ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:

 

The original Kealy Addition contained right-of-way for Railroad Street, which was never constructed and has been fenced and used as private property for parking and storage for decades by the four adjacent properties; however, this section of the right-of-way was never formally abandoned by the City.  This ordinance cleans up this situation and provides for clear title for the impacted properties.  A similar ordinance was passed in 1995 for the portion of Railroad Street on the South side of Main Street to allow the CCA to have clear title to that land. 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

That the City Council approve the ordinance as set forth in the caption above.
