4 Mile Special Service District approves correction to Harrison Fields annexation legal description

The 4 Mile Special Service District Board of Trustees approved a correction to the Harrison Fields annexation legal description and authorized staff to file an addendum with the LG's office after county surveyors found a clerical error in the plat.

Board context: Jack Small, identified in the meeting as the city owner, told trustees that the county surveyor reviewing the annexation plat “noticed that the legal description was rough. They inversed a number on 1 of the, 1 of the description lines. And so they had them fix it,” and recommended the correction be submitted so the filing would not be delayed. Chair of the board asked for clarification, saying, “Is this the attorney general or LG?” and Small corrected that the correct office was the LG.

Why it matters: Small said the county surveyor warned that failing to fix the description could hold up action at the LG's office. Trustees were asked to confirm they were willing to allow an amendment to the submitted materials to correct the typographical error.

What the board did: A board member moved to allow the change and for staff to include an addendum with the LG filing; the chair seconded the motion. The chair called the vote and said, “All the favor. Aye.” The board carried the motion.

Next steps: Trustees authorized staff to proceed with the corrected legal description and the addendum to the LG filing. No timetable or further conditions were specified at the meeting.
