CITY OF WAUKEE, IOWA
CITY COUNCIL MEETING COMMUNICATION
MEETING DATE: July 10, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Public hearing on the annexation of consenting and non-consenting properties
by the City of Waukee, Iowa [Waukee Commons, LC / Barbara Stanzyk]
FORMAT: Public Hearing
SYNOPSIS INCLUDING PRO & CON: Staff has received an application for annexation from
Waukee Commons, LC to annex 79-acres of property located south of 300th
Street and east of T Avenue. In addition to the property owned by Waukee
Commons, LC, approximately 1-acre of property, owned by Barbara Stanzyk
(non-consenting), is being included as part of the annexation. Chapter 368 of
the Iowa Code permits a city to include no more than 20% of the total acreage
of an annexation to be comprised of non-consenting ownership to avoid
creating an island of unincorporated area or to create more uniform
boundaries. If the property owned by Barbara Stanzyk were not to be included
within this annexation, an island of unincorporated area would be created and
not allowed by Iowa Code. The total acreage of the annexation area is
approximately 80-acres. The property owned by Barbara Stanzyk is 1-acre in
area or 1.25% of the total acreage.
Over the past few months, staff have met with Barbara Stanzyk to discuss
annexation into the City and presented the benefits of annexation and what to
expect upon annexation. City staff continues to work with Mrs. Stanzyk on a
pre-annexation agreement and submitting an annexation application.
Staff is recommending proceeding forward with the annexation of the
properties which includes a total of approximately 80-acres.
FISCAL IMPACT INCLUDING COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
COMMISSION/BOARD/COMMITTEE COMMENT:
STAFF REVIEW AND COMMENT: The proposed annexation is consistent with future growth
parameters identified within the Waukee Comprehensive Plan and agreements
that are in place with adjoining municipalities.
RECOMMENDATION: Hold the Public Hearing
