STAFF REVIEW OF THE PUBLIC COMMENT AND TESTIMONY REGARDING THE
ABANDONMENT OF A CERTAIN UTILITY EASEMENT ON PROPERTY GENERALLY
LOCATED WEST OF HILLHOUSE ROAD. Mr. Darrin Coker, City Attorney.
Darrin Coker City Attorney reported Renee West Development Company previously went
through the zoning process for the development of a 20 lot subdivision on the property
located at 2014 Hillhouse Road (west of Dawson High School). In order to construct a
new sanitary line to serve the development, the developer has petitioned the City to
abandon an existing 16 foot easement that the City inherited after Municipal Utility
District 5 was annexed. The City does not object to abandonment of the easement

because the developer agrees to relocate the new line and provide upsizing to the new
line by a separate development agreement with the City (to be considered at the same
Council Meeting). The public hearing is being conducted for the purpose of allowing
public comment to the proposed abandonment. The ordinance considering the
abandonment will have a contingency that the ordinance will not take effect until utilities
are relocated and approved by the City.
CITIZEN COMMENTS: None.
COUNCIL/STAFF DISCUSSION: None.
ADJOURNMENT:
Meeting was adjourned at 7:40 p.m.
Minutes approved as submitted and/or corrected this the 8t" day of July, A.D., 2013.
