Approval of this request authorizes the design phase of the project to begin. The adopted architectural design will be subject to City of Coppell building construction process which includes; Development Review Committee DRC, Planning & Zoning P&Z, and City Council approval before construction is permitted to begin. This project has been identified in the 5-year planning process and adopted in the current budget. The fire department has outgrown existing facilities causing vehicles to back into storage bays designed for drive through; increasing the possibility of injury and accidents. Additionally, sensitive equipment and supplies currently stored in apparatus require in-door storage to prevent climate damage. Preliminary design features include a 70'x70' pre-engineered metal storage building, (4) overhead roll-up apparatus doors, brick veneer and elevations to match existing Fire Station and City of Coppell standards. Funds are available in the Fire CIP account for this contract. Staff recommends approval.

As you have noticed I have not been in attendance of the last two Coppell Parks and Recreation Board meetings.I know that I am probably in the process of receiving my annual "one more miss and your out"reminder,so I will help save the postage. Effective today i will be resigning from the board due to a relocation to South Austin.The reason for the delay in the announcement was that there was a slight chance that I would remain in Coppell. I have thoroughly enjoyed my tenure as a member of the board and felt as though I was involved with various strategies,as it was not my intention to simply be a passenger on the bus. If 1 can offer two recommendations that I have previously stated to you and city council,I would hope that these would be considered in the future. I.There are several negative opinions regarding what needs to be changed for various youth activities.The countless hours of volunteer efforts are challenged with an attempt to be undermined by various board members from time to time.This is nothing different from any form of corporate environment issue that may also occur.However,the frustration comes when an individual makes these profound recommendations when having no history or personal experience with the decision that is to be made.So for a group of 10 "squeaky wheels",we are willing to change the entire process that has worked well for the over 5,000 participants.We have to move these board meetings forward and get beyond the point of no return! 2.Does the city want quality or quantity?In my history of being a board member,it appears that the individuals that bring the most ideas and structure,have been the ones that have always received the notices about missing two meetings within a one year time frame.Yet, several of those that can attend week in and week out may be some of the individuals that never have an opinion or knowledge ofthe topic of discussions.I hope that there can be a conducive suggestion for a more effective manner of allowing strong board members to remain in some form of capacity in the future. Good luck,and thanks for allowing me to be a part of the city, David Castillo (972)207-5131 More new features than ever.Check out the new AOL Mail! file://C:\Documents and Settings\kbowling\Local Settings\Temp\XPgrpwise\47B2A669Cit...2/13/2008 AGENDA REQUEST FORM DATE: February 26, 2008 ITEM #: 15 MAYOR AND COUNCIL REPORTS A.
