its regular meeting on January 18 , 1983, as required by Article

of the date and place of such public hearing was published in the
Wichita Falls Record News once a week for three consecutive weeks,
the last publication being not less than one week or more than two
weeks before the date of the public hearing.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN OF THE
CITY OF WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS, THAT:
It is hereby determined that there is no feasible and prudent
alternative to the use or taking of such land as requested by the
School District, and such project includes all reasonable planning to
minimize harm to such land as a park resulting from such use or taking .
