Dec. 22, 1992 155-30625 Farr West adopts declaration Neighboring leaders displeased with plan By RUTH MALAN Standard-Examiner correspondent FARR WEST Despite objections by mayors from neighboring towns and officials from other entities, the city council last week unanimously adopted an Annexation Policy Declaration that includes four areas of unincorporated land. More than two dozen people attended a public hearing on the general policy declaration for annexation to the city. And objections were voiced on nearly all areas. Area One is south of the city limits, roughly bordered by the south city boundary, State Highway 126, 400 North and 1200 West. Area Two is north and east of the city limits, south of 2700 North up to the boundary of the Weber County Industrial Park. Area Three is west of the city limits, approximately 1000 feet west and 150 feet north of 1900 North to the present north boundary of Plain City. Area Four begins at the northwest city limit and extends south Farr West annexation policy declaration to the north boundary of Plain City. Pleasant View Mayor D. Brent Hales told the council he objected to Area Two, which he said was a part of Pleasant View until 1972. "That area was part of Pleasant View until the formulation of the Standard-Examiner industrial park. It was proposed to disconnect to facilitate the management of the industrial park. The planning commission was against the disconnection, but the council, under pressure, went along with it," Hales explained. See ANNEX on 28 Farr West City Council Adopted an annexation policy declaration naming four basic areas in the annexation declaration. Area one Is on the south border of the city; area two is south of 2700 West up to the boundary of the Weber Industrial Park; the third area Is at the Plain City border; the fourth is on the northwest end of the city.

A summary of actions taken by local public agencies on Friday, Jan. 22 Farr West City Council ? Set a public hearing for Feb. 4 at 7 p.m. on an annexation petition by Tramcor trucking company to annex 3.4 acres into the city at approximately 880 North to 950 North on the east side of 2000 West. Annex From 1B A letter has been sent to the Weber County Boundary Commission protesting Farr West's annexation declaration as it relates to Pleasant View, he said. If a property owner petitions for annexation and another entity objects, it is the boundary commission that hears the dispute. "If it goes to any city it should go back to Pleasant View," Hales said of the property. Farr West attorney Chris Shaw said he wanted to allay everyone's concerns and let them know the city is only adopting an annexation policy. "There is no petition to annex any property," Shaw said, "It is not uncommon to have declarations that overlap." Council member Gerlynn Westergard said the council is simply including in the policy land that could be serviced by the Farr West sewer system. Plain City Mayor Scott Jenkins also protested the annexation policy, saying some of the proposed area is already in his city's annexation declaration. Keith Butler, a 27-year member of the Slaterville planning committee, told the council his community has worked hard to preserve its boundaries should it ever incorporate as a city. The area Farr West has put in the declaration is where the commercial growth would be for Slaterville, he said. "That is our commercial area if we ever have a chance of incorporating. You would like to take the heart right out of it," said Butler, "It's nice to be good neighbors, but don't come across the creek." 38
