Subject: St. Joseph Village Development
Final Plat Submittal
Dear Mr. Sieb:
I received a final plat submittal from Mr. Mike Millican of Aguirre Corporation regarding the
proposed development of the St. Joseph Village in the City of Coppell. The plat now includes an
additional 10 feet of permanent easement for our 54-inch diameter water pipeline as requested on
the current City of Coppell water tank site.
We appreciate the additional easement as it will provide a much needed buffer between the
pipeline and the development and will help with fi~ture maintenance activities. However, there
are still several issues mentioned in a previous letter that need to be resolved:
Previous plans showed some of the building footprints on the northeast part of the property
inside our easement. Permanent structures are not allowed within our easement. I have not
seen the latest drawings and do not know if this has been addressed.
We have a butterfly valve manhole and an air relief valve manhole located in the proposed
Star Leaf Road right-of-way. These structures are not rated for traffic loading and can not be
placed in a road as presently designed. The manholes also can not be moved unless the
pipeline is moYed. The C'~' would consider having the pipeline mo,~ed outside of the ne:','
development road (i.e. straightened out), but not at our expense. This would require our
easement to be relocated.
· We will need to review and approve the design detail for the stormwater pipe crossing of
our pipeline.
Any air relief or blow off valve manholes adjacent to the proposed Star Leaf Road will
need to be raised by the developer to the proposed grade. We will review and approve the
design details.

Most of the issues listed above were included in a previous letter and have not been addressed at
this time by Mr. Millican. We do not want to impede development, but we need our pipeline
concerns addressed to reduce the risk of future problems. Please call me if you have any
questions or need further clarification of our concems.
Sincerely,
Todd W. Reck, P.E.
