Information
PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
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 the annexation of property addressed as 1228 and 1236 Mullowney Lane (Annexation #13-02) on March 25, 2013. This requires a change in the boundaries of Ward III. Two readings are required for this action. The first reading of the ordinance is scheduled for April 22, 2013, along with a public hearing, and the second reading is scheduled for May 13, 2013.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
City Council may:
- Approve first reading of the ordinance to amend the boundaries of Ward III. Approving the ordinance will modify the boundaries of Ward III to include the property at 1228 and 1236 Mullowney Lane.
- Not approve first reading of the ordinance to amend the boundaries of Ward III. Not approving the ordinance will not modify the boundaries of Ward III and create a problem where property inside the City Limits is not within one of the City Ward Boundaries.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no budget/financial impact from this action.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council hold a public hearing and approve this ordinance on first reading adding recently annexed property to Ward III.
