Item #4
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows this property suitable for
park/open space.
DISCUSSION: This plat submittal is the f'mal processing procedure which must be
followed before the Aquatic Center can obtain a certificate of occupancy
and open for business--a total process that has taken over 4 years from
concept plan to where we are today. Although the grand opening of the
Center is scheduled for July 4, and detail work continues as we evaluate
this submittal, the Final Plat must be reviewed, approved, and filed for
record with the County before the citizens of Coppell can enjoy the
facility. We have few substantive comments to make as the engineer has
worked with the City to resolve any problem areas.
To review the Center, it consists of a 37,800 square foot aquatic facility
with lockers, office, indoor pool, rest rooms, meeting rooms, day care
area, cardiovascular and weight rooms and an indoor track. The outdoor
pool will consist of a 25,000 square foot facility with three separate pools
for lap swimming, diving, and recreational swimming among other
activities. Our review of the request has resulted in only minor
alterations--mostly engineering as mentioned above--and we support the
application.
