RE: Denton Tap Sidewalk Infill

504 S. Denton Tap
Offer Letter
Dear Dr. Stearman:
The City of Coppell is in the process of finalizing the design for the Denton Tap
Sidewalk Infill project. This project will consist of installing sidewalk within the gap
areas along Denton Tap from SH 121 to Belt Line Road. Due to ADA slope issues, we
will also need to replace driveways along the project route.
The city is in the process of acquiring easements from ten (10) parcels within the project
limits. In order to construct the sidewalk, it is necessary to acquire a portion of land
along the frontage to Denton Tap of your property 504 S. Denton Tap. We are including
a page from the design plans that shows your lot and the encroachment onto your
property that requires the easement dedication.
According to the Dallas Central Appraisal District, the land is currently valued at
$217,000 for 0.6227 AC ($217,000 / [0.6227 AC *43560 sf /AC]) = $8.00 per square foot.
The easement area needed is 667 sf. The City of Coppell is offering one -half (1/2) of the
value of the land, $2668 for the easement. This letter constitutes an offer from the City
of Coppell for the acquisition of the sidewalk easement.
Construction is anticipated to begin in the 3rd or 4th quarter of 2010 and the city needs to
acquire the easement as soon as possible. If the above offer is acceptable, please sign
below and return it to this office. Once the letter is signed and returned, the process for
payment can begin. The easement documents are enclosed with this Offer Letter. The
Offer Letter will grant the city permission to acquire the easement and to enter your
property. The city respectfully requests your execution of the documents. When the
checks are ready, we can arrange a mutually agreeable method to exchange the
documents and the checks.
Your consideration of this matter is appreciated and if you have any questions, please
contact George Marshall at 972 - 304 -3562, or me at the number below.
