Council annexes UGA parcel into Shelton city limits by ordinance

Senior Planner Jason Doe updated the council on an annexation request previously considered at a public hearing (Aug. 19). The property, described as a vacant parcel within the City of Shelton’s urban growth area, was prezoned as neighborhood residential and remains unchanged since the hearing. Staff reported no contacts or public opposition since the earlier hearing.

The council read Ordinance No. 2030-0625 — an ordinance annexing certain property located within the City of Shelton urban growth area into the city corporate limits — and then moved, seconded and approved the ordinance and authorized the mayor to sign on the council’s behalf. The ordinance was adopted by voice vote; no roll-call tally was provided in the meeting record.

Staff recorded the annexation and will proceed with the administrative steps required to incorporate the parcel into the city, consistent with the city’s annexation process and the prezoning noted in the record.
