Brooks council approves annexation of 8‑acre parcel (Ordinance 2024‑001)
Summary
The Brooks Town Council unanimously approved Ordinance 2024‑001 to annex an 8‑acre, landlocked parcel (Parcel ID 0409064) for single‑family residential zoning. Staff said the parcel has no current access, is consistent with adjacent zoning, and no development plans were declared.
The Brooks Town Council voted unanimously Monday to approve Ordinance 2024‑001, annexing an 8‑acre, landlocked parcel identified as Parcel ID 0409064 for the purpose of a single‑family lot.
Mayor Daniel Langford opened a public hearing on the annexation at 6:58 p.m.; Town Manager M. Ungaro told the council the parcel currently has no point of access, is bounded by county agricultural/residential zoning to the north and west and town residential agriculture zoning to the east and south, and that the requested town zoning matches adjacent land. Ungaro also stated there are no current plans to build on the property and that staff did not identify impacts to traffic, fire safety, or adjacent property values.
The annexation motion was made by Council Member Brian Davis and seconded by Council Member Scott Israel. The council’s recorded action on Ordinance 2024‑001 was unanimous.
Why it matters: Annexation changes municipal jurisdiction and zoning authority over the parcel, which can affect future development review and permitting. According to the minutes, the council found the requested zoning consistent with surrounding properties and no immediate development was presented.
Next steps: The ordinance was approved on second reading at this meeting. The minutes do not identify any required follow‑up actions, conditions, or scheduled infrastructure work tied to the annexation.
