NTTA Police Services Agreement for Sam Rayburn Tollway
Coppell will get paid about $110,302 a year for police services on its half-mile stretch of the Sam Rayburn Tollway. Council clarified the city keeps full discretion over staffing — it already responds to emergencies there but was never compensated before.

Library Operations and Community Reports
