It is anticipated that such buildings will be customarily serviced by trucks as an incidental, rather than a principal driveway use. Industrial plant driveways whose principal function is to serve administrative or employee parking lots shall also be considered commercial driveways. C. An "industrial driveway" shall mean one directly serving substantial numbers of truck movements to and from loading docks of an industrial facility, warehouse or truck ternunal. A centralized retail development, such as a community or regional shopping center, may have one or more driveways specially designed, signed and located to provide access for trucks and such driveways shall be considered industrial driveways. Page 71 D RE ATI N - ITY F PPEL APPENDIX ~ - DE~«IGN ~RI~TERIA AND STA~,~DA~]S ~E~ N I - STREETS AL , DRIVEWAY WIDTH As the term is used here, the width of a driveway refers t4 the width of pavement at the property line. Driveways of the residential type shall be permitted only onto secondary and residential streets. All access to residential property abutting major thoroughfares shall be vff the alley. DRIVEWAY RADIUS All driveways intersecting dedicated streets shall be built with a circular curb radius connecting the siac-inch raised curb of the roadway to the design width pavement of the driveway. Driveways shall be located far enough from the interior property line to permit the curb radius to fall entirely in front of the subject property. The City Engineer shall approve the driveway widths and driveway radius at the time of site plan review previous to issuance of any building permit. In order that the definition of the location of the edge of pavement for the thoroughfare maybe maintained, driveway radii shall always be designed to became tangent to the street curb line. 'I~vo-way driveways shall always be designed to intersect the street at a 9U-degree angle. One-way driveways may be designed to intersect a street at a minimum 45-degree angle. DRIVEWAY SPACING AND LOCATION The spacing and location of driveways shall be related to adjacent driveways and nearby street intersecrions. The spacing between driveways shall be dependent upon the speed limit of the thoroughfare and is as follows: see Figure A-3} Speed Limit (mph) zo zs ~0 35 ~ 4s sa Driveway Spacing "D" ~ft~ 45' ~5' 94' l4~' lz0' 15~' za0' Minimum spacing shall not be more than ten feet less than the recommended spacings shown above. Spacing between driveways will be measured along the property line from the edge of one driveway to the closest edge of the next driveway and not from centerline to centerline. Circular driveways that serve residential homes will be reviewed and approved on a case by case basis by the City Engineer or his designated agent. At intersections with no free right-turn lane, the minimum distance A, Figure A-3, of a driveway from the intersection of major arterial thoroughfares shall be fifty feet and the minimum distance A, Figure A-3, of a driveway from the intersecrion of minor arterial, collector and local thoroughfares shall be thirty feet. General requirements for driveway design are shown in Figure A-3. A summary of driveway width, ,~ radius and angle requirements is given in Table A-5.

This section is adopted to provide recreational areas in the form of neighborhood parks as a function of subdivision development in the City of Coppell. The City Council finds that recreational areas in the form of neighborhood parks are necessary and in the public welfare, and that the only adequate procedure to provide for same is by integrating such a requirement into the procedure for planning and developing property or subdivisions in the City. B. Neighborhood parks are those parks providing for a variety of outdoor recreational opportunities and within convenient distances from a majority of the residences to be served thereby. The park zones established by the Parks and Recreation Department and shown an the official Parks, Recrea~on and open Space Master Plan for the city of Coppell shall be prima facie proof that any park located therein is within such a convenient distance from any residence located therein. The primary cost of neighborhood parks should be borne by the ultimate residential property owners who, by reason of the proximity of their property to such parks, shall be the primary beneficiaries of such facilities. Therefore, the following requirements are adopted to effect the purposes stated: 1. General Requirement Residentially Zoned Property. whenever a final plat is filed of record with the County Clerk of the county in which the property lies for development of a residential area in accordance with the planning and zoning regulations of the City, such plat shall captain a clear fee simple dedication of an area of land to the City for park purposes, which area shall be equal to one acre for each 1~ proposed dwelling units. For purposes of this section, a dwelling unit is one or more roams designed or used as separate living quarters for an individual family, including those which are classified as part of amulti-family structure. Any proposed plat submitted to the City for approval shall show the area proposed to be dedicated under this section, The required dedication by this subsection may be met by a paymdnt of money in lieu of land when permitted or required by the other provisions of this section. 2. The City Council declares that development of an area smaller than one (1} acre for public parks purposes is impractical. Therefore, if fewer than 1Da units are proposed by a plat filed for approval, the Developer shall be required to pay cash in lieu of dedication of land. No plat showing a dedication of less than one acre of park land shall be approved. Page 99 SIJBDIVI5IC3N RE~ULATIQNS -CITY ~F ~~PPELL.

In instances where an area of less than five ores is required to be dedicated, the City Council shall have the right to accept the dedication by approval of the final plat, or refuse same, and to require payment of cash in lieu of land in the amount provided in subsection D, if the City Council determines that sufficient park area is already in the public domain in the area of the proposed development, or if the recreation potential for that zone would be better served by expanding or improving existing parks. The City Council may from time to time request the review of the Parks and Recreation Board regarding the dedication of park land ar cash in lieu of such dedication. 4, The dedication required by this section shall be made by filing of the final plat or contemporaneously by separate instrument, unless additional dedication is required subsequent to the filing of the final plat. If the actual number of completed dwelling units exceeds the figure upon which the original dedication was based, additional dedication shall be required, and shall be made by payment of cash in lieu of land amount provided by subsection D, or by the conveyance of an entire numbered lot to the City. C. Friar Dedication; Absence of Prior Dedication .~.. 1. Credit shall be given for land andlor money dedicated prior to the enactment of this ordinance. 2. If a dedication requirement arose prior to passage of this section, that dedication requirement shall be controlled by the ordinance in effect at the time such application arose, except that additional dedication shall be required if the actual density of structures constructed upon property is greater than the former assumed density. Additional dedication shall be required only far the increase in density and shad be based upon the ratio set forth in Section B. 3. At the discretion of the City Council, any former gift of land to the City may be credited on a per acre basis toward eventual land dedication requirements imposed an the donor of such lands. The City Council shall consider the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Board in exercising its discretion under this subsection. D. Money in Lieu of Land l , Subject to veto of the City Council, a landowner responsible far dedication under this section may elect to meet the requirements of section B, in whole or in part, by a cash payment in lieu of land, in the amount set forth in D•3. Such payment in lieu of land shall be made at or prior to the time of final plat approval. Page loo D I RE ATI N - F PPELL AFP - D I N T .~. ~EC'I'I~N VII ~ „PARKS 2. The City may from time to time decide to purchase land for parks in or near the area of actual or potential development. If the City does purchase park land in a park zone, subsequent park land dedication far that zone shall be in cash only and calculated to reimburse the City's actual cost of acquisi~on and development of such land for parks. The cash amount shall be equal to the sum of the average price per acre of such land, and the actual cast of adjacent streets and on-site utilities, or an estimate of such actual costs provided by the City Engineer. once the City has been reimbursed entirely for all such park land within a park zone, this subsequent subsection shall cease to apply, and the other subsections of this section shall again be applicable. 3. To the extent D-2 is not applicable, the dedication requirement shall be met by a payment in lieu of land, at a per acre price set from time to time, by a resolution or ordinance of the City Council, sufficient to acquire land and provide for adjacent streets and utilities for a neighborhood park to serve the park zone in which such development is located. Unless changed by the City Council, such per-acre price shall be computed on the basis of one Thousand Two Hundred Eighty-Five and No11~0 Dollars ~$1,~$5.~} per dwelling unit. Cash payments may be used only far acquisition ar improvement of a neighborhood park located within the same zone as the development, E. Plan Considerations Land shown an the Park and Recreation Master Plan as being suitable for development of the City far a major recreational center, school site, park ar other public use, shall be reserved for a period of one ~ 1 ~ year after the preliminary plat is approved by the City if within two ~2~ months after such approval the City Council advises the subdivider of its desire to acquire the land ar of the interest of another governmental unit to acquire the land, for purchase by the interested governmental authority at land appraisal value at the Mme of purchase. A failure by the City Council to so notify the subdivider shall constitute a waiver of the right to reserve the land. Any waiver of the right to reserve the land shall no longer be effective if the preliminary plat shall expire without adoption of a f nal plat. F. special Fund: Right to Refund 1. There is hereby established a special fund for the deposit of all Sums paid in lieu of land dedication under this section or any preceding ordinance, which fund shall be known as the Park Land Dedication Fund. Page 101 S D ION RE ATI N - TTY F C PPELL TEXA APPENDIX -DESIGN CRITERIA AND TAND SECTION '~'1T - ARKS 2. The City shall account far all sums paid in lieu of land dedication under this section with reference to the individual plats involved. Any funds paid for such purposes must be expended by the City within ten ~ 10} years of the date received by the City for acquisition or development of a neighborhood park as defined herein. Such fund shall be considered to be spent on a first in, first out basis. If not so expended, the owners of the property an the last date of such period shall be entitled to a prorata refund of such sum, including all interest accrued. The owners of such property must request such refund within one ~ 1} year of entitlement, in writing, ar such right shall be barred. G. Additional Requirements; Definitions ~ . Any land dedicated to the City under this section must be suitable far park and recreation uses. The following characteristics of a proposed area are generally unsuitable: ~a} Any area primarily located in the 10(1-year flood plain, ~} Any areas of unusual topography or slope which render them unusable ~` for organized recreational activities, ~c} Any area encumbered by overhead utility lines or easements of any type which would limit the opportunity for recreational and park development. The above characteristics of a park land dedication area may be grounds for refusal of any preliminary plat. 2. Drainage areas may be accepted as part of a park if the channel is constructed in accordance with City Engineering standards, and if no significant area of the park is cut off by access to such channel. 3. Each park must have ready access to public streets. 4. Unless provided otherwise herein, an ac~on by the City shall be by the City Council.

E TI N I ~ INTR D z. ~o~ucTloN The Coppell S treetscape Plan has been developed to provide standards for streetscape improvements which will occur within the City of Coppell, Texas. This document serve as a guide for both public and private improvements that occur in and adjacent o thoroughfare rights-of way. By coordinating and guiding these efforts with a streetscape plan, the public image of Coppell will be enhanced and strengthened. The major issues in design focus on unifying the street image zones and edges, creating identifiable City entry points, and emphasizing major and secondary intersections. The term streetscape was developed in recent years by landscape architects and urban designers to describe the image of a city street and the elements that compose that image. Just as many elements make up a total landscape or a city's physical infrastructure, the same occurs in the streetscape. overhead power lines, traffic signals, signs, light fixtures, plant materials and street pavings are same of the most noticeable physical elements that are found in the street scene. This scene is also framed and highlighted by the physical farms and character of adjacent developments, A less tangible element of the streetscape is the manner and length of time in which it is observed. The motorist traveling at higher speeds sees and comprehends only an overall image, but stopping at intersections allows for Glaser observation, Pedestrians travel at a much slower rate and are able to experience a greater range of relationships and detail. However, pedestrians still must contend with the dangers of entering and using a vehicular space. Both the pedestrian and automobile should be accommodated in the street scene. Coppell's streetscape form is evolving from that of a rural community to one of a dynamic business center and residential haven. The impetus to guide this changing form has resulted from the desire to improve and update the image of the city as a complement to the new development that is occurring. The City of Coppell is changing at a rapid pace; the public infrastructure must also change to accommodate this growth, and thereby lies the opportunity far a coordinated streetscape that will enhance the image of Coppell. The streetscape planning process has involved a variety of City officials in both public and private meetings, as well as numerous meetings with development companies that have projects in Coppell. Throughout the process, the overall goals of unifying the streetscape and expressing a quality image have guided the plan's development. Additional goals and objectives were established, which then led to the analysis of existing constraints and opportunities, The goals and analysis phase provided a strong base for the development of design concepts. The major issues in design have focused on unifying the street image zones and edges, creating identifiable City entry points, and emphasizing major and secondary intersections, Page 147 I N RE ATI N - Tl'Y F PPELL APPENDIX D - STREETSCAPE PLAN .~ ~,,F„~T_IoN I - Il~TRODU~TI~N The text and drawings which follow are intended to convey the design concepts that were developed for Coppell's streetscape.

LANDSCAPE CONSTRAINTS (Figure 1) Most of what currently exists as elements in the street scene can be considered a constraint on landscapelstreetscape improvements. overhead utilities clutter streets to a varying degree, with the T.U. Electric lines being major visual intrusions. City signage and entry markers are uncoordinated. Entries into the City are not stzongly designated and the signage is too small to be effective. Several hard edges exist due to high volume thoroughfares or railroad right-of~way. State Highway l2l and I.H. 635 create municipal edges that are noisy and often visually unappealing. The St. Louis-Southwestern Railroad becomes a visual and physical barrier along Belt Line Road due to the elevated tracks. The chain link fence along Belt Line for the power plant is also visually unappealing. Existing land use condi~ons in the City provide another level of constraint. Large parcels of Coppell still remain undeveloped and are used far farming ar grazing. The edges of these parcels have no unifying landscape treatment and are often hard to distinguish from the existing park edges. Industrial districts being developed along Belt Line Road will need some type of landscape treatment to soften their edges. Some of the existing screening walls for subdivisions along Sandy Lake Road and Denton Tap Road have become unsightly due to poor maintenance and little or no landscaping. Future residential developments will have major impacts on the character of existing thoroughfares unless they are properly screened and landscaped. Existing culvert treatment is not unified, is often unsightly and is difficult to mow. Drainage easements have been ignored in terms of their open space and landscaping potentials.

LANDSCAPE OPFORTiJNITIES (Figure 2) Significant opportunities exist to enhance the streetscape aesthefics. Divided thoroughfares in Coppell will provide the opportunity far medians, unified landscape treatment in planting zones, sidewalks, and a redesign of major intersections. These thoroughfares will serve as major image zones far Cappell and present a cohesive streetscape image. These image zones will convey the real image of the city to its users and they must be given a high priority. ether thoroughfares, as they are upgraded, will present similar opportunities far the implementation of streetscape guidelines. New thoroughfares mean that new intersections can be designed, Major and secondary intersections should be identified and treated with a variety of elements -special paving and crosswalks, landscaping, new signage, new lighting and traffic signal standards, etc. The opportunity for new street hardware in maj ar image zones and the public right-of~ way is significant, New signage, lighting and traffic signals will do much tQ unify the streetscape and provide cohesiveness. The new hardware should be of a simple design so it will not be an obtrusive design element, but an organizing backdrop. All the entrances into the City of Coppell need a strong definition. Currently, na major natural features or design elements exist that can be disrupted, so there is ample opportunity for the creation of major entry points through landscaping, paving, and monument signage. The existing edge of North Lake and its park offers a goad opportunity to reinforce a natural design element. Similarly, creeks and flaadplains could add to the streetscape program as identified in the City of Coppell Park, Recreation and open Space Master Plan. The open space surrounding the DP&L Power Plant provides an interesting setting for the industrial architecture of the plant, The fields could be seeded with wildflowers to create seasonal color, Many of the ongoing and proposed land developments will provide substantial landscape plans that will add to the proposed streetscape plans. Many of the developers are choosing similar paving and landscape treatments.

DESIGN colvcEPTS A. The key design concepts for the streetscape improvements in the City of Coppell are as follows: 1. Unity - to create a sense of cohesiveness throughout the City that links many various projects and unifies the City's public thoroughfares. 2. Identify - tQ create a quality image of Coppell and a sense of arrival when one enters the City's boundaries and travels its thoroughfares. 3. Simplicity - to provide designs that are simple, yet aesthetically pleasing, and that have then own character but will not overpower existing or future development. These three concepts are to be applied in Coppell to the four major determinants of the City's form and public image; the thoroughfares, intersections, edges and entry paints. A range of streetscape elements are used in the design concepts for each major determinant, and will be discussed in each section and illustrated graphically. ENII ~F SECTION Page 113 DIET I N RE ATI F PPELL TE APPENDIX,,,,D~TREETSCAPE PLAN E TI N VT - TREET APE DE'~E N VI. STREETSCAPE DEVELOPMENT CONCEPTS It is important to recognize that the streetscape scene is the most prominent public landscape image in the community. Thoroughfares are travelled daily; subtle interest and change is created for the motorist through the choice of plant materials which provide seasonal changes in color and texture. Plant materials, on any given thoroughfare can change to accent different land uses along the street. A variety of visual images in the streetscape can be created this way, while an overall planting theme can create a sense of continuity to the street, The framework for Coppell utilizes the techniques of accent planting for variety and color accent, and a dominant street tree that establishes a sense of cohesiveness throughout the City. Cedar Elms have been chosen as the dominant and unifying street tree, with a range of accent trees used for seasonal color and variety see Table 1 for Plant Palette}. Primary and secondary city image zones have been established for their maximum visibility and use, and these zones are priority areas for establishing the streetscape plan. The Cedar Elms should be placed in random groupings in the median and landscape edge adjacent to the thoroughfare; the spacing should not be of a formal consistency, but one where the edge plantings are staggered with the median plantings. A minimum of forty percent ~4~%} of street trees should be Cedar Elms. The accent trees selected are ones that are native to Texas, such as Crape Myrtle, Redbud and V~ild ~`~ Plum. Even though informal plantings of trees are encourage, formal groupings maybe appropriate far certain situations. ~ Other elements of the landscape edge and medians will be discussed later. Typically, sidewalks will be located one foot from the right-of way line to allow for all utilities, signage, and streetscape hardware. The planting zone will occur in a l5 foot strip in the required front yard adjacent to the right-of way line in primary image zones, and in a 10 foot strip in secondary image zones. No parking will be allowed in this zone Figure 13}. while trees are utilized to achieve a mare unified appearance on the city's thoroughfares, the major entry points and intersections will be key places for providing special identity. Both will rely on special paving and landscaping to create identity, and the entry points will contain special monument signage. Edges will also receive special landscape considerations depending on the adjacent land use and development. A. Thoroughfare Design Major thoroughfares in Coppell have been designated as Primary City Image Zones and Secondary City Image Zones Figure ~} based on their intensity of use and proposed status in the Thoroughfare Plan. These zones should be tap priority for initial streetscape treatment. Page 114 DIVI~IC~N,_,.RE,IL_A~,~ - IT;Y ~F C~PPELL,_,,,.TE7~A,~ APPENDT~ 1~ - TREET APE PL ~,,,.

Cedar Elms will be the dominant street tree in the median and edges, accented with Redbud and Wild Plum and accent overstory trees of Sweet Gum or Chinese Pistache. Median noses at left turn lanes will be covered with interlocking pavers interspersed by I S" Juniper planting beds. Crape Myrtles above Honeysuckle planting beds will also accent each end of the Median Figure 3~. Secondary Zone thoroughfares will have a similar landscape scheme, but medians are not a necessity and the roads should be only of a four lane capacity. If a median is used, Bradford Pear will be the accent tree instead of Crape Myrtle and Liriope will be used for ground cover below the Bradford Pears. Each median for Primary and Secondary Zones will also be accented by Pampas Grass in the transition zone. Pedestrianlbike path crossings at streets will be defined by red concrete pavers. B. Intersection Design Intersection designs have been developed far three types of intersections: major, secondary and minor. These three types are identified and located on the Landscape opportunities map Figure 2~. Major intersections should receive top priority in terms of streetscape implementation, The design of major and secondary intersec~ons should have consistent landscape elements to include a 12" high planting bed for annual and perennial flowers, background plantings of pink and white Crape Myrtles to highlight the bed, and accent overstory trees of Sweet Gum and Chinese Pistache. Crosswalks 15 feet wide shall be constructed in red interlocking concrete pavers with light gray concrete pavers delineating the edges of the crosswalks, The pavers will also be used an the corners where pedestrians will be standing. The center of major intersections should be highlighted by a dark gray concrete paver tFigure 4A} if engineering proves practical. The third level of intersection design is used to def ne minor intersections. Crosswalks are eight feet wide and shall be constructed in the concrete pavers with no edge banding. Punting beds are not utiliaed and no special landscaping is required Figure 5}.

Edge Design Different land use functions will occur along each thoroughfare creating a variety of physical edges. It is recommended that each of these land use groups be identified by a special landscape theme that will add variety to the streetscape. The land use edges and their respective plantings are as follows: 1. RetaillEntertainment -Crape Myrtles should be grouped at entrance and exit openings tQ help define them and 30 inch high evergreen shrubs should be used to shield parked cars, yet allow visibility to storefronts. 2. Industrial -Live Gales should be used to soften the edge and provide year round screening. 3. Office -Bald Cypress should be used to help create identity and provide seasonal color. 4. Residential -Red Gales and Bur Gales should be used to establish a sense of permanence and character while providing seasonal color. Please refer to the typical edge treatments in Figures 3, 6A & 6B. The landscape .~ treatments are to be combined with, and not replace, the dominant Cedar Elm street tree plantings. Several existing edges have existing unique streetscape characteristics that need to be enhanced and addressed individually. In each case, Cedar Elms should be planted to provide for continuity of design, Bill Ln~lNorth Lake Edge -The existing park and lake edge should be enhanced by random groupings of Bald Cypress for seasonal color and Pampass Grass to allow views out to the lake. Existing Cattails at the lake's share should be preserved, as well as the Mesquite trees in the park. Sidewall~s should be constructed in a serpentine path that reflects the lake's irregular shoreline Figure ?~. 1 Lin /P w r Pl -The park like grounds surrounding the power plant should be enhanced by screening the existing chain link fence with flowering vines for seasonal color. wild Honeysuckle should be the dominant vine with other accent vines giving additional color, wildflowers should be seeded on the power plant grounds for color, while Pecan Trees planted along Belt Line Road could enframe vistas to the grounds and the power plant itself Figure 7~. 1 Lin 1 i - u hw rn R 'lr -The elevated railroad tracks and trestle located along the northeastern section of Belt Line Road creates a visual and physical edge. The edge should be improved by planting Pecan Trees on the north Page 116 DIVISI N RE ATI N -CI'T'Y F PPELL APPENDIX D - STREETSCAP~ PLAN E TIN - ET APE DEVE P N side of Belt Line in order to screen the elevated track and the berm. The wooden trestles should be left exposed as sculptural elements. However, Flame Leaf Sumac should be planted an the sloped grade by the trestle for color, and Cattails should be planted in the mud flats under the trestle for year round concealment Figure S}. D ' na m n -The existing drainage easement should be converted into a linear park with the fallowing landscape treatments; Cedar Elm plantings along Sandy Lake; Bald Cypress planted through the central portion of the drainage easement but out of the water channel, so as not to impede water flow; the edges of the easement adjacent to residential uses planted with Red Gaks and Bur yaks as suggested above. The drainage spillways masked with concrete pavers or stone to soften their appearance. Sidewalks of a serpentine nature will suggest a more park like atmosphere (Figure $}. D. Entry Point Design The identity of Coppell can be further defined by creating entry paint features at the major and secondary entrances into the City. Ultimately, there should be eight major entry points into the City occurring at the following municipal boundary lines: Belt Line Road (south) --~ MacArthur Blvd. (south) Belt Line Road (east) Sandy Lake Road (east) MacArthur Blvd. (north) Denton Tap Road (north) Thweatt Road (west) Bethel Road (west) Several secondary entry points, such as the proposed Freeport Road at the southern boundary, could also be developed. Entry points are designed to create a sense of amval in the City, bath visually and texturally. For major entry points, a twenty foot band or crosswalk of red concrete pavers should stretch across the street, creating a visual and textural sense of amval. The crosswalk should further be defined by two bands of light gray concrete pavers on both edges. The crosswalks will terminate at two triangular planting beds, one on each side of the street far annuals and perennials Figures 9-11}. A City monument entry sign should be placed behind the planter bed on one of the street sides location depends on boundary line}, Both planter beds are enframed by Crape Myrtles for valor, and Sweet Gums or Chinese Pistache as accent overstory trees. The entry monument is of a traditional design (Figure 12}. Medians at all entry points should receive special treatment in that the nose should be covered with red concrete pavers and a lo' by lo' planting bed. Crape Myrtles should be planted in the median behind the planting bed Figures 9-11}. Secondary entry paints should have a 15' crosswalk with one band of pavers defining each edge. The monument sign should be smaller in scale and a median will probably not be in Page 117 ~UBDIYISION REGULATIONS -CITY OF COP~FL~,~F~A-S PPENDIX D - ~ ~ ~E ~ - AP D YE the thoroughfare. The landscape scheme should be similar to thaw at major entry paints Figure 11~. END OF SECTION Fage ~ ~ SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS -CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS APPENDIR D - STREETSCAPE PLAN SECTION VII -PLANT PALETTE SECTION VII -PLANT PALETTE Table 1 depicts recommended plants appropriate for planting in landscaped setbacks, medians, entries, and at other special street edge conditions in Coppell. The purpose of the plant palette is to indicate hardy plant species which should survive Coppell planting conditions, urbanization, insects and disease -and still provide for a variety of landscaping design appartuni~es. Planting conditions in Coppell are enhanced by the presence of the sandy clay loam sails which are found throughout most of the City. The limiting aspect of the list derives from an intent to bring order and continuity to the planting along the major thoroughfares and to supplement the patterns established by the City, The plants listed reflect both native and introduced species; natives being recommended wherever possible, The Cedar Elm, for example, was selected as the dominant street tree because it is native to the area and an extremely hardy species. The plant palette is not meant to be a complete absolute. If so requested, species not listed can be reviewed for their appropriateness on a case by case basis. If appropriate, the plant may be added to the palette or it may be approved only for one particular project.

These include pavers, street lights, traffic signals, telephonelelectric poles, and traffic signage. Benches and s~eet furniture have not been included in this study. A. Pavers: The City standard paver for use at intersections, City entry points, at developmentlsubdivision entry features and to delineate all pedestrianlbike path crossings of streets is the interlocking paver "Uni-decor" manufactured by Pavestone far its equal}. Antique red shall be the standard color, although dark gray pavers will be used for centers of intersections and a light gray will be used for accent banding. Accent banding will be accomplished using 4" by $" rectangular paver, "Holland Stone" for equal}. All pavers are f 2 112" thick pigmented concrete pavers set on a 1" sand leveling bed. The subbase shall be reinforced concrete paving, unless another material is approved by the City Engineer. Alternate paving materials at subdivisionldevelopment entry shall be acceptable if they are comparable in color, quality and texture to the City standard. B, Street Lights: Research into the possibilities of recommending a traditional fixture to T.U. Electric for use in the street right-of way indicated that the chances far approval by T.U. are extremely slim. Without T.U. approval for a particular fixture, the City would be responsible far providing, maintaining, and financing the electric usage of these non-standard fixtures. The 20' and 30' KIM fixtures, presently required by the City and provided by T.U. , are therefore recommended as the best alternative for public street lighting. Their simple design and dark brown duranodic f nish are compatible with most architectural styles and land use. The more traditional light fixtures would be appropriate far individual projectsldevelopments. The property ownerldeveloper would then be responsible for installing, maintaining and paying for the electric use for these traditional fixtures. C. Traffic Signals; The recommended traffic signal design Figure 1G} was selected to be compatible with the approved City street lights. Both are simple in shape, structurally stable and can be finished in dark brown duranodic or black to match the approved City street sights. D. Telephone and Electric Pales: As evidenced by the Subdivision ordinance, the City intends to limit the presence of telephone, power and television cable along the street edge. Either underground or rear alley access lines are to be established in all developments. Where alley access lines cross side streets, the City Engineer has recommended to T. U. that simply designed metal support poles be used and set back from the street to minimize any view of the poleslwires. It is also recommended that the metal poles be painted to match the finish on the approved City street lights.

Regulatory (Traff c} Signage: The basis for the design concept for regulatory signage is the improvement of its appearance over that of the existing unsightly standard of mounting a sign on a galvanized post. Figures 17 and 18 show the recommended regulatory sign standard for Coppell. The single pale alternative (Figure 17} represents the typical City standard, while the double pole sign is to be used where appropriate along major thoroughfares. In both instances, the poles are to be two (~} inch square steel pasts painted to match the finish an the City street lights. The backs of all signs are to be painted to match the posts. It is also recommended that the street signs in Coppell be redesigned to reflect the desired traditional character of the City. This can be accomplished through the use of a more traditional style of lettering (with a serif} done an a background which matches (but is lighter than} the dark finish an the pole. F. Automobile Screening: One of the key elements of the streetscape design is the visual screening of the fronts of automobiles parked adjacent to the right-of way along primary and secondary image zones, Figure 19 depicts two different alternatives for accomplishing this objective. In bath instances, the primary screening element is a minimum of thirty (30} inches high measured from the bottom of the curb at the front fire of the automobile. Precast panels covered with ivy, brick walls, and grass covered earth berms are all acceptable screening alternatives. G. Screening Walls: Ali required screening wails along primary and secondary image zones are to be constructed of brick; the height shall be no less than six (6} feet nor more than eight (8} feet in height, and all walls shall be constructed with a structural concrete foundation. As depicted in Figure 20, the wall shall be detailed so that columns are expressed typically at thirty (3~} feet on centers. The texture ar plane of the brick shall be changed at the top of the wall to provide additional variety, Cast stone can be used at the top as an alternative cap. Ironwork can be incorporated into the design of screening walls as Long as the view beyond is landscaped and is not a view of the rear yards or fences of housing. Sidewalk placement and width may vary to ensure pedestrian safety. A serpentine sidewalk may be appropriate if placement of the walk creates large enough pockets of greenspace far landscaping. Landscaping in the form of shrubs and trees shall be planted between the screening wall and the street so that a minimum of fifteen (15} percent of the wall is obscured by planting. Trees shall be planted at the same minimum density as would be required for non-residential uses. Landscaping shall be planted so as to minimize future conflicts with subsurface utilities. The developer who subdivides the lots adjacent to the wall shall construct the wail and install the landscaping and an acceptable irrigation system. He shall also create the mechanism for an Owners Association to be responsible for maintenance of the wall and landscaping. Page I24 S[TBDIVI~IC~N.

Open Drainageways: Figures 2 l , 22 and 23 depict landscaping concepts to be considered for incorporation into the engineering design of open drainage areas. The primary area of concern relates to those sections of the drainageways which are visible from primary and secondary image zones, within one hundred feet ~l~'} of the R.O.VLI. Key aspects are the installation of an irrigation system in the landscaped portion of the drainageway by the developer and the creation of an Owner's Associarian to assume overall responsibility for maintenance of the landscaping. Trees are required along each side of the drainageway at a minimum density of one for every forty X40} feet of frontage. I. Headwall: Figure 24 depicts a headwall for a culvert along an open drainage swale adjacent to a roadway. 'T'his detail is particularly mare important where curb and guttering will not be installed for several years. The intent is to provide an attractive headwall design over which a mower can be driven or pulled. Stone, brick or concrete pavers are acceptable materials covering the headwall, although the previously mentioned "Uni-decor" concrete pavers antique red} would be the mast desirable alternative. The facing would only be appropriate for permanent headwalls that are visible from primary or secondary image zones within 1~' of the R.O.w.}. The requirements for facings for culverts should apply both to pipe culverts and box culverts. "~ J. Landscape Maintenance: The City of Cappell will be responsible for all median maintenance, all paving maintenance, and the repair of streetscape elements when damaged by City initiated utility work in dedicated easements. Other damage to streetscape elements occurring during utility repairs will be the responsibility of the utility Company. The established Owners Association or individual property owner will be responsible for the maintenance of streetsCape elements in the parkway and the fifteen ~ 15} feet no-parking zone adjacent to the parkway. This will include residential brick screening walls and landscaping in common areas. An Owner's Agreement see attached Exhibit A} shall be approved during the subdivision plat process and filed with the City. ~t formally establishes the Owners Association, deFnes the areas of maintenance and provides the City with the ability to assess the association if maintenance responsibilities are not carried out.

IlVIPLEIVIENTATION Full implementa~on of the streetscape concepts will necessitate cooperation between the public and private sectors, The use of public monies for improvements within the public right-of=way have already been initiated. In areas adjacent to public and semi-public uses such as along North Lake} and in areas of existing development, improvements in the edge adjacent t8 the roadway will have to be carried out by the City. Median landscaping will be the responsibility of the City as will City entry paints and certain elements of the intersection design. The primary thrust of this section, however, relates to implementarion by the private sector in the development of vacant land and the redevelopment of existing properties. Property owners are required to conform to Landscape guidelines prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy ~C. ~.}. This document should not be viewed as a rigid or inflexible set of standards for the City of Coppell. Rather, it should be used as an overall set of guiding principles that allows for flexibility in implementation. The standards set forth in the document are suggested guidelines to ensure quality development in Coppell; variations in materials or design are allowable if they are equal to or greater than the suggested standards in materials and design, and if they have been approved by the Coppell City Engineer and City Staff. ~' Because the power of the Streetscape Plan is tied to Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance revisions, Developers will be able to seek variances to specific situations through existing established appeal procedures.

STREETSCAPE DEVEL[~PMENT C In order to determine the criteria for any particular piece of property, there are five ,steps which the developer and/or designer should go through: Step 1: Locate the property on the Streetscape opportunities map Figure Z). Informatson on this map determines the width of the landscape setback and the density of tree plantings in the setback. Along the primary image zones, the landscape setback requirement is f (teen X15} feet with a minimum density of one tree far every forty X44} feet of frontage, For secondary image zones, the setback is ten X10} feet with a minimum requirement far tree plantings of one tree for every f fty ESQ} feet of frontage. Step 2: Review the general streetscape design concepts for the street edge condi~on as a functlan of land use Figures 7 through 8~ and the relevant design concepts for any adjacent intersections. Step 3: Review the Plant Palette Table 1}. Appropriate species of trees, shrubs and surface plantings for the right-of way and landscaped setback are listed. Step 4: Review the appropriate design concepts in Section VIII -Street ~Iardware and Special ~I,andscape Elements to determine their impact on the property. Step 5: Review the subdivision and zoning ordinances to determine specific landscape design requirements. The criteria for private development is meant to supplement the work being undertaken by the City, yet have sufficient latitude to correspond to the needs of the individual project. Trees may be grouped close to entry points ar accent trees may be used as understary planting, There are many ways to add variety while adhering to the guidelines in this document and the requirements in the Subdivision and honing ordinances.
