MEMORANDUM
Jim Witt, City Manager
Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., City Engineer
Denton Tap Road
December 21, 1993
On December 21, 1993, Mike Martin and I, met with Mr. Tom Dingler, Director of
Engineering for the City of Lewisville, concerning Denton Tap Road. Mr. Dingler scheduled
the meeting to inform the City that Lewisville will be constructing Denton Tap Road from the
interchange of F.M. 3040 and S.H. 121 to Highland Drive as a six lane divided roadway. They
will also be constructing a three lane asphalt roadway from Highland Drive to the Spur 553.
There will be an asphalt transition in the City of Coppell to transition back to the existing two
lanes. Also, there will be an extension of the storm sewer pipe to allow for the drainage of the
roadway. The extension of storm sewer pipe will be contained almost entirely within the City
of Coppell, however, it would be constructed at the City of Lewisville's cost.
Mr. Dingler is unsure of the exact timetable. He stated that this was part of a five-year bond
election that has been approved and the plans are currently under design. The project could
happen within one year, or within five years.
Mr. Dingier stated that once the plans were finalized, he would provide a copy to the City of
Coppell for a courtesy review to insure that any work within the City limits of Coppell met our
specifications and/or requirements.
This information is passed along as information only. At this time there is no action to be taken
on the part of the City. If you should have any questions, or need any additional information,
please feel free to contact me at your convenience.
