History & Fact:

On May 23, 2005 the Mayor and Council approved an annexation agreement between the City and Squires Landing, LLC for 151.09 acres west of 20th Street from 8th Avenue north. In addition, ordinances were approved on that date to annex and zone the property PUD-R. In 2006 Wiseman Hughes Enterprises had an option on the property and submitted petitions to develop the Silverwood Subdivision. On October 17, 2006 the Mayor and Council approved a Conditional Use Permit, Preliminary Plat/PUD Plat and Planned Unit Development Agreement for the Silverwood Subdivision but these agreements were never executed.

Discussion:

The property has since been purchased by AKCK, LLC. A representative of AKCK, LLC has met with City staff to discuss modifications to the original annexation agreement with the intent of developing the 20th Street Subdivision. City Attorney, Alan Cooper, will provide information on the proposed modifications and respond to questions from the Mayor and City Council. It is anticipated that this item will be included as an action item on the February 14, 2011 City Council agenda.

Recommendation:

Conduct the Required Public Hearing
