Re: Proposed Monument Sign ' -
Taco Bell Corporation
Denton Tap Road ..
Dear Members of Council:
On behaffof Taco Bell Corporation~ we have submiV, ed a reque~ to Mr. Greg Jones, Chief Build/ag
Official ask/ng for a variance to the City of Coppell Zoning Ordinance Section 10-5-2, Paragraph C. This
Sect/on states that detached monument signs in b~sine~ di~'iC~ shall have a maximum size of 75 square
feet. a maximum height of 12 feet and be set back a minimum of 75 feet from each side y~rcL Our
waviance request includes the following:
PROPOSED MONUMENT SIGN:
1. A maximum size of 65.7 square feet mchiding a l 7.5 square foot back base and a sign area of
48.2 square feet which is less than the 75 square foot maximunx
2. A maximum height of 11 feet, 10 roches mclndir~g the 3 foot high brick base which is less than
the 12 foot high maximum.
3. A maximum distance of 72. 5 feet from the north and south side property lines, which is only
2.5 feet below the distance required in the ordinnnce. This is the only. portion of the ordinance that will
require a variance.
REASONS FOR REQUESTING THE VARIANCE:
1. The proposed Taco Bell Building will be placed approximately 63 feet from the curb of Denton
Tap Road which is si~ificantly more than the reqRired minimRm.
2. This site is an interior site not a comer site therefore, any possible -risibility from the intersection
is important.
3. Taco Bell has agreed to all other site modifications including building materials which ~411 be
brick and not the national Taco Bell standard of stucco. Monument signage will help in Taco Bell
identification.
4. Other fast food restaurants in the area have monument signs and therefore Taco Bell should be
allowed to have the same competitive signage.
~al;&S · =crt Wort".
We, there, fore ask for your kind consideration to allow this monument sign as requestecL
Sinc~ely,
