Lightning Prediction System

A lightning prediction system is in place in some of the busier park sites and along some trails within the City. The system is designed to alert park, trail and ballfield users that the conditions are favorable for lightning strikes.

When activated, those in the area should seek shelter immediately. The lightning prediction system operates from 7 AM - 11PM, seven days a week. ​

Park visitors should always assess weather conditions before going outside and always be prepared to take the appropriate action needed to ensure safety.​

​Wagon Wheel Park	​Three units cover trails, fields and Wagon Wheel Tennis Center

A collaborative effort between staff and citizens led to the installation of 10 sculptures in the City's Old Town district, referred to as the Old Town Art Splash. In 2018, phase two was completed to bring additional sculptural pieces to Coppell's signature park, Andrew Brown Park East. In 2019, the Old Town Art Splash was refreshed with 10 new art installations. Learn more about the Coppell Arts Council.

In an effort to honor our great volunteers, we pick a volunteer to highlight each month. Read all about some of our most dedicated volunteers!

​​​​​​​​​​​Food Safety and Restaurant Scores

The City of Coppell Food Program is responsible for protecting the public health by inspecting for food safety in restaurants, grocery stores, schools, daycares and other retail food establishments. A food establishment health permit is required for all businesses or organizations that provide perishable foods, whether prepackaged or non-prepackaged, to the public. Permanent establishments, as well as temporary events, are required to apply for a food permit, regardless of whether there is a charge for the food.

Texas Food Establishments Rules

​ City of Coppell Food Ordinance Amendments​

Certified Food Protection Manager & Food Handler Requirements:
The City of Coppell requires at least one employee that has supervisory and management responsibility to be a Certified Food Protection Manager. Click here for more information on Certified Food Protection Manager recognized exams and testing agencies. 
 
ALL food employees, except for the certified food manager, shall successfully complete an accredited food handling training course. Click here for more information on Certified Food Protection Manager recognized exams and testing agencies. 

Cottage Food Operators: 

Home food preparation is not allowed in the State of Texas except foods that fall under the Texas Cottage Food Law. 

A cottage food production operation is defined as an individual, operating out of the individual’s home, who: 

• Produces a baked good, candy, coated and uncoated nuts, unroasted nut butters, fruit butters, a canned jam or jelly, a fruit pie, dehydrated fruit or vegetables, including dried beans, popcorn and popcorn snacks, cereal, including granola, dry mix, vinegar, pickles, mustard, roasted coffee or dry tea, or a dried herb or dried herb mix. 
• Has an annual gross income of $50,000 or less from the sale of the described foods; and
• Sells the foods produced directly to consumers at the individual’s home, a farmers’ market, a farm stand, or a municipal, county, or nonprofit fair, festival or event.
• Delivers products to the consumer at the point of sale or another location designated by the consumer.  
  

Click here​ for Cottage Food Production frequently asked questions.

Food Inspection Results:

Food establishment inspections are the primary tool for detecting procedures and practices that may be hazardous.  The restaurant scores are used as a tool by the City to place a value on compliance to the regulations, educate the operators, and thereby encourage corrective action.  It should not be assumed that the inspection results reflect how an establishment always operates. The City of Coppell uses a 100-point scoring system during each unannounced routine inspection.  A score below 70 may be grounds for the closing of the establishment. Every violation noted is debited using a weighted scale (1-5) based on severity. The frequency of inspections is based on each establishment's potential "risk." The "risk" is based on type of food preparation, volume of customers and previous inspection scores. Unannounced scoring inspections are conducted from two to four times per year based on the calculated "risk" of the establishment.

Any violation of the Zoning Ordinance carries a penalty of up to $2,000 dollars for each offense.​​​

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​816 S. Coppell Rd. Coppell, TX 75019​​ PO Box 9478

972-462-5150 Monday - Friday 7 am - 4:30 pm ​streets@coppelltx.gov​

The Streets Division mission is to maintain streets and alleys in a safe and drivable condition. In addition, it is our mission to respond to emergency conditions associated with flooding, barricading, snow and ice control.  Furthermore, the Streets Division provided services to repair broken or settled sidewalks within the city Right of Way.

The Streets Division personnel maintain 368 miles of streets, repair 33,000 square feet of sidewalk and seal 221,000 linear feet of concrete pavement annually.

​​GENERAL INFORMATION

Please contact the Streets Department to repair damaged sidewalks, streets, a curb that is crumbling or an alley that is sinking.  You may also report damage electronically by using the Request for Service​​ link.  For emergency situations after normal business hours, weekends and holidays please call Coppell Police Dispatch at 972-304-3610.

If you witness any vandalism, graffiti, or accidental damage to streets or alleys, please contact the Streets Division or Coppell Police Dispatch at 972-304-3610 after hours.

DRAINAGE PROBLEMS

The City does not maintain creeks or ditches on private property.  The City does maintain inlets, pipes, concrete channels and headwalls that discharge into creeks.  At a property owner's request, the City will remove obstacles on private property which are obstructing the flow of water, provided they are accessible from land.

• ​In the event of flooding due to a blockage of the storm drain system, residents may call the Streets Division.​
  
• In the event of a flooding emergency during non business hours please contact Coppell Police Dispatch at 972-304-3610.

Residents are urged not to dispose of leaves or grass clippings into open drainage systems or to place any debris in a location that would impede the flow of water into the underground drainage system.  Such actions may result in serious flooding.  Also, waste accumulates and pollutes the areas adjacent to ditches, streams and lakes and ruins the aesthetics for all citizens of Coppell.

ANNUAL STREET, ALLEY & CURB REPAIR PROJECT

The Public Works Department provides administration and oversight of the Annual Street, Alley & Curb Repair Projects.  These projects are conducted generally between April and December of each year using the list of addresses requested or called in for repair from the previous year.

If a street needs repair, a curb is crumbling or an alley is sinking a work order will be issued for evaluation and measurement of the location.  The address will be added to a list for repair during next year's contract period.  In emergency cases repairs will be made as soon as possible.​
