Re: City of Coppell
Sandy Lake Road Water Line
(Denton Tap Road to Wagon Wheel Ranch Elevated Tank)
Dear Mr. Allison:
We have completed our design of Sandy Lake Road Water Line, from Denton Tap Road to the Wagon Wheel
Ranch Elevated Storage Tank, for the City of Coppell. During our last review meeting with the City of
Coppe!l, we learned the proposed water line included in your firm's design of improvements to Sandy Lake
Road, east of Denton Tap Road, may not be competed prior the our project· As such, the City has requested
we include the construction of the proposed 24-inch water line across Denton Tap Road and connect to the
existing 16-inch water line on the east side of the intersection.
As we discussed last week, we are enclosing one set of our construction plans for the Sandy Lake Road Water
Line west of Denton Tap Road. Please review sheet 11 of our plans and compare it to your proposed
improvements at this intersection· We are open to either incorporating your plans for this intersection into
our plans, or making the necessary revisions in the intersection directly on our plans and changing the limits
of our scope of work. Once you have completed your review, please give me a call so that we can make the
necessary arrangements to resolve this last issue on our project.
In the meantime, if you could send us a copy of your most recent plans for the paving, drainage and utility
improvements to the Sandy Lake Road/Denton Tap Road intersection, we can begin our review of the
revisions required.
The City has scheduled to advertise this project for construction early this spring, as its completion is critical
to the proper operation of the water distribution system and the proposed Wagon Wheel Ranch elevated
storage tank· Thank you for your cooperation on this portion of our project. We look forward to working
with you in assisting the City of Coppell. We are available to discuss the project further at your convenience.
Sincerely yours,
·
