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 owned by Phillips 66 located behind the United States Post Office and north of Lillian Avenue (Annexation #16-01) on February 22, 2016. This requires a change in the boundaries of Ward I. Two readings are required for this action. The first reading of the ordinance was conducted on March 14, 2016 along with a public hearing.
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 owned by Phillips 66.
- 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.
