Reference: Review of Alarm Fee Structure
Background:
The City of Coppell has not changed its alarm permit fees in several years. Currently the City’s
residential alarm fee is $20 for the initial permit and a $10 annual renewal fee. The City’s
commercial alarm fee is also $20 for the initial alarm permit and a $10 annual renewal fee.
We contacted 31 cities in Dallas, Denton, and Tarrant counties and obtained their current alarm
fee structure. Coppell is currently among the lowest in alarm fees. Residential alarms in other
cities ranged from one at $5 annual in one city to several cities at $50 per year. The residential
renewal fees were similar amounts. Commercial alarms ranged from $5 a year to $100 a year.
The commercial annual renewals were similar amounts. Six of the cities had reduced or no fees
for senior citizens.
The average for residential alarm permit was around $35 initially with a $35 annual renewal. The
average commercial alarm permit was around $50 initially with a $50 annual renewal fee. I have
attached a copy of the survey for your review.
Staff Recommendation:
It is our recommendation to increase our fees to $35 initially with a $35 annual renewal for
residential alarms and $50 initial with a $50 annual renewal fee for commercial alarms.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this document is to set forth specific investment policy and strategy guidelines for
the City of Coppell in order to achieve the goals of safety, liquidity, yield, and public trust for all
investment activity. The City Council of the City of Coppell shall review its investment strategies
and policy not less than annually. This policy serves to satisfy the statutory requirement of
Chapter 2256, Texas Government Code as amended, to define, adopt and review a formal
investment strategy and policy.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The City of Coppell maintains portfolios utilizing four specific investment strategy considerations
designed to address the unique characteristics of the fund groups represented in the portfolios:
A. Investment strategies for operating funds and commingled pools containing
operating funds have as their primary objective to assure that anticipated cash flows
are matched with adequate investment liquidity. The secondary objective is to
create a portfolio structure which will experience minimal volatility during
economic cycles. This may be accomplished by purchasing high quality, short-to-
medium-term securities which will complement each other in a laddered or barbell
maturity structure. The dollar weighted average maturity of 365 days or less will
be calculated using the stated final maturity date of each security.
B. Investment strategies for debt service funds shall have as the primary objective the
assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt service obligation on
the required payment date. Securities purchased shall not have a stated final
maturity date that exceeds the debt service payment date.
C. Investment strategies for debt service reserve funds shall have as the primary
objective the ability to generate a dependable revenue stream to the appropriate
debt service fund from securities with a low degree of volatility. Securities should
be of high quality and, except as may be required by the bond ordinance specific to
an individual issue, of short to intermediate-term maturities. Volatility shall be
further controlled through maturity and quality range, without paying premium, if
at all possible. Such securities will tend to hold their value during economic
cycles.
D. Investment strategies for special projects or special purpose fund portfolios will
have as their primary objective to assure that anticipated cash flows are matched
with adequate investment liquidity. These portfolios should include at least 10% in
highly liquid securities to allow for flexibility and unanticipated project outlays.
The stated final maturity dates of securities held should not exceed the estimated
project completion date.
2
INVESTMENT POLICY
I. SCOPE
This investment policy applies to all financial assets of the City of Coppell. These funds are
accounted for in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) and include:
* General Fund
* Special Revenue Funds
* Debt Service Funds
* Capital Projects Funds
* Proprietary Funds
* Trust and Agency Funds
* Component Units
II. OBJECTIVES
The City of Coppell shall manage and invest its cash with four objectives, listed in order of
priority: Safety, Liquidity, Yield, and Public Trust. The safety of the principal invested always
remains the primary objective. All investments shall be designed and managed in a manner
responsive to the public trust and consistent with State and Local law.
The City shall maintain a comprehensive cash management program that includes collection of
accounts receivable, vendor payment in accordance with invoice terms, and prudent investment of
available cash. Cash management is defined as the process of managing monies in order to insure
maximum cash availability and maximum yield on short-term investment of pooled idle cash.
Safety
The primary objective of the City's investment activity is the preservation of capital in the overall
portfolio. Each investment transaction shall be conducted in a manner to avoid capital losses,
whether they are from securities default or erosion of market value.
Liquidity
The City's investment portfolio shall be structured such that the City is able to meet all obligations
in a timely manner. This shall be achieved by matching investment maturities with forecasted cash
flow requirements and by investing in securities with active secondary markets.
3
Yield
The City's cash management portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly exceeding
the average rate of return on three-month U.S. Treasury Bills. The investment program shall seek
to augment returns above this threshold consistent with risk limitations identified herein and
prudent investment polices.
Public Trust
All participants in the City's investment process shall seek to act responsibly as custodians of the
public trust. Investment officials shall avoid any transaction that might impair public confidence in
the City's ability to govern effectively.
III. RESPONSIBILITY AND CONTROL
Investment Committee
An Investment Committee, consisting of the City Manager, Deputy City Manager, the Director of
Finance, and Assistant Director of Finance, shall meet at least quarterly to determine operational
strategies and to monitor results. The Investment Committee shall include in its deliberation such
topics as: performance reports, economic outlook, portfolio diversification, maturity structure,
potential risk to the City's funds, authorized brokers and dealers, annually adopt the qualified
bidders list, and the target rate of return on the investment portfolio.
Delegation of Authority and Training
Authority to manage the City's investment program is derived from a resolution of the City
Council. The Director of Finance, the Assistant Finance Director and the Chief Accountant are
designated as the investment officers of the City and are responsible for investment decisions and
activities. The Director of Finance shall establish written procedures for the operation of the
investment program, consistent with this investment policy. The investment officers shall attend at
least one ten (10) hour training session from an independent source approved by the governing
body relating to the officer's responsibility under the Act within 12 months after assuming duties.
Additionally, once every two years, ten (10) hours of instruction must be obtained from an
independent source. Sources of authorized independent training are those sponsored by:
Government Finance Officers Association (G.F.O.A.)
Government Finance Officers Association of Texas (G.F.O.A.T.)
Government Treasurers Organization of Texas (G.T.O.T.)
University of North Texas - Center for Public Management
Texas Tech - Center for Professional Development
4
Internal Controls
The Director of Finance is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control
structure designed to ensure that the assets of the entity are protected from loss, theft or misuse.
The internal control structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that these
objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of a control
should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation costs and benefits require
estimates and judgements by management.
Accordingly, the Director of Finance shall establish a process for annual independent review by an
external auditor to assure compliance with policies and procedures. The internal controls shall
address the following points:
A. Control of collusion.
B. Separation of transaction authority from accounting and record keeping.
C. Custodial safekeeping.
D. Avoidance of physical delivery securities.
E. Clear delegation of authority to subordinate staff members.
F. Written confirmation for telephone (voice) transactions for investments and wire
transfers.
G. Development of a wire transfer agreement with the depository bank or third party
custodian.
Prudence
The standard of prudence to be applied by the investment officer shall be the "prudent investor"
rule, which states: "Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then
prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of
their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their
capital as well as the probable income to be derived." In determining whether an investment
officer has exercised prudence with respect to an investment decision, the determination shall be
made taking into consideration:
A. The investment of all funds, or funds under the City's control, over which the
officer had responsibility rather than a consideration as to the prudence of a single
investment.
B. Whether the investment decision was consistent with the written investment policy
of the City.
The investment officer, acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence,
shall not be held personally responsible for a specific security's credit risk or market price
changes, providing that these deviations are reported immediately and that appropriate action is
taken to control adverse developments.
5
Ethics and Conflicts of Interest
City staff involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could
conflict with the proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair the ability to
make impartial investment decisions. City staff shall disclose to the City Manager any material
financial interests in financial institutions that conduct business with the City and they shall further
disclose positions that could be related to the performance of the City's portfolio. City staff shall
subordinate their personal financial transactions to those of the City, particularly with regard to
timing of purchases and sales.
An investment officer of the City who has a personal business relationship with an organization
seeking to sell an investment to the City shall file a statement disclosing that personal business
interest. An investment officer who is related within the second degree by affinity or
consanguinity to an individual seeking to sell an investment to the City shall file a statement
disclosing that relationship. A statement required under this subsection must be filed with the
Texas Ethics Commission and the governing body of the entity.
IV. REPORTING
Quarterly Reporting
The Director of Finance shall submit a signed quarterly investment report that summarizes current
market conditions, economic developments and anticipated investment conditions. The report shall
summarize investment strategies employed in the most recent quarter, and describe the portfolio in
terms of investment securities, maturities, risk characteristics, and shall explain the total
investment return for the quarter.

Comprehensive Annual Financial Report to the City Manager and City Council.

investment policy. The reports shall be formally reviewed at least annually by an independent
auditor, if investments are other than those offered by the City's depository. The portfolio shall be
marked to market monthly. The market value of the securities is to be provided by the City's

portfolio, the available markets, and the relative value of competing instruments, and will adjust
the portfolio accordingly.

Ask: The price at which securities are offered.
Bid: The price offered for securities.
Broker: A broker brings buyers and sellers together for a commission paid by the initiator of the
transaction or by both sides. In the money market, brokers are active in markets, in which banks
buy and sell money, and in interdealer markets.
Certificate of Deposit (CD): A time deposit with a specific maturity evidenced by a certificate.
Large-denomination CD's are typically negotiable.
Collateral: Securities, evidence of deposit or other property that a borrower pledges to secure

and account group prepared in conformity with GAAP. It also includes supporting schedules
necessary to demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal and contractual provisions,
extensive introductory material, and a detailed Statistical Section.
Coupon: The annual rate of interest that a bond's issuer promises to pay the bondholder on the
bond's face value
Dealer: A dealer, as opposed to a broker, acts as a principal in all transactions, buying and selling
for his own account.
Debenture: A bond secured only by the general credit of the issuer.
Delivery versus Payment: There are two methods of delivery of securities: delivery versus
payment and delivery versus receipt Delivery versus payment is delivery of securities with an
exchange of money for the securities. Delivery versus receipt is delivery of securities with an
exchange of a signed receipt for the securities.
Discount Securities: Non-interest bearing money market instruments that are issued at a discount
and redeemed at maturity for full face value, such as U.S. Treasury bills.
Diversification: Dividing investment funds among a variety of securities offering independent
returns.
Federal Credit Agencies: Agencies of the Federal government set up to supply credit to various
classes of institutions and individuals, such as Savings and Loans, small business firms, students,
farmers, farm cooperatives, and exporters.
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC): A federal agency that insures bank deposits,

Federal Funds Rate: The rate of interest at which Fed funds are traded. This rate is currently set
by the Federal Reserve through open-market operations.
Federal Home Loan Banks (FHLB): The institutions that regulate and lend to savings and loan
associations. The Federal Home Loan Banks play a role analogous to that played by the Federal
Reserve Banks vis-a-vis member commercial banks.
Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA): FNMA, like GNMA, was chartered under
the Federal National Mortgage Association Act in 1938. FNMA is a federal corporation working
under the auspices of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, H.U.D. It is the
largest single provider of residential mortgage funds in the United States. Fannie Mae, as the
corporation is called, is a private stockholder-owned corporation. The corporation's purchases
include a variety of adjustable mortgages and second loans in addition to fixed-rate mortgages.
FNMA's securities are also highly liquid and are widely accepted. FNMA assumes and
guarantees that all security holders will receive timely payment of principal and interest.
Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC): Consists of seven members of the Federal Reserve
Board and five of the twelve Federal Reserve Bank Presidents. The President of the New York
Federal Reserve Bank is a permanent member while the other Presidents serve on a rotating basis.
The Committee periodically meets to set Federal Reserve guidelines regarding purchases and sales
of Government Securities in the open-market as a means of influencing the volume of bank credit
and money.

often used to describe Ginnie Maes.
Liquidity: A liquid asset is one that can be converted easily and rapidly into cash without a

bid and asked prices is narrow and reasonable size can be done at those quotes.
Market Value: The price at which a security is trading and could presumably be purchased or
sold.
Master Repurchase Agreement: To protect investors, many public investors will request that
repurchase agreements be preceded by a master repurchase agreement between the investor and
13
14
the financial institution or dealer. The master agreement should define the nature of the
transaction, identify the relationship between the parties, establish normal practices regarding
ownership and custody of the collateral securities during the term of the investment, provide
remedies in the case of default by either party and clarify issues of ownership. The master
repurchase agreement protects the investor by eliminating the uncertainty of ownership and hence,
allowing investors to liquidate collateral if a bank or dealer defaults during the term of the
agreement.
Maturity: The date upon which the principal or stated value of an investment becomes due and
payable.
Money Market: The market in which short-term debt instruments (bills, commercial paper,
bankers' acceptances) are issued and traded.
Open Market Operations: Purchases and sales of government and certain other securities in the
open market by the New York Federal Reserve Bank as directed by the FOMC in order to

operations are the Federal Reserve's most important and most flexible monetary policy tool.
Portfolio: Collection of securities held by an investor.

activity and positions and monthly financial statements to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
and are subject to its informal oversight. Primary dealers include Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) registered securities broker-dealers banks and a few unregulated firms.
Prudent Person Rule: An investment standard. Investments shall be made with judgment and
care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence
exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment,
considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived.
Rate of Return: The yield obtainable on a security based on its purchase price or its current
market price. This may be the amortized yield to maturity on a bond or the current income return.
Repurchase Agreement (RP of REPO): A holder of securities sells these securities to an
investor with an agreement to repurchase them at a fixed price on a fixed date. The security
"buyer" in effect lends the "seller" money for the period of the agreement, and their terms of the
agreement are structured to compensate him for this.

law is to permit a ting unit to adjust the debt portion of its effectiverollback tax rate to account
for anticipated delinquencies
The truthintaxation laws of Chapter 26 also require the Tax AssessorCollector to compare the
amount of debt tax dollars actually collected during the period from July l 2010 through June 30
2011 with the amount of debt tax dollars that should have been collected according to the 2010
anticipated collection rate If a taxing unit collects more debt tax dollars than should have been
collected the collector certifies the excess amount to the governing body The adjusted amount of
debt tax dollars levied in 2010 was 9324820 however the actual debt collections during the
same period was 9345497 Therefore I have certified that 20677 is the full true and correct
amount of excess debt collections
The above stated anticipated collection rate and the amount of excess debt collections will be used
in the calculation of the effectiverollback tax rate for 2011 Attached is the certification of these

REQUEST: A zoning change to PD-251-SF-12 (Planned Development-251-Single Family-

HISTORY: There is no zoning or platting history on this tract. This property has been
owned by TU Electric for over 25 years. An electrical substation was
envisioned for this site.
TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is designated as a 4-lane divided thoroughfare and is built to
standard within a 110-foot right-of-way.

West: Dobecka Addition; SF-12
ITEM #6
Page 2 of 3
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of March 2011, shows the property as
suitable for Residential Neighborhood (1-4 dwelling units per acre).
DISCUSSION: This property is currently zoned SF-12, which permits single family homes
with a minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet. The six-lot subdivision
planned for this property meets and exceeds the minimum lot size requirement
with an average lot size of over 13,750 square feet; however, a Planned
Development district zoning is being requested to allow for several variances
to the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances.
The first variance relates to the provision of, and access to, alleys. With the
proposed design of this subdivision, where four of the six lots back to existing
homes that do not have alleys, it is a reasonable request not to provide alleys
for these lots. The elimination of alleys also allows for the preservation of
existing trees, most of which are in close proximity to this west property line.
The southern two lots (Lots 5 and 6) will back to the existing alley serving the
Willowood No. 2 Addition. The Subdivision Ordinance requires the
construction of alleys, and the Zoning Ordinance requires that access be from
the alley. Therefore, included in this PD request is a variance to the alley
requirement for Lots 1-4, and where there is an existing alley (Lots 5 and 6),
and alley access is requested to be at the builder’s option.
The second variance is a relief to the sidewalk requirement along the east side
of the street. No lots will be abutting the east side of the street, and there will
be a 16-foot wide landscape strip (common area and R.O.W.) and an eight-
foot cedar fence along this eastern property line. This fence will undulate
across from existing driveways (provide 2.5 foot setback) to preserve the
accessibly for cars backing out of driveways from the homes along Castlebury
Court. The buffer strip will be landscaped with alternating 14 to 16-foot Live
Oak trees and eight to ten-foot Southern Magnolia trees. The intent of this
landscape area is to obscure the view of the rear of the existing homes on
Castlebury Court.
The third variance is to the Zoning Ordinance. Single Family-12 District
regulations required a minimum front yard setback of 30 feet. This request is
to reduce this to a minimum of 25 feet for all six lots. All other development
regulations will be adhered to. Given that this is s single-loaded street, and the
lots will front on a landscaped buffer strip, this variance can be supported.
Landscaped common areas are being provided along Sandy Lake Road, along
the east property line, and a 3,810 square foot common area is being provided
between Lots 4 and 5. The common area along Sandy Lake is 15 feet in width
and will be landscaped with overstory trees along the frontage and shrubs and
flowers at the entry. The Homeowners Association will maintain all common
areas.
ITEM #6
Page 3 of 3
The only outstanding issue with this request is the design and materials
proposed for the screening wall along Sandy Lake Road. The applicant is
requesting an 8-foot tall, cream-colored stonewall, similar to Alexander Court
(northwest corner of Denton Tap and Bethel Road) with a 12 square-foot pin-
mounted Cortin steel sign. However, the existing fences along the south side
of Sandy Lake Road are generally red brick. Directly across Sandy Lake Road,
on both sides of Trailwood Lane are the stone entry features for Pecan Ridge
Estates. Staff is recommending a similar design for this wall, whereas the
angled portion could be of stone, and the frontage along of Sandy Lake Road
be red brick. The portion of the wall along Sandy Lake Road shall also have
masonry columns expressed at a minimum of ten feet and a maximum of 30
feet on center. The columns should be taller than the remainder of the wall.
On August 1, 2011 staff received a letter from the applicant offering the
following additional PD conditions:
• Lots 4 & 5 only - No second story transparent west facing windows will
be allowed, this restriction will not include:
o Windows open to the first floor
o Translucent windows (windows that allow light but obstruct
view) and,
o Second floor living area windows with the base of the window
at least six (6) feet above the second floor elevation (floor) level.
• Lots 1, 2, 3 & 4:
o The homebuilder will plant a minimum of two (2), four (4) inch
caliper trees in the rear of Lots 1 through 4.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of PD-251-SF-12, Rosebriar Estates, subject to:
1. Redesign of the screening wall along Sandy Lake Road to be redbrick with
columns and limiting stone materials to an entry feature at Trailwood Court.
2. Payment of Park Development fees in the amount of $1,285 per lot prior to the
filing of the Final Plat.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Recommend approval of the request
2. Recommend disapproval of the request
3. Recommend modification of the request
4. Take under advisement for reconsideration at a later date

Rosebriar Estates, Preliminary Plat
P&Z HEARING DATE: June 16, 2011
CC HEARING DATE: July 12, 2011 (Council denied this Plat and instructed staff to bring this
request back with the PD on August 9, 2011)
STAFF REP.: Marcie Diamond, Assistant Director of Planning
LOCATION: South of Sandy Lake Road between Dobecka Drive and Castlebury Court
SIZE OF AREA: 2.8 acres of property
CURRENT ZONING: SF-12 (Single Family-12 )
REQUEST: A preliminary plat to allow the subdivision of 2.8 acres of property into six (6)
single-family lots, with a minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet and three (3)
common area lots.
APPLICANT: Brad Meyer, Principal
Contrast Development, LLC
300 E. John Carpenter Freeway, Suite 940
Irving, Texas 75062
972-793-7685
E-mail: Brad.meyer@contrastdevelopment.com
HISTORY: There is no zoning or platting history on this tract. This property has been
owned by TU Electric for over 25 years. A substation was envisioned for this
site.
TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is designated as a 4-lane divided thoroughfare and is built to
standard within a 110-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North: Pecan Ridge Estates; PD-113-SF-9
South: Willowood No. 2; SF-7
East: Castlebury Court; PD-170-SF-7
West: Dobecka Addition; SF-12
ITEM # 7
Page 2 of 2
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of March 2011, shows the property as
suitable for Residential Neighborhood (1-4 dwelling units per acre).
DISCUSSION: This is a companion to the PD 251-SF-12 zoning request. The variances
established in this Planned Development are also reflected on this Preliminary
Plat.
The proposed lots will front on a single-loaded residential street, Trailwood
Court, which will be an extension of Trailwood Lane. Trailwood Lane
currently runs from Sandy Lake Road north to Park Valley Road, serving the
Pecan Ridge Estates neighborhood. To accommodate the geometry required
to provide a safe intersection, the existing median nose in Sandy Lake Road
will need to be slightly reconfigured as part of this construction project. The
applicant will also be responsible for the construction of a left turn storage
lane in the median of Sandy Lake which will provide access for westbound
traffic to Trailwood Court.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of Rosebriar Estates, Preliminary Plat subject to:
1. Correction of the details in Section A-A (proposed street/alley section).
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Recommend approval of the request
2. Recommend disapproval of the request
3. Recommend modification of the request
4. Take under advisement for reconsideration at a later date

HISTORY: This property has a long history. A house was initially constructed on this site in
1953, and stood on the lot for over 40 years. Years later, a renovation permit was
approved to allow a one-story, detached garage in July of 1999. On February 20,
2000, a building permit was obtained to allow the garage to be constructed as a
two story structure. On October 10, 2000, a permit was approved for the main
structure renovation to increase the size to a two-story structure and attach the
garage which was under construction at the time. All construction ceased shortly
thereafter, and over time the structures became a safety hazard. A permit for the
demolition of the garage and addition (ordered by the court) was obtained on
September 30, 2004. The property was sold to the current owner who secured a
demolition permit on March 29, 2007, and then removed all buildings on the site.
ITEM # 4
Page 2 of 3
On May 8, 2007, a rezoning from 2F-9 to PD-227-SF-12 was approved depicting
four residential lots and one common area. A Preliminary Plat was also approved
at that time. In February of 2008, Council modified the plan, and allowed
realignment of a mutual access/fire easement, reconfigured the common lot area,
and relocated the garage access on Lot 4. In September of 2008, a Final Plat was
recorded depicting the four lot subdivision. In December of 2010, the property
owner submitted a revised plan that increased the lot count from four to nine.
That request was denied by Planning Commission and not appealed to Council.
The property owner then revised his nine-lot subdivision to eight and on May 10,
2011, Council overruled the Planning Commission recommendation for denial,
and approved a revised plan showing eight lots, each with six-foot side yards.
Once the revised 2011 plan was approved by Council, the Plat needed revision,
and is the subject of this case.
TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is a substandard, two-lane asphalt roadway designated on the
Thoroughfare Plan as a four-lane divided thoroughfare. The right-of-way is
projected to be 90 feet. This land owner dedicated 24 feet when the zoning was
changed to the initial PD and the property was platted.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North: Summer Place (single family detached homes on approximately 4,000
square foot lots); PD-148 (Planned Development-148)
South: Forest Cove and Georgian Place (single family homes on approximately
8,800 square foot lots); SF-7 (Single family-7)
East: Shadydale Acres (single family homes on approximately 33,000 square foot
lots); SF-12 (Single family-12)
West: Summer Place (single family detached homes on approximately 4,000 square
foot lots); PD-148 (Planned Development -148)
/COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan adopted by Council on March 22 shows this property
developed as a residential neighborhood with densities ranging from one to four
units per acre depending upon surrounding development patterns.
DISCUSSION: This is a straight-forward case now that the density and setback issues have been
resolved. The eight-lot subdivision was approved by Council in May, and the
developer has abided by all conditions applied to that approval. This subdivision
replat request can be supported by staff.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request with the following conditions:
1. A Tree Removal Permit is required prior to start of construction
2. Park Development Fees in the amount of $1,285 per unit are required

HISTORY: On December 16, 2010, the Planning Commission denied a zoning case on this
property because of density and street layout. The applicant resubmitted in
February of 2011 with a much improved circulation design, and reduced the
density to 22 single-family homes. The Council approved the revised plan on
March 8, and this request, if approved, would allow the land to be developed with
the proposed single-family subdivision.
TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is an improved, concrete, four-lane divided thoroughfare
immediately to the north of the subject tract. It is classified as a C4D on the
Thoroughfare Plan and contains 90 feet of right-of-way. Heartz Road, to the west of
ITEM # 5
Page 2 of 2
this tract, has been recently resurfaced with concrete and contains 50 feet of right-of-
way. London Way is a standard residential street with 27 feet of concrete paving in
a 50-foot right-of-way, and is immediately east of the subject property.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North: Sandy Lake Road and Ashton Ridge Planned Development (single-family
homes on approximately 8,000 plus square foot lots); PD-156-SF-9
South: Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church (former Manara Charter School); SF-12
East: existing single-family subdivision; PD-166-SF-7
West: existing single family development; SF-7
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan adopted by Council on March 22 shows this property
developed as a residential neighborhood with densities ranging from one to four
units per acre depending upon surrounding development patterns.
DISCUSSION: This property was approved for a 22-lot subdivision by Council in March. The
preliminary plat was also approved in March. This Final Plat reflects the
approved preliminary with one change. The common space lot at the north end of
the cul-de-sac has been incorporated into the adjacent lot, Lot #6. Staff supports
this change to expand this residential lot for a variety of reasons including the fact
that the overall density, utility plan, and street pattern remain unchanged, the open
space was placed at a location with some access difficulty, and including the
property into Lot #6 makes that lot more easily developed. Staff supports the
application.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this Replat application with the following conditions:
1. A Tree Removal Permit will be required prior to start of construction
2. Park Development fees in the amount of $1,285 per unit is required

HISTORY: The Site Plan and Minor Plat for the Vaughan Addition were approved in September of 2005.
This allowed for the addition of a porch structure at the front and a parking area along the side of
the proposed conversion from a residence to an office. In November 2008, a Replat was
approved to allow 4,490 total square-feet of the Vaughan Addition to be added to Lots 4R and
5R, Block 1 of the Old Coppell Estates Addition and to establish the remaining 1.15 acres of
property as Lot 1R2, Block 1 of the Vaughan Addition.
TRANSPORTATION: West Bethel Road is a two-lane asphalt road contained within a variable width
right-of-way. Freese and Nichols has prepared the construction plans for an
improved roadway (which are now 90% complete) showing variable right-of-way

widths and approximately 28 feet of pavement with angled parking spaces
adjacent to this request. Construction is scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter
of 2011.

West - office; H (Historic)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of March 2011 shows the property as suitable for a use
allowed within the Historic District (office use is appropriate).
DISCUSSION: This is part one of a two-part request to divide .9 acres from the northern portion of this
lot and to incorporate this land into the rear portion of two lots of the Old Coppell Estates
Addition which front on Hearthstone. This will reduce the existing lot size of the Lot
1R1, Block 1 Vaughan Addition from 1.2 acres to .3 acres. Lots 4R and 5R, Block 1 of
the Old Coppell Estates Addition are proposed to be replatted to reflect the change (the
other part of the request). Staff is recommending approval, as this is simply changing the
orientation of this property between two adjacent subdivisions for the purposes of land
sale.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of Lot 1R2, Block 1, Vaughan Addition with no outstanding
conditions.
