The Planning Manager recommends approving the abandonments
subject to the following condition:
The abandonments shall not become final until the new water
main has been installed, tested and accepted for city
maintenance.
Faust Engineering and Surveying, Inc. is requesting the abandonment
of two water line easements that are located in the Dillard=s parking
lot at Parkdale Mall. Dillard=s is going to expand its store and will be
constructing a two story addition over these easements. It is their
plan to relocate these lines within new dedicated easements.
