Staff updates council on annexation, sewer opportunities and land-use plan refresh
Summary
Staff briefed council on recent annexation approval for 133 acres, opportunities to expand sewer authority services regionally, and a plan to update the 10-year land-use plan and zoning ordinance; staff also proposed $30,000 in the budget for demolishing unsafe structures.
Staff told council that the city recently approved the annexation of 133 acres and is working with developers on infrastructure expansion in the annexed area. Staff said the city has sewer capacity that could support development to the north and east and that the city manager and staff are exploring using the city’s utilities and financing mechanisms to support growth.
Staff recommended beginning an update to the city’s comprehensive land-use plan (approximately 10 years old) and an overhaul of the zoning ordinance to align with any plan changes; staff also proposed $30,000 in the coming fiscal budget to begin demolishing structures the department identified as hazardous. No formal actions were taken tonight; staff will include these priorities in future budget materials and planning timelines.
