Re: Right-of-way Abandonment on Replat
of Lot 2A - Johns Industrial Subdivision
City of Corpus Christi, Texas

In accordance with my recent conversation with Mr. Jim Fritz,
with the City Gas Department, enclosed please find a drawing of the
replat on the captioned property.
On November 16, 1936 Clara Driscoll Sevier, et al executed a
Right-of-way agreement in favor of Humble Pipeline Company, said
agreement was recorded in Volume 226, Page 602, Deed Records of
Nueces County, Texas. Humble Pipeline Company gave the Right-of-way
to the City of Corpus Christi in about 1967 and according to Mr. Friti
the pipeline was physically removed from the property in 1970 and a
request was made by Mr. Fritz's office to the City Council to abandon
the Right-of-way; however, it appears that no action was taken by the
City Council to abandon said Right-of-way.
Delhi Gas Pipeline Corporation, as new owners of Lot 2A as shown
by the attached plat, is planning to build a new office facility
located on this property and hereby requests that the City of Corpus
Christi abandon said right-of-way.
If any additional information is required please feel free to
contact me at this office.
