RE:
Springs of Coppell - Comments
The Park Board through the Parks department would like these comments
addressed:
An assurance that no increase in water elevation along Grapevine
Creek will occur which would impact potential park to occupy the
former Grapevine Springs site.
o
The size of the parcel has been reduced to 6 acres from the original
14 acres. This will limit any available space for parking or
cause encroachment onto the site to develop a parking area which
may impact any natural, historical or archeological area.
o
The developer has offered no improvement of the potential park
site and will look at transferring ownership of the property only.
The Board would,like screening or buffering of the potential park
site along any area where another use is planned to occur adjacent
to the potential park site. This is primarily where a light
industrial use will be bordering on the potential park site.
o
The Board is concerned that areas of historical significance and
archeologically important areas may be lost due to development
occuring on them.
The Board would like Park Boulevard, the only entry into the
potential park site, improved so that safe ingress/egress is
maintained.
The Board has expressed concerns over storm water frdm the improved
areas being directed through the potential park damaging the
historical structures through increased volume and velocity of
that water.
