Commissioners discuss annexation outreach; staff to mail letters to large landowners
Summary
The commission received an update on a proposed annexation area (roughly 458 acres referenced), discussed outreach to property owners including the Holbrook family, and agreed to prepare and circulate a draft certified letter and address list for staff review.
Planning commissioners discussed progress on a proposed annexation covering several parcels and roughly 458 acres. A commissioner said they had drafted a letter to affected owners and recommended staff send certified mail to owners identified in the annexation area.
Commissioners agreed that targeted outreach would increase participation and transparency. They discussed specific property owners (references to Brigida Holbrook and Scott Holbrook), the need to verify mailing addresses and the option to meet in person with large landowners. Staff agreed to share the draft letter and address list with commissioners (including Wyatt and Candace) before mailings go out.
Commissioners expressed support for phased annexation and noted the need to manage mining, leasing and other land‑use issues in conversation with landowners. Next steps: staff to finalize addresses, send certified letters, and coordinate any meetings with affected owners prior to formal public hearings.
