Re: JULY, 1986 MONTHLY REPORT
Dear Mayor & Council:
P, 0. Box 478
Coppell, Texas 75019
214 - 462 - 0022
During the month of July, 1986, the Coppell Economic & Business Development
Board was involved in the following activities:
1) The Board convened in a work session on July 15, 1986. A copy of
the Agenda and minutes of that meeting are attached for your
review.
2) Board Chairman, John D. Bailey, attended the Metrocrest Chamber of
Commerce Board of Directors meeting on July 23, 1986.
3) Board Chairman, John D. Bailey, attended the Metrocrest Chamber of
Commerce Economic Development Committee meeting on July 28, 1986.
At that meeting the following items of interest to Coppell were
discussed:
a) Denton County is to vote on the establishment of an industrial
development corporation. The committee voiced support for
the establishment of the industrial corporation. Although,
very little of Coppell is in Denton County, I feel that the
establishment of this industrial corporation will aid in
enticing industry to locate in the Metrocrest.
b) The Metrocrest Chamber has started a retention program which
includes publishing newspaper articles in the Metrocrest News
on members of the Chamber. Each City will be featured monthly.
Our first article covering Coppell will be on the Oliver Taylor
Company.

c) Dick Erikson gave us a report on relocations into the Metroc-
rest. Carrollton has received several large relocations in
the last month. It appears that the City of Coppell has not
been a contender on any of these relocations due to the lack
of speculative office warehouse space in our City.
If you have any questions about our activities during the month of July,
1986, please feel free to call me at 869-1880.
Sincerely,
COPPELL ECONOMIC & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT BOARD
