Title
An ordinance providing for the partial abandonment of a utility easement located at Tisinger Elementary School, otherwise known as Ben F. Tisinger Elementary School Addition, Block A, Lot 1.
Body
A representative of the Mesquite Independent School District (MISD) has requested partial abandonment of a utility easement located at Tisinger Elementary School, otherwise known as Ben F. Tisinger Elementary School Addition, Block A, Lot 1. (See attached legal description and sketches.)
Research of the Dallas County land records indicates that the subject easement was dedicated by plat in 2002 for the construction of a fire hydrant and water line to service the school. MISD proposes to build an addition where the subject easements and water line are located. MISD will relocate the water main and dedicate a new easement by replat as part of the building addition project.
Nathan D. Maier Consulting Engineers, Inc., has obtained confirmation letters from the four franchise utility companies: ONCOR Electric Delivery, Atmos Energy, AT&T and Time Warner Cable, indicating they have no facilities in the subject easement and no objection to the abandonment.
Recommended/Desired Action
Staff recommends approval of the ordinance.
