,,LM „,gib MMD Mayor and Council Communication
ON"isR&8. ATE REFERENCE SUBJECT: Notice Of Public Hearing On PAGE
1/6/69 NUMBER Contemplated Annexation in Southwest
PZ-313 Fort Worth (M. E. Asbury Survey) i or
At the request of the City Council the City Plan Commission is continually
reviewing the status of unincorporated areas adjacent to the City of Fort Worth
for the purpose of determining which of these unincorporated areas should be
annexed to the city. The City Plan Commission has studied and recommends annexa-
tion of an area in Southwest Fort Worth immediately west of the Wedgwood
Addition, an area experiencing much rapid change and growth.
The area currently recommended for annexation contains approximately 40 acres
and is bounded by the G.C. & S.F. railroad track on the north and west, Old
Granbury Road on the east and the south line of the M. E. Asbury Survey on the
south.
Recent Improvements in the Area
The City has just completed the paving of Old Granbury Road as a major thorough-
fare up to the property. The Essex Company, developars- of Wedgwood, are develop-
ing apartment sites on the east side of Old Granbury Road across from the subject
property. The Dan Danciger Jewish Community Center's building lies immediately
south of the Wedgwood development and east of the subject property proposed for
annexation. Further improvements to Old Granbury Road immediately adjacent to
the subject property are contemplated in the near future.
All utilities and City services are available for extension into this property
under the terms of the development policies any time they are requested by the
owners.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a res-olutivn setting January 20,
1969, at 9:30 a.m. as the time for public hearing on the contemplated annexation
and authorizing and directing the City Secretary to publish the notices required
by State Statute.
