R� On August 11, 1969 (M&C C-1540) the City Council authorized the awarding
of a contract on the project titled "Rehabilitation of Sanitary Sewer Mains
M-37 and M-70" (1968 CIP C-64).
On December 15, 1969 (M&C FP-681) the City Council authorized final payment
for the construction. This construction was a new line located in highway
right-of-way along the front of the properties adjoining the north side of
the East-West Freeway at Forest Park Boulevard which was to replace two
partly deteriorated mains located over and across the central portion of
the properties.
On May 17, 1971 (M&C L-3612) the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 6484
closing and vacating a portion of the easements occupied by the abandoned
sewer lines in Blocks 1 and 2 of Towers Addition.
On November 6, 1972 (M&C PZ-528) the City Council adopted Ordinance No.
6755 closing and vacating the easements occupied by the abandoned sewer
lines in Lot 1, Block 34-R, Edwards Heirs Addition.
Subsequent to Ordinances No. 6484 and No. 6755 easements occupied by the
abandoned sewer lines still encumber the following properties: (1) a por-
tion of Block 2, Towers Addition, Volume 388-62, Page 33, Plat Records,
Tarrant County, Texas; (2) Block 31-R, Edwards Heirs Addition, Volume
388-519 Page 39, Plat Records, Tarrant County, Texas; (3) Lot A, Block 34,
Edwards Heirs Addition, Volume 388-48, Page 385, Plat Records, Tarrant
County, Texas; (4) Lots B & C, Block 34, Edwards Heirs Addition, Volume
388-589 Page 464, Plat Records, Tarrant County, Texas; (5) Tract as - —y
recorded in Volume 4779, Page 883, Deed Records, Tarrant County, Texas;
(6) Tract as recorded in Volume 4178, Page 35, Deed Records, Tarrant County,
Texas.
These encumbrances are shown on the attached map, and the release of same
is requested to clear title to all of the affected properties. None of the
original sanitary sewer line installations are being used, and the Water
Department has no objection to the release of the easements.
Recommendations:
It is recommended that an ordinance be adopted closing and vacating the
subject easements to clear title to the properties.
