Annexation policy plan introduced; council asks for input and map adjustments
Summary
Councilmember Colton Creech introduced a proposed Annexation Policy Plan and accompanying map; the council generally supported the plan and asked staff to post required notices and consider extending boundary lines to the river and the south-side church before the planning commission public hearing.
Councilmember Colton Creech introduced an Annexation Policy Plan and a proposed boundary map at the May 6 meeting, saying the Planning & Zoning Commission developed the plan to guide future annexations. Creech said he drew the proposed map using natural landmarks and existing houses and requested council input on language and boundary placements so the commission can proceed with adoption steps.
Mayor Matt Leak suggested extending the boundary lines to reach the river and the church on the town's south side; council members expressed agreement with that change where the document is not overly binding. Clerk Madi Smith asked whether she should post the required two-week notice that night because the next Planning & Zoning meeting was scheduled in two weeks; Creech said he would review rules for next steps and be available to work with staff.
The discussion did not include a formal adoption vote; the minutes record this as an informational step and a request for council feedback ahead of the Planning & Zoning public hearing.
