Policy 16. Ultimately, land within the UGB shall be annexed to a city and provided with the required minimum level of urban facilities and services. While the time frame for annexation may vary, annexation should occur as land transitions from urbanizable to urban. (page II-C-5) The Metro Plan designates the annexation area as appropriate for low-density residential use. TheRiver Road / Santa Clara Urban Facilities Plan is the adopted refinement plan for the annexation area and also designates the area for low-density residential use. The subject property is mostly zoned AG/WR/UL, Agricultural with Water Resources and Urbanizable Land overlay zones. A small portion of the subject property, abutting River Road, is currently zoned R-1/WR/UL, Low Density Residential with Water Resources and Urbanizable Land overlay zones. Upon annexation, the /UL overlay will automatically be removed. The /WR overlay will remain. The /WR overlay was applied in order to protect the portion of Spring Creek which bisects the parcel. No development is proposed with this annexation application. The applicant intends on subsequently filing zone change and subdivision applications for future single-family development. As previously discussed in this subsection, and further detailed under subsection (3) below, the proposed annexation is consistent with Metro Plan growth management policies and can be served by the minimum level of key urban services. The annexation procedures beginning at EC 9.7800 are consistent with State law and therefore, as found throughout this report, the annexation is consistent with State law. EC 9.7825(3) The proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level of key urban facilities and services, as defined in the Metro Plan, can be provided in an orderly, efficient, and timely manner. Findings: The proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level Complies of key urban facilities and services can be provided in an orderly, efficient, and timely manner as detailed below: YES NO Wastewater Public wastewater is available to serve the subject property. Several public wastewater lines have been stubbed to the property boundaries within the adjacent streets. Stormwater Spring Creek flows through the center of the site, which is a Goal 5 adopted riparian resource with a 20-foot setback. Stormwater discharge is possible, subject to the water being pre-treated and, if there are any downstream capacity issues, detained on-site to reduce peak flows. The development review process (i.e. subdivision) will include an evaluation for minimizing and mitigating natural resource impacts. Compliance with the stormwater development standards for pre-treatment and any detention requirements will be confirmed during the development permit process.
