The City of Beaumont "City" is requesting the section of Cottonwood between
Gulf Street and Jirou Street be abandoned. The City has no plans to develop
the unimproved Right -of -Way. The City has a water and sewer line within the
unimproved Right -of -Way so the City will need to retain a utility easement,
If you have any questions, please give me a call at (409) 880-3725.
