I like it. I think they should construct it with Rosas. The only concern from the meeting with the developer is upfront costs, since
they will also be constructing the deceleration lane for SH 121. Traffic safety trumps costs... so they should construct the decel lane
with Rosas.
See below:
...That prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy of the building, the property owner shall construct the traffic signal in
accordance with the approved traffic signal design plans and comply with any changes mutually agreed upon between the City of
Coppell and the City of Lewisville; components include but not limited to, traffic signal heads, signal pole, video traffic detection,
mast arms with traffic signal indicators, opticom sensor, confirmation light, relocation of pedestrian signal, as well as any required
pavement markings or signs pertinent to the intersection.
At a minimum, a deceleration lane shall be constructed at this time at the southern driveway along Denton Tap Road with the
development of Rosas. Depending on how the balance of the property develops, a second deceleration lane may be required at
the driveway at the Highland Drive intersection. Determination will be made by the City Engineer when the balance of the property
is developed or traffic conditions warrant the deceleration lane at the Highland Drive intersection.

Which is it? "the property owner shall escrow" or "Developer will be required to construct the signal"
Note other comments in last paragraph.
What are your thoughts on my changes?

Ken,
This is for the 4th leg at Highland and Denton Tap (Gateway Development.. Rosas, etc)
...That prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy of the building, the property owner shall escrow the apportioned cost of a
traffic control signal, including but not limited to, traffic signal heads, signal pole, video traffic detection, mast arms with traffic
signal indicators, opticom sensor, confirmation light, relocation of pedestrian signal, as well as any required pavement markings or
signs pertinent to the intersection.
The Developer will be required to construct the signal in accordance with the approved traffic signal design plans and comply with
any changes mutually agreed upon between the City of Coppell and the City of Lewisville.
At a minimum, a deceleration lane shall be constructed at this time at the southern driveway along Denton Tap Road with the
development of Rosas. Depending on how the balance of the property develops, a second deceleration lane may be required at
the driveway at the Highland Road intersection. Determination will be made by the City Engineer when the balance of the property

Also, do you think the portion about "changes" in the first paragraph covers if they need to move the existing, functioning
foundation/mast arm for the driveway cut at Highland Dr.?
