Re: THE COURTYARDS OF RIVERCHASE
COPPELL, TEXAS
Dear Mr. Sieb:
Please find listed below the responses to thc Technical Review Committee meetii~ which was
held on Thursday, 1une 30, 1994.
I. ENG1N~RING CO~ (Ken Griffin, P.E., Director of
A. Tndtlc An~q:
Response: In our' opinion, we see no need in
provisions for a Traffic Analysis since the requested
plattin$ of the propc~y is a substantial decrease in
density. The zonin~ allows for MF-2 Multi-Family
at 24 units per acre which will allow for 695 units.
We are proposin~ 209 townhousc units which
reflect 70% reduction in overall allowed density.
Multi-Family average daily trip generation is based
on approximately 6.6 trips/day per unit which
Multi-Family would yield 4,597 trips/day compared
to Single Family trip generation of 10.1 trips/day
per unit which would yield 2,111 average daily trips
per day for Sin$1e Family. This land use change ~
would result in an overall traffic reduction of 56 %.
