EE: Second Access to Coppert Bigh Schoo|
Dear Mr. Hickicy,
This letter is written as a followup to our previous telephone conversation concerning a second point of
access to the Coppe|] Bigh School along the south side of Buntington Pjdg¢ and Sonic. There have been
some conversations with residents in Buntington Ridge and the CISD concerning this access. The Cibr of
Coppert Engineering Department has taken those comments trader advisement and has prepared four
alternates for the construction of a 2nd point of access into the high school.
T~¢ attached exhibits show where the roadway would transverse ),our properb' to give a general idea of
the amount right-of-wa), necessary to construction an), of the four alternates. It is m), opinion that
alternate number one is the most desirable to the residents because it presen, es two large 36" Pecan
Trees midway through the project. Obyiousl),, a|ternate number one also has the most impact on ),our
property. A|ternat¢ number two is a straight shot ~rom the existing roadway to the high school, however,
it is placed approximately 15' off the existing brick fence. Construction of aiternate number two would
cause the removal or the two 36" Pecan Trees. Alternate number t~ee proposes to place the roadwa),
approximatel), 8.5' ~rom the brick fence for a distance and then transitioning south to miss the two 36"
Pecan Trees. Alternate number four has the least impact on ),our property, but the greatest impact to the
residents to the north. It places the roadway 8.5' off the fence and removes the two 36" Pecan Trees.
T~ere is no fina|ized design on this project, nor commitments made at t~is time to construct it. Bowever,
it is my opinion that the second point or ingress/engfess is needed to the high school.
Please provide me with reedback and input at your earliest convenience on the rout alternates. ~ would
be happ), to meet wit~ either ),ou or your engineer to discuss the alternates and to go more indepth about
the project itse|f. If you have an), questions or need an), additional information please fee| ~ree to contact
me at ),our convenience at 9?2/304-36?9.
Again, thank :you for ),our consideration of these alternates and I look forward to heating ~rom :you in the
near [uture.
Sincetel),,
