Messrs. Jim Brittian, surveyor, and Plichael Buckley, engineer, on behalf of
Walker, Brown & McCall, Inc., owners of abuttiny property, have requested that
the City vacate the above described streets and alleys, as shown on the attached
map.
The subject street and alley rights-of-way, acquired by dedication, are open on
the ground, but contain no utility facilities. The subject vacation request is
made in order to replat the vacated rights-of-way with adjacent property, to
expand the cemetery area, and provide more usable yard space.

Fort Worth.

objections to this request, subject to the vacated right-of-way being replatted
with adjacent property and any required utility easements are retained. A
satisfactory replat has been submitted.
