Bergmann and would show this Honorable Board that he is now the owner of Lots One and Two,in Block Two and Lot Kline in Block Four of the Morningview Addition to the City of Beaumont. That the said above described property is a part of the territory taken within the city limits of the City of Beaumont and that hereto- fore, to wit, in the ,year 1924, Augusta Street from.south Irving west was closed by order of the Commissioner's Court and was placed on the tax roll as Lot No. Nine on Block Four of Morningview Addition, and that since .that date the tax units in. which the property was located has been collecting taxes on said property and the street has been closed since that time. Your petitioner purchased his home from John Gray and it seemingly has been overlooked at previous examinations of the title to this property of the failure of the Commissioner's Court records to.dis- close the order of the Commissioner's Court closing said Augusta Street from south Irving west. Prior to 1924, Augusta Street extended one-half block west of south Irving at which time a petition was presented to the Commissioner's Court requesting that the street be closed and upon acting favorably upon said request, property was -placed upon the tax rolls of both the South Park school district and the county. In examing the records of the court minutes of the Commissioner's Court for the county of Jefferson, it is found that said minutes failed to disclose any order -entered by said Commissioner's Court and that due to the fact that the said property is now within the city limits of the City of Beaumont, it is necessary that a city ordinance now be passed officially closing this street in order that the record title to this property may be cleared. Wherefore the premise considered, your petitioner respectfully recuests this Honorable Board that they recommend or approve such an ordinance.
