RE: Eckerd. Preliminary_ Plat and Site Plan
Dear Madam/Sir:
This letter is to inform you that the Eckerd. Site Plan and Preliminary Plat, to allow the development of an
11,200 square foot retail building on 1.52 acres of property located at the southeast comer of Denton Tap
Road and Parkway Boulevard, were recommended for approval by the Coppell Planning and Zoning
Commission on Thursday, June 18, 1998. The Site Plan approval is subject to the following conditions:
1) The construction of two walls symmetrically placed on each side of Town Center Boulevard
identifying Town Center in the same architectural style of the existing wall to the north of the
proposed site which will be tom down. No tenant signage on either wall. This wall design will
need to be provided before consideration by City Council on July 14th.
2) Matching of the brick on the building with that on the existing decorative wall.
3) Redesign of the proposed screen wall on the east side of the property to match the style of the
existing decorative wall.
4) Restriction of all sign lettering to white or neutral colors.
5) Removal of the "Food Mart" sign from the south face of the building (since it duplicates the sign
on the west face).
6) An increase in the amount of landscaping adjacent to the northeast comer of the building to
lessen the visual impact of the blank wall of the building.
7) Screening of mechanical equipment, undergrounding of any additional electric facilities, and
placement of utility meters in inconspicuous locations.
8) If the back of the gables is visible from ground level, they will be bricked to match the building.
The Preliminary Plat was recommended for approved without conditions.
The date scheduled for consideration by the Coppell City Council is Tuesday, July 14, 1998, at 7:30 p.m. A
representative for this case must be present at this meeting. Failure to represent this item may result in the
denial of this application. City Council has iustmcted staff to include in its agenda packets only those items
