PURPOSE:
Pamela and Alberto Rodriguez have petitioned for annexation of their property located at 3443 Randleman Road. In order to consider the annexation covered by this petition, the City Council must set a public hearing.
BACKGROUND:
This noncontiguous annexation is within the Tier 1 Growth Area on the Growth Strategy Map in the Comprehensive Plan.
City water will be available by connecting to the 8-inch line located within Randleman 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 located approximately 460 feet south of the site. The applicant has been advised that sewer might need to come from the rear of the property. 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 located in the Pinecroft-Sedgefield Fire District, but City Station #61 on West Vandalia Road (northwest of the request) is first to respond. Pinecroft-Sedgefield Station #24 on Bishop Road (west of the request) also provides service to the subject parcel. Upon annexation, the property will continue to be served by City Station #61. The multi-unit response time would improve if annexed.
The Police Department can provide comparable response service to the property under consideration as of the date of annexation. Additional resources may be required as development on the subject property and/or additional annexation in the general area occurs.
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, east 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 Zoning Commission and to City Council. The Zoning Commission will make a recommendation on this annexation at its September 21, 2020 meeting.
Accordingly, it is recommended that on September 15, 2020, the City Council adopt a resolution calling a public hearing for October 20, 2020, on the annexation of the above-mentioned property to the City of Greensboro.
