The City has received a Petition to Annex 21.8 acres of land from the sole property owner. 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 by City utilities. 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 zoned property except to the south, which is M-H, Mobile Home District. The site is currently being graded for future development, which will require a Grading Permit be issued upon annexation. City Council will make the final zoning determination at the time of annexation.

There is an existing drainage facility in the northeast part or the parcel. The owner has committed to plat this area as a tract and deed it to the City for use and future maintenance.

An Annexation Report has been distributed to the property owner, in accordance with State Statutes, that states the terms and conditions of the annexation and all public notices have been completed.

 

I move for Approval of an Ordinance Approving and Authorizing the Extension of the Boundaries of the City of Gillette, Wyoming, and Annexation of a Tract of Land Known as the Betcher Annexation, Contiguous and Adjoining the Present Boundaries, and Establishing a C-3, Business/Services District, and a I-1, Light Industrial District, Subject to all Planning Requirements.
