Glenn Heights council authorizes eminent domain proceedings for East Bear Creek expansion
Summary
After executive session, the Glenn Heights City Council voted 7–0 to adopt Resolution R‑04‑26 authorizing appropriation or eminent domain and delegating authority to the city attorney and city manager to initiate condemnation for right‑of‑way needed for the East Bear Creek Road expansion.
Returning from executive session, the council considered Resolution R‑04‑26, which determines the necessity of acquiring property for the East Bear Creek Road expansion and authorizes appropriation or eminent‑domain action where needed. The resolution delegates authority to the city attorney and city manager to initiate condemnation proceedings on behalf of the city where voluntary acquisition is not possible.
A council member moved and seconded the motion to approve Resolution R‑04‑26. The motion passed by roll‑call voice votes recorded as unanimous, 7–0. The resolution authorizes staff and the city attorney to begin legal steps for right‑of‑way acquisition for the Bear Creek Road expansion, consistent with the amended advance funding agreement previously approved.
