TO: Gary Sieb, Director of Planning
FROM: Travis Crump, Fire Marshal i~
SUBJECT: The Townhouses of Coppell
After meeting with Robert Kruse, Fire Chief and Craig Lemp from The Townhouses of Coppell an
agreement has been reached on the fire lane issues that were unresolved on this project.
Mr. Lemp agreed to provide a Fire Department access easement along the sides and back of the buildings
that do not meet the requirement that all portions of the buildings are to be within 150 feet of a fire lane as
measured along the exterior of the building. These easements will be 15 feet wide along the sides and 10
feet wide along the back of the buildings, There are five buildings that are affected. The buildings are the
second and third building on the North side of the North entrance, the first building on the South s~de of the
North entrance, and the second and third building on the South side of the South entrance.
Should Mr. Letup decide not to provide these easements (which will include a no build requirementl, then
the Fire Department position is that additional fire lanes will be required to be installed m order to meet the
! 50 feet rule.
If you have any questions or need additional intbrmation, please contact me at extension 3503.
Thank you.
Robert Kruse. Fire Chief
