Mr. Sherrill was absent.
The purpose of the meeting was to consider a formal petition by H. D. Hale in behal8 of
Owasso Builders and Supply Co. for annexation of lisle Acres, two miles north of the new
water tower.
Mr. Hale presented plats and maps. He reported that Owasso Builders and Suppy Co, are
the owners of record of the above mentioned property. He further resorted that the three
existing home on described property are aware of his petition of annexation.
rZr. troth reported that amore detailed description of the land would b e needed accord-
ing to City Attorney Sawy:r.
Mr. Hale reported, that, at this time, a leagal roadway easment was dedicated to the
County. ~1r. Hale further stated he contemplates changes in platt as to size of lots
which are now 120 ft. by 320 ft., subject to Board's approval.
Mr. Hale reported that he does not plan to curb and sidewalk area. "rie reported that
the existing road in ~iale Acres hmd been approved and accepted by county and that further
roadways would be according to county si.~ecifications. Nir. Hale reported that if mainten-
anc3e bond were required on new roads he would provide it.
NIr. Hale reported that lots would probably b e sold with and without structures on them.
A discussion on construction and pay-back of cost on mater lines follot~~ed. 1~~r. Hale
agreed to a 75 per cent pay-back cyst on lines within the housing area. `There was no
agreement on the two-mile of service line from the water towner to Hale Acres due to the
fact that no compatible price could be reached by the parties. There was a discussion
about tie-ons nn the service line. It was mutually «greeable that individuals would not
be expected to share in cost of line but that new developments would be asked to share
their portion of the .cost. It was mutually agreeable that line would be constructed accord-
ing to the Hoard's approval and that bids would be taken through the city.
Nr. troth said that he would not favor paying interst on the two-mile service line and
that ec.st plus a pre-determined amount would have to be worked out.
A discussion of sewer lines and lagoon system was then entered upon. Nir. Hale suggested
that he would install sewer lines on site. He thought plant should be city financed with
the 75 cents sewer charge being used tc; refund cost of system. He further reported that
the lagoon system would probably be on site and would delete three lots. Lagoon area
would be beautified with a probable one-acre site being used for park and a probable one-
and-a-half acres being dedicated for city use. Nir. troth reported that he felt the
develo,er should take fu-~1 cost of this system since it could not be feasibly connected
to the present town sewer system. It ttiras agreed to pass this portion of discussion at the
present time.
Nir. troth reported that thepresent highway leading to Hale Acres could not be annexed at
this time and it was doubtful whether the new highway right-of-way could be annexed. He
further reported that, if annexed, the highway would become suibject to a.ty maintenance and
the cost would be sizeable to the city.
Minutes continued-Pdovcmber 1 & 4, 1965
A discussion of a c~uiring private rights-of-:ray followed. Mr. troth reported that he did
:.ot feel the town should stand cost of ac wiring these eights-of-way and in fact, no
monetary outlay b y the city would be favorable to him at all.
Mr. troth reported that no legal ~~ction by the Board could be taken ~~ntil the problem of
adjoining the property could be worked out.
Nir. troth suggested that the petition for annexation be revised <,,nd re-submitted to the
Board and upon submission of the corrected petition some action by the Board could
probably be taken, subject to legal aspects of annexation.
Mr. Duncan moved we adjourn at 8;32 p.m. Mr. Foster seconded the motion. Aye , troth,
Large, Duncan, Foster.
