RE:
Request for Replat
Valley Ranch Centre
SEC Beltline Road and MacArthurBoulevard
Coppell, Texas
Dear C~ry,
I appreciate your taking the time to call me this past week in order to
discuss the above-referenced z~plat. As you are aware, our sole purpose
for requesting the replat is that we are purchasing all of Lots B and D,
as indicated on the existing plat, but because we have two separate
lenders, the secured properties for the loan are being separated out as
follows:
First Lender
Second Lender
Lot B-R3
Lot B-Ri
Lot B-R2
Lot D
I have enclosed a copy of the propose plat for review in this discussion.
Additionally, as you have requested, I have enclosed an 8-1/2x14 copy of
Exhibit "E" out of our Reciprocal Easement AGreement with Tom Thumb. This
agreement runs with the entire land (exclusive of the Mobil site only) and
defines certain development parameters and ar~as. As you can see by the
drawing, the only additional develop~entwhich we are allowed on the site
is the L-shaped area surrounding the Mobil station, the future development
"wins" between Tom Thumb and Beltline Road, and a small ki6~k-location
fronting ~cArthur Boulevard. --
I have also enclosed a large site plan and have highlighted the future
development areas which are allowable pursuant to the agreement with Tom
Thumb. As a simple rule of thumb, it would be best to say that all the
grass pad areas at the site represent the<possible.future develop,~nt
sites, with the exception of the possible kiosk site, ~ich has been
discussed and may or may not be bui!.t alpng _Beitli~e
As I mentioned, we are ~questing the replat for financing purposes only
since almost any lender will require that their secured property under a
loan be separately platted rather than having just a metes and bounds
legal description of the property. Obviously, we would still be required
to meet all building, parking, and other code requirements enforced by the
City of Coppell, as well as The Valley Ranch Master Association, at the
time any developments were proposed.

a transcript of the hearing. Four hearings were held on this item, and Mr. Pettijohn expressed
several questions: 1) Why was it brought back the third time?, 2) Why did the District Court
