Attention: Mr. Ken Griffin, City Engineer
RE: 409 Meadowcreek Road, Coppell, TX
Statement of Land Value
I have reviewed the survey for the additional parcel of land known as "Boundary Survey"
Abstract No. 312, volume 87203, Page 5616 of D.R.D.C.T. (see attachment), and have
concluded that the price of the easement (135 ft by 20 ft) to be abandoned should be
$131.32.
I arrived at this figure by taking the purchase price of the tract, $1500, (see
attachment) and divided it by 30,840 square feet in total tract. This figure of $.049/ sq. ft.
was then multiplied by the total square feet in the easement , 2700 square feet.
Sincerely,
