MEMO
TO D. Ratliff, City Manager
ROM: Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., City Engineer
SUBJECT: Grapevine Sanitary Sewer Project
DATE: October 23, 1992
On October 20, 1992, I met with Ms. Ruth Alexander and her daughter, Carol Vessey, concerning
the acquisition of an easement across her property at the northwest corner of Bethel Road and
Denton Tap. The City needs an easement across the east side of her property, parallel to Denton
Tap, from Grapevine Creek to Bethel Road to construct a portion of the sanitary sewer line.
There is currently a sanitary sewer line on the west side of Ms. Alexander's property, where
Grapevine Creek goes under Bethel Road, that goes northward along the north side of her
property and the south side of Grapevine Creek. In essence, it is on the west and north side of
her property. Ms. Alexander stated that she would like to eliminate the portion of the sewer line
on the north side of her property. This is a feasible alternative, however, there would be some
cost to the City. The cost would involve relaying the portion of the sewer line on the west side
of her property, which flows south to north right now. It would be relayed to flow in a north to
south direction to the proposed sewer line in Bethel Road. The lenght is approximately 370 feet.
By doing that, we could eliminate the portion of the sewer line on the north side of her property.
However, if the sewer line on the west side is relayed, the proposed sewer line in Bethel Road
would have to be upsized from a 24 to a 30 inch sanitary sewer line. Without the redesign of
the sewer, Ms. Alexander has strongly indicated that she will not grant an easement for the
proposed sewer line on the east side of her property and that she would fight us in court when
we try to obtain it.
The following is a summary of what Ms. Alexander would like:
1) Relay approximately 370 feet of the sanitary sewer on the west side of her
property to flow in a north to south direction .
2) Abandon the sanitary sewer on the north side of her property.
3) Install a new chain link/barbed wire fence with a chain link gate on the east side
of her property, parallel to Denton Tap Road.
4) Reseed any construction area with bermuda grass.
5) This is an offshoot of relaying the sewer on the west side. The sanitary sewer in
Bethel Road would have to be upsized from a 24 to a 30 inch sanitary sewer.
In return, the City would obtain the following from Ms. Alexander:
1) The 20 foot permanent utility easement on the east side of her property.
2) A 40 foot temporary construction easement on the east side of her property.
3) A 40 foot temporary construction easement on the west side of her property.
Memo to Alan D. Ratliff, City Manager
October 23, 1992
Page 2
The cost to relay the sanitary sewer line and to upsize the proposed sewer line in Bethel Road
would cost the City somewhere in the range of $30,000 to $40,000. As I stated in a previous
memo, I will be briefing the Council on November 10, 1992 concerning the bid opening and
various options associated with this project. At that time, unless you offer any objections, I will
present this request from Ms. Alexander as an additional option for the Council to consider and
provide direction on.
If you should have any questions concerning this, I would be happy to discuss them with you.

Subject: Sewer Easement / Alexander Tract NW corner Denton Tap andBethel
To Whom It May Concern:
In 1967, a 12" clay pipe sewer line was constructed along the north side of the Alexander Tract
on the south side of Grapevine Creek. The sewer flowed from west to east and was placed to
provide sewer service to most of the 1967 existing city limits of Coppell that was west of Denton
Tap Road.
In 1991, the City of Coppell authorized the design of a new sewer line that would replace the
existing 12" sewer line with a 24" sewer line in generally the same location along the south side
of Grapevine Creek. However, during public meetings concerning the project, there was much
discussion about how placing the new sewer line along Grapevine Creek would destroy numerous
trees, especially east of Denton Tap. In 1992, the City Council authorized the redesign of the
new 24" sewer line away from Grapevine Creek to the middle of Bethel Road. Placement of the
new 24" sewer line in Bethel Road eliminated the need for the old 12" sewer line to convey sewer
from west of the Alexander Tract.

Comcast Webmail - FW: Sewer - cement / Alexander Tract NW corner Denton Tap and... Page 2 of 2
With the construction of the 24" sewer line in 1993/94, the City abandoned the portion of the old
12" sewer line on the west side of the Alexander Tract. (Attached is a copy of my October 23, •
1992 memo to the City Manager, that was also presented to Council, that outlined the
abandonment of the 12" sewer line across the Alexander Tract.) The old 12" sewer line along the
north side of the Alexander Tract is still in place, but it only exist to serve the Alexander Tract. If
the development of the Alexander Tract does not utilize the old 12" sewer line, then it can be
abandoned. If it is abandoned, then the easement on the site could also be abandoned with the
replatting of the property.
If you should have any questions concerning this issue please feel free to contact me at your
convenience.
