COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
Coppell 2030, A Comprehensive Master Plan, indicates this property as a Mixed-
Use Community Center without residential.
DISCUSSION: A Site Plan for this property was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission
in August of this year, allowing the construction of a new 3,558 square foot building
to be occupied by Capital One. This approval was subject to providing a fire lane
easement and establishing the necessary easements to support this proposed
development, which this plat does. This plat shows easements and a right-of-way
dedication previously established by separate instrument, in addition to the new fire
lane and mutual access easement dedicated by this plat.
