WHEREAS, a petition for serial, flagpole annexation of certain unincorporated property, known as the School District RE-3J Annexation No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, & 7 (the “School District RE-3J Annexation”), was filed with the Board of Trustees of the Town of Keenesburg; and
WHEREAS, on March 14, 2016, the Board of Trustees of the Town of Keenesburg held a duly-noticed public hearing to consider this proposed annexation, notice of which hearing was published on January 5 and February 1, 8 and 15, 2016 in the Greeley Tribune; and
WHEREAS, the published notice of public hearing included individual legal descriptions for each of the seven annexations in this serial annexation, and also provided an approximate location of the property being considered for annexation; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with C.R.S. § 31-12-105(1)(e.3), additional mailed notice was provided to property owners abutting County Road 57, north of Highway 52, and Highway 52 between County Road 57 and County Road 59, graphically showing the proposed annexation on a vicinity map that accompanied the letter, and advising such property owners that they had a right to petition the Town for annexation in accordance with the statutory procedures; and
WHEREAS, by Ordinance No. 2016-11, the Board of Trustees of the Town of Keenesburg approved annexation of a 9.411-acre known as the School District RE-3J Annexation No. 6 to the Town of Keenesburg; and
WHEREAS, the Town Engineer thereafter discovered a typographical error in the last call of the legal description for Annexation No. 6 that caused a mis-closure, but did not affect the size or described location of the property; and
WHEREAS, the legal description on Sheet 1 of the map of the School District RE-3J Annexation contained the same typographical error as was in the legal description appended to Ordinance No. 2016-11, but the call shown on Sheet 4 of the map depicting the area of Annexation No. 6 was correct; and
WHEREAS, the Town Engineer has prepared a corrected legal description of Annexation No. 6 and has also prepared a new annexation map for the School District RE-3J Annexation containing the corrected legal description on Sheet 1; and
WHEREAS, the Board finds that the nature of the typographical error is such that the legal description did not erroneously describe the area, nor did it cause the boundary of the property annexed by the Town to be indefinite or uncertain; and
WHEREAS, the Board further finds that no interested person reviewing the notices of the proposed annexation and of the hearing that was held by the Board on the annexation would have reasonably been misled or otherwise not understood what property was proposed for annexation and where such property was located, and that therefore no rights of any person to appear at and participate in the annexation hearing were impacted by the typographical error; and
WHEREAS, the Board desires by this ordinance to replace the legal description in the ordinance approving Annexation No. 6, to acknowledge the corrected annexation map, and to direct Town staff to record this ordinance and corrected map and to take all other actions necessary to effectuate the School District RE-3J Annexation.
Section 1. The annexation to the Town of Keenesburg of the property described in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, and known as the School District RE-3J Annexation No. 6, is hereby approved and ratified with the corrected legal description for the same.
Section 3. This ordinance and the revised map of the School District RE-3J Annexation shall be recorded with the Weld County Clerk and Recorder. Town staff is further authorized and instructed to take all other actions necessary to effectuate such annexation.
