<br />
<br />Your Petitioners, Lanier Farm, Incorporated, and Cornelia G. Brown,
<br />represent that a map showing Surry Court leading off the North side of
<br />l/ulberry Road in the City of: 1lartinsville, Virginia, is of: record in lIap
<br />Book 1, page 47 of the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of this City.
<br />Said Surry Court is shawn on said map to be 30 feet in width at its
<br />entrance on Mulberry Road, extending in a Western direction 75 feet in
<br />width approximately 200 feet to a dead end.
<br />Lanier Farm, Incorporated owns all of the property bordering on said
<br />unopened street, except for the lot on the East side, which is owned by
<br />Cornelia G. Brown.
<br />Petitioners, with the advice of the City Engineering Department,
<br />desire to enlarge, change and re-dedicate SurIJt- Court so that said Surry
<br />Court will be 50 feet in width, in its entire length of approximately
<br />600 feet and ending in a circular court with a diameter of 100 feet, thus
<br />eliminating a right allSle turn, but requiring the revision of the unsold
<br />lots bordering on said Surry Court in confonnity with the proposed lines of
<br />said Surry Court. The new location proposes the entrance of Surry Court
<br />into Mulberry Road approximately 30 feet East of the original pr'oposal.

<br />is herewith submitted titled, "Forest Park, Revision of Lots 7, 8 and 9 of

<br />February 17th, 1953, by H. S. Pierce".
<br />THEREFORE your petitioners respectfully request, that since no one
<br />except the petj tioners are affected by the proposed Change, and since the
<br />City will benefit by the greatly increased area of street to be dedicated,
<br />that the City Governing Body will adopt a proper resolution authorizing
<br />and consenting to the proposed revised map and change in the location of
<br />said Surry Court.
