The Engineer's letter is as follows: As requested by the City Staff, we have reviewed the preliminary plans for Tract 3R of the Westpark Central Addition and furnish you our comments as follows: 1 . We would suggest concrete valley gutters 8-foot in width to be required at all driveways that intersect with Westpark Way. 2. Sidewalks should be required along the West property line to be in compliance with Section 32, paragraph (10) , Apprendix B of the Euless Code. 3. Since this is a commercial development, we would recommend that all curb radii at driveways intersecting Westpark Way be at least fifteen (15' ) feet. 4. Fire hydrant installations should be of the latest Euless configuration which incorporates a mechanical joint anchoring coupling at each end of the fire hydrant lead. If we can provide further assistance to you in the processing of this project, please do not hesitate to call .

CONSIDER DEVELOPMENT PLAT APPROVAL: TRACT 3R2 WESTPARK ADDITION. (A PART OF 3R LOCATED DIRECTLY SOUTH OF PASSPORT INN.) Mr. Hughs stated that Tract 3R2 is in the Southwest corner of Tract 3R. He also stated that a medical complex will be constructed on the site and he hopes to start construction at the earliest possible time. Mr. Hughs made a request to build the sidewalks on Westpark at the time the buildings are constructed rather than at the time of platting. Mr. Bullard stated that the sidewalks are not required to be built at the time of platting; the reason sidewalks must be shown on the plat is in case the plat is sold, the new owner will be made to realize the sidewalks must be built before completion. Mr. Wells inquired as to the number of doctors expected in the complex. Mr. Hunsicker stated as many as twelve or as few as eight were expected. Mr. Waller asked if the offices were already leased. Mr. Hunsicker stated that some of the offices had been leased but not all of them. Mr. Johnson made a motion to approve Tract 3R2 for final plat approval as presented with exception of the City Engineer's recommendations. Mr. Maas seconded the motion and the vote is as follows: Ayes: Messrs. Waller, Wells, Maas, Pippin and Johnson. Nays: None Chairman Pippin declared the motion carried.
