ENGINEERING COMMENTS
ITEM: Wendy's, Preliminary Plat, to allow the operation of a drive-tkrough
restaurant, located on the east side of Denton Tap Road, approxitnately
390' north of Sandy Lake Road, at the request of Dowdey Anderson &
Associates, Inc.
DRC DATE: October 27, 1994 and November 3, 1994
CONTACT: Ken Grif~n, P.E., Assistant City Manager/City Engineer (393-1016)
INITIAL PRELIMINARY d' FINAL
Preliminary Plat Comments:
1. An off-site easement is required for the common driveway.
2. The existing Wendy's site on MacArthur Blvd. combined with the Tom Thumb
Shopping Center driveway is creating tremendous traffic problems for the City of
Coppell. A traffic impact analysis should be provided so that the City can better work
with the developer to provide the proper ingress and egress to the site to minimize the
impact on Denton Tap Road.
3. The 24' fire lane should also be an access easement to allow for cross access to other
sites.
Utility Plan Comments:
1. The water service should have a double check valve.
2. Construction plans will be required for the off-site sanitary sewer line. Also, the City
would request that a master plan be provided for this section of the property. It
appears that the location of the proposed 8" sanitary sewer line is setting up this section
of Denton Tap to be a continuation of fast food and/or small sites. Has consideration
been given to taking the sewer line east of the Wendy's site and adjacent to the western
side of Chaucer Estates back to the existing sanitary sewer line.
Landscape Plan Comments:
1. The irrigation meter will require a double check valve.

COMMENT STATUS: ./INITIAL PRELIJfflNARY FINAL
S.U.P. /Site Plan Comments:
1. Why are the parking spaces along the north side slanted?
2. The 24' fire lane should also be an access easement to allow for cross access to other
sites.
3. Have you considered any other layout of this property that would save more than just
four trees? Of the twenty trees shown on this site, sixteen are being removed with this
layout.
4. The site plan shows a proposed access easement southward toward Sandy Lake Road.
Is it your intention to construct that access easement at this time? If so, do you have
a master plan layout of this property to insure that it is constructed in the proper
location?
5. Because of concerns with the Wendy's/Tom Thumb and the MacDonald's/Minyards
intersections, the City is very concerned about the creation of a four-way stop that
would coincide with the northern driveway out of the Albertsons Shopping Center at
Goodyear. The difficulty of this access location is compounded by the fact that you
have very limited sight distance to the north for south bound oncoming traffic because
of a vertical curve in Denton Tap Road. Because of the aforementioned concerns, a
traffic impact analysis should be provided. It should also evaluate the limitations of
sight visibility to insure that a safe roadway is constructed.
