COMMENT STATUS: / INITIAL PRELIMINARY FINAL
Platting Comments:
1. The paving is required to be concrete on a stabilized base. Aspl'talt is not allowed.
2. The radii for the driveway connectior~s to Southwestern and Bullock Drive should be a
minimum of 20 feet.
3. The word Coppell Road in parerahesis, next to Southwestern Blvd. should be removed.
4. Brick pavers will be required for the drivev,'av entrance to Denton Tap Road. if it is being
rebuilt.
5. Grading and drainage plans will be required prior to construction.
6. Visibility easements should be sho~,vn for the driveway connection at Denton Tap Road.
This will affect the location of the landscaping.
7. A five toot sidewalk should be provided for Denton 'l'ap Road.
8. It appears as though your drive thru lane is encroaching entirely within the 15 foot
landscape easement.
9. You are showing a 21 foot radius for your turning lane. This is inadequate. A typical
vehicle needs a minimum of 26 feet to turn and even larger vehicles such as trucks, etc need
44 feet.
Additional Comments:
10. With the current configuration for tile drive thru and the entrance off of Southwestern you
have conflicting traffic movements on site. Because of the previous comment about the
turning radius and the conflicting traffic inovements on site. you need to reevaluate and
revise your site layout as it pertains to thc drive thru and the entrances.
You should contact this office at 304-3679 as soon as possible to schedule a time to discuss
this site plan prior to the DRC meeting.

developed adjacent to Denton Tap Road. This easement is for sidewalks and/or utilities.

traffic, therefore, you should rebuild Bullock to a concrete street up ti, your driveway or
eliminate your driveway' connection to Bullock.
