This corporation is the -ow er of Block 2 of the
Glover Anderson Addition. In 1946-3 at our request, an ordinance
was passed closing the alley which runs in an east - west direction
through the center of this block, however, it is our understanding
that a. utility easement was retained at that time by this ordinance.
We now wish to expand our warehouse and it would be
decidely to our advantage if this alley could be abandoned or some
arrangements made whereby we could erect a building which would be
partially upon this alley. We understand that it may be possible
to accomplish this.
There is only a sanitary sewer in this alley which
terminates at the end of our property and serves only our property.
We would be willing to bear the expense of closing off this sewer
extension ourselves. To the best of our knowledge, all of the
utilities are in the street and the only service in the alley is
this sewer and since we are the only abutting property owners,
we hope it will be possible to abandon this as it does not appear
that it could be extended across the T & NO Railroad tracks to
the west of us since it is at a very high level at the end of our
property.
Your favorable action in this regard will be greatly
appreciated. We will be glad to furnish any additional information
you may require at any time.
