STEINER PAGE 1 G-6440 SURVEY, #1972 (17.59 Acres) fot RECOMMENDATONS It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached Annexation Timetable in order to annex the subject property in compliance with the requirements of Article 970a of the Revised Civil Statutes of the State of Texas. HISTORY Before 1980, the subject site was within the Fort Worth City limits. District Court Judgment #153-50552-78, effective August 21, 1980, disannexed 409.6 acres, including this site. The disannexation was the result of a District Court judgment which declared that the City was not able to provide services to the subject area comparable to those extended to other similar areas of the City. The City's ability to serve this site has greatly improved since 1980. The completion of Eastchase Parkway and its interchange at I-30 has improved accessibility. DISCUSSION Mr. Jon Platlack, owner, has requested annexation of said land into the corporate limits of the City of Fort Worth. The property is within the exclusive extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) of the City of Fort Worth. No common boundary adjustments with other cities will be required for annexation. See the attached map (Exhibit "A") and the Staff Information Report. No requests for platting and/or zoning have been received for this site. However, when this site was within the Fort Worth City limits, it was zoned "A" Single Family and "AG" Agriculture. The Development Review Committee approved the subject annexation request on August 22, 1985. The City Plan Commission recommended approval of the proposed annexation on August 28, 1985.
