RESOLUTION NO.380049,4
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Georgetown, Texas, having been
advised and become aware that the Owners of three certain tracts of land, lo-
cated and bordering the eastern Right of Way (R.O.W.) and frontage road of Inter-
regional Highway Thirty -Five (I.H.-35) and also bordering the southern banks of
the North San Gabriel River, and the western and northern bank of the South San
Gabriel River, in and near the City of Georgetown, Williamson County, Texas, in-
tend and desire to construct a road in compliance with road standards set forth
and required by governmental bodies having jurisdiction 'thereof, extending and
connecting S.H. 29 on the south with an eastern Frontage Road of I.H.-35 across
and bridging the North San Gabriel River to F.M. 2238, also known as Williams
Drive and Andice Road, and that all cost of construction of said road and bridge
would be borne by said Owners and shared by the Texas Highway Department, and
WHEREAS, it is the opinion and conclusion of the City Council of the City
of Georgetown, Texas, that such road, bridge and frontage road extension would
serve and provide benefits to the general public by providing additional safe
public access to other public roads, streets and thoroughfares, and particularly
to and from the said F.M. 2238, (Williams Drive or Andice Road) and S.H. 29 to
and from the I.H.-35 Frontage Road and I.H.-35. Such access would significantly
benefit and enhance future traffic movement and circulation, future development
of public streets and roads in and around the City of Georgetown and offer safe
circulation and movement of vehicular traffic and particularly safer and less
congested routes, circulation and movement of area school buses between F.M. 2238
(Williams Drive or Andice Road) and S.H. 29, and between schools in the north and
northwestern quadrant of the City to those schools in the south and southeastern
quadrant of the City. Such road would further alleviate congestion of vehicular
traffic at the multiple intersections of F.M. 2238 (Williams Drive or Andice Road)
and I.H.-35 and U.S. 81, thus affording and providing greater safety to the gene-
ral public.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED,< the City Council of the City of Georgetown, Texas
does hereby recommend, support and endorse the construction of said road, exten-
sion of Frontage Road, and bridge, and respectfully recommends that the Texas High-
way Department approve such road, extension and bridge and pursue prompt and im-
mediate action to facilitate the construction thereof in full cooperation with the
present and future Owners of the aforesaid three tracts.
