AGENDA MEMO
(09 - 17 - 03 AGENDA)
DATE:
September 12 , 2003
TO:
Bob Livingston
City Manager
FROM:
Gene R. Smallwood, P.E.
Director of Public Works
SUBJECT:
Consider a request for the City to abandon certain excess street right of
way at 3500 Turtle Creek Blvd.
Background.
Staff received a request from the property owner at 3500 Turtle Creek Blvd
for the City to abandon excess right - of - way that might be available because of the
realignment of the intersection. The stree t is being moved to the east, creating a very large
parkway, and it is staff opinion that the City has no current or future use of the remaining
triangular remnant.
If the City Council is amenable to the request, staff would work with Hawkins - Wellwood
Home s to have the parcel surveyed, develop the "fair market value" and have the City
Attorney write the enabling ordinance.
Recommendation.
Staff recommends City Council approval of the request to abandon
excess street right - of - way adjacent to 3500 Caruth.
