Rev. Joseph A. Koebel, Pastor ~ Page 2 <br />St. Mary's Church ~ 10-26-77 <br />• <br />(4) It is our understanding that Mr. H. Carlos Smith, Engineer- <br />. Surveyor, has agreed to donate his engineering and survey- <br />ing services at no cost to the City, to improve this . <br />portion of Bayshore Drive. <br />(5) The improvement of Bayshore Drive must be completed and <br />opened to traffic, before the City Commission could <br />• formally pass its ordinance, officially closing the <br />portion of Katherine. Avenue situated within the Church's <br />property. <br />(6) Inasmuch as the City feels that the relative value of the <br />portion of Katherine Avenue, which you seek to have <br />closed, and the new portion of Bayshore Drive, which you <br />would dedicate to the City of La Porte, are approximately <br />the same, there would be a waiver by the City of La Porte <br />of its usual requirement that an appraisal be made of a <br />portion. of a street sought to be closed, and that the <br />owner pay 75$ of the appraised value to the City. <br />If this meets with your approval, please secure formal approval <br />• by the Good Shepherd Council, the governing body of St. Mary's <br />Church, and advise us of its approval. If the City of La Porte <br />can be of any further assistance, or can provide any further <br />information, please don't hesitate to call. -- <br />We will look forward to working with St. Mary's Church on this <br />- - - --- <br />project. ~ _ . - _ __- <br />Yours very truly, <br />CITY OtF LA PORTE <br />' , <br />B <br />Y <br />.
