Home My WebLink AboutItem 14 - Slope Easement Abandonment Dallas RoadMEMOTO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER %�— MEETING DATE: JUNE 18, 2019 SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF A SLOPE EASEMENT ABANDONMENT ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF DALLAS ROAD FROM MAIN STREET TO JEAN STREET RECOMMENDATION: City Council consider adopting an ordinance abandoning a variable width slope easement adjacent to the south side of Dallas Road from Main Street to Jean Street, and take any necessary action. FUNDING SOURCE: BACKGROUND: Property owners along the south side of Dallas Road from Main Street to Jean Street have made requests that the City abandon and vacate slope easements to help facilitate the developable building areas for those properties. The current request is being made by Mr. Rogers. The slope easement was acquired prior to the construction of Dallas Road by the Texas Department of Transportation in the early 1990s. The easement provided an additional five feet of land for any grading work south of the Dallas Road right-of-way line. Abandonment of the easement poses no negative impact to City facilities. Staff has reviewed the request and has no objections. Staff recommends approval.
