BACKGROUND:
* Petitioner/Property Owner: C.L.D. Properties, LTD
* Agent: Tracy Rains, Dinkins Realty, LLC
The subject property, located at 4001 NW Blitchton Road (Parcel ID 21537-002-00), spans approximately 1.29 acres. It was originally developed as a saloon in Marion County, but the building was destroyed by fire and demolished in 1995. Since then, the property has been used for overflow tractor-trailer truck parking for nearby commercial businesses.
The current request includes concurrent applications to change the property's land use classification from Commercial (County) to Medium Intensity/Special District (City) (LUC24-45821), and to rezone it from B-2 (Marion County, Community Business) to B-2 (City, Community Business) (ZON24-45822). The proposed annexation would not create an enclave and the subject property is adjacent to the City limits and to properties already served by City utilities.
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
The requested annexation reduces an existing enclave. The proposed annexation will not create an enclave and the subject property is serviced by city utilities. Staff recommends approval.
