Re: Riverchase City - Developer Agreement
Dear Mr. Doyle:
As requested in your memo of November 7, 1988, copy attached, we
have consulted with the Dallas County Public Works Department who
is administering engineering and construction of the segment of
Belt Line Road which contains the bridge in question. Dallas
County had their consulting engineer re-evaluate the length of
the bridge as a part of their design, and after the results of
the evaluations were reviewed by Dallas County, the bridge was
reduced in length accordingly. To the best of our knowledge,
there were no other outside consultants involved in
determination of the final bridge lengths on behalf of the City
of Coppell or others.
Please call me if you have further questions.
Since~rely, /
~ohn C. Karlsruher,
Senior Engineer

'~dopted a resolution which in effect states that to the extent the City
Council of Coppell has authority to determine whether Belt Line Road should be
relocated, it is the determination of the council that Belt Line Road should
not be relocated. However, it is understood and agreed that the City is free
to change its position on the relocation issue.
