Yl p�TrEOF BOOKST ANS 11 I I b�e 9 ; 3 CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT 1126 East State Road 434 Winter Springs,Florida 32708 1959 Annexation Report — 310 Wagner Point This is a voluntary annexation being requested by the City of Winter Springs, as owner of the real property located at 310 Wagner Point. This voluntary annexation is being processed pursuant to Section 171.044, Florida Statutes. This report establishes that the proposed annexation of 310 Wagner Point located north of State Road 434 and west of Central Winds Park meets the requirements for annexation as outlined in Chapter 171 of the Florida Statutes. The subject property consists of approximately 1.04 acres of land with no existing structures. There are no structures, nor any registered electors living on the subject property. Annexation of this property furthers the State of Florida policy to eliminate enclaves. Annexation of this property also furthers the 1987 Interlocal Agreement between the City of Winter Springs and Seminole County which identified this enclave as an"area of concern", to be encouraged to annex into the City. Hence, Seminole County has agreed to encourage and support annexation of the subject property into the corporate boundaries of the City of Winter Springs. Annexation of this property is also consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan,FLU Objective 1.8:Annexation. The City shall pursue a policy of annexation which will provide for the most efficient use ofpublic facilities and services, eliminate areas ofjurisdictional problems, and provide for sound growth and development of the City and surrounding area. Subsequent policies falling under Objective 1.8 are`'ulso relevant, in addition to the City's Code of Ordinances, section 2.03 regarding annexation procedures. Introduction The subject property considered in this study is located in an unincorporated Seminole County enclave, in the area north of State Road 434. (See Exhibit 1 — Location Map.) The property's boundaries are surrounded by the City of Winter Springs with an exception of the north boundary which is Seminole County. The subject property is in Seminole County Commission District 92, which is currently represented by Commissioner Jay Zembower. If annexed into the City of Winter Springs the area will be included in City Commission District 95, which is now represented by City Commissioner TiAnna Hale. The development pattern within and surrounding the subject property is conflicted with several different zoning designations. On the right boundary is Central Winds Park zoned TC-CP (Town Center— Civil Public), on the south border the adjacent property is DOT right of way which has no zoning designation. South of the right of way is a large C-2 parcel. On the west border, the adjacent property is also zoned C-2. 141 CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT 1126 East State Road 434 Winter Springs,Florida 32708 1959 The subject property is zoned with Seminole County's designation of A-1 and with its allowable uses,will seamlessly transition into the city's Town Center—Civil Public zoning designation. The anticipated use as a park and recreational area is compatible with the northern Seminole County A-1 zoned property per Sec. 30.122 (k) and will also be harmonious with the surrounding Winter Springs property zoning designations. The subject property is expected to develop as an extension of Central Winds Park which will remain consistent with the overall intended use for the surrounding area. The subject property is contiguous to existing city boundaries and is not a part of another incorporated municipality, but rather is part of an unincorporated County enclave. The subject property is urban in character and is currently being used for urban purposes with its entire external boundary adjacent to areas developed for similar residential and recreational purposes. Therefore, the subject property meets the criteria set forth in subsection 171.043 of the Florida Statutes, entitled, "Character of the Area to be Annexed'= . Current and Proposed Future La!W:Use and Z06M2 Following annexation, the City of W'Vf-.w 'springs will initiate a comprehensive plan amendment ....... ....... to assign the appropriate City future lai ;;us ' ignation for the annexed property.
