Louisville City Council Meeting August 19, 2003 Page 6 of 8 Planning Director Paul Wood reported the applicant/property owner STK Corporation submitted a petition to commence a voluntary annexation of approximately 80 acres located adjacent to and west of S. 96th Street, just south of the Paradise Lane Subdivision. The undeveloped parcel comprises the majority of the land holdings in the northeast quadrant of the STK Campus. The annexation petition was submitted on June 17, 2003 in conjunction with a request to zone the balance (320) acres) of the STK campus to Planned Community Zoned District (PCZD), and a request to amend the South Sub-Area Comprehensive Plan. Wood noted Staff and the City Attorney's offices have reviewed the petition and find it to be in compliance with the statutory requirements. The annexation map reflects a boundary contiguity of approximately 67% with the City of Louisville. The 80-acre parcel is subject to the terms and provisions of the Southeast Boulder County, South 96th Street, Dillon Road, and US 287 Area Comprehensive Plan (IGA) approved in February of 1999, where all parties agreed that only Louisville could develop the property. Wood stated the property owner is requesting the annexation parcel be zoned to City of Louisville Planning Community Zoned District - Commercial (PCZD-C) in conjunction with the annexation. If authorized by Council, the zoning would come before the Planning Commission on September 9, 2003. The adopted South Sub-Area Comprehensive Plan, as amended, states the 80-acre parcel should be designated as non- residential. Resolution No. 24, Series 2003, if approved, will set the public hearing for October 7, 2003. City Attorney Sam Light clarified that Resolution No. 24, Series 2003 finds the petition meets the statutory requirements and is not the resolution of eligibility. MOTION: Sisk moved that Council approve Resolution No. 24, Series 2003, seconded by Keany. All in favor. CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT None.
