Commission. Ms. Bowman stated this structure was built many
years ago as a single-family structure; however, Mrs. Onstott
has purchased the property and renovated it to accommodate an
office and floral shop. This item must come before the

City of Coppell. Ms. Bowman stated that staff has no objection
to this use as long as it is restricted to an office and floral
shop when approved. The Historic Commission has provided a list
of several recommended uses for this area, which have been
passed out to all Commissioners.
