HISTORY: In October 2002, City Council approved a Site Plan request to allow a 1,558-square-foot
expansion to the existing 29,500 square foot church facility. In addition, 24 new parking spaces
were added to accommodate the enlarged building. The overall approved development package
included a porte cochere, a new rotunda, a breezeway connecting the main church building to an
existing 11,000-square-foot building to its rear, and colonnade walls provided for architectural
interest. The breezeway has yet to be constructed.
In September 2008, City Council approved a Special Use Permit for T-Mobile to construct a 70-
foot-high bell tower with stealth wireless communication antennas mounted inside and a 22' x
20' shelter constructed at the base. This has since been constructed.

Page 2 of 2
TRANSPORTATION: South Heartz Road is a C2U, two-lane undivided roadway built to standard in a
50-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North-Single family residential; PD-166-SF-7
South -Single family residential; SF-7
East -Single family residential; SF-7
West -Single family residential; SF-7
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of March 2011, shows the property as suitable
for residential neighborhood uses.
DISCUSSION: This is a request for three additional sets of antennas to be installed within the
existing 70-foot bell tower. All of the equipment will be located within the tower
itself and within the nine-foot, nine-inch equipment shelter located at the base.
Originally, the applicant proposed to extend the shelter to the south which would
encroach into the drive aisle, but due to concerns related to maneuverability, the
proposal has been reconfigured to expand ten feet to the west. The expansion will
be constructed of CMU to match the existing structure and a condition of
approval is that the expansion, as well as the existing structure, be coated with
stucco and painted the same grey as the tower. All and all, staff is in support of
this request and is recommending approval subject to two conditions listed below.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of S-1247R-SF-12, AT&T Mobility subject to the following
conditions:
1. The expansion, as well as the existing structure, shall be coated with stucco and painted the same
grey as the tower.
2. Insure all proposed equipment is no taller than the height of the nine-foot, nine-inch CMU wall.
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

Re: Update on Healthy Communities Initiative
You are all well aware, that in 2009 the City Council formally adopted the Coppell 2030 Plan.
One of the strategies in the 2030 Plan is to create a Healthy Communities Initiative. The purpose
of the initiative is to establish Coppell as a reputable community that values personal health,
wellness and fitness.
Unfortunately, the D/FW region has a negative reputation regarding health and wellness due to
the lack of outdoor space for recreational activities, accessibility to workout facilities, high
poverty levels, and sedentary lifestyles. It is no secret that maintaining a sedentary lifestyle,
coupled with poor nutrition, could lead to a variety of illnesses, higher medical costs, and an
overall lesser quality of life.
Fortunately, Coppell is a community where a wide array of offerings is available for people to
maintain a healthy and well-rounded lifestyle. For example, Coppell parks and recreation
facilities are well funded and highly utilized; there are strong youth sports associations, a YMCA
branch, and a number of private workout facilities/gyms. In addition, a large network of
physicians is located in Coppell as well as many well-established faith based and not-for-profit
organizations. Also, the demographics of our community as it relates to median household
income and education are high and twice the national average.
Our community is blessed and if the available assets can be pooled together, Coppell could be a
model community for our region, the State of Texas, and the entire United States. To help in this
effort, several individuals (see attached) have been invited to attend a kickoff meeting on
October 24, at the Coppell Community Center. At that meeting, Staff will provide additional
information to further explain this effort and seek volunteers to champion this cause. Todd
Whitthorne, a Coppell resident and CEO of Cooper Concepts, has agreed to facilitate this
meeting and provide guidance to the group. Once the meeting is concluded and details are
discussed, I hope to bring more information before the Council for further updating.
