We would like to request that the 1 O-foot utility easement that runs North &
South on the West side of our property be researched and if no restrictions are
present that this easement be abandoned. Please inform us of your findings.
Thank you for your consideration,

RE: 200 Beechwood Lane
Coppell, TX 75019
Statement of Easement Value
To Whom It May Concern:
At the time this lot was developed, two 10' utilits,' easements were created ... one along the west side of the
propert?' and one along the north side of the property. When this sub-division was developed, this lot was
the last lot on the west end Beechwood Lane of the Pecan Hollow sub-division which is why I feel it was
burdened with two 10' utility easements.
The adjoining sub-division (The Parks of Coppell) has now been fully developed and the utilities placed
elsewhere.
Due to the fact that there appears to be no need for the west side utility easement on lot 1, block C, Pecan
Hollow, I feel it should be abandoned at this time with no value attached to it.
Sincerely,
I
