MEMORANDUM
December 26, 2002
TO:Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
FROM:Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager
SUBJECT:Annexation Request - Tanzanite Drive Right-of-way
This memo transmits for City Council approval a voluntary annexation request for two
parcels that comprise a portion of the right-of-way for Tanzanite Drive. A resolution
and map are attached.
The two lots total approximately three acres. The City purchased these two lots to
develop the extension of Tanzanite Drive from the Emerald Acres and Alpine Park
developments to relocated Highway 386.
Since the lots are within two miles of the Sageville city limits, the State of Iowa's City
Development Board must approve the request.
To meet the State's notification requirements, staff recommends that the City Council
set the annexation request for a public hearing on Monday, February 3, 2003.
Staff recommends approval of the annexation request after the public hearing.
