A RESOLUTION of the City Council of the
City of Kent, Washington, making a limited
exception to the moratorium imposed by
Resolution No. 1275 on the City's extension
of sewer and water services for develop-
ment purposes to property located outside
of the City's corporate limits.
WHEREAS, the Growth Management Act requires King County
to consult with the City of Kent to designate the location of the
City's "urban growth areas," beyond which annexation by the City
may not occur (RCW 36.70A.ll0); and
WHEREAS, although this process is not complete, King
County has preliminarily identified and designated "'interim' urban
growth areas;" and
WHEREAS, the City has also identified and designated
areas outside of its corporate limits that lie within the city's
potential "sphere of annexation," and overlay the County's
"'interim' urban growth areas;"
WHEREAS, Resolution No. 1275 imposed a moratorium on the
City's extension of water and sewer services to property outside of
the City's corporate limits for development purposes because, at
the time of adoption of that resolution, the City had no clear
direction on where the County would place the boundaries of the
urban growth areas; NOW, THEREFORE,
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT, WASHINGTON, DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Effective immediately, the City of Kent will
accept applications from property owners for the extensions of
water andjor sewer service for the purpose of development,
platting, short platting and/or rezoning, to any property located
outside of the City's corporate limits under the following limited
circumstances:
A. The property which will receive the water or sewer
service must be located within the area designated by the County to
be the interim urban growth area for the City of Kent; and
B. The property which will receive the water or sewer
service must be located within the area designated by the City of
Kent to be within its potential sphere of interest for annexation;
and
c. The owners of the property which will receive the
water or sewer service shall have submitted a ten percent (10%)
petition for annexation to the City prior to the time the
application for utility extension is made and further, such owners
must be included in an area that has, by agreement, at least sixty
percent (60%) support for the proposed annexation by the City of
Kent under terms and conditions established by the Public Works
Department, consistent with Kent City Code Chapter 4.22.
Section 2. The moratorium imposed on water and sewer
services in Resolution 1275 for circumstances and property not
described in Section 1 above shall remain in effect until such time
as the "urban growth areas" are designated by King County, and any
2
appeals of the City therefrom are resolved, pursuant to RCW
36.70A.ll0.
