Item 4DCity of Southlake, Texas
MEMORANDUM
October 2, 2007
To: Shana Yelverton, City Manager
From: Robert H. Price, P.E., Public Works Director
Subject: Ordinance No. 918, 1st Reading, Adopt an ordinance to dedicate a
waterline easement on City owned property at 981 East Continental
Boulevard for the purpose of constructing public improvements.
Action
Requested: Approve Ordinance No. 918, 1st Reading, Adopt an ordinance to dedicate a
waterline easement on City owned property at 981 East Continental Boulevard
for the purpose of constructing public improvements.
Background
Information: The Continental Boulevard 12" Water Line Project was approved by the City
Council on February 6, 2007 and the contractor is now ready to begin
construction. The water line will extend across 981 -1027 East Continental
Boulevard. To accomplish this, a new waterline easement must be provided on
the City owned property at 981 East Continental Boulevard. We have
previously obtained the waterline easement from the owner of the properties at
985 -1027 East Continental Boulevard.
The City property in question is one of four lots in the East Haven Addition
purchased with Park Dedication funds. This item was presented to the Parks and
Recreation Board on September 10, 2007. The Parks and Recreation Board
recommends granting the easement.
This is a somewhat unusual situation in that the City normally receives
easements from private property owners to accommodate public improvements.
In this case, the City will be obtaining /granting public easements from public
property for public purposes. Approving the Ordinance granting the easement
will continue the established water line route along East Continental Boulevard
and allow the project to commence.
Financial
Considerations: There are no costs to the City other than the normal filing fees to record the
easement documents.
Citizen Input/
Board Review: Parks and Recreation Board approval on September 10, 2007
Legal
Review: The ordinance has been reviewed by the City Attorney's office.
Alternatives: The City Council may approve or deny the ordinance.
