Griffiths read by title only Ordinance no. 1234, Series 1996, "An ordinance approving an annexation, known as the Martens Annexation, to the City of Louisville, Colorado." Paul Wood, Planning Director, stated this will authorize the annexation of approximately six acres owned by Adrian D. Games. The Martens conveyed title to Games on January 30, 1997. Four special provisions had been included in the annexation agreement: Waiver of the Capital Improvement Fee for the residential unit. This fee would not be assessed for an existing residential structure or the replacement of that structure. The "Owner" has represented that there are no water rights appurtenant to the subject property. Louisville will not require "Owner" to dedicate, transfer, or convey any water rights, nor require "Owner" to pay any fee in lieu thereof, to Louisville as a condition of the annexation of the property. However, the "Owner", at the time of the subdivision and/or PUD approval, shall pay a water resource fee in the amount of $1,290.00/gross acre, excluding land conveyed to the City for public uses, for raw water acquisition in accordance with Resolution No. 52, Series 1988, as amended by Resolution No. 9, Series 1989. Nothing herein constitutes a waiver of or deferral from the City building permit process or fees and the existing residence and proposed future structures shall be subject to all building requirements of the City. At the request of the City, the "Owner" will sign a petition for inclusion of the "Owner's" property into both the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District and the Metropolitan District (Sub-District). The "Owner" shall be responsible to pay all fees and costs associated with the petition and inclusion process. The "Owner" understands that the City will not be obligated to provide water service until the "Owner" has successfully completed the inclusion process. Wood stated that the applicant was requesting reimbursement of the $660.00 annexation fee, which was paid at the time the annexation petition was submitted. This request had not been added as a special provision to the annexation agreement. Staff requested, by separate motion, that the annexation agreement be adopted by separate action. Davidson opened the public hearing and called for the applicant's presentation. Peter Stewart, architect, 1132 Jefferson Avenue, pointed out that they requested Agricultural zoning. Davidson called for anyone wishing to speak on this ordinance. NONE Davidson called for Council comments, questions, or motions.
