This site is impacted by the City of Coppell Hike & Bike Trail Master Plan along the
southern border of the property. The Denton Creek Greenwalk Trail runs along the
property east to west. A maximum 20' trail easement is required.
The City has worked with Vista Properties in the past to have the developer build the
trail along the top of the Denton Creek levee, with levee district approvaL It is
requested the existing trail be continued to the west in lieu of the corresponding park
development fees.
The property noted as "open space to offset park fee" will not be accepted in lieu of
park fees unless a desirable agreement can be negotiated for this property. The Leisure
Services Department will hesitate to recommend acquisition of propert~ which does
not have desirable recreational value. This property is currently being evaluated by the
Leisure Services Department.
Should there be any questions by committee members or representatives of the proposed
development regarding these comments, please feel free to contact Brad Reid at 304 -
3561.
