Re: Lakes of Coppell Owners Association
Village Parkway Pump Station & Reservoir "'
Dear Mr. Doyle:
We have received approval from the Architectural Review Committee of the Lakes
of Coppell Owners Association for the above referenced projects. We wish to
bring one item of this approval to your attention. It must be noted that
their approval of the drainage system on the site is temporary.
As you are aware, the tracts to the south and west of the pump station are
extremely low. Portions of these tracts are at or below the 100 year water
surface elevation for Denton Creek. In the design of the pump station and
reservoir, it was determined that an effective enclosed storm drainage system
could not be installed until Kimbel Kourt and the tracts to the west and south
are elevated (reclaimed). The installation of an enclosed drainage system at
this time would be cost prohibitive and most likely ineffective. Thus, the
project was designed to improve the existing drainage ditches with a concrete
pilot channel.
It is our opinion that under the deed restrictions on the property, the City
would be obligated to install an enclosed drainage system at such time as the
adjacent tracts and Kimbel Kourt are reclaimed. We recommend that the City
Attorney be contacted for clarification of any possible ramifications of the
temporary approval by this agency.
A brief study would be required to determine the magnitude of the drainage
system required prior to developing a probable estimate of construction costs.
The timing of the construction would be entirely dependent upon the
reclamation and development of these adjacent areas. Should you have any
questions or need additional information, please contact us.
Sincerely,
Sanford W. Case, P.E.

Re: Lakes of Coppell Owners Assooiation
Architectural Review Status - Village Parkway Pump Station & Reservoir
Dear Mr. Case:
The Architectural Review Committee of the Lakes of Coppell Owners' Association
met on Thursday, June 15, 1989. At this meeting, the Oa;,~ittee reviewed your
recent submittal for the Village Parkway pump station and reservoir located in
the Lakes of Coppell.
The submittal included construction plans, a Project Narrative, and a soil
report. This information was reviewed for compliance with the Lakes of Coppell
Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for compatibility with' the primarily
residential coemunity of the Lakes of Coppell.
Please be advised that the construction plans for the water storage tank and
pump station were approved by the Coe~uittee.
With re~ard to the site plan, engineering, and other required information, the
Co~uittee camented as follows:
1. Generally, open ditches and drainage flumes are not acceptable by the
Lakes of Coppell Architectural Review Cemmittee. The Committee would
approve such a system on a temporary basis, however, until Kimbell
Kourt is' developed as a paved street and/or the property to the west
is developed. Otherwise, the engineering plans were found acceptable.
2. Please submit details and specifications for building-mounted and area
lighting. Flood lights and/or High-Pressure Sodium (PIPS) lights are
not permitted.
3. Pe~ your letter, the landscaping plans will be submitted soon.
Chain link fences are not generally permitted in the Lakes of
Coppell. Approval of a variance by the Committee will be contingent
upon adequate landscaping.

Thank you for your cooperation with the architectural review process. If you
have any questions, please contact me at your convenience.
