Summary
The proposed annexation consists of approximately 229.99 acres of land located at the northeast corner of Wells Branch Parkway and Immanuel Road within the City's extraterritorial jurisdiction. The City will be the retail water and wastewater service provider for the subject property. The subject property is contiguous to properties within the City limits and therefore is eligible for voluntary annexation in accordance with state law.
The subject property is governed by a Non-Annexation Agreement. The property owners desire to sell a portion of the northern tract of land along Wells Branch. Per the Non-Annexation Agreement, the first submittal of a development application by the property owner(s), successors or assigns would be construed as a petition for voluntary annexation by the property owners. In anticipation of selling a portion of the property for development, the property owners have submitted a formal application for annexation of all acreage covered by the Non-Annexation Agreement. Chapter 43, Subchapter C-3 of the Texas Local Government Code authorizes Tier 2 municipalities, including the City, to annex property on the request of all property owners in an area. Pursuant to Texas Local Government Code Section 43.067 et seq., the City entered into a written agreement with the owners of land in the area for the provision of City services on July 24, 2018.
