Staff recommends approval.
The Town of Westlake and City of Keller have determined that it would be in each community's
respective interests to have the property currently owned by Scott and Kelly Bradley located
entirely within the municipal boundaries of the Town of Westlake. Section 43.031 of the Texas
Local Government Code allows adjacent municipalities to make mutually agreeable boundary
adjustments to the extent that the property is no greater than 1,000 feet in either direction. In this
regard, the City of Keller, on Tuesday, March 20, 2001, passed a Resolution approving the
Mutual Boundary Adjustment Agreement that is included herewith. In addition, Scott and Kelly
Bradley have agreed to dedicate a 25 -foot wide sanitary sewer easement to the Town of
Westlake for the mutual benefit of the Town of Westlake and the City of Keller. If this Mutual
Boundary Adjustment Agreement is adopted by the Board of Aldermen, the Town Manager will
then provide a letter to the City of Keller stating that it has the mutual use of the 25 -foot sanitary
sewer easement referenced above. The approval of this Resolution and Mutual Boundary
Adjustment Agreement will allow the Town access to acquire this easement at no cost to the
Town thus saving money in the water and sewer utility fund.
