NUMBER Enclaves East 1
NUM"" 7/24/72 PZ-511 1 of
The City Plan Commission, at a 's ecial meeting July 6 1972> recommended
the annexation of three enclaves totaling approximately seven square miles
of land in eastern Fort Worth, as shown on the attached map.
These enclaves are completely surrounded by area within the city and con-
sist, in large part, of areas annexed for limited purposes (Navigation
Districts) in December 1963.
The three enclaves are located as shown on the attached map.
These areas are within the exclusive extraterritorial jurisdiction of Fort
Worth for annexation purposes. There are no ordinance conflicts or boundary
overlaps.
Fort Worth water and sewer are available under standard developers policies.
All other City services can be provided the area without undue problems.
These areas are adjacent to the Trinity River and include portions which are
subject to flooding. Flood Plain Zoning is available to help insure protec-
tion of life and property.
The Plan Commission finds that the annexation of these areas is consistent
with the Council's "POLICY FOR REVIEW OF ANNEXATION AND DEANNEXATION
REQUESTS."
A completed "CITY COUNCIL ANNEXATION TIME TABLE" is attached. If Council
begins the proceedings on July 24 the annexation can be final on
September 25.
Recommendation
It is recommended that a public hearing on the proposed annexation be set
for August 7 and the publication of the necessary notice of hearing be
authorized.
