RE: Alexander Court - Final Plat Submittal
We are still waiting on a revised hold harmless agreement to be executed
by John Hawkins. You can tell Mr. Windsor that as soon as we receive
that we are prepared to issue a permit for the wall.

Unless Ken or one of our attorneys disagrees, we should allow them to
pull the permit. We said we were willing to issue the permit with a
hold harmless if they filed a plat. Please advise if I am missing
something. Thanks.

I just received a call from Mike Windsor, of TRW who is the contractor
for the screening wall for Alexander Court. His construction manager
received a call from Mr. Hawkins, stating that now they have "filed"
(submitted) a plat that meets our requirements, may they pull a permit
for the screening wall?
At one point "we" put that offer on the table.. but now that we are to
proceed to P&Z with the Final Plat, do we need to wait for their
approval and filing this plat w/Dallas County? or at the very least wait
until we receive the Hold-Harmless Agreement?
Please advise..
thank you.

I talked to Walt Leonard today. After discussing the options of
having the plat considered on 4/17 or waiting until the LOMR is
complete, he requested that the plat as submitted be placed on the 4/17
P&Z agenda, in order to expedite permits for the non-floodplain lots.
He also stated that per his client, Rep. Marchant is not pleased
at FEMA missing the March 12th date he was originally told was the LOMR
issuance deadline. Rep. Marchant is apparently now trying to expedite
the LOMR issuance prior to the April 15th, which FEMA now says is the
target date.
Walt also expects to have Mr. Hawkins' signature on the
hold-harmless agreement by the end of the week. As soon as it arrives,
I will forward a copy to you.

If we do not allow the plat to move forward, he cannot obtain building
permits for the unaffected lots. Have we not told them that the
two-phased platting was acceptable to us? We need to follow through
with what we have said would be acceptable unless they have asked us not
to. What am I missing?

Subject: Alexander Court - Final Plat Submittal
As expected, Mr. Hawkins submitted a Final Plat for Alexander Court by
today's noon deadline...
The plat indicates the Flood Plain line in the existing (FEMA) location
(lots 9-22 in the flood plain). It appears that all drafting have been
addressed. The purpose of this submittal is to allow the issuance of a
permit for the screening wall along Bethel and Denton Tap.
I asked Mr. Hawkins if he heard from FEMA.. he said he received bad
news today, that even with "congressional action" FEMA said that it will
be another 30 days!

I also received a call from David Ritter. He had a conversation today
with Mr. Leonard, Mr. Hawkins attorney, and said that we should also be
receiving a letter waiving the 30 day requirement for plat approval.
It appears reasonable not to place this Final Plat on the P&Z Agenda
until such time that the Flood Plain line is moved. If this plat is
approved and filed as is, then once the flood plain is moved.. a REPLAT
would be required.. which is a 60 day process thru P&Z and Council.
Again, the sole purpose of this plat submittal is to allow the issuance
of a permit for the screening wall along Bethel and Denton Tap. David
Ritter said that we should also be receiving a Hold Harmless letter from
Mira Mar...in the event that the wall needs to be removed, Mira Mar will
be liable and the city will not be..
I will keep you all informed...
