Parcel 60 - Permanent Drainage Easement
Dear Mr. Foster:
This is a follow-up to our December 8, 2005 letter regarding the city s need for a
drainage easement from your property located at 600 Mitchell Street. The drainage
easement has been designated as Parcel 60, and is necessary for the reconstruction of
Bethel Road (Freeport Parkway to Denton Tap) and Coppell Road (Cooper Lane to
Bethel Road). Both roads will be reconstructed as two-lane concrete roadways with
improved drainage and sidewalks. Construction in the Old Coppell area includes
landscaping and enl1anced pavement features.
The City of Coppell is offering $1.50 per square foot for the drainage easement.
Drainage easements permanently encumber th~ property and are typically acquired at
one-half the value of right-of.way. The land value for the right-of-way is taken from the
Dallas Central Appraisal District. This letter constitutes an offer from the City of
Coppell for the acquisition of right-of-way as follows
Parcel 60
I. Acquisition of permanent drainage easement at $1.50/sq. ft. x 1608 sq. ft. $2,412.00
Construction is scheduled to start in the yd quarter of 2008 and the city needs to acquire
the right-of-way as soon as possible. If the above offer is acceptable, please sign below
and return to this office. Once the letter is received, the process for payment of the
S2,412.00 can start. The city respectfully requests your execution of the enclosed-
drainage easement document. When the check is ready, we can arrange a mutually
agreeable method to exchange the documents and the check.
