Exhibit C Therrell (A 19-2) August 2019 Page 2 Policy 15. 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 11-C-5) The following policy from the Residential Element of the Metro Plan is also applicable: Policy A.2 Residentially designated land within the UGB should be zoned consistent with the Metro Plan, and applicable plans and policies; however, existing agricultural zoning may be continued within the area between the city limits and UGB until rezoned for urban uses. The Metro Plan designates the property to be annexed as appropriate for low-density residential use. The River Road - Santa Clara Urban Facilities Plan (RR/SC UFP) is the adopted refinement plan for the subject property and designates the area for residential uses. The property is zoned AG Agricultural with /UL Urbanizable Land overlay. The /UL overlay will be automatically removed from the property following annexation approval. With regard to applicable policies of the RR/SC UFP, none of the general "Residential Land Use Policies" at Section 2.2 appear to be directly applicable to the subject request. The "Public Facilities and Services Element' policies of the RR/SC UFP are directed at local government; however, the premise of these policies (regarding the provision of urban services) is the assumption that property within the UGB will be annexed. 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. Therefore, based on the findings above, the proposal is consistent with the applicable policies of the Metro Plan and RR/SC UFP refinement plan. 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. Complies Findings: Consistent with this criterion, the proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level of key urban facilities and services can be ❑ ❑ NO YES provided in an orderly, efficient, and timely manner as detailed below: Wastewater The subject property is connected to the city service via a 4 -inch tap to a 6 -inch line located in the southwest corner of the lot. An 8 -inch city line is located within the Swain Lane right-of-way. Therrell (A 19-2) August 2019 Page 2
