Country Estates-CS 920330 Coppell, Texas 75019  ~_____~ The City With A Beautiful Future 214-462-O022 March 30, 1992 Mr. Mike Daniel, P.E. Nathan D. Maier Three Northpark 8800 N. Central Expressway, Suite 300 Dallas, TX 75231 Re: Country Estates Dear Mr. Daniel: The City of Coppell has received and reviewed the referenced plans and has the following comments to offer: 1} Landscaping plans should be provided. 2} The plans should be labeled as construction plans. 3} You have indicated that you are trying to save and preserve the existing trees on this site. However, based on the cuts for Shorewood Drive, the home builders will have to slope about 30 to 40 foot of the tot to obtain an acceptable slope or they will have to build retaining walls adjacent to Shorewood Drive. My opinion is that you should consider raising the streets between Station 4 + 00 and Station 11 + 00 of Shorewood Drive. 4) In lieu of providing a 5 foot by 35 foot drainage easement, the alley width should be widened to 20 foot. 5) The offsite drainage area with calculations should.be provided. 6) The proposed system between Lots 10 and 11 should be extended to the east property line. 7} Erosion control should be provided at the outfall of all systems. 8) The outfall of the proposed system on the cul-de-sac to Harris Street should be turned to flow with the creek. 9) If the system between Lots 10 and 11 is not extended, a better erosion prevention plan should be provided as opposed to just seeding the area. Letter to Mr. Mike Daniel, P.E. March 30, 1992 Page 2 10) The outfall velocity in Line B should be slowed to help prevent erosion. 11) Please fully explain and comment why you are now proposing to outfall your sewer line across the creek into the existing 12" sanitary sewer south of this development instead of tieing into the proposed 8" sewer line in }{arris Street, as previously shown. Any aerial crossing will require a floodplain permit and modeling to determine the effect on the water surface elevat ions. 12) The lot grading plan for the corner of Shorewood and Bethel School Road does not match what is shown on the drainage area map. Once these comments have been addressed, the revised set of plans and this markup set of plans should be resubmitted to the City for review. If you should have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me at your convenience. Sincerely, Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E. City Engineer KMG/Dd COUNTRY
