Explanation
AN10-001
BACKGROUND: This ordinance approves the acceptance of certain territory (AN10-01) by the City. The Ohio Revised Code stipulates that the once an annexation has been approved, it must be accepted by the receiving municipality within 180 days (but not sooner than 60 days) of receipt by the City Clerk of the approval notice from the county. Should City Council not take such action, the annexation will not take place. This petition was filed with Franklin County on June 14, 2010. City Council approved a service ordinance addressing the site on June 28, 2010. Franklin County approved the annexation on July 27, 2010 and the City Clerk received notice on August 4, 2010.
FISCAL IMPACT: No funding is required for this legislation. Provision of municipal services does represent cost to the City; however the annexation of land also has the potential to create revenue to the city.
