AGENDA MEMORANDUM
MEETING
DATE:
FROM: Laura McElhanon, AICP, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:
Ordinance for Annexation for City
of
Staff Recommendation:
The Planning staff recommends approval of the proposed annexation.
Analysis:
The
City received an application for annexation of approximately 2.87 acres of land
generally located north of U.S. 441 and east of
Staff 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. State Statute 171.0413(6) provides for the City to initiate annexations with the consent of at least 50% of the property owners. Staff determined that additional property could be annexed at this time and included an additional .95 of an acre owned by Don Martin.
Also on the agenda for this meeting are the rezoning and the small scale comprehensive plan amendment of 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.
Options:
1. Approve the requested annexation. This will 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 remain in the County.
Fiscal Impact:
As indicated on the attached fiscal impact analysis, there will be a small negative impact in the first year ($-908), and beginning in year two, with the collection of property taxes, the City will begin realizing a positive impact.
