Title
SETTING OF HEARING DATE FOR POST-ANNEXATION HEARING CITY OF DERBY.
Presented by: Justin Waggoner, Assistant County Counselor.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Set the public hearing on December 6, 2017, and authorize the County Counselor’s Office to mail the notice of hearing to property owners and the City of Derby.
Body
K.S.A. 12-531 requires the Board to hold a hearing three years after the effective date of any annexation in which a city was required to prepare a service plan showing services to be extended to the area to be annexed. Notice of the hearing, once set, will be provided to the City of Derby (“City”) and to all landowners residing in the area annexed, by first class mail prepaid.
The City annexed 17 total parcels by Ordinance No. 2213, which became effective on December 3, 2014. A prehearing questionnaire was sent to the current property owners in the annexed area, as well as to the City.
Analysis: At the hearing the Board hears evidence from the City and landowners concerning whether the services were extended as provided in the service plan. The Board then makes a finding whether the services were extended. If the Board finds the services were not extended, then the City and the landowners are notified the area may be de-annexed from the City if the services are not provided within the next 1 ½ years.
Alternatives: A) Set the hearing date as proposed
