1. Retain existing utility easement for the water line,
2. Gates will require installation of Knox Gate System,
3. If approved, applicant shall obtain an appraisal and Title Commitment for the property to
be abandoned at their expense. Appraisal and Title Commitment must be submitted to the

This letter is being submitted, along with an Application For Right -Of -Way Abandonment, to provide
reasons for the abandonment m(eportion cfCottonwood Avenue between St, Helena Street and Concord
Road. The section of right-of-way requested is shown in an attached Exhibit and more particularly
described |nanattached Field Note Description.
The section of Cottonwood described is completely surrounded by one owner, the Beaumont
Independent School District (0SD).8|SDuses the property to part<b that are used for transporting
students. The public very rarely uses this section of road and the abandonment will not hinder any local
traffic patterns. 0SOwishes iuput agate at either end nfthe existing street with access for buses,
personnel, and First Raspondem//n|y.
threeCurrently, BISD has around the city that house buses and Transportation Personnel. The
'overall future plan is to redevelop the adjacent property and utilize the entire block, including the area
being requested, into one central location for all buses and personnel. Personnel will be located
ternporarily in modular offices on the adjacent property, with buses stored in the existing stadiurn parking
IOL
There are existing City Utilities in the Right -of -Way and the Utility Easement will remain intactwith no
structures or encroachments proposed,
If I can be of any further help, please let me know.
