HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING ON DISTRICT ANNEXATION 83 AS AMENDED BY THE LOCAL AGENCY FORMATION COMMISSION President Dalton opened the public hearing on District Annexation 83 and asked if anyone desired to address the Board on this matter. Mr. Scott Gordon, an attorney representing Mr. and Mrs. Winton Jones, owners of Parcel 83-C, addressed the Board.

Discussion followed wherein Board Members commented that annexation to the District could provide future potential benefits in that when the Treatment Plant reaches its full capacity, the annexed areas will be given preference for service. Mr. Carniato indicated it was his understanding that a resolution of exclusion is not available in this instance and wanted to research this matter prior to Board action on Parcel 83-C.
