Construction Plan Review Comments
Dear Mr. Bentley:
The City of Coppell has reviewed the referenced plans and has the following comments to offer:
General Notes
In future submittals, please arrange the plan sheets in the appropriate order (i.e. cover sheet, plat,
site plan, etc.)
Sheet Al
1. There appears to be some discrepancies regarding the construction of barrier -free ramps and
the location of the end of curb between this sheet and Sheet Cl.
2. Explain the reasoning behind installing the fire lane without a curb.
3. Show existing power poles, inlets, fire hydrants, etc.
4. Label the proposed barrier -free ramp at the northeast corner and require the use of pavers per
City Standards.
5. The sidewalk along Fitness Court can be 4 ft. wide.
6. A letter of approval from the Boorhem property is required to allow the driveway curb return
to extend across the property line.
Plat
Our records indicate that the easement for the 8" sanitary sewer already exists. Verify and
include volume and page number.
Sheet Cl
1. Add "and Subdivision Ordinance" to Grading General Note 1 and Paving General Note 1.
2. Add a requirement for 6" lime stabilized subgrade to Paving General Notes 2 and 5. If it is
your intention to not install a lime subgrade beneath your paving, a written request for waiver
must be made to the City. That request is generally approved for private paving as long as
the strength of the concrete is increased to 4000 psi or the thickness is increased by one inch.
Any paving within public right -of -way still requires a flex -base subgrade.
Sheet C2
Can the proposed 18" RCP connections at the north end of the property legally be made across
the 2 ft. area that is in litigation?

Sheet C3
1. The irrigation meter size and location does not agree with that on the LP -2. Verify which is
correct.
2. Water service to the site and proposed fire hydrant should be made with a single tap to the 8"
waterline.
3. Relocate the proposed fire hydrant to within the right -of -way. A separate easement will not
be necessary.
4. Contact the Fire Marshal's office regarding the fireline, if any. Show any fireline and the fire
department connection on this plan.
5. Indicate that the irrigation line will include a double check valve.
6. Include "Standard Details and Specifications" in General Note 1.
7. Add General Note 11 to read "Contractor will notify the City of Coppell's Utility Department
24 hours prior to making the waterline tap. (972- 304 -3545)
Sheet C4
Offsite inlet protection to the north of this property is shown. Is this necessary and will it be
allowed by the property owner?
There are other minor comments throughout the plans. Please make the necessary changes and
resubmit these marked -up plans and two sets of revised plans to the City for review or
approval. If you have any questions, please contact this office at your convenience.
