entirety.
Section 2. That subject to the following conditions, Cannon Street between Austin
Street and Ruth Street, depicted in Exhibit "A", attached hereto and incorporated herein
for all purposes, is hereby authorized to be abandoned and vacated for public use. The
abandonment is wholly contingent upon City approval of a zoning case to be filed by Faith

authorization shall be of no force or effect.

be held to be invalid, it shall not affect the remaining part of this ordinance.
Section 4. That the fact that the right of way is no longer needed by the public for
public usage and would create a hardship or burden upon the City of Grapevine to keep
open and maintain such right of way creates an urgency and an emergency for the
immediate preservation of the public health, safety, and general welfare which requires that
this ordinance shall take effect immediately from and after its passage and it is accordingly
so ordained.
