recommendation
The City Commission adopt the proposed ordinance.
 
explanation
This ordinance will annex land into the City of Gainesville that is unincorporated, compact, and contiguous to the current boundaries of the City, and was voluntarily initiated at the request of the City of Gainesville and the State of Florida as the property owners.  The property is within the City of Gainesville reserve area and is located south of Southeast Williston Road, west of the Gainesville-Hawthorne State Trail, north of Tax Parcel Nos. 16287-000-000 and 16286-000-000, and east of the intersection of South Main Street and Southwest Williston Road.
 
The adoption of an annexation ordinance is the final stage in the annexation process under the provisions of the Alachua County Boundary Adjustment Act.  On October 2, 2014, the City Commission received and accepted the petition for voluntary annexation.  On December 18, 2014, the City Commission adopted the Urban Services Report for the area as mandated by the Boundary Adjustment Act as a prerequisite to the adoption of an annexation ordinance.  Because this is a voluntary annexation pursuant to the Boundary Adjustment Act, no referendum is required.
 
CITY ATTORNEY MEMORANDUM
 
This ordinance requires two hearings and will become effective immediately upon adoption.
