PRESENTATIONS FROM THE GALLERY
Mayor Tom Rackers stated that he would like to move up Bill 2002 -58 (under Bills
Introduced) at this time since there is information which citizens present may want to know
early in the meeting. There were no objections to the Mayor's request.
Bill 2002 -58 — Councilman Dan Klindt stated that, since several residents were present
to speak on the issue of rezoning at 2002 Tanner Bridge Road, he understands that the
property owner at that location will be taking his request back through the Planning and
Zoning Commission to make corrections to his request. He suggested the citizens present
tonight regarding this issue may want to make a presentation before that Commission when
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING AUGUST 5, 2002 2
that item comes up. ( *see "Bills Introduced ") Councilman David E. Smith requested that Bill
2002 -58 be withdrawn at this time.
ANNEXATION PRESENTATIONS:
Mr. Jim Aslaksan, 5405 S. Brooks, in the proposed Northwest Annexation Area, made a
presentation and stated his concern about the issue of deer hunting in that area. He stated
that if only archery hunting is allowed, and not firearm hunting, he believes there will be a
problem with overpopulation of deer. He requested that the city review that issue. He also
stated that he is concerned with police and fire response time in such a large area. He is
also concerned with Council representation in newly annexed areas. He suggested that the
Plan of Intent should address these issues in a specific manner.
Mr. Marc Ellinger, 3220 Glenstone Drive, in the proposed Northwest Annexation Area,
stated he had recently provided a list of ten (10) suggestions to the city. He stated that he
believes if those ten items are addressed that the annexation issue is more likely to pass
at the polls when the time comes for the citizens to vote on it. He stated he believes the city
should slow down and work together with all parties involved. He cited sections in the City's
Code that, if annexation passed, would cause many residents in the annexed areas to be
in violation of that Code. Some examples were the city's prohibition of the use of barbed
wire, animal sounds or odors, both of which are directly associated with farms.
Mr. Tom Piper, 2539 Lexington Drive, in the proposed Southwest Annexation area, made
a presentation in opposition to the proposed annexations as Chairman of the Committee
Against Annexation. He distributed copies of his prepared statement to the Council which
contained: sewer lines, buried Three Rivers Electric cables, fire hydrants, police response
time, snow and ice removal, lighting conditions at dangerous intersections. He stated he
also believes the city should slow down the process, and that if the Council votes tonight
to proceed with the process, the Committee Against Annexation will move forward with their
organized opposition efforts.
Mr. Mike Vanderfeltz, 7311 Algoa Road, in the proposed Algoa Annexation Area, stated
he also believes the Plans of Intent should be more specific and gave several examples for
his concerns.
Mr. Len Coffelt, 2015 S. Country Club Drive, who owns eight acres in the proposed
Northwest Annexation Area, made a presentation regarding sewer and electric utilities in
the annexation areas. He distributed a prepared statement which outlined what he believes
are urban solutions to rural wastewater problems.
Mr. Mike Logsdon, 1725 Highway 179, in the proposed Southwest Annexation Area, stated
that he believes the city lacks the ability to provide water for adequate fire protection
services in the annexed areas.
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING AUGUST 5, 2002 3
Mr. John Ellinger, 5003 Henwick Lane, in the proposed Northwest Annexation Area, stated
that he believes if the Plans of Intent are not more specific that the annexation will not be
approved by the voters.
Ms. Donna Brunk, 4110 Liddy Lane, spoke in opposition to the annexations. She stated
that her foremost concern was lack of adequate fire protection in the annexed areas.
Following the presentations, Council Members asked questions of the presenters.
Councilman Clyde Angle stated he was not aware that the date the city planned to go
before the Circuit Court with its Declaratory Judgment in the annexations had been shared
with the Council. Other Council Members stated that the topic had been discussed at
previous meetings and sent to them in information by staff. He stated he believed the
Council should postpone that action.
