The Honorable Candy Sheehan v,~~:! .~
Mayor, City of Coppell (~
255 Parkway BIvd. ; 'y~t)
P.O. Box 478 ~
Coppell, TX 75019
Dear Mayor:
A~ach~ are ~o ~titions on behalf of the tenants of Valley Ranch
Centre at 820 S. MacA~hur and The John T. Evans shopping center across the
street at 817 S. MacA~hur in Coppell. Each signature testifies to a serious
traffic problem within our CiW--the intersection between both affected shopping
centers.
Note that these petitions are signed by a manager or owner of almost
eveW business within those ~o areas. From A~ & Frame to Jeff the Jeweler,
Wendy's to McDonald's, Boston Market to Video Update ....all clearly testi~ to
the safeW issue.
Ci~ engineering staff is aware of the need, but resists due to the
intersection's proximiW to ~lt Line at MacArthur. However, many similar
intersections within the Dallas/Fo~ Wo~h metropolitan area have existing traffic
lights,
We ask ~at you bring this fo~ard on a future Council agenda. As
indicted by the many business represented on the a~ached ~titions, we
ce~ainly feel that commerce and public safe~ on the south side of Coppell are
affected. Many of us are also Coppell citizens and pay homeowner's taxes as
well as t~es associated with our businesses. As such, we would like to have
a~ess to our elective leadership for consideration of this project. Questions
and correspondence should ~ addressed to our managememt contact: Mr.
Herb Ziev, Regency RealW Corporation, 10675 E. Noahwest Highway, Suite
2630, Dallas, TX 75238, 21 4-696-95~. Thank You.
Resp d on behalf
of Coppell busine~es listed
Attachment:
Shopping Center Petitions for:
820 S. MacARthur & 817 S. MacArthur.
Attention Valley Ranch Center Tenants:
Do you believe your Business is Being negatively
impacted By dangerous traffic flow at the 820 S. MacArthur
intersection at the west end of our Shopping Center.7 In the
past Tom Thumb grocery has paid Coppell police officers to
direct rush-hour traffic at this intersection. In the future
this expense may be charged to our CAM lease expense.
This expense is significant and will probably levy
additional cost upon each tenant.
However, it is the City of Coppell that is responsible
for the public safety and public welfare of that right-of-
way, and as such may ultimately Be liable for it's safety.
Collectively we represent significant property and sales tax
dollars to the City. Those dollars should also represent our
interests. Traffic is so heavy at that intersection that our
concern is warranted. And, the growing perception of
danger at that intersection is already affecting some of our
businesses.
If you agree that this intersection is dangerous and
warrants a traffic light, then please sign Below. This is a
win-win situation for you as a business, the city as liable
for public safety, and the consumer whose life our unified
action may save.

Attention 8 17 MacArthur Shopping
Center Tenants:
Do you believe your business is being negatively
impacted by dangerous traffic flow through the intersection
of 817 and 820 S. MacArthur? In the past Tom Thumb
grocery has paid Coppell police officers to direct rush-hour
traffic at this intersection. They plan to discontinue this
practice in the near future.
However, it is the City of Coppell that is responsible
for the public safety and public welfare of that right-of-
way, and as such may ultimately be liable for it's safety.
Collectively, we represent significant property and sales tax
dollars to the City. Those dollars should also represent our
interests. Traffic is so heavy at that intersection that our
concern is warranted. Numerous accidents have occurred
there. And, the growing perception of danger at that
intersection is already affecting some of our businesses.
If you agree that this intersection is dangerous and
warrants a traffic light, then please sign below. This is a
win-win situation for you as a business, the city as liable
for public safety, and the consumer whose life our unified
action may save.

RE: Water System Materials
Dear Ken:
We have reviewed enclosed bids for the annual Water Systems Material contract. Metro
Valve and Pipe submitted the more complete bid. In the past, we have had very good service
from Metro. The other bidders "No Bid" too many items to consider them as a sole
supplier. Based upon this information, I recommend the contract be awarded to Metro
Valve and Pipe.
If you have any further questions or comments concerning this matter, do not hesitate to
call me.

July 1, 1999 through June 30, 2000.
SUBMITTED BY: Jennifer Armstrong
TITLE: Director of Finance
STAFF COMMENTS: Pursuant to Section 26.04 of the Texas Property Tax Code, the Tax
Assessor/Collector has certified the anticipated collection rate for the period of July 1, 2000 through June 30,
2001 to be 99%. The purpose of this law is to permit a taxing unit to adjust the debt portion of its effective
rollback tax rate to account for anticipated delinquencies.
The truth-in-taxation laws of Chapter 26 also require the Tax Assessor/Collector to compare the amount of
debt tax dollars actually collected during the period from July 1, 1999 through June 30, 2000, with the
amount of debt tax dollars that should have been collected according to the 1999 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 1999, was $5,685,892,
however, the actual debt collections during the same period was $5,799,072. Therefore, the Tax
Assessor/Collector has certified that the $113,180 is the full, true and correct amount of excess debt
collections.

DATE: August 3, 2000
FROM: i an
SUBJECT: Establishment o tabilization Reserve
On Tuesday evening you will be considering the establishment of a tax stabilization reserve, as
discussed and voted upon on July 25, 2000.
Staff has discussed this matter, and as City Manager I recommend the establishment of a reserve in
the amount of $3,000,000. While this fund balance may seem high to many, and to others low,
based on recent projections I feel it is a number that we can live with given our present financial
situation. It is also one that does give us a sense of security based on the fund balance projections
that have been provided to you in the past.
As noted on the gold sheet, we also would like to see this as a designation on the fund balance
walkforward. Therefore no special ordinance needs to be passed, but if funds are to be moved from
this designation, it would take a motion, a second, and the support of a majority of the Council to
remove the designation, reduce it, or increase it.
We believe this meets the spirit and intent upon which this item was brought forward. I would be
more than happy to answer any questions you might have regarding it.

CASE NO.: ZC-603(CH)
Southeast Corner of S.H. 121 and Denton Tap Road
LI (Light Industrial} to HC (Highway Commercial)
P&Z HEARING DATE: July 20, 2000
C.C. DATE: August 8, 2000
LOCATION: Southeast comer of S.H. 121 and Denton Tap Road
SIZE OF REQUEST: 7.5+ acres of land
OWNER/SUBDIVISION: Vista Partners
CURRENT ZONING: LI (Light Industrial)
PROPOSED ZONING: HC (Highway Commercial)
HISTORY: On May 18, 2000 the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval of the change in zoning from
Light Industrial to Highway Commercial on the subject
property. However, since that time, the staff received
letters from the property owners of the affected tracts
stating that they did not receive notice of the public
hearings, and requested that this case be re-advertised.
Staff inadvertently used the 1999 versus the 2000 Tax
rolls, the property owners' address had changed, and the
notlc, es that were sent were not forwarded.
On April 20, 2000 the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval of a SUP for a Jack in the Box
restaurant on a portion of this property. Staff
recommended that the base zoning on that property be
changed from LI to HC in accordance with this rezoning
effort. However, this change in zoning was not included
Item # 4
in the Planning and Zoning Commission' s
recommendation. On May 9, 2000 the City Council
approved the SUP for this restaurant subject to a condition
which required conformance with the HC District
regulations, specifically the relocation of the dumpster.
SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING:
North - State Highway 121; City of Lewisville
South - Denton Creek Middle School; SF-7
East - Denton Creek Middle School; SF-7
West - vacant; HC- PD 133
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows this property suitable for
regional retail uses.
DISCUSSION: This property was zoned Light Industrial in 1990 as part
of a 286+ acre zoning request by Vista Mortgage and
Realty. In 1996 the Comprehensive Land Use Plan
designated this area as Regional Retail. In 1997 the
property to the east was zoned SF-7 for a Middle School.
Given the size and configuration of this remaining tract,
light industrial development does not appear feasible.
Retail and office development is more appropriate at this
location. As noted, a Special Use Permit for a fast food
restaurant was recently approved on a pertion of this tract.
The proposed HC District zoning would allow for retail,
office and restaurant developments, and would limit the
industrial uses, being more compatible with the schools
located to the east of this property. This rezoning is also
in accordance with the recommendations of the
Comprehensive Plan.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending a change in zoning from H (Light
Industrial) District to HC (Highway Commercial) District.
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.

approximately 7.5 acres of property located at the southeast corner of S.H. 121
and Denton Tap Road.
Presentation:
Assistant Planning Director Marcie Diamond introduced the item to the
Commission, showing an exhibit of the proposal, stating that because of the
single-family zoning to the east and commercial zoning to the south, light
industrial zoning is no longer appropriate. She stated that staff recommends this

returned in favor or opposition.

This Special Use Permit for a restaurant does not include a private club,
therefore there will be no sales or service of alcoholic beverages in this
restaurant.
The signage consists of white channel letters with dark bronze returns and
trim caps. The raceway is white to match the building fascia. The effective
area of this sign is 16 square feet, which is in accordance with Section 29-
4.3.(B)1. of the Zoning Ordinance.

Fax: (214) 357-2985
HISTORY: There has been considerable platting history on this property with
subdividing and re-subdividing stretching over at least the last four
years on this 5 lot subdivision! The original Final Plat was
approved by the Planning Commission on November 21, 1996.
That plat was not filed for record within the expiration date (May
21, 1997). Therefore, the original plat was deemed null and void
and re-platting was required. In April of 1998 a new final plat was
submitted which contained the same five lots, but in a different
configuration. After staff review, the plat was approved. In the
fall 1999 a re-plat was submitted with the same five lots, and it was
approved in October of 1999.
Item # 7
TRANSPORTATION: Moore Road is a C2U, two-lane undivided road built in a 60 foot
right-of-way. Carter Drive is a two lane local street contained
within a 50 foot right of way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- single-family homes; SF-12
South - DART right-of-way; "A" Agricultural
East - single family homes; SF-12
West -vacant; SF-12 and "A" Agricultural
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
low density residential uses. However, a portion of the
southern area is shown to be in the floodplain.
DISCUSSION:
As indicated in the History Section of this report, there have been several
iterations of proposed subdivision development on this parcel. In
hindsight, the first plat which showed five lots with each sharing the
floodplain designation was unquestionably the best solution for developing
this land from a planning perspective. Since that first approval, this
property has been gerrymandered to the point that with one submittal, one
lot will take all the floodplain; a second submittal will have a different lot
taking all the floodplain land. The most recent application not only
enlarges one lot substantially, but also takes width from the adjacent lot,
making that lot more difficult to develop. Looking at these plats from a
strictly platting perspective, these lots do not make good planning sense,
and it appears that this ever changing lot boundary is based upon the whim
of a potential lot buyer, not on good platting practice!
Very early in the initial review process--we're talking almost two years
ago--we were approached by the engineer and asked to expedite
processing this subdivision because a lot buyer was "ready to go". Staff
accommodated that request and the land set vacant. Last year we
supported enlarging lot #2 and reducing lot #5 at the expense of sound land
planning, again because someone was "ready to go". It still sat vacant.
Now we are again asked to compromise good subdivision design because
we have yet another buyer who is "ready to go". In this case lot #1 goes
from 63,000 square feet to 298,600 and lot #2 is reduced from 284,000
feet to 48,000. In addition, Lot #2 is reduced in width from 160 feet to
137 feet. This lot layout just does not make sense. Unfortunately, we
have already approved a pl-at which, in essence, did the same thing only
with a different lot. Therefore, although it is recognized that this replat
layout does not reflect good subdivision design, we have unfortunately set
a pattern here that is difficult to reverse at this late date. Let it be said that
Item # 7
in the future staff will be more diligent to ensure good design of
subdivisions comes before the Planning Commission.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
We have stated above our concern with the history of this subdivision and
the lack of good design principles being followed here. Unfortunately we
have already approved a plat that, in hind sight, probably should have
received major redesign. Because that plat was approved, we are
compelled to consider this replat in the context of what has already been
approved. That being the case, we support this application provided TXU
easements are provided (see TXU comments attached), and the word
Corporation is spelled correctly on the plat.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3) Recommend modification of the request

HISTORY: The only developmere history on this parcel is a final plat approved
in March of 1995. Two lots were approved for developmere and
one currently has the Primrose School of Coppell on it. The
second lot is the subject of this application.
TRANSPORTATION: Parkway Blvd. is a C4D, improved concrete four lane divided
thoroughfare at this location with a 90 foot r.o.w.
Item # 8
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- single-family residences; SF-7
South - Town Center Elementary School; TC
East - Primrose Day Care Center; TC
West -City hall; TC
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
neighborhood retail uses.
DISCUSSION: This is a dual request--one for site plan approval, the other a replat
application. With regard to the site plan request, the proposed office use
for this property is compatible with the Comprehensive Master Plan. In
general, the approximate 13,000 square foot office fits into the Town
Center area quite nicely. Siting the building back from Parkway
Boulevard is admirable, and with a bit more landscaping--particularly in
the center island--the site design could be quite striking. The
architecture of the building is complementary to Town Center with subtle
detail in windows, cast stone elements, and varied height. In addition,
an office use at this location adjacent to Town Center will generate
activity in harmony with that carried out in our city center. There is one
parking bay containing three parking spaces. As you are aware, all
required parking must be in bays of five spaces or more. This office
building requires 63 parking spaces and they are providing 66.
Therefore, the three-bay parking area above code requirements is
permissible.
The request for replat delineates where the required fire lanes are to be
placed on the ground. As such, staff has no technical comments to be
made, although there are two conditions to be addressed. The fire lanes
comply with City requirements.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the site plan subject to the following
conditions:
-light standards not exceed 25 feet
-landscape with trees at ends of all parking bays
-brick pavers be shown on landscape plan
-dimension typical parking space; if less than 19 feet long
additional landscaping is required--see Zoning Ordinance
-show additional landscaping in center parking bay area
We also support the approval of the replat subject to:
-change title to: Replat of Lot 1-R
-show utility easements as required by TXU

DISCUSSION: This is a request to add an above grade fuel storage tank to Fire Station//2.
This proposal shows the tank behind a 7 foot brick screening wall, and
will appear to be an addition to the existing building. The 7 foot fence is
to ensure the fuel tank (at 4 feet in height) will not be visible from the
front of the building. The brick will be identical to the existing Station,
and will duplicate the look of the building.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the amendment to the existing site plan in
that the tank is needed and the design solution of completely screening it
will respect the architectural integrity of the existing station.
