B-2 zoning is proposed. • 19444 Staff Report • 19444 Application Materials Community Development Manager Chris Saunders described the proposed annexation site on the southwest corner of Kagy and 19th. The city received no public comments on the proposal. Mr. Saunders described the zoning of the surrounding area and said the area proposed for annexation is only a portion of the parcel owned by the underlying landowner. Mr. Saunders answered Commission member questions about water rights and payment in lieu of water rights. 06:15:44 PM (00:16:07) Mr. Saunders also answered questions concerning street improvements to South 27th and intersection improvements of W. Kagy and south of 27th as these are a distance from S. 19th. Mr. Saunders addressed questions about the Storm Water Design Guidance and the seasonally high ground water in the area. 06:22:25 PM (00:22:48) Matt Hausauer of C & H Engineering, representing the applicant, described the proposed area as part of an acquisition of land of the applicant from the underlying landowner and is an expansion of University Crossing Development Subdivision. Mr. Hausauer said that the zoning of B-2M was considered, however B-2M is too controversial, so the applicant recommended the zoning of B-2. No water rights are being transferred from the underlying landowner in the acquisition. Irrigation will come from an existing irrigation well from the current University Crossing Development. Mr. Hausauer said the plans for the project are to get the annexation and initial zoning through the process and then plans are to submit a subdivision exemption to tie the area into the University Crossing Development Subdivision. 06:31:01 PM (00:31:24) Public Comment - None 06:31:46 PM (00:32:09) MOTION: Having reviewed and considered the staff report, application materials, public comment, and all information presented, I hereby adopt the findings presented in the staff report for application 19444 and move to approve the University Crossing 2020 Annexation with recommended terms of annexation, and direct staff to prepare an annexation agreement for signature by the parties.
