ALTERNATIVE PROPOSAL
As used in this proposal the term "area in question" shall mean that
area east of Denton Tap Road and north of Denton Creek. In the final
agreement this area will be marked on a map attached as an exhibit.
The term "water line" as used in this proposal shall mean that water
line located in the corporate limits of the City of Lewisville that runs
through the area in question and along the boundary line between
Lewisville and Coppell. Such water line shall be marked on the map
attached to the final agreement.
The "sewer line" as used in this proposal shall be marked on the map
attached to the final agreement.
SERVICE TO AREA IN QUESTION:
As the area in question develops Coppell shall have the right to make
unlimited connections to the water line in order to serve the customers
of the area. At each connection Coppell will install or cause to be
installed a water meter. Such meters shall be installed by Coppell
outside the spine road right-of-way in accordance with City of Coppell
standards. Such meters shall remain the property of the City of Coppell
and shall be serviced by the City of Coppell. Lewisville will supply
Coppell with sufficient water to serve the customers of the area in
question through these receiving meters.
WATER CHARGE:
Lewisville shall bill the City of Coppell monthly at the rate of $0.80
per 1,000 gallons of water actually used based upon readings from the
water meters. The final agreement will outline a procedure for meter
reading and verification by both Cities.
Coppell shall coordinate and inform Lewisville before installing any
additional fire hydrants on the water line, however, installation of
fire hydrants and other connections for fire service on the Coppell side
of such meters shall be of the discretion of Coppell and pursuant to the
City of Coppell ordinances, fire codes, and regulations. The City of
Coppell shall be responsible for the meter and all facilities on the
Coppell side of the meter. Lewisville shall be responsible for and
shall service all facilities and lines up to the meter.
SEWER SERVICE:
The City of Lewisville will accept sewer service from Coppell generated
by customers in the area in question and will bill the City of Coppell
monthly at the rate of $0.98 per 1,000 gallons. Such billing shall be
based upon reading the water meters serving the area, except those water
meters installed for irrigation purposes only and meters set up for fire
service only. The City of Coppell will impose on its customers the
industrial waste requirements and regulations in accordance with any
ordinances and regulations of the City of Coppe11.
GENERAL PROVISIONS:
At such time that the City of Coppell, at its discretion, shall
determine that it is more economically feasible for the City of Coppell
to serve the area in question directly throuEh its water and/or sewer
system, Coppell shall have the option of terminating the agreement and
the City of Lewisville will cooperate with the City of Coppell in
working-out such a change over.
