2) Connection to public sanitary sewer and water shall be required upon non-agricultural development;
3) The annexation is not valid or effective until such time as Meijer closes on the purchase of the property, but no later than September 30, 2017.
The Planning & Zoning Commission found that the request met the Findings of Fact and voted 5 to 0 TO APPROVE.
