RE: Brick Pavers, Coppell Road Ditch, and Fence on Park Property
Dear Mr. Pettijohn:
This letter is in response to the concerns you expressed during the
Council meeting on February 11, 1992. The following will provide
you a status of these concerns.
You commented on the asphalt repairs used on brick pavers along
MacArthur Blvd. and other area streets. The repairs with the
asphalt are done as temporary measures from time to time to
eliminate the immediate road hazard. The permanent repairs are
scheduled for these areas based on the weather conditions and
availability of the rental equipment needed to do the repairs. In
fact, the permanent repairs were scheduled for these pavers the
week of the Council meeting and had already been started at the
time of your comments to the Council.
One of your other concerns is the ditch along Coppell Ro~d in front
of the Devonshire development. This retaining wall system was
placed as an interim solution by the developer to accommodate the
drainage and a sidewalk for the children to get to school. Staff
is currently working with the developer to have a guardrail system
placed along this ditch line which we feel will eliminate the
potential hazard which may exist at this location.
The third and final concern mentioned regarded the new fencing
which has been placed at the leased park property located on Bethel
Road. As a result of the transfer of title by the Baptist
Foundation of Texas to Dallas County for the Grapevine Springs Park
site, there now exists a small strip of County Park property which
fronts Bethel Road and travels southward along Grapevine Creek.
The new fence was installed by the Baptist Foundation of Texas to
identify the new property line created once sale to Dallas County
was complete. ~.~. ~ .~ ,~ ~.. ~L~% TO

questions posed. I would like to thank you for your interest in
the City of Coppell and encourage you to contact my office should
you have any future questions.
