PD161-DR 970424 City of Coppell
Development Review Committee Comments
Planning Department
PD-161, STRATFORD MANOR,
A ZONING CHANGE FROM "A"(AGRICULTURE) TO
"PD-SF-12"(PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, SINGLE-
FAMILY 12)
DRC Date: April 24, 1997
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting: May 15, 1997
City Council Meeting: June 10, 1997
There is little point in having a 600' maximum cul-de-sac length in the subdivision
ordinance, if the City changes the requirement to satisfy the desires of every applicant who
wants the requirement changed. Either it is a good standard or it isn't. There is nothing
exceptional about this development to warrant a waiver.
The tree preservation plan shows that a strip of trees will be preserved along the east and
west sides of the subdivision. The best plan for tree protection would be to provide a
common area along each side of the development.
A reminder that the applicant will be responsible for obtaining a zoning change request
sign from the Planning Department and placing the sign on the property 10 days prior to
the Planning Commission hearing. There is a $100.00 deposit fee for the sign. (Fill out
attached form and return to the Planning Department no later than Friday, May 2, 1997.)
