of Dallas; and
WHEREAS, for the past fifty (50) years the existing uses of the Property sought
to be acquired have been ancillary to a Texas Utility ("TXU") electric generating plant; and
WHEREAS, in light of the recent sale 355.2 acres of TXU's property to a private
owner, and potential sale of additional TXU property to private developers, all of whom may
develop such property in a manner that would adversely impact the City in terms of traffic, noise,
air quality, and increased demand on public infrastructure and school facilities; and

proposed for high density residential and mixed uses; and
WHEREAS, the City will be burdened with provision of infrastructure and public
services should the Property be developed with residential development; and

vehicle trips onto Beltline Road, Interstate 635 and adjacent arterial roads and intersections,

compensation can not be reached then the City Attorney, Special Counsel or designee, is hereby
