AGENDA MEMORANDUM
MEETING DATE: November 13, 2006
FROM: Laura McElhanon, AICP, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Ordinance approving an Annexation for Hale Limited Partnership Agreement-(Drive-Time)
Staff Recommendation:
The Planning staff recommends approval of the proposed annexation for Hale Limited Partnership Agreement (Drive-Time).
Analysis:
The property owner has submitted an application for annexation of approximately 3.18 acres of land generally located north of U.S. 441 and west of C.R. 473, as shown on the attached General Location Map. The present zoning for this property is County R-6 (Urban Residential). Currently, the property is a vacant building and undeveloped and the proposed use would be Auto Sales. The surrounding zoning designations are to the east and west C-3 (Highway Commercial), to the north County R-6 (Urban Residential), and to the south County R-1 (Rural Residential).
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. Staff determined that additional property could not be annexed at this time because adjacent property is developed residentially.
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.
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 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 remain in the County
Fiscal Impact:
As indicated on the attached fiscal impact analysis, there will be a small positive impact in the first year ($1,444). Once the proposed car dealership is constructed, the City will realize greater property taxes from this property.
