PURPOSE:
Oliver Enterprises of Greensboro, LLC and Ellen Fields have petitioned for annexation of their property located at 2335 and 2351 Campground Road. In order to consider the annexation covered by this petition, the City Council must set a public hearing.
BACKGROUND:
This property is within the Tier 1 Growth Area (2013-2019) on the Growth Strategy Map in the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed use for this site is industrial.
City water will be available by connecting to the 24-inch line located in Campground Road to the west of the site. In order for this site to be served with water the owner would be responsible for all costs associated with extending and connecting to the public line.
City sewer will be available by connecting to the outfall located to the south of the site. In order for this site to be served with sanitary sewer the owner would be responsible for all costs associated with extending and connecting to the public line.
The City’s Fire Department notes that this site is currently served by Pinecroft Sedgefield Station #24 on Bishop Road (southwest) and upon annexation will be served by City Station #48 on West Vandalia Road (northeast). Service will improve to this location and within our standard of coverage.
The Police Department can provide service with little difficulty.
Provision of other City services will involve a travel distance almost equal to that necessary to provide service to the previously-annexed property located to the north and east.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Initial service will be absorbed in the budget; future services will have an incremental effect on future budgets, including an estimated $8,755 dollars per year for police personnel and equipment.
RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUESTED:
The Technical Review Committee (TRC) recommended this annexation to the Planning Board and to City Council. The Planning Board recommended this annexation at its May meeting on a vote of 6-0.
Accordingly, it is recommended that on June 19, 2018, the City Council adopt a resolution calling a public hearing for July 17, 2018, on the annexation of the above-mentioned property to the City of Greensboro.
