RE: Consider approval of an interlocal agreement with Dallas County to perform
ditch work along Sandy Lake Road (from Denton Tap Rd. to Coppell Rd.)
with Dallas County and the City of Coppell equally sharing the cost of
materials, equipment and labor necessary to perform the work , at a cost not
to exceed $11,570 as budgeted in the IMF; and authorizing the Mayor to
sign.
One maintenance project identified in the infrastructure maintenance fund program for this year
is ditch work at various locations in the city. The city has previously leased a maintainer and
performed some ditch work at various locations. This interlocal will continue the ditch work
program along both sides of Sandy Lake Road (from Denton Tap Rd. to Coppell Rd.)
We have been in contact with Dallas County and because Sandy Lake Road is classified as a
county Type “B” road, Dallas County shares in the cost of the work at a 50% rate. The goal of
this program is to provide the necessary ditch work to help alleviate the standing water
immediately west of Denton Tap Road, generally adjacent to the Exxon Mobil station.
Approval of the interlocal agreement will allow the city to have the necessary work performed at
50% of the actual cost by partnering with Dallas County. It is estimated that the work will take
approximately nine workdays to complete. Dallas County typically works four-day workweeks;
therefore, the project would take approximately 2 ½ weeks, barring any bad weather days.
Staff recommends approval of the interlocal agreement between Dallas County and the City of
Coppell to provide for ditch work along Sandy Lake Road between Denton Tap Rd. and Coppell
Rd.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the council meeting.

RE: Consider approval of a variance to Floodplain Management Ordinance No.
94-639, Article 4, Section B, Item 11(a), which states that the Floodplain
Administrator must “assure that conditional approvals are received from the
Federal Emergency Management Agency before a Floodplain Development
Permit is issued” for the proposed St. Andrews Estates along Denton Creek.
St. Andrews Estates is located north of Deforest Road with Denton Creek being both north and
west of the proposed development. Currently, a portion of the floodplain of Denton Creek
encroaches on the property. In May 2004, a floodplain study for reclamation was submitted to
this office and on May 10, 2004, the flood study was processed to our consultant for review for
compliance with the city’s floodplain ordinance and with Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) guidelines. The flood study meets our requirements and has been sent to
FEMA. Prior to work beginning on the project, the City must issue a Floodplain Development
Permit to the developer. However, the Floodplain Management Ordinance states that a permit
cannot be issued until conditional approvals are received from FEMA.
The developer is requesting a variance from the Floodplain Ordinance so that the reclamation
process can begin now. As stated to the developer, the reclamation cannot begin until a
Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) has been received from FEMA and the city has
issued a Floodplain Development Permit. The study has been sent to FEMA and it typically
takes six to eight weeks to receive the CLOMR from FEMA.
This variance request is submitted with the following stipulations: 1) a letter is provided from
FEMA stating that they have all the necessary information to proceed with the review of the
flood study; 2) any changes requested by FEMA during the flood study be complied with prior to
acceptance by the city; and 3) no building permits will be issued on any lots within the
subdivision until the study has been approved by FEMA.
Previously, the City has granted similar variances to Big Cedar subdivision and Villages of
Coppell Phase 3B. Compliance with the above stipulations will be monitored by staff.
Therefore, staff recommends approval of this request and will be available to answer any
questions at the council meeting.

Date: July 6, 2003
RE: Consider approval of a license agreement between the City of Coppell and
Windsor Estates of Coppell Residential Association, Inc. to allow the existing
entry feature and landscaping to remain within a portion of the Deforest
Road right-of-way; and authorizing the City Manager to sign.
On July 22, 2003, City Council approved license agreements between the City of Coppell and six
property owners in the Villages of Coppell Phase IIIB concerning the usage of excess right-of-
way associated with Deforest Road. During the process of doing the background work to
ascertain whether or not the right-of-way could be used for other purposes, it was noted that the
entry feature and landscaping associated with the Windsor Estates subdivision had been
constructed within the right-of-way of Deforest Road. In reviewing information provided at the
time the development was proceeding through the Planning and Zoning Commission and City
Council, it was shown that the entry feature and landscaping would be within the right-of-way,
however; no official approvals or licenses agreements were ever executed between the City and
the home owners association.
To insure that the city’s rights are protected and the city is not held liable for any damage to the
entry feature in the future, a license agreement should be executed between the City of Coppell
and the Windsor Estates of Coppell Residential Association, Inc.
The license agreement will allow the existing entry feature and landscaping to remain within a
portion of a 10-foot right-of-way dedicated with the final plat of Villages of Coppell Phase III
and within a portion of the right-of-way dedicated with the Windsor Estates plat for the
realignment of Deforest Road. Copies of both plats are provided with the license agreement.
Staff offers no objections to the license agreement between the City of Coppell and the Windsor
Estates of Coppell Residential Association, Inc.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.

assigns or those holding under LICENSEE. LICENSEE shall at all times defend, protect and
indemnify and it is the intention of the parties hereto that LICENSEE hold CITY harmless
against and from any and all loss, cost, damage, or expense, including attorney’s fee, arising out

HISTORY: In 1990, a Final Plat and Site Plan were approved for a 13.7-acre tract
of property. The original plans included the construction of a
152,000-square-foot building (existing) and a proposed Phase 2
expansion to include a 138,000-square-foot building on the property
adjacent to Sandy Lake Road, which was never constructed. In 1999,
City Council approved a replat for the northern 4.1 acres to make this
tract a separate lot. This approval was subject to a condition that any
modification to the existing building would require a site plan review
and a replat.
The Planning Commission reviewed a Site Plan package on
May 20, 2004, and continued the case to June 17, 2004, in
order for the applicant to provide revised north and west
elevations.
TRANSPORTATION:Both Royal Lane and Sandy Lake Road are projected to be C4D/6, four-lane
divided thoroughfares in a six-lane divided right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- Vacant: LI (Light Industrial)
South - Stone Panels, Inc., LI (Light Industrial)
East - AmberPoint Business Park, LI (Light Industrial)
West - Vacant: LI (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property
as suitable for Light Industrial/Showroom.
DISCUSSION: A 57,302-square-foot office warehouse with seven lease spaces is
proposed to be erected on this 4.1-acre site. The primary tenant will be
BCE Specialties, Inc., an elevator finish-out company (occupying 22,761-
square feet). The remaining six lease spaces will range from 5,000- to
7,515-square feet. The tenants are unknown at this time.
There are three 9’x10’ sheltered dock high doors (four feet above ground
level) located on the southeast corner of the proposed warehouse to
support BCE Specialties, Inc. Each of the smaller lease spaces will have
one 10’x10’ grade-level overhead door. These are designed for smaller
trucks. All loading will be screened with a 10’ wall on the east and west
Item # 4
Page 3 of 5
and with landscaping (45 Eastern Red Cedars and 18 Cedar Elms) along
the south property line.
The access point and median opening along Sandy Lake are being
coordinated with the developers to the north. The access point along
Royal is shown at the south end of the property but will have to be
relocated due to drainage concerns regarding the location of a storm water
inlet. The parking space requirement is calculated with the inclusion of
27,600-square-feet of office space. The building total usage will be
limited to 48% office space with the remainder to be warehousing.
The access point along Royal will not need to be relocated provided
that the Engineering Department approves a modified drainage plan.
The Landscape Plan should be modified to reflect the Streetscape Plan and
should reflect certain criteria related to the following:
1. Primary Image Zone,
2. Secondary Intersection, and
3. Industrial land use.
Within the primary image zones, “Cedar Elms are the dominant street tree
in the median and the edges, accented with Redbud and Wild Plum and
accent overstory trees of Sweet Gum or Chinese Pistache.” The secondary
intersection should have “consistent landscape elements to include a 12”
high planting bed for annual and perennial flowers, background plantings
of pink and white Crape Myrtles to highlight the bed, and accent overstory
trees of Sweet Gum and Chinese Pistache.” The edge design should
reflect an industrial land use. This calls for Live Oaks to “soften the edge
and provide year-round screening.” Approval will be contingent upon the
Landscape Architect revising the plans.
The Landscape Architect has modified the plans to reflect the
requirements listed in the Streetscape Ordinance.
The elevations show two shades of gray with aqua accent squares. Staff
requested the applicant to show additional reveals, articulations and
windows along the north elevation due to the size of the building and its
frontage along Sandy Lake. The Zoning Ordinance makes this a
requirement if a building exceeds 100’ in length. The entrance fronting
the intersection of Sandy Lake and Royal is recommended to be enhanced
as this is one of the major entryways into Coppell.
Item # 4
Page 4 of 5
The Architect has changed the following:
1. The soffits were raised from 10’ to 12’ in height.
2. The columns at each entry were extended 2’ from the main
structure vertically and horizontally; therefore, the longest
expanse without articulation is 69.5’.
3. Canopies were added to each of the entry features, except
the east elevation.
4. Can lights were added at each entry to provide shadows,
which add interest to the building at night (on original
submittal).
5. More accent squares were added (two on each side of the
entry).
6. The future entry was added to create a continuous rhythm.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
The Planning staff recommends APPROVAL of the Site Plan, subject to the
following conditions being met:
1) Revise the 60’ building setback with parking easement shown in the
wrong location parallel with the jog in the property line.
2) Include all dimensions of the property.
3) Due to frontage onto Sandy Lake, a Primary Image Zone, show
additional architectural accents to break up the expanse of the wall.
These may include items such as reveals, windows, and wall
articulations, among others.
4) Enhance the entrance abutting Sandy Lake and Royal. A canopy
was added to both sides of the entrance.
5) The Landscape Plan should be modified to reflect the Streetscape
Plan and should reflect certain criteria related to the following:
a. Primary Image Zone,
b. Secondary Intersection, and
c. Industrial land use.
6) A Tree Removal Permit will be required prior to removal of any
protected trees on the site.
Item # 4
Page 5 of 5
7) Tree Mitigation Tabulations on Existing Tree Plan are correct. A

HISTORY: In 1990, a Final Plat and Site Plan were approved for a 13.7-acre tract
of property. The original plans included the construction of a
152,000-square-foot building (existing) and a proposed Phase 2
expansion to include a 138,000-square-foot building on the property
adjacent to Sandy Lake Road, which was never constructed. In 1999,
City Council approved a replat for the northern 4.1 acres to make this
tract a separate lot. This approval was subject to a condition that any
modification to the existing building would require a site plan review
and a replat.
The Planning and Zoning Commission denied the replat for this
property on May 20, 2004, due to changes that needed to be
made to the north and west elevations of the Site Plan package.
TRANSPORTATION:Both Royal Lane and Sandy Lake Road are projected to be C4D/6, four-lane
divided thoroughfares in a six-lane divided right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- Vacant, LI (Light Industrial)
South - Stone Panels, Inc., LI (Light Industrial)
East - AmberPoint Business Park, LI (Light Industrial)
West - Vacant, LI (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property
as suitable for Light Industrial/Showroom.
DISCUSSION: This is a 4.1-acre replat of the Four Seasons Addition, Lot 2. A 57,302-
square-foot office/warehouse is proposed. BCE Specialties, Inc., an
elevator finishing company, will be the primary tenant and occupy 22,761-
square feet. The business does the interior finish-out of elevators, then
ships them to their final destination. The remaining six lease spaces will
range from 5,000- to 7,515-square feet, and the tenants are currently
unknown.
There are three proposed ingress/egress points (two from Sandy Lake and
one from Royal). The access point along Royal is shown at the south end of
the property, but will have to be relocated due to drainage concerns regarding
the location of a storm water inlet. The fire lane easement encircles the
building and is accessible off two of the three ingress/egress points. The
location of the fire lane easement will be need to be revised to reflect the
Item # 5
Page 3 of 4
access point relocation along Royal. It will be reevaluated by the Fire
Marshal to ensure conformance with the City of Coppell standards.
The access point along Royal will not need to be relocated provided the
Engineering Department approves a modified drainage plan.
There is a 24’ access easement depicted on the northeast corner of the
property. This will need to be extended to connect with the fire lane and be
renamed a fire lane and access easement.
There is a 24’ fire lane and access easement shown connected by an
access easement to the east.
There are other minor technical details outlined in the plat conditions. After
those are met, the subdivision will meet the Subdivision Ordinance
requirements.
The technical details outlined in the plat conditions were met.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the Replat, subject to the following conditions being met:
1) Extend access easement located on the northeast corner of the plat to the proposed
fire lane easement, and rename to “fire lane and access easement.”
2) Clearly identify the fire lane easement (shade or bold).
3) Change the Flood Plain Administrator’s signature block to read 2004 in place of
2003.
4) Exclude the specific names under the signature blocks of the utility providers.
5) Show bearings and distances of the fire lane and drainage easements.
6) Indicate turning radii for fire lane (30’ inside, 54’ outside are the minimum required).
7) Compliance with the attached Engineering comments.

HISTORY: This property was platted in 1987 and replatted in 1992. City Council granted
approval of a 10,000-square-foot retail building site plan of Phase II on May
11, 1999. On November 9, 1999, Council approved a revised plan, reducing
the building size of Phase II to 8,000-square feet. The PD condition for the
entire shopping center limited the restaurant usage on the 4.6 acres of
property (McDonalds & Phase I & II) to a total of 17,300-square feet of
both interior/exterior space, provided parking requirements were met. On
January 13, 2004, City Council approved S-1210 for a 1,500-square foot
Subway restaurant in this retail building (Phase II).

TRANSPORTATION:MacArthur Boulevard is a P6D divided major thoroughfare built to standard
in a 110’ right-of-way. Beltline Road is shown on the Thoroughfare
Plan as a P6D divided major thoroughfare built to standard in a 120’

North - shopping center , C (Commercial)
South - restaurant; PD-157R6 (Planned Development-157R6)
East - shopping center; LI (Light Industrial)
West - vacant; C (Commercial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property
as suitable for regional retail uses.
DISCUSSION: This request is to allow a 1,600-square-foot Cold Stone Creamery
restaurant to occupy one of the lease spaces in the 8,000 square-foot
building (Phase II) west of McDonalds, off Beltline Road. This is a
typical ice cream shop, without a drive-through (only dine-in and/or carry-
out). There are proposed to be four two-seat tables (8 seats total). The
applicant has requested that the hours of operation not exceed 11 a.m. to
11 p.m., seven days a week.
Per the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, parking for this use is
required at a ratio of one space per 100-square feet, thus requiring 16
parking spaces. Prior to the Cold Stone Creamery proposal, the remainder of
square footage devoted to restaurant use for the entire 4.6 acre development
(McDonalds & Phase I & II) was 3,300-square feet after Subway was added.
Including the Cold Stone Creamery would bring the future allowable
restaurant uses to 1,700-square feet for the entire PD (McDonalds & Phase I
& II), provided that none of the current restaurant uses cease.
This lease space will have 19’ 7” of frontage along Beltline Road;
therefore, the requested 18.75-square-foot sign is allowable per the Sign
Ordinance. The sign face is proposed to be white-channel letters and the
logo will be limited to 20% of the total area.

HISTORY: On September 12, 2000, City Council approved a Conceptual
Planned Development district (PD-186-LI) for industrial uses to
allow the development of seven office/warehouse facilities on
approximately 143 acres of property. Also approved was a Final Plat
for this property to allow the construction of the extension of Freeport
Parkway from Bethel Road to Ruby Road.
On January 9, 2001, Council approved a Detail Plan for Tracts 4 and
4X (along the eastside of Freeport, north of Bethel Road) for this PD.
Part of this approval was a condition to prepare a Tree Mitigation
Plan.
In October 2001, Council approved a reduction of parking required
for warehouse uses on Tract 1 from one space per 1,000- square
feet to one space per 5,000-square feet (across Freeport to the east
of this property); allowed for additional monument signage for the
entire PD, and attached a Tree Reparation/Landscape Plan to the
PD.
In May 2002, Council approved PD-186R3 for a Concept Plan
for a 195,000-square-foot building, with reduced parking for
Tract 3 of the original PD (Proposed Lots 6 & 7). Also that
evening, Council approved PD-186R4, for a Detail Plan for Tract 4
(tract southeast of this property) to allow the development of an
approximate 160,000-square-foot building for Uline, Inc. This
building is currently occupied with potential expansion of the
structure approved.
In January 2003, a Detail Plan was attached for Tract 1 of this PD
(across Freeport to the east) to allow for the construction of a
1,101,500-square-foot office/warehouse building. The Container
Store now occupies 653,500-square feet, with a future expansion
area of 150,000-square feet. The remaining 298,000-square feet is
available for lease to another tenant.
TRANSPORTATION:The construction of Freeport Parkway is complete through this property as a
C4D/6 four-lane divided built in a six-lane (120-foot) R.O.W. Bethel
Road is proposed to be a C4D, (four-lane divided within a 110-foot
R.O.W) west of Freeport Parkway. East of Freeport Parkway, Bethel
Road is a C2U, two-lane undivided street within 50 feet of right-of-
way. There is a 34’ Hike and Bike easement along the western
property line (17.5’ actually on the property). A 12-foot-wide trail
will be constructed in the future (date uncertain).

East – Container Store; PD-186R5-LI (Light Industrial)
West - Champion; PD- 185-LI, Tradepoint (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property as
suitable for office, showroom, light industrial and
warehousing uses.
DISCUSSION:
This request is to attach a Detail Plan to this PD to allow for the construction of two
office/warehouse buildings, 140,000-square-feet and 69,000-square-feet on Lots 6 and 7,
respectively. The tenants are currently unknown.
Parking
As discussed in the HISTORY section, an amendment to this PD was approved in May
2002 to allow for the required parking to be reduced from one space per 1,000-square
feet for warehouse use to one space per 5,000-square feet. Under this ratio, 208 parking
spaces would be required for this development, which includes 25% devoted to office
space (one space per 300-square feet) and 75% for warehouse. This plan indicates 431
parking spaces, which equates to one space per 618-square feet of warehouse use, which
exceeds the standard parking requirements for warehouse use. The future parking
locations on the west side of the structures (located in the potential loading areas) is not
included in these calculations. Given that the user is unknown at this time, this future
parking and excess parking is provided to accommodate any additional unforeseen
intensity.
Monument Sign
The 2001 revision to this PD also allowed for additional monument signage to be
included in this PD. Specifically, this tract, now two lots, was permitted to have one 60-
square-foot monument sign to advertise the occupant of the one building. The current
request is for two 60-square foot monument signs to be permitted, one for the north and
one on the south. These are proposed to be located within each site along the common
drive at the split. These will amend the proposed signage of the 148-acre master sign
plan to add one additional sign and allow for less separation between them and the
adjacent property line than is required. The signage will need to match the typical sign
elevation attached with the elevations. Furthermore, it must be noted that these buildings
will also be allowed to have signage attached to the buildings to advertise their
occupants.
Item # 7
Page 4 of 4
Landscape Plan
The Landscape Plan submitted meets the City’s minimum requirements. The building
proposed on Lot 6 will be partially screened by the existing Uline, Inc., building. Along
the eastern boundary of Lot 6, there are proposed Cedar Elms every 50’. East of this
property line are existing trees already spaced at 50’ intervals. The proposed Cedar Elms
will be placed in between the view of the existing trees and will provide a continuous
screen for the eastern boundary. Along the north, south and western boundaries of Lot 6
are 9 Bald Cypress, 12 Bald Cypress and 22 Cedar Elms, respectively. In addition, the
western boundary has 66 Eastern Red Cedars to screen the truck loading area. The
landscaped entry at the east side of the lot provides a visual buffer between the
northwestern building and Freeport Parkway. This will have 10 Live Oaks, 5 Chinese
Pistache, 3 Cedar Elms and 7 Redbuds. The western property line of Lot 7 is to be
landscaped similarly to the western property line of Lot 6. The southern property line
will mirror the northern property line of Lot 6. The property line running along Freeport
will have the following spaced adjacent to the right-of-way on a grassy berm:
7 Bald Cypress,
13 Live Oaks,
12 Wax Myrtle’s,
5 Chinese Pistache,
6 Cedar Elms, and
7 Redbuds
Access
There are three access points proposed. One is located at the north end, one toward the
middle and one at the south boundary of Freeport. The southernmost drive will be a fire
lane and mutual access drive with Uline, Inc., and each of the proposed buildings. The
two proposed lots will share a drive in the middle and be served by a median break. The
trees lost within the median by the construction will be relocated/replaced. The
northernmost entry will serve the northern building.
Architecture
The previously approved Concept Plan for this site showed a 194,000-square-foot
building on one lot. Due to the excess capacity of the pond located east of this property
(The Container Store), the detention pond previously proposed is not needed; therefore,
the current proposal is for two smaller buildings located on two lots that partially drain to
the eastern property. The north building is 70,000-square feet and the south building is
140,000-square feet, totaling 210,000-square feet. Multiple buildings are preferred over
the previously proposed single building in order to break up the building expansiveness.
The colors proposed are earth-tone colors. The main colors are Egret white (cream) and
Stucco Greige (beige), with an accent color of Victoria Falls (seafoam green). The
elevations of the buildings give dimensions between the proposed articulation of each
building’s façade. There are several distances between articulation changes that do not
meet the 100’ maximum distance requirement set forth in the Zoning Ordinance. Staff,
in meeting with the applicant, pointed out the deficiency in articulation. The applicant
Item # 7
Page 5 of 4
deferred the architectural change to the Planning and Zoning Commission for their
recommendation. Staff recommends enhancing the visible sections of the buildings from
the roadway with the necessary articulation and additional entryway features in order to
meet this requirement.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of this request, subject to the following conditions:
1) Make sure visibility issues are addressed for the median openings when the
left turn lanes are completed. Some of the trees may be within a visibility area.
2) Show all proposed easements (public or private) on the Site Plan.
3) Reflect the correct zoning information (PD-186R3-LI) in the reference to the
parking requirement variance.
4) Revise elevations to show additional articulation, reveals and accent materials.
5) Specify color and material to be used on the black-and-white elevations.
ALTERNATIVES
1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3) Recommend modification of the request
4) Take under advisement for reconsideration at a later date.

DISCUSSION: This is a replat of Lot 2, Block A, Duke-Freeport Addition. It is
establishing two lots (Lots 6 & 7). Both lots will be served by the same
two mutual access and fire lane easements encircling each of the proposed
structures. Lot 6 has two private drainage easements to accept the runoff
from Lot 7. This will allow Lot 7 to drain to the south into a larger
drainage easement already established along the southern property line.
There is a 10’ utility easement along the south end of the property
adjacent to this larger drainage easement. Along the west property line is
a Hike and Bike Trail easement overlaying a TXU utility easement and a
TXU gas/electric easement. There is a 10’ utility easement along Freeport
to be established by this plat. Also, there is a 15’ private sewer easement
proposed to serve Lot 7 through Lot 6. Staff recommends extending the
public sewer along Freeport; therefore, this easement will not be
necessary.

HISTORY: This property was platted and developed with a 100,000-square-foot,
two-story building in 1998-99. At that time, it was the home of
Lucent Technologies. In 2000 ownership changed, and today, the

TRANSPORTATION:Freeport Parkway is a C4D/6, four-lane divided thoroughfare within a 95-
foot wide right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North – vacant; HC (Highway Commercial)
South – vacant: HC (Highway Commercial) and LI (Light Industrial)
East – vacant; LI (Light Industrial)
West - LBJ Freeway; A (Agriculture)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property
as suitable for freeway commercial uses.
DISCUSSION: This property was developed as a 99,495-square-foot, two-story building
to house Lucent Technologies in 1998-99. In 2000, the building was
acquired by Avaya Communications and is one of its regional offices.
The generators and fuel tanks are needed for back up to the existing power
grid serving the building. As explained to staff, if there is a power outage,
these back-up generators would ensure 24-hour-per-day, seven-day-per-
week service to the building, with no interruption in service. Based on the
fact that the structure surrounding these facilities is the same design and is
constructed of the same material as the building itself, staff can support
this request.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of this request, subject to the following condition:
1) A tree removal permit will be required if the five trees are removed.
ALTERNATIVES
1) Recommend approval of the request

STAFF REPORT
CASE: Text Amendments to Sign Regulations for
Business Districts
P & Z HEARING DATE: March 18, 2004
C.C. HEARING DATE: April 13, 2004
STAFF REP.: Marcie Diamond, Assistant Planning Director
DISCUSSION: As the City of Coppell matures and various areas develop
and redevelop, sign regulations need to be reviewed and
revised. These revisions address advertising on monument
signs, new signs in existing retail and office buildings and
attached signs in the industrial areas.
The first revision to the Sign Ordinance is to formalize a
long-standing policy, which is based on an interpretation of
the existing ordinance, to discourage multi-tenant office
and retail building owners from placing individual tenant
names on the monument signs. This revision will limit the
verbiage on the sign to the name/address of the building
only. The rationale for this change is based on long-term
maintenance, safety and aesthetic issues. Typically, when a
tenant moves out, the building owner retains the nameplate
on the monument sign until a new tenant moves in. This
results in businesses, no longer at that location, being
advertised. When a new tenant moves in, and the
nameplate is replaced, it generally does not match the other
tenant nameplates, in terms of color, font and materials.
These signs then become unsightly. In addition, older
monument signs have so many businesses listed that
driving along adjacent streets, at the posted speed limit,
makes reading the sign difficult.
The proposed revisions to this provision are indicated with
double underline.

“Sec. 12-29-4. Provisions for business zoning
districts.
Signs are permitted in any business zoning district,
subject to the following restrictions.
….
2. Monument signs: Monument signs are
permitted in business zoning districts as
follows.
(A) Monument signs must be built on a
monument base, as opposed to a pole
base, with no separation between the
base of the sign and natural grade. A
monument sign shall contain only the
name, logo, address, product or service
of the establishment, and in the case of
gasoline service stations only, the price
per gallon of gasoline, and in the case of
governmental and religious
organizations only, information
concerning forthcoming public events. In
the case of a multi-tenant office or retail/
commercial building, the monument sign
shall only advertise the name/address of
the building or retail center, and not the
individual tenants of the building. No
other advertising or promotional
information is permitted thereon. Such
sign may be single or double-faced. Can
signs made of plastic or similar
materials are not permitted as detached
(monument) signs. Backlit plastic is not
permitted within detached (monument)
signs.
The intent of the second revision is to allow a new sign to
match the existing color of all of the existing signs on a
building, although not compliant with the current color
palette of the Ordinance. For example, the medical
office/retail building at 580 S. Denton Tap Road, all of the
signs are red. A new sign being white, ivory, black or
neutral colors would not be aesthetically pleasing. The
option of changing all signs to be compliant with the
existing color palette is also encouraged. All new signage
Item # 9
Page 3 of 4
in existing retail centers, which have a variety of multi-
colored signs, shall be compliant with the color pallet of the
existing Sign Ordinance.
….
“3. Attached signs: Attached signs are
permitted in business areas in
accordance with the following
provisions:
i. Attached signs shall consist of
individually-mounted channel
letters in white, ivory, black or
neutral colors. In the event that a
building has existing attached
signs of all one color, not
compliant with the colors
specified herein, then the new
sign may either match the color
of the existing signs on the
building, or be white, ivory, black
or neutral. It is the intent of this
provision that all tenant signage
be the same color in any
individual building. Raceways
shall match the color of the
materials to which they are
mounted. All illumination shall be
limited to white or off-white.
Logos in any color shall be
permitted, but shall not exceed
20 percent of the area of the sign.
Attached signs in areas zoned
Light Industrial are exempt from
the color and logo size
restrictions and the requirement
for individually-mounted letters.
Refer to 12-29-4.3(D) for
additional regulations on attached
signs in Industrial zoned areas.
….
This revision also includes an exemption to the provisions
of this Ordinance for buildings constructed in areas zoned
Light Industrial. Given the size and massing of the typical
buildings in our industrial areas, attached signs actually
provide architectural relief and interest in an otherwise

unadorned wall. No revisions are being recommended to
the permitted height, effective area, location of attached
signs, etc. in the industrial areas.
