Board approves annexation petition to pursue school land purchase
Summary
The Colman‑Egan board approved sending an annexation petition to the city so the district can pursue annexation of land intended for school use; trustees noted annexation does not automatically change land use if property is sold later and further approvals remain required.
The board moved and approved a petition to the city to seek annexation of the land the district is considering for a school site, saying the step is "the next step" in the process but not a final determination on use. A board member noted that if the land were annexed and later sold, the new owner could still farm it provided zoning and use approvals were followed; annexation alone does not immediately change permitted uses.
The motion passed by voice vote after a second; the board and staff discussed that numerous subsequent approvals would be required before construction or site use begins, and that final engineering and permitting would depend on jurisdictional decisions.
