In reviewing this Report, Councilman Anderson emphasized that, although growth is inevitable, it is the responsibility of Council and staff to devise a plan whereby the life style of the community can be retained. This plan must insure that costs of development are prorated in an equitable manner so that the burden falls on people moving into the area rather than on existing residents. Councilman Demsher noted that there are a number of questions that must be addressed; i.e., will the City have the ability to pay for services required, particularly with respect to providing sewer and water services.

It was the consensus of Council that the Committee should continue to work with staff and the Planning Commission in the manner outlined in the Report.

The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Fulton opened the Continued Protest Hearing re Enterprise Annex No. 77-10. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavits of Publication - Notice of Protest Hearing Resolution No. 77-181 304 Planning and Community Development Director Harris reviewed his memorandum to Council dated November 3, 1977 concerning the protest received from Neville Gordon. Mr. Gordon has requested that all of his property be excluded from the annexation unless some way can be found to exclude the six -acre parcel on which his home is located. Mr. Harris stated that at the hearing conducted by the Local Agency Formation Commission, Mr. Gordon protested the inclusion of his six acres; however, LAFCO determined that it would be inappropriate to exclude Mr. Gordon's property. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon, who are now divorced, are the principal owners of the privately owned property within the annexing area. The assessed values of the properties within the annexing area total $87,000. Mr. Gordon's interest, based upon the division of property contained in the court order re dissolution, represents an assessed value of $38,725. Council was advised that it has two alternatives; i.e., the protest may be overruled by adoption of a resolution or, if Council desires to amend the boundaries as requested by Mr. Gordon, the matter must be referred back to LAFCO. Mr. Gordon appeared before Council and stated that originally he agreed to the annexation as a favor to Mr. Nash. However, he was assured that if he asked to have the six -acre parcel excluded, con- sideration would be given to the request. His concern is that he cannot meet the requirements of the City with respect to use of his property, which would become a non -conforming use. Jerry Nash, one of the proponents of the annexation, said that Mr. Gordon's statement is correct in that he was advised that considera- tion would be given to excluding the six -acre parcel from the annexa- tion. However, LAFCO was not receptive to the exclusion. Mr. Nash said that he has a subdivision in the area proposed to be annexed which is being served City water, and annexation is vital to assure continued water service.
