PURPOSE:
The adopted policy allows City Council to grant approval of utility extensions and connections outside of the City of Greensboro's corporate limits. This resolution will allow the developer to extend City water and sewer lines and connect to the system as Stoney Creek, Phases 20, 21, 23 and 24 develops these tracts.
BACKGROUND:
The City currently has public water and sanitary sewer lines located within portions of the Stoney Creek, Phases 20, 21, 23 and 24. The development has secured various County and City approvals to date and this resolution will allow the development to continue.
On April 3, 2012 and again on May 20, 2014, City Council adopted the "City of Greensboro Policy - Water & Sewer Services Outside the Corporate Limits" to address the extension of water and sanitary sewer lines and to allow for extensions and connections outside of the City of Greensboro's corporate limits.
Stoney Creek, Phases 20, 21, 23 and 24 is not eligible for annexation because it is located closer to Whitsett's primary corporate limits then it is to Greensboro's corporate limits.
This resolution will allow for the extension of and connection to water and sanitary sewer lines to provide service to Stoney Creek, Phases 20, 21, 23 and 24, in anticipation of annexation in the future as the property becomes eligible. This item was referred to Council by the Infrastructure Committee.
BUDGET IMPACT:
This item will have no effect on future budgets since the developer will be responsible for the connections to and extension of utilities.
