Consider approval of an ordinance amending the City of Coppell
Thoroughfare Plan by deleting Gateview Boulevard, in its entirety west from
Royal Lane and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
Date: January 15, 1996
The City of Coppell has been requested to consider the elimination of Gateview Boulevard from
the Thoroughfare Plan. Several factors play into this request for the elimination of Gateview
Boulevard: 1) Gateview Boulevard is not shown on the City of Grapevine Thoroughfare Plan to
be extended to State Highway 121; and 2) the S.I-I. 121 construction plans do not show an exit
ramp from S.H. 121 until you have bypassed where Gateview would connect to the service road.
This, in essence, means that someone on S.H. 121 could not utilize this connection to access
Coppell unless they had already exited the highway south of Bethel Road. The main entrance
from S.H. 121 to Coppell will be at Royal Lane. If Gateview Boulevard is eliminated from the
Thoroughfare Plan the developer of the property at the deadenfl of Gateview would be required
to cul-de-sac the roadway to meet city standards.
Upon consideration of thc various factors surrounding this request, the City of Coppell
Engineering Depaximent offers no objections to the deletion of Gatevicw Boulevard from the
City of Coppell Thoroughfare Plan.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.
