I think what needs to be clarified is whether the poles are going on the south or north side of the sidewalk.
The plans provided aren't clear but Keith Marvin can tell you this with one question.

Ms. Lawson,
I'm attaching an exhibit that our engineer created based on the Oncor pole locations they have marked.
All poles fall within the city right of way. Unless their pole locations conflict with any city improvements,
we have little to no authority to dictate where they go within that right of way.
Oncor and all other public utilities are regulated by various state and federal agencies. The City of
Coppell does not regulate their work. As a public utility they have a right to be in the city right of way.
I hope this information is helpful to you.
Keith

In sincere respect, yes Margaret,
did grant an easement
the landowner to the City of Coppell, for monetary consideration -
we did not grant an easement to Oncor. (I have negotiated electrical easements on commercial property
in my past)
respectful in communication
The city of coppell engineering associate Keith (cc above) has been very
to the rights of a landowner.

The Oncor group (as well as City contractors) has left garbage on the property and met with the city
over our property line
contractor - who went to cut limbs and trees,
without the property owner permission.
Workmen have had no respect as to where they;
1. place vehicles;
2. leave trash;
3. and property damage....major damage to the fence occured between city lack of control of flooding and
past Oncor tree contractors dropping limbs onto the top of the fence, splitting off the boards.
homeowner
4. trespass onto property - not owned by Oncor, nor the city, nor granted easement into
property rights
.
5. I have had hundreds of dollars of water stolen by water trucks...
Please, do not tell me how concientous utility and city subcontractor crews are.
Therefore, in meetings with Keith, he has been kind enough to let me know where the poles would be
placed, in the city right easement - granted to Oncor by the CITY OF COPPELL.
I would have preferred buried lines, as the poles in the unstable ground tend to not stay straight....and we
have wind shearing in Coppell - just drive sandy lake to and view the poles...
___________________/
Keep your crews garbage picked up and do not trespass without permission for specific work. Do not
access
my water.
Thank you for your consideration and again, would appreciate you placing the statement sent on an
email----in WRITING TO THE ABOVE REFERENCED POST OFFICE BOX, SINCE YOUR NOTICE
WAS UNDELIVERABLE.
RESPECTFULLY -
Christina Lawson

This email should be your statement in writing. I do not have a plat that will show the location of the
poles. You keep referring to an “easement”. You have not granted an easement. Where Oncor is

placing the poles/wires is located in the new right of way of Sandy Lake Road. This property is now
owned by the City of Coppell. There will be no Oncor facilities on your private property.

Dear Ms. Lawson,
There will be no Oncor facilities located on your private property. All facilities will be located within the
new City right of way of Sandy Lake Road. This right of way is now owned by the City. The existing
service to your house will remain the same as it is right now.
Thank you,
Margaret Lein

Margaret,
The mailbox was continually being damaged by unkowns, having been located on the corner of Oak Trail
and Sandy Lake, therefore, all mail is to be
sent to
Barbara Martin, Christina Lawson
PO Box 2432
Coppell, Tx 75019
A. The electrical lines moved to the interior of the easement - and may I suggest the "middle" - should
not affect the existing tree limbs which are not hanging over the easement.
B. If the power lines hang over the private property of Martin, at all, then Oncor will receive a letter to
"move" the power lines from the homeowners, as they have no rights, from the Martin's attorney. In
simple English, Oncor cannot place a pole on the edge of the easement and mount power lines in the air
space over the property line of the homeowner.
C. I would appreciate a rendering demonstrating where in the air space the power lines will be placed.
D. Clean up the trash and do not trespass on Martin property, without notice of need. Do not park trucks
or allow workmen to use the property at will and do not use the utilities (water). Every contractor of the
city has left trash on the property.
E. The electrical connection should be a splice from where the existing electrical pole is, which meets our
underground utility. We paid for underground utilities to the pole, so that the sparks from the wires
would not cause a fire. Being on the corner, we receive more electrical surges then other properties.
Please advise that no overhead wires to the property are permitted...and that Oncor will respect the
connection and previous work by the homeowner for a connection.
Be on notice, Oncor and the City of Coppell contractors, violated trust when they entered the property
and cut limbs which were on the property owners
land. A free for all cutting of the remaining trees will not be tolerated. Trash remaining will not be
tolerated. The trees have had pictures taken as to the status. Butchering trees at whim damages them
and leaves them at the mercy of pests and weather to heal.
I would appreciate confirmation - from the city of coppell, as well as oncor, in honoring the underground
connection that is in place at this time, to the existing pole and that another connection to that area is
the responsibility of Oncor, as to the movement of the pole, further into the city easement.
I was told, that with the easement, everything would be as the same connections that exist, just
modified as to where the new pole would be set further into the easement.
Please send a plat of pole location, wire location and acknowledgement of underground electrical wire
splice to new location.
My mother, Barbara Martin, purchased the home and I have an interest in the property, due to major
illness of fractured legs and jaw. I am still power of attorney as to the 101 Oak Trail property and
management of her estate.

As you are aware, the widening of Sandy Lake Road has forced Oncor Electric Delivery Company
to relocate its overhead power line to the new right of way line acquired by the City of Coppell.
The relocation of the overhead line to the new right-of-way and the need to trim the trees on
your property to allow the safe and reliable operation of the line has caused you great concern.
Due to your concerns, at this time, Oncor and the City of Coppell have agreed to construct a
section of this overhead line adjacent to your property further into the new right-of-way in
order to minimize the impact of the current tree clearance requirements on your property.
This clearance is for the safety of the public and the integrity of the service provided to the
community.
As a result of this new route for the overhead line, in connection with the construction of this
line, Oncor will only trim the tree limbs that extend beyond your property line into the new
right of way of Sandy Lake Road in order to achieve our current clearance requirements.
Please accept this letter as your notification that the overhead electric line in the new right-of-
way will be constructed in the next few weeks along with the necessary trimming of tree limbs
that extend into the new right-of-way.
Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact myself at 214-486-2206 or
Richard Brewster at 214-486-4245.
Sincerely,
Margaret Lein
