Page 2 of 3
This request is to amend the existing Site ,Plan to allow for the expansion
of Fire Station #3. As indicated on the Site Plan, the 3,546-square-foot
expansion area is on the south side of tl~e existing building. This will
house a state-of-the-art conference/t~aining facility capable of
accommodating 80-100 people. An additional parking lot (30 spaces) is
shown on the plans to mirror the existing l~arking lot, meeting the parking
requirement of 20-25 spaces (1 space per4 seats). It will also serve the
Justice Center, Town Center building and the proposed Plaza area.
The building materials on this expansion Will match the existing building,
including red and reddish brown brick an~t buff color CMU veneer. An
attached sign with 8" brushed aluminum le!tering is proposed to read "City
of Coppell Training Center." The 14-s~uare-foot sign will match the
existing signage along Town Center Boulevard and will not exceed the
maximum area allowed.
The Landscaping Plan will be modified in places where building
renovation/expansion or parking is proposed. Trees will be provided at
the end of each parking row and adjaceht to the proposed conference
center. The mechanical equipment will be iscreened with a 4'-tall hedge of
Nellie R. Stevens Holly.
A replat will be needed for the abandonmoBt of various easements. Given
these minor platting issues, this will be considered as an Amending Plat
and will be submitted for Administrative Approval in the near future.
