Dear Mike:
I received your letter on Friday, July 16, 1993, asking for reasons why your replat failed to
obtain council approval. You had also requested that I respond in writing within ten days of
your request which I will attempt to do here. After you have had an opportunity to review my
comments, and assuming that you will be filing another request, we would be happy to process
a resubmittal in our September cycle, provided you refile by our submittal deadline of August
18 for a September 16 Planning commission heating, your resubmittal addresses public hearing
concerns.
Although I can not give you all the reasons why the plat was denied--I do not know all the
reasoning behind why Council members vote--I can tell you the technical reasons for its denial.
Any and/or all of the provisions of the City of Coppell Subdivision Ordinance including Section
IX, C, 3; Section IX, C, 7; Section IX, C, 10; Section IX, C, 13; Section IX, C, 15; Section
IX, C, 18, including subsection a; Section IX, C, 19, were not followed as called out in the
ordinance. However, it is my opinion that there were three major reasons why the plat was
denied. One, there was confusion regarding whether right-of-way dedication was being offered
along Sandy Lake Road and what the current right-of-way along that street is today; two, a
landscape plan was not submitted conforming to the guidelines established by the City of
Coppell Streetscape Plan; three, there was a question regarding the inclusion or exclusion of a
sidewalk along Samuel Boulevard.
I believe these were the three major reasons for denial of the plat although I urge you to
carefully review all the provisions of the Subdivision Ordinance, including those listed above for
total compliance with our Code.
Your truly,
Gary L. Sieb, A.I.C.P.
