Pull Dallas County deed records to verify all four easements are released

Context: The abandonment was approved in a single Council action on February 26, 2025, but county recordation timing is independent and any gap creates a window of title risk for pending transactions on the affected corridor.

Recommended: Request the recorded instrument number from Dallas County Clerk to confirm all four easements — utility, water, and two sanitary sewer — are indexed against the correct parcels and that no gap exists between the Council adoption date and county filing.

Confirm abandoned easements are recorded with Dallas County before closing

Context: City Council adopted the abandonment ordinance on February 26, 2025; county recordation must follow for the encumbrances to be legally extinguished and binding on third parties.

Recommended: If you are acquiring or developing property along the affected corridor, verify the ordinance abandoning the utility, water, and two sanitary sewer easements has been filed in Dallas County deed records — required for clear title and lender approval before construction financing can close.
