be adopted closing certain streets and easements in the platting. The portion
of the plat to be vacated, and the streets to be closed are shown on the attached

mended that the plat be vacated and that City Council adopt an ordinance
abandoning portions of QAlais, Bermuda and Aden Roads, including easements
not required for existing utilities or extensions of these utilities. City
