ASSOCIATE January 22, 1982 TELEPHONE 713 471-188e Mr. Thoma L. Butera PPG IND TRIES, INC. One G eway Center pitt urgh, pennsylvania 15222 J" Re: Bay Area Boulevard right-of-way Dear Tom: The Harris County Commissioners Court, which is the governing body of Harris County, is ready to move forward with the construction of the extension of Bay Area Boulevard, from Fainnont Parkway to Spencer Highway in La Porte. This will require the re-routing of the former right-of-way which was granted to the Ci ty of La Porte by the predecessor in title of PPG Industries, Inc. I have enclosed with this letter, a plat by the Ci ty of La Porte Eng ineering Department, showing the new right-of-way, together wi th the one hundred fifty foot (150') drainage easementi colored on the map are the locations of the land exchange between PPG Industries, Inc. and Exxon Pipeline Company. I also enclose a xerox copy, of a certified copy of a Resolution which the La Porte City Council passed at its regular meeting on January 20, 1982, which I believe is self-explani tory as to the method of ac- complishing the exchange of Deeds. I also enclose a xerox copy of the proposed form of Special Warranty Deed, from the Ci ty of La Porte to PPG Industries, Inc., and then, from PPG Industries, Inc., to the Public. The Deed from PPG In- dustries, Inc.,. is to the public, as Grantee, at the request of the Harris County Engineers Office, as portions of the right-of-way will be used by Harris County for road purposesi further portions by a uni t of the Harris County government which is known as the Harris County Flood Control District, which has jurisdiction and authori ty over drainage matters i and the right-of-way will also be used, in part, by the City of La Porte Water and Sewer Department, and by public utilities, such as the light, gas, telephone, and cable tv franchisees, for utility easements at the edge of the road right-of- way.
