Title
Creating Section 15.01(597) of the Madison General Ordinances entitled "City Boundaries" and being part of the chapter entitled "Aldermanic Districts and Wards" annexing to the 18th Aldermanic District the Cherokee Annexation and assigning a temporary zoning classification of A Agriculture District, creating Section 15.02(135) of the Madison General Ordinances to assign the attached property to Ward 135, and amending Sec. 15.03(18) to assign the attached property to the Eighteenth Aldermanic District.
Body
DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS: In April 2007, the City of Madison entered into an Annexation Attachment Agreement with Cherokee Park Development, Inc., under which Cherokee and the City agreed to work cooperatively on a series of annexations that would bring the Cherokee development into the City over a period of years. As provided for in that Agreement, Cherokee has petitioned the City to annex a portion of the Cherokee development. This ordinance therefore annexes land in the Town of Westport pursuant to a petition.
