Title
Approving a resolution with the caption: Resolution of the City of Pflugerville authorizing the City Manager to execute a Post-Annexation Provision of Services Agreement with Hagn & Timmerman, Ltd., providing that upon annexation the City will provide standard City services to a tract of land totaling approximately 1.416 acres situated in the T.S. Barnes Survey No. 46, Abstract No. 67, Travis County, Texas, within the City's extraterritorial jurisdiction.
Summary
Chapter 43, Subchapter C-3 of the Texas Local Government Code authorizes municipalities to annex property on the request of all property owners in an area. However, pursuant to Texas Local Government Code Section 43.0672, the City must first negotiate and enter into a written agreement with the owners of land in the area for the provision of City services. The attached agreement satisfies this requirement and includes a list of each service the City will provide on the effective date of the annexation and a schedule that includes the period within which the City will provide each service that is not provided on the effective date of the annexation. The attached agreement will be effective upon the City’s adoption of an ordinance annexing the area.
Initially, the property owner petitioned for annexation of the parent tract, totaling 126.952 acres in the fall of 2020; however, the property owner requested a postponement after the 1st reading of the annexation ordinance in November. Recently, the property owner formally withdrew the initial petition for annexation and submitted a petition for annexation only to include a sliver of land anticipated for the extension of Helios Way immediately north of property owned by RNDC.
The proposed annexation consists of approximately 1.416 acres located south of E. Pecan Street and west of Biltmore Avenue, within the City's extraterritorial jurisdiction. The subject property is contiguous to properties within the City limits and therefore is eligible for voluntary annexation in accordance with state law. The area is unimproved and therefore does not incur maintenance/operations expenses.
City Attorney has approved the resolution as to form.
