PURPOSE:
Sun Capital, LLC has petitioned for annexation of their property located at 5908, 5910 and 5812 Lake Brandt Road and 2000, 2018 and 2020 Trosper 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 to be developed as residential and commercial / retail.
City water will be available by connecting to the 12-inch line located in Lake Brandt Road or the 8-inch line located in Trosper Road. 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 8-inch line to either the northeast or the south of the site. The 8-inch sewer line will need to be extended from the existing manhole westward across the property frontage. 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 Summerfield Station #39 and upon annexation will be served by City Station #41 on Lake Brandt Road (south).
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 east, south and west.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Initial service will be absorbed in the budget; future services will have an incremental effect on future budgets.
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 8-0-1. Accordingly, it is recommended that on June 20, 2017, the City Council adopt a resolution calling a public hearing for July 18, 2017, on the annexation of the above-mentioned property to the City of Greensboro.
