Re: City of Keller-Keller Rural
Merger Application
Dear Mr. Gregory:
This letter will acknowledge our telephone conversation and the
willingness of the City of Keller to sell to Southlake that portion of
the Keller Rural system which lies within the corporate limits of the
City of Southlake for its proportionate part of the indebtedness on
the system. I am sure that the City of Keller and Keller Rural's
board would agree to making this a part of the order for merger;
therefore, if you can let us know exactly what part of the system you
wish to acquire, we will attempt to calculate the indebtedness on it.
I appreciate your assistance in this matter.
