Harbison-Fischer Manufacturing Company has requested the closing of the
East-West Alley in Block 99, Texas and Pacific Railway Company's Addition,
to permit expansion of its plant across the alley. The request is signed
also by Texas and Pacific Railroad and by Waples-Platter Company, owners
of property at the east end of the block. Maps showing the proposed clos-
ing are attached.
The private utility companies and Public Works , Traffic Engineering, Water,
and Planning Departments have been contacted and do not object to abandon-
ing the alley provided easements are retained for existing utilities .
On February 12, 1964, the City Plan Commission reviewed the request and
found that more desirable industrial development is possible by closing
the alley. It is recommended that the City Council adopt an ordinance
closing the alley, provided easements are retained for existing utilities .
