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) , Additionally, both the Metro Plan and the applicable refinement plan, the River Road-Santa Clara Urban Facilities Plan, designate the annexation area as appropriate for Commercial use. If the annexation is approved, per EC 9.7820(3), the annexation area will remain zoned R -1, and the IUL overlay will be automatically removed from the annexation area. As previously discussed in this subsection, and furtl,ter 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 the applicable refmement plan. . ....
