1--13-62-113 Further consideration was given the purchase of 0.5 acres of land for Booster Station Site
to be located at Quaker Avenue and Clovis Road, North of railroad, from J. Lee Quillen. At
the request of Mr. J. Lee Quillen, the City Commission considered his request as outlined
in the following letter from Mr. Quillen's attorney, D. D. Mahon. Mr. Mahon's letter follows:
Honorable Murrell R. Tripp, Mayor
Lennis Baker, Commissioner
Hurley Carpenter, Commissioner
S. S. Forrest, Commissioner
Lucian Thomas, Commissioner
City of Lubbock
Lubbock, Texas Re:
Gentlemen:
Offices of
Durward D. Mahon
Attorney -at -Law
Lubbock, Texas
June 25, 1954
Booster Station site of 1/2 acre
in S/2 of Section 13, Block A.
Lubbock County on J. Lee Qullen
property.
In my discussion with the Engineering Department concerning the above tract, I was led to
believe that the city would not accept an easement on said property for the above purposes
but must have fee simple title. Based upon that assumption I discussed with the Engineering
Department, the placing of a provision in the deed that in the event the city failed to use
this property for a pump station site that the tract would be reconveyed to Mr. Quillen upon
his returning the consideration to the city, which I -understood to be agreeable. I also
understood that the pump station was going to be used incconnection with the pipe line bring-
ing water from the Shallowater area.
In my letter to you of May 6,.I negelected to say anything about a provision that)the
site would be/Egnveyed to Mr. Quillen upon his return of the consideration in the event
the city f ailed to use same as a Booster Station. site or after using same f or that pur-
po�e abaonded its use for that purpose. I acted under the mistaken belief that such
provision could be taken care of between the Engineering Department and the City Attorney's
office and myself upor4rep*ration of the deed. When time came for preparing the deed,
I learned for the first time from the Engineering Department that the Booster Station
site was not to be used until, if, as, and when t he city lays its water line to the -
Muleshoe area. Under these circumstances, it would naturally be impractical to put a
provision in the deed, providing for reconveyance to Mr. Quillen in the event of failure
to use the tract as a Booster Station site because of the time element.
Mr. Quillen is very interested in conveying only an easement for the contstriletion and
operation of a Booster Station on said tract instead of conveying fee simple title so
that in the event it is not used for that purpose or after having been so used is abandon-
ed for that purpose that the property will come back to him instead of being subject to
being sold to a third party, who might use the property for a purpose detrimental to -the
value of Mr. Quillen's remaining land.
I see no reason why the city/0249 more than an msement. This, in my opinion, is all the
city would be entitled to get in condemnation proceeding. It seems that the city should
require no more than an easement for the Booster Station since an easement is all the city
desires for the water line and the only purpose of the Booster Station is in connection
with the water line. I have since discussed the above matter with the City Engineering
Department and the City Attorney's office and it seems that the only person that seriously
disagrees with my contentions is the person who led me to believe, in the first place,
that nothing but a fee simple deed would be acceptable. I do n ka4ed
ant to be misunderstood
as criticizing anyone in this connection because I was the one/ to go into the
matter sufficiently to determine in the first place that -it had not been first definitely
determined by the Engineering Department and City Attorneys office, that the City must
have a fee simple title.
I therefore request you gentlemen'to reconsider this matter and permit Mr. Quillen to convey
the city a right-of-way for a Booster Station instead of fee simple title to said 1/2
acre tract. This would permit the city to place the proper lead-offs on the property from
the water line when the water line is constructed and permit the city to build a Booster
Station when needed without the necessity of Mr. Quillen giving up fee simple title to
the tract, It -is possible that the Booster Station may never be constructed. If it is
constructed, I now understand that it will probably be several years in the future.
I will thank you to consider this matter at your next meeting and IArust that you will
give this proposal favorable consideration.
DDK-. jm
Very truly yours,
/s/ D. D. Mahon
D. D. Mahon
After consideration of the request as set out in the above letter the City Commission
agreed that fee simple title should be required for purchase of this land since the
surface of the land is to be used as a permanent location for a Water Booster Pumping
Station by the City of Lubbock. The City -Commission did agree, however, that in the event
the City disposed of this property withiiAen (10) years from date of purchase, Mr. Quillen
would be givenan option to purchase the land at the same price for which he sold it to
the City of Lubbock. The City Attorney being•hereby authorized to include such condition
in the transfer deed. Said deed to be -submitted to the City Commission for approval and
authorization.
