RE: Case # 02- 06- 1090P/ Windsor Estates & Deforest Court
Floodplain of Denton Creek FIRM #4811 COI 55J August 23, 2001
Dear Mr. Martinenza:
June 11, 2002
The City of Coppell has reviewed the referenced map revision request and understands the
impact of the proposed revisions to the floodplain of Denton Creek. The City of Coppell offers
no objections to the requested map revisions and agrees to adopt and enforce the modified
floodplain and floodway limits in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Program
regulations and the City of Coppell's Floodplain Management Ordinance as adopted by City
Council on June 26, 2001 (see attached).
In accordance with the National Flood Insurance Program regulations and the City of Coppell's
Floodplain Management Ordinance, the reclamation of property associated with Windsor Estates
and DeForest Court is reasonably safe from flooding associated with the 100 -year floodplain of
Denton Creek. The City of Coppell's Floodplain Management Ordinance does not allow any
construction within a designated floodplain. In this particular area the floodplain elevation is
452. The lowest allowed minimum finished floor in DeForest Court is 453.4 and the lowest
allowed minimum finished floor in Windsor Estates is 455.2. The allowable minimum finished
floors are as established in the Letter of Map Revision Study for Denton Creek.
Floodplain Development Permit #000609AH was issued on June 9, 2000 for the reclamation of
Windsor Estates and DeForest Court. Based on the existing floodplain maps and the reclamation
study no fill has been placed within a floodway. Also the study shows that there is no rise in the
base flood elevations.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter, do not hesitate to call me.
Sincerely,
Kenneth M. rif in, P.E.
