RE:
JP No. 88009; Right-of-Way for
Denton Tap Road; Coppe11, Texas
Dear Taryon:
On July 25, 1988, Mr. Jay Chester of ABQ Development Corporation;
Mr. Wayne Ginn of Ginn, Inc., Consulting Engineers for the City
of Coppell; Mr. Russell Doyle, City Engineer; and myself met to
discuss apparent discrepancies in the Right-of-Way of Denton Tap
Road adjacent to property owned by ABQ. These discrepencies
resulted from conflicting documentation of existing Right-of-Way
and indicate that there may be a deficiency in Right-of-Way width
adjacent to the ABQ Property on the west side of Denton Tap Road
of 3 to 4 feet.
In an effort to resolve this matter and avoid delays in the
construction of roadway improvements in Denton Tap Road, which
are currently, underway, ABQ Development Corporation has offered
to dedicate the disputed area to the city as street Right-of-Way·
In consideration of this, ABQ has requested that the City of
Coppell agree to the following:
Building and bandscape setbacks adjacent to Denton Tap
Road will be measured from the easterly limits of the
area dedicated as Right-of-Way·
The area dedicated as Right-of-Way for Denton Tap Road
can be used as part of adjacent land currently owned by
ABQ for computing project densities of future
developments.
A letter is attached from Mr. Wayne Ginn, P.E., stating his
support for the offer by ABQ to plat the 3 to 4 feet of property
adjacent to Denton Tap Road as Right-of-Way and to recommend
acceptance of the two requests by ABQ, as listed above, to the
City Council and Planning and Zoning Commission. ABQ has
recently submitted a Preliminary Plat to the City which includes
the aforementioned dedication.

Re:
Parkway Boulevard
Coppell, Texas
Dear Mr. Chester:
The purpose of this letter is to respond to your letter of July
18, 1988 and to document a meeting held July 25 1988 in Coppell
Texas. ' ,
The conceptual plan of the proposed Parkway Boulevard as
presented by Jerry Parche is acceptable to the City of Coppell.
It is our understanding that you will plat the R.O.W. for Parkway
Boulevard, the street to serve the new high school, and the 3 or
4. feet of R.O.W. along Denton Tap. This will clear up
discrepancies between the Dallas County R.O.W. records and ABQ
records. This should all be on one plat with references to the
boundaries of the entire ABQ tract.
The proposed alignment of Parkway Boulevard is much more
desirable than having a tee-intersection as was shown on the park
submittal. ·
At the time of final plat submittal and review, we will recommend
to Planning and Zoning and the City Council that ABQ Development
be allowed to use the 3 or 4 feet dedicated for R.O.W. as the
point of reference for future setbacks and that the amount of
R.O.W. dedicated (est. approx. 5,000 sf) be used in the gross
acreage for compiling project densities.
Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.
