TO:Planning Commission
Subject:
Annexation of Property – 12800 Marystown Road
Policy/Action Requested:
Offer and pass a motion recommending approval of the annexation request as recommended by staff.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission forward a recommendation of approval for this request to the City Council, as it is generally consistent with the OAA regulations which govern this type of request.
Discussion:
Friendship Baptist Church has submitted to the City an application for annexation of property known as 12800 Marystown Road. The parcel in question is their church, located on approx. 40 acres at the northwest corner of CR 78 & CR 15 (Marystown Road). The Church is looking at future development opportunities for some of their land.

Per the existing Orderly Annexation Agreement (OAA) between the City and Jackson Township, Sections II.2 & II.4, a land owner with property adjacent to the municipal boundary of the City may petition the City to annex their property in accordance with this agreement. This proposal is consistent with the agreement language, therefore, the applicant submitted the application for review/approval by the City.
