George,
Thanks for your prompt review! They are willing to include this in their construction. We will double check the shared
parking agreement with our partner in the Main Street Development to make sure there will not be any other hurdles.
Thanks again! I will try to set up a meeting with the Architect for this morning to figure out exact details and revisions
needed to their site plan.Sorry, I listed Jamie on the email but forgot to actually include her.
I am copying her on this.

WOW... so they got someone to write a word document (not signed)to state that the City is opening themselves up to
potential lawsuit because the property owner is changing their site. Please explain how this is the City's responsibility
and not the owners(This is a rhetorical question)? Also to note,the letter states that two spaces are recommended but
the plan only shows one.The letter uses a bunch of vague wording like "a good distance" and not specifics like 200'etc.
It appears reasonable that they be required to install two accessible spaces on Houston. They will be responsible as part
of their project to design, construct and ensure it meets all state and federal standards.
Evaluating the parking situation, the site plan indicates that 6 parking spaces are required. They have 2 onsite and 5
new spaces on Coppell Road. With the addition of van accessible spaces on Houston, there is a reduction of 1 space
leaving a net of 6 spaces exactly.
Please have the site plan revised to reflect the parking space changes (two HC spaces on Houston) and we will review
their Civil plans when they come in for review. This project will require a Construction Development Permit through
us.
Thank You, George

Kent,Jamie, and George,
It was brought up at the council meeting for the applicant to verify that the proposal met the handicap requirement.
They hired a consultant to review it and write the attached letter(A1-2017 Pence Office).
The Architect's summary of the letter is below.
I have attached his proposed revised plan (FRONT PAARKING STUDY) that shows the modifications to the on-street
parking converting two regular spaces into a handicap accessible space and staging area. He can then convert the two
onsite parking spaces (one van-accessible handicap, one regular) into three regular spaces... I believe this would be the
safest route for the city and keep us in compliance with ADA.
Do you have any thoughts?
Thanks,
Matt

I have attached the letter that EMCUE provided to me. Based on initial review of our plans. The condensed answer
based on our conversation is that Our solution meets TAS requirements based on the fact that Houston street parking
already established and maintained by the city. He would recommend that the city add a van accessible spot on
Houston to insure TAS compliance, but he isn't allowed to take into account the adjacent properties usage, and
occupancy, so his suggestion to the city is based on partial information.
Let me know if you need anything else,
Have a great day,

Jamie,
Thanks.
Please stop by when you have a chance and I can better explain the situation (i.e.what was/is proposed). It is easier to
describe with plans, an aerial and a pointer.
Thanks,

Good morning,
We have an area of town that is developing that built some parking -we need to have this assessed to see if we
have the correct number of handicapped spaces for the planned development. The question has been raised by a
developer, and it has moved up to a concern we need addressed ASAP. Is that something you guys can give me
a price to do? It is the area next to burns street that Ross just inspected
thanks
