RE: Availability of City Utilites
Coppell Commerce Center (Located on the northeast corner of Freeport Pkwy. and Burns St.)
Mr. Williams:
This letter is in response to an email I received from you concerning the availability of utilities to the
referenced property. To the best of my knowledge the utilities are as follows:
WATER:
There is currently a 16" water line in the west right-of-way of Freeport Parkway, an 8" water line in
the south right-of-way of Burns Street and an 8" water line in the west right-of-way of Hammond
Street. Obviously, your Engineer would need to evaluate the line in regard to available volume and
pressure for your development. Additional fire hydrant protection for this development will have to
be in accordance with the City of Coppell Rules and Regulations and as determined by the Fire
Marshal.
SANITARY SEWER:
There is currently an 8" sewer line that is located in the middle of this property along an existing
railroad spur right-of-way. This sewer line flows north into an 8" sewer line which then flows
northeast into an existing 12" sanitary sewer line in Bethel Road.
STORM DRAINAGE:
It is my understanding that the existing drainage system around this property is not adequate to
handle the fully developed 100 year storm event required in the City ordinance. Therefore the
developer will either have to construct a storm drainage system capable of handling the "fully
255 PARKWAY * P.O.BOX 478 * COPPELL TX 75019 * TEL 972/462 0022 * FAX 972/304 3673
developed" 100 year storm event on and off site of this development and/or provide a detention pond
on site.
As always, in the development of the property your Engineer should determine if the existing
utilities available to this site are adequate to serve your proposed development
Also attached is a copy of the City Council agenda item which approved the temporary closure of
Burns and Hammond Streets. As indicated in the agenda item the roads would remain closed until
further notice by representatives of the Carter Crowley Properties.
If you have any questions or comments please contact me at 972-304-3679.
Sincerely,
Michael A. Martin, P.E.
Assistant City Engineer
