City Plan Commission Recommendation
In May, 1969, and January, 1971, these areas were recommended for annexation
by the City Plan Commission.
Municipal Services
The City of Fort Worth can provide all municipal services , including police
and fire protection, to all of the areas proposed for annexation. however,
in areas Q-69-20 (the GSIA enclave) and Q-69-21 (the enclave east of Lake-
side Village) it would be difficult to provide water and sewer facilities .
