HISTORY: The site plan and final plat for the Coppell Justice Center was

which permitted the construction of a 47 space parking lot to be
jointly used by the Coppell Justice Center and the YMCA.
TRANSPORTATION: Town Center Boulevard has 28'-wide pavement within a variable
right-of-way. Adjacent to the Coppell Justice Center, there is 37
feet of right-of-way.

Item # 11
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
Public and Institutional uses.
DISCUSSION: This request is to amend the existing site plan to allow
expansion of the Coppell Justice Center. As indicated on
the site plan, the existing 443 square foot covered patio
area will be removed and replaced with a 773 square foot
enclosed building. This expansion area will house the
Judges Chambers, and offices for the Court Director and
Administrative Secretary. Also planned is a new covered
patio to be located to the south of the expansion area,
which is proposed to contain 743 square feet. This
expansion does not have a significant impact on the site
conditions, and no existing landscaping or parking will be
effected by this expansion. There will be sufficient
parking to accommodate this addition utilizing the newly
constructed parking lot which is shared with the YMCA.
Finally, a new concrete sidewalk will be constructed from
the patio area to the northern portion of the building.
The building materials on this expansion will match the
existing building, including "Doeskin" color brick along
the top of the building, and "Twilight Pink" along the
remainder of the building. The steel will be painted
"Hemlock Green", again to match the existing color
scheme.
Given that these additions to the building do not impact
the landscaping, parking or circulation of the existing
facility and that the building materials are the same as the
existing building, staff is in support of this request.
On June 5, 2001 staff discussed this project with Harry
M. Hargrave of the Town Center Architectural Control
Committee. Given the lack of visual impact that this will
have within Town Center, Mr. Hargrave waived the
review of these plans.
