RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GEORGETOWN, TEXAS CONDITONALLY AUTHORIZING THE RELEASE AND
ABANDONMENT OF A GEORGETOWN WATER LINE
EASEMENT.
WHEREAS, in 1992, Albert Johnson, a predecessor -in -title to Alaa Jafar
and Mohammed Hadi (collectively referred to herein as "Owner"), granted the City
of Georgetown a right of way and easement across a 0.69 tract of land in the A. Flores
Survey Abstract 235 in Williamson County, Texas, said 0.69 acre tract being more
particularly described in that certain warranty deed recorded in Volume 1420 Page
888 of the Official Public Records of Williamson County, Texas (the
"Property"), for the purpose of facilitating the extension of a water line across the
Property; said water line easement being dedicated in Volume 2168, Page 304 of the
Official Public Records of Williamson County, Texas (the "Easement to be Abandoned");
and,
WHEREAS, Owner wishes to develop the Property, but the Easement to be
Abandoned is impeding the development of the Property; and,
WHEREAS, the abandonment of the Easement to be Abandoned would facilitate the
development of the Property; and,
WHEREAS, prior to the City's approval of Owner's pending Site Development Plan
application, Owner will relocate the existing facilities within the Easement to be Abandoned
and dedicate to the City a replacement water line easement to meet the City's requirements
(the "Replacement Easement"), such Replacement Easement to be dedicated on the pending
plat identified as "2024-18-PFP"; and
WHEREAS, upon considering the request for release and abandonment of the
Easement to be Abandoned, and additional information pertaining to the request, the City
Council now finds that upon the conveyance of the Replacement Easement and the relocation
of the existing water facilities to the area of the Replacement Easement, a public need for the
Easement to be Abandoned will no longer exist, and therefore the Easement to be
Abandoned may be abandoned and released to Owner or a successor -in -interest to
Owner upon satisfaction of these conditions; and
WHEREAS, nothing herein shall operate to release any other easement.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
