12, 2000

· An alternative route to the use of the IH-37/
U.S, 77 Interchange in times of congestion after
County Road 52 is extended to Callicoate
Road; and
~CitYOl

· An attractive parkway drive that will connect
both the CalaHan and Annaville areas.
a) South Loop Expressway (See Figure 8): The Proposed
South Loop Expressway is based on the Metropolitan
Planning Organization's (MPO) South Loop
Transportation Study.
The Study was undertaken in cooperation with Nueces
County, TxDot, and the City of Corpus Christi. The South
Loop Transportation Study was accepted by City Council
and adopted by the MPO's Policy Committee in 1999.
The purpose of the South Loop Expressway is to:
1. Provide a relief route to South and North Padre Island
Drives and IH-37 which are experiencing increasing
traffic congestion;
2, Enhance interconnecl1vlty between the City's
Southside, Westside, Northside and the Northwest
areas;
3. Create a second major crossing of the Nueces River
and to northbound highways for emergency evacuation
from the City; and
4. Provide the primary connection to the Joe Fulton
International Trade Corridor on the north side of the
Ship Channel from U.S. 77, 1-37 and State Highway
44.
b) County Roads 48 aud 44 are to serve as major arterial
roadways connecting the suburban and rural areas to the

west of U.S. 77 to the Industrial Districts and to the
International Airport to the east.
c) Create a four lane, 70-foot right-of-way collector street
paralleling and west of U.S. 77 between the proposed
collector street south of Wal-Mart and County Road 44.
The purpose of this collector street is to provide for
circulation adjacent to a high-density commercial corridor
similar to McArdle StreetlSPID combination on the
Southside.
d) Up River Road is desiguated a 4-1ane, 70-foot right-of-
way collector street between Rand Morgan Road and
McKenzie Roads, Improvement of this road will be
considered a high priority for the City's Capital
Improvement Program. This section of Up River Road
serves an expanding residential neighborhood, a new
elementary school, and a major park (West Guth Park) for
the Northwest Area. In addition, this portion of Up River
Road also serves as the frontage road for IH-37,

POLICY STATEMENT E.l
A high citywide priority shall be given to expanding
the Northwest Branch Library. The current facility,
located on McKenzie Road, of approximately 7,000-sq.
ft. is substantially smaller than the other three branches,
which are approximately 13,OOO-sq. ft. in size. In
expanding and developing a larger branch library the

The City will
pursue acqui-
sition of
strategic flood

adjacent to the
Nueces River.
(See Policy
Statement A.2)
The purpose of
these acquisitions will be to create a continuous public
open space/trail system and parks at appropriate locations
along the Nueces River. These acquisitions will also
protect water quality along the Nueces River upstream
from the City's water intake at O. N. Stevens Water Treatment
Plant.

POLICY STATEMENT E.3
Create a Nueces River Hike and Bike Trail system with
connections to the Oso Parkway system, and schools, parks
and other public facilities in the Northwest Area. (See
Figure 5, Future Land Use Plan) The trail system should be
fully integrated with the City's drainage right-of-way and
collector street system. Hike and bike trail surfaces will range
from improved concrete or asphalt surfaces to unimproved dirt
trails. The Bikeway System is envisioned as one using
primitive trails with minimal maintenance on drainageways in
combination with existing streets, Capital improvements for
the system shall consist mainly of bikeway and bike path
stgnage,
WATER AND WASTEWATER
POLICY STATEMENT E.4
The City will work with the Nueces County Water Control
and Improvement District #3 (Robstown area), River
Acres Water Supply Corporation, and South Texas Water
Authority to develop written agreements or modification
of existing water contracts to clearly indicate areas of
Draft Northwest ADP Update

responsibility for provIsIon of water utilities. Once
agreements have been reached the City will pursue
modification of its State of Texas Certificate of Conveyance
and Necessity to match with agreed upon areas for providing
service.
POLICY STATEMENT E.5
Connections to the City's Transmission Main System may
only be made if the connection:
a) Will not impair the City's ability to provide sufficient
water pressure taking into account the ultimate
development of the area;
b) Are consistent with the City's Water Master Plan; and
c) Meet platting ordinance requirements.
POLICY STATEMENT E.6
Initiate a watershed management program and emergency
response plan for the Nueces River Watershed in
cooperation with the City of Corpus Christi and Nueces
River Authority. Hundreds of petroleum product pipelines
cross the Nueces River and its tributaries that if ruptured could
place the region's primary water supply at risk. For example,
in March 2000, the City of Dallas lost, for an indefinite period
of time, one third of its water supply when 500,000 gallons of
fuel additive, MTBE, spilled from a ruptured pipeline into
East Caddo Creek. East Caddo Creek drains into Lake
Tawakoni, which provides a third of the City of Dallas's water
supply. By way of comparison the Nueces River transports
two-thirds of the City of Corpus Christi's and the region's
water supply. In light of the Dallas loss of water supply, it is
clear that protection and precautionary plans should be
considered for the City's water supply.

POLICY STATEMENT E.7
A high priority for the Northwest Area is for the City to
update its Stormwater Master Plan of the area. As part of
this update the City should review the drainage system in the
Northwest to determine if the unique topography and
hydrology in the area warrants additional drainage capacity
improvements and/or higher stormwater design standards.
2 Note: this plan is not intended to address the location of future
stormwater drainage facilities as the City is in the process of creating a
Master Stormwater Master Plan.
