The Culver Town Council members during their meeting Tuesday night reviewed the proposed annexation ordinance and accompanying resolution that outlines a fiscal plan for the provision of services to the annexed area.
The ordinance pertains to the annexation of 18710 Tamarack Road into the town limits of Culver. Beachview Properties, LLC filed the petition for annexation for the purposes of gathering utilities for the construction of executive storage for RVs, boats and miscellaneous property. The 4.5 acre property is currently zoned C-2 and it will continue with the same zoning with this project.
A public hearing on the proposed annexation was held during the board’s last meeting in January.
The ordinance was approved on first reading with a unanimous vote by the town council Tuesday night. Additional readings will be considered in a future meeting.
The accompanying fiscal plan states that the area to be annexed will be provided with access to municipal sanitary sewers, which are currently located approximately 1,225 feet north of the property line on South Main Street. The cost of extending sanitary sewers from the current South Main Street location will be approximately $475,000. There is also a sewer line east of the area on West Shore Drive, approximately 315 feet from the area. The cost of extending sanitary sewer at this location would be approximately $122,000.
A one-time sewer development charge will be assessed to this development based on the size of the water line installed.
The plan also states that the town currently has an existing water main near the area on the northeast corner of the property line. A tap charge will be assessed for the water line extension. All drainage improvements within the site would be constructed at the expense of the developer.
The extension of these capital services shall be completed within three years of annexation.
The Culver Town Council approved the fiscal plan resolution with a unanimous vote.
