PUBLIC HEARING ITEM CONTINUED - Roy J. Lacey has requested annexation and
a combined zoning classification of Residential 2 and Residential 1 with
respect to a parcel of land located in the South ½ of the N.E.¼ of the
N.E.¼ of Sec. 4, Township 6 South, Range 34 E.B.M., Bannock County.
Parcel contains 16.3 acres of property. Mr. Lacey is proposing to
develop the Espie Addition Subdivision on same.
Mr. Lacey told mayor and council that because of the cost of annexation
and developing, he is considering delaying his development. He asked
the city for an estimate of his costs and asked if they would approve
zoning, annexation and plat and then if he finds that he can proceed
he can go ahead with his plans.
Mayor Cotant told Mr. Lacey that the costs would need to be at least the
same as the agreement with Heritage West developers which is $540.00
per lot, that the city would need to adopt ordinance on annexation and
zoning when approved and also enter into a pre-annexation agreement on
fees, so it would be difficult to approve subject to his acceptance.
Mayor Cotant suggested to Mr. Lacey that he research further as to his
ability and desire to continue his development plans, annexation and
zoning classification request.
It was noted that the city did not meet the publication requirement on
the public hearing notice on the preliminary plat of the Espie Addition
and that proper notice would be given and Mr. Lacey could go back to the
Land Use Commission meeting on November 6 and city council on November ll,
1980.
Mr. Lacey said that would be satisfactory with him as he was considering
a change in the preliminary plat.
Other items discussed in relation to the development, 1)pressure irrigation
system 2) donation of park ground 3) looped water lines 4) time table
and fees to be set in pre-annexation agreement.
Councilman Kinghorn moved to table the annexation and zoning classification
hearing until after the preliminary plat public hearing requirement has
been met. Councilwoman Hopkins seconded motion, voting was unanimous
in favor.
