3.B. Discuss and provide a recommendation to the City Council on the annexation of West Crete Addition.
Discussion:
City Administrator Tom Ourada explained the background of this proposal. West Crete is a six block subdivision outside of city limits and has been the subject of a number of discussions with past comprehensive planners. What has exacerbated the situation now are several properties not in compliance with wastewater standards and though not in city limits, they are in the city’s two-mile extraterritorial jurisdictions. The city is being asked by the state to relax sewer regulations, which can be problematic. One property is facing fines of $1,000 a month if not compliant. The city would need to come up with water and sewer extension estimates and an annexation timeline. If annexed, Crete City Code says properties have to connect to city sewer; the state will suspend the fines as long as the City is working on the annexation plan.
