COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property

DISCUSSION: This is the companion request to the Site Plan for Lot 3, Block 1 Coppell
121 Office Park. As mentioned in the HISTORY Section, this is the
second lot to be final platted of seven lots that were preliminarily platted
in January of 2004. The Denton/Dallas County line bisects this lot;
therefore, filing will be required in both counties.
There are several existing easements and four to be dedicated by this plat.
There is an existing 10' Coserv (electric) easement adjacent to the
northern property line, a 20' TUEC &Coserv (electric) easement abutting
the S.H. 121 right-of--way and a 40' drainage easement on the southeastern
section of the lot. Directly to the north of the 40' drainage easement is an
existing 20' utility easement proposed to be extended to the west. An
existing 20' utility easement on the north side of the building is also
proposed to be extended to the west. Finally, a 20' drainage easement,
located within the front yard parking area, and a 24' fire lane and mutual
access easement, encircling the building and providing a connection
between the adjacent lots, are proposed. As with the Site Plan request,
there are only minor technical items to be addressed, and these are
outlined below in the conditions of approval.

painted anoff--white color. Dark navy blue awnings are proposed above
each window. A monument sign is shown on the Site Plan with details
shown on the elevations. It will need to be reduced in size to 4'x10' per
the Zoning Ordinance, as this lot is less than two acres in area. It is
suggested that this sign be perpendicular to the frontage road to provide
greater visibility, but this is not a requirement of the Ordinance. Also
shown on the elevations is the six foot solid masonry wall. It has columns
shown every 10' and will match that on the adjacent property to the east.
There are only minor technical items remaining, and these are outlined
below within the conditions of approval.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request, subject to the following conditions:
1) Revise the Landscape Plan to show six trees required along the
northern property line (one tree per 40').
2) Reduce the size of the proposed monument sign to 4'x10' and consider
placing it perpendicular to the street.
3) Compliance with the Fire Department comments shown on the
attached departmental comment sheet.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3) Recommend modification of the request
