Agency Building Inspection 1 of 4 Reviewed By Review Date Greg Jones 11/25/03 Electric and Gas Jeff Curry 11/21/03 Engineering Teresa Turner 11/24/03 Fire Administration Greg Jones 11/25/03 Comments 1. Site plan does not include any intedor floor plan information to provide basis for review, no comments noted. Please contact Jeff Curry at 972-570-4126 to discuss electric service requirements. 1. Verify driveway spacing and locations along the S.H. 121 frontage road with TxDOT. 2. Minimize the number of taps made into the water main for the domestic and irrigation water services. It may be possible to make a single tap in some locations and branch out to adjacent buildings. 3. Verify fire hydrant spacing, FDC locations, and fire line requirements with the fire department. 4. Indicate which utilities will be installed with which phases of the development. 5. It appears that the northern driveway onto MacArthur is in conflict with an existing curb inlet. The driveway curb return cannot begin at the back of the inlet. 6. Stamped concrete paver bands are required at the driveway approaches. 7. Proposed storm drainage systems will need to be submitted in the future. If the system in MacArthur Blvd. was not designed for a 100-year storm, it may be necessary to provide on-site detention. Please verify. 8. A deceleration lane is required on MacArthur and may be required on S.H. 121. Verify with TxDOT. 9. Eliminate the public on-site fire hydrant from S.H. 121. Bring the fire hydrant off of the private fire line. 1. All Fire Lane radii 30' inside lad/54' outside radius 2. Contact FD to verify Fire Hydrant spacing, FDC locations and fire line requirements 3. Add'l Fire access needed. COntact FD 4. Ref Tract 4 for add'l comments 5. Bldgs over 5000 s.f. require auto fire sprinkler systems. COPPELL Agency Parks and Recreation Reviewed By John Elias CITY OF COPPELL DRC REPORT Review Date 11/24/03 COPPELL Comments 1. Tree mitigation shown on plan is unacceptable. 2. Tree mitigation will be the following: Gross Retribution (trees removed) 1354"DBH Preservation Credit -283"DBH Landscape Credit -891"DBH Net Retribution 233"DBH x $100 Contribution in the amount of $23,300 to the City of Coppell Reforestation and Natural Areas Fund will be required. 3. Might want to consider Up-Sizing trees from 3" to 4" to off set retribution fees. Planning Department Marcia Diamond 11/23/03 Overall Comment: This prepert¥ is zoned HC which only permits limited (max. 20%) warehousing, and only by SUP. The site plan approved for this tract 2 years ago was for an 100% office This Concept Plan indicates approximately 50% warehousing including overhead doors and a significant amount of loading areas, adjacent to residential. The City has been proactive over the past year in rezoning properties along S.H. 121 from Light Industrial to Highway Commercial to encourage retail/office and commercial uses and prohibit tilt wall industrial/warehousing along our gateway areas and adjacent to developed residential areas. This product, with 50% warehouse, is more appropriate in the established light industrial areas in the west side of Coppell. That being said, the following are technical issues also need to be addressed: Site Plan: 1. The proposed loading areas are facing, and in close proximity, to the single family homes. The site plan needs to be revised to limit the loading areas to being internal to the site, so as not to impact the adjacent residential or be visible from S.H. 121 or MacArthur Blvd. 2. The dumpster area between building 1 and 3 needs to be relocated away from the residential, and not being visible from dedicated rights-of-way. 3. A minimum 6-foot, solid, masonry, screening wall needs to be provided along the southern property line adjacent to the residential district, it is also recommended that the required wall be extended along Forest Hill Drive to provide a visual buffer to the residential to the south. Elevations of this wall, including color, materials and height need to be provided. Also, need to include the timing of the construction of this wall in relation to the phased development. It is recommended that the entire wall be constructed with the first phase of development. 4. Parking spaces are required to be a minimum of 9' x 19'. COPPELL Agency Reviewed By CITY OF COPPELL DRC REPORT Review Date COPPELL Comments 5. Need to indicate Phase lines and Tract lines between Tracts 1 and 2. 6. There are several random easement notes with either no arrows, or arrows which point to the wrong details. 7. Need to more clearly indicate the existing and proposed easements in relation to the property lines. 8. Must determine how these easements along the perimeter of the property will effect the proposed landscaping. 9. Monument signs must be setback 15 feet from property lines adjacent to the street, and 75 feet from common property lines. 10. Need to provide information about site, parking lot and building lighting, especially adjacent to the residential. 11. Provide dumpster locations on retail tracts. 12. Understanding that this is a Concept Plan additional note needs to be added to the plan which indicates that prior to any development on this tract, Detail Site Plan approval will be required for each building and that all restaurants and some types of retail will require approval of an SUP. 13. It is reccomended that a maximum of two driveways be permitted along Forest Hill Drive. Conceptual Landscape Plan: 1. Must determine how existing and proposed utility easements along the perimeter of the property will effect the propose landscaping. 2. Need to indicate the required screening wall along the southern property line. 3. Due to the residential adjacency, trees are required at a ratio of one tree per 40 feet along the southern property line. It is recommended that a mixture of evergreen and overstory trees be planted along this property line. 4. Building landscaping should be provided in front Building 1, similar to Buildings 2 and 5. 5. If specific variances to the Landscape Ordinance are being requested (i.e. elimination of the 10 feet of landscaping along common property lines for the retail pads) then it must be specifically stated as such. Tree Survey: 1. It appears that increasing the landscape setback along MacArthur Blvd. by approximately 20 feet could preserve a significant amount of 10-12 inch caliper Cedar Elms and Live Oak trees. Elevations: 1. Need to provide the percentage of stone/bricldtilt wall per fagade of each building. 1. Need to specifically state the color, materials, manufacture's specs, etc. for all materials indicated on the elevations, including the color of the overhead doors, awnings, etc. 2. Need to provide detail elevations, including color, height, materials, of the required screening walls. 3. Need to provide general signage criteria for all tracts COPPELL Agency Reviewed By CITY OF COPPELL DRC REPORT Review Date COPPELL Comments within this PD, including attached and monument signs, size, color, font, light source, etc. 4. Need to provide color board at the December 4th DRC meeting. 5. Color renderings of the project would also be helpful. m o~< < 0 roz COFFELL Project ID PD-03-0078 Address CITY OF COPPELL DRC REPORT Project Name COFFELL Vista Point II, MacArthur Ridge Project Type Application Date Case Manager Project Description Re-Zoning PD 11/17/2003 Marcie Diamond Zoning change request from HC (Highway Commercial) to PD-199-HC (Planned Development-199 Highway Commercial) for a Concept Plan to allow the development six office buildings totaling approximately 200,000 square feet (with limited warehousing?), and five retaif/restaurant pad sites, on approximately 26 acres of property.

Based on the proposed use of Tract 4, a deceleration/right-turn lane is required on MacArthur Blvd. at the norlhmost driveway. It appears that there is adequate space to allow for approximately 100' of transition and 75' of vehicle storage. This may require the dedication of additional right-of-way, the removal of some trees, and the reconstruction of a storm sewer inlet. 4.
