Mr. Charles Gore
Colleyville City Council
Dear Mr. Gore,
Tha~ you for your interest shown in helping us re-
solve the problem of drainage onto our property from
"The Hills" Development. Your visit was appreciated and
I'm sure you understand the dilemma we face regarding
drainage, especially during the construction period
when the entire area behind us is completely without
ground cover. Subsequent to your visit Mr. George
Gonzalez with Washington/Wallace Engineering Firm vis-
ited our property and observed the problem and damage.
I spoke then today with Mr. David Washington of
Washington/Wallace Engineering, who indicated the drain-
age plans do in fact call for a swale along the west
property line which should carry the water to the creek
on the northeast corner of the property. Mr. Washington
indicated that being aware of the problem, they would
attempt to take care of this as soon as it dries out
enough to allow equipment into the area. Although the
problem is not resolved at this time, perhaps the solu-
tion is underway.
Again thank you Mr. Gore, for your assistance and
help in addressing this problem. ,Hopefully this will
bring about an ultimate solution and we'll not need to
bother you or the City Council further.
