KS/RESOLUTION RS50323C RESOLVED this the 23rd day of March, 1995. ATTEST: NE LAND, City Secretary 2. CHARLES CULT PPER, Mayor City of Round Rock, Texas � Ii li II C�1�L1 I r billy braxdale =t 512-255-1529 (7113/2/95 05:08 PM 62/3 March 2, 1995 Dear Sirs, I request that you allow city utilitiy services, i.e. water and sewer service, be extended to the property at 20 Timberline Drive (Lot No. 5, Hidden Acres Unit Two). This one acre lot is directly across from the Apache Oaks Subdivision in Round Rock, just Northeast of the SPJST Hall. The cities water line runs across the front edge of the property, and the sewer line runs in front of the property. It would be of no consequence to the city to allow this addition as the owner would accrue all cost related to the tie-in, and it would ensure city standards are in place for a home that will undoubtedly be within the Round Rock city limits. I feel confident that this would be a mutually beneficial decision. Your consideration is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Billy Braxdale 1205 Owl Court Round Rock, Texas 78681 244-3703 billy braxdale 512-255-1529 Ci13/2/95 05:09 PM SURVEY rf.AT Thi. is co certify [flat 1 ha.e, thin dile, mace a co:,:f[.4 Lina ;Ar.100 survey nn the wand of property icYOted of 20 I'J?ERIINE PPPrir..___--_i11 w[.••A.MSO4 CJU%IT klewr,Fxd n follnas!

Consider a resolution concerning extending utility service outside the City limits to Lot 5, Hidden Acres II. STAFF RESOURCE PERSON: Jim Nuse STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Billy Braxdale owns property at 20 Timberline Drive, Lot No. 5, Hidden Acres, Unit 2. He is requesting water and wastewater service for this lot. His lot is out of the City, the lot across the street is in the City. Enclosed is a letter from Mr. Braxdale requesting service, as well as a copy of section 10.103 of the City code which covers out of City service. The Planning Department is concerned about annexing one lot due to difficulty in providing Police and Fire service. Staff recommends extending utility service to Lot 5, Hidden Acres II, in accordance with Section 10.103.
