Jehovah's Witness Annexation

Description

The church wants its two Highway 14 parcels annexed into the city so it can connect to utilities along the new Legacy Addition road; a future rezone will follow.

Impact summary

The property comes into the city as agricultural zoning even though it's too small to meet that district's 35-acre minimum, so a rezone to civic or residential will come later.
