EEO Is dj~YA'+J NUMBER A- 1
3~28~77 PZ--783 Kent Street (~"-77~26~It) ' ` i of
fILKEa PAIr,_ Lj~lft~
~,a.~,,,,-.~ Mr. B. ,~. Birdsong, with the consent of Texas Ch~•istian University and H.Fo and
.,~~~, Virginia Hopkins, owners of all abutting property, has requested that the City
vacate Kent Street in the 3500 Block a width of 50 feet and a length variable
to 290 feet.
The subject right-of-way, acquired by dedication, is neither paved nor open, but
contains sanitary sewer facilities A f~su~r-~~ar garage encroaches in the western
end of the subject right-of-way. '.
Approval of this request will dead end the right--of-way for Kent Street at the
east line of Lot D-2, and leaving a blesck length in excess of 600 feet. How-
ever, the existing roadway tu5:ris before this point and continues south into
Texas Christian University property as a private street. Thus, vacation of
the subject right-of-way will not close an existing street access, and a
turn-around or cul-de-sac at the dead end is apparently unnecessary.
The City Planning Commission reviewed this request and recommends approval sub-
ject to a replat showing necessary easements for a drainageway and sanitary
sewer crmssing the property. The Commission also waived the requirement for
a cul-de-sac to turn-around at the east end of the remaining Kent Street right-
of-way. A satisfactory re-plat has been submitted
Recommendation
It is recommended that an ordinance be adopted vacating the subject right-of-
way as requested.
