Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Chris Kukulski, City Manager
Andy Epple, Director of Planning
SUBJECT: File #A-06008 – Kagy Gardens: Request for Extension of Preliminary Annexation
Approval (Jerry Smania, Applicant)
MEETING DATE: January 22, 2007
BACKGROUND: Kagy Gardens was preliminarily approved for annexation on October 2, 2006, with
a standard condition that the Annexation Agreement be executed and returned for final approval by no
later than January 30, 2007. In conjunction with the annexation proposal, the applicants had applied for
initial municipal zoning of R-2. After considering public testimony, the Commission granted preliminary
zoning approval of R-S for the subject property.
PROPOSAL: The applicant is requesting a 60 day extension to the January 30th deadline, to allow his
team time to work with neighbors on alternative design schemes, and to submit a new zoning application
for the subject property for R-1 (see attached letter from Mr. Smania dated January 3, 2007, and original
annexation application materials).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the requested 60 day extension of preliminary annexation
approval, to allow the applicant an opportunity to work on a design scheme more compatible with the
neighborhood, while complying with the adopted Growth Policy for the area.
FISCAL EFFECTS: None identified
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission.
Respectfully submitted,
