SUBJECT: | Adopt Ordinance Vacating Portions of Prescriptive Right-of-Way for Old Granbury Road and Columbus Trail Near the Intersection of Sycamore School Road and Summer Creek Drive for a Proposed Mixed-Use Development (COUNCIL DISTRICT 6) |
RECOMMENDATION: |
It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Adopt the attached ordinance vacating portions of prescriptive right-of-way for Old Granbury Road and Columbus Trail near the intersection of Sycamore School Road and Summer Creek Drive for a proposed mixed-use development; and 2. Waive any and all purchase fee value of the vacated land in accordance with City policy. |
DISCUSSION: |
Dunaway Associates, on behalf of Legacy Capital Company, has requested vacation of these portions of prescriptive right-of-way for Old Granbury Road and Columbus Trail to be replatted with the adjoining property for a proposed mixed-use development. The City Plan Commission recommended approval of this request at its meeting on May 23, 2012. An acceptable final plat (FP-15-125) has been received in accordance with the Subdivision Ordinance. The City of Fort Worth (City) originally obtained the above mentioned rights-of-way through prescription. The City does not own any fee interest in the rights-of-way or own any property adjacent to the rights-of-way and did not expend any City funds to purchase the right-of-way easements. In accordance with the City's policy regarding street and alley vacation transactions approved by the City Council on March 6, 2007, (M&C G-15624), staff recommends waiving the fair market value or any portion thereof of purchase price of these right-of-way easements for the streets. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 6. This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity. |
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: |
