TO: Mayor Richard C. Irvin
FROM: Emma Field, Associate Planner
DATE: December 11, 2024
SUBJECT:
An Ordinance Annexing Property located at 1115 S State Street to the City of Aurora, pursuant to a Water Service Agreement (City of Aurora - 24-0951 / AU35/1-24.481 - A - EF - Ward 3)
PURPOSE:
To annex the property located at 1115 S State Street into the City of Aurora.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located at 1115 S State and is currently a single family home within unincorporated Kane County. The previous owner, Robert G Cartee, Jr., entered into a Water Service Agreement with the City on October 18, 1994, in order to receive city water. At that time, the property was not contiguous to the City of Aurora.
The Subject property is now contiguous to the City of Aurora municipal boundary to the north; therefore, the proposal is to annex the property pursuant to a Water Service Agreement. The subject property currently has city water and is paying double water rates. As a result of the Annexation, the current property owner will be paying regular city water rates once annexed. The property will be annexed in with R-1 One Family Dwelling District zoning.
DISCUSSION:
The Subject Property is currently a single-family dwelling which is consistent with the City of Aurora comprehensive plan
