Keith,
I just got off of the phone with my surveyor, Charlie, and he is pretty
sure that his crew trucks are parking on the side roads and not the side
of Deforest. He will make sure that they are aware of this request.
He did say that the utility companies have been out there marking, not
us. The surveyor does not normally pull flags. After we are sure that
all marked utilities have been surveyed, I will personally go out, take
pictures, and pull the flags. (The paint will have to wear off!)
My original survey boundary was the northbound lanes and median of
MacArthur Blvd. When I talked to the surveyorthis morning, I asked him
to go back and take shots 50 feet past the curb returns on the west side
of MacAuthur (southbound lanes) and west on Deforest. Tie everything to
the apparent property line. Will that be enough survey information?

Quinn,
Please pass this along to the surveyor. I am certain that the
contractors he is referring to are locators for the utility companies,
but we should be conscious about what we are dealing with out there.
Do the surveyors intend to remove the utility flags when they are
complete with their field work? They can pose a problem for lawn
maintenance.
One more question about the intersection of MacArthur Blvd. and
Deforest, will the field survey include the entire intersection? We are
considering whether this intersection needs a traffic signal. We will
plan to conduct a warrant study in the next few months, and if one is
warranted and we can find the money for it we will talk with you about
including one in your design contract.

Ken,
The citizens are a bit concerned that lines are being drawn on yards,
flags are being put into the ground, trucks are running upon our
landscaped areas, etc. Nobody has sent anything out to us to date
regarding citizen time to review this project, as initially promised.
We watch Coppell Clips regularly and also try to review the city web
site.
Can you please update us on when the citizen input would start?
Can you update us on where to file complaints for continued ruining of
our landscaping in our HOA? We have had sprinklers busted and the
trucks have, once again, messed up the flow of drainage near MacArthur.
Can the trucks for these contractors PLEASE park on Prestwick or other
street and not drive onto our grass, especially when wet?
Please advise as many questions are being asked of the HOA's.
Thank you,
Todd J. Harris
