FARM TO MARKET ROAD NO. 1140
Minute Order 026245, dated 01/27/1949
From FM 550 approximately 1.5 miles north of Heath, westward and southward to Heath, a distance of approximately 2.6 miles. (Rockwall County) New Designation.
Minute Order 105686: Cancelled. (Rockwall County) Mileage transferred to UR 1140. ["Transferred" mileage was described on the Highway Designation File page for UR 1140 as "From UR 740 [FM 740] southwestward and southward to UR 740 [FM 740], a distance of approx. 2.474 miles."]
Minute Order 115371 general description: Minute Order 115371 rescinds Minute Order 105686. The result of this rescission is the elimination of the Urban Road (UR) system. The Farm to Market (FM) and Ranch to Market (RM) roadways which were intended to be redesignated as Urban Roads under the provisions of Minute Order 105686 revert back to their FM/RM designations. Minute Order 115371 declares that the provisions of Minute Order 105686 were never implemented, and although the UR designations were in effect during the interim between these two Minute Orders, the affected roadways continued to be referred to by their FM or RM designations. Only the Highway Designation Files made reference to the UR designations during this interim period. Upon the passing of Minute Order 115371, the affected Highway Designation Files have been updated retroactively to reflect the FM/RM designations.
Minute Order 115371 as it affects FM 1140: Any mileage that was previously described as "transferred to UR 1140" reverts back to FM 1140.
This is retroactive to the date of passage of Minute Order 105686. The Highway Designation File page for UR 1140
has been removed.
