Park West CC(1)-CS 891103 / ~) The City With A Beautiful Future November 3, 1989 214-462-0022 Mr. Thomas H. Pritchett T. H. Pritchett & Associate 5207 McKinney Ave. Dallas, Texas 75206 RE: Park West Commerce Center- Landscaping, Irrigation and Grading Plan Dear Mr. Pritchett: We have reviewed the above referenced plans, as you requested on October 24, 1989. Since the initial work on this project has already taken place, we have also conducted several site investigations and have the following comments. The existing Parkway width on the west side of Beltline Rd. is fourteen (14) feet. Your plans show only ten (10) feet of parkway. Please make appropriate corrections (see attached copy from Beltline Rd. Improvement plans). The slopes on the berm and street parkways must be in compliance to the City of Coppell's standards (i.e. 4:1 slope or less). Also it appears that the steeper slope starts closer to the curb line on Beltline Road than shown on the plan. Sufficient sight distance is required at existing roadway intersections and any proposed driveway(s) and/or roadways, in compliance with Coppell's Subdivision Ordinance. As requested attached please find a copy of a typical sight distance requirement used by the City of Dallas for your use. As a part of the formal planning and zoning process, we are presently reviewing the preliminary plans on the entire Park West Commerce Center project and encourage coordination between these two projects, especially regarding drainage design and any other engineering matters. Per our site visits, it appears that the existing berm along Beltline is placed where the future sidewalk should be installed (see attached drawing from our Beltline Rd. Improvement plans). Page 2 of 2 Ail utilities such as water, sewer, traffic boxes, and devices, etc. must be operable and accessible at all times. Attached please find one set of mark up plans, reviewed by Public Works staff, plus a copy of the written comments from Howard Pafford. Please make corrections and provide us with two revised sets of plans. Please note that Mr. Diano, Park Superintendent is presently reviewing your landscaping plans in detail and we will contact you. It is our understanding that the Building Inspections Department has only permitted the irrigation system and not the berm and grading. Any work activity within the public roadways requires a permit issued by the Public Works Department, Street and Drainage Division. As you and Shohre Daneshmand discussed, you will review these comments and provide us with your response. We will set up a meeting at your convenience with all affected parties regarding this project and work with you toward plan approval and issuance of the permit. If you have any questions, please contact Shohre Daneskmand at (214) 462-8495.
