Keith,
We heard of this project from TxDOT. TxDOT has been thinking of making
improvements to the I.H. 635 at Royal Lane interchange for some time so
they may have some comments of their own. I'll let you know if I hear
anything from TxDOT on this.

Tiffini et al,
Thank you very much for the prompt reply
Approval of private driveway connections to public streets is a simple
administrative function at the City of Irving. I shall work with Keith
Marvin at the City of Coppell to ensure that all points of access are
reviewed and approved as a system and not individually by City. Of
course, that is obvious as applied to the driveway access at the old
Cotton Road intersection approach.
Have a good evening.

The City of Coppell Engineering Department is aware of this project. We
have reviewed the developer's plans and have placed the project on hold
until such time as they have secured the right to use the property
outside our city.

Jim:
A portion of the proposed entrance does impact the portion of Royal Lane
in Irving (as divided by Cotton Road). I will have the developer
contact you to provide plans that show the proposed entrance for the
development. The plans have not been sent to permitting at the City of
Coppell yet which may explain why Keith Marvin was not aware of the
proposed project. Keith can contact Marcie Diamond, Director of
Planning at the City of Coppell to receive the most recent plans, plat,
etc.
It is my understanding that there has always been an access point at
Cotton Road which should not pose a problem for this development. I am
sure that the developer is aware that both cities will exercise access
control for the property; therefore, I will have the developer contact
you immediately. Could you let me know what your approval process
entails regarding the access off Royal Lane for this development after
you review the plans. Will it require council approval or can this be
done at the staff level since a small portion of Royal Lane is Irving is
affected by this?

Please let me know if additional assistance is needed or if you do not
receive a call within the next few days from a Victron Stores
representative to discuss this access issue with you.
Please feel free to contact me if you should have any additional
questions regarding the project.

Subject: Proposed Convenience Store with Gasoline Sales
Development - SEC I.H. 635 EB Entrance Ramp at Royal Lane
Robert and Tiffini,
The City of Irving has been alerted by TxDOT that a plan has
been submitted for access to Royal Lane for a proposed convenience store
with retail gasoline sales to be located on DFW Airport (City of Dallas)
property at the southeast corner of the freeway interchange of Royal
Lane with the eastbound entrance ramp of I. H. 635.
The property, while owned by the City of Dallas and under
control of DFW Airport and, therefore, not subject to zoning,
permitting, nor inspection by the City of Irving nor City of Coppell,
will require access to Royal Lane for which the City of Irving and City
of Coppell retain ownership and control. The City limit line between
Keit Mar vin - RE: Proposed C Store with G Sale D evelop ment- SEC I.H. 63 5 E Entrance R amp at RoPa 4
Irving and Coppell runs down the centerline of Cotton Road, therefore,
the property is in both cities and its access is likely to require the
approval of both cities.
The plan presented to TxDOT shows an driveway access using the
existing approach of abandoned Cotton Road (which still, physically,
exists). This will involve both cities in the approval and permitting
of this one connection to Royal Lane. Any other connection would
involve one city or the other. As you know, TxDOT will not allow any
driveway connections to a freeway mainlane ramp.
Before proceeding significantly further with your review of this
project, please contact me and Keith Marvin at the City of Coppell for
the city reviews of the access(es).
Thanks! Have a good day.
