PILGRIM PARK ADDITION
1 . No profiles are shown for storm drain facilities and we are
unable to determine whether proper grade is available from
the various inlet lines , nor are we able to adequately
determine cover over the pipe. We feel that we must have
the plan profiles in order to properly review these drainage
proposals. In addition, a previous drainage plan submitted on
the property to the West indicated a 51-inch pipe, where this
plan indicates a 36-inch pipe . This discrepancy leads us to
believe there is some doubt as to the volume of runoff to be
expected, and we would suggest the two Engineers discuss this
matter to resolve the quantity of runoff which we might need
to prepare for.
2. On the water layout , there is a fire hydrant which is shown to
be on the far East side of the property, which appears to be
inaccessible to fire fighting equipment. Also, no valving is
shown on the 6-inch system within the property, and we would
recommend valves be placed in order that maintenance can be
provided on the hydrants and on the piping in the future.
Mr. Pulliam agreed to comply with all
engineering requests by the next Council meeting.
Mr. Johnson made a motion to approve
the Pilgrim Park Addition plat subject to approval by City Consulting
Engineer, Bill Ratliff.
Mr. Leggett seconded the motion and
the vote is as follows:
Ayes: Messrs. Johnson, Tyson, Perkins, Pippin and Leggett
Nays: None
Chairman Tyson declared the motion
carried.
II .
CONSIDER FINAL PLAT APPROVAL: WILSHIRE
SHOPPING CENTER - REQUEST OF MR. HERMAN
SMITH (PROPERTY LOCATED ON THE NORTHEAST
CORNER OF WILSHIRE DRIVE AND SH183)

Jack Bullard explained to the Planning
and Zoning Commission the reason for the platting of Wilshire Shopping
tow Center at this time.

Cr. Chairman Tyson read into the minutes
a letter from City Consulting Engineer, Bill Ratliff, dated September
18, 1973.
2-855, CITY OF EULESS,
WILSHIRE SHOPPING CENTER
As requested by the City Staff, we have reviewed the plans
for revision of the sewer system within Wilshire Shopping
Center, which have been necessitated by the ice skating
rink on that property. Though the grade on which this
sewer is to be laid is extremely flat, there seems to be
no alternative; and we would, therefore, recommend your
approval . However, we would point out that control of
grade on this sewer is extremely critical and that the
City's Inspector and Contractor should be aware of this
critical grade in the construction of the line.
After discussion and even though the
City Engineer's letter recommended approval of the plat, the Planning
and Zoning Board disagreed with the critical grade of the sewer.
Mr. Leggett made a motion to table
approval of the final plat until the Engineer could investigate the
possibilities of a more acceptable grade to the sewer change .
Mr. Perkins seconded the motion and
the vote is as follows:
Ayes: Messrs. Johnson, Tyson, Perkins, Pippin and Leggett
Nays: None
Chairman Tyson declared the motion
carried .
