Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council Re: Street and Alley Closings in
City of Fort Worth Edwards Heirs Addition
Mrs. McKnight and Gentlemen:
On October 28, 1960, Ordinance No. 4385 was adopted closing portions of
streets and alleys in Edwards Heirs Addition and in the L. J. Hawkins
Subdivision, pursuant to the recommendation of M&C PW0512. The legal
description in Ordinance No. 4385 is lacking in clarity as to the exact
streets and alleys which are to be closed. It is recommended that a
revised ordinance be adopted for the closing of the streets and alleys
in Edwards Heirs Addition, L. J. Hawkins Addition and L. J. Hawkins
Sub' division.
