Consideration and approval of an lnterlocal Agreement with Dallas County
for the design of Sandy Lake Road from MaeArthur Blvd. to the east city
limit.
Date: July 13, 1993
I was recently contacted by Bud Beene, Director of Public Works, Dallas County, concerning
the referenced Interlocal Agreement between the City of Coppell and Dallas County. After some
research, it was noted that an Interlocal Agreement had never been entered into between the city
and county. The initial Interlocal Agreement is essential for the county to proceed with the
design of Sandy Lake Road. As has been explained to me by Mr. Beene, once the project has
been designed, a supplemental Interlocal Agreement will be developed that addresses the
specifics of this project. The specifics could include sidewalks, brick pavers, landscaping,
upgrades of water and/or sewer lines and things of that nature. The supplemental Interlocal
Agreement will outline the exact cost to the city and to the county. At that time, the city will
need to be in a position to pay for its share of the improvements. If the city chooses not to pay
for its share of the improvements at that time, the county would need to reconsider whether it
will continue with the construction of Sandy Lake. There is not a specific time table on Sandy
Lake Road but it is quite possible that the city will need to look at funding of their share of the
project in 1994 range when they consider any bonds to be sold for 1994. The City Attorney has
reviewed the Interlocal Agreement and while he did have some concerns he is in agreement with
the initial interlocal agreement.
Staff will be available to answer any question concerning this item.

Be: Master Interlocal Agreement
Dear Mr. Griffin:
~n res~°nse to your ~uestions regarding the Master Interlooal
Agreement (MIAL) the following comments are provided.
The MILA is general i~ nature outlining
division of improvements and obligations of the
County and City.
As the specifics of each project are determined, a
supplemental ILAwill be developed ad~ressingthose
issues, i.e., outlining$ costs for the City
requested items such as a~thetic amenities (brick
pavers, landscaping and such).
The MILk outlines that the City will use its
franchise agreement authority to insure timely
adjustments ofprivate utilities.
The MILAoutlines tha~ C~ty will adjust or relocate
~heir utilities to accommodate projects. It is
notodthat certain u~il~ty adjustments are eligible
for reimbursement by t~e County, however,
betterment improvements are not eligible for
reimbursement. The County will make every effort
in its design to minimize the impact on publicly
owned utilities.
These comments hopefully a~dress your concerns. Should you require
further clarification, please contact this Department.
