The Parks Apartments
Preliminary - Final Plat/Site Plan
We have reviewed the above referenced project for conformance
to the City of Coppell Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision
Ordinance. The following sets forth our comments.
A. General
This case was tabled at the September 26, 1985, P & Z meeting.
They were requesting preliminary plat approval. This submission
is requesting preliminary/final plat approval, in order that
they may be placed on the October 22, 1985 Council agenda.
B. Zoning
1.
The applicant proposes to construct one hundred sixty (160)
units of one and two bedroom multi-family dwelling on 7.6212
acres of land. Present zoning is MF-2. To the north, across
Parkway Boulevard is SF-0 zoning; to the east in the vicinity
of Samuel Boulevard is SF-9 zoning; to the south, immediately
adjacent to the property, is additional MF-2 zoqing; and to
the west, immediately adjacent to the property,~s~ more MF-2
zoning with TR-2 zoned land beyond that.
The building heights are well within the regulations required.
Maximum height of buildings appear to be 28 feet, and MF-2
zoning allows up to 45 feet.
The building setback lines, front, side and rear appear to
be adequate.
Units 15, 16, 17, and 18 appear to be 15' off property line
instead of called 20' setback.
MF-2 zoning allows 22 units/acre density, while this plan
proposes a density of 21 units per acre.
The minimum dwelling unit sizes have been exceeded. One
bedroom: 600 SF required, 801 or 823 SF provided; two bed-
room: 700 SF required, 1091 or 1233 SF provided. Therefore,
the requirements have been met.
6. Parking regulations have been met.

Plat/Plan
The westernmost drive should align with Phillips Drive
across Parkway Boulevard and not be offset as shown. This
will create a traffic problem as it is now designed.
Contractor will furnish and install meter box for water
meter installation. Jetting not allowed for trench back-
fill.
Install a master water meter system as per City of Coppell
standards in lieu of 6 - 9 meters as shown.
Install a fire hydrant in vicinity of buildings 915 and 916
and relocate hydrant from near building 910 west, nearer
building 99.
No provisions have been made to accept the drainage from the
Daybridge Learning Center to the east, as the Commission was
led to believe at the last P & Z meeting.
Drainage design should be based on 100-year storm frequency
and utilize TP-40.
7. Provide screening as outlined in Zoning Ordinance.
D. Summary
We recommend approving the preliminary/final plat as submitted
with the stipulation that prior to placing on the Council agenda
for final approval, the items listed above be addressed and that
complete construction plans be submitted for review and approval.
