The city is considering annexing 26 acres for the development of a new subdivision. Kasey Peterson and his partner are proposing a subdivision in the southeast area of Sterling. The subdivision.would consist of 29 acres, three of which are already within town limits. The developers are requesting that the town annex the remaining 26, The city is considering the plan but called for the road going into the development to be widened to 66 feet. In addition, the planning and zoning committee has been working on the official Sterling Annexation Policy Plan, which wrll be presented to the affected entities on Thursday, Oct. 26. A public town hearing will be held the next day, a change from theoriginal Oct. 24 date. In other town news, Bruce Bown, a representative of the Sterling Irrigation Co., reported to the council that questions concerning the transfer of irrigation water shares to culinary water for properties outside town limits have surfaced. The irrigation company is leaning toward not allowing such transfers. According to city clerk Erica Blood, a Sterling town ordinance states that the town is not required to hook up culinary water on properties outside town limits. Councilwoman Marilyn Lyon presented a resolution to change a city ordinance. The resolution would make it so property outside of town limits would have to meet the following criteria: each parcel would be no less than 1 acre and all expenses for development would be borne by the developer. The council is still working out the resolution details and will discuss it at the next council meeting.
