Summary

Council approved the first reading of Ordinance 24S05 (first-reading advanced by roll call) and received an annexation petition from Mayor Strickland to subdivide a parcel into six lots; the council recorded affirmative votes to proceed with required readings.

Councilors approved the first reading of Ordinance 24S05, which staff described as establishing a customer notice requirement after a specified protection period. Council member Harris moved for first-reading approval; the motion was seconded and passed by roll-call vote.

Separately, staff said Mayor Strickland had submitted an annexation petition to subdivide a parcel into six half-acre lots for single-family homes; staff noted the fire chief did not see coverage as an immediate issue but that the proposed Evans Drive location lies outside the department's 1.5-mile coverage radius for an engine company. Council was asked to approve scheduling the ordinance and annexation for first reading at upcoming meetings, and roll-call votes recorded affirmative responses to proceed with the required readings.

Next steps: Ordinance 24S05 will proceed to its next scheduled reading on the calendar; staff will continue processing the annexation petition and report any fire-coverage or service implications as needed.
