§ 34-2.3. Adoption of master street plan.

(a)

The 1984 City of Irving Master Street Plan is hereby approved and adopted by the city council of the City of Irving, Texas, and a copy of said plan shall be on file in the office of the city secretary and is incorporated into this section as if it were actually printed verbatim in this section.

(b)

The 1984 master street plan is a comprehensive plan designed to lessen congestion in the streets, to secure safety from fire, panic and other dangers, to promote the health and general welfare of the general public, to provide adequate light and air, to prevent the overcrowding of land, to avoid undue concentration of population and to facilitate the adequate provision of transportation, and it is the declared intent and purpose of the city council of the City of Irving in enacting this section that this City of Irving Master Street Plan shall be used and adhered to in the improvement, development, extension and opening of new streets; provided, however, that the final alignment will be established at the time the improvement or opening of a particular street is undertaken or when an area of the City of Irving through which the street will traverse, is being platted. In this connection, conditions and situations may arise that will require modifications and changes that will better serve the public interest, and when such an occasion arises, this plan may be changed or amended to effect minor modifications or changes by resolution duly adopted by the city council; however, any major modification, alteration or change shall be accomplished as provided by law and evidenced by the enactment of an ordinance by the city council.
