PETITION
TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND ALDER&IEN OF THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN,TEXAS:
We, the undersigned Residents and Tax Payers of the City of
Georgetown, Texas, are seeking thru your Honorable body some
Relief from the flooding of our Property Caused by the poor
drainage of Austin Avenue at the Corner of 16th Street.
Austin Avenue over -flows every time there is a heavy dovm-
pour of rains. We think this flooding could be eliminated if
proper Drainage was constructed at Austin Ave. and 16th Street,
as there is a very small Flood -Trap and it is impossible for the
same to take care of the amount of Water which should go -through
this Drainage Trap.
Thanking you in advance for this relief soon as possible:
