WHEREAS, it has been determined that the City of Wichita
Falls must acquire a utility easement to relocate a 6" waterline
for the widening of FM 369; and,
WHEREAS, an appraisal has been completed on the easement and
such appraisal has been reviewed by the Property Administrator

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS, THAT:
SECTION 1. It is necessary that the City of Wichita
Falls acquire the hereinafter described property located in
Wichita Falls, Wichita County, Texas, for the purpose of
relocating a waterline as necessitated by the proposed widening
of FM 369.
SECTION 2. The legal description of the easement to be
acquired is as follows:
A 0. 01 acre tract out of a 0. 63 acre
unplatted tract within Blocks 40 and 42 of
the Rancho Vista Place Subdivision.
SECTION 3 . The amount of just compensation for the
utility easement to be acquired is $180.00 . This amount is also
the fair market value determined by Henderson Appraisal and
Consultants, who were employed by the City to appraise the tract.
SECTION 4. In the event the Property Administrator is
unable to purchase the parcel for the appraised value, the City
Manager is authorized to increase the offer when, in his
judgment, it appears to be in the best interest of the City to do
so to save the cost of condemnation. If both parties are unable
to agree upon a value for the property, the City Attorney is
hereby authorized to institute condemnation proceedings to obtain
such property in the name of the City of Wichita Falls for the
relocation of a waterline for the widening of FM 369.
