HISTORY: Preliminary plat for entire development approved in July of 1995.
TRANSPORTATION: State Highway 121 is a AA, four-lane divided to be built in a

Item 10
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - City of Grapevine
South - City of Grapevine
East Vacant; PD (Light Industrial) zoning
West - City of Grapevine
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This property was not included in the 1987 Comprehensive
Plan. The current update will show the land as suitable for
business park development.
DISCUSSION: This plat was prepared for approval by both the City of Grapevine and the
City of Coppell. The majority of the road right-of-way dedication occurs
in Grapevine at a width which meets that City's requirements. The
portion within Coppell provides a 140'-diameter turnaround and capability
of extension offsite to the northwest across Denton Creek.
The name of the plat duplicates that of a final plat approved by the
Coppell City Council in 1985 (right-of-way dedication just north of 1-635).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Final Plat to be recorded as
DFW Trade Center - Freeport Parkway Right-of-Way.
