Re: Release of General Easement
Dear Mr. Leventis,
You have requested that Wellborn Special Utility District release a blanket right
of way easement granted by I.H. Lloyd to Wellborn Water Supply Corporation dated
October 6, 1965, and recorded in Volume 254,Page 323,Deed Records of Brazos
County,Texas. One or more water lines were placed upon the property made the subject
of such easement. The easement itself contains language which indicates as follows.
"... that when a pipeline is installed, the easement granted shall be limited to a strip of
land twenty(20)feet in width with the center line thereof being the pipeline so installed"
Thus,in effect,the general easement is already defined and does not affect the remainder
of the property. If dispositive of this problem, Wellborn SUI)will provide a release or
disclaimer as to any right to utilize the old easement for any other or additional line or
lines.
Wellborn SUD stands ready to release the blanket or general easement and to
substitute in its place a specific field note described easement of 20 feet in width covering
the line(s)in place on your property for any and all such lines that must be continued in
use for its service to this and other properties. It will be necessary for you to work with
Wellborn SUD to identify all such lines and to engage an engineering firm to provide the
needed field note descriptions and for you to execute a specific easement in replacement
of such general or blanket easement.
Given the City of College Station's requirement that they must enjoy"first rights"
to any Public Utility Easement(PUE)which is dedicated on a plat of your new
subdivision,Wellborn SUD will not be able to completely depend upon such PUE for
any line easement route unless a very specific written grant is provided by the City. It
may,therefore,be necessary for you to include a PUP for Wellborn's line or lines along
side that of the plat which is prioritized to the City. This seems like an inexplicable
"catch 22"that should be resolved with the City's cooperation and we hope that it will

achieved for the mutual good of your development and all parties. Wellborn cannot find
itself,however,without an absolute right to have its line in place in the location that it
now enjoys or which is needed to continue its service as required. You may count on
cooperation from Wellborn SUD to achieve a reasonable result.
Let us know how you wish to proceed and we will work with you to expedite any
desired result to the fullest extent possible.
Sincerely,

Re.: University Preserve Subdivision
Street Maintenance Funds
ABET No. 1042001
Dear Natalie:
At the request of Mr. Deason, I am writing you this letter regarding the street maintenance funds
for the above referenced subdivision. After speaking with street superintendents from the City of
College Station and the City of Huntsville, it has been determined that annual costs of maintaining-,
streets ranges from $719 to$386 per lane-mile, respectively. A lane-mile is a 12'wide travel lane
for a distance of 5,280 feet. Since these numbers are based upon large quantities of streets
being maintained, a factor of 10 will be applied to the calculated annual maintenance costs to
adjust for the minimal quantity of lane-miles within this subdivision.
Therefore, the total lane-miles within the University Preserve Subdivision is approximately 0.36
lane-miles. The projected maintenance fund needed to maintain the streets within this subdivision
for a two year period (i.e. based on the College Station maintenance costs) is approximately
$5,176.00.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
' 9f7.pn,
