Page 2 _____________________________________________________________________________________ PA25-0001 – Johnson – Request for De-Annexation BACKGROUND: Christine Johnson, the owner of 4264 North Tallahassee Road, makes a formal request for voluntary de-annexation pursuant to Section (§) 171.051, Contraction procedures, Florida Statutes, to de-annex a 17.22-acre parcel from the municipal boundaries of the City of Crystal River. The owner, Christine Johnson, is making this request “… due to the lack of funding available to provide essential municipal services, specifically city water and sewage, which were intended benefits of being within the city limits.” Mrs. Johnson’s complete request letter can be found in Attachment 3. The vacant subject property, located off of North Tallahassee Road, is the most northern parcel under the City’s jurisdiction, located immediately south of the City limit boundary. ANALYSIS: This report analyzes the feasibility of contracting the subject property from the municipal boundaries of the City of Crystal River, consistent with §171.052, Florida Statutes, Criteria for contraction of municipal boundaries. §171.052 states that (1) “Only those areas which do not meet the criteria for annexation in §171.043 may be proposed for exclusion by municipal governing bodies…”. Under §171. 043, areas may be annexed only if lands are: (1) contiguous to the municipality’s boundaries per §171.043 (1), and (2) meet the requirements of either §171.043 (2) or Chapter 171.043 (3). Criteria: §171.043 (1) requires that the total area to be annexed must be contiguous to the municipal boundaries at the time the annexation proceeding is begun and reasonably compact. No part of the area to be annexed shall be included within the boundary of another incorporated municipality. Findings: The subject property meets these criteria for areas to be annexed. Criteria: §171.043 (2) requires that the area to be annexed must be developed for urban purposes1, which is defined as a developed area that meets any of the following: (a) A total resident population equal to at least two persons for each acre of land; or (b) A total resident population that equals at least one person for each acre of land and is subdivided into lots and tracts so that at least 60 percent of the total number of lots and tracts are 1 acre or less in size; or 1 Urban Purposes is also defined in Section 171.031 meaning “...that land is used intensively for residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, and governmental purposes, including any parcels of land retained in their natural state or kept free of development as dedicated greenbelt areas.”

Page 3 _____________________________________________________________________________________ PA25-0001 – Johnson – Request for De-Annexation (c) Is developed with at least 60 percent of total number of lots and tracts in area at the time of annexation that are used for urban purposes, and is subdivided into lots and tracts so that at least 60 percent of the total acreage, not counting the acreage used at the time of annexation for nonresidential urban purposes, consists of lots and tracts 5 acres or less in size. Findings: The proposed contraction area fails to meet the criteria in §171.043 (2) since the Subject Property has a population density of less than 2 persons per acre of land, is not divided into parcels of less than 1 acre in size, and is not divided into parcels 5 acres or less in size or used for urban purposes. Criteria: §171.043 (3) states that in addition to being developed for urban purposes, an area may be included in the land to be annexed, any additional area which does not meet the requirements of subsection (2), if the area either: (a) Lies between the municipal boundary and an area developed for urban purposes, so that the area developed for urban purposes is either not adjacent to the municipal boundary or cannot be served by the municipality without extending services or water or sewer lines through such sparsely developed area; or (b) Is adjacent, on at least 60 percent of its external boundary, to any combination of the municipal boundary and the boundary of an area or areas developed for urban purposes as defined in subsection (2). Findings: The proposed contraction area fails to meet §171.043 (3) since the Subject Property does not lie between the municipal boundary and area developed for urban purposes as defined in §171.043 (2). Criteria: §171.052 states that if the area proposed to be excluded does not meet the criteria of §171.043, but such exclusion would result in a portion of the municipality becoming noncontiguous with the rest of the municipality, then such exclusion shall not be allowed. Findings: Contraction of the Subject Property would not result in creating noncontiguous property within the City. CONCLUSION: The proposed contraction of the Subject Property meets the criteria established by §171.052 for contraction of municipal boundaries since the subject property fails to meet the criteria for annexation in §171.043. The Subject Property fails to meet the criteria outlined in § 171.043 (2). Finally, the contraction of the Subject Property would not result in the creation of non-contiguous areas within the boundaries of the City. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: In accordance with Florida Statutes, the above analysis was conducted and demonstrates that this application meets the criteria for de-annexation.
