WHEREAS, the City has received an annexation petition from Justin Dodge, representing a
6.99-acre parcel(Parcel E)located at 4514 Hyde Avenue and owned by Hunziker Development Group
LLC; and,
WHEREAS,the property is in Story County on the east side of Hyde Avenue and is immediately
north of Bloomington Court, a subdivision located inside the corporate limits of Ames; and,
WHEREAS, the annexation area includes land used for rural residential purposes, developed
with one single-family home; and,
WHEREAS, this is a 100%voluntary annexation; and,
WHEREAS, the subject property lies within the `Allowable North Growth Area' of the Land
Use Policy Plan and it is also designated `Urban Residential' in the Ames Urban Fringe Plan; and,
WHEREAS, `Parcel E' lies more than two miles from any other city; therefore, no review or
action by the City Development Board is needed; and,
WHEREAS, the existing `Parcel E' is presently served by Xenia Rural Water and there is no
obligation that the property owner disconnects from Xenia for the existing house and may remain a
customer indefinitely; however, if the property owner wishes to connect to City water, they can do so
under the terms that are in place with Xenia at the time they wish to connect; and,
WHEREAS, the property is also on a private septic system and this may continue, although if
the system fails the property owner is obligated to connect to the City sanitary sewer system if the house
lies within 200 feet of a city sanitary sewer main, and currently sewer connection points are more than
200 feet from the house; and,
WHEREAS,although the property is currently served by Xenia,City policy is to only allow for
additional development if a property is served by City water,and if`Parcel E'is further subdivided,any
new parcels/lots would be required to connect to City water services; and,
WHEREAS, an Agreement with the property owner and Xenia would be necessary for this to
occur and a Covenant and Agreement pertaining to Water Service has been provided to the applicant
and it will be signed and returned.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames, Iowa,that
the Covenant and Agreement pertaining to Water Service for 4514 Hyde Avenue is hereby approved.
