That the second and final reading of the Meadow Glen Addition, the Sunland Addition, and the Fort Worth/Benbrook Boundary Adjustment annexations be postponed until July 15, 1986, and 2. That the City Council adopt the revised timetables (3) attached hereto. Discussion. On April 22, 1986, the City Council approved M&C G-6647 which revised the date for the second and final reading of the Meadow Glen Addition, the Sunland Addition, and the Fort Worth/Benbrook Boundary Adjustment annexations. The date was set for July 1, 1986, the first Council meeting after the proposed June 28, 1986, special election. However, the special election date has been changed to July 12, 1986. Since all materials for the single-member district certification process must be sent to the U.S. Justice Department sixty (60) days prior to the election, it is recommended that no new annexations become effective during that time. Therefore, the three (3) subject annexation proposals should have their second and final readings postponed until the first Council meeting after the July 12, 1986, election.
