Dear Ms. Bowman:
Please find attached information regarding partial assignment of the
City contract between Univest and ABQ. As you know, the City of Coppell
entered into a contract with The Parks of Coppell Joint Venture on
December 30, 1982. When ABQ purchased the property from the Parks of
Coppell Joint Venture II, a partial assignment of the above referenced
City contract was executed. The documents are attached.
In this City contract, more specifically Article 4 paragraph 2.d,
there is allowance for the Heartz Road to be built with 24 foot of
paving. This 24 foot width of paving shall be sufficient until such
time as the final plat is filed of record for the property on the
opposite side of the road. Therefore, it is the request of ABQ that the
City of Coppell honor this City contract and allow for the Heartz Road
preliminary Plat to proceed on through the approval process with the
half section as it is proposed.
ABQ understands the City's reluctance to approve half section streets
and ABQ will do everything in their power to contact and convince the
owner of the Ruth Perkins Tract to donate or dedicate the right-of-way
required to complete the paving width of Heartz Road.
ABQ will update the City of Coppell as to the progress of this effort.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,
,J'~_~. Chester,

RE:
JP No. 88009; Heartz Road Preliminary
Plat; Coppell, Texas
Dear Taryon:
Enclosed are six prints of the Preliminary Plat of Heartz Road
from Sandy Lake Road to Parkway Boulevard and two prints each of
the Water and Sewer Plan, Drainage Plan, and the Conceptual
Landscape Plan showing proposed facilities in the Heartz Road
Right-of-Way. Also enclosed is a copy of a letter report to Mr.
Jay Chester of ABQ Development Corporation dated November 17,
1988, giving the results of a study prepared by our firm of
sanitary sewer facilities in the platted section of Heartz Road.
An exhibit showing the sanitary sewer service area is attached
with the aforementioned letter report.
This letter and the enclosed drawings are submitted to the City
in response to comments on the original submittal that were
provided at the Development Review Committee meeting on October
25, 1988. Following is a summary of the major issues and our
responses.
1. West half of the proposed Right-of-Way for 621 feet
north of Sandy Lake Road.
The centerline of Heartz Road north of Sandy Lake Road
coincides with the east property line of the Town
Center Site. Survey studies have determined that a
strip of land of unknown ownership lies between the
Parks of Coppell Joint Venture II property and the Ruth
Perkins property north of Sandy Lake Road. This strip
of land constitutes most of the remaining 30 feet of
Right-of-Way required for Heartz Road in this area.
The balance of the eastern half of the Right-of-Way
between Sandy Lake Road and the ABQ property must be
obtained from the Perkins tract.
320 Vv'estway Place, Suite 50! · Arlington, Texas 76018 * Metro {817) 467-2418 · (817] 465-0259
Ms. Taryon Bowman
JP No. 88009
December 1, 1988
Page 2 of 4
ABQ Development has requested the Coppell office of
Ticor Title to research title to this strip of land
north of Sandy Lake Road and to establish current
ownership of the Perkins tract. A copy of the letter
report received from Ticor Title is attached to this
letter.
ABQ Development and the Parks of CopDell Joint Venture
II (PCJV II) have committed financial resources to
construct Heartz Road where the proposed roadway is
located on their respective properties. Since only
one-half of the roadway Right-of-Way is located within
the ownership of either PCJV II or ABQ for 621 feet
north of Sandy Lake Road, and since no legal
authorization has been secured to construct any
improvements outside of the limits of PCJV II or ABQ
property, a variance to construct only the west half of
Heartz Road is requested in this area. ABQ and PCJV II
will provide sanitary sewer, water and storm drainage
facilities in the proposed half street section. In
addition, if either the property owner or the City of
Coppell will agree to pay for construction of the west
half of the roadway adjacent to the Perkins tract, ABQ
will provide engineering to design the full roadway
section in this area.
2. 209 feet centerline radius south of Parkway Boulevard
Development Review Committee comments indicate that the
Subdivision Ordinance requires a minimum radius of 425
feet for any street within the City. This minimum
radius is based on a design speed of 30 m.p.h. Many
streets, however, have centerlines with a radius
considerably less than 425 feet.
A variance is requested to permit a 209 foot centerline
radius in Heartz Road south of Parkway Boulevard in
order that the roadway centerline may coincide with the
property line between the PCJV II and ABQ properties.
Technical justification for this request is based on
the location of the radius in question and traffic flow
in the proposed intersection.
Ail traffic on proposed Heartz Road just south of
Parkway Boulevard will be in a "Stopping" or
"Accelerating Condition". No through traffic will
occur since Heartz Road will not be continued north of
Parkway Boulevard. Therefore vehicle speed in the
proposed 209 foot radius curve should be substantially
Ms. Taryon Bowman
JP No. 88009
December 1, 1988
Page 3 of 4
less than the design speed typically used for collector
or even local streets since the location of this curve
is at an intersection where traffic is required to come
to a complete stop or execute a 90 degree turn upon
entering or leaving the 209 foot radius curve.
3. Sanitary Sewer Capacity
We have prepared an analysis of the sanitary sewer
facilities in Heartz Road north of Sandy Lake Road in
the Right-of-Way being platted. A copy of our letter
report and exhibit showing the sanitary sewer service
area is enclosed.
The results of our study indicate that the capacity of
the existing eight-inch sanitary sewer from
approximately 1000 feet north of Sandy Lake Road to
Parkway Boulevard is deficient with a fully developed
service area. We have sized a parallel sewer pipe for
this area such that the total capacity of both pipes
exceeds the design loadings. Conceptual design of the
parallel sanitary sewer facilities has been added to
the Water and Sanitary Sewer Plan enclosed. Please
review this study and advise us whether the parallel
sewer facilities are acceptable as shown so that we may
proceed with the final design.
4. Water Main
Twelve-inch valves have been added to the proposed
water main at 600 feet intervals. Five hydrants have
also been added at 300 foot maximum spacing.
Compliance with other comments regarding required easements,
construction details, brick pavers at Parkway Boulevard, etc.
will be addressed in preparation of the Final Plat and
construction plans. Analysis of the linear park channel will
also be addressed in the design phase.
I trust that the information presented herein satisfys the
concerns of the Development Review Committee and will permit the
Preliminary Plat approval process to proceed.
It is our understanding that this Preliminary Plat will be on the
Planning & Zoning Commission agenda on December 15, 1988.

Section 10-5-2 C of the Sign Ordinance which concerns the
maximum size and height along with setbac~ requirements for
monument signs. The variance is required by goodyear for the
property located at 825 MacArthur.
Chief Building Official Dale Jackson made the presentation to the
Council. Mr. Joe Decker, representing the applicant, was also present
to discuss this item with the Council. It was indicated to the Council
that due to the size of this lot, and the width in the front of the lot,
it is impossible for the applicant to comply with City regulations
concerning placement of the sign. The second variance, size of the
sign, is requested due to the grade of the property which sits lower
than the bridge, therefore, the applicant feels that s larger sign is
requested in order to be noticed by oncoming traffic. Following
discussion on this item, Councilman Morton moved that the item be tabled
for further review by the City Attorney. Mayor Pro Tam Wilkerson
seconded the motion; motion carried 7-0 with Mayor Pro Tam Wtlkerson,
