CONTRACT/BID or PROPOSAL
Consider approval of an emergency bid from Craig Olden, Inc. for the installation of erosion control measures at
Andrew Brown Park East, in the amount of $86,400.00, and authorizing the City Manager to sign.
Award of this bid will authorize the staff to enter into an agreement with Craig Olden, Inc. to make some emergency
improvements to the structure of the bridge spanning the Cottonwood Creek between AB Park East and Central. The
rains received earlier this spring have caused erosion to the soil around the footings of this bridge, creating the need
to respond quickly in order to prevent further erosion of these soils.
Funds will be provided by the CRDC maintenance transfer to the General Fund. The contract will be charged to Parks
and Recreation Maintenance line items.
Staff recommends award of this bid

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
Date: August 14, 2007
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Brad Reid, Director of Parks and Recreation
Re: Consider approval of an emergency bid from Craig Olden, Inc. for the installation
of erosion control measures at Andrew Brown Park East, in the amount of $86,400.00,
and authorizing the City Manager to sign.
Background:
Erosion of the Cottonwood Creek banks as a result of the heavy rains during the early
part of the year has exposed the footings of the pedestrian bridge at Andrew Brown Park
East. The trail bridge connecting Andrew Brown Park East with Andrew Brown Park
Central is in danger of having its entire structure exposed with continued rains and
release of stored water at Lake Grapevine. Craig Olden, Inc. was requested to provide an
engineered design, along with cost proposal for installation of a gabion wall and matting
system, which will protect the bridge footings from further erosion.
Craig Olden, Inc. has performed many such projects in the metroplex area, and has done
successful work for the City of Coppell, including the Magnolia Park Spillway
improvements. The quality of their workmanship is considered to be the best in the
gabion business.
Due to the fact that significant erosion has occurred in the past few weeks, exposing
much of the bridge footings, this project has been deemed an emergency and should be
quickly addressed before additional rains further erode the soil holding the bridge in
place. The Coppell Recreation Development Corporation took swift action on August 6
to approve this bid so as to minimize any further erosion.
City Council Action requested:
Approval of a bid from Craig Olden, Inc. for the installation of erosion control measures
at Andrew Brown Park East, in the amount of $86,400.00, and authorizing the City
Manager to sign
Staff Recommendation:
Approval of this item.

HISTORY: This property was zoned a Light Industrial district in 1983. In April
2003, the Planning and Zoning Commission called a public
hearing for a portion of this property to amend the designation on
the Future Land Use Map from Regional Retail and Light
Industrial/Showroom to Freeway Commercial. Also at that time,
the zoning classification of Light Industrial was recommended to
be changed to Highway Commercial to encourage the
development of well-designed retail, commercial and/or office
development, versus big-box tilt-wall industrial buildings along the
frontages of S.H. 121 and Sandy Lake Road. City Council
approved the rezoning and Land Use Map amendment in May of
that year.
In April of this year Council approved a rezoning from Highway
Commercial to PD-HC to allow the development of a college
campus on approximately 10 acres of this 35.8 acre tract of land.
ITEM # 4
PAGE 2 of 2
TRANSPORTATION: State Highway 121 is designated as a freeway; improvements are
not funded at this time.
Sandy Lake Road has recently been improved to a four-lane
divided thoroughfare within right-of-way sufficient for a six-lane
road.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- Light Industrial and undeveloped, LI
South - Light Industrial and mini-warehouses, LI and S-1204-C/LI
East - Light Industrial and undeveloped, LI
West - City of Grapevine, undeveloped
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
Freeway Commercial and Light Industrial/Showroom uses.
DISCUSSION: As noted above, this is a companion request to the rezoning that was
approved earlier this year to allow for the development of a college
campus on a portion of this tract. This replat actually incorporates a 1.9
acre lot that was platted as part of the Freeport North Addition in 1997,
into this 35.8 acre unplatted tract of land. This plat provides needed
easements and fire lanes to serve the college campus.
The only outstanding issue is the amount of right-of-way that will be
needed to be dedicated to allow for the expansion of S.H. 121 adjacent
to this tract. It is staff’s understanding that the applicant has been in
contact with representatives from TxDOT, but no final determination has
been made as to the specific configuration of right-of-way that will be
needed. Therefore a condition of approval will be that this plat shall not
be filed with Dallas County until this right-of-way can be identified and
provided.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of North Lake College, North Campus
Addition, Minor Plat and Replat, subject to the following condition.
1) Prior to filing this plat with Dallas County, final determination shall be
made as to the amount of right-of-way needed for SH 121
improvements and shall be indicated on the plat.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request

484-530-1888 972-488-3882
HISTORY: It appears from DCAD records that the original warehouse and
office buildings were constructed in 1980. In 1996 a site plan and
plat were approved to allow the expansion to the existing
office/warehouse facility which included the construction of a
240,000 square foot warehouse. This approval was subject to
several conditions:
¾ The Board of Adjustment granting a Special Exception
allowing reduction in the amount of parking to be
provided. A 242 parking space variance was granted on
September 12, 1996, and,
¾ Asphalt fire lanes were permitted for a period not to
exceed four years.
The applicant is requesting the retention of the reduction in the
number of parking spaces, but will be bringing all fire lanes up to
current (concrete) paving standards.
ITEM # 5
PAGE 2 of 5
TRANSPORTATION: Bethel Road is under construction to be a 4-lane divided thoroughfare
within 90 feet of right-of-way.
Freeport Parkway is a 4-lane divided thoroughfare built within 90 feet of
right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North – vacant land and office/warehouse; PD-185R-LI and PD-186R7-LI,
South – vacant land and Haverty’s; LI (light Industrial)
East – Hard-8 BBQ and office/warehouses; PD-211-H and LI (light Industrial)
West - US Post Office Bulk Mail Center; LI (light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Coppell Comprehensive Master Plan shows the property as
suitable for light industrial/showroom uses.
DISCUSSION: The purpose of this PD is to allow for the retention and expansion of the
existing facilities as well as the construction of four new office warehouse
buildings. While the new construction is generally in compliance with the
Zoning Ordinance, some existing conditions do not conform to current
ordinances and are best recognized through a PD.
Lot 1R – Existing Office and Office/Warehouse and Expansion Area
This lot encompasses approximately ½ the land area and 60% of the
ultimate square footage of the development. The existing
office/warehouse, cold storage facility and 14,000 square foot office will
be retained. Two future expansion areas are indicated along the
western side of the existing building. The construction of these expansion
areas are not included in the initial phase of development, but sufficient
parking is being provided to serve the ultimate development of this
property.
The site plan also indicates a new driveway onto Bethel Road to access
the development on this lot. The Fire Department expressed concern
with the ability of fire trucks to maneuver the “S” curve portion of this
driveway located just south of Bethel Road. Additional information will
be required from the applicant to demonstrate that this driveway can
accommodate this movement. If it is determined not to be sufficient,
then this driveway will need to be redesigned.
Lot 2R – New Office Warehouse Buildings A, B and C.
Three new buildings are proposed for this lot, ranging in size from 130,250
to 140,000 square feet with a warehouse to office ratio of 95% to 5%.
Building A will be most visible from Bethel Road and per staff’s request,
stone entry features/architectural accents have been added to both
corners of the building adjacent to Bethel Road. Seventy-three parking
ITEM # 5
PAGE 3 of 5
spaces are proposed along the west property line. The applicant has
added seven architecturally accented (with accent paint color and
bumped-out panels) “man-doors” along this elevation to allow access to
this parking as well as to provide the required articulation. Finally, a
screening wall is indicated on the site plan, parallel to Bethel Road, to
obscure the view of the loading area. However, additional detail is
required on the Building Elevation sheet, which specifies the height,
length, design and materials of this screening wall.
Building B will have limited visibility from Bethel Road, and is designed
similar to the other two buildings on this tract, without the additional
articulation along the western façade.
Finally, Building C will be a mirror image of Building B, with the dock-doors
facing internally. Along the east lot line is an existing rail road spur. The
applicant is not sure if they will be utilizing this spur, therefore they have
included “future knock-out panels” in this wall to allow direct access to
this spur. This building is proposed to be located 24 feet from the newly
created common lot line with Lot 1R, which does not provide the 60 foot
yard setback (clear area) which is required for unlimited building area.
Either a higher level of fire resistive construction or a smaller building will
be required.
The common lot line, between this lot (Lot 2R) and the existing facilities
(Lot 1R) will not have perimeter landscaping normally required along all
lot lines. However, it appears that additional landscaping and trees
have been provided elsewhere on this lot to fulfill this requirement.
Lot 3R- Existing Office Building
This lot has been carved out to allow for the retention of the existing
office building and to allow the minimum amount of required parking to
be contained within that lot. However, the placement of the new lot line
is 12.5 feet from the existing south building wall and will impose
additional building code/fire safety requirements when there is no longer
60 feet of clear space between the building and the property line.
In terms of landscaping, the existing configuration of the parking lot does
not conform to current standards in that it is missing required landscape
islands every 15 parking spaces and perimeter landscaping is not being
provided along portions of the southern property line. These site related
deficits can be cured through PD conditions. Similar to Lot 1R, there
appears to be significant overages in other levels of landscaping to
compensate for the lack of perimeter and parking lot landscaping.
Finally, clarification is needed as to the future of the existing historic
grocery store structure (circa 1932) located at the corner of Bethel Road
and Freeport Parkway. Consideration may be given to relocating this
structure from this property to a site in Old Coppell.
ITEM # 5
PAGE 4 of 5
Lot 4R – New Office Warehouse, Building D
A 90,000 square foot building with 50% office and 50% warehouse is
proposed to front on Freeport Parkway. The dock-high loading area will
face internal to the site. This building will be architecturally compatible
with the three other new buildings on the site. However, this lot appears
to be significantly short of both perimeter and non-vehicular
landscaping, which different than other lots, this deficient is not being
compensated for elsewhere within the lot. But, similar to several of the
other properties, given the proposed location of the new lot lines, only 40
foot setback from the north property line is being provided. This is in
conformance with the zoning regulations, but may impose additional
building/fire code conditions as discussed on the other sites.
Consideration may be given to reducing the size of the building to
provide for the 60 foot clear space which also will allow for additional
landscape opportunities.
Revised Tree Survey and Landscape Plans for this project were submitted
late. Although the revised plans were more compliant than the original
submittal, they still do not adhere to all the provisions of the Landscape
Ordinance and will need to be revised prior to council consideration.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of PD-229-LI Minyard Addition (KTR Capital),
subject to the following conditions:
1) The applicant providing additional analysis to address the potential
building/fire code issues when new lot lines are placed less than 60 feet from
existing and proposed buildings (Lots 2R, 3R and 4R).
2) Submittal of Revised Tree Survey and Mitigation Plan in accordance with the
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Revise Landscape Plan as
necessary.
3) Submission of additional data as to the functionality of the “S” curve in the
proposed eastern most driveway to accommodate fire trucks.
4) Submission of elevation details for the proposed screening wall on Building
“A”.
5) Review the locations of the FDC (fire department connections) which need
to be located between 3 to 6 feet from fire lanes, within 50’ of a fire hydrant
and must be detached from the buildings.
6) Relocate the existing Fire Hydrant west of Building D to be within a
landscape island.
7) Provide water as-builts for existing property for reference.
8) The proposed building should not use existing fire pumps.
9) Clarification is needed as to the future of the existing historic grocery store
structure (circa 1932) located at the corner of Bethel Road and Freeport
Parkway.
10) Contact Jeff Curry at 972-888-1330 to discuss electric service requirements.

HISTORY: This property was platted into two lots in 1996 at the time the
240,000 square expansion to the warehouse was built. Various
utility and drainage easements were established at that time. The
St. Louis & Southern Railway easement was also indicted on the
plat for the Minyard Addition, lots 1 and 2.
TRANSPORTATION:
Bethel Road is under construction to be a 4-lane divided
thoroughfare within 90 feet of right-of-way. Freeport Parkway is a

East – Hard-8 BBQ and office/warehouses; PD-211-H and LI (light Industrial)
West - US Post Office Bulk Mail Center; LI (light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Coppell Comprehensive Master Plan shows the property as
suitable for light industrial/showroom uses.
DISCUSSION: This property was originally platted as two lots in the mid-1990’s.
This original plat included various utility easements, a large storm
water retention area in the western portion of the site, and two St.
Louis & Southwestern Railway spur easements. These rail road
spurs extended from the DART R.O.W., which abuts the property
along the south property line, northward through the property to
Bethel Road. The applicant has stated that this easement has
been abandoned, and the spur is now private. A copy of the
separate instrument that abandoned this easement needs to be
submitted.
This property is being proposed to be replatted into four lots with
various mutual access easements/fire lanes to allow for internal
circulation as well as access to abutting streets. These irregularly
shaped lots appear to have been configured to provide the
minimum amount of required parking per lot, but may result in
additional building/fire code requirements as discussed in the PD.
The site plan also indicates construction of new buildings and
parking areas over an existing 15’ T.U. electric easement which
was dedicated in 1997. If this easement still exists, approval from
the electric company will be required. If this easement has since
been abandoned, then a copy of this abandonment instrument
needs to be submitted.
Finally, as discussed in the PD, included in this development are
two new driveways from Bethel Road. While the locations are
acceptable, there appears to be an issue with the configuration
of the eastern most driveway once it enters the property. This
driveway is also a designated fire lane, and the proposed “S”
curve appears to be too tight for fire apparatus and vehicles to
access this property and provide adequate protection.

HISTORY: In February of 1998, Presbyterian Hospital was granted Site Plan
approval on this 14.8 acre parcel (which has since expired) that
allowed two buildings—a 75,000 square foot ambulatory care
facility and a 45,000 square foot medical office. In September of
2004, in conversations regarding an adjacent development, staff
was advised that the hospital use was still envisioned for this
property, but in subsequent conversations we have learned that
the hospital is no longer contemplated here, thus the zoning/use
change before you now.
In October of 2004, Council approved the development of
several one and two story general and medical office buildings
on 7.7 acres of property just east of this request. That property has
been partially developed with those proposed uses, and leases
for occupancy is underway with some buildings now leased up.
TRANSPORTATION: Denton Tap Road is a P6D, six-lane divided thoroughfare (120 feet
of right–of-way). Highland Drive is in the city of Lewisville and has
been developed to Lewisville standards in a 75 foot right-of-way.
State Highway 121 has been developed to freeway standards,
contains one-way service roads, each 33 feet wide, within 450 feet
of right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North –single-family residences/church; city of Lewisville
South –State Highway 121; city of Lewisville
East-developed office/medical buildings; HC, Highway Commercial
West –vacant land; HC, Highway Commercial
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 as amended shows the
property as suitable for regional retail uses.
DISCUSSION: This proposal outlines seven lots on a 14 acre site, and includes a
variety of uses ranging from a Market Street grocery store, a gas
station, a retail strip center and several bank and restaurant pad
sites. In addition, two detention ponds are proposed to address
run-off concerns. Initial development will include Lots 5, 6 and 7
and use of each is described below.
USES
The development will occur in phases, with Phase One to include
a 69,800 square foot grocery store on a 6.9 acre site, a 20,000
square foot retail strip building on a 2.9 acre parcel, and a 2,300
ITEM #7
PAGE 3 of 7
square foot gas station/restaurant on 1.2 acres. As envisioned,
the gas station will double as a convenience store noted as “A
Taste of Market Street”. The station is proposed to have five pump
islands protected by a canopy. The exhibits provided by the
developer did not show the design, material, height, size, lighting,
etc. of the canopy and that needs to be provided no later than
the Commission hearing date. Staff will evaluate the canopy
information at that time. The grocery store is shown to have a
6,700 square foot outdoor dining area in addition to the store
itself. It also has a drive-thru facility on the east side of the
building. In addition, the store is shown to have enhanced entry
paving to assist in off-setting the landscape deficiency which will
be discussed under the “Landscape” heading.
The gas station is a 2,300 square foot building and includes the
“Taste of Market Street” food service. On the east side of the
building, a drive-up lane has been provided to accommodate
drive-thru users picking up food orders. There are at least 5
stacking spaces shown, as required by code.
The retail building in Phase One is proposed to be an “L” shaped,
20,000 square foot structure. At the present time no known leases
have been announced for this addition, although a drive-thru
lane has been provided on the north side of the building. This
would suggest some sort of restaurant, cleaners, etc. use is being
contemplated here. The Zoning Ordinance calls for any retail
building over 5,000 square feet to provide one loading space of
12 by 30 feet. This building does not provide one.
There are two detention ponds on this site to address drainage
concerns and each has a stone retaining wall that matches the
building materials of the structures proposed. Each also has a 42
inch decorative metal fence on top.
All buildings in Phase One have minimum 60 foot setbacks along
Denton Tap and Highland Drive and each building is at least 60
feet away from an adjacent one.
PARKING
Parking for the gas station is shown to be 12. Minimum station
parking is 6 and the additional spaces are provided for walk-in
traffic. The retail building site contains 135 spaces (101 would be
code requirement) but no loading space is shown, as is required
for any retail building exceeding 5,000 square feet. The final
building shown for Phase One is the grocery store. Parking
required of the store itself is 349. Site parking for the store shows
401. However, because the grocery also shows an outdoor dining
area of 6,700 feet, 68 spaces in addition to the 349 would be
required by code. Therefore, the 401 spaces are technically 16
ITEM #7
PAGE 4 of 7
short of requirement. Staff believes 401 spaces for the grocery is
sufficient and would recommend their approval through the PD
zoning process. Taking all proposed uses into consideration the
Plan shows 530 spaces as required and notes that 548 spaces are
being provided in Phase One. The addition of a loading space
for the retail outlet seems relevant, and will be a condition of staff
approval.
LANDSCAPING
Here’s where thing get a bit complicated. Our perimeter
landscaping ordinance requires a minimum of 15 feet of
landscaping along streets (this plan complies) and 10 feet of
landscaping on interior lot lines. That means landscaping of 20
feet (10 feet on each property line) is required between lot lines.
This application has generally taken that into consideration and
although the landscaping is not immediately adjacent to the
interior lines, the detention ponds, tree islands, and landscape
areas serve that purpose, and are allowed to count as perimeter
by code. Therefore, perimeter landscaping complies (primarily on
lot 6) IF the concept shown for lots 1 through 4 is followed in Detail
submittal. We assume that will occur when detailed plans are
submitted for these lots, and is a condition for staff approval.
Phase One lots 5, 6, and 7 are in for Detail PD approval. Lots 1-4
have also provided preliminary landscape data and staff analysis
reflects that compliance with our landscaping ordinance is shown
on these conceptual plans.
Lot 5 is short of non-vehicular open space by 195 feet. In
calculating landscape requirements, the applicant erroneously
figured overall site square footage to be 49, 428 square feet when
it should have been 51,401. However, there is an overage of 974
feet of interior landscaping, so from a staff perspective, Lot 5
complies with our ordinance.
Lot 6 is short of required non-vehicular open space by almost
7,400 square feet (7,361). That figure is arrived at by giving credit
for and counting the concrete paver outdoor dining area of 6700
square feet as “enhanced landscaping”, a policy we have
utilized in the past. This site is proposing 26 trees over ordinance
requirements, and being a PD an exception to the required non-
vehicular landscaping can be granted. The question to be
addressed is if the 26 additional trees compensates for the 7,400
square foot shortage of non-vehicular open space.
Lot 7 is the retail lot and it complies with all elements of the
ordinance except front yard requirements. The ordnance states
50% of landscaping must be in the front yard, and on this site the
applicant is 2,700 square feet short. However, overall this lot is
ITEM #7
PAGE 5 of 7
2,500 square feet over the amount of landscaping required by the
Zoning Ordinance—it’s just in the wrong place! That being the
case, staff can support this retail proposal assuming the loading
issue is resolved.
That said, overall the three sites in for detail approval are almost
4,000 square feet short of required landscaping. However, the
applicant has addressed that issue by providing 37 trees more
than code would require. The decision to be made here is to
determine how comfortable we are trading off required
landscape area for more trees.
One minor comment regarding landscaping: the common and
scientific name of Texas Ash needs to be reversed in the Plant
Table on Sheet L-1.
SIGNAGE
The signage package is in general conformance with our
ordinance requirements. Two sign types are proposed; two multi-
tenant signs of 60 square feet each are shown on Lots 6 and 7.
Each lot is at least two acres in size, so these signs conform to
code relative to size, setback, and material. They do not conform
to the 75 foot minimum property line spacing. The plan also shows
monument signs of 40 square feet each for lot 5 and all
conceptual development sites. Five signs are identified on the
plan. These signs meet size, setback, and material code
requirements, but lots 3 and 4 do not meet the 75 foot
requirement.
Because lots 1-4 are conceptual, and lot dimensions have not
been finalized, it is possible that these signs can be made to
conform to code when detailed plans are submitted. For lots 5, 6,
and 7 a modification to the ordinance is requested and is
reflected in staff conditions.
Attached signage on the gas station is proposed for all four sides.
We can support only the 33 square foot sign shown on the front
(west) side of the station. The other signs are somewhat
superfluous, and will not be seen with build-out of adjacent
buildings. The attached signage for the grocery store and retail
building is appropriate. We support the signage package with
the understanding that all attached signs will conform to code.
BUILDINGS
The three buildings shown for Phase One development are
generally well designed, have somewhat of a uniformity that
conveys a sense of unified development and include building
materials that compliment what has already been built in
ITEM #7
PAGE 6 of 7
Coppell. Floor plans have been requested so we can evaluate
overall code requirements regarding parking, fire code
stipulations, use, and other concerns. A condition of approval will
address that request. The gas station needs work. It is less that
80% masonry as the upper elevations are shown to be EFIS. This
building is somewhat out of sync with the rest of the proposal and
should reflect the same building material as the grocery and retail
building. We propose elimination of the EFIS and addition of the
same materials used on the other structures. We assume that the
vacant parcels will eventually be developed in a like manner and
utilize the same building materials, scale, signage, landscaping
and sense of identity.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request based upon the following
conditions:
1. Provide one loading space on retail lot 7.
2. Approve grocery store lot 6 parking as shown.
3. Detail landscaping for lots 1-4 will closely follow Concept Plan.
4. Approve grocery landscaping with 26 additional trees in lieu of
7,400 square feet of landscape area.
5. Approve landscape shortage on lots 5, 6, 7 of 4,000 square
feet by providing additional 37 trees over code requirement.
6. Approve landscape plans for lots 5, 6, 7 as shown with
modifications listed above.
7. Approve sign locations on lots 5, 6, 7 at this time; reserve
decisions on other lots until detail plans are submitted.
8. Lot 5 gas station attached sign on front of building only.
9. Need floor plans of all building on lots 5, 6, 7.
10. Provide lot 5 canopy plans to include dimensions, materials,
lighting, color, etc.
11. Gas station needs to reflect same building material as other
structures, eliminate vast amounts of EFIS.
12. Provide water to lots 2 and 3.
13. The 8 inch water line along S.H. 121 and Highland was built by
the developer to the east. Engineering is in the process of
creating a pro rata agreement.
14. Reverse the common and scientific name of Texas Ash on
Sheet L-1

HISTORY: This property was platted when Presbyterian Hospital was
contemplated for this site. Now that the hospital is no longer
planned here, the property is being considered for replatting to
accommodate a number of different uses.
TRANSPORTATION: Denton Tap Road is a P6D, six-lane divided thoroughfare (120 feet
of right–of-way). Highland Drive is in the city of Lewisville and has
been developed to Lewisville standards in a 75 foot right-of-way.
State Highway 121 has been developed to freeway standards,
contains one-way service roads, each 33 feet wide, within a 450
foot right-of-way.

HISTORY: In 1989, 115 acres were rezoned from PD-Recreation Center to PD-108 (known
as the Springs of Coppell) for institutional, office, retail, commercial and light
industrial uses. This property was owned by the Baptist Foundation, and their
Concept Plan indicated a proposed university site east of Grapevine Creek. To
the west of Grapevine Creek was a proposed park. The balance of the PD was
envisioned for light industrial/tech uses, with commercial and office buildings
ITEM # 9
PAGE 2 of 7
proposed along Denton Tap Road. In 1995, this PD was amended to allow for
the development of The Summit at the Springs, a 46-lot SF-9 residential
subdivision on approximately 30 acres located roughly 500 feet west of Denton
Tap Road, south of Bethel Road. In 1998, this PD was amended to allow for The
Reserve, a 23-lot residential subdivision on 9.7 acres of land located to the west
of The Summit at the Springs. Recently, on July 10, 2007, a residential
amendment to the PD was approved for 20 acres adjacent to Denton Tap and
east of the Summit at the Springs.
In 1998 a request to rezone a 37-acre tract (which now includes the Service
Center site) from PD-LI and R to PD-SF-9 for 102 single-family lots (to be known as
Westchase) was denied by City Council. This 37-acre tract was subsequently
sold to the City of Coppell for future use. On January 11, 2005, the base zoning
of this area was rezoned to H (Historic), which incorporated specific
development standards and use regulations. On July 12, 2005, PD-108R6-H
(Planned Development-108 Revision 6-Historic), was approved to allow the
development of two medical and office buildings totaling 33,108-square feet
on the south side of Bethel Road, approximately 185 feet east of Coppell Road.
The first of these two medical office buildings has been constructed and is
currently occupied.
TRANSPORTATION: Coppell Road is a two-lane unimproved asphalt roadway within a
variable width right-of-way. This will eventually be improved to a
34’ two-lane concrete street with angled, on-street parking, 17’
depth on both sides, 6’ green space and a 5’ sidewalk.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North – residential; H (Historic)
South – railroad; H (Historic)
East – park/open space; PD-108-H (Planned Development-108-
Historic)
West – vacant; H (Historic)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for a use
allowed in the Historic District (retail, hotel, convention center and
pet bed & breakfast uses are allowed).
DISCUSSION:
Site Plan:
This is an overall conceptual plan request for the entire seven lot site and a
request for detail plan approval for four sites (Lots 2, 3, 4 & 6). The site design is
compatible with the Historic District Design Guidelines and what is envisioned
for Old Coppell. The majority of the buildings are situated close to Coppell
Road with the parking located in the rear. In contrast, the event center is
ITEM # 9
PAGE 3 of 7
setback off Coppell Road, but this provides for a large landscape area in front
and makes the building the focal point, off the main entry.
The first phase, or Lot 3, is proposed as an event center. The parking for this
25,141 sq. ft. building is based on seating (similar to a church or place of
worship), one parking space per three seats. The applicant is proposing to
have 350 as the typical occupancy figure; therefore, 117 parking spaces would
be required for standard operation. A cross parking agreement between each
of these lots is proposed, which will cover any additional spaces needed for
those special events that may have more than 350 guests. Phase Two,
containing Lots 2 & 4, is proposed for a two-story hotel/retail building on each
lot. The hotels are proposed on the second floor of each structure with the first
floor reserved for retail. Parking required for a hotel is one space per bed.
There are 28 total beds proposed; therefore, 28 total spaces are required and
28 are proposed. The total first floor area for both structures is 20,480 square
feet, and each site depicts the required 51 spaces (1 space per 200 square
feet, the standard retail parking ratio). The third phase, or Lot 6, is proposed to
accommodate a 7,800 square foot pet bed & breakfast. Parking for this use is
similar to a daycare use for children. One space is required per 10 children, or
in this case, animals. Therefore, a maximum animal total of 78 would require 8
spaces, as is being provided. The remaining future, retail/restaurant spaces are
showing parking at 1 per 200 square feet of building area, the standard retail
parking ratio. Each of these “future” sites will require detail plan approval prior
to development. A reevaluation of necessary parking for the overall
development and each individual “future” site’s parking needs will be done at
that time.
Landscape Plan:
The current request will grant detail landscape plan approval for the event
center, the pet bed and breakfast and the two hotel/retail buildings. It will
grant an overall conceptual landscape plan approval for the landscape areas,
tree counts, and grants an exception to the 10’ perimeter landscaping required
for each side of the internal lot lines on the entire site. Minor adjustments to the
Landscape Plan can be made in the future for each of the lots not currently
being requested for detail plan approval. These will be required to obtain
detail site plan approval when their plans are finalized and a detail landscape
plan will need to be included as part of that submittal. There were several
concerns that have already been addressed on the landscape plan in previous
meetings, but there are still some outstanding issues (resolved verbally) not
currently depicted on the Landscape Plan. The first of these is the screening of
the City’s Service Center property. This can be done with evergreen screening
(Nellie R Stevens, 7-10 gal., 4’ to 5’ height at time of planting). This will provide
some relief to the noise and other nuisances associated with the service center
use. The applicant has agreed to include a hedge row along this property line
along with the overstory trees already shown. The Landscape Architect will
need to coordinate with the Parks Department for the placement, so as not to
conflict with the existing foliage on the Service Center side. The applicant has
also agreed to change the species of shrubs behind the event center from
Elaeagnus to Nellie R. Stevens, and these need to be labeled as such on the
ITEM # 9
PAGE 4 of 7
Landscape Plan. Each parking row requires a 150 square foot landscape island
and a tree, and where there are double rows, 300 square feet and two trees
are needed. Currently, the square footage is correct but only one tree is
shown. This also needs to be accurately reflected on the Landscape Plan.
Tree Survey:
The tree survey submitted is incomplete and is already partially included within
the Landscape Plan. There are some inconsistencies between the two plans
and the trees documented. After these issues are resolved, the Tree Survey can
be included in the Landscape Plan and it will need to be retitled to
“Landscape Plan/Tree Survey”.
Elevations:
The elevations of the two-story event center (48.5’ in height, measured to the
peek) are similar to plantation style architecture. The predominant material is a
red brick completely covered with mortar and from a distance will look off-
white with a hint of red. White fluted Corinthian columns are proposed,
although the elevations currently show smooth columns. Each elevation of the
building depicts a balcony with white balusters of the same material as the
columns. These are labeled “Worthington balusters” and “Worthington
columns”, a polyurethane synthetic material to resemble either wood or stone
(a sample will be brought to the meeting). Staff is still unclear as to which
natural material this is supposed to represent. Each elevation shows faux-
multipaned vinyl windows, and these will need to be revised to show external
mullions as outlined in the Old Coppell Design Guidelines.
The elevations of the two two-story retail/hotel buildings (41.5 feet in height,
measured to the peek) have a traditional storefront design, but do not have
much uniformity in materials or style of architecture. The elevations of each
individual section have been broken out with the colors and materials listed for
each. Staff is recommending that some of the materials be replaced with the
predominant “Town Square” brick shown on the buildings, and that each
section be constructed of one primary material with only accents being
different (not the first floor of one material with the second floor of another).
Some of the architectural detailing and fixtures should be changed to achieve
some uniformity (i.e. the sign lighting changed to match the style of sconces
used, the columns shown should match each other, the balusters and railing on
each balcony should match, etc…) The signage areas and awnings shown are
compatible with the architecture of each storefront and are consistent with the
Design Guidelines for the H District. The second floor shows faux-multipaned
vinyl windows, and these will need to be revised to show external mullions as
outlined in the guidelines. A compromise to this requirement might be only
depicting these on the front elevations. The applicant has agreed to remove
any shutters depicted that don’t actually “fit the window” as required in the
Historic District (two sets are still depicted). Per the applicant, the balusters for
the hotel balconies are proposed to be constructed of black wrought Iron, not
the fiberglass indicated on the elevations. This will need to be labeled correctly
on the black and white elevations. Although still depicted on the elevations,
there are not any quoins proposed and these will need to be removed. All in
ITEM # 9
PAGE 5 of 7
all, the elevations of the retail/hotel building need some revisions to the
materials and architectural style, but staff is willing to work with the applicant
and architect to make this product more uniform in both respects.
The pet bed and breakfast (37.5’ in height, measured to the peek) is consistent
with the design guidelines. The materials are predominantly brick with
scalloped siding in the gables and scalloped shingle on the roof. The materials
of the entrance are not labeled and are not known to staff. This will need to be
addressed at the meeting.
The Miscellaneous Items:
The elevations for the majority of the accessory structures are included on the
miscellaneous detail sheet page 7, although all are shown incorrectly. This
shows the sign tower, gazebo, brick fence, light pole and dumpster enclosure.
According to the applicant, the gazebo will also include “Town Square” brick
and a cast stone sign along the bottom reading “The Texas Belle” not currently
depicted. Staff has spoken with the applicant and understands that the sign
tower will be scaled down substantially and the materials will be shown
correctly. Detached signage is not allowed in the H District, but staff feels that
a revised sign tower and gazebo will add to the site, not detract from it, once
all the adjustments are made. The 6’ wall around the event center is shown,
but the applicant has agreed to include more details with respect to its design.
The lighting is not consistent with the Design Guidelines and will be revised to
show the typical street light for the district. The dumpster enclosure will need to
be revised to depict “Town Square” brick, not the split face block currently
shown. The details for the water fountain, storage building and electrical court
are not shown. These will need to be submitted to the Planning Department for
review and administrative amendment to the Planned Development prior to
obtaining a building permit for these.
In conclusion, the overall development is what was envisioned for the area.
Although there are numerous items that have yet to be addressed, staff does
not feel that these are major obstacles and is willing to work with the applicant
to help address these.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of PD-108R8-H, subject to the following conditions:
1. Revise elevations of the event center to show Portland Cement Stucco
in place of EFIS, and accurately label the window surrounds (cast stone
not being proposed), relabel the “vinyl windows” to “vinyl windows with
external mullions”, and label the decorative metal railing at the front
and rear of the building.
2. Revise the elevations of the retail/hotel buildings to show more
uniformity in architectural style and materials and correctly label all
materials and colors to be used on black and white elevations (wrought
iron in place of fiberglass balusters, remove quoins where not wanted,
remove shutters that don’t fit the window, label garage door materials,
etc…).

HISTORY: In 1989, 115 acres were rezoned from PD-Recreation Center to PD-108 (known
as the Springs of Coppell) for institutional, office, retail, commercial and light
industrial uses. This property was owned by the Baptist Foundation, and their
Concept Plan indicated a proposed university site east of Grapevine Creek. To
the west of Grapevine Creek was a proposed park. The balance of the PD was
envisioned for light industrial/tech uses, with commercial and office buildings
proposed along Denton Tap Road. In 1995, this PD was amended to allow for
the development of The Summit at the Springs, a 46-lot SF-9 residential
subdivision on approximately 30 acres located roughly 500 feet west of Denton
Tap Road, south of Bethel Road. In 1998, this PD was amended to allow for The
Reserve, a 23-lot residential subdivision on 9.7 acres of land located to the west
of The Summit at the Springs. Recently, on July 10, 2007, a residential
amendment to the PD was approved for 20 acres adjacent to Denton Tap and
east of the Summit at the Springs.
In 1998 a request to rezone a 37-acre tract (which now includes the Service
Center site) from PD-LI and R to PD-SF-9 for 102 single-family lots (to be known as
ITEM # 10
PAGE 2 of 3
Westchase) was denied by City Council. This 37-acre tract was subsequently
sold to the City of Coppell for future use. On January 11, 2005, the base zoning
of this area was rezoned to H (Historic), which incorporated specific
development standards and use regulations. On July 12, 2005, PD-108R6-H
(Planned Development-108 Revision 6-Historic), was approved to allow the
development of two medical and office buildings totaling 33,108-square feet
on the south side of Bethel Road, approximately 185 feet east of Coppell Road.
The first of these two medical office buildings has been constructed and is
currently occupied.
TRANSPORTATION: Coppell Road is a two-lane unimproved asphalt roadway within a
variable width right-of-way. This will eventually be improved to a
34’ two-lane concrete street with angled, on-street parking, 17’
depth on both sides, 6’ green space and a 5’ sidewalk.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North – residential; H (Historic)
South – railroad; H (Historic)
East – park/open space; PD-108-H (Planned Development-108-
Historic)
West – vacant; H (Historic)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for a use
allowed in the Historic District (retail, hotel, convention center and
pet bed & breakfast uses are allowed).
DISCUSSION:
This is the preliminary plat proposal for the Villages at Old Coppell. The purpose
of this plat is to determine the overall lot layout and evaluate the preliminary
utility and drainage plans. The applicant is proposing to dedicate
approximately 15’ of right-of-way along Coppell Road for eventual
improvements to this roadway. The existing drive leading to the Service Center
is being relocated to the south and some of the utilities rerouted. Replatting of
the Service Center property will be required once these lots are submitted for
final platting/replatting.
A 24’ fire lane, mutual access and utility easement is proposed throughout, and
will provide mutual access internal to this development and connect in with the
eventual fire lane on the north side serving the Old Town Medical Center. The
proposed lot lines that follow the parking spaces required for each of the uses
are not ideal but seem to work. Staff is also requesting the applicant to provide
a cross parking agreement. All and all, the preliminary plat has done what it is
supposed to do, flush out the major issues.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of the Villages at Old Coppell Preliminary Plat subject to
the following conditions:
1. Contact Larry Redick at 972-323-8917 to discuss electric service
requirements.

CONTRACT/BID or PROPOSAL
Consider approval of a City of Coppell Public Safety Radio System 800 MHz Trunked Analog Simulcast System upgrade
at an approximate cost of $544,752.00; and authorizing the City Manager to sign.
In order to provide better radio service to the City of Coppell it is requested that we participate in a radio system
upgrade with Lewisville, Flower Mound and Lake Cities. Upgrading the system which has been used for the past
twenty years will provide redundancy (two radio towers verses one), improved utilization of frequency bandwidth and
improved radio reception for Coppell emergency services.
Funds have been budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2007-08 Budget for 1/2 of this contract. The remainder will be budgeted
in the FY 2008-09 Budget. This is an item that falls under E911 funding.
Staff recommends approval.
)Radio Upgrade
THE-CITY-OF
COPPELL
Date: 02-20-2007.
To: Roy Osborne, Chief of Police; Jennifer Miller, Director of Finance,
From: Derrick Watson, Lieutenant. ilW3 9 1
Subject: Funding for Radio System Improvement.
On December 4, 2006 I attended a briefing conducted by Deputy Chief Kerbow at the Lewisville
Police Department. Chief Kerbow conducted the informational briefing after City Management
from Lewisville, Coppell, Flower Mound and the Lake Cities met and discussed upgrading the
current radio system. I have attached a copy of the "Executive Overview", radio coverage
diagrams and estimated associated costs that were presented by Chief Kerbow. Lewisville PD is
requesting that a decision be made as to how Coppell will participate in the funding of an
upgraded radio system.
In short Lewisville, Coppell, Flower Mound, Highland Village, Lake Cities Fire and Lake Dallas
Police have all been operating off the same Motorola Analog 800MHz radio system for the past
20 years. With multiple agencies participating in the funding of a radio system there is an
economy in funding that occurs as each agency is not tied to obtaining their own radio
frequencies and building their own radio towers. Multiple agency participation also assists with
interoperability issues as we all are using the same equipment and are able to communicate on
multiple radio frequencies with each other.
A convergence of events has placed us in the position of having to upgrade the current system.
- The current system is over twenty years old and the radios are obsolete and no longer
manufactured. This fact has become apparent as we go through the current mandated frequency
migration and we find ourselves replacing mobile and portable radios. Parts are increasingly
difficult to obtain and at some point the system will not be supported.
- The system serves a population and geography that is many times larger than the one
served when first installed. There are known locations in Coppell, Flower Mound and Lewisville
where radio reception is poor and/or non-existent.
- The recognized risk of losing the one site we have for radio communications and the
potential public safety catastrophe.
Based upon coverage studies, price estimates for digital verses analog radio systems and the age
of the current system a decision was made to upgrade the current Motorola SMARTNETII
analog system.
Striving for Excellence
What I'm asking for is guidance on how best to proceed for the upcoming budget process.
Coppell's estimated cost for participating in the upgrade (% figured by number of units currently
assigned to Coppell on the radio system) are estimated at $528,834 for one year; or $272,376
over two years; etc. (please see attached chart). Point of Contact for estimated costs is Cpt. Joni
Eddy and Deputy Chief William (Russ) Kerbow Work Phone # (972) 219-3600.
I am aware that the E-911 account contains approximately $903,000 and that purchasing and
upgrading communications equipment falls under the aegis of that account. I am also aware that
we have many monthly outgoing expenditures for radio maintenance, phase I1 wireless phone
compliance, radio replacement, radio inventory expansion, air card monthly fees etc. I would
sincerely appreciate your input on the front end of this process.
Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Striving for Excellence
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
This study is about the 800 MHz trunking radio system that is operated by the
City of Lewisville and is used by all of the city government departments and
divisions in the following cities:
COPPELL
HIGHLAND VILLAGE
FLOWER MOUND
LAKE DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT
LAKE CI-TIES FIRE DEPARTMENT
The purpose of this study is to ensure that all of the radio comrnunications needs
of the above cities are currently being met and that they will continue to be met in
the future. In addition, the financial costs of operating the system and keeping it
running in a manner to serve the needs of these communities in the present,
near term future, and long term future will be also be analyzed.
The current system is a Motorola SMARTNETll 800 MHz trunking radio system
that consists of a single site multi-channel radio repeater system and controller
located just north of Vista Ridge Mall in the southern part of Lewisville. The
system consists of 9 channels, 2 of which are licensed to the City of Coppell, and
the remaining 7 of them are licensed to the City of Lewisville. There are
approximately 1,175 radio subscriber units (dispatch transceivers, mobile units,
and portable walkie-talkie units) from the above cities using the system.
Some of the equipment is over 20 years old and requires immediate replacement
if the system is to remain reliable. This system is needed by the police and fire
departments for their emergency communications, and cannot be down during
any emergency. All city services will be greatly affected in a negative way if
there is a failure of this system.
This study has looked at all of the equipment that is available to add or replace
that will keep this system in top-notch shape for performance and reliability..
One of the recommendations is that the system be changed from a single site
system, to a fully redundant, split-site simulcast system. If a disaster strikes the
one site, the second radio site will be able to keep the system operational. In
addition, there are many parts of the jurisdictions of the associated agencies that
currently have poor or no coverage, and the new system has been designed t~o
correct this coverage issue for all of the agencies and departments.
INTRODUCTION
The 800 MHz trunking radio system operated by the City of Lewisville is a
Motorola SMARTNETII system. There are 9 radio channels, 2 of which are
licensed from the Federal Communications Commission to the City of Coppell,
and 7 of which are licensed to the City of Lewisville.
The following cities and agencies use this system for their day-to-day radio
communications and their emergency communications.
LEWlSVlLLE
COPPELL
HIGHLAND VILLAGE
FLOWER MOUND
LAKE DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT
LAKE CITIES FIRE DEPARTMENT
Since this system is such an integral part of the operations of the departments
and divisions in these municipalities, it is imperative that this system be in good
working order at all times.
All 9 radio base stations are located at the large radio tower just north of Vista
Ridge Mall in the southern part of Lewisville. The radio coverage is good far the
most part for the users of the system, but there are areas in the jurisdictions of
the users that do require better coverage. This study has looked at these
requirements and is recommending a change in the system that will provide the
following upgrades:
COVERAGE
RELIABILITY
FEATURES
By looking at these items today, the users of this system will have a long time of
reliable operation before the system needs upgrading or replacing.
CURRENT SYSTEM
The current system consists of 2 channels that are licensed to the City of Coppell
(KNJU844), 1 channel from the City of Lewisville (WPFW758), and 6 channels
from the City of Lewisville (KNGK472).
The radio controller is a Motorola 6809 SMARTNETll controller that is over 20
years old. The 7 Lewisville supplied base stations are all Motorola Quantar 100
watt base stations. The 2 Coppell supplied base stations are Motorola MSF5000
base stations that are 20 years old.
Lewisville Police and Fire operates via a direct wireline controlled dispatch
system that does have TI connectivity between the trunking controller and the
dispatch controller. All of the other agencies and divisions use a radio control
base station to communicate between their dispatch points and the mobile units.
There are over 1 ,I 75 subscriber units using the system. In addition, the radio
system operated by Carrollton that has Carrollton, Addison, and Farmers Branch
uses the Lewisville system as its backup system. Likewise, Denton City ancl
Denton County each use this system as their backup system too. Finally,
Lewisville units are allowed to use their units on these same systems for the!
backup of the Lewisville system.
Because all of the radio transmissions do go through the radio repeaters at the
Rockbrook Road base station repeater site, all of the units must be able to
transmit to and receive from this site. There are coverage issues where unilts
cannot reach the repeaters near Lake Lewisville, inside of buildings, and in the
areas that are fairly far away from this one tower.
The current system is on a shared tenant commercial radio tower that costs
approximately $4,000.00 per month to occupy space on the tower. In addition,
since all of the transmissions do go through this site, the loss of this one site will
seriously affect the capabilities of the radio users to communicate.
The system does operate in the analog mode, meaning that anybody with a
scanner that is capable of receiving 800 MHz channels can eavesdrop on 1::he
conversations.
The system does have a maintenance contract with the local Motorola Service
Station, DFW Comniunications, and they have given excellerlt service
performance since the equipment was installed.
NEW SYSTEM PROPOSAL
In order to have a more reliable and maintainable system, the City of Lewisville
did invite Motorola to quote an updated system so that there will be good
communications for the agencies for now and into the future. Because of the
existing subscriber units, and the required interoperability with all of the
surrounding cities in the DFW Metroplex, only the Motorola SMARTNETll system
can be used.
Motorola originally did quote a 100% digital system that was using the latest
technology available, but the price tag was over $1 5,000,000 to implement such
a system.
In order to get the latest technology, stay compatible with the subscriber units,
and provide interoperability with tlie neighboring communities, an upgraded
analog system was asked by Lewisville to be quoted by Motorola. The pricirug
came in at a much more reasonable level, and the infrastructure will be
compatible for a digital upgrade into the future.
In order to reduce recurring costs, the new system will have the prime contrc~l site
at the new, Kealy Road 320 foot microwave tower that is located near the
intersection of Kealy Road and Sewage Treatment Plant Road. A second site
will be constructed at the 400 plus foot Denton County tower just outside of
Muriel State Park on Lake Grapevine. The two-site combination will operate in
the simulcast mode, which means that both sites operate in a synchronous
frequency and modulation mode with each other. The combination of both sites
will give much better radio coverage in the different jurisdictions, and the systems
will have full redundancy to greatly increase the reliability.
The added equipment will require the purchase of new antennas, base stations,
controllers, and all of the other peripheral equipment to allow the new system to
be placed into service and not discontinue operations from the old system cluring
the transition.
The new system does use the same technology of equipment that other
surrounding agencies are using, and this new system can be expanded in the
future to combine with other agencies so that everyone has access to more
channels.
The coverage studies performed by Motorola, Ira Wiesenfeld & Associates, and
the Lewisville IT department all predict that these 2 new sites will greatly
enhance the required coverage of the jurisdictions involved with this systern.
All of the equipment is currently available and Lewisville should move forward on
these plans.

SUMMARY
The 800 MHz Trunking Radio System operated by the City of Lewisville does
need to be upgraded. The new analog radio simulcast system that Motorola has
proposed does meet the requirements of the users of the system and is 100%
compatible with the mobile and portable radios already being used by the current
users.
The recurring charges for the site are reduced, and the maintenance of the
equipment should be lower since it is newer.
Finally, the required coverage of the users will be met and this new system will
make it much safer for the emergency responders in all of the cities because the
dispatcher will always be in contact with the elements in the field.
