Subject: Winding Hollow Neighborhood Meeting
Good afternoon. I wanted to touch base and thank you once again for your attendance at our meeting on Saturday
morning. We received valuable input from you concerning the construction of Sandy Lake Road, and the impact it is
having on your neighborhood. The following steps were taken today to address some of these concerns:
1. Insufficient lighting at the intersection – The City has requested Oncor to expedite the installation of a
temporary light on the power pole at the northeast corner of the intersection of Sandy Lake and Winding
Hollow.
2.Poor visibility exiting Winding Hollow onto Sandy Lake – The suggestion was made to install a temporary all-
way stop at this intersection during construction. This has been approved, and will be installed no later than the
end of the day on Wednesday. The signs on Sandy Lake will have flashers installed to alert the drivers of this
important changed condition.
3.The monument sign at the entry is in the way and not lit – This sign is slated to be removed and replaced as
part of the project. The contractor will expedite the sign removal, and we will work with representatives of the
neighborhood to develop a new design for the sign and median landscaping upon replacement.
4.The Pavestone retaining wall is not attractive – We are discussing our options internally to address this
issue. The city is leaning towards additional landscape screening in front of this wall.
The safety concerns you brought up at the meeting are very important to us, and as such will be addressed as quickly as
possible. The aesthetic issues may take a little longer to resolve, but we will continue working on them until we reach an
appropriate resolution.
