SUBJECT Public Hearing - De -annexation of an approximately 3,441 square
foot strip of land - South Woodland Drive and Quincy Loop
MEETING DATE: September 2, 2008
BACKGROUND: In October of 2003 the city council approved an annexation, initial
zoning and subdivision request for the River Glen Subdivision. This 3.4 acre
subdivision is located on the east side of South Woodland Drive immediately south of
Quincy Loop. The legal description attached with the annexation and initial zoning
request stated that the property to be annexed included all of lot 26 and a portion of
lot 25, Greenacres Subdivision, Block 1.
Unfortunately, six months earlier the property owners of lots 25 and 26 recorded a
boundary line adjustment between the two lots. As part of this boundary line
adjustment a former 10-foot wide by 326-foot long portion of lot 26 was now included
in lot 25 (now designated lot 25A). This long rectangular strip encompassing
approximately 3,441 square feet was then incorrectly included in the legal description
for the River Glen Subdivision's annexation.
Lorna Wilson, owner of lot 25A, is still outside the city limits, however, is paying city
taxes in addition to state and county taxes on the 3,441 square foot area due to the
incorrect legal description. Ms. Wilson has formally requested that the 3,441 square
foot portion of her property within city limits be de -annexed as it was never intended
to be included in the River Glen Subdivision's annexation.
A copy of the legal description of the River Glen Subdivision, the amended plat of lots
25 and 26 of Greenacres and legal description of the area to be de -annexed are
attached.
Pursuant to title 7, chapter 2, part 48 of Montana Code Annotated, the city council at
their August 4+h meeting passed a resolution of intent to de -annex the land from the
city limits and published a notice in the paper calling for a public hearing at the
September 2, 2008 council meeting.
RECOMMENDATION: Hold the public hearing as advertized and take action on the
request to de -annex would be in order.
FISCAL EFFECTS: No negative impact as the city would be de -annexing land that
was not intended to be annexed in the first place.
TE AT . As suggested by the city council.
Respectfully submitted,
Thomas R. Jentz
Director
