S. Highway 71 North and the petition of J. Hellums and H. L. Storthz for rezoning of property on east side of Garland Avenue from R41A to R-3. On both petitions the dedication of street rights of way was suggested by the City Council before rezoning. Richard Greer of Greer Abstract Company was present to furnish information on Millsap Road (Cemetery Road). Mr. Greer said the road had existed for many years and had been widened at one time by giving 10 feet on both the north and the south side. Question now is what was the center line of this road when annexed to the City. Mr. Greer requested the true center of the road be determined by survey before 25 feet of right of way be dedicated; the right of way be acquired by negotiation; and the rezoning not hinge on the requirement of right-of-way dedication.
