H COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT September 9, 2013 MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL GREG LARSON, TOWN MANAGER ADOPT RESOLUTION SETTING DATE FOR CONSIDERATION OF REORGANIZATION OF AN UNINHABITED AREA DESIGNATED AS ENGLEWOOD AVENUE NO. 9, APPROXIMATELY ,49 ACRES LOCATED AT 16428 ENGLEWOOD AVENUE. APN 532 -05 -019. FILE #AN13 -002. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution setting date for consideration of reorganization of uninhabited area designated as Englewood Avenue No. 9, approximately .49 acres located at 16428 Englewood Avenue (APN: 532- 05 -019). BACKGROUND: The Town has an agreement with Santa Clara County that requires annexation of any property located within the Town's Urban Services Area boundary and contiguous to a Town boundary or within 300 feet of a Town maintained roadway if the use is intensified. Annexation has been requested in advance of submittal of an Architecture and Site application for a new single - family residence. Section 56757 of the Cortese - Knox - Hertzberg Local Govermnent Reorganization Act of 2000 gives the 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 amnexation is uninhabited and all property owners have consented to the annexation. This first meeting and resolution sets the date for the protest proceeding. Sandy L.
