| An Ordinance Approving and Authorizing the Extension of the Boundaries of the City of Gillette, Wyoming, and Annexation of Territory Solely Owned by the City of Gillette to be Known as the Butler Spaeth Right of Way Annexation to the City of Gillette, Wyoming, in Accordance with W.S. 15-1-407, Contiguous and Adjoining the Present Boundaries and Establishing an I-1, Light Industrial Zoning District, Subject to All Planning Requirements. |
| BACKGROUND: |
First Reading: 7/0
The City of Gillette (the applicant) is requesting annexation of a 0.965 acre parcel situated in the SE1/4 NW1/4 and the SW1/4 NE1/4 of Section 2, T49N, R72W, Campbell County, Wyoming. The applicant is requesting this parcel to be zoned I-1, Light Industrial District.
The proposed annexation area is generally located south of Shoshone Avenue. The annexation area encompasses City-owned right-of-way that was purchased in 2006 from the adjacent landowners when Butler Spaeth Road was constructed. The proposed annexation area is 100% contiguous to the corporate limits of the City of Gillette; the entire parcel is surrounded by the City’s corporate limits.
In accordance with Wyoming Statute 15-1-407, the City may annex territory without conducting a Public Hearing per W.S. 15-1-405 and without preparing the annexation report or estimates required by W.S. 15-1-402(c) and (e) and 15-1-404(a)(ii)(C) and (D), since the City is the sole owner of the territory being annexed.
The proposed annexation area is a logical extension of the City Limits and fulfills a goal of the City’s 2013 Comprehensive Plan Update and Future Land Use Plan by annexation of County “Islands.”
The City's agent, Doyle Land Surveying, will address all comments and concerns in ePlans before the annexation plat is recorded at the Campbell County Clerk's Office.
Staff recommends approval to annex 0.965 acres of land known as the Butler Spaeth Right-of-Way Annexation with I-1, Light Industrial District Zoning, subject to all Planning Requirements. |
