GENERAL INFORMATION:
DATE: Tuesday, August 09, 2011 REFERENCE NO.: **C-25092
LOG NAME: 065030 DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS 8-11
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of Development Agreements in Lieu of Annexation with Multiple Property Owners for Property
Located Generally West of Old FM156 and South of SH114 (COUNCIL DISTRICT 2)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of a development agreement between the City
and multiple property owners for the application of development standards in lieu of annexation for property
located generally west of Old FM156 and south of SH114 in unincorporated Denton County.
DISCUSSION:
State law requires a municipality to offer development agreements in lieu of annexation to property owners
who maintain a current agricultural tax exemption on property considered for annexatlon. If a development
agreement is signed, the property will retain its extraterritorial jurisdiction status until it loses its agricultural
exemption or the development agreement expires, whichever comes first.
The five-year annexation program identifies an area for annexation consideration this year where property
owners have opted for development agreements in lieu of annexation, Area 73. Approximately 1,056 acres of
land in Area 73 qualify for the development agreement in lieu of annexation, as shown on Exhibit A. The owners
of:these properties have signed their respective agreements.
The development agreements will provide for the enforcement of development regulations including: zoning
and subdivision ordinances in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan, municipal building, mechanical,
plumbing, residential, energy and fire codes, building permit requirements, minimum building standard codes,
environmental protection/compliance and health codes, prohibitions on septic tanks, gas drilling and production
ordinance, and other City regulations as they currently exist or may be enacted in the future. Additionally, the
owners consent to the jurisdiction of the City's Municipal Court, boards and commissions to enforce City codes
and regulations, as well as prosecuting criminal violations of City regulations. The development agreements
cause the properties to be generally in compliance with development standards within the City limits.
All properties are in the extra-territorial jurisdiction adjacent to COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
