ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:
The City of Lewisville currently owns 3.65 acres of property bounded by College Street on the north, Leonard Street on the west, DART property along Railroad Street on the east, and Walters Street right-of-way on the south. More specifically, the parcels are identified by the Denton Appraisal District as R12477, R12478, R12479, R12481, and R84522. The existing Walters Street right-of-way, a 16,000 square foot unpaved area, is located east of Leonard Street and at the southern boundary of parcel R84522, in which approximately 7,400 square feet is not needed for public use as a right-of-way. With efforts pursuant to Chapter 311.007 of the Texas Transportation Code, the City deems it advisable to abandon, vacate and close this portion of right-of-way. Therefore, this ordinance provides for the abandonment, vacation and closure of variable width portion of the northern side of Walters Street east of Leonard Street; providing for the terms and conditions of the abandonment, vacation and closure; and declaring an emergency.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the ordinance as set forth in the caption above.
