My husband and I recently bought a home located at 258 Winding Hollow Lane in
Coppell. Shortly before our purchase we were informed that there exists an abandoned
utility easement running through the back yard. With your help, we would like to have
the utility easement released on this property. Letters of release have been sent fi.om all of
the necessary utility companies and our realtor, Enid Ellis, has provided an estimation of
the property's value. If there is anything else we need do to help further our cause, please
call us at (972) 304-4167. We greatly appreciate your help in this matter.
Thank you,

Dear Mr. & Mrs. McGraw:
We have determined that the cost of the utility easement, which is at the rear of
your residence, calculates out to $0.02 per square foot. Therefore the 1,014
square foot easement valuation is $20.28.
If I can be of further assistance, or answer any~questions, please feel free to
give me a call.
