APN 523 -13 -025. FILE #AN13 -003. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution setting date for consideration of reorganization of uninhabited area designated as Blossom Hill Manor No. 13, approximately .41 acres, located at 16400 Lilac Lane (APN: 523 -13- 025). BACKGROUND: The Town has an agreement with Santa Clara County that requires annexation of any property located within the Town's Urban Service Area boundary and contiguous to a Town boundary or within 300 feet of a Town maintained roadway if the use is intensified. The subject property is contiguous to a Town boundary. Annexation has been requested in conjunction with plans for a remodel and addition to the existing single - family residence on the property. Section 56757 of the Cortese - Knox - Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 gives cities in Santa Clara County the authority to annex territory without application to and hearing by the Santa Clara County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO). The process is initiated by the Town after the property owner files an annexation petition; however, legislation that became effective in 2004 now requires the Town to hold a protest proceeding, even if the area proposed for annexation is uninhabited and all property owners have consented to the annexation. This first meeting and resolution sets the date for the protest proceeding. PREPARED BY: SANDY L.

The property is located on the south side of Lilac Lane, at the interior corner where Orange Blossom Lane and Lilac Lane intersect and in an unincorporated County island. The property is in the Town's Urban Service Area, is contiguous to a Town boundary, and is pre - zoned R -1:8 (single family residential, 8,000 square feet minimum lot size). Annexation will allow Town services to be extended to the property and help fill in an existing County "island." Santa Clara County Planning and the County Library Service Area have been notified in writing of the annexation request. The protest proceeding has been scheduled for April 21, 2014. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS: Annexation of the subject property is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act guidelines, pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3). FISCAL IMPACT: The following fees are assessed by Santa Clara County, LAFCO, and the State Board of Equalization, and have been paid by the petitioner: County Surveyor Map, legal description and guideline checking fee $2,037.00 County Assessor's fee $80.00 LAFCO processing fee $1,154.00 State Board of E ualization fee $300.00 The petitioner also paid an Annexation Fee of $2,875.00 to the Town.
