HISTORY:
Pinkerton Elementary School was built many years ago, but
was never platted. The purpose of platting this parcel is
to create a legal building site, and to expand the existing
facility.
TRANSPORTATION:
Southwestern Boulevard is presently a two-lane, asphalt
roadway. This road is scheduled for improvements, at the
time of development of the portion of Park West Commerce
Center, which will front on Southwestern Boulevard.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - Vacant, "C" zoning
East - Single-family structures; "C" zoning
South - Vacant; "LI" zoning
West - Vacant; "C" zoning
ANALYSIS:
Coppell Independent School District proposes to expand the
existing facilities to build a cafeteria along the back
portion of the school. The front of the building will be
renovated with a facade to give the front elevation a look
of continuity. Staff recommends approval of the
preliminary plat.

1) Mark Moore of 523 Cooper is associated with the baseball association in Coppell. He
wished to encourage Council to move ahead with the development of the Community Park
Master Plan and pledged the support of the baseball association in the building of the Park.
2) Debra Stantic of 425 Parkview expressed a desire to leave the area in its present state,
leaving it as a wildlife area.
3) Barbara Finkelberg of 313 Parkview does not feel that the ball parks should be put on the
east side of the park area because of the flooding problem. She expressed concern over the
source of money needed to maintain these areas and the lighting problems to the present home
owners.
4) Bill Markham of 200 Heatherglen felt that there had been a problem with getting 1,500
young people onto existing ball fields and feels there is a need for additional space to allow for
growth.
5) Frank Sigmund of 316 Quiet Valley pointed out that if these fields had been in existence this
year, they would have been under water. He was under the impression that the voters had
turned down these baseball fields in the last bond election, but that nature trails had been
approved.
