MEMORANDUM
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., Director of Engineering/Public Works
DATE: April 12, 2005
REF: Consider approval of a development agreement between Billingsley 121
Coppell, Ltd. and the City of Coppell to allow for the dedication of right-of-
way, drainage easement and temporary slope easements necessary for Sandy
Lake Road in consideration of a 100% credit against future impact fees on the
Billingsley 121 Coppell, Ltd. tract; and authorizing the City Manager to sign.
Sandy Lake Road from Denton Tap Rd. to S.H. 121 has been under design since December 12,
2000. At the start of design it was decided to break the project into two parts. Section A is from
S.H. 121 to North Coppell Rd. and Section B is from North Coppell Rd. to Denton Tap Rd.
It is anticipated that Section A will be placed out to bid and the contract awarded for construction
in the 4th quarter of 2005. During the design of West Sandy Lake Rd. Section A, I have had
several meetings with potential developers along both sides of Sandy Lake Rd.
In late 2003, we began discussions with the property owner at the southeast corner of Sandy
Lake Rd. and S.H. 121. The property owner at that time was T E Northpoint Partners Ltd.
During the course of our discussions, the property was sold in 2004 to Billingsley 121 Coppell,
Ltd. Since mid-2004, the City has been working with Mr. Billingsley to acquire the necessary
right-of-way for the construction of not only west Sandy Lake Rd., but also the remaining
portion of Royal Lane. Mr. Billingsley has recently agreed to a development agreement with the
City of Coppell, which is similar to most development agreements that we have entered into in
the past, with one notable exception. That exception is found at the end of paragraph two, which
states that after full development of the Billingsley tract, if the credit exceeds the amount of the
roadway impact fees assessed, then the City is liable and obligated to pay any such remaining
credits in cash or cash equivalent to Billingsley 121 Coppell, Ltd. or it’s successors.
In essence, a value has been placed on the right-of-way, slope easements and drainage easements
required from this property in a total amount of $331,380. If the property was already developed
or there was no future development on the horizon, the city would typically write a check for the
amount to acquire the right-of-way. In this case, the land is vacant and there is potential for the
property to develop in the near future; therefore, Mr. Billingsley has stated that he is in
agreement with the developers agreement which would just offset his roadway impact fees as he
develops. If at the end of the full development of the property there is still a credit remaining,
then the City would be obligated to pay that. However, if during the course of development, the
roadway impact fees exceed the amount of the credit, then at that point the development would
begin paying roadway impact fees to the City of Coppell.
At the request of Mr. Billingsley, we did run several scenarios on the property, to determine the
approximate roadway impact fees.
Scenario 1 included:
350,000 sq. ft. light industrial building
20,000 sq. ft. shopping center,
6,000 sq. ft. shopping center, and
4,000 sq. ft. restaurant
The total of impact fees for Scenario 1 is slightly more than $150,000. So, in that scenario, once
the property was fully developed the city would still have a balance of approximately $178,000
to pay to the property owners.
Scenario 2 included:
Community College
The total estimated impact fee would be $918,000. On community colleges, the impact fee is
based on the number of students. We reviewed the surrounding community colleges and used an
estimate of 8,500 students at this site.
Once the property developed, the property owner would still owe the city approximately
$580,000 in roadway impact fees.
Any number of scenarios could be generated and at this point it is unknown whether the future
buildout of the site will necessitate additional money paid by the city at the end of the
development or whether or not we will begin collecting roadway impact fees during the course
of the development.
Approval of this development agreement allows the city to acquire the necessary right-of-way
without any current out of pocket expenses and allows us to proceed with the construction of
West Sandy Lake Road. Staff recommends approval of the development agreement and will be
available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.

Re: Extension of SUP for TXU Electrical Delivery Substation
Dear Marcie:
The Coppell City Council unanimously approved a zoning change request for Case Number S-1217-LI
on 9 November 2004. The zoning change provides for a Special Use Permit that allows for the
construction of an electrical substation on 4.3 acres of property on Southwestern Boulevard.
Subsequent to that action, an ordinance was prepared by staff and ratified by the City Council on 14
December 2004.
City rules, however, require that a building permit be issued or an extension be granted by City
Council. To that end, TXU ED respectfully requests an extension of the SUP for an additional eighteen
months. This will allow for continued project development by the Transmission and Distribution
divisions of the company that coordinate this project. The electrical substation provides a necessary
service for the City of Coppell and involves significant construction development not generally
associated with private industry.
I welcome the opportunity to discuss this matter and answer any questions that you might have. I
hope that this can be placed on an agenda as soon as possible.
Cordially,

HISTORY: The subject property is part of Lot 3, Block G, a 49.20-acre tract
within the Vista Ridge Addition. The property lies within Denton
County and was originally part of the City of Lewisville when
recorded in September of 1986. Since that time, the City of Coppell
has annexed this and other portions of the Vista Ridge Business Park.
In September 1999, a request for a PD for a gas station, convenience
store and car wash on 1.5 acres at the southwest corner of S.H. 121
Item # 4
Page 2 of 5
and MacArthur Boulevard was recommended for denial by staff.
Due to this recommendation, the applicant requested a postponement
until December of that year to allow for a redesign of the site plan
and elevations to address staff design concerns, but staff still strongly
opposed the use at this location. On December 16, 1999, the
Planning and Zoning Commission recommended denial of this
request, and it was not appealed to Council.
In September 2001, Council approved a Site Plan and Final Plat to
allow for the construction of a one-story, 71,000-square-foot office
building on seven acres of this 26-acre parcel of land. The Site Plan
would have expired on September 11, 2003; however, on September
9, 2003, Council approved a six-month extension. The approved Site
Plan expired in March 2004.
On April 13, 2004, Council overruled staff’s and the Planning and
Zoning Commission’s recommendation for denial and approved a
Concept Planned Development to allow the construction of 210,000-
square feet of office/warehouse/assembly buildings and five retail
pad sites. In August 2004, Council approved the Detail Plan for the
first phase of this development, consisting of three buildings,
totaling 93,550-square feet. This first phase of development is
currently under construction.
Also approved in April of last year was S-1211 for a gas station and
car repair on Lot 4 of this PD. This Special Use Permit expired in
October of last year, and resubmission of this SUP is expected to be
considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission next month.
.
TRANSPORTATION:S.H. 121 is under construction to freeway standards with access roads, within
450 feet of right-of-way. MacArthur Blvd., adjacent to this property,
is a six-lane divided thoroughfare in the City of Lewisville.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - S.H. 121, City of Lewisville
South - PD-132-SF-9, The Peninsulas of Coppell, and PD-149-SF-7,

East - PD-202-TH-1 (Villas of Lake Vista) and office park; LI
(Light Industrial), City of Lewisville
West - Vistas of Coppell, PD-149-SF-7 (Single-Family)
DISCUSSION: As discussed in the HISTORY section, this property was zoned in April of
last year as part of a PD for Highway Commercial uses. This request is to
Item # 4
Page 3 of 5
amend the PD to attach a Detail Site Plan to allow the construction of a
5,580-square-foot bank facility with five drive-through lanes, with sufficient
service/queuing area for a total of 30 cars. There will be 27 parking spaces,
which exceeds the office ratio of one space per 300-square feet of floor area
by eight spaces. The building is oriented at an angle toward the northeast
corner of the site, providing for an aesthetic entry feature with plaza, stone
wall, planter and flagpole.
The Landscape Plan is in compliance with the provisions of the PD, which
allows, in part, for variances to the 10 feet of perimeter landscape required
adjacent to the internal lot lines. This plan, however, exceeds the
expectations of the Concept Plan in terms of exceeding all other levels of
landscaping, as well as preserving mature trees along MacArthur Boulevard.
The Concept Plan indicated that all but three of the trees would be removed
from this site. This proposed Landscape Plan includes a 40+ foot-wide
landscape buffer along MacArthur Blvd., allowing for the preservation of
seven trees (a total of 72-caliper inches of Live Oak and Cedar Elm trees),
while only removing two Cedar Elms to allow for driveways into the
property. One minor revision is needed to the Landscape Plan, that being the
screening of a 10’x10’ power transformer pad proposed along the western
property line. The applicant revised the plans to indicate large shrubs;
however, the plant material selected (Red Tip Photinia) is not on our Plant
Palette. A shrub from our plant list will need to be substituted.
This property will be accessed from two mutual access (shared) driveways
from MacArthur Blvd. The Coppell/Lewisville mutual city limit line is
located along the western right-of-way line of MacArthur Blvd.; and
therefore, the City of Lewisville has final authority on the design and location
of the deceleration lanes within their rights-of-way. It is staff’s understanding
that the City of Lewisville has yet to approve these designs. (This is actually
an outstanding condition from the original PD approved a year ago).
A related issue is the location of the southern driveway in relation to Lake
Vista Drive, which is also in the City of Lewisville. As noted in the attached
comments from the Engineering Department, this proposed driveway is
slightly offset from Lake Vista Drive. Because of safety considerations, it is
recommended that this driveway align with Lake Vista Drive.
A companion request is the replatting of this lot to relocate the north/south
fire lane from behind the building to the front of the building to allow for the
drive-through facility in the rear. To assure that all parts of the building,
including the drive-through lanes, are within 150 feet of a fire lane, either the
fire lane proposed (and platted) on Lot 2, adjacent to this site, needs to be
constructed, or a hammer-head (turn-around) will be required on the northern
fire lane into the Service Star lot, as shown on the Site Plan. Given that both
of these fire lanes have been included as fire lane easements on the Final Plat
Item # 4
Page 4 of 5
for this property, the paving of either, prior to the Certificate of Occupancy
being issued for the bank, will be required.
The Concept Plan for this PD also included concept elevations and
preliminary building material selection for this entire 19-acre property.
The intent was to utilize the same color and material palette on the entire
project so that this property would appear to be a master planned area.
However, the industrial nature of the developments on Lots 1 and 2
required approval of certain elements of the building (i.e., flat rooflines,
metal canopies, light colored brick and stone to be compatible with the
tilt-wall, etc.), which are normally not appropriate for retail developments.
The building materials proposed for this bank are more retail in nature.
There is a combination of two types of lime stone veneers, Leuders
Limestone as the main building material, and a West Texas Limestone as
an accent material for the columns. The slate gray standing seam metal
roof will also be a predominate feature of this building and will be
extended to cover the drive-through facility. These materials are darker in
nature and are much more attractive than the “hot” colors of the
warehouse buildings. It is expected that the remaining retail lots along
MacArthur Blvd. will have similar materials and architectural
characteristics of this first retail building, instead of the industrial
materials of the buildings west of this project.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of PD-199R2-HC, Vista Point II, Lot 5R, Blk. A (Bank
of Texas), subject to the following conditions:

HISTORY: The subject property is part of Lot 3, Block G, a 49.20-acre tract
within the Vista Ridge Addition. The property lies within Denton
County and was originally part of the City of Lewisville when
recorded in September of 1986. Since that time, the City of Coppell
annexed this and other portions of the Vista Ridge Business Park.
In September 1999, a request for a PD for a gas station, convenience
store and car wash on 1.5 acres at the southwest corner of S.H. 121
Item # 5
Page 2 of 4
and MacArthur Boulevard was recommended for denial by staff.
Due to this recommendation, the applicant requested a postponement
until December of that year to allow for a redesign of the site plan
and elevations to address staff design concerns, but staff still strongly
opposed the use at this location. On December 16, 1999, the
Planning and Zoning Commission recommended denial of this
request, and it was not appealed to Council.
In September 2001, Council approved a Site Plan and Final Plat to
allow for the construction of a one-story, 71,000-square-foot office
building on seven acres of this 26-acre parcel of land. The Site Plan
would have expired on September 11, 2003; however, on September
9, 2003, Council approved a six-month extension. The approved Site
Plan expired in March 2004.
On April 13, 2004, Council overruled staff’s and the Planning and
Zoning Commission’s recommendation for denial and approved a
Concept Planned Development to allow the construction of 210,000-
square feet of office/warehouse/assembly buildings and five retail
pad sites. In August 2004, Council approved the Detail Plan for the
first phase of this development, consisting of three buildings,
totaling 93,550-square feet. This first phase of development is
currently under construction.
Also approved in April of last year was S-1211 for a gas station and
car repair on Lot 4 of this PD. This Special Use Permit expired in
October of last year, and resubmission of this SUP is expected to be
considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission next month.
The replat for this entire 18+-acre tract was approved in August 2004.
.
TRANSPORTATION:S.H. 121 is under construction to freeway standards with access roads, within
450 feet of right-of-way. MacArthur Blvd., adjacent to this property,
is a six-lane divided thoroughfare in the City of Lewisville.

(Light Industrial), City of Lewisville
West - Vistas of Coppell, PD-149-SF-7 (Single-Family)
DISCUSSION: As detailed in the discussion on the Site Plan approval, this property is being
replatted to allow for the relocation of the north/south fire lane from behind
the building to the front of the building. Given this relocation of the fire lane,
the paving of off-site fire lanes are required to assure that all parts of the
building, including the drive-through lanes, are within 150 feet of a fire lane.
This property will be accessed from two mutual access (shared) driveways
from MacArthur Blvd. The Coppell/Lewisville mutual city limit line is
located along the western right-of-way line of MacArthur Blvd.; therefore,
the City of Lewisville has final authority on the design and location of the
deceleration lanes within their rights-of-way.
A related issue is the location of the southern driveway in relation to Lake
Vista Drive, which is also in the City of Lewisville. As noted in the attached
comments from the Engineering Department, this proposed driveway is
slightly offset from Lake Vista Drive. Because of safety considerations, it is
recommended that this driveway align with Lake Vista Drive.
This property is in Denton County, whose filing requirements are different
from Dallas County in terms of sheet size, number of copies, and original
signatures. Therefore, this plat needs to be reformatted to fit on an
18”x24” sheet. For additional requirements, please contact Denton
County at (940) 349-2010.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of Vista Point II, Lot 5R, Blk. A, Replat, subject
to the following conditions:
1. Revise the Replat to indicate the realignment of the southern driveway to
align with Lake Vista Drive.
2. Submission of a letter from the City of Lewisville approving the deceleration
lanes adjacent to this site and/or related issues.
3. Correction of the City Limit Line between Coppell and Lewisville.

P & Z HEARING DATE: March 17, 2005
C.C. HEARING DATE: April 12, 2005
STAFF REP.: Marcie Diamond, Assistant Planning Director
LOCATION: Southeast corner Sandy Lake Road and MacArthur Blvd.
SIZE OF AREA: 10.7 acres of property
CURRENT ZONING: PD-97-R (Planned Development-97-Retail)
REQUEST: PD-97R3-R (Planned Development 97 Revision 3-Retail) to allow
the operation of a charter school and college and/or retail uses within
the existing 120,000 square foot, unoccupied building.
APPLICANT: Karl Crawley Universal Academy Coppell, LLC
Masterplan 700 N. Pearl, Suite 1820

HISTORY: In 1985, City Council approved a zoning change from a Multi-
Family-2 district and a Retail district to PD-97 for retail uses on this
property to allow the development of a 120,000-square-foot shopping
center on 11.6 acres of land. The Final Plat for the Corners of
Coppell Addition was approved in 1986, which encompasses the
subject property as well as the out-lot (Lot 2) at the corner of Sandy
Lake Road and MacArthur Blvd.
Item # 6
Page 2 of 5
It appears that the shopping center changed ownership between 1986
and 1992. In 1992, the current owner, Blue Chip Partners, replatted
the Corners of Coppell into three lots to allow for the marketing of
the individual lots (building and parking) for office uses. Lot 2 was
not included in this replatting activity.
On January 13, 2003, the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended denial of a request to allow the construction of a
5,970-square-foot retail building with a dry cleaners on Lot 2 of the
original PD. This request was denied due to lack of response from
the applicant and issues relating to orientation, size, accessibility and
design of the building. This recommendation for denial was not
appealed to Council.
TRANSPORTATION:Sandy Lake Road has recently been improved to a four-lane divided
thoroughfare within 110 feet of right-of-way west of this property.
The improvements to Sandy Lake Road, adjacent to this property, are
scheduled to start this quarter of 2005. MacArthur Boulevard is
constructed as a four-lane divided thoroughfare with 110’ of right-of-
way which is sufficient to accommodate a six-lane divided roadway.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North – Retail; C (Commercial)
South -Wellington Place Apartments; MF-2 (Multi-Family-2)
West - Single Family-Woodridge, Section 5; PD-145
East - St. Joseph Village; PD-114-SF-7 (Planned Development-114-Single
Family-7)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
neighborhood retail uses
DISCUSSION: This property was developed almost 20 years ago. The anchor grocery store
tenant (Safeway) never occupied this building, and few retail leases that were
entered into. Therefore, a majority of this property has remained unoccupied
since its construction. This request is to allow Universal Academy, a Charter
School, to occupy approximately 64% (73,128-square feet) of the exiting
structure, including the anchor store area and lease spaces to the east. The
remaining 41,475-square feet will be leased for retail uses and/or a
college/university. There is sufficient parking to accommodate a variety of
uses. Although the submitted Site/Landscape Plan does not meet all of the
typical requirements for Site Plan approval, this is not new construction and
Item # 6
Page 3 of 5
the recognition of existing conditions has been incorporated in this Site and
Landscape Plan revision.
Universal Academy Charter School will be relocating from the Town of
Flower Mound to this location. This school is proposing to have an
enrollment of approximately 700 -750 students, and will provide:
• 6 classrooms for Pre-K,
• 24 classrooms for K-6th,
• 6 classrooms for 7-9th grades,
• 6 classrooms for 10-12th grades,
• gym/auditorium,
• lunch room, and a
• playground at the northeast corner of the property.
The hours of operation, will not exceed 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday
through Friday and 6 a.m. until 7 p.m. on Saturdays. However, Saturday
hours are rare and are usually in conjunction with a school function, i.e.
graduation, etc.
As part of the site improvements, the school intends to construct a 6-foot
wrought iron fence around the proposed playground area (currently a parking
lot). It appears that the fence extends along the frontages of Sandy Lake Road
and MacArthur Boulevard. Staff needs additional clarification as to the
exact location of the fence and if it is proposed to cross fire lanes and
driveways. If so, appropriate gates and opticom systems will need to be
installed and approved by the Fire Marshal. Staff is also concerned that this
fencing would not be appropriate (or practical) when the balance of the
shopping center is occupied with retail and/college uses. Staff would like to
encourage the occupancy of retail uses, and, therefore, recommends that the
applicant reevaluate this proposed fencing.
As noted above, the applicant intends to provide a playground in front of the
eastern wing of the school, in an area which is currently a concrete parking
lot. They are indicating that they will install some type of artificial turf over
the concrete. The City does not inspect or permit playground equipment;
therefore, a Certified Playground Inspector/Installer will need to be engaged.
Also, ADA requirements will need to be met for this playground, as well as
the entire school facility.
Access to this property will be via one driveway on MacArthur Boulevard
and three on Sandy Lake Road. Specifically, the parent drop-off route will
be to enter the site via the western driveway and exiting the site at the middle
driveway along Sandy Lake Road. Buses will access the site from
MacArthur Blvd. and exit onto Sandy Lake via the middle driveway, which
will be served by a median opening. The Engineering Department has
Item # 6
Page 4 of 5
requested to review the proposed circulation patterns, including directional
signage, during the initial operations of this school, especially due to the
construction of the improvements to Sandy Lake Road, which are scheduled
to start this month.
For the past several years there has been a concern over the structural
integrity of the bridges over the drainage area, especially the center one,
which will be served by a median opening and will carry most of the
traffic. As commented on by the Fire Marshal, the applicant will be
required to obtain a report from a registered structural engineer certifying
that these bridges/box culverts can support, at a minimum, an 80,000-
pound vehicle.
Although this property has been essentially unoccupied since construction,
the buildings and grounds have been fairly well maintained. This property
does not meet current landscape requirements; however, it is assumed that
the property was in compliance when it was constructed. There are a
significant number of mature trees and landscaping that will remain;
however, dead plant materials and trees will need to be replaced. As
indicated on the Site/Landscape Plan, the applicant intends to provide hedges
to screen the parking lots from MacArthur Blvd. and Sandy Lake Road. A
preliminary submission noted that 7-gallon Burford Hollies would be planted
36” apart for this required screening, although the most recent submission did
not include this level of specificity. If this is still the intent of the applicant,
this information needs to be added to the Site/Landscape Plan.
The applicant has not submitted any information on the attached signage,
except that it will be constructed over the main entrance of the school. Staff
needs more information about this signage; i.e., color, size, etc., to assure
compliance with the Sign Ordinance. The applicant also has stated that no
monument sign will be needed.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of PD-97R3-R, Corners of Coppell
(Universal Academy), subject to the following conditions:
1. Engineering Department review of the proposed circulation patterns
and directional signage during the operation of this school.
2. Provision of additional clarification as to the exact location of the
fence. If it will be crossing fire lanes and driveways, appropriate gates
and opticom systems will need to be installed and approved by the Fire
Marshal.

Item # 7
Page 2of 5
HISTORY: The subject property was originally platted as part of the 14-lot 25.65
acre DTC Business Center, which was filed on January 6, 1987. On
March 26, 1991, Council approved the rezoning of the residential
property to the west from C (Commercial) to PD-115- SF-7
(Wynnpage single-family subdivision). As a result of the
development of the Wynnpage residential subdivision, the DTC
Business Center plat was vacated on May 8, 1992. In November
2002, a Preliminary Plat for three lots and a Site Plan and Final Plat
for Lot 1, Block B, were approved. The current proposal consists of
a Site Plan for two buildings situated on Lot 2, Block B. The plat
being processed concurrently consists of a Final Plat and Replat,
combining two of the preliminary platted lots into one, and
reconfiguring the fire lane and mutual access easement of the already
developed southern lot, respectively.
TRANSPORTATION:Denton Tap Road is a P6D, six-lane divided concrete roadway built to
standard in a 110-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North -undeveloped; C (Commercial)
South -vacant office building; C (Commercial)
East – CISD Administration Building and medical office; C (Commercial)
West - Wynnpage residential subdivision; PD-115-SF-7 (Single-Family 7)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property as
suitable for mixed-use, which includes office and retail uses.
DISCUSSION: The applicant is requesting Site Plan approval for the development of a
one-story 3,500-square-foot office building and a two-story 16,000-
square-foot office/retail building on 2.234 acres of property. The subject
site is located just north of the existing vacant office at the northwest
corner of the intersection of Denton Tap Road and Wynnpage Drive,
directly in front of the Wynnpage residential subdivision. The proposed
buildings will be served by 103 parking spaces, meeting the requirements
for parking with the rear building being devoted solely as medical office
use (3,500-square feet with 20 spaces required) and the front two story
building’s parking calculated as follows:
• Restaurant space – 1,700-square feet with 17 spaces required,
• Outside patio – 940-square feet with 9 spaces required,
Item # 7
Page 3of 5
• Retail – 6,000-square feet with 30 spaces required, and
• Second floor office – 8,000-square feet with 27 spaces
required.
Currently a fire lane exists running from the existing southern
development, extending through this proposal (north), and then running
east into Denton Tap. This fire lane will be realigned to the west,
reconfiguring the previously approved fire lane of this lot (Lot 2, Block B)
and the southern lot (Lot 1, Block B).
The applicant has also stubbed-out the mutual access easement to the
property to the north, providing for future connections. An extension of
the existing masonry screening wall will be constructed along the
southwest property line and will match the existing wall built with the
previous development on Lot 1, to the south.
A 45-square-foot monument sign is proposed along Denton Tap Road.
The sign will be constructed of brick to match the building, an EIFS
background, and black metal letters. The sign is proposed to read
“Wynnpage Plaza” along with two address numbers, one for each
building, as assigned.
Architecture
The proposed building to the rear will be one-story, measuring
approximately 18’-6½” to the peak. The primary building material will be
a dark burgundy brick, with buff colored stone accents at the entrance and
at the windows (East Elevation). The roof material will be composition
shingle, and no attached signage is proposed. The scale and style of the
building remains similar to other office buildings in the area, as well as the
adjacent residential structures.
The proposed retail/office structure to the front of the site will be two-
story, approximately 34’-7” to the peak. The primary building material
will match the building to the rear, being a dark burgundy brick. The
secondary building material will be a dove gray brick color proposed to be
located above and between the storefronts. This color will match the cast
stone proposed at the two entryways on the front elevation. There are
forest green sunbrella awnings proposed above each window and each
storefront. There are also gray and forest green accent tiles to be located
at each entryway on the front extending to the end of each of the adjacent
storefronts. A cast stone ledge separates the first and second stories.
Attached signage, with letters no greater than 14” in height, is proposed to
be located above the awnings on the front elevations. This will meet the
maximum sign area allowed and is in accordance with the Zoning
Item # 7
Page 4of 5
Ordinance. The building is larger in scale than the adjacent office and
residential development on the west side of Denton Tap. The style
contains a flat roof with a parapet wall, which is different than the hip
roofs of the surrounding offices and residences. Although an attractive
building by itself, there’s some question regarding its design compatibility
with the existing and proposed office structures of Wynnpage Plaza.
Landscaping
The proposed Landscape Plan fully provides the required interior,
perimeter and non-vehicular landscape area, including the required
number of trees. There are a total of 55 trees proposed (23 Live Oak, 15
Shumard Oak, & 17 Cedar Elm). The trees for the perimeter landscaping
along the southwest property line are provided just outside the 50’ gas line
easement.
Additionally, there are nine existing trees greater than six-caliper inches, five
of which will be preserved along the northern property line and within the
50’ gas easement (two are 18” Post Oaks). The applicant is required to pull a
tree permit prior to removal.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the Site Plan for Lot 2, Block B, Wynnpage Plaza
North, subject to the following conditions being met:
1. Ensure the lighting meets the glare and lighting standards of the Zoning
Ordinance.
2. Show how the sidewalk ties in with the parking area on the east side of the

Block B. The reason for the platting of Lot 1R, Block B, is the
reconfiguration of the fire lane and mutual access easement. A condition
of approval will require obtaining permission from the current gas
company regulating the 50’ gas easement to realign the fire lane and
mutual access easement and to park within the easement. The
abandonment of the current fire lane and mutual access easement on Lot 2

zoning change from LI (Light Industrial) to PD-189 to allow the
development of an indoor basketball/recreational facility (referred to
as “Hoop Town”) on 17 acres of this 27-acre site. In December of
that same year, Council approved an amendment to the PD to enlarge
the recreational site by approximately .7 of an acre to better address
tree mitigation issues. The zoning was never legally changed, the

plat was never filed, and the project was never built. Today, the
property retains its Light Industrial zoning classification.
TRANSPORTATION:Beltline Road is a P6D, six-lane divided thoroughfare built to standard within
a 120-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North -Railroad, Creekview Add.. LI (Light Industrial) and PD-104- SF-9
South – North Lake, City of Dallas
East - TXU Electric and Gas right-of-way; LI (Light Industrial)
West – Vacant; LI (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property
as suitable for light industrial uses.
DISCUSSION: As outlined in the HISTORY section of this report, there was a proposed
recreational use activity planned for this property roughly four and one-half
years ago. For a variety of reasons, those plans failed to materialize, and the
property is still vacant. It retains a Light Industrial zoning classification and
the current applicant is proposing a use recommended by the Comprehensive
Plan. One 375,000-square-foot warehouse building is requested by
Industrial Development International (IDI), a company which has
constructed a number of similar buildings in Coppell. Their biggest project
in the City is the DFW Trade Center located northwest of S.H. 121 and
shared with the City of Grapevine.
This particular building is typical of our current inventory of warehouse
buildings and appears to meet most provisions of our ordinances. Where
discrepancies have been found, appropriate corrective comments have been
made, as reflected in the conditions for approval section of this report.
The proposal retains a number of trees on the northern portion of the site,
provides a detention pond to control water runoff and is providing parking at
code. The design of the building is typical of our large warehouse structures,
and the elevations approach the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. The
Landscape Plan meets our standards.
Plan discrepancies include a need to show and label fire hydrant locations on
the Site Plan, as well as fire department connections. Also, the applicant
needs to dimension the width of parking spaces. Beltline Road median
alterations must be approved by the City of Dallas. The Site Plan and
Item # 11
Page 3 of 3
Landscape Plan need to reflect a building footprint identical to the building’s
design, including the articulated portions of the structure. With regard to
articulation, it appears that the architect has added articulation elements along
Beltline Road, but there is some question whether the 100-foot maximum
spacing has been met. Further discussion at the public hearing will clarify
staff concern regarding this point. The Engineering Department has some
concerns with this proposal but feels additional conversations will resolve
those concerns. A condition of approval is compliance with Engineering
comments.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of this request, subject to the following
conditions:
1. Show and label all fire hydrants on Site Plan and reconfigure Fire
Department connection locations to the satisfaction of the Fire
Department.
2. Dimension width of parking spaces on Site Plan.
3. Beltline Road median alterations must be approved by the City of
Dallas.
4. Site Plan and Landscape Plan need to reflect a building footprint in
compliance with the building design.
5. Clarify building articulation design dimensions.
6. Compliance with Engineering comments (attached).

MEMORANDUM
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., Director of Engineering/Public Works
DATE: April 12, 2005
REF: Consider approval of an ordinance amending Chapter 3, Section 3-1-12 of
the Code of Ordinances to amend the Daily Water Conservation and
Drought Contingency Plan; and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
On January 8, 2002, City Council approved the latest revisions to the Daily Water Conservation
Plan by including a Drought Contingency Plan. The Texas Commission on Environmental
Quality (TCEQ) has amended Chapter 288 of the Texas Administrative Code, Rule 288.2 to
require a more detailed Water Conservation Plan for municipal uses by public water suppliers.
The amended rules were effective October 7, 2004 with a deadline of May 1, 2005 for
municipalities and other water suppliers to amend their current Water Conservation Plan to be in
compliance with their revised rules. The broad overview of the required changes for the Water
Conservation Plan is that all plans should have a quantified 5-year and 10-year target for
conservation. One means of quantifying water conservation is to review the current gallons/per
capita/per day usage and then develop strategies to reduce usage to reach 5-year and 10-year
target goals.
Changes were also made to the Drought Contingency Plan to provide for targeted quantifiable
goals to be achieved during periods of water shortages and drought. In reviewing our Drought
Contingency Plan approved in January 2002, it is my opinion that our plan as written meets the
requirements of the revised rules. Therefore, Section 6 of the revised Water Conservation and
Drought Contingency Plan is just a restatement of the current Council approved Drought
Contingency Plan of January 2002.
To assist cities in the implementation of the Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan,
and to attempt to create some commonality between various plans, the Region C Water Planning
Group posted a sample policy for municipalities to utilize in the development of their Water
Conservation Plan. All sections of the proposed Water Conservation and Drought Contingency
Plan were modeled after the sample with the exception of Section 6, which is the previously
approved Drought Contingency Plan. To include all required information, the ordinance itself is
60-pages. In an effort to assist City Council in reviewing the ordinance prior to taking action, I
have included a summary sheet that highlights the components of the revised Water
Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan. The entire Rule 288.2 is included in Appendix B,
but basically the items that need to be addressed are: 1) utility profile, 2) current municipal per
capital water use goals, 3) the basis for those goals, 4) quantifiable 5 and 10 year targets for
water conservation, 5) information on the metering devises to insure they have an accuracy of ±
five percent, 6) a program for metering of all water, 7) periodic meter testing and replacement, 8)
measures to determine and control unaccounted for water loss, 9) program for continuing public
education, 10) a water rate structure which provides for higher rates for higher water users, and
11) the means of implementation and enforcement.
Also, because we serve a population of over 5,000, we are required to have a leak detection and
repair program to control unaccounted for water loss and a record management system to record
all water pumped and sold. Finally, the revised rules require an update to the plan no later than
May 1, 2009 and then every five years after that date.
Staff recommends approval of the Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan as
required by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and will be available to answer
any questions at the Council meeting.
Summary
of the
Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan
Section 1, page 5 provides a brief overview of the objectives.
Section 2, page 5 provides a brief overview of the TCEQ rules.
Section 3, page 6 addresses all requirements of the Water Conservation Plan. Therefore, each
subsection will be discussed separately.
Section3, page 7 provides information on our utility system. The basic information is provided
in Table 3.1, page 5.
Section 3.2, page 8 includes Table 3.2, which is from a regional water plan developed by Region
C that shows our projected water usage up through the year 2060. Table 3.3 provides the current
gallons per capita/per day usage and then our projected 5 and 10-year goals. Page 9 provides
information on how we will achieve our goals on water conservation.
Section 3.3, page 9 provides information about the meters that Dallas uses to provide us water
and the meters that we use when the water leaves our pump station.
Section 3.4, page 9 provides information on the City’s meter replacement program. Our goal is
to replace all residential meters on a 10-year cycle. This means we need to replace
approximately 1100 meters per year.
Section 3.5, page 10 provides information on unaccounted for water and the potential causes of
unaccounted for water such as inaccuracies in customer meters, water main breaks, flushing of
lines, fire fighting efforts, etc. This section also includes strategies that we will implement to
insure that we can account for a larger percentage of our unaccounted for water such as replacing
meters on a 10-year cycle, metering all water as we flush our lines and working closely with the
fire department to estimate water loss in fire fighting activities. Section 3.5 also provides some
quantified goals such as responding to all water leaks within two hours and making repairs
within 24 hours.
Section 3.6, page 10 addresses public education and information and list out ways that we will
inform the public such as water bill inserts, Texas Smartscape CD, our website and our cable
access channel.
Section 3.7, page 11 provides information on the water rate structure. The goal from the TCEQ
is to charge higher per/thousand water rates to customers who use a greater amount of water.
Section 3.8, page 12 does not apply to the City of Coppell, as we do not operate a reservoir
system.
Section 3.9, page 12 refers to the adopting ordinance for implementation and enforcement.
Section 3.10, page 12 refers to coordination with the Region C Water Planning Group.
Because our population is greater than 5,000 we have additional requirements. Those are
included in Section 4.
Section 4.1, page 13 provides information on our leak detection and repair program. We
currently spend approximately $555,000/per year to maintain and make repairs and we have two
distribution line maintenance crews. Again, there are several strategies here to reduce water loss
such as responding within 2 hours and making repairs within 24 hours and replacement of
residential meters not only on a 10-year schedule, but also to replace any meters that have
irregular readings within 5 working days.
Section 4.2, page 13 provides information on our record management system. We record all
water pumped, delivered, and sold. We also estimate water losses, etc., on a yearly basis for
reports.
Section 4.3, page 14 only applies if we are a reseller of water on a wholesale basis. Since we do
not resell on a wholesale basis this section is not applicable.
Section 5, page 14 is for optional parts of the plan. These include strategies for additional water
plan conservation, such as providing incentives to encourage citizens to replace their plumbing
fixtures with low water usage fixtures and to mandate retrofits to irrigation systems for rain
sensors. At some point in the future, we may need to address some of these additional
conservation strategies.
Section 6, page 15 is a complete restatement of the Drought Contingency Plan previously
approved by City Council in January 2002.
Appendix A, page 28 list any references that were utilized in the formulation of this policy.
Appendix B, page 30 is the TCEQ rules.
Appendix C, page 41 is a very detailed analysis of our water system. I won’t go into great detail
but it does make for some interesting reading to review the various numbers contained within the
profile.
Appendix C, Table 6, page 45 shows our seasonal water use. The base per capita water use is
based on the months of December, January and February verses the months of June, July and
August. The difference between the average of those months creates your seasonal use. Our
seasonal use has varied from last year’s low of 141 up to a high in the year of 2001 of 231
gallons per capita/per day. That seasonal use is an indication of the increase in water usage
almost solely attributed to outdoor water use. The largest outdoor water use is irrigation in the
summer time.
Appendix C2, page 53 includes information used to calculate our potential savings over the next
5 to 10 years. The numbers generated in Appendix C2 were utilized to complete Table 3.3 on
page 8. Each section includes an example problem and is followed up with numbers for Coppell.
Section I, page 53 provides information for reduction of our unaccounted for water loss. In this
example going from 9.85% to 8% water loss would save approximately 4.2 gallons per capita/
per day.
Section II, page 54 provides information for water savings due to water conserving plumbing
fixtures. New construction requires low water use plumbing fixtures. The Texas Water
Development Board estimates that a savings of 16 gallon per capita/per day can be achieved with
the utilization of low water use plumbing fixtures. In this example we will eventually save over 3
gallons per capita/per day.
Section III, page 55 provides information on reducing seasonal water use. In this example it
shows that we could save anywhere from 3.6 to 10.3 gallons per capita/per day.
Section IV, page 56 provides information on savings due to public education and water rate
programs. In this example it shows that we could save anywhere from 4.8 to 11.4 gallons per
capita/per day.
The summary on page 57 shows a potential savings for implementation of this plan to be
between 11.2 and 28.9 gallons per capita/ per day. Subtracting those numbers from our projected
per capita municipal use, as provided by the Texas Water Development Board and included in
Table 3.3 of 228 gallons per capita/per day, yields a planning goal for Coppell of approximately
217 to 199 gallons per capita/per day.

Water Conservation
and
Drought Contingency Plan
1. INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
Water supply has always been a key issue in the development of Texas. In recent years, the
increasing population and economic development in Region C have led to growing demands for
water. Additional supplies to meet higher demands will be expensive and difficult to develop.
Therefore, it is important that we make efficient use of existing supplies and make them last as
long as possible. This will delay the need for new supplies, minimize the environmental impacts
associated with developing new supplies, and delay the high cost of additional water supply
development.
Recognizing the need for efficient use of existing water supplies, the Texas Commission on
Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has developed guidelines and requirements governing the
development of water conservation and drought contingency plans for public water suppliers.
The City of Coppell has adopted this water conservation and drought contingency plan pursuant
to TCEQ guidelines and requirements.
The objectives of the water conservation plan are:
• To reduce water consumption.
• To reduce the loss and waste of water.
• To identify the level of water reuse.
• To improve efficiency in the use of water.
• To extend the life of current water supplies by reducing the rate of growth in demand.
The objectives of the drought contingency plan are:
• To conserve the available water supply in times of drought and emergency.
• To maintain supplies for domestic water use, sanitation, and fire protection.
• To protect and preserve public health, welfare, and safety.
• To minimize the adverse impacts of water supply shortages.
• To minimize the adverse impacts of emergency water supply conditions.
2. TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY RULES
2.1 Conservation Plans
The TCEQ Rules governing development of water conservation plans for public water suppliers
are contained in Title 30, Part 1, Chapter 288, Subchapter A, Rule 288.2 of the Texas
Administrative Code, which is included in Appendix B. For the purpose of these rules, a water
conservation plan is defined as:
Page 6 of 60
“A strategy or combination of strategies for reducing the volume of water withdrawn from a
water supply source, for reducing the loss or waste of water, for maintaining or improving the
efficiency in the use of water, for increasing the recycling and reuse of water, and for preventing
the pollution of water. A water conservation plan may be a separate document identified as such
or may be contained within another water management document.”
According to TCEQ rules, water conservation plans for public water suppliers must have a
certain minimum content (Section 3), must have additional content for public water suppliers that
are projected to supply 5,000 or more people in the next ten years (Section 4), and may have
additional optional content (Section 5).
2.2. Drought Contingency Plans
The TCEQ Rules governing development of drought contingency plans for public water
suppliers are contained in Title 30, Part 1, Chapter 288, Subchapter B, Rule 288.20 of the Texas
Administrative Code, which is included in Appendix B. For the purpose of these rules, a drought
contingency plan is defined as:
“A strategy or combination of strategies for temporary supply and demand management
responses to temporary and potentially recurring water supply shortages and other water supply
emergencies. A drought contingency plan may be a separate document identified as such or may
be contained within another water management document.”
The drought contingency plan for the City of Coppell is contained in Section 6 of this water
conservation and drought contingency plan.

3.2 Specification of Water Conservation Goals
Table 3.2 shows projected per capita municipal uses obtained from the Texas Water
Development Board (TWDB) and interpolated to match the appropriate years for the 5-year and
10-year goals. The TWDB projections are applicable for a dry year, in which outdoor water use
would be high. Per capita municipal water use in a year with normal or high precipitation during
the summer should be less than projected here.
Table 3.2 2006 Regional Water Plan City Water Demand Projections 2000-2060

Table 3.3 shows historical and projected per capita municipal water use for the City of Coppell.
Water use is shown in units of gallons per capita per day (gpcd). Municipal water use is total use
less wholesale sales to other municipal suppliers less sales to industrial users. Per capita
municipal water use is municipal water use divided by population. The per capita municipal
water use does not include industrial use.
The TWDB projections include the impact of low-flow plumbing fixtures and water conservation
measures that have been in effect since at least 2000 but do not include the effect of water
conservation measures recommended in this plan. Table 3.3 shows the projected per capita
water use after implementation of this water conservation and drought contingency plan.

Page 9 of 60
The City’s water conservation goals include the following:
• Achieve year 2010 per capita municipal water use of 212 gpcd or less, as shown in Table 3.3.
This represents a reduction of 16 gpcd from the TWDB’s projected per capita municipal
water use without low-flow plumbing fixtures and other conservation measures in place since
2000.
• Achieve year 2015 per capita municipal water use of 210 gpcd or less, as shown in Table 3.3.
This represents a reduction of 18 gpcd from the TWDB’s projected per capita municipal
water use without low-flow plumbing fixtures and other conservation measures in place since
2000.
• Implement and maintain a meter replacement program (Section 3.4).
• Keep the level of unaccounted water in the system less than 8 percent in 2010 and subsequent
years (Section 3.5).
• Raise public awareness of water conservation and encourage responsible public behavior
through a public education and information program (Section 3.6).
.
• Decrease outdoor water use by implementing the following program:
Drought resistant landscaping in the medians of City streets.
3.3 Accurate Metering of Treated Water Deliveries
All treated water is metered through the City of Dallas’ Rate of Flow Controller at 1101 Village
Parkway. This device is tested every two months by the City of Dallas and has an accuracy of
± 0.03% avg. The City of Coppell meters all water leaving our pump station through a transient
time meter which is tested twice a year and has an accuracy of ± 1%.
3.4 Metering of Customer and Public Uses and Meter Testing, Repair, and
Replacement
Water usage for all customers of the City of Coppell, including public and governmental users, is
metered.
As part of this water conservation plan, the City of Coppell will implement a meter replacement
program that will replace every residential meter on a 10-year cycle. Initial efforts will focus on
the oldest meters in the system. The City currently replaces about 1100 meters every year.
In addition, residential meters registering any unusual or questionable readings will be replaced
when the irregularity is noticed, regardless of age.
Page 10 of 60
3.5 Determination and Control of Unaccounted Water
Unaccounted water is the difference between treated water obtained from Dallas and metered
sales by Coppell to our customers. Unaccounted water can include several categories:
• Inaccuracies in customer meters (customer meters tend to run more slowly as they age and
under-report actual use);
• Losses due to water main breaks and leaks in the water distribution system.;
• Losses due to flushing of lines;
• Losses due to illegal connections;
• Losses due to fire fighting efforts; and
• Other.
Apparent water losses include water that was actually used but not accounted for, such as
customer meter errors or theft. Accounting for apparent losses increases the city’s utility
revenue but does not reduce water usage. Real losses include leakage and overflows at the water
facilities. Identifying and preventing real losses decreases a utility’s costs and decreases water
usage.
Strategies to address apparent water loss:
Meter replacement as noted in Section 3.4;
Meter all flushing of water lines;
Monitor construction activity to ensure meters are used, especially when new lines are being
flushed prior to being placed in service; and
Work closely with Fire Department to estimate water used in fire fighting activities.
Strategies to address real water loss:
Respond to all identified water leaks within two hours and make repairs within 24 hours and
estimate total unaccounted for water for tracking purposes;
Replace one segment of the water system yearly that has experienced two or more leaks.
As shown in Appendix C, unaccounted water for the City of Coppell has varied from 0.77
percent to 9.85 percent in the last five years. With the measures described in this plan, the City
of Coppell intends to maintain the unaccounted water below 8 percent in 2010 and subsequent
years. If unaccounted water exceeds this goal, the City of Coppell will implement a more
intensive audit to determine the source(s) of water loss and reduce the unaccounted water.
3.6 Continuing Public Education and Information Campaign
The continuing public education and information campaign on water conservation for the City of
Coppell includes the following elements:
Page 11 of 60
• Include inserts on water conservation with water bills at least twice per year. Inserts will
include material developed by City of Coppell staff and material obtained from the TWDB,
the TCEQ, and other sources.
• Encourage local media coverage of water conservation issues and the importance of water
conservation.
• Make the Texas Smartscape CD, water conservation brochures, and other water conservation
materials available to the public at the City of Coppell Utility Department and other public
places.
• Make information on water conservation available online at www.ci.coppell.tx.us and
include links to the Texas Smartscape web site and to information on water conservation on
the TWDB and TCEQ web sites.
Provide information on water conservation on the City’s cable access channel.
3.7 Non-Promotional Water Rate Structure
With the intent of encouraging water conservation and discouraging waste and excessive use of
water, the City of Coppell has adopted an increasing block rate water structure where the unit
price of water increases with increasing water use. Current water rates are shown in Tables 3.4
and 3.5.

Page 13 of 60
4. ADDITIONAL REQUIRED WATER CONSERVATION PLAN CONTENT
The Texas Administrative Code also includes additional requirements for water conservation
plans for public drinking water suppliers that serve a population of 5,000 people or more and/or a
projected population of 5,000 people or more within the next ten years:
• §288.2(2)(A) – Leak Detection, Repair, and Water Loss Accounting – Sections 3.5, 4.1, and
5.5
• §288.2(a)(2)(B) – Record Management System – Section 4.2
• §288.2(a)(2)(C) – Requirement for Water Conservation Plans by Wholesale Customers –
Section 4.3
4.1 Leak Detection and Repair; Pressure Control
Measures to control unaccounted water are part of the routine operations of the City of Coppell.
Meter readers watch for and report signs of illegal connections so they can be addressed quickly.
Crews and personnel look for and report evidence of leaks in the water distribution system.
Maintenance crews respond quickly to repair leaks reported by the public and city personnel.
The City of Coppell spends $550,000 per year to maintain and make repairs to the water
distribution system. The City has 2 (6 full time employees) distribution line maintenance crews.
Areas of the water distribution system in which numerous leaks and line breaks occur are
targeted for replacement as funds are available. In fiscal year 2003-04, the City expended
$350,000 to replace water lines.
To reduce real water losses, the City of Coppell will maintain a proactive water loss program.
As part of this program, the City will implement the following actions:
• Respond to leaks within two hours and repair within 24 hours;
• Replace residential meters showing irregular readings within five working days;
• Control pressure to above the minimum standard-of-service level including fire requirements;
and
• Limit surges in pressure.
4.2 Record Management System
As required by TAC Title 30, Part 1, Chapter 288, Subchapter A, Rule 288.2(a)(2)(B), the record
management system for the City of Coppell records water pumped, water delivered, and water
sold; estimates water losses; and allows for the separation of water sales and uses into residential,
commercial, public/institutional, and industrial categories.
Page 14 of 60
4.3 Requirement for Water Conservation Plans by Wholesale Customers
At this time, the City of Coppell is not a wholesale water provider. After adoption of this plan,
any contract for the wholesale sale of water by the City of Coppell will include a requirement
that the wholesale customer develop and implement a water conservation plan meeting the
requirements of Title30, Part 1, Chapter 288, Subchapter A, Rule 288.2 of the Texas
Administrative Code. This requirement will also extend to each successive wholesale customer
in the resale of the water.

6. DROUGHT CONTINGENCY PLAN
6.1 Declaration of Policy, Purpose, and Intent
In order to conserve the available water supply and protect the integrity of water supply
facilities, with particular regard for domestic water use, sanitation, and fire protection,
and to protect and preserve public health, welfare, and safety and minimize the adverse
impacts of water supply shortage or other water supply emergency conditions, the City of
Coppell hereby adopts the following regulations and restrictions on the delivery and
consumption of water.
Water uses regulated or prohibited under this Daily Water Conservation and Drought
Contingency Plan (the Plan) are considered to be non-essential and continuation of such
uses during times of water shortage or other emergency water supply condition are
deemed to constitute a waste of water which subjects the offender(s) to penalties as
defined in Section H of this Plan.
6.2 Public Education
The City of Coppell will periodically provide the public with information about the Plan,
including information about the conditions under which each stage of the Plan is to be
initiated or terminated and the drought response measures to be implemented in each
stage. The City may provide public education concerning the provisions of the water
conservation to include, but not limited to, the following:
• WebPage
• Water bill inserts
• Direct mail-outs
• Publication in the official City newspaper
• Press releases to local and area media
• City's cable access channel
• Periodic status reports to the City Council on drought response programs, water
emergencies and their results.
6.3 Coordination with Regional Water Planning Groups
The City of Coppell purchases treated water through a wholesale water supply contract
by and between the City of Dallas. If there is a shortage in the water supplied to the City
from any cause, Dallas Water Utilities (DWU) or other supplier may reduce the volume
of treated water that is supplied. The reduction in the water distributed to the City is on a
pro rata basis among all of the wholesale customers of the water supplier. If DWU or
other water supplier imposes a curtailment on water delivered, the City is required to
cooperate by imposing conservation measures.
Page 16 of 60
DWU, the current supplier, or other water supplier has implemented a Drought
Contingency Plan that includes water use restrictions that are applicable to the City of
Coppell. The proposed stages and initiation conditions in this Plan are in accordance
with the provisions established by DWU or other water supplier.
The service area of the City of Coppell is located within the Region C Regional Water
Planning Group. The City of Coppell provided information to Chiang, Patel and Yerby,
Inc. for inclusion in the “2000 Update Long Range Water Supply Plan” for Dallas Water
Utilities.

4. Please describe the water system. Include the number of treatment plants, wells, and
storage tanks, If possible, include a sketch of the system layout.
The City of Coppell Water Distribution System is comprised of two ground storage
reservoirs (GSR), one water pump station, two elevated storage tanks (EST) and the
distribution piping. The GSR’s and the water pump station are located at 1101 Village
Parkway Drive. The EST’s are located at 1001 Northpoint Drive and 520 Southwestern
Blvd. The distribution piping is located within city right of way or easements.
Treated water is purchased from the City of Dallas. The City of Coppell does not have
a water source nor does it provide any full-scale water treatment. The City of Dallas
pumps treated water from its Elm Fork Treatment Plant, locate in Carrollton, Texas
directly into the GSR’s via a rate of flow controller located at the pump station.
The GSR’s have a total storage capacity of 10 million gallons. The Village Parkway
Pump Station was constructed in 1989, along with a 4 million-gallon GSR. A 6
million-gallon GSR was constructed in 1997, along with the expansion of the pump
station.
The pump station pumps treated water from the GSR’s into the distribution system.
The pump station has one 600 HP pump, three 450 HP pumps and two 250 HP pumps.
The pump station has two separate 4160 volt power sources. Each power source is
Page 47 of 60
capable of running all six pumps at the same time. There is also a diesel generator at
the pump station that can operate both 250 HP pumps at the same time. The pump
station has the ability to supply up to 28 MGD. Our current usage, on a max day, is
about 17 MGD. The pump station also has a small chlorination unit that is used to
improve the chloramine residual during the winter months, when water usage is at a
minimum.
The entire city operates on one pressure plane. The distribution system is made up of
over 860,000 feet of pipe ranging in diameter from 2 inches to 30 inches. However,
most of the system is 8” or greater. In addition to the piping, the distribution system
contains about 1950 fire hydrants, 3900 valves and various other appurtenances.
The EST’s are both located on the western edge of the city. The EST at 520
Southwestern Blvd. has a capacity of 1.5 million gallons and was constructed in 1981.
The EST at 1001 Northpoint Drive has a capacity of 2 million gallons and was
constructed in 1999. Both tanks provide storage capacity and pressurize the
distribution system.
IV. WASTEWATER UTILITY SYSTEM
A. Wastewater System Data
1. Design capacity of wastewater treatment plant(s):N/A MGD
2. Is treated effluent used for irrigation on-site N/A, plant washdown N/A, or
chlorination/dechlorination N/A? If yes, approximately _________ gallons per month.
Could this be substituted for potable water new being used in these areas _________?
3. Briefly describe the wastewater system(s) of the area services by the water utility.
Describe how treated wastewater is disposed of. Where applicable, identify treatment
plant(s) with the TCEQ name and number, the operator, owner, and if wastewater is
discharged, the receiving stream. Please provide a sketch or map which located the
plant(s) and discharge or disposal sites.
The City of Coppell Wastewater Collection System is comprised of collection pipes
and two lift stations. The lift stations are located at 1098 E. Sandy Lake Road and 600
Deforest Road. The collection pipes are located within right of way or easements. The
Trinity River Authority Wastewater Treatment Plant (TRA) on Singleton Blvd. in
Grand Prairie treats our wastewater.
The Deforest Road Lift Station currently receives a peak flow a 6.4 MGD and is
operating near capacity. Wastewater is pumped from the Deforest Road Lift Station to
the Sandy Lake Road Lift Station via a 16” force main and gravity piping. The Sandy
Lake Road Lift Station currently receives a peak flow of 3.8 MGD, in addition to the
6.4 MGD from the Deforest Road Lift Station, for a total peak flow of 10.2 MGD. The
Page 48 of 60
wastewater is pumped to the TRA interceptor via a 30” force main. There is also a
small amount of wastewater that feeds directly into the TRA interceptor via a 30”
gravity line. TRA treats approximately 4 MGD for the City of Coppell.
The City of Coppell is currently upgrading the lift stations and force mains. The
improvements should be operational by the fall of 2005. These improvements include a
new Deforest Road Lift Station with a peak flow capacity of 14.16 MGD and a
rehabilitated Sandy Lake Road Lift Station with a peak flow of 4.24 MGD. Once the
improvements are operational, the Deforest Road Lift Station will pump directly into
the TRA interceptor via a new 30” force main and the Sandy Lake Road Lift Station
will pump directly into the TRA interceptor via a new 20” force main. These
improvements will meet the year 2020 projected future peak flows.
The collection system pipe network is made up of over 815,000 feet of pipe ranging in
diameter from 3 inches to 36 inches and about 1975 manholes. Most of the sewer
services are 4” pipe.

VI.CONSERVATION GOALS
Please use the data provided in this survey to establish conservation goals (additional data may
be used).
Page 50 of 60
A. Water conservation goals for municipal utilities are generally established to maintain or
reduce consumption, as measured in:
1. gallons per capita per day used;
2. unaccounted-for water uses;
3. peak-day to average-day ratio; and/or
4. an increase in reuse of recycling or water.
B. TCEQ/TWDB conservation staff assess the reasonableness of water conservation goals
based on whether the applicant addresses the following steps:
1. identification of a water or wastewater problem;
2. completion of the utility profile;
3. selection of goals based on the technical potential to save water as identified in the
utility profile; and
4. performance of a cost-benefit analysis of conservation strategies.
If at least the first three steps have been completed and are summarized in the water
conservation plan, then staff can conclude that there is substantiated basis for the
goals, and that the water conservation plan is integrated into water management.
Therefore, the established conservation goals can be deemed reasonable.

APPENDIX C1
Definitions of Utility Profile Terms
1.Residential sales should include residential sales to residential class customers only.
Industrial sales should include manufacturing and other heavy industry.
Commercial sales should include all retail businesses, offices, hospitals, etc.
Wholesale sales should include water sold to another utility for a resale to the public for
human consumption.
2. Unaccounted-for water is the difference between water diverted or treated (as reported in
Section IIIA1) and water delivered (sold) as reported in Section IIA2. Unaccounted-for
water can result from:
1) inaccurate or incomplete record keeping;
2) meter error;
3) unmetered uses as fire fighting, line flushing, and water for public buildings and water
treatment plants;
4) leaks; and
5) water theft and unauthorized use.
3. The peak-day to average day ratio is calculated by dividing the maximum daily pumpage
(in million gallons per day) by the average daily pumpage. Average daily pumpage is the
total pumpage for the year (as reported in Section IIA1) divided by 365 and expressed in
million gallons per day.
4.Municipal per capita use is defined as total municipal water use dividing by the population
and the 365 days. Total municipal water use is calculated by subtracting the industrial sales
and wholesale sales from the total water diverted or treated (as reported in Section IIA1).
Total municipal water use = total water diverted or treated – industrial sales – wholesale sales
Municipal per capita use (gpcd) = total municipal water use/population/365.
Note: The AWWA considers the municipal per capita use as the most representative figure
to use in long-range water supply and conservation planning.
5.Seasonal water use is the difference between base (winter) daily per capita use and summer
daily per capita use. To calculate the base daily per capita use, average the monthly
diversions for December, January and February and divide this average by 30. Then divide
this figure by the population. To calculate the summer daily per capita use, use the months
of June, July and August.

APPENDIX C2
Estimating the Technical Potential for Reducing Per Capita Water Use
The technical potential for reducing per capita water use is the range in potential water savings
that can be achieved by implementing specific water conservation measures. The bottom of the
range represents the potential savings under a “most likely,” or real-world conservation scenario.
The top of the range represents the potential savings under an “advanced” conservation scenario.
The conservation measures include:
reducing unaccounted-for water uses;
reducing indoor water use due to water-conserving plumbing fixtures;
reducing seasonal water use; and
reducing water use through public education programs.
Guidelines and examples for calculating the technical potential water savings for each of these
conservation measures are given below.
I. Reducing Unaccounted-For Water Uses
The TCEQ considers unaccounted-for water uses of 15% or less as acceptable for
communities serving more than 5,000 people. Smaller, older systems or systems that have a
larger service area may legitimately experience larger losses. Losses above 15% may be an
area of concern, and provide a conservation potential.
The bottom of the range for technical potential savings for unaccounted-for uses is zero. To
calculate the top of the range, see the following example:
Example
Unaccounted-for uses = 19.50% (App C, II.A.3)
Dry-year per capita water use = 250 gpcd (App C, VI.C.3)
Potential for reduction in unaccounted-for use
= (250 gpcd x 19.5%) – (250 gpcd x 15%)
= 48.75 gpcd – 37.5 gpcd
= 11.25 gpcd
Technical Potential Savings Range = 0 to 11.25 gpcd
Page 54 of 60
Computation for Coppell with goal of 8% unaccounted water loss:
Unaccounted-for uses = 9.85
Dry-year per capita water use = 226
Potential for reduction in unaccounted-for use
(226x9.85%) – (226x8%) = 4.2 gpcd
Technical Potential Savings Range = 0 to 4.2 gpcd
II. Reducing Indoor Water Use due to Water-Conserving Plumbing Fixtures
The Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) recently completed a water conservation
study that estimated that the average savings of replacing higher water-use fixtures with more
efficient fixtures mandated by state and federal laws would be 16 gallons per person per day
(10.5 gpcd for toilets and 5.5 gpcd for showerheads). The TWDB used 1995 as their
benchmark for determining the potential average per-capita water savings of an entity. The
1995 population was assumed to have less-efficient water fixtures. No additional water
savings can be expected in the basis of fixture replacement for the post-1995 population. By
1995, retailers were assumed to have sold off their remaining stock of high water use
plumbing fixtures. The annual rate of replacement was estimated to be 2% of the 1995
population.
The TWDB Estimated the water savings due to low-flow plumbing fixture replacements as
follows:
PCS2000 = (((POP1995 x 10%) + G1995-00) / POP2000) x 16 gpcd
PCS2000 = (((26600 x 10%) + 9350 / 35950) x 16 gpcd
GPCD1995 = PCS2000+GPCD2000
231.35 = 5.35 + 226
Where:
GPCD2000 Per person, per day in the Year 2000 (gpcd) 226
G1995-00 Population growth between 1995 an d2000 9350
PCS2000 The entity’s average gpcd savings due to
plumbing code changes (fixture replacement)
between 1995 and 2000 5.35
PCS2010 The entity’s average gpcd savings in 2010
due to plumbing code changes (fixture replacement)
in the previous 10 years
POP1995 July 1995 population estimate 26,600
POP2000 Census 2000 population (cities) or
Year 2000 population estimate 35,950
0902010-
POP2060
Population projections for the entity in the decades
2010 through 2060
Page 55 of 60
The remaining savings was calculated as follows:
PCS2010 = [((POP1995 x 30%) + (POP2010 – POP1995))/ POP2010 x 16 gpcd} – PCSD2000
GPCD2010 = GPCD2000 – PCS2010
(26600 x 30%) + (39700-26600)) / 39700) 16 – 5.35 = 3.15
226 – 3.15 = 222.85
Note: These formulas work through 2040. By 2050, all of the fixture replacements would have
taken place and no additional savings would occur.
(26600 x .35) (39700-26600) / 39700) 16 – 5.35 = 3.68
226 – 4 = 222
III. Reducing Seasonal Water Use
The Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) has calculated seasonal use as a percentage
of average annual per capita use for East Texas (20%), West Texas (25%), and a statewide
average of 22.5% Seasonal water use is calculated by multiplying the average annual per
capita use in gpcd by the appropriate percentage.
The technical potential for reduction in seasonal use is then calculated by multiplying the
seasonal use by 7% for the “most likely” conservation scenario, and by 20% for the
“advanced” scenario. Below is an example calculation:
Example:
Average annual dry-year per capita use = 185 gpcd
Geographical location = West Texas
Seasonal use = (185 gpcd x 25%) = 46.25 gpcd
Potential reduction in seasonal use (Most Likely scenario) = (46.25 x 7%) = 3.24 gpcd
Potential reduction in seasonal use (Advanced scenario) = (46.25 x 20%) = 9.25 gpcd
Technical Potential Savings Range = 3.24 to 9.25 gpcd
Page 56 of 60
Computation for Coppell :
Average annual dry-year per capita use = 228 gpcd
Geographical location = North Texas
Seasonal use = 228 x .225= 51.3 gpcd
Potential reduction in seasonal use (Most Likely scenario) = 3.6 gpcd
Potential reduction in seasonal use (Advanced scenario) = 10.3 gpcd
Technical Potential Savings Range = 3.6 to 10.3 gpcd
IV. Reducing Water Use through Public Education and Water Rates Programs
The technical potential for water conservation from public education and water rates
programs is estimated to be from 2% of the average annual per capita use for the “most
likely” conservation scenario to 5% for the “advanced” scenario, according to the “Water
Conservation Guidebook,” published n 1993 by the American Water Works Association.
Below is an example calculation:
Example:
Average annual per capita use = 185 gpcd
Potential reduction in water use (Most Likely scenario) = (185 x 2%) = 3.70 gpcd
Potential reduction in water use (Advanced scenario) = (185 x 5%) = 9.25 gpcd
Technical Potential Savings Range = 3.7 to 9.25 gpcd
Computation for Coppell :
Average annual per capita use = 228 gpcd
Potential reduction in water use (Most Likely scenario) = (228 x 2%) = 4.5 gpcd
Potential reduction in water use (Advanced scenario) = (185 x 5%) = 11.4 gpcd
Technical Potential Savings Range = 4.8 to 11.4 gpcd
To calculate the total technical potential for reducing municipal per capita water use, simply
add the individual technical potential amounts calculated in items I-IV above. In this case
the total technical potential range equals 6.94 gpcd to 29.75 gpcd.

Summary of Technical Potential Calculations for Coppell:
Conservation Measure Calculation Procedure Result
Reducing unaccounted-for
uses
(Dry year demand) x (Unacc.-for percentage
if more than 15%, minus)
0 to 4.2 gpcd
Reducing indoor water use
due to water-efficient
plumbing
Reduction expected according to TWDB 3 to 3 gpcd
Reducing seasonal water
use
Seasonal use (Avg. use x 22.5%) x 7% and
20%
3.6 to 10.3 gpcd
Reducing water use
through public education
and water rates programs
4.6 to 11.4 gpcd
Total Technical Potential Savings 11.2 to 28.9 gpcd
To calculate the long-run planning goal, subtract these totals from the dry-year water demand.
Example:
Long-run planning goal = (dry year water demand with low-flow fixtures) minus total technical potential)
= 250 gpcd – 6.94 gpcd = 243 gpcd (“most likely” scenario)
= 250 gpcd – 29.75 gpcd = 220 gpcd (“advanced” scenario)
Long-run planning goal for municipal water use = 243 gpcd to 220 gpcd
Computation for Coppell :
Long-run planning goal = (dry year water demand with low-flow fixtures) minus total technical potential)
5-year 217 (“most likely” scenario)
199 (“advanced” scenario)

MEMORANDUM
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., Director of Engineering/Public Works
DATE: April 12, 2005
REF: Consider approval of awarding Bid/Contract #Q-0205-02 to Fox Contractors,
Inc. for the construction of the State Highway 121 Waterline (from North
Coppell Rd. to Denton Tap Rd.) in an amount of $666,079.30, as provided for
in Water and Sewer CIP funds; and authorizing the City Manager to sign.
The S.H. 121 waterline starts at the intersection of Coppell Rd. and S.H. 121 (near the Verizon
complex), and goes north along S.H. 121 and easterly along the bypass to the intersection of S.H.
121 with Denton Tap Rd. This waterline was identified in the Water Distribution System Master
Plan as a deficiency.
Construction of the waterline will provide additional looping of the water system to the
northwest portion of Coppell. An additional benefit is that the waterline will go under S.H. 121
and connect to the west side of the Coppell Greens subdivision. This will provide two sources of
water to the subdivision. Coppell Greens is currently served by a single 12” waterline along
Denton Tap Rd.
Staff recommends approval of the contract with Fox Contractors, Inc. to construct the S.H. 121
Waterline and will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.
