The City has received a Petition to Annex 21.8 acres of land from the sole property owner to facilitate development on a portion of the property in question.

The property is located southwest of the intersection of Shoshone Avenue and Butler Spaeth Road. The property is vacant and surrounded by land already within the City Limits. This area is a logical extension of the City limits and will be serviceable. Any future development or construction will be reviewed by the City and meet City standards.

The landowner is requesting zoning of C-3, Business/Services District, and I-1, Light Industrial District. The adopted Comprehensive Plan shows the area as Mixed Use. There is adjacent Commercial and Industrial property. City Council will make the final zoning determination at the time of annexation.

An Annexation Report will be prepared and distributed in accordance with State Statutes.

I move for Approval of a Resolution Initiating Annexation of a Tract of Land Contiguous to the City of Gillette, Wyoming, Pursuant to W.S. 14-1-403 and 15-1-405, Known as the Betcher Annexation, and Establishing a Public Hearing Date of July 21, 2015, for the Annexation Public Hearing.
