Box 478 Coppell, Texas 75019 Re: Case No. S-1177, Firestone Dear Mr. Sieb: My purpose in ,aTiting is to inform you that Firestone is withdrawing the SUP application. Firestone has determined th. at it would be too c. ostly to build a building in a community where the building would not be visible to the public. Even though we did everything required to comply with, the ordinances, the P & Z commission saw fit to attempt to add further restrictions to this project. I will return your Public Hearing sign in the near future. If you have any questions, please contact me. 2ames M. Corkill. FAHA./AIA J.-[C rdb X~c" Hank Quigg. R~chmond Group Stea-art Green.
