Fort Worth, Texas.

To the Board of Commissioners,
of the City of Fort Worth.

Now comes Sam Davidson, commissioner of Streets and Public
Grounds and reports to the Board of Commissioners that in his opin-
ion there is a public necessity for and that there should be
constructed cement curbings on each side of Hemphill Street from the
south boundary line of the crossing of Magnolia with Hemphill Street
to the point where the south boundary line of the city limits
crosses Hemphill Street save and except the street crossings on each
side of said Hemphill Street between said points named and that
said curbs should be constructed in the manner and of the material
named in the specifications for the construction of cement curb-
ing as set forth and recorded on pages 226-227-228, 229 of Book E
of the Ordinance of the City of Fort Worth as shown in Ordinance
16 passed by the Board of Commissioners of the City of Fort Worth
and that in his opinion the enhancement in value of each piece of
property abutting upon said Hemphill Street on the east side and on
the west side of said street by the construction of said curbings
will be equal to or more than the cost of the construction of
said improvements and that he therefore recommends that the Board
of Commissioners pass an order declaring that the property owners of
the respective properties abutting on said street are called upon
and calling upon them respectively to construct said curbing in front
of their respective properties as herein reported and recommended
and that the same be published for ten days as required by
Ordinance No. 29 of the City of Fort Worth; but in this connection
said Commissioner would further report that there has al-ready
been constructed curbs in front of the following properties which curbs
are sufficient worth, value and usefulness to dispense with the
necessity for further curbs in front of said properties, to-wit, as
shown on Exhibit B hereto attached.

Sam Davidson
Commissioner of Streets and Public Grounds.
