Dear Mr. Toole:
The City of Coppell removed the form boards, post tension cabl
and polyurethane covering from the Lakes of Coppell for a variety
of reasons primarily to protect users from the immediate neigbborh~4p.~¢
from injury. This was the neighborhoods desire as it remained
unfinished, had deteriorated to the point that the covering was blowing
throughout the site into their property and was creating a weed problem.
The City P*r~ o_C~q.~ulta~, at the request of staff, evaluated those
materials and reco~e---~-d-ded removal as in his opinion, they had been
exposed to the weather for some time causing deterioration which ma¥~, ~/__
have led to future problems with the finished product.
The primary concern of all groups was that work was not progressing
toward resolution and no time frame for completion given. Without
assurances from your firm as to when this was to be resumed, a decision
was made to remove the materials and dispose of them.
I hope this clarifies the circumstances which led to the removal of
the items and identifies at whose recommendations that removal took
place.
Sincerely,
'HL ' ,'
