Duke Lesley-CS100429T H E C 1 T Y O F COPPELL 0 � 9 April 29, 2010 Hartford Fire Insurance Company 2 Park Avenue, 5 Floor New York, NY 10016 VIA CERTIFIED MAIL RE: Duke Lesley Addition, Infrastructure Bond No. 46BCSE07205 Street Failure(s) on Dividend Dr. & Point West Blvd. Dear Sir or Madam: The two -year term on the above referenced maintenance bond began on February 21, 2008, the date of final acceptance of the project. The City of Coppell has been in contact with the owner, the general contractor and the subcontractor regarding workmanship covered under the maintenance bond since before the term of the bond expired. (See the enclosed letters, please.) Your insured, San Saba Construction Services, Inc., installed fire hydrants and underground water lines for the project. The potential exists that the work is a contributing cause of the pavement failures, as those installations are where many of the failures were discovered, and where the pavement is also continuing to deteriorate. During two separate meetings at the site, the paving contractor assured me that the problems discovered in the paving on Dividend Drive and Point West Boulevard would be addressed, so that further deterioration could be prevented. As of the date of this letter, those locations have not been repaired and further damage is occurring. The City of Coppell must, therefore, use maintenance bond monies to affect the repairs needed in order to protect our infrastructure and vehicles from further damage. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss how this will be accomplished.
