QUESTION AND ANSWER PERIOD: Councilman Gray answered a question that had been presented on what the people would gain by the annexation of this land. Mr. Gray advised that the City gains control of the property outside of our City Limits. Presently, the only control we have is under the Subdivision Ordinance, when land is divided. This would raise the standards of development in this area since all City codes would have to be complied with. It would also help support the volunteer organizations that go out of the City Limits that are presently being funded through the City's budget. Councilman Bost stated that it was cost effective to annex before too much development has started since developers inside of the City are required to install improvements at their expense. In answer to the question posed on maintenance of the streets, City Manager Wicker stated that the Service Plan stated that these would be maintained by the City Street Depart- ment in accordance with its regular maintenance program. In answer to the question about when water and sewer would be brought to the area, Council- man Lentz advised that installation of the water and sewer lines construction would start long before the two and one-half year period.
