ITEM NO. c I r`/
FOR MEETING OF: February 6, 2001
ITEM TITLE: South 72"d Avenue Annexation Initiation
SUBMITTED BY: William R. Cook, Director of Community Economic Development
CONTACT PERSON / TELEPHONE: Bruce Benson, Associate Planner, 575-6042
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The proposed " South 72' Avenue " Annexation Area consists of approximately 986
acres including 1815 tax parcels (see map), which are worth $237,483,340 according to current
Yakima County assessed valuation. The population of the area is estimated to be 5075
persons.
This annexation is based upon Outside Utility Agreements from 1,341 of the 1,815
parcels. The combined assessed value of these 1,341 parcels is 77% of the area's total
assessed value. This 77% satisfies both the RCW 35.13.125 requirement for initiation of an
annexation, (10% of the assessed value of the annexation area) and the RCW 35.13.130
requirement for completion of an annexation (75% of the assessed value of the area).
At this time City Council is being asked to act upon this request and adopt the resolution
initiating the South 72"d Avenue.
