NUMBER Alley in Block 5, Mulkey's Subdivision 1
12/7/64 PZL120 of Block 1, Fields Welch Addition 1of
Kemble Brothers Furniture Company, owner of all lots in Block 5, Miulkey's
Subdivision, has requested the closing of the alley bisecting the block from
the east line of St. Louis Avenue to the west line of Galveston Avenue, as
shown on the attached plat. Closing the alley and replatting the block to
eliminate interior lot lines will permit redevelopment of the block as the
site of a new commercial building. A recommendation by the Zoning Commission
for re-zoning the north half of the block "G" Commercial (the south half is
now zoned "G") will be considered by the City Council on December 14, 1964,
during the regular zoning hearing.
Private utility companies and the Public Works, Traffic Engineering, Water,
and Planning Departments have reviewed the request and do not object to the
proposed closing, provided an 8 foot wide strip in the alley is retained
as an easement for an existing 10 inch sanitary sewer line. The property
owner has been notified of the existence of the sanitary sewer and has agreed
to install cast iron sewer in accordance with standard policies, if the pro-
posed building is constructed over the easement.
On November 12, 1964, the City Plan Commission reviewed the request and
recommended adoption of an ordinance abandoning the alley as requested, pro-
vided the easement is retained for the existing sanitary sewer line.
