SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION TABLING FINAL ACTION ON THE PETITION FOR
THE ANNEXATION OF THE AREA COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE
JACKSON RANCH ANNEXATION 1, GENERALLY LOCATED
SOUTHEAST OF STATE HIGHWAY 78 AND SOUTHWEST OF EL
CAMINO SUBDIVISION, 17TH FILING FOR AN ADDITIONAL PERIOD
OF NOT MORE THAN 180 DAYS
SUMMARY:
A Resolution tabling final action on the petition for the annexation area commonly
known as Jackson Ranch Annexation 1 for an additional period of not more than 180
days.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On June 13, 2022, City Council approved Resolutions 14908, 14909 and 14910 which
preliminarily determined that the petition for the annexation of the areas commonly
known as the Jackson Ranch Annexations 1, 2, and 3 were valid under the provisions
of the Colorado Revised Statutes Sections 31-12-104(1)(a) and 31-12-107(1).
BACKGROUND:
On May 12, 2022, the petitioner, RJPC, LLC (“Jackson Ranch”), submitted an
annexation petition for the Jackson Ranch Annexation 1 totaling 81.68-acres. Two
concurrent annexation petitions were submitted by RJPC Ranch, LLC for properties
located south of Highway 78 and the El Camino residential development. Jackson
Ranch Annexations 1-3 will be reviewed simultaneously to provide 1/6 contiguity with
the city limits, which is necessary for annexation into the City Pueblo. Proposed land
uses, within the first phase of annexation, include mixed residential development,
phase one of a small mixed commercial neighborhood center, with integrated open
space and trails. The total land area of all three annexations is 1,898.71 acres.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
None.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
Copies of the Petition for Annexation will be sent by registered mail by the City Clerk,
the Board of County Commissioners, the County Attorney of Pueblo County and to any
school district or special district having territory within the area to be annexed. Copies
of an Annexation Impact Report will be filed with all taxing entities as required by
Colorado Revised Statutes.
ALTERNATIVES:
If the extension is not approved, the applicant will be required to submit new petitions
for annexation and restart the annexation process. The extension of the review period
prior to final action on the petitions will allow the current process to continue.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Resolution.

RE: Jackson Ranch Annexation No. 1
Dear Mr. Hobson,
On behalf of RJPC, Ranch, LLC I would like to request an extension for a period of not more
than 180 days for final action of council on the annexation of the area commonly known as the
Jackson Ranch Annexation No. 1, which is located east of State Highway 78, in a portion of Sections
th
19 and 20, Township 21 South, Range 65 West of the 6 P.M., County of Pueblo, State of Colorado.
Although significant progress has been made, due to the size of the major utilities extension, we are
in ongoing discussion with the Pueblo Board of Water Works and the City’s Sanitary Sewer
Department. Also, the project continues to talk with School Districts 60 & 70. It appears we are close
to having final documents with current exchanges occurring regarding specific language in the
Annexation Agreement. We seek to work closely with City staff to find the best solutions.
I appreciate you submitting this to Council and Council’s consideration of this extension. The
th
current timeline for completion of the annexation is December 10, 2022. I would ask that you present
th
this to City Council at its meeting on November 28, 2022 so that we can keep this annexation project
moving forward.
Thank you for your courtesy and cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions or
concerns, you can reach me atJim.Houk@kimley-horn.com or 719-284-7280.
