PRO.POSED ZONING CHANGE
YOUR RIVERCHASE HOME VALUE MAY BE
in
JEOPARDY!!!
Wbv: Under the auspices of a "Planned Development District," an
application has been submitted to the Coppell Planning and Zoning
Commission to change the zoning of the Riverchase Golf Course
property (approx. 95.5 acres located in the heart of Riverhcasc) from
"Single Family" to "Office."
Past, present, and future legitimate sale of liquor by the Golf Course is
not an issue. While the argument is being made that such a zoning
change (only) facilitates: (1) liquor delivery to the Clubhouse, (2)
provision of a beer cart and (3) a lessening of liquor reporting, such a
zoning change could put uses of this property one or more steps closer to
"permitted uses" that would be very detrimental to our home property
values. Please see the enclosed PERMITTED USES under "Office"
zoning.
What You Can Do: (1) Return the enclosed "Reply" form to the
Commission, preferably having checked the second (opposed) or third
(undecided) reply. (2) Attend the public hearing in support of neighbors
who will be expressing their strong concerns to the Commission about
. this proposed zoning change. You will be free to speak, also, if you so
desire.
