​What is an eoc?

 

In addition to hosting public education classes, the Life Safety Park's main education building also houses the City of Coppell's Emergency Operations Center (EOC), under the direction of Coppell's Emergency Management Division. An EOC, in a municipal government setting, is a central location from which local government can provide interagency and interdepartmental coordination and executive decision making in support of incident response and recovery operations. Except for special circumstances, the EOC does not command or control on-scene response efforts, but does provide coordination by: collecting, evaluating and disseminating incident information; anlyzing jurisdiction impacts and setting priority actions; and, managing requests, procurement and utilization of resources.​

On an average day, the EOC is minimally staffed for constant situational monitoring and maintenance. Coppell's EOC contains six computer work stations for monitoring impending weather conditions, public safety monitoring, communications maintenance, and mass notification efforts. In the event of EOC activation, additional personnel and representatives from public safety, emergency response, and various support agencies are called in to coordinate and enact the City’s Emergency Operations Plan. 

Beyond the dedicated workspace, the facility provides the foundation for EOC capabilities: it was designed for fault-tolerant redundant capabilities for local network, internet, telecommunications and power. Additionally, the core of the facility is a hardened structure with features like concrete steel-reinforced walls/ceiling and high-wind rated windows. 

While the EOC is designed to handle unplanned events and emergencies, it is much more than a reactionary tool for the City. The hub plays host to many training sessions, tabletop exercises, planning workshops, and general preparedness activities in an effort to be as much of a preventative tool as it is to serve in the event of an emergency. 

For more information on the Emergency Operations Center, visit the Emergency Management​ webpage.​

​​Appeals

If you are found guilty and are not satisfied with the judgment or verdict, you have the right to appeal your case to an appellate court. Coppell Municipal Court No. 1 is a court of record. An appeal is limited to a review of the trial court's record to determine whether legal error exists, which may justify overturning the conviction. Appeals must comply with the procedures and requirements in Chapter 30 of the Texas Government Code. The court clerks are not authorized to give legal advice. You may seek the advice of an attorney if you appeal a conviction. ​

Presenting Your Case at Trial​​

If you plead Not Guilty, a trial is held on a sworn Complaint filed against you. A Complaint is the document which alleges the act you committed. You can only be tried for what is alleged in the Complaint. You have the following rights:

1. To inspect the Complaint before trial and have it read to you at the trial;
   
2. To request evidence material to any matter involved in your case;
   
3. To hear all testimony (evidence) against you;
   
4. To cross-examine any witness who testifies against you;
   
5. To testify (tell what happened) on your behalf;
   
6. Not to testify. Your refusal cannot be held against you in determining your innocence or guilt;
   
7. To call witnesses on your behalf. You may request that the court issue a subpoena to ensure the witness appears at the trial; and
   
8. To present evidence on your behalf.
   

If you have a jury trial, you may question potential jurors about their qualifications to hear your case. You may remove none or up to three potential jurors for any reason you choose, except a reason based solely upon a person’s race, gender, sex, or religion.

In criminal trials, the State presents its case first by calling witnesses. After prosecution witnesses have testified, you have the right to cross-examine. You may ask the witnesses questions about their testimony or other facts relevant to the case. Your cross examination of the witness must be in the form of questions. You may not give testimony at this time.

After the prosecution has rested its case, you may present your evidence. You have the right to bring or subpoena a witness who knows anything about the offense. The State has the right to cross-examine any witness that you bring or subpoena.

You may testify on your own behalf but, as a defendant, you cannot be compelled to testify. Your silence cannot be used against you if you do not testify. If you testify, the State has the right to cross-examine you.

After testimony is concluded, both sides may make a closing argument. You may tell the court or jury why you are not guilty of the offense charged. The State has the right to present the first and last arguments. The closing argument can be based only on the testimony admitted during the trial. 

Judgment/Verdict

If the judge tries the case, the judge’s decision is called a judgment. If a jury tries the case, the jury’s decision is called a verdict.

If a judge or jury finds you guilty, a fine will be announced at the trial. Unless you appeal your case, you should be prepared to pay the fine, court costs, and fees. ​

New Trials

If you are found guilty, you may request a new trial. The motion must be made in writing within ten days after a judgment has been entered against you. The judge may, for good cause, grant a new trial if the judge considers that justice has not been done in the trial of your case. Only one new trial may be granted for each offense. ​​

As a protective measure for our residents, a building permit must be acquired from the Building Inspections Department for the replacement of all roofs, both residential and commercial. The permit ensures that the contractor is registered with the City and that a safety inspection will be performed.

Residential safety inspections include:

• An external visual scan from the ground for obvious deficiencies, such as missing flashing.
  
• An internal inspection that focuses on heater and water heater vents to ensure they are still in compliance and safe.
  
• An internal inspection that identifies actual or potential damage from roofing nails or other damage in cases where certain gas supply piping products are presented.
  

Please note:

• Roof replacement shall include the removal of existing layers of roof coverings down to the roof deck.
  
• Roof top mounted Photovoltaic Systems (Solar Panels) may be damaged and need replacement or repair. This might require a separate permit. If they need to be removed to replace roofing , this must be done by a qualified contractor. A permit will be required for re-installation.
  

*An inspection will not be performed on "patch" repairs of less than one "square" (100 square feet - 10'x10') that do not affect vents or PV (Solar) Systems.*

First-time company registrations must be completed in our office at 265 Parkway Blvd, Coppell, TX. Once your company has been registered, you can apply for a permit online at our Citizen Self Service portal. For questions, call 972-304-3500.

Our goal is to keep you safe!

​​​​​​Being Informed Matters -- Get Notified

The City of Coppell employs a comprehensive emergency warning program and has access to several tools 

that are used to alert the public of emergencies or disasters. It is important to always have multiple ways of 

receiving emergency warnings. A single method alone may not provide be effective at all times or in all situations. 

​

​​​

​

​

​​​​​​​Emergency Notification System (NotifyCoppell)​​

​Receive alerts about emergencies and other important community news by signing u​p for NotifyCoppell, an EverBridge system. This system enables us to provide you with critical information quickly in a variety of situations, such as severe weather (with optional opt-in weather notifications), unexpected road closures, missing persons, and evacuations of buildings or neighborhoods. You will receive time-sensitive messages wherever you specify, such as your home, mobile or business phones, email address, text messages, and more. You pick where, you pick how. We recommend you include a cell phone number capable of receiving SMS text messages, as well as email addresses as less invasive ways to receive non-emergency messages. Click here ​to sign up!​

​

​​​​​​Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEAs)

​The Wireless Emergency Alert system is a public safety warning system that allows customers who have certain wireless carriers and an enabled mobile device to receive geographically-targeted, text-like messages alerting them of imminent threats to safety in their area. The technology ensures that emergency alerts will not get stuck in highly congested areas, which can happen with standard mobile voice and text data services. The service is free (i.e. you will NOT be charged for any incoming messages), but requires registration: Find more information on WEAs here. The three types of alerts through this system are: Alerts issued by the President of the United States AMBER Alerts (missing persons) Alerts involving imminent threats to safety of life. In our area, the National Weather Service issues Tornado Warnings and Flash Flood Warnings via WEA.

​​

​​​​thorguard lightning detection system​

​The City of Coppell utilizes the ThorGuard Lightning Prediction and Detection System at city parks and aquatic facilities, CISD campuses, and other various public locations. ThorGuard Lightning Detectors continuously monitor the atmosphere's electrostatic energy and evaluates the potential for lightning within a 15-mile radius. When a detector determines the threat for lightning in the area, a 15-second air horn blast will sound and its strobe light will turn on. Upon hearing or seeing these signals, individuals who are outdoors should seek ​appropriate shelter in a sturdy, enclosed structure immediately. When the detector senses conditions are safe, the strobe light will turn off and the horn will sound three short 5-second blasts; normal activity may resume. It is important to remember that lightning can occur at any time, even if that dark cloud overhead does not seem that ominous; though it may appear to be clear and sunny where you are, "bolts from the blue" can occur up to 10 miles away from its parent thunderstorm. Therefore, the common sense rule applies, "when thunder roars, go indoors!" If you see lightning or hear thunder, halt activity and seek shelter for at least 30 minutes without observing any additional strikes/thunder. Head to NOAA's lightning safety page for more information.​

​

​​​​​​​Noaa All-hazards weather radio​

​National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) All-Hazards Radios are used nationwide, and broadcast weather information directly from the National Weather Service (NWS) from a collaborative network of radio stations. During dangerous weather, they are activated automatically by the local NWS Weather Forecast Office (WFO) when the weather threatens their responsible domain. The City of Coppell highly recommends that you purchase an All-Hazards Weather Radio with the programmable S.A.M.E. (Specific Area Message Encoding) alert feature, and program it accordingly to deliver weather warnings when issued for our area.  The most popular consumer brand is the Midland Weather Alert Radio: WR120/WR300 Most weather radios operate on both an AC power wall adapter and battery backup, which is important for emergencies experiencing power failure, as traditional communication mechanisms (TV, radio, landline phone) will not function. Our local area county codes are: Denton County: 048121 Dallas County: 048113 Tarrant County: 048439 Collin County: 048085 For more information on NOAA All-Hazards Weather Radios, click here. For help programming your weather radio, you may also call the local Weather Forecast Office in Fort Worth at (817) 429-2631, or look for special​ severe weather awareness events in your community.

​

​​​​​​​Smartphone Applications

​There are many different phone applications that offer "push" notification services during severe weather. Some are free, and some cost money. Depending on your particular preference, these apps can be downloaded to your smart phone or other device as a tool for weather warning information.  Be sure to enable the "push" notification feature, which allows the app to continuously poll for alerts, and set the alerts to an audible tone that will wake you up at night. Here are a few examples of phone apps that offer push notification alerts for dangerous weather: The Weather Channel (Apple/Android)​ iMap Weather Radio by Weather Decision Technologies (WDT) (Apple/Android) AccuWeather (Apple/Android) KTVT, CBS Channel 11 (Apple/Android) WFAA, ABC Channel 8 (Apple​/Android) KXAS, NBC Channel 5 (Apple/Android) KDFW, FOX Channel 4 (Apple/Android) American Red Cross Apps (Apple/Android) Many other applications are available for download via the Apple App Store or Google Play, and can be found by performing a simple 'Weather Radio' subject search. Remember: downloading a smartphone application is not a substitute to having a working weather radio.

​

​​ ​​When it comes to receiving important emergency alerts, remember: "Two is one and one is none!"

​​Municipal Court Authority and Jurisdiction The single most important source of municipal court authority and jurisdiction is the Texas Constitution which gives the state legislature the power to establish courts and their jurisdiction when it sees fit. The legislature exercised this power and first created municipal courts in the Corporation Court Law of 1899. This law has been codified in the Texas Government Code.
