Body
BACKGROUND:  Petitioner Ken Lynch of KTL Holdings, Inc. is requesting approval of an annexation agreement for 13 acres of land located at 9818 N Allen Road.  The land is partially developed with an approximately 5,000 sq.ft., two story commercial building.  The property also includes a wireless communication tower facility.
 
Proposed terms of the Annexation Agreement include:
1)                     Property shall be zoned Class C-2 (Large Scale Commercial).
2)                     Connection to public sanitary sewer and water required upon non-agricultural development of the property.
3)                     Annexation to occur upon expansion of existing building, new or additional commercial/industrial development/uses, or failure of existing septic system.
 
The Planning & Zoning Commission found that the request met the Findings of Fact and voted 7 to 0, to APPROVE the request.
 
See the attached Planning & Zoning Commission case packet and meeting minutes for detailed information.
 
FINANCIAL IMPACT:  No expense to the City of Peoria.  Additional tax revenue upon annexation and development.
 
NEIGHBORHOOD CONCERNS (at the Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting):  Two representatives from the Dunlap Library District objected to the annexation due to the loss of tax revenue.
