DATE: Tuesday, March 20, 2007
LOG NAME: 06VA-03-016 REFERENCE NO.: **PZ-2729
SUBJECT:
Adopt an Ordinance Vacating a 0.11 Acre Portion of NW 28th Street Right-of-Way, Lying between
an Unnamed Alley to the West and Columbus Avenue; and Located Adjacent to the New NW 28th
Street in the City of Fort Worth
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt an ordinance vacating a portion of NW 28th Street right-of-way from a point at the alley to the west
and to a point at the east of Columbus Avenue, being a variable width (21ft by 49ft) feet wide by
approximately 140 feet long consisting of 0.11 acre of land, in the Rosen Heights Addition located in the
City of Fort Worth, as filed in Volume 106, Page 56, Plat Records, Tarrant County, Texas; and
2. Waive any and all purchase fee value of the vacated land.
DISCUSSION:
Donnie Tucker of Texas Surveyors, on behalf of Maria and Ernesto Rodriguez, requests to vacate the
above referenced surplus right-of-way and to replat and incorporate it within the adjoining property to
expand a residential yard. The City Plan Commission recommended approval of this request at its meeting
on April 23, 2003. An acceptable replat (FS-03-218) has been received. Any existing utilities will be
relocated at the applicant's expense, or retained within a designated easement, along with an appropriate
plat note that no permanent structures may be constructed or placed thereon.
The Department of Engineering, Real Property Division states that the fee value of the subject property is
$1,509.50. The City of Fort Worth originally obtained the above mentioned right-of-way through platting
process. The City does not own land under or adjacent to the above referenced right-of-way. Since no City
funds have been expended to purchase property or easement rights, collection of the fee value or any
portion thereof is recommended by staff to be waived.
This request is in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
