Long Range Planning Manager Angie Mathias reported that the proposed Bradley Annexation site is in the East Plateau Community Planning Area Potential Annexation Area (PAA), and contains single-family homes and vacant property. She noted that the topography of the area has some steep slopes, indicating that the critical area regulations would apply to the area. There are no wetlands, but located nearby there is an unnamed stream that is non- fishbearing and perennial (NP).Additionally, she noted the area would stay within the Issaquah School District, and the only public service change would be the area's fire service because it is currently served by Fire District#25, and if annexed would change to Renton Fire Authority. April 3, 2017 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES Reviewing the site's zoning, Ms. Mathias stated that the area is designated in King County's Comprehensive Plan as Urban Residential Medium (four dwelling units per acre). She reported that the City's Comprehensive Plan pre-zoned the site as R-4 zoning (four dwelling units per net acre) and R-1 zoning (in the steep sloped area) and this zoning would become effective at the time of annexation. Ms. Mathias reported that there are 33 dwellings within the area with an estimated 92 residents. It is estimated there would be 18 additional dwelling units with an estimated 51 more residents, based on the zoning standards over the next 10 years. If annexed, a conservative estimate of the fiscal impacts are that there would be a 3.3%annual cost increase and a 2.5%annual revenue increase. Concluding, Ms. Mathias stated that the proposed annexation is generally consistent with City annexation policies and Boundary Review board objectives, and the City's best interests and general welfare would be served by this annexation.
