REED DRI ER
R. B. Billings and Elizabeth Stubbe, with the consent of the Texas Highway
VWLKEG BIL RDI Department, owners of all abutting property, have requested that the City
vacate the following:
1) Stratton Road, in the 100 block, a width of 50 feet and a length of
approximately 215.65 feet from Valera Street east to the west right-
of-way line of Old Hemphill Street;
2) Old Hemphill Street, in the 6200 and 6300 blocks a width of 120 feet
and a length of approximately 630 feet from the north line of
Stratton Road south to Highland Terrace North.
Hemphill Street was originally acquired by Tarrant County and is paved.
Stratton Road was acquired by plat dedication and is not improved. Hemphill
is proposed to be realigned with Valera Street to provide a better intersec-
tion with Highland Terrace North. The applicants have executed a construc-
tion easement which would insure that Old Hemphill Street remain open until
the realignment is completed and open to traffic.
City Departments and private utility companies have reviewed this request and
have no objections to approval as requested. Southwestern Bell Telephone Co. ,
Lone Star Gas Co. , and the City of Fort Worth Water Department have existing
facilities for which easements have been provided.
The City has received a satisfactory replat of which the Texas Highway Depart-
ment has approved. The City Plan Commission has reviewed this request and
recommends that an ordinance be adopted vacating the public rights-of-way as
requested.
Recommendation
It is recommended that an ordinance be adopted vacating subject rights-of-way
as recommended by the City Plan Commission, with Old Hemphill Street to re-
main open on the ground until realignment is completed.
