Home My WebLink AboutIR 8896INFORMAL REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS To the Mayor and Members of the City Council No. 8896 Page 1 of 1 SUBJECT: OWNER - INITIATED ANNEXATION OF CERTAIN PROPERTY ON N. CROWLEY CLEBURNE ROAD AT CROWLEY ROAD The November 27 City Council agenda will contain an ordinance to approve the annexation of a portion of the enclave identified as area 48 in southwest Fort Worth. The property owner, Crowley Independent School District, has requested annexation. Texas Local Government Code does not require public hearings for owner - initiated annexation. The Crowley ISD site contains 19.9 acres and is the bus maintenance facility for the school district. Attached is a Fiscal Impact Analysis and exhibit map for reference. Crowley ISD's property lies east of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad and a platted residential subdivision within the City of Fort Worth's extraterritorial jurisdiction. Fort Worth city limits directly adjoin the site along the N. Crowley Cleburne Road and Crowley Road rights -of -way. Annexing this site will allow for orderly development of the property's vacant portion and minimization of the existing urban- style development's impacts. Because the property proposed for annexation is part of an enclave, the enclave meets the criteria both for the orderly and efficient provision of services and for municipal service to this site does not negatively impact service provision within the City. No preliminary plats or conceptual plans have been filed for the property at this time. The City PIan 'ommission has recommended "CF" Community Facility zoning for this property. The property will be zoned "AG" Agricultural upon annexation, and the property owner may initiate a zoning change if desired. Staff has conducted a fiscal impact analysis, which indicates the annexation will have a slightly negative impact on the General Fund but would not require any capital improvements to serve the area. Staff has determined that the City is able to provide municipal services upon annexation in accordance with State law, without negatively impacting service provision within the city. Annexation of this site is thus consistent with the City's annexation policy. The annexation, if adopted, will be an addition to Council District 6.

This land is currently taxed as commercial with an absolute government exemption and produces property tax revenue of approximately $0 annually. Based on the projected revenue for this property and operating costs projected from the Police, Code Compliance, Transportation and Public Works, and Public Health and Animal Care and Control Departments, the fiscal impact would be slightly negative to the General Fund. Assuming conditions remain constant, this area is eligible for annexation as an adverse impact, under the Annexation Criteria and Procedure section of the Annexation Policy. Therefore, due to the adverse impact, this development warrants the anticipated cost of City services, assuming current tax rates and no additional development. Water, Sewer, Storm Water, and Solid Waste Funds will not be impacted because those Funds will recover costs from their customers, and revenues will equal expenditures. Additionally, all on-site storm water, water, and wastewater facilities will be at the developer's cost. Therefore, due to the adverse impact of the existing development and the ability of the area to meet the City's criteria for full-purpose annexation, staff recommends that the Crowley ISD tract (AX-07-007) be considered for full-purpose annexation at this time.
