AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Meeting
Date: May
8, 2006
From: Laura
McElhanon, AICP
Community
Development Director
Subject: Annexation:
Ronald L. Hart, Jr. and Benjamin Garcia, Jr.
Staff Recommendation:
Approval of the proposed annexation.
Analysis:
In
response to an application for annexation of property located south of U.S.
Highway 441 at the northwest corner of Pringle and Purdum Avenues, the City has
evaluated the area relative to additional property that could be annexed into
the City to allow for a more regular city limit/city service boundary. Staff determined
that additional property could not be annexed at this time due to adjacent lots
containing existing residential development.
The
project site is approximately .92 acres.
(See the accompanying General Location Map). The present zoning for this property is County R-1 (Rural Residential). Currently, the existing land use is partially
undeveloped and a vacant single family residence. The proposed use of the site is
two single family residences with a reverse City frontage road on the north
boundary.
Also
on the agenda for this meeting are the rezoning and small scale comprehensive
plan amendment for this property, which are recommended for approval by the
Planning Commission.
City
water and wastewater utilities are available in the area. The developer is
responsible for all cost and construction to make the necessary extension and
hook-ups to City utilities in accordance with City requirements. Police and
fire services are presently provided in this area and impacts on the provision
of these services are estimated to be minimal.
Attached
is the Annexation Agreement for this property, which will be before the
Commission for consideration
Options:
1. Approve
the requested annexation. This would give the City jurisdiction over the use
and development of the subject site and provide for application of City
standards to this property.
2. Disapprove
the proposed annexation and allow the development to occur in the County.
Fiscal Impact:
Per approved City Commission policy, a fiscal impact analysis
is not required for this site because less than four residential units are
proposed.
