Re: Gateway Business Park - Preliminary Plat and Plans
D.R.C. Review Comments
Dear Ms. Bowman:
Please find enclosed two (2) copies of the above referenced plat and plans revised
per comments from the February 27, 1990 meeting of the Development Review Committee.
We offer the following responses to issues raised by the review comments:
I. Santa Fe Pacific Realty Corporation is committed to "Gateway Boulevard" as
the name for the four lane road through this project. This street name was
approved on the preliminary plat of Park West Commerce Center.
II. Landscaping & Irrigation
A. Landscape Installation
1. The entry feature at the intersection of proposed Gateway
Boulevard and Freeport Parkway and the Landscape feature at
the intersection of proposed Gateway Boulevard and Cotton
Road shall be installed upon completion of the Gateway
Boulevard Construction as shown on the conceptual streetscape
- Phase I plan.
2. The area adjacent to the parkways for Gateway Boulevard and
Freeport Parkway shall receive a berm treatment under the
Phase I Landscaping. No planting materials will be installed
along the parkways (except as noted under 1 above) until
individual building sites are developed. Turf Hydroseeding will
be used to prevent erosion.

3. No trees or shrubs will be allowed within the T.U. Electric
estimate along the west side of Freeport Parkway. We have
requested that T.U. Electric formally submit a letter to this
effect. We have attached a copy of the easement for your
review. Please note that the easement permits T.U. Electric the
right to remove and keep removed any trees or shrubbery that
in T.U. Electric's sole judgement is necessary to prevent
interference with the operation of their facilities.
B. Irrigation
1. Irrigation systems will be designed and installed to meet the City
of Coppell's standards and shall be sufficient to maintain the
planted materials.
2. Phase I irrigation shall be installed at the entrance features on
Gateway Boulevard including the parkway and median adjacent
to the entry.
3. The Phase I bermed areas shall receive minimum irrigation to
maintain a turf cover on the street side of the berm.
4. All areas to be landscaped under future phases shall received
full irrigation systems as described for Item 2 above.
C. Owners Association
1. At this time it is the owners intent to retain ownership of the
property. Building sites will be developed as build to suit or
spec buildings to be leased to individual users on a
tenant/landlord basis.
2. The owner, to protect his interests reserves the right to maintain
all landscaping within public rights-of-way adjoining his property
including medians and parkways.
3. The owner will maintain all landscaped areas retained under his
ownership in accordance with the City of Coppell subdivision
and landscaping ordinances.

D. Freeport Parkway Median Cuts
1. The median cuts shown on the conceptual landscape plans are
preliminary locations only and will be located as required to
meet individual building site requirements.
2. The median cuts will be constructed to the City of Coppell
standards.
III. In regard to the right-of-way width of Gateway Boulevard within 300 feet of
the intersection, a formal request for a revision of the thoroughfare plan has
already been submitted.
IV. The proposed sewer main extension along Cotton Road currently shown on
the plans provides adequate service for part of Block 1 under Santa Fe's land
use plan. The remainder of Block 1 will be served by the proposed sewer
main in Gateway Boulevard.
V. The note regarding the capacity of the existing 12-inch sewer adjacent to this
development is not clear. Please prepare a letter detailing what information
is needed.
VI. Note number 8 on the preliminary paving and drainage plan states that the
temporary ditch will be maintained by the property owner. Separate
instruments will be prepared for required easements outside the limits of the
plat.
The following variances to the Subdivision Ordinance are requested by this letter:
1. The landscaping of parkways shall be completed as the individual lots
are developed.
2. All applicable fees shall be paid by the lot owners as the individual lots
are developed.
3. Although Freeport Parkway is a secondary image zone no trees will be
permitted along the west right-of-way because of the existing overhead
electrical transmission line.
