City election ward boundaries must be adjusted to conform to city limit amendments resulting from annexation of property into the City. The City Council approved annexing property owned by Janet R. Bergman (Annexation #16-05) on November 28, 2016. The subject property is about 17 acres in size and described as Tract 3 and a portion of Tract 4 and Tract 5, Certificate of Survey 1648. The property is located west of Shiloh Road and between Central Avenue and Bell Avenue, just west of Legends West Subdivision. This requires a change in the boundaries of Ward V. Two readings are required for this action. The first reading of the ordinance was held on December 12, 2016 along with a public hearing, and the second reading is scheduled for this meeting.

↵City Council may approve or not approve the ordinance to amend the boundaries of Ward V on second reading.

• Approving the ordinance will modify the boundaries of Ward V to include the property owned by Janet R. Bergman.
• Not approving the ordinance will not modify the boundaries of Ward V and create a problem where property inside the City Limits is not within one of the City Ward Boundaries.

There is no budget/financial impact from this action.

Staff recommends that the City Council approve this ordinance on second reading, adding recently annexed property to Ward V.
