Title
AN ORDINANCE ANNEXING TO THE CITY OF COMMERCE CITY CERTAIN CONTIGUOUS UNINCORPORATED AND MUNICIPALLY-OWNED TERRITORY DESCRIBED IN EXHIBIT “A” GENERALLY LOCATED ALONG THE HIGHWAY 2 RIGHT-OF-WAY BETWEEN EAST 96TH AVENUE, AND EAST 104TH AVENUE.
Body
Summary and Background Information:
The City of Commerce City is requesting approval for the annexation of 0.69 acres that consists of one portion of the Highway 2 right-of-way between E 96th Avenue, and E 104th Avenue. The subject property will be utilized as additional right-of-way for the city’s expansion of Highway 2 from two lanes to four lanes. Two additional annexations (AN-241-17 and AN-242-17) are being processed concurrently with this request, in order to meet Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS) contiguity requirements for annexations. The subject property is currently designated as right-of way.
The City of Commerce City does not assign zoning designations to right-of-way, therefore there will be no associated zoning case with this annexation. As this is a city owned property and city initiated annexation, no annexation petition will be required as part of this request.
