RE: Deforest Road Reconstruction
•
ST 05 -01
Parcel 5 — Sidewalk Easement & Offer Letter
Dear Mr. Miller:
The City of Coppell is in the process of finalizing the design for the reconstruction of
Deforest Road from MacArthur Boulevard to Windsor Estates. This project will consist
of removing the current asphalt roadway, constructing a 27 ft. wide concrete street with
improved drainage, constructing 5 ft. wide sidewalk along both sides of the street, and
installing traffic signals at the intersection of Deforest Road and MacArthur Boulevard.
In order to construct approved ADA accessible curb ramps at the intersections along this
project, the city is approaching adjacent property owners and requesting dedication of a
sidewalk easement across the corner of those lots where the ramp would extend beyond
the city right -of -way. I am including a page from the design plans that shows your lot,
the proposed sidewalk, and the encroachment onto your property that requires the
easement dedication.
Parcel five (5) is a 10 ft. x 10 ft. corner clip located at the northeast corner of your lot at
the intersection of Deforest Road and Allen Road. Corner clips are normally required at
street intersections where pedestrian improvements such as sidewalks and access ramps
are constructed.
According to the Dallas County Appraisal District, the value of the 10 ft. x 10 ft. corner
clip is approximately $323.00 at $6.45 per square feet. The city is offering a set amount
of $500.00 for this comer clip. This letter constitutes an offer from the City of Coppell
for acquisition of the easement as follows:
Parcel 5
Acquisition of Sidewalk Easement (corner clip) $500.00
255 PARKWAY * P.O. BOX 9478 * COPPELL TX 75019 * TEL 972/462 0022 * FAX 972/304 3673

Construction is anticipated to begin during 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 the signed letter to this office. Once the letter is received, the
process for payment of the $500.00 can begin. Enclosed are the easement documents and
exhibits as described above.
Your considerations 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.
Sincerely,
ji
