BACKGROUND PAPER FOR PROPOSED
ORDINANCE
COUNCIL MEETING DATE:
September 9, 2019
TO: President Dennis E. Flores and Members of City Council
CC: Nicholas A. Gradisar, Mayor
VIA: Brenda Armijo, City Clerk
FROM: Scott Hobson, Acting Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE ANNEXING UNINCORPORATED LAND COMMONLY
KNOW AS THE EVRAZ ANNEXATION NO. 3 AND DESCRIBED AS 1.09
ACRES OF LAND LOCATED WEST OF CANAL STREET AND
SOUTHEAST OF THE EVRAZ ANNEXATION
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to annex the property containing 1.09-acres into the City of
Pueblo commonly known as the Evraz Annexation, No. 3.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On August 12, 2019 City Council approved Resolution No. 14259 preliminarily
determining that the petition for annexation of the area commonly known as the Evraz
Annexation, No. 3 is valid under the provisions of Colorado Revised Statutes Section 31-
12-107(1).
BACKGROUND:
The Evraz Annexation, No. 3 is 1.09-acres that is located west of Canal Street and
southeast of the Evraz Annexation. The Evraz Annexation was a 49.97 acres addition to
the City of Pueblo approved on November 12, 2018 by Ordinance No. 9363. The
Petitioners are requesting to annex 1.09-acres into the City in addition to the previously
annexed area to facilitate the development of heavy industrial uses. The area currently
contains some pre-existing industrial facilities and undeveloped property. The access to
the property currently is via private roads that extend from the terminus of Indiana Avenue
east of the I-25 interchange.
Sanitary Sewer
Evraz, through its internal operations on the steel mill property, currently provides potable
water and sanitary sewer service to its existing facilities. The Annexation Agreement
(“Agreement”) previously approved with the 2018 Evraz Annexations will be amended to
include the 1.09-acres and acknowledges and agrees that Evraz may continue to provide
such utility services on their property. The Agreement stipulates that Evraz has the right,
but no obligation, to tap into the City's sanitary sewer system. If Evraz requests to tap into
City's sanitary sewer system, then the City will provide such service subject to and in
conformity with the City's ordinances, rules and regulations relating to its sanitary sewer
system and services, provided City will not be required to extend its sewer mains to the
Property. Petitioner shall comply with all applicable City requirements for the installation
of mains, lines, stations, and any other appurtenant sewer facilities in effect at the time of
such request for sewer service.
Stormwater
Evraz currently operates and maintains a stormwater retention and drainage facility on
their property. The Agreement stipulates that so long as (i) Evraz continues to operate
and maintain the stormwater facility on their property, (ii) Evraz holds a stormwater
discharge permit for the stormwater facility issued by the Colorado Department of Public
Health and Environment and complies with the requirements of such permit, and (iii)
the stormwater facility is not connected to or discharging stormwater into City-owned
or managed stormwater facilities, Evraz shall not be in violation of City's stormwater
utility ordinances (Chapter 12, Title XVI of the Pueblo Municipal Code) and as same
may, from time to time, be amended ("Stormwater Ordinance"). Evraz would have the
right, but no obligation, to tap into the City's stormwater system. If Evraz requests to tap
into City's stormwater system, then the City will provide such service subject to and in
conformity with the City's ordinances, rules and regulations relating to its stormwater
system and services, provided City will not be required to extend its stormwater mains to
the Evraz property. Evraz will be required to comply with all applicable City requirements
for the installation of mains, lines, stations, and any other appurtenant stormwater
facilities in effect at the time of such request for stormwater service.
Fire Protection
Evraz, through its internal operations at the property, currently provides fire protection,
hazardous material response, and emergency medical services. The Agreement
acknowledges and agrees that Evraz may continue to provide such services to the
property.
The area is currently zoned I-3, Heavy Industry in Pueblo County, and the annexation
agreement identifies that the property will be requested to be zoned into an I-3, Heavy
Industry zone district within the City. The I-3 Heavy Industry zone district is consistent
with the future development map contained in the Pueblo Regional Comprehensive
Development Plan.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The Petitioners acknowledge and agree that upon the annexation, the property shall
become subject to the Charter, ordinances, resolutions, rules, and regulations of the City,
but that the City shall have no obligation to furnish or extend municipal services, including
but not limited to sanitary sewer services, to the area proposed to be annexed.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The City Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the annexation at the September
11, 2019 Regular Meeting. A motion to approve the proposed annexation was made by
Commissioner Schilling, seconded by Commissioner San-Filippo Rosser. Motion passed
4-0 (Commissioners Avalos and Castellucci absent.)
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
Annexation Impact Reports have been filed with taxing entities as required by Colorado
Revised Statutes.
ALTERNATIVES:
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for consideration of proposed modifications.
City Council could vote to not approve the annexation Ordinance. The applicant could
resubmit an annexation petition in the future subject to the applicable provisions of the
Municipal Annexation Act of 1965 and C.R.S. §31-12-104, 105 and 107(1).
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
