DULY PASSED by the City Council of Coppell, Texas, this the __________ day of ___________________, 2025. APPROVED: ______________________________ WES MAYS, MAYOR ATTEST: ________________________________________ ASHLEY OWENS, CITY SECRETARY APPROVED AS TO FORM: __________________________________ ROBERT HAGER, CITY ATTORNEY CITY OF COPPELL 2024 INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL CODE AMENDED LANGUAGE NOTES [A] 101.1 Title. These regulations shall be known as the Building Code of [NAME OF JURISDICTION], hereinafter referred to as “this code.” 101.1 Title. These regulations shall be known as the Building Code of the City of Coppell, hereinafter referred to as “this code.” Amending this section is necessary for the adoption of this code. R103.1 Creation of agency. The [INSERT NAME OF DEPARTMENT] is hereby created and the official in charge thereof shall be known as the building official. The function of the agency shall be the implementation, administration and enforcement of the provisions of this code. R103.1 Creation of enforcement agency. The Department of Building Inspections is hereby created and the official in charge thereof shall be known as the building official. Amending this section is necessary for the adoption of this code as it identifies the title of the department. R104.2.3.1 Flood hazard areas. The building official shall not grant modifications to any provisions required in flood hazard areas as established by Table R301.2 unless a determination has been made that: 1. There is good and sufficient cause showing that the unique characteristics of the size, configuration or topography of the site render the elevation standards of Section R306 inappropriate. 2. Failure to grant the modification would result in exceptional hardship by rendering the lot undevelopable. 3. The granting of modification will not result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety or extraordinary public expense; cause fraud on or victimization of the public; or conflict with existing laws or ordinances. 4. The modification is the minimum necessary to afford relief, considering the flood hazard. 5. Written notice specifying the difference between the design flood elevation and the elevation to which the building is to be built, stating that the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from the reduced floor elevation and stating that construction below the design flood elevation increases risks to life and property, has been submitted to the applicant. Section R104.3.2.1 Flood Hazard areas shall be deleted in its entirety. This is a continuation of our current amendment for this section, which is also a NTCOG recommendation. State law places flood hazard areas under engineering department. R105.2 Work exempt from permit. Exemption from permit requirements of this code shall not be deemed to grant authorization for any work to be done in any manner in violation of the provisions of this code or any other laws or ordinances of this jurisdiction. Permits shall not be required for the following: Building: 1. Other than storm shelters, one-story detached accessory structures, provided that the floor area does not exceed 200 square feet (18.58 m2). 2. Fences not over 7 feet (2134 mm) high. 3. Retaining walls that are not over 4 feet (1219 mm) in height measured from the bottom of the footing to the top of the wall, unless supporting a surcharge. R105.2 Work Exempt from Permit. Exemptions from permit requirements of this code shall not be deemed to grant authorization for any work to be done in any manner in violation of the provisions of this code or any laws or ordinances of this jurisdiction. Permits shall not be required for the following: Building: 1. Water tanks supported directly on grade if the capacity does not exceed 5,000 gallons (18,927L) and the ratio of the height to diameter does not exceed 2 to 1. 2. Painting, papering, tiling, carpeting, cabinets, counter tops and similar finish work. The proposed amendment has been part of our City’s ordinance since we began using the International codes and is in alignment with NTCOG’s recommendations for uniformity with our neighboring municipalities. The original verbiage in the IRC is also not in alignment with the Texas Occupations Code for the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing trades. In addition to the Texas Occupations Codes, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation has rules for electricians and mechanical contractors, and the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners has rules for plumbers. The Occupations Code and each trade’s rules also have requirements for what does and does not require permitting and inspections. CITY OF COPPELL 4.

Batteries in electric vehicles shall be rendered inoperable by the removal of fuses or other approved methods but shall not be required to be disconnected. Electric vehicles shall not be charged inside buildings, other than where approved in parking garages, or unless otherwise approved by the fire code official. Explanation: This code requirement is for indoor display, for example a vehicle located at an indoor shopping mall, not for a single-family residence garage. The addition of #5 is consistent with the North Central Texas Council of Government recommended changes. 2024 International Fire Code: The 2024 International Fire Code does not address our proposed amendment. Coppell Fire Department proposed amendment: 323 Electric Vehicles (EV). 323.1 Electric Vehicle Charging Stations. Electric vehicle (EV) charging stations shall not be located inside buildings, except in one- and two-family dwelling garages, where approved for parking garage locations as per the National Electrical Code and within vehicle service/maintenance facilities as approved by the fire code official. 323.1.1 Charging Stations Inside Parking Garage.

Exception: A labeled electrical breaker is required for one- and two-family dwelling garages, and R-3 or R-4 private garages. 323.3 Damaged Electric Vehicle Batteries. Damaged electric vehicle batteries shall not be stored inside any building. Explanation: This is consistent with the North Central Texas Council of Governments recommended changes. The 2024 International Fire Code does not adequately address the issue. The proposed verbiage is consistent with proposed changes to the 2027 International Fire Code. 2024 International Fire Code: The 2024 International Fire Code does not address our proposed amendment Coppell Fire Department proposed amendment: 401.3.4 False Alarms and Nuisance Alarms. False alarms and nuisance alarms shall not be given, signaled or transmitted or caused or permitted to be given, signaled or transmitted in any manner. The technician performing maintenance on any system capable of transmitting an alarm to the Emergency Dispatch Center shall notify the center, as well as the monitoring company for the property, prior to any work being performed on the system. In addition, the technician shall notify the Emergency Dispatch Center, as well as the monitoring company for the property, immediately upon placing the system back in service. Explanation: The proposed amendment is common to the 4 jurisdictions (Addison, Carrollton, Coppell and Farmers Branch) that utilize North Texas Emergency Communications Center (NTECC) as their emergency dispatch center. To reduce the number of automatic fire alarm calls and the potential delay of emergency services to others in need, we ask that alarm technicians notify the dispatch center of their presence at a building. 2024 International Fire Code: 503.1.1 Buildings and Facilities. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. The fire apparatus access road shall comply with the requirements of this section and shall extend to within 150 feet of all portions of the facility and all portions of the exterior walls of the first story of the building as measured by maximum hose distance or an approved route around the exterior of the building. 503.1.2 Additional Access. The fire code official is authorized to require more than one fire apparatus access road based on the potential for impairment of a single road by vehicle congestion, condition or terrain, climatic conditions or other factors that could limit access. Coppell Fire Department proposed amendment: 503.1.1 Buildings and Facilities. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. The fire apparatus access road shall comply with the requirements of this section and shall extend to within 150 feet of all portions of the facility and all portions of the exterior walls of the first story of the building as measured by maximum hose distance or an approved route around the exterior of the building. Exception: Except for one- or two-family residences, the path of measurement shall be along a minimum of a ten feet (10') wide unobstructed pathway around the external walls of the structure. 503.1.2 Additional Access. The Fire code official is authorized to require more than one fire apparatus access road based on the potential for impairment of a single road by vehicle congestion, condition or terrain, climatic conditions or other factors that could limit access. The Fire code official is hereby authorized and empowered to establish and designate fire lanes as deemed necessary for the proper ingress and egress of emergency vehicles. Any fire lane designated by the Fire code official shall become effective as of the date so designated. 503.1.4. General Maintenance. (a) The Fire code official shall report any negligent surface conditions, markings, or signs to the owner or person in control of property upon which a fire lane exists and shall issue instructions for repair. (b) It shall be unlawful for the owner or person in control of property upon which a fire lane has been designated or exists to fail to maintain the surface of the fire lane in good condition, free of potholes and other non-approved obstructions. (c) It shall be unlawful for the owner or person in control of property on which a fire lane has been designated or exists to fail to maintain any marking of the fire lane as required by this code in a condition which is not clearly legible. (d) Fire lanes shall be installed in accordance with City of Coppell Engineering Standards and Details prior to buildings being constructed above finished floor grade. Explanation: This amendment has been City of Coppell ordinance for over 20 years giving the Fire code official authority to designate where fire lanes are needed and properly maintained. 2024 International Fire Code: 503.2.1 Dimensions. Fire apparatus access roads shall have an unobstructed width of not less than 20 feet and an unobstructed vertical clearance of not less than 13 feet 6 inches. 503.2.3 Surface. Fire apparatus access roads shall be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus and shall be surfaced so as to provide all-weather driving capabilities. 503.2.4 Turning Radius. The required turning radius of a fire apparatus access road shall be determined by the fire code official. Coppell Fire Department proposed amendment: 503.2.1 Dimensions. Fire apparatus access roads shall have an unobstructed width of not less than 24 feet (24') and an unobstructed vertical clearance of not less than 14 feet (14'). The Fire code official shall have the authority to increase the width of fire lanes at the entrances off public streets to include the entire width of the drive opening. 503.2.3 Surface. Fire apparatus access roads shall be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus and shall be constructed to the City of Coppell Engineering Standards and Details. All fire lanes shall be capable of supporting an 85,000-pound vehicle. 503.2.4 Turning Radius. The required turning radius of a fire apparatus access road shall be a minimum of 30 feet inner radius and 54 feet exterior radius. The required turning radii may be decreased if the width of the fire lane increases, as approved by the Fire code official. Explanation: This is consistent with the North Central Texas Council of Governments recommended changes. The dimensions are slightly increased due to the size of the apparatus. When the apparatus stabilizers are extended or when large diameter hoses are utilized, the apparatus is over 14 feet wide, leaving a 10-foot drive for additional emergency apparatus to potentially pass by and for additional working area. 2024 International Fire Code: 503.3 Marking. Where required by the fire code official, approved signs or other approved notices or markings that include the words “NO PARKING – FIRE LANE” shall be provided for fire apparatus access roads to identify such roads or prohibit the obstruction thereof. The means by which fire lanes are designated shall be maintained in a clean and legible condition at all times and be replaced or repaired when necessary to provide adequate visibility. Coppell Fire Department proposed amendment: 503.3 Marking. Where required by the Fire code official, approved striping or, when allowed by the Fire code official, signs, or both, or other approved notices shall be provided for fire apparatus access roads to identify such roads or prohibit the obstruction thereof. Signs or notices and striping shall be maintained in a clean and legible condition at all times and replaced or repaired when necessary to provide adequate visibility. 1) Striping—Fire apparatus access roads shall be marked by painted lines of red traffic paint six inches (6") in width to show the boundaries of the lane. The words "NO PARKING FIRE LANE" or "FIRE LANE NO PARKING" shall appear in four inch (4") white letters at 15 feet intervals on the red border markings along both sides of the fire lanes. 2) Signs—Shall read "NO PARKING FIRE LANE" or "FIRE LANE NO PARKING" and shall be 12" wide and 18" high. Signs shall be painted on a white background with letters and borders in red, using not less than 2" lettering. Signs shall be permanently affixed to a stationary post and the bottom of the sign shall be six feet, six inches (6'6") above finished grade. Signs shall be spaced not more than fifty feet (50') apart. Signs may be installed on permanent buildings or walls if approved by the Fire code official. 3) Brick pavers—Brick paver 'banding' of fire lanes may be approved on a case-by-case basis. Red brick pavers shall be of contrasting colors to provide the visual identity of a 'normally striped' fire lane. Explanation: Provides clarification for the fire lane markings approved in Coppell. 2024 International Fire Code: 503.4 Obstruction of fire apparatus access roads. Fire apparatus access roads shall not be obstructed in any manner, including the parking of vehicles. The minimum widths and clearances established in Sections 503.2.1 and 503.2.2 shall be maintained at all times. Coppell Fire Department proposed amendment: 503.4 Obstruction of fire apparatus access roads. Fire apparatus access roads shall not be obstructed by persons in any manner, including parking, stopping or standing any non-emergency vehicle, whether attended or unattended, in a fire lane. The minimum widths and clearances established in Section 503.2.1 and any area marked as a fire lane as described in Section 503.3 shall be maintained at all times. The operator of a premise shall maintain, free of obstruction, all fire lanes on his premises. No person may mark, post or otherwise identify a non-fire lane private vehicular passageway as a fire lane or in such a manner as tends to create confusion as to whether the passageway is a fire lane. Any unauthorized vehicle on a fire lane is: (1) Subject to removal by the operator of the premises, with the expense of removal and storage to be borne by the registered owner of the vehicle. (2) Subject to citation, as well as removal, by the Fire code official or a police officer, and (3) Prima facie evidence that the person in whose name the vehicle is registered is guilty of a violation of the parking provisions of this section. Explanation: This amendment has been City of Coppell ordinance for over 20 years, adds the legal/punitive verbiage that our municipal judges need for prosecution of the potential citations. 2024 International Fire Code: 507.5.1 Where required. Where a portion of the facility or building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction is more than 400 feet from a hydrant on a fire apparatus access road, as measured by an approved route around the exterior of the facility or building, on- site fire hydrants and mains shall be provided where required by the fire code official. 507.5.3 Private fire service mains and water tanks.

The signatory executing the Contract on behalf of Vendor verifies Vendor does not boycott energy companies and will not boycott energy companies during the term of the Contract.

In accordance with Chapter 2274, Texas Government Code, the City may not enter into a contract or agreement with a company, excluding a sole proprietorship, with 10 or more full-time employees for goods or services valued at $100,000 or more (1) if the company would be granted direct or remote access to or control of critical infrastructure in Texas, excluding access specifically allowed by the City for product warranty and support purposes and (2) if the City knows the company is (A) owned by or the a majority of stock or other ownership interest of the company is held or controlled by (i) individuals who are citizens of China, Iran, North Korea, Russia, or a designated country or (ii) a company or other entity, including a governmental entity, that is owned or controlled by citizens of or is directly controlled by the government of such countries, or (B) headquartered in such countries.

In accordance with Chapter 2271, Texas Government Code, the City may not enter into a contract with a company, excluding a sole proprietorship, with 10 or more full-time employees for goods or services valued at $100,000 or more unless the contract contains a written verification from the company that it: (1) does not boycott Israel; and (2) will not boycott Israel during the term of the contract.

As used in the foregoing verification, “boycott Israel” means refusing to deal with, terminating business activities with, or otherwise taking any action that is intended to penalize, inflict economic harm on, or limit commercial relations specifically with Israel, or with a person or entity doing business in Israel or in an Israeli- controlled territory, but does not include an action made for ordinary business purposes. The signatory understands “affiliate” to mean an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the signatory and exists to make a profit. This section does not apply to a Vendor which is a sole proprietorship and/or which has less than 10 full- time employees. This section does not apply to a contract valued at less than $100,000. Iran, Sudan, and Foreign Terrorist Organizations.

The foregoing representation is made solely to comply with Section 2252.152, Texas Government Code, and to the extent such Section does not contravene applicable Federal law and excludes the entity and each of its parent company, wholly-owned subsidiaries, majority-owned subsidiaries, and other affiliates, if any, that the United States government has affirmatively declared to be excluded from its federal sanctions regime relating to Sudan or Iran or any federal sanctions regime relating to a foreign terrorist organization. The signatory understands “affiliate” to mean any entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the signatory and exists to make a profit.

Prrt, .nd Playground Equlpmonl Why PlayWell is Unique PlayWell has been in business for 33 years and in the construction industry there is something to be said for that! And we believe the biggest reason for that is because of one word, INTEGRITY. We stand behind our work and we don't point fingers. Throughout the process we do our best to communicate updates with the customer and answer any questions they may have. Our playground manufacturer, PlayCraft, is very unique and unlike any other manufacturer in our industry. On pages 3 & 4 I will show you why our quality specifications are above any of our competitors. PlayCraft has thicker powder coats, thicker plastics, higher UV ratings and higher quality decks. All of this leads to less cost of ownership to the customer over the lifespan of the equipment. My goal on page 3 and 4 is not to say we are better than anyone but to simply share specifications and exactly what we do to stand above with our Quality Craftsmanship. The PlayWell Group, lnc.

This public hearing is required to be submitted annually to the City Council so that guidelines for state exemption of day care licensing can be applied for all youth camp programs offered by the Community Experiences Department. These camps include Camp Do-It-All, those offered at The CORE in the summer, and any individual holiday camps that are scheduled throughout the school year. There are no changes to the Ordinance related to the Standards of Care. Background:    The youth camps offered by the City of Coppell are exempt from licensure as observed in the Texas Administrative Code Title 40 Chapter 745.115(3) of the Texas Health and Human Services Department. This is applicable because these programs are operated by a municipality, are recreation programs for children ages 5 through 13, and because they meet the following criteria: • The Standards of Care for the program are annually adopted by ordinance. • The Standards of Care include staffing ratios and qualifications, facility health and safety standards, and monitoring and enforcement provisions. • The Standards of Care are provided to the parents of each program participant. • The parents of each program participant are informed that the program is not licensed by the state. • The program is not advertised as childcare. As parents register their children for Coppell camps, they are provided with a copy of the Standards of Care, as listed in the requirements. Along with the standards, they are also provided information on camp hours of operation, rules, attire, activities and field trips, and all other information parents need for camp to be successful for their child. These Standards of Care are closely monitored by the Recreation Coordinator, CORE Manager and the Assistant Director of Community Experiences. Benefit to the Community: Maintaining Standards of Care ensure that camp programs meet standards as required by the State of Texas. Legal Review: This agenda item was reviewed by the City’s Legal Counsel. Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact related to this agenda item.

Background: At the Council meeting on March 11, 2025, Council approved several amendments. This one was unintentionally left out of the required newspaper notice and therefore could not be heard at the same time. Adequate notice has since been published in the newspaper. The proposed ordinance was the result of Retail Roundtable held with retail developers in FY 2023 to discuss the future trends in retail. During the roundtable, it was the consensus that the current non- conforming signage was most likely never going to be removed and brought into conformance, unless destroyed by a natural disaster. Because these signs were built prior to the current ordinance, they are typically larger in size and greater in height than what the current ordinance permits and are considered legal non-conforming. If they could be rebuilt to the same height and width that they are currently, then the owners of the centers would consider rebuilding these signs to be more architecturally compatible with the centers and would be more uniform with the existing signage along the city roads. Staff is recommending the following verbiage be introduced into the nonconforming signage section: If an otherwise non-conforming monument sign was built prior to the adoption of this ordinance and is not a pole sign as defined in this article, and has been in constant use, it can be rebuilt in the same location with the same height and width provided it is architecturally compatible with the main structure on site. Benefit to the Community: This would allow for the aesthetic improvement of monument signage along the City’s primary image zones. 2 Legal Review: The City Attorney has reviewed the proposed changes. Fiscal Impact: N/A Recommendation: On October 17, 2024, The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously (6-0) recommended approval of the proposed ordinance amendment.

Strategic Pillar Icon: Future Oriented Approach to Residential Development Page 2City of Coppell, Texas Printed on 4/4/2025 1 MEMORANDUM To: Mayor and City Council From: Mindi Hurley, Director of Community Development Date: April 8, 2025 Reference: PUBLIC HEARING: Consider approval of PD-313R2-MF-2, a zoning change request from C (Commercial) to PD-313R2-MF-2 (Planned Development 313- Revision 2 -Multi-Family 2) to approve a Detailed Site Plan for a 71-unit, four (4) story condominium apartment complex on approximately 4.4 acres located on the east side of S. Belt Line Road and west side of Sanders Loop, approximately 660 feet south of E. Belt Line Road and an amendment to the 2030 Comprehensive Master Plan from Mixed Use Community Center to Urban Residential Neighborhood. 2040: Future Oriented Approach to Residential Development The applicant has requested to continue this item until the May 13, 2025, Council meeting. Unfortunately, the required legal notice had already been posted for this date, which is why the item appears on tonight’s agenda. The Council will open the public hearing and then decide whether to proceed with the public hearing, as posted or continue the item, per the applicant’s request. Introduction: This item is presented to the City Council pursuant to the appeal filed by the applicant. The exact same submittal was presented to the City Council for consideration at the end of 2024. The request to change the future land use map and the PD zoning was denied by City Council at that time. This request does not include any new or different components from what was previously presented and denied. Against staff’s advice, the applicant resubmitted the same request to the Planning & Zoning Commission (P&Z) in March 2025. P&Z denied the case, and the applicant is appealing to City Council. This case would require a super majority vote from City Council to approve the request. Staff did not recommend approval based on the previous Council action denying the proposal and land use change. Background: This is a two-part request. Part one is a Detail Site Plan for a four story, 71-unit multi-family condominium product on approximately 4.4 acres. The second part is also associated with the multi- family request, which requires a change to the future land use map from Mixed Use Community Center (or Single Family Residential) to Urban Residential Neighborhood. This proposed 58-ft in height, four-story, 71-unit residential complex is proposed to have condominium units, meaning the individual units are for sale. The applicant has indicated that a Condominium 2 Association will be developed for the property with a board that administers the requirements. The Association will address all maintenance of the building and site amenities. The property and building are L-shaped. The building is off-set from S. Belt Line Road 159-ft; 25-ft from Sanders Loop to the east and 66-ft from the northern property line. The one recommendation from the Traffic Impact Analysis for this site is the installation of a southbound left turn deceleration lane on S. Belt Line Road at the existing median opening serving this site. The main entrance will be from S. Belt Line Road. The southern portion of the property has an ATMOS gas line easement that runs through it and is 100-ft at the widest point. To the north is the DART Silverline passenger rail that is under construction. They are meeting the proposed MF-2 apartment requirements related to parking by providing two parking spaces/unit plus a ½ space for guest parking/unit for two-bedroom units and two and a half parking spaces/unit plus a ½ space for guest parking/unit for three-bedroom units. They are proposing to provide four EV parking areas among the 202 parking spaces provided. The four story 58-ft in height building requires a PD condition, since the allowable number of stories and height for MF-2 is two stories and 35-ft. Because of the property constraints, parking is being provided on the northern portion of the site, with parking in the front yard being requested. They are providing covered parking for more than half of the site through a combination of podium parking and covered parking which exceeds the requirement. The room breakdown of the 71 units is as follows: 32 two-bedroom units (min. 1,300-sf) and 39 three- bedroom units (min. 1600-sf) which will be accessed from an air-conditioned interior corridor. There are two units proposed on the ground floor and the remaining on the 2-4th floors which will be accessible by stairs and two elevators. A PD condition is to allow 39 three-bedroom units which is more than the typical 10% listed for MF-2. They are proposing an area on the main floor as a multi-purpose room for residents to use (2,100-sf), and a walking trail on the roof. There will be a minimum 42” parapet on the roof. Staff is requesting that they provide a mail area on the floorplan. Proposed exterior amenities include: a dog park, a fire pit with seating area, a water feature with seating area, a butterfly garden, and two flex sport/game areas. A tubular picket fence with brick columns spaced 30-ft on center is proposed along the north and west portion of the property. The density for this project is proposed to be 16- units/acre which falls within the MF-2 allowance. DART The following information was taken from the DART website: DART anticipates weekday service for the Silver Line to be from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. However, it's possible that service hours could be as early as 5:00 a.m. or as late as 11:00 p.m. The Silver Line will run every 60 minutes, and during peak hours, such as weekday commute times, it will run every 30 minutes. This line should be in operation in late 2025 to mid-2026. The applicant is proposing to provide sound reducing windows on the north and west sides of the building and all exterior walls will include continuous insulation on the outside of the studs, which provides both thermal and sound reducing qualities. Stud cavities will have a minimum R-19 insulation for thermal and sound reducing qualities as well. Also, the roof deck will be heavily insulated for thermal and sound absorption. Exterior walls will consist of a mixture of brick and cement plaster, both providing enhanced sound reducing qualities. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended that all the windows on the building be sound reducing and not just those on the north and west side of the building as well as all exterior walls include continuous insulation on the outside of the studs with a minimum of R-19 insulation. 3 Land Use Amendment The 2030 Master Plan calls for this area to be Mixed Use Community Center (or Single Family Residential) with a maximum density of 10 dwelling units per acre. The area was to be mixed-use consisting of both neighborhood and community serving commercial, retail and office uses, or to be medium density single-family urban residential with commercial services and transit services accessible within a short walking distance. This area is currently served by industrial buildings to the west, Cypress Water’s to the east, a bank to the south and a new DART Silverline passenger rail abutting the northern boundary of this property. Part of the request is to amend the Future Land Use Plan for this site to Urban Residential Neighborhood, which allows for higher density residential uses that serve the needs of residents seeking alternatives to low and medium density single-family detached housing. Benefit to the Community: Provides housing to the community. Legal Review: The City Attorney was present at the Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting. Fiscal Impact: N/A Recommendation: The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended DENIAL (4-2) of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Amendment from Mixed Use Community Center (or Single Family Residential) to Urban Residential Neighborhood and the PD Zoning request. Should Council decide to approve the request, staff would request it be subject to the following conditions: 1.

ITEM # 8 Page 1 of 5 CITY OF COPPELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT PD-313R2-MF-2, Lake Breeze Condominiums P&Z HEARING DATE: March 20, 2025 C.C. HEARING DATE: April 8, 2025 STAFF REP.: Mary Paron-Boswell, Sr. Planner LOCATION: SEQ of S. Belt Line Rd and E. Belt Line Rd. and west side of Sanders Loop. SIZE OF AREA: 4.408 acres of property CURRENT ZONING: C (Commercial) REQUEST: A zoning change request from C (Commercial) to PD-313R2-MF-2 (Planned Development 313- Revision 2 -Multi-Family 2) to approve a Detailed Site Plan for a 71-unit, four (4) story condominium apartment complex on approximately 4.4 acres located on the east side of S. Belt Line Road and west side of Sanders Loop, approximately 660 feet south of E. Belt Line Road and an amendment to the 2030 Comprehensive Master Plan from Mixed Use Community Center to Urban Residential Neighborhood. APPLICANT: Owner: Coppell Lake Breeze LLC Vijay Borra 924 S. Belt Line Rd. Coppell, Texas 75019 972-469-2799 Email: vijay@dfwland.com HISTORY: The 2030 Comprehensive Plan originally had this area identified as Mixed-Use Neighborhood Center and was amended in 2016 to Mixed Use Community Center (or Single Family Residential). This property has never been developed. A request in 2023, to build a four story, 120-unit 55+ age restricted active living complex was denied by City Council. The exact same request for a 71-unit four story condo units, was denied by City Council in 2024. HISTORIC COMMENT: This property does not have any historic significance. ITEM # 8 Page 2 of 5 TRANSPORTATION: E. Belt Line Rd is a six-lane divided thoroughfare. S. Belt Line Rd is a six-lane divided thoroughfare. Sanders Loop is a substandard 21’ road within 56’ right-of-way SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING: North: DART Silverline ROW- (C) South: Chase Bank – Commercial (C) East: City Limits - Cypress Waters, City of Dallas West: Industrial – Light Industrial (LI); Restaurant & Auto Repair – Commercial (C) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Coppell 2030 Comprehensive Master Plan shows this property as Mixed Use Community Center (or Single Family Residential). DISCUSSION: This is a two-part request. Part one is a Detail Site Plan for a four story, 71-unit multi-family condominium product on approximately 4.4 acres. The second part is also associated with the multi-family request, which requires a change to the future land use map from Mixed Use Community Center (or Single Family Residential) to Urban Residential Neighborhood. This exact same request went before City Council for consideration at the end of 2024. The request to change the future land use map and the PD zoning was denied by City Council at that time. This request does not include any new or different components from what was previously presented and denied. Against staff advice, the applicant has decided to resubmit the same request. Based on the previous Council direction, not approving the proposal and land use change, staff cannot support this request. Detail Site Plan – Lake Breeze Condominium Apartments This proposed 58-ft in height, four-story, 71-unit apartment complex is proposed to have condominium units, meaning the individual units are for sale. The applicant has indicated that an HOA will be developed for the property with a board that administers the requirements of the HOA. The HOA will address all maintenance of the building and site amenities. The property is L-shaped and the building matches it with the site plan showing the L-shaped building being off-set from S. Belt Line Road approximately 159-ft; 25-ft from Sanders Loop to the east and 66- ft from the northern property line. The southern portion of the property has an ATMOS gas line easement that runs through it and is 100-ft at the widest point. The main entrance will be from S. Belt Line Road. To the north is the DART Silverline passenger rail that is under construction. They are meeting the base MF- 2 apartment requirements related to parking by providing two parking spaces/unit plus a ½ space for guest parking/unit for two-bedroom units and two and a half parking spaces/unit plus a ½ space for guest parking/unit for three-bedroom units. They are proposing to provide four EV parking areas among the 202 parking spaces provided. As recently described, this four story 58-ft in height building requires a PD condition, since the allowable number of stories and height for MF-2 is two stories and 35-ft. Because of the property constraints, parking is being provided on the northern portion of the site, with parking in the front yard being requested. They ITEM # 8 Page 3 of 5 are providing covered parking for more than half of the site through a combination of podium parking and covered parking which exceeds the requirement. The room breakdown of the 71 units is as follows: 32 two-bedroom units (min. 1,300-sf) and 39 three-bedroom units (min. 1600-sf) which will be accessed from an air-conditioned interior corridor. There are two units proposed on the ground floor and the remaining on the 2-4th floors which will be accessible by stairs and two elevators. A PD condition is to allow 39 three-bedroom units which is more than the typical 10% listed for MF-2. They are proposing an area on the main floor as a multi-purpose room for residents to use (2,100-sf), and a walking trail on the roof. There will be a minimum 42” parapet on the roof. Staff is requesting that they provide a mail area on the floorplan. Proposed exterior amenities include: a dog park, a fire pit with seating area, a water feature with seating area, a butterfly garden, and two flex sport/game areas. A tubular picket fence with brick columns spaced 30-ft on center is proposed along the north and west portion of the property. DART The following information was taken from the DART website: DART anticipates weekday service for the Silver Line to be from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. However, it's possible that service hours could be as early as 5:00 a.m. or as late as 11:00 p.m. The Silver Line will run every 60 minutes, and during peak hours, such as weekday commute times, it will run every 30 minutes. This line should be in operation in late 2025 to mid-2026. The train lines are under construction and the tracks are elevated in this particular section, measuring from the ground to the bottom beam of the track is approximately 19-ft and about another 7-ft of support and then an additional 3-ft to the handrail on the tracks. This lines up with the third floor of the proposed complex. The applicant is proposing to provide sound reducing windows on the north and west sides of the building. The applicant is proposing that all exterior walls include continuous insulation on the outside of the studs, which provides both thermal and sound reducing qualities. Stud cavities will have a minimum R-19 insulation for thermal and sound reducing qualities as well. The roof deck will be heavily insulated as well for thermal and sound absorption. Exterior walls will consist of a mixture of brick and cement plaster, both providing enhanced sound reducing qualities. Staff added a condition to the recommendation that if this building is constructed that all the windows on the building be sound reducing and not just those on the north and west side of the building as well as all exterior walls include continuous insulation on the outside of the studs with a minimum of R-19 insulation. Building Elevations and Signage The building elevations and material board show a variety of materials and colors proposed for the building. There are three brick colors proposed, ranging from a light cream to a darker beige (ACME 411 RUFF; 55 RUFF ‘Rustic White’; 132 RUFF ‘Alluvial Medium’), cement plaster, ACME Limestone ‘Texas Cream Blend’ and aluminum composite material (ACM). The first-floor parking area will have the limestone with the cement plaster in the two residential units on the first ITEM # 8 Page 4 of 5 floor. The other floors will be a combination of cement plaster with blended brick, a herringbone pattern brick accent and ACM panels. Each unit will have an inset balcony with a steel sun canopy. There were no proposed signs submitted for this development. Any proposed signage will need to conform to City requirements. Traffic Study A Traffic Study has been submitted for this property. The one recommendation for this site is the installation of a southbound left turn deceleration lane on Belt Line Road at the existing median opening serving this site. Landscape Plans & Tree Mitigation The Landscape Plans provided show that the site exceeds the minimum requirements, the majority of this is the Atmos gas easement. They are proposing 65 overstory trees (Live Oak, Cedar Elm, Chinese Pistache, and Shumard Red Oak) and 20 accent trees (Crepe Myrtle, Yaupon Holly). Land Use Amendment The 2030 Master Plan calls for this area to be Mixed Use Community Center (or Single Family Residential) with a maximum density of 10 dwelling units per acre. The area was to be mixed-use consisting of both neighborhood and community serving commercial, retail and office uses, or medium density single-family urban residential with commercial services and transit services accessible within a short walking distance. This area is currently served by office warehouse buildings to the west, Cypress Watter’s to the east, a bank to the south and a new DART Silverline passenger rail abutting the northern boundary of this property. Part of the request is to amend the Future Land Use Plan for this site to Urban Residential Neighborhood, which allows for higher density residential uses that serve the needs of residents seeking alternatives to low and medium density single-family detached housing. Staff is recommending DENIAL of the request. If the Planning and Zoning Commission were to recommend approval, staff would request it be subject to the following PD Conditions: 1. There may be additional comments during the building permit and detailed engineering review. 2. A replat will be required. 3. The installation of a southbound left turn deceleration lane on Belt Line Road at the existing median opening serving this site. 4. Building elevations be approved as presented, however building must provide for noise attenuation for all the windows on the building as well as all exterior walls include continuous insulation on the outside of the studs with a minimum of R-19 insulation. 5. Site lighting shall meet City of Coppell requirements. 6. To allow for parking as shown on the plans. 7. To allow for four stories and a height up to 60-ft 8. To not restrict the number of three-bedroom units. 9. The Future Land Use Plan would need to be amended to Urban Residential Neighborhood. 10. To require HOA documents prior to filing the plat.

Units will consist mainly of 1300 SF and 1600 SF units with balconies. The flrst fioor will be a parking structure constructed of concrete foundation, columns, and slab above. Residential units will be on levels 2, 3 and 4. Two residential units are planned on level 1. A walking track surface is planned for the roof top. Parking will be provided in a parking structure on level 1 under the residential units. Additional covered parking is provided onsite with metal structures. These will be designed to complement the main building Porte cochere. Open-air parking is also provided. Four electric vehicles charging stations will be provided initially, one of these with accessibility clearance in the parking structure. Additional station. can be added as demand increases. Site amenities include a dog park, flre pit with seating, butterfiy garden, and fiex sports areas. A one-hundred-foot wide Atmos easement crosses diagonally on the south side of the lot. Atmos is very restrictive on what can be constructed on the easement including parking. Windows on the north and west sides will be sound reducing type windows. All exterior walls will include continuous insulation on the outside of the studs. This provides both thermal and sound reducing qualities. Stud cavities will have minimum R-19 insulation for thermal and sound. The roof deck is heavily insulated for thermal and sound absorption. Exterior walls will consist of a mixture of brick and cement plaster, both providing enhanced sound reducing qualities as opposed to thinner siding materials. A HOA will be developed for the property with a board that administers the requirements of the HOA. The HOA will address all maintenance of the building and site amenities.
