L. Trimble for the annexation of a 13.8 acre tract of land adjacent to the Hallmark Addition. The tract of land, formerly a part of Edgecliff Village, was disannexed by that city on August 17, 1965, in anticipa- tion that an equal portion of Fort Worth would be released to Edgecliff Village. A map showing the areas proposed for exchange between the municipalities is at- tached to this communication. Deletion of the tract by Edgecliff Village and the requested annexation by Fort Worth will establish a common city limit line to follow rear lot lines in a pro- posed additional subdivision platting of Hallmark Addition, and thereby avoid problems which could arise where two cities have jurisdiction and control over the same homeowner occupied lot. The area proposed for disannexation by Fort Worth borders an addition now under development in Edgecliff Village where the city limit line lies near the south curbline of an east-west residential street. In both the Hallmark and Edgecliff Village residential developments, the new city limits will follow rear lot lines rather than arbitrary survey lines which now form the municipal boundaries. Occupants of the completed subdivisions, if the exchange of land is approved, will live on streets where fronting property is in the same city thereby simplifying calls for emergency service. Adjustment of boundaries between the municipalities has been under discussion for a number of months. After consideration of many alternatives, the only ex- change of land which was agreeable to Edgecliff Village, the developers, and the Fort Worth City Plan Commission is the proposal herewith submitted. Ordinances have been prepared annexing the 13.8 acres disannexed by Edgecliff Village and disannexing 14 acres from the City of Fort Worth. The City Plan Commission has reviewed the proposed exchange and recommends adoption of the ordinances adjusting the boundaries as described. L City Council action on the City Plan Commission recommendation is requested. JLB:GA attach SUBMITTED BY: DISPOSITION BY COUNCIL: PROCES D BY ❑ APPROVED ❑ OTHER (DESCRIBE) 1d'17ted 0".
