PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: On July 27, 2015 City Council approved a Resolution preliminarily determining that the petition for annexation of the area commonly known as MVD Annexation complies with Colorado Revised Statutes, referred the annexation petition to the Planning and Zoning Commission for review, and set the public hearing for the annexation on September 14, 2015. BACKGROUND: The MVD Annexation comprises 684 acres east of I-25 and north of Vestas Towers America. The area to be annexed is located within the boundaries of the City of Pueblo’s Master Annexation Plan. This Resolution determines that the annexation is found and determined to meet the applicable requirements of the Colorado Revised Statutes §31-12-104 and 105 establishing eligibility for annexation under the Municipal Annexation Act of 1965. The findings and determination include: 1. The area proposed for annexation has at least one-sixth of its perimeter boundary that is contiguous with the boundaries of the City of Pueblo. 2. A community of interest exists between the area to be annexed and the City of Pueblo in that the area is urban or will be urbanized in the near future, and that the area to be annexed is integrated with or is capable of being integrated with the City of Pueblo. 3. The annexation petition contains signatures of 100% of the owners of the area to be annexed into the City of Pueblo. 4. The boundaries of the area to be annexed do not divide any land held in identical ownership into separate parts or parcels without the consent of the landowners. 5. The area to be annexed does not include, without the consent of the landowners, land held in identical ownership comprising twenty (20) acres or more which, together with the buildings and improvements situated thereon has an assessed value in excess of $200,000 for ad valorem tax purposes for the year preceding the annexation. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: None with respect to this action. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their August 12, 2015 Regular Meeting, voted 6-0 to recommend approval with Commissioner Latka absent. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: Annexation Impact Reports have been delivered to all taxing entities as required by Colorado Revised Statutes. ALTERNATIVES: Deny the Resolution. RECOMMENDATION: The City Planning staff has reviewed the annexation for compliance with Section 31-12- 104 and 105 of the Colorado Revised Statutes and recommends that City Council adopt the findings and determinations set forth in this Resolution.
