PUBLIC HEARINGS:
MAYOR HENDLER DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN TO CONSIDER THE
ANNEXATION PETITION SUBMITTED BY ROBERT BRADSHAW.
It was noted that the Hearing had been duly publicized as
required by law and proposed area had been posted. There were no
written communications.
Mr. David McDonald reported that the City Council accepted a
petition for annexation, and by motion, set 8:00 P.M., Monday,
September 18, 1989 as the time and date for a public hearing.
The Franklin County Boundary Review Board has previously reviewed
this annexation matter and decided not to invoke jurisdiction.
The signatures on the annexation petition are sufficient to
constitute a legally acceptable petition under the sixty percent
(60%) method of annexation.
The proposed Ordinance, if adopted, would cause the property in
question to be annexed after publication of the Ordinance in the
newspaper, subject to the following conditions:
1. Zoning will be assigned subsequent to annexation.
2. The area will be assigned to Voting District No. 2.
3. The area will not assume any existing bonded indebtedness.
Mr. Leonard Harm, representing Dr. Robert Bradshaw, complimented
City staff for their cooperation in bringing this request to a
conclusion. He felt it was a positive move forward and not just
for financial benefit.
Following three (3) calls for further comments from the floor,
either for or against, the Public Hearing was declared closed.
