ANNEXATION Emma McCartney Title Problem: South Meridian Road An area at South Meridian Road and 7th Street West belonging to Emma McCartney has a title problem. The original plat for Ashley Townshipowas filed in 1891, 6 stone monu- ments were erected. A resurvey was done the next year and one monument apparently was displaced and consequently the description altered. Some 20 years ago, Lot 8 was given to the County for taxes. Subsequently the area, in error, went to the City. Taxes and sewer charges have been paid and there is a request to the City to issue a quitclaim deed to allow Mrs. KtCartneg.-eglear title. In October 1969, the County deeded the road right-of-way to the City. City Surveyor Zavodny has recommended the deed be granted and properly filed.
