Connell/SkaggsUDrainage Contract between Skyhawk
Venture and the City of Coppell / Follow Up to
the Monday, January 12, 1990 meeting between
Mark Connell, His Engineer and City Staff
As you requested, attached is a summary of alternatives regarding
subject contract. We have committed to Mark Connell to respond to
him within five working days.
Attached is the only documentation (found in the City Secretary's
files) about the participation in the funding of the construction
of the Sandy Lake and Denton Tap Roads intersection. There was no
contract, per se, available. It appears Connell Development
Company could claim a credit of $50,000 (if the transaction took
place (and I understand it did)), from any assessment during the
construction of Sandy Lake Road west of Denton Tap Road. We would
probably need to have another in house meeting before meeting again
with Connell depending how you want this handled.
Please let me know if you need anything else on this matter.
you.

Thank
CONNELL/SKAGGS - SKYHAWK VENTURE
Request For
Revision of the Agreement
with
The City of Coppell
regarding
Drainage Improvements
from
Sandy Lake Road to New High School Culvert
Alternatives
Mark Connell's Request is to allow only partial improvements
at this time due to added costs to him due to trench safety
laws. That is:
Permit Connell to
Build 2- 12' x 4' box culverts along Connell/Skaggs
tract only.
Temporary channel connecting the 2- 12' x 4' box
culvert and the High school's 10 x 8 box culvert.
(This channel does not provide sufficient design
capacity.)
3. Waive any reimbursement.
4. Upon completion of items 1 & 2, then no other
obligations regarding said agreement.
Comments
A 10 x 8 or 2- 12 x 4 box culverts will still be
necessary to be constructed for 668 linear feet
along the Boorhem/Hinckley Properties with possibly
tWO (2) transition structures (estimated costs over
1/4 million dollars) Connell's length is only 556
if (46%) and per his estimate (attached) will cost
(est) $379,000.
2. Connell agreed (1/12/90) to continue to hold City
harmless.
3. Screening wall has to be added in.
Connell's Engineering Report referred to in the
file, needs to be furnished to the city; is not on
file and he has not yet furnished another copy (as
requested by the City Engineer).
5. Lined ditch was estimated to cost $80,000, making
Connell's total cost to be estimated at $460,000.
6. Hinckley probably won't give easements.
City participate in rest of needed funding/$300,O00? with
Connell or waive street assessment (estimated to be
$300,000 with a possible $50,000 credit).
Original agreement with Connell had Connell providing the
funding irrespective of total costs.
City take $345,000, do some minor improvements to protect
property along Shady Dale Lane and hold remaining finds for
when property develops and/or other funding becomes available.
Problems for Each Alternative
Less than design capacity; Connell out of indemnity~hold
harmless to City, possible damage to Shady Dale property and
others including Denton Tap roadway.
B. Costs City now and interest in future.
No problems if Connell performs.
Less than, design capacity, Connell out of indemnity~hold
harmless to city, possible damage to Shady Dale property and
others including Denton Tap roadway.
