Subject: Proposed Revisions to Location of City Limits within the
Port of Corpus Christi Authority Inner Harbor Area
Dear Johnny:
As we have indicated in our discussions with members of City staff, the Port recognizes
and applauds the City's initiative to disannex/annex certain areas along the southern edge of
Nueces Bay that adjoin the north side of the Port's Inner Harbor area.
Please consider this letter as our petition to the City of Corpus Christi to revise the 1969
annexation city limits to those proposed on City Maps A and B that disannex approximately
225.1 acres of land and water and annex 6.6 acres of water. Due to past and anticipated
shoreline changes along Nueces Bay from the natural forces of winds and tides as well as the
continued maintenance of placement areas by the Port, we agree that the city limit will now be
recognized as the southern shoreline of Nueces Bay along the Port's Inner Harbor as it exists
now and may meander in the future due to natural forces. To assist you with this
disannexationlannexation initiative, the Port Commission formally approved this petition at their
meeting on August 11, 2009. I understand and support your efforts to secure City Council
approval on August 25, 2009. Please let me know if you require any additional information.
