SUBJECT: Ordinance Number 99-39: Lake Johio Annexation (Case Number AR-98-11-13) ISSUE: Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners adopt Ordinance Number 99-39 to annex the subject property described in the above referenced application? BACKGROUND: The subject property is located approximately 450 feet north of the Silver Star/Clarke Road intersection, east of Clarke Road. The 17.86± acre parcel contains three single family homes, pasture and associated barns. Annexation of the subject property would eliminate an existing enclave. The property is proposed for development as a single family subdivision. The subject property is designated Low Density Residential (< 4 du/acre) on the City Future Land Use Map and Joint Planning Area Map. The applicant has requested an Ocoee zoning classification of R-1A for Parcel 1 and R-1AAA for Parcel 2, Single Family Dwelling District, which would be consistent with the above referenced land use designation and character of the area (refer to Ordinance Number 99-39, Exhibit B). With respect to state annexation criteria, Chapter 171.044 of the Florida Statutes, grants municipalities the authority to annex contiguous, compact, non-circuitous territory so long as it does not create an enclave. The requested annexation satisfies the above criteria. The subject property is located within the Ocoee-Orange County Joint Planning Area (JPA) and the Ocoee Utility Service Area. Since the property is within the City's Service Area and contiguous to the City limits, the property is being considered for annexation as outlined in the JPA Agreement. We have notified Orange County Planning Staff of the Annexation Petition and they have no objections. The requested annexation is consistent with the JPA Agreement, state annexation criteria, and the standards established by the City. POIAirt erk- Protect Ocoee's Water Resources `3
