Council Communication

Title:	A Resolution of the City of Ashland Annexing a Contiguous Area to the City of Ashland, Oregon, and Providing for an Effective Date. (Russ Dale Annexation, 250 Clay Street)
Dept:	Legal Department
Date:	December 16, 2003
Submitted By:	Paul Nolte
Approved By: ...........................	Gino Grimaldi, City Administrator

Synopsis:	The council approved the annexation of this property on February 4, 2003. The annexation is now ready to be completed as the survey was recently finalized and filed with the city. The required consent to annexation is attached to the resolution.
Recommendation:	Move to adopt the resolution annexing this property.
Fiscal Impact:	The annexed property will become part of the city=s tax base for purposes of property taxation.
Background:	There are three phases to a "full consent" annexation (where all of the landowners and at least 50% of the electors residing in the area to be annexed have consented to the annexation). The first phase is the land use phase coordinated through the planning department where hearings are held before the planning commission and the council. That phase was completed in February 2003 when the council held a hearing and voted to approve the annexation. The second phase is before the council in this proceeding. The property is annexed by resolution of the council, which was delayed pending the finalization of the survey description of the property to be annexed. The third phase involves the withdrawal of the annexed area from any special district. For Ashland, the only special district the city generally withdraws from is Jackson County Fire District #5. This phase involves a public hearing and council adoption of an ordinance withdrawing the area from the district.
