Description: This City-initiated annexation is for a portion of public right-of-way currently maintained by Marion County which can generally be described as the intersection of Butteville Rd and Parr Rd.  The basic purpose of this annexation action is to allow the County to transfer jurisdictional control of the intersection over to the City.  Once under City control, the City will use financial contributions made by surrounding developments to complete the necessary engineering studies and apply the appropriate infrastructure improvements at this location.  Both the City Council and Marion County Board of County Commissioners have indicated their support for this annexation and jurisdictional transfer. 

For over a decade, the County and City have identified needed safety improvements at this intersection.  As significant development activity has recently been occurring in this area, financial contributions have been conditioned on these developers (some of this money has already been collected) to address safety issues at this intersection.  The exact nature, timing, and degree of safety improvements to be implemented has yet to be finalized.  However, the City and Marion County have determined that it would be most appropriate for the City to control this intersection in order to allow the City to complete this analysis and execute the most effective measures.

The area to be annexed is more specifically located just north of the Interstate 5 (“I-5”) overpass to just south of the intersection with Parr Road and totals 6.13 acres of territory.  The site includes the intersection and a section of Butteville Road up to the Amazon site previously annexed into the UGB and city limits.  The area is entirely within the Urban Growth Boundary.   Technically, the Comprehensive Plan land use map designates the territory as Southwest Industrial Reserve (SWIR); therefore, if the annexation is approved the default zoning district that would be assigned is Southwest Industrial Reserve (”SWIR”).  However, owing to the fact that it is all public right-of-way, there will be no development impacts.
