Dear Nlr Hoxland:
This icttcr is written in response D the rcccnt lcttcr rcccncd conccrning thc ~vidcning of Sandy L~c
Road Your concerns ~crc that a n~cd~an opening nccdcd to bc locatcd somcwhcrc along thc frontage
o1' ~our propca>'. At this point. it is lOO Cg]v tO tell where the mcdi~ openings x~ill be spaccd along
Sand~ t,akc Road. Ho~c~cr, thc firq priorit> ~ill bc to provide access to the adjacent strccts in the
x icinitx of the proposcd church. Prcccdmg wcstx~ard from Moorc Road, thcrc arc several strccts on thc
south side of Sandy Lake Road that x~'ould nccd consideration of median openings,
Our Subdivision Ordinance Rules and Regulations spccit~' that the minimum distance from nose to nosc
lbr a mcdian opcning is 420 fcct As ~ou can scc, ~t is going to be vc~' difficult to provide median
opening access to even drivc~av and street located along Sandy Lake Road. As additional intBnnation,
our Subdn~ston Rulcs also state that ~hcn median openings and left-turn lanes z~c constructed to scn'c
pn~alc dri~cs_ thcv shall bc constructed to Citx standards. inspected by City Inspectors, and paid for by
oxenors scs'cd by thc median openings and thc lcft-turn lanes. As pat of the street widcning progrmn.
the ('li~ is responsible for the cost of pn~viding median opcnings that scn'e dedicated streets.
Your letter also statcs that thcrc should bc opportunitics to provide input during the process of design.
There ma~ bc somc public mcctings conccrning Sandx Lakc Road, but at this timc, it is too e~dv to
dctcrm ~nc when or if thcrc will bc public mcctings
It is anticipated that a dcsign contract ~ill be let l~r Sandy Lake Road some time in 1992· You should
check ~Hh Ken Griffin, lhc City Engineer, in early 1993 to dctcminc the status of the project.
Thank xou tbr your commitmcnt lo the City of Coppcll by the future construction of your church on
Sandx l.akc Road If you should have an~ addilional questions concerning this project, please fccl
to coatact either the City Engineer or me
