The meeting was held to discuss the routing and maintenance requirements for the
sanitary sewer force main required for the U.S. Postal Service project.
Plans showing the proposed routing were presented. The proposed location for
the force main from the U.S.P.S. east property line to the existing manhole at
Freeport Parkway and Bethel Road is approximately 7 ft. north of the proposed
R.O.W. of Bethel Road as shown on the Bethel Road Box Culvert plans prepared by
DeShazo, Starek, and Tang. The proposed R.O.W. is the north line of the
drainage easement for the box culverts. The City will review the routing with
Ginn, Inc.
The ownership of the tract of land between the box culvert drainage easement and
the existing Bethel Road R.O.W. was questioned. (After the meeting the drainage
easements and R.O.W. dedication documents signed by Minyards were reviewed and
it was confirmed that the tract had been dedicated as public R.O.W.)
The possibility of there being a sanitary sewer line west of the Minyard
facilities was questioned. MSQ will contact Howard Pafford in Public Works to
confirm.
The maintenance of the force main was discussed. The U.S. Postal Service will
maintain the portion of the force main on their property and desires that the
City maintain the portion in the public R.O.W. The City will agree to maintain
the public portion of the force main provided the Postal Service prepares an
agreement with the City that would allow City forces to turn off the lift sta-
tion in the event repairs are necessary. The City would also like to have a
valve on the line at the U.S.P.S. east property line as a backup measure. The
agreement would also need to state that the City of Coppell would be held
harmless if the line broke and raw sewage was pumped into the public R.O.W.
