The access for the property is currently off of USAV7, which is a 24 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,600 any of the service or maintenance impacts to that. 25 00:02:35,820 --> 00:02:39,740 Law enforcement would shift from city police to the sheriff. 26 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,660 Emergency response would shift from 27 00:02:41,660 --> 00:02:43,540 shared by a rescue to the shared area 28 00:02:43,540 --> 00:02:45,180 rural fire protection district. 29 00:02:46,180 --> 00:02:49,040 And then there'd be a slight change in property taxes 30 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:49,900 with the mills. 31 00:02:49,940 --> 00:02:52,000 So the standard county mill would still apply. 32 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:53,980 There would be no more city mill, 33 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,600 but there would be an additional, I think, 34 00:02:55,840 --> 00:03:00,160 three mills for the shared area rural fire protection district. 35 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,620 So all equals out to 23 mills to 18 mills. 36 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,480 So fairly negligible to the county in terms 37 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,460 of their fiscal impacts, if this were 2D annex. 38 00:03:11,820 --> 00:03:13,400 However, that report does emphasize 39 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,400 that the property lies within our urban service area, 40 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,360 and that community development principle 41 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,100 should also be considered with this D annexation. 42 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,800 The county's report also requested 43 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,980 that a record of survey with an accurate boundary description 44 00:03:28,980 --> 00:03:35,000 be provided should this be successful and that's something that the city would like to see as well. 45 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:41,080 You'll notice in that petition to DNX, the legal description provided is the same legal 46 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:47,180 description that's on the warranty deed which is rather incomplete, it just describes a point of 47 00:03:47,180 --> 00:03:53,100 beginning and then 100 feet to the north 393 feet to the south, etc. it doesn't provide any bearings 48 00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:56,540 and distances for being able to locate those lines. 49 00:03:58,500 --> 00:04:01,480 City staff comments about this DNxation. 50 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,380 This is kind of like a DNxation report from the city as well. 51 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,740 The property lies within our planning area boundary, which is that one mile radius around 52 00:04:10,740 --> 00:04:13,260 the city and our urban service area. 53 00:04:14,060 --> 00:04:20,120 If DNx to future subdivision of the property would still be considered under that JPA boundary 54 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:25,020 meaning the MOU with the county would apply and all city infrastructure standards would apply. 55 00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:30,780 So, if that property were DNIX and then the Petitioner chose to subdivide the property, 56 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,180 they would still have to put in roads, waters, sewer, how to city standards, 57 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,780 since it's available to the property and adjacent to the property. 58 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,000 The city is currently providing size water to the city, 59 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:48,180 size water, and city sanitary sewer service to the property if it were to be DNIX, 60 00:04:48,180 --> 00:04:55,420 rates would increase to outside city customer rates. If DNX, future development of the property 61 00:04:55,420 --> 00:04:59,860 will remain subject to the International Fire Code requirements regarding fire apparatus access 62 00:04:59,860 --> 00:05:06,080 roads and hydrant spacing. It is located in an area of logical municipal growth for several 63 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:11,600 adjacent or nearby properties have already been annexed. And again, city staff would request 64 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:16,940 that record of survey to be filed with the DNX Asian ordinance with an accurate description 65 00:05:16,940 --> 00:05:21,800 of the property. So just to kind of point out where this is in relation to other city properties, 66 00:05:21,940 --> 00:05:28,020 they have the GIS image up here. The yellow is city. So it is adjacent to city here to the south. 67 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:33,780 This is the woodland creek. Woodland Park is across the road. This is woodland creek estate. 68 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:41,380 Across U.S. 87 there is Whitney Benefits. And then if you kind of zoom out a little bit, 69 00:05:41,380 --> 00:05:47,520 you can see that the city really is growing kind of in this south direction with woodland 70 00:05:48,100 --> 00:05:54,040 arc across, woodland creek is daily across, like you get those two confused all the time. 71 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,780 But there's the two cities, subdivisions down there, an additional city land that's kind of 72 00:05:59,780 --> 00:06:02,060 naturally grown south there. 73 00:06:03,810 --> 00:06:08,470 Staffs that notification to 42 surrounding property owners, we also published a legal 74 00:06:08,470 --> 00:06:14,170 in the press regarding the planning commission meeting and the city council public hearing. 75 00:06:15,030 --> 00:06:18,790 We did receive a few phone calls from surrounding property owners and firing about the purpose 76 00:06:18,790 --> 00:06:23,610 of the DNA station, but no specific comments or concerns will were received. 77 00:06:24,410 --> 00:06:30,410 I will say that we erroneously sent out a handful of maillers that did not include an actual letter in 78 00:06:30,410 --> 00:06:35,630 them. So we're not really sure how that happened, but once we discovered that happened we recent letters 79 00:06:35,630 --> 00:06:39,550 to all 42 surrounding property owners. 80 00:06:40,510 --> 00:06:42,590 So thankful for the people that called and asked, 81 00:06:42,710 --> 00:06:45,710 what is this empty envelope about so that we realize 82 00:06:45,710 --> 00:06:47,190 that we made that mistake. 83 00:06:49,610 --> 00:06:51,670 Tonight, staff recommends that planning commission 84 00:06:51,670 --> 00:06:57,290 and next week, City Council denied this deannexation petition. 85 00:06:58,690 --> 00:07:02,750 However, if planning commission or council chooses to advance 86 00:07:02,750 --> 00:07:07,870 this item staff would request that there's a condition that the applicant provided an accurate 87 00:07:07,870 --> 00:07:10,210 record of survey for that parcel. 88 00:07:11,690 --> 00:07:12,910 Are there any questions? 89 00:07:15,230 --> 00:07:19,310 So in 2022, this was basically annexed into the city. 90 00:07:20,430 --> 00:07:26,550 I can't remember that time that that section, that annex section, was that involved in any 91 00:07:26,550 --> 00:07:29,230 and their bigger piece of property has been since September. 92 00:07:31,330 --> 00:07:34,390 Mayer, for you, no, it has not been resup divided since. 93 00:07:35,010 --> 00:07:39,330 But at the original time in 2022, is there another piece of was annexed with it? 94 00:07:40,450 --> 00:07:40,790 No. 95 00:07:41,030 --> 00:07:42,310 No, thank you. 96 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:49,700 And at the time, the annexed, was there a reason they wanted it annexed? 97 00:07:50,860 --> 00:07:54,340 Mayer, I made you for this two staff who might have been here. 98 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,480 When that went through, things, homes could speak a little bit better to that. 99 00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,980 I'm a mayor of the council member, Brad. 100 00:08:00,020 --> 00:08:03,760 Yeah, I was annexed in for some sort of a multi-family development 101 00:08:06,740 --> 00:08:07,080 lab. 102 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,520 Is it the plan that four years ago? 103 00:08:10,260 --> 00:08:15,960 Is this the property that we had all the trailers on it? 104 00:08:16,260 --> 00:08:16,760 That we had. 105 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,480 That we're just on and they were camping in that area. 106 00:08:19,700 --> 00:08:20,800 Mayor, that is correct. 107 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:21,540 Yes. 108 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:23,060 I recall it. 109 00:08:25,780 --> 00:08:26,580 Any other questions? 110 00:08:30,810 --> 00:08:32,090 Can't take you anywhere. 111 00:08:33,430 --> 00:08:47,710 So if I recall too, why not, did they approve the multifamily going in off of coffee that you would enter into this off of coffee? 112 00:08:48,350 --> 00:08:57,150 Through you may or the current access permit is residential and it's capped at an or more than 10 dwelling units. 113 00:08:57,150 --> 00:09:03,450 And they will not increase it to commercial due to the space requirement, so it cannot go up. 114 00:09:03,670 --> 00:09:07,590 Yeah, because they can't exit and enter from a trout lane. 115 00:09:07,930 --> 00:09:08,230 That's correct. 116 00:09:08,430 --> 00:09:09,930 That's private property. 117 00:09:11,210 --> 00:09:12,350 That Jason to that beauty. 118 00:09:15,730 --> 00:09:16,950 Just my last question. 119 00:09:17,110 --> 00:09:19,930 Did he give a reason why we're changing his ideas? 120 00:09:22,270 --> 00:09:25,230 Mr. Mayor, not particularly, no. 121 00:09:25,750 --> 00:09:27,890 This applicant has come in a couple of times to discuss 122 00:09:27,890 --> 00:09:32,770 some dividing the property and we've, you know, stated what would be required is the city subdivision. 123 00:09:34,670 --> 00:09:39,170 And, you know, there's been several options on the table in terms of the number of lots or the number of units, 124 00:09:40,050 --> 00:09:46,990 but it was not really clear as to why the applicant wanted to be part of the county rather than the city. 125 00:09:46,990 --> 00:10:01,370 You know, because I know, you know, conversations we've had in the past that this kind of goes against what we're really trying to achieve as far as some sort of cohesive area and where we don't have these weird islands out there. 126 00:10:02,490 --> 00:10:05,090 So I guess we'll just have to see what happens with it. 127 00:10:05,450 --> 00:10:06,810 So any other questions? 128 00:10:07,470 --> 00:10:08,030 Go ahead, Councillor. 129 00:10:08,670 --> 00:10:10,390 Sorry about the man, my pair. 130 00:10:11,910 --> 00:10:12,450 I need to set the cup. 131 00:10:12,470 --> 00:10:13,570 I need to set the cup. 132 00:10:13,910 --> 00:10:14,710 I need to set the cup. 133 00:10:14,710 --> 00:10:21,230 And I may have missed it.

It is owned B2 175 00:13:11,570 --> 00:13:15,690 business district, so the PUD just applies to that southern portion that's 176 00:13:15,690 --> 00:13:19,990 already been platted. The rest of this is owned B2, which allows for a wide variety 177 00:13:19,990 --> 00:13:25,370 of uses including residential, commercial, even up to light industrial uses. There's 178 00:13:25,370 --> 00:13:32,170 also no density restrictions with B2, so really just about anything could go into B2. 179 00:13:33,250 --> 00:13:39,210 This subdivision, 139, 130, 0.69 acres into two lots. 180 00:13:39,990 --> 00:13:44,430 The applicant is proposing a lot one, which is a five acre parcel in the northeast corner 181 00:13:44,430 --> 00:13:46,690 and track to A, which would be the remainder. 182 00:13:47,830 --> 00:13:52,350 The subdivision, this type of subdivision requires the extension of infrastructure to serve 183 00:13:52,350 --> 00:13:58,330 lots and therefore would constitute a major subdivision, however the applicant is not proposing to 184 00:13:58,330 --> 00:14:03,370 extend infrastructure and is requesting that the subdivision be considered as a minor subdivision 185 00:14:03,370 --> 00:14:08,170 and is proposing easements and a development agreement in lieu of those required improvements. 186 00:14:09,690 --> 00:14:16,090 So here is that subdivision plat. You can see a lot one, the five acres appear in the northeast corner. 187 00:14:16,090 --> 00:14:33,270 The existing subdivision is down here to the south, and this plot would establish a couple of different access and utilities easements that would provide a future connection and future utilities to this tract A and to lot one. 188 00:14:34,550 --> 00:14:39,450 As currently proposed, this subdivision does not meet the city subdivision regulations, the 189 00:14:39,450 --> 00:14:44,390 public infrastructure design standards, nor international fire code, regarding the extension 190 00:14:44,390 --> 00:14:48,910 of transportation and utility infrastructure to serve all lots within the subdivision. 191 00:14:49,990 --> 00:14:54,050 The creation of additional lots without adequate transportation and utility infrastructure 192 00:14:54,050 --> 00:14:59,890 raises significant concerns regarding long-term access, infrastructure maintenance, emergency response. 193 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:08,000 There's the order as proposed, in pairs, the orderly, efficient and coordinated development of future phases of this subdivision and adjacent properties. 194 00:15:09,540 --> 00:15:15,100 Staff sent notification to six surrounding property owners. A legal ad was published in the press. A sign was posted on the property. 195 00:15:15,780 --> 00:15:20,840 We don't receive one call from a resident inquiring about what the intended use of the five acre parcel will be. 196 00:15:21,380 --> 00:15:28,860 I do not know what the intended use of the five acre parcel will be, so at this time we kind of have to assume that it would be anything that would be allowed in B2. 197 00:15:30,820 --> 00:15:36,520 Staff discuss the ways in which this proposed subdivision does not meet the adopted city regulations with the applicant, 198 00:15:37,140 --> 00:15:46,860 but the applicant has requested that the subdivision be brought forward with the understanding that staff would not be making a positive recommendation on this. 199 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:49,740 Do you have any questions for me? 200 00:15:49,980 --> 00:15:52,280 Questions for Kelly regarding this topic? 201 00:15:54,700 --> 00:15:58,560 You're real quick because I mean we're dealing with this in some other subdivisions. 202 00:15:59,140 --> 00:16:04,520 What would be the secondary access or egress from that area in the future? 203 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:05,980 Is that, has that been determined? 204 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:17,460 So, right now, the current subdivision on the south here, their primary access comes off of 205 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:23,680 There are no road and their secondary emergency access will also come off of where no road 206 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,720 somewhere down in here. 207 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:33,640 For this tract A, as it's subdivided in the future, there is currently this access here 208 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,140 a little further up the way. 209 00:16:35,340 --> 00:16:40,000 It is currently the access for the gravel quarry over here in that county section. 210 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:46,060 So that is actually considered the access for this five acre parcel at the moment. 211 00:16:46,060 --> 00:16:52,180 But there would be technically two access points to this because there is this access down here. 212 00:16:52,980 --> 00:16:57,340 Trivers is quite a bit of terrain to get up to a lot one. 213 00:16:58,500 --> 00:17:00,840 I should say that those are simply access easements. 214 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,520 There's no improvements that are being made with this subdivision at this time. 215 00:17:04,860 --> 00:17:08,920 So there's no roads, no gravel, no pavement going down. 216 00:17:09,580 --> 00:17:10,860 Thank you. 217 00:17:10,860 --> 00:17:15,340 Councillor. I respect what you're saying and understand what you said. 218 00:17:17,670 --> 00:17:24,270 It's not uncommon for me to kind of show some confusion when it comes to subdivisions because I mentioned that before. 219 00:17:25,530 --> 00:17:34,430 I cannot believe how many subdivisions we've had over the last five years. Every council meeting we have seems like we're proving a subdivision. 220 00:17:35,850 --> 00:17:40,710 My biggest concern is the inventory we have for water and sewer capabilities. 221 00:17:42,430 --> 00:17:54,010 Now, I know I've been answered a few questions I've asked, but I still wonder if we were to actually fill every lot that we have in town, would we actually have enough water and sewer capacity? 222 00:17:55,010 --> 00:17:56,250 I would question that. 223 00:17:57,050 --> 00:18:03,970 I don't know where all of a sudden, in five years, we've expanded so greatly, and I know we've got some water acquisitions. 224 00:18:03,970 --> 00:18:09,110 I understand all that, but I just really want to be careful that when we 225 00:18:09,110 --> 00:18:13,890 especially as a politician that we are, we talk about a controlled growth in our community. 226 00:18:14,730 --> 00:18:20,650 But yet I've never seen a subdivision, maybe this one, but I've never seen a subdivision being denied 227 00:18:20,650 --> 00:18:24,310 because of not having adequate services. 228 00:18:24,930 --> 00:18:29,310 And I'm really wanting to make sure that maybe someday we could have a meeting and really 229 00:18:29,310 --> 00:18:35,870 down and look at how much we really have to offer all these lots that we've actually approved. 230 00:18:36,910 --> 00:18:42,570 But I appreciate your presentation, but just so you know that I will be watching for 231 00:18:42,570 --> 00:18:49,050 subdivisions really critically. Thank you. Well, part of the issue with this particular 232 00:18:49,050 --> 00:18:55,310 parcel and the request is that there is no utilities going to it. There's no plan for utilities 233 00:18:55,310 --> 00:19:17,370 that they have a line on a map that they've drawn, that they potential, but it sits way up in the corner pretty much disconnected from everything else around there, so it's essentially an island out in the middle of this property, and so that causes me great concern, and so I probably will not get into it. Well, I'm not probably. I will not be able to just open the windows. 234 00:19:20,590 --> 00:19:45,470 I think the fact that it doesn't meet our subdivision regulations, our design standards, nor our international fire code, regarding the extension of transportation and utility infrastructure to serve all of those lots is huge. 235 00:19:45,470 --> 00:20:00,370 I don't know how we can go forward with all of this not being met, so at this point in time, I'm not in favor of going forward with this. 236 00:20:00,370 --> 00:20:04,910 And here are the questions for we move on with Kelly. 237 00:20:05,830 --> 00:20:07,750 Okay, Kelly, it's still a Kelly show. 238 00:20:08,650 --> 00:20:15,170 Number three, discussion of PL-26-29, resolution 17-26, 239 00:20:15,950 --> 00:20:18,330 High Eagle Minor Subdivision, and again, 240 00:20:18,490 --> 00:20:20,190 with this is our city planner, Kelly Schrotter. 241 00:20:21,350 --> 00:20:23,150 Thank you, another subdivision. 242 00:20:25,970 --> 00:20:28,830 This subdivision is up on Yellowtail Drive. 243 00:20:29,910 --> 00:20:37,050 4101 and 4103, also unplotted land 15.35 acres in size. 244 00:20:37,650 --> 00:20:43,730 It is currently zone gateway district, part of our rent ranch master plan phase two. 245 00:20:44,090 --> 00:20:47,170 And within that master plan it is in the mixed use area. 246 00:20:47,450 --> 00:20:54,090 So there's a variety of uses that would be allowed on these lots, primarily commercial or residential in nature. 247 00:20:55,090 --> 00:20:59,150 The proposal is to divide these 15 acres into three blocks, 248 00:20:59,470 --> 00:21:01,470 a lot one being 6.9 acres in size, 249 00:21:01,510 --> 00:21:04,890 a lot two being 3.8, and a lot three being 4.6. 250 00:21:05,850 --> 00:21:09,190 All lots currently have access to dedicated public streets 251 00:21:09,190 --> 00:21:12,210 and utility infrastructure, so there would be no extensions 252 00:21:12,210 --> 00:21:14,250 required with this subdivision, 253 00:21:14,930 --> 00:21:17,110 and thus no new improvements that are being proposed. 254 00:21:18,590 --> 00:21:19,570 Here is that plat. 255 00:21:19,570 --> 00:21:36,790 So I would take the that unplotted blend, create those three lots here with access off of yellow tail drive for this lot to the west and then these two would be accessed most likely off of high tech dry. 256 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,980 Our future land use map is a little split in this area. 257 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,720 It is appropriate according to this map for commercial or agricultural use. 258 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,300 the agricultural is the green, the red is commercial. 259 00:21:50,140 --> 00:21:53,020 This map was created in 2017, at which time 260 00:21:53,020 --> 00:21:55,840 the college Agra Park had just gone into the west there, 261 00:21:55,900 --> 00:21:58,980 so I think the vision for kind of this western portion 262 00:21:58,980 --> 00:22:02,180 of the ranch ranch area was to be a little bit more 263 00:22:02,180 --> 00:22:03,260 agricultural and use. 264 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,280 But as commercial development has made its way up yellow 265 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,540 tail drive, we're starting to see some of that 266 00:22:08,540 --> 00:22:11,300 come down through yellow tail drive. 267 00:22:11,380 --> 00:22:14,640 So I do believe this is in line with that future land use map, 268 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:23,880 because it will kind of allow additional commercial use in that area, adjacent to our business park. 269 00:22:24,580 --> 00:22:26,520 Staff sent notification to seven surrounding properties. 270 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:40,080 Receive any questions or comments to be on this proposed subdivision. Staff will be recommending approval of this subdivision to planning commission and the governing body. 271 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:41,960 Are there any questions? 272 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,260 Questions regarding this one? 273 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:45,980 Just have one. 274 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:52,400 Is it a tale drive? Is that the one we've had a lot of concerns with?

So for tonight we're just asking Council to consider. Obviously we're not approving anything this evening. 313 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:21,200 The appointment of Zach at next week's meeting. Are there any questions? 314 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:33,780 Questions regarding this? No, Zach. Step forward and he said he would be willing to do that.

I would like to know in our relationship to how many 365 00:29:13,330 --> 00:29:20,130 lots we have that are right now vacant how much water we have in reserve if we were to 366 00:29:20,130 --> 00:29:25,270 have to fill all these lots in. I know there's always this projection of maybe some other 367 00:29:25,270 --> 00:29:31,550 water coming. I would like to know right now as of this year if we would have enough water 368 00:29:31,550 --> 00:29:37,170 how much water we have left, how much water we would need because I know we have a lot of lots 369 00:29:37,170 --> 00:29:42,190 that are setting just waiting to be developed and I just want to make sure that we coat 370 00:29:42,190 --> 00:29:47,770 build our community.
