My question involves real estate located in the State of: Texas
There is a failed plat road from a failed subdivision from the 1940s that goes directly between ours and an adjacent property, the owner wants us to waive rights so the lots can be combined.
The failed plat road goes directly between our two houses, there will never be a road there. The real estate broker representing the owner came to us wanting our signature to waive rights to this because they want to build a convenience store in the lot behind us once the plat road is removed so the vacant property lots can be connected. We never felt good about this because our concerns over what can be built there and whether it will potentially raise or lower our property values in the future. We told them to go to the city and correct it, why do they even need our permission? Now we received a letter from a lawyer over a potential lawsuit because we were not cooperative. They reference some case over the same plat in the 70's as precedence but did not give any details. Our main concern is why are we even involved in this, shouldn't the city be responsible for zoning etc.? If the city corrected the plat then we would accept their decision but don't feel right giving our permission.
Thank you.
