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 at the southeast corner of Bench Boulevard and Yellowstone River Road (Annexation #13-03) on April 22, 2013. This requires a change in the boundaries of Ward I. Two readings are required for this action. The first reading of the ordinance was approved May 13, 2013, and a public hearing was conducted. The second reading is scheduled for this meeting.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
City Council may approve or not approve the ordinance to amend the boundaries of Ward I on second reading.
- Approving the ordinance will modify the boundaries of Ward I to include the property at the southeast corner of Bench Boulevard and Yellowstone River Road.
- Denying the ordinance will not modify the boundaries of Ward I 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 approve this ordinance on second reading adding recently annexed property to Ward I.
