CITY COUNCIL APPROVES THE ABANDONMENT OF A PORTION OF LIVE OAK ST.

  

The Brenham City Council approved an ordinance on its First Reading for the abandonment of a portion of Live Oak Street at their Thursday meeting.

Lot 2,4, and 6 of Beckers Subdivision of Lot 22 Davidson Addition or referred to as 903 E. Main St. and Main Street Baptist Church located J.W. Scott tract of Beckers Subdivision of Lot 22 Davidson Addition or 905 E. Main St. own property that abuts an unimproved right-of-way named Live Oak St. on the Beckers Subdivision of Lot 22 Davidson Addition plat filed on April 4, 1914.

903 E. Main St. will have frontage on E. Main, Sycamore St and N. Chappell Hill St even with the abandonment of Live Oak St. 903 E. Main St. will have access on E. Main St. after the abandonment of Live Oak St. Adequate access will still be available for the property owners.

Tommie Wellmann has submitted a request to abandon this unimproved right-of-way.

Main Street Baptist Church board has submitted a letter stating they have no opposition to the abandonment of Live Oak Street. Half of the right of way will go to each property owner. The recommendation is to approve this abandonment subject to a replat being filed to include the abandoned right-of-way remaining lots being platted into one lot.

The ordinance will take effect once a subdivision replat meeting this criteria is approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
