* In the opinion of th;e Appraiser, the portion of sidewalk from Wichita
Street to East Berry Street will not benefit nor enhance the value
of the property. die enhancement on the balance of the property
includes the value of sidewalks.
The City Council continued the hearing on this project for another week to
allow time for the City staff to negotiate with representatives of the
Masonic home and School of Texas and to notify the other property owners of
the amended assessments to be recommended to the City Council for considera-
tion. the staff has notified the affected, property owners of the proposed
reductions of assessments based on the City Appraiser's recommendation.
The City staff met with the representative of the Masonic Home and School of
Texas in an effort to arrive at an assessment agreeable to both, the City and
the School.
It was agreed that the sidewalks adjacent to the Masonic Home and School
could be deleted with the exception of ninety feet on the extreme south end
of their property adjacent to a frame duelling. With deletion of the side-
walk, the remaining assessment for the paving amounts to $7,851.69, pl.us
$248.40 for the remaining ninety feet of sidewalk, or a total assessment of
$8,100.09.
According to the City's independent land appraiser, Mr. Ross E. Jones, the
pawning improvements of Wichita Street (less sidewalk) would enhance the
Masonic Home and School of Texas in an amount of $5,400.00.
On February 9, 1979, the City land Department contacted the Masonic home
and School for the purpose of acquiring 29,61 square feet of land required
for than widening and improvements of Wichita Street. An offer of $.20 per
square foot was made for a total of $5,924.20, The Masonic Home and School
of Texas has neither accepted nor rejected the offer at this time but in
the negotiations with Mr. Ardell Young, Attorney, the Masonic Home, he has
made the offer to accept an assessment for the paving in an amount equal
to the amount offered by the City for the required right-of-way.

Mrs. Minnie Teague at 3699 Wichita Streethas a nonconforming land use where
commercially zoned property is being used as a residence with minor commercial
age of a nursery. The assessment for this piece of property was computed
using a rate halfway between residential and comercial which figured to
be $1,520.00. The appraised enhancement was $1,250.00 and the residential
rate of $6.59 figures to be $1,122.35.

project and shopping centers in the area. A map is attached showing the
pedestrian type generators such as schools and, shopping areas.
Wichita Street and 'Vaughn Boulevard interchange with the Poly Freeway dust
north of this project and connect further to the north with Rosedale Avenue.
Also, Wichita Street connects at the south with Seminary Drive and the
Mansfield Highway, therefore, Wichita Street is a major connecting street
with local and through traffic. Sidewalks are needed for the safety of the
pedestrians.

the Masonic Home and School be amended to that of the appraised

by the appraiser or $1,122.35, the assessment based on the
residential rate*
