<br /> As this is
<br />this ~ime and ask that you refer it to
<br />
<br />br. FraukC. Hanrah~n,
<br />City ~anager,
<br />Portsmouth, Va.
<br />
<br />a matter for council action, I ~ bringing it to your attention at
<br /> the City Attorney for investigation and report."
<br />
<br /> "June 19, 1930
<br />
<br />Dear Sir :-
<br />
<br /> I herewith enclose a blue print showing a strip of land on Maryland Ave. between
<br /> ~ilitary Road and Princeton Road, Suffolk, the width of the land at Military ?~ad being 24.4
<br /> feet, running out to zero at Princeton Road. '
<br />
<br /> When this land was platted it was in Nansemond County, and the representative
<br /> of the Home Builders & Finance Corp., the owner of the land, platted the streets ,incorrectly.
<br />
<br /> It develops from a recent survey which I have had made that the Land 'Company
<br /> extended Maryland Ave. West of the Military Road on the same North property line as Maryland
<br /> Ave. East of th~ ~ilitary Road, snd in doing so they have encroached on the property of the
<br /> City of Portsmouth at the North West corner of Maryland Ave. and Military Road as noted above.
<br />
<br /> Since ~the land was platted it h~s been embraced withinrth~ corporate limits of
<br />bythetheCitYHome°f BuildersSuff°lk' &andFinancethe rightScorp, in the streets have been conveyed to the City of Suffolk
<br /> It seems to me expedient that this property line be corrected by a deed of con-
<br />veyance of the strip of land to the City of Suffolk, and as any charges for the lan~ will have
<br />to be peid by that City, and in view of our relations with Suffolk and its Officials, I re-
<br />commend that this str~p of land be conveyed without cha~ge, or at a nominal cha~ge sufficient
<br />t~ pay the necessary expense of drawing the deed and other incidental expense.
<br />
<br /> Yours italy,
<br />
<br /> On motion of Mr. Maupin,
<br />e~ud report. ~
