Agenda Item Summary:
The applicant has submitted an annexation petition for a 111.31-acre property generally located east of Highway 79 and north of Lamb Road. The property is void of any structural development and is contiguous to the Rapid City municipal boundary. The subject property is located outside the City’s Urban Services Boundary and City sanitary sewer and water services are currently not available for this property. The subject property is currently zoned Heavy Industrial (HI) in Pennington County (PC). The City’s Future Land Use Plan identifies the subject property as appropriate for both Light Industrial (LI) and Heavy Industrial development, which supports the associated Rezone request to change the zoning designation of the property from No Use District to Heavy Industrial District upon successful annexation (File # 25RZ007). The Rapid City Major Street Plan shows a proposed Collector street running across the east side of the subject property, providing a connection from Old Folsom Road to Lamb Road. Access to the subject property must be provided from Old Folsom Road to the north. A No Access Easement is present along Lamb Road on the property to the south. The subject property is located within the Rapid Valley Fire District. Once annexed, the property will be under the jurisdiction of the Rapid City Fire Department. The Rapid Valley Fire District holds outstanding debt that is certified with the City of Rapid City that would enable payment from the City to the Fire District upon annexation pursuant to SDCL 34-31A-35 and Section 3.20 of the Rapid City Municipal Code. The District has requested the City to reimburse the property’s share of outstanding debt in the amount of $3,023.10, in order to prevent the loss of revenue to the Fire District upon annexation. The City may choose to pay this reimbursement. If City Council chooses not to pay this reimbursement, the Fire District may choose to create a special debt district with Pennington County to continue to levy the property’s share of outstanding debt against the property. This proposed annexation is in alignment with the minimum requirements set forth in in South Dakota Codified Law and local ordinances and policies.
