Mr. Hamel moved, seconded by Mr. Bradley, that the bill be approved and given final passage. Roll call vote. All Councilors present votin9 aye, the bill was declared passed and numbered 18165. . B. Concurrent Annexations and Rezonings 1. Property located. both sides of Arcadia Drive, north of Harlow Road (Tronrud, O'Donnell et al) (A/Z 77-11) and property located between Calvin Street and Arcadia Orive north of Harlow Road (Nelson/Gent) (A/Z 78-1) from County RA to City R-l. Unanimously recommended by Planninq Commission March 14, 1978. Ivlr. Saul said his comments would pertain to both parcels as they are in the same area in Willakenzie and were contiquous properties. The Tronrud/O'Donnell property included 16 parcels of land, appro- ximately 9.95 acres, which was subdivided some years ago in the county and developed with single-family residences. The annexation had been petitioned by the owners of the property to obtain sanitary sewers. The Nelson/Gent property contained three parcels of land of approximately two acres. This was also zoned Sinqle-Family Residential. He said these parcels were located within an overall island, in that the city completely surrounds the area. The Planning Commission noted the full range of urban services can be provided and the annexations meet all criteria. Mr. Lieuallen requested information as to the nature of level of . development that exists in the area now, and whether the properties would have to be brought up to an acceptable level regarding City services. Mr. Saul said at this time the number of urban services in the area is somewhat limited. One of the first that would have to be provided would be sanitary sewers; storm sewers would have to be provided also. Arcadia Street would have to be developed, as it is not an arterial; the development probably would not occur until the City received a 50 percent petition. There are other services that the City ultimately would have to consider in this area, such as additional park land, which is needed in the entire Willakenzie area. Also there are no sidewalks and those would not be developed until the street improvement was established. He said regarding the street riqht-of-way alonq Arcadia, the City would have to acquire right-of-way to expand the street from 40 to 50 feet in some areas. Mr. Saul said if Mr. Lieuallen's concern ~as whether or not the area was a problem area in terms of overall quality structures existin~, then it is not a problem. There are well-kept and main- tained homes. It is, however, an area where an urban service level will . have to be installed after the annexation. No ex parte contacts or conflicts of interest were declared by Council ors. Staff notes and minutes were entered as part of the record by reference thereto. - 4/24/78 - 2 2..1'
