| | | |
| | | | | | | | Subject:
Annexation of Property – Hwy. 169 & Hwy. 69 Public Right-of-Way, and City Property Southwest of Town Square Mall | | |
| | | | | | | | Policy/Action Requested:
Approve Resolution No. 7874, a resolution approving the annexation of portions of State Highway 169 & County Road 69 right-of-way, and a City owned parcel just south and west of 1212 Shakopee Town Square Mall, and move the adoption. | | |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation:
Planning Commission Recommendation
The Planning Commission reviewed this application at their April 6, 2017 meeting, and by a 5-0 vote, recommended that the City Council approve the request, as it is generally consistent with the OAA regulations which govern this type of request.
| | |
| | | | | | | | Discussion:
The City of Shakopee has submitted an application for annexation of portions of State Highway 169 & County Road 69 right-of-way, and a City owned parcel just south and west of 1212 Shakopee Town Square Mall. The property is approx. 98 acres, with the majority of the acreage being public right-of-way, with a small city owned parcel (see attached site maps).
Per the existing Orderly Annexation Agreement (OAA) between the City and Jackson Township, Sections II.3 & II.7 allows for the city annexation because the property proposed in this request is either undeveloped or owned by the City, and more than 50% of it is adjacent to and surrounded by the City.
Additionally, Staff recently received a letter from Timothy J. Keane, on behalf of the Jackson Town Board, regarding a request that no additional annexation applications be processed under the existing OAA until the updated OAA is complete. That letter is attached to this report.

| | | | | | | | Budget Impact:
Minimal impact, as the property is public right-of-way and a city owned parcel. | | |
