No roll-call names were recorded in the transcript for the final vote; the motion carried. Outcome: approved.

- Deannexation (Case no. 2501-DAN): Staff reported the site at 6820 South 10 Mile Road was not served by city utilities and that deannexation would not create an enclave; the council closed the public hearing and approved case number 2501-DAN. Outcome: approved.

Context and notes

- On case 2502AN, Planning and Zoning Director Doug Hansen told the council the applicant seeks annexation to obtain pressurized irrigation and that the proposed R-6 zone matches the future land use map; staff recommended approval subject to conditions in the staff report. The applicant, Noel Hudon, spoke in support and said he will maintain agricultural uses until development.

- On case 2501-DAN, Hansen said the property was annexed in 2006 and currently is not served by city water or wastewater; deannexation reverts the lot to county jurisdiction and the county had no objection once service status was clarified.

- Where a roll call or named votes were not recorded in the transcript, the minutes record the motion and the presiding officer's announcement that the motion carried.

No ordinances or rezoning texts beyond the case numbers were finalized in the meeting packet; staff indicated future conditions or improvements (for example, potential road improvements on Sunbeam and Ash tied to future development) would be addressed during project development or later proceedings.
