RE: Case No. PD-185R-LI~ Coppell Industrial Addition {Tradepoint)
Dear Mr. Jerrell:
This letter is to inform you that on October 16, 2003, the Coppell Planing and Zoning Commission voted to
hold open and continue the Public Hearing for Case No. PD-185R-LI, Coppell Industrial Addition
(Tradepoint), zoning change request on 98.84 acres of property from PD-185-LI (Planned Development-
I85, Light Industrial) to PD-185R-LI (Planned Development-185 Revised, Light Industrial) to attach a
Detail Site Plan to allow for an approximate 350,183 square-foot expansion to the existing 600,000 square-
foot building on Lot 1R and the development of an approximate 952,094 square-foot office/warehouse
building on Lot 2 located 50' east of Royal Lane; north of Bethel Road, to its November 20th meeting
The Commission's main concern was the lack of architectural features (i.e., glass, canopies, articulation),
especially at the entry points visible from Bethel Road and Creekview Drive. The Commission also
requested additional information concerning the "middle-entry feature", including details, potential spacing
and number, etc. It is also suggested that, if desired, additional information be provided on the guardhouse.
Staff will be available to meet with you to discuss these items in detail.
~wo sets of revised elevations need to be submitted to the Planning Department on/or before 12 noon,
th
Wednesday, October 29 , for review.
lfyou have any questions, please contact the Planning Department at (972) 304-3678.

Site Plan:

9.
Data from Sheets A1.1.1 and A1.2.1 have been incorporated onto Sheet
A1.0.0. Sheets A1.1.1 and A1.2.1 have been eliminated.
All sheets have been re-named to 'Coppell Industrial Addition, Lots 1R and
2, Block A.'
The existing Building 1 parking, truck courts, and building have been
identified.
All easements are shown and labled.
The two 20' drainage easements are currently proposed. Will these
easements need to be moved to avoid the firelanes? The north easement
could possibly be moved further north if necessary, but not the south
easement since the current storm drainage outfall has been established. In
either case the storm drainage will need to cross a fire lane to get to the
future detention pond.
Redundant notes and sheets have been eliminated.
The zoning has been changed to PD 185R-LI
The office and warehouse parking for the Mohawk lease has been shown.
The parking for the vacancy is shown with a maximum of 10% office.
The driveways have been dimensioned.
The existing R.O.W. have been dimensioned.
The architectural Site Plan and the Landscape Plan have been coordinated.
10. The dumpster note has been revised.
11. N/A
12. Okay.
13. Okay.
Elevations:
1. The notation has been revised to 'North Corner Entry.'
2. No.
3a. Building I will not exactly match Building 2. The extra elevations for Building
2 have been eliminated.
3b. Reveals and paint colors are being used to articulate the two buildings.
3c. Color renderings have been provided.
4a. The size of the Movement Control signs has not been changed per phone
call between Marcie Diamond and Rick Gilliland.
4b. The signage zone note has been changed to show a maximum of a 200 s.f.
sign.
4c. Redundant notes and sheets have been eliminated,

1. Plat unacceptable, please contact Jeff Curry at 972-570-4126 to discuss Oncor easement
requirements.
Stephen Crawford has discussed this issue with JeffCurry. Mr. Curry wants Halffand Hillwood
to complete the "COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL ONCOR ENERGY DELIVERY
CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS" form including electric loading information for Oncor.

1. In preparation for the future improvements to Bethel Road, additional ROW dedications and
temporary easements are needed. I have included the necessary documents to be included on the
plat. Any ROW dedications will be credited to the roadway impact fee assessment.
Halff has added the right-of-way dedication and slope easement to the plat. These will be
dedicated when the plat is recorded. The temporary construction easements will need to be
executed by a separate instrument.
2. Are you proposing to construct the storm drain system for Building 2 with the expansion of
Building 1 ?
As of right now, this is the way that it is shown. Hillwood is considering another option of
associating construction of the south storm drain system with Building 2. The north storm drain
system and detention pond expansion will need to be performed during the Building 1
Expansion.
3. Verify that enclosing the open channel within the existing 20' drainage easement will not
decrease the capacity.
The 20' drainage easements are not existing easements. They are not shown on the Building 1
Final plat, but they are shown on the original preliminary plat. These drainage easements will be
dedicated by the new plat.
The current open channel south of the future Building 2 was originally designed as an outfall
ditch leading to the detention area on the eastern side of the site. For the future building layout,
this outfall ditch will need to be filled in and the detention area extended to the north. Our future
storm drain system south of Building 2 will have the capacity to contain 100-year discharges
from the fully developed site.

1. As I believe you are aware, the fire line for Building 1 is pressurized.
Hillwood and Halffunderstand that this line is pressurized.
2. All water meters, fire vaults, etc. must be within the ROW or in an easement.
All water meters, fire vaults, etc. are within easements.
3. Coordinate all work with plans for the future improvements of Bethel Road. Contact Suzan
Taylor, CIP Coordinator, at 972-304-7019.
TranSystems has been coordinating easement locations with Hillwood.

4. It is difficult to determine what is proposed for construction - Building 2 AND the expansion
of Building 17 How will the construction phasing occur?
At this time, Building 1 Expansion and Building 2 will be constructed as two separate projects,
with the Building 1 Expansion to occur first. However, both could be built simultaneously.
5. A firelane easement cannot overlap an existing drainage easement.
The two 20' drainage easements are currently proposed. Will these easements need to be moved
to avoid the firelanes? The north easement could possibly be moved further north if necessary,
but not the south easement since the current storm drainage outfall has been established. In
either case the storm drainage will need to cross a fire lane to get to the future detention pond.
6. Additional easements may be required during the engineering review process.
Okay.

1. The name of the plat needs to remain Coppell Industrial Addition, and this plat needs to be
titled Coppell Industrial Addition Lots 1R and 2, Block A, Replat and Final Plat, being a replat
of Lot 1, Block A, and a Final Plat of Lot 2, Block A, of the Coppell Industrial Addition.
Correct all references to the name of the plat on page 2.
The plat has been updated to meet this request.
2. All easements (existing, proposed and to be abandoned), need to be appropriately labeled and
consistent on all plan sheets and plat.
Ail existing easements are labeled "(Vol. 2000200, Pg. 00669, PRD.CT.)".
All proposed easements are labeled "to be dedicated by this plat"
All abandoned easements are labeled "abandoned by this plat"
3. Will paving (fire lane and parking) be permitted over the two dra'mage easements?
Refer to Engineering comment #5
4. Correct the spelling of Hillwood's Address and the typo's on page 2.
All spelling corrections have been made.
5. Revise curve data table to be in alphabetical/numeric order.
Curve data table has been separated from Line data table and put in alphabetical/numeric order.
