Re:
Agreement between Skyhawk _nture and the City of Coppell
providing for future drainage improvements to the Connell
Skaggs Addition dated December 11, 1986
Dear Russell:
As I outlined in my letter of June 27th, Skyhawk Venture requests
that the City of Coppell amend the above referenced agreement to
allow the following:
Skyhawk will design and build a dbuble 12' x 4' box culvert
from Sandy Lake Road to the northern boundary of the
Connell Skaggs Addition.
From the northeast corner of the Connell Skaggs Addition
north to the existing box culvert Skyhawk will grade a
temporary channel.
3. Skyhawk will waive any reimbursement due from the work on
the channel north of the Connell Skaggs Addition.
4. Upon the completion of items 1 and 2 Skyhawk and the City
of Coppell will be relieved of any further obligations
regarding said agreement.
I have enclosed a copy of the original agreement, my June 27th
letter, and a schematic diagram showing the location of the proposed
box culvert and channel. Please call if you need.any additional
information.

Re: Drainage west of~Woodside Village Shopping Center
Dear Russell:
In December of 1986, Skyhawk Venture (Skyhawk) entered into an
agreement (the Agreement) with the city of Coppell (City) whereby
Skyhawk agreed to escrow $345,000.00 with the city to be used for
the construction of a 12'x 8' box culvert along the western
boundary of Woodside Village Shopping Center and continue north
past the Boorhem and Hinkley tracts. When the Boorhem and Hinkley
tracts were platted, the City agreed to assess those owners on a
linear foot basis for the cost of the box culvert and return that
amount to Skyhawk.
Shortly after the Agreement was signed, the Coppell High School
announced their plans which included building the downstream
portion of the box culvert. Since this would allow construction of
the section of the box culvert addressed in the Agreement between
Skyhawk and the City, Skyhawk requested that the city waive the
requirement for Skyhawk to escrow the $345,000.00 and Skyhawk would
proceed with design and construction of the box culvert. However,
because of the impact of the new trench safety laws, the soil
conditions on site and the depth of the cut to install the box, the
low bid came in at $701,000.00.
In order to proceed with an adequate drainage system we propose to
amend the Agreement to allow the following:
(1)
Skyhawk will design and build a double 12' x 4' box
culvert 'from Sandy Lake Road to the northern boundary of
the Woodside Village Tract.
(2)
From the northern boundary of Woodside Village to the
existing box culvert, Skyhawk will grade a temporary
channel.
Or, ce address: 10939 Shady Trail * Dallas, Texas 75220
June 27, 1989
Mr. Doyle
(3)
Skyhawk will waive any reimbursement due from the work on
the channel north of Woodside Village.
This plan will allow us to proceed within the $345,000.00 budget
and alleviate the drainage problems we have recently experienced in
this area. I am available to meet with you at your convenience to
answer any additional questions you may have.
Sincerely yours,

WITNESSETH:
manager
WHEREAS, Conneli is the ~wn~ of that traet of land shown on Exhibit 1, which
said Exhibit is attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes; and
WUEREAS, Conneli has filed Exhibit i as a preliminary subdivision plat and the
City Council of the City of CoppeU has heretofore approved said preliminary subdivision
plat subject to development of a drainage plan satisfactory to the City Engineer; and
· WHEREAS, the original drainage plan requested by the City Engineer Included
the construction of a 10-foot by 8-foot single concrete box culvert (box eulvert) along
the west end of the Connell tract as.shown on Exhibit i between Point A and Point
B, said box culvert eonstituting the required improvement on said property necessary
to handle the drainage across said property u~oon complete bulidout and development of
..upstream properties and the Conneli tract; and
WHEREAS, it has been determined that the box culvert if constructed at this
point in time would be deeper than the natural drainage area to the north (downstream)
and would form a e~lleetlng reservoir until such time es the downstream property is
developed with a similar connecting box. culvert; and that this condition makes it not
feasible to construct the box culvert on the Connell property until the box culvert can
be extended to the north across property now owned by Mr. and Mrs. Boorhem immediately
to the north and the Hinckley property immediately north'of the Boorhem property; and
WHEREAS, it appears that the Boorhem property, the Hlnekley property, as well
as Lot 3 shown on the ConneU tract are not presently ready for development, but that
Lots 1, 2 and 4 of the Connell tract are ready for present development; and
WHEREAS, engineering data supplied to the City .by. ConneU shows that the
present development of Lots 1; 2 and 4 of the'Connell tra~t will n0~'requlre installatl'on '
of the box culvert at this time and that' drainage attributable"t~ s;id 'Lots' i', 2 and 4

of properties upstream from the Connell tract; and
WHEREAS, ConneH has therefore requested the City to approve the final platting
of its subdivision in two (2) phases, the first phase to include Lots 1, 2 and 4 and the
second phase to be comprised of Lot 3 on Exhibit I; that said first phase be approved
based upon Connell's engineering plan in regard to drainage, which provides that adequate
site drainage may be accomplished by using the existing channel loeated at the west
side of the Connell tract and that Phase Two consisting of Lot 3 of Exhibit ! be
approved subject to the drainage conditions hereinafter set out.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein expressed,
the parties agree as follows:
I. That Connell will amend its preliminary plat so that when it is presented
for final plat approval it will be submitted in two (2) phases, each phase to eonstitutt:
a separate and distinct final plat for recording purposes; that the City Engineer will,
pursuant to directions from the City Council, approve such preliminary plat pursuant
to the drainage plan set forth herein. Phase One shah consist of Lots i, 2 and 4 as
shown on Exhibit ! attached hereto, and Phase Two shah consist of Lot 3 as shown
on Exhibit i. Provided, however~ other languaR'e.herein notwithstanding~ Connell reserves
.She right to submit the lots listed In Phase One as separate final plats for recordinF.

Dear Mr. Doyle:
In response to H. Wayne Ginn's letter to your office dated July 17, 1989 regarding the
refereneed box culvert improvements, we would like to make the following comments:
1. The ditch proposed between the north property line of the Connell Skaggs site, and
the existing 10'x8' box culvert at the south line of the high sehool site, is temporary
until such time as the proposed box eulvert is extended northward.
2. As correctly pointed out in Mr. Ginn's letter, this ditch does not meet City of
Coppell Standards or Subdivision Ordinanee Requirements, and is not adequately
sized to handle the anticipated ultimate runoff. However, it is an improvement over
the current drainage situation in this arco.
If you have any questions, please give me a call.
Very sincerely,
POWELL & POWELL

Connell Skaggs Addition
Box Culvert Along West Property Line
JUL I 3 1989
Dear Mr. Doyle:
Pursuant to your request for review of the above referenced
project, we offer the following comments.
We reviewed the plans submitted by Powell and Powell, in
conjunction with the attached letter. In a cursory review we
found the following:
In lieu of a 10'x8' box culvert from Sandy Lake Road
northward to north of Willow Lane, proposal is to construct
2-12'x4' box culverts along Connell Skaggs Addition; open
channel with 3 to 1 side slopes along Boorhem property; and,
open channel with 1.5 to i side slopes along Hinckley
property.
If the 2-12'x4' boxes were extended the full length, (ie.,
no open ditches) and connected to the lO'xS' at Willow Lane,
then from a hydraulic standpoint there would be no
appreciable difference in what was previously proposed and
what the revision in proposing.
The ditch along Hinckley's property is not adequately sized
to handle the anticipated flows.
Both ditches, as proposed, do not meet City of Coppell
standards, criteria, or subdivision ordinance requirements.
Other than stated above, we have no further comments or concerns.
Should you have any questions, please contact us.
Sincerely,
HWG/GF/dsp
