TITLE:

title

Report on a request for annexation (ANX26-0001) of approximately 4.70 acres located northeast of W. 175th Street and Lone Elm Road.

Body

________________________________________________________________________________

Summary:

In accordance with K.S.A. 12-520(a)(7), Michael A. & Pernille B. Andree (“Petitioners”) have submitted a petition for annexation of one (1) property with a total land area of approximately 3.76 acres and Leobardo & Maria Valdez (“Petitioners”) have submitted a petition for annexation of one (1) property with a total land area of approximately 0.94 acres (Exhibit A). Both properties lie contiguous with the corporate boundaries of the City of Olathe.

Both properties are located north of W. 175th Street and east of S. Lone Elm Road. This property is within the City of Olathe’s Growth Area and is designated on the Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan as an Employment Area.

The petitioners are requesting annexation of both properties as annexation is required prior to zoning and development of each property. The annexation would eliminate an enclave within the City, which is an unincorporated area surrounded by property already within the City.

________________________________________________________________________________

Financial Impact:

Future development of the property will result in an increase in the City’s real property tax collections.

________________________________________________________________________________

Action Needed:

Accept the report. Unless otherwise directed, staff will place the Ordinance for annexation on a later City Council agenda for formal consideration.
