No comments made No Comments received Site Plan - 1. The proposed Haas Court needs to line up with the ex[sting Bethel School Road. 2. Indicate whether you are proposing this street to be publicly dedicated or privately owned and maintained. 3. You are showing a 50' ROW dedication and then you are calling a 27' wide fire lane, there seems to be some conflict there - see #2 above. 4. You need to dimension the fire lanes shown mid-block between Lots 14 & 15 on the NW side and Lots 38 &39 from the centerline of the proposed street. Also, provide some kind of information on how you will prohibit parking in that area. 5. In addition, the typical courtyard parking scheme indicates two parking places (e.g. Lot 37 and Lot 38) that are actually on Lot 38 whereas the garage for Lot 37 is accessed through that area on Lot 38. How will you ensure access to garage for owners of Lot 37? If the owners of Lot 38 prefer to park on the paved portion of that lot, I don't see how you can prevent them from doing that. 6. if this is to be a public street, it witl be required to end in a cul-de-sac rather than the configuration shown. Other access would need to be provided into and out of this development (see Fire Marshal's comments for further requirements). The cul-de-sac length exceeds the maximum allowed by our subdivision ordinance. Landscape Plan - 1. This plan indicates that several trees will be planted on top of our 24" waterline. That will not be allowed. · See additional comments on Preliminary Plat case for this development CO??ELL Agency Fire Administration Parks and Recreation Planning Department Reviewed By Tim Oates John Elias Gary Sieb CITY OF COPPELL DRC REPORT Review Date 4/30/04 4~8~4 4~1~4 COPPELL Comments Site Plan - Indicate turning radii for fire lane - 30' inside, 54' outside. Landscape Plan - Maintain 14' clearance over fire lane easement Floor Plan - Provide automatic fire sprinkler closet that is accessible on each unit. Water & Sewer Layout - Provide fire hydrant at the entrance to property (Lot 1) and near Lot 14 and Lot24 - Water line shall not 'dead-end' system must 'loop' or tie into existing system. 1) Sallfield lights will be a major problem for residents of these townhomes. The lights are installed along the baselines, and are aimed towards the outfield, meaning they will be aimed directly at lots 1-24. According to these plans the lights will be less than 200' from the townhomes. Per city oridance #2003-1032, chapter 9, section 9-11-3(D) the ballfield lights must be turned off no later than 11:00 p.m., 7 days a week. 2) Noise from the ballfields will also be a major problem for the residents of these townhomes. The Park hours are from 6:30 a.m. to sunset unless scheduled under a license use agreement with the city, which the baseball association has in place. Meaning baseball games can start very early (ia 7:00 a.m.) and go until 11:00. The age group of the kids playing baseball at this park is 5 to 8 year olds, typically the crowd noise is higher for the smaller kids. They use aluminum bats as well. 3) Park Development fee of $1285.00 per unit. SITE PLAN 1. Show 15' bdck paver band inside property line. 2. 27' wide fire lane--relabel as 27' wide public street. 3. Dimension size of parking spaces (9'x19'). 4. Add: "...and zoning..." to Note #3 between "visability" and "ordinance" on last line of sentence. 5. Change street name to Bethel School Court. 6. Show and dimension sidewalks on plans. 7. Site Plan is in the Riverchase Townhouse Addition, not the Mark Haas Addition. 8. Indicate maximum square footage of "downstairs master option" and dimension. 9. Dimension distance between units (minimum of 15 feet). 10. Tandem parking shown in 'q'ypical Court Yard" example is not counted toward overall parking requirements. 11. Dimension all setbacks; zero front yard setbacks unacceptable. 12. Stucco greater than 20% ~is not recommended on a project of this scale and massing. 13. Need landscape screen along all parking spaces which can be seen from adjacent properties. 14. Add revised name, acreage, and density information within the Site Plan title block. 15. Seal needed on I.s. plans. COPPELL Agency Reviewed By CITY OF COPPELL DRC REPORT Review Date COPPELL Comments 16.
